"He putteth forth his hand upon the flinty rock; He overturneth the mountains by the roots. "
— Job 28:9, American Standard Version
“He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.”
“He puts forth his hand on the flinty rock, and he overturns the mountains by the roots.”
“On the flinty rock man has set to work with his hand; he has overturned mountains at their bases.”
“He hath stretched forth his hand to the flint, he hath overturned mountains from the roots.”
“Man puts out his hand on the hard rock, overturning mountains by the roots.”
“He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.”
The stones thereof are the place of sapphires, And it hath dust of gold.
That path no bird of prey knoweth, Neither hath the falcon’s eye seen it:
The proud beasts have not trodden it, Nor hath the fierce lion passed thereby.
He putteth forth his hand upon the flinty rock; He overturneth the mountains by the roots.
He cutteth out channels among the rocks; And his eye seeth every precious thing.
He bindeth the streams that they trickle not; And the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light.
But where shall wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?
