Job 28:3-5

New Living Translation

³ They know how to shine light in the darkness
    and explore the farthest regions of the earth
    as they search in the dark for ore.
⁴ They sink a mine shaft into the earth
    far from where anyone lives.
    They descend on ropes, swinging back and forth.
⁵ Food is grown on the earth above,
    but down below, the earth is melted as by fire.
