Job 28:2-4

Easy-to-Read Version

² Iron is dug out of the ground,
    and copper is melted out of the rocks.
³ Miners carry lights deep into caves
    to search for these rocks in the deepest darkness.
⁴ Far from where people live, they dig deep into the ground,
    down where no one else has been before.
    There they work all alone, hanging from ropes.
