Job 28:20-23
New International Version
20 Where then does wisdom come from?
Where does understanding dwell?(A)
21 It is hidden from the eyes of every living thing,
concealed even from the birds in the sky.(B)
22 Destruction[a](C) and Death(D) say,
“Only a rumor of it has reached our ears.”
23 God understands the way to it
and he alone(E) knows where it dwells,(F)
