Truly there is a mine for silver, and a place where gold is washed out.

No bird has knowledge of it, and the hawk's eye has never seen it.
He makes a deep mine far away from those living in the light of day; when they go about on the earth, they have no knowledge of those who are under them, who are hanging far from men, twisting from side to side on a cord.
(For all my breath is still in me, and the spirit of God is my life;)
And Job again took up the word and said,
He goes to rest full of wealth, but does so for the last time: on opening his eyes, he sees it there no longer.
Truly, there is no deceit in my lips, and my tongue does not say what is false.
Though he may get silver together like dust, and make ready great stores of clothing;
Job 27
For what is the hope of the sinner when he is cut off, when God takes back his soul?
Let it be far from me! I will certainly not say that you are right! I will come to death before I give up my righteousness.
This is the punishment of the evil-doer from God, and the heritage given to the cruel by the Ruler of all.
The east wind takes him up and he is gone; he is forced violently out of his place.
Let my hater be like the evil man, and let him who comes against me be as the sinner.
By the life of God, who has taken away my right; and of the Ruler of all, who has made my soul bitter;
Men make signs of joy because of him, driving him from his place with sounds of hissing.
I will give you teaching about the hand of God; I will not keep secret from you what is in the mind of the Ruler of all.
Will his cry come to the ears of God when he is in trouble?
When those of his house who are still living come to their end by disease, they are not put into the earth, and their widows are not weeping for them.
He may get them ready, but the upright will put them on, and he who is free from sin will take the silver for a heritage.
The pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words.
To whom have your words been said? and whose spirit came out from you?
By his wind the heavens become bright: by his hand the quickly moving snake was cut through.
See, these are only the outskirts of his ways; and how small is that which comes to our ears about him! But the thunder of his acts of power is outside all knowledge.
By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and his cloud stretched out over it.
By his hand the north is stretched out in space, and the earth is hanging on nothing.
The underworld is uncovered before him, and Destruction has no veil.
By him the waters are shut up in his thick clouds, and the cloud does not give way under them.
By him a circle is marked out on the face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark.
The shades in the underworld are shaking; the waters and those living in them.
