WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.340 Chapter 28 Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they 00:05.340 --> 00:05.800 find it. 00:06.340 --> 00:09.520 Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone. 00:10.360 --> 00:14.040 He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection. 00:15.100 --> 00:17.460 The stones of darkness and the shadow of death. 00:18.100 --> 00:22.160 The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant, even the waters forgotten of 00:22.160 --> 00:22.560 the foot. 00:23.200 --> 00:26.160 They are dried up, they are gone away from men. 00:26.980 --> 00:33.080 As for the earth, out of it cometh bread, and under it is turned up as it were fire. 00:34.260 --> 00:38.700 The stones of it are the place of sapphires, and it hath dust of gold. 00:39.600 --> 00:44.100 There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen. 00:44.940 --> 00:49.500 The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it. 00:50.120 --> 00:54.020 He putteth forth his hand upon the rock, he overturneth the mountains by the roots, 00:54.020 --> 00:58.060 he cutteth out rivers among the rocks, and his eye seeth every precious thing. 00:58.440 --> 01:02.580 He bindeth the floods from overflowing, and the thing that is hid bringeth he 01:02.580 --> 01:03.580 forth to light. 01:04.440 --> 01:06.140 But where shall wisdom be found? 01:06.880 --> 01:09.120 And where is the place of understanding? 01:10.880 --> 01:16.200 Man knoweth not the price thereof, neither is it found in the land of the 01:16.200 --> 01:16.400 living. 01:16.980 --> 01:22.800 The depth sayeth, It is not in me, and the sea sayeth, It is not with me. 01:23.500 --> 01:27.240 It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price 01:27.240 --> 01:27.760 thereof. 01:28.140 --> 01:31.780 It cannot be valued with the gold of ophir, with the precious onyx or the 01:31.780 --> 01:32.300 sapphire. 01:33.220 --> 01:37.160 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it, and the exchange of it shall not be for 01:37.160 --> 01:38.380 jewels of fine gold. 01:39.420 --> 01:44.060 No mention shall be made of coral or of pearls, for the price of wisdom is above 01:44.060 --> 01:44.540 rubies. 01:44.540 --> 01:50.020 The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold. 01:51.220 --> 01:52.660 Whence then cometh wisdom? 01:53.580 --> 01:55.400 And where is the place of understanding? 01:56.860 --> 02:01.700 Seen it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of 02:01.700 --> 02:02.140 the air. 02:03.580 --> 02:08.360 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears. 02:10.360 --> 02:14.400 God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof. 02:15.340 --> 02:18.900 For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth unto the whole heaven, 02:19.600 --> 02:23.460 to make the weight for the winds, and he weigheth the waters by measure. 02:24.320 --> 02:27.660 When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the 02:27.660 --> 02:30.460 thunder, then did he see it and declare it. 02:30.980 --> 02:37.020 He prepared it, yea, and searched it out, and unto man he said, Behold the fear of 02:37.020 --> 02:42.440 the Lord, that is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding.
