Job 28:23-28

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²³ But God understands the way to wisdom,
and He knows its location.
²⁴ For He looks to the ends of the earth
and sees everything under the heavens.
²⁵ When God fixed the weight of the wind
and limited the water by measure,^(A)
26 when He established a limit^[a] for the rain^(B)
and a path for the lightning,
²⁷ He considered wisdom and evaluated it;
He established it and examined it.
²⁸ He said to mankind,
“The fear of the Lord is this: wisdom.
And to turn from evil is understanding.”^(C)
