Job 28:3 in Context — Job 28
1 Il y a pour l’argent une mine d’où on le fait sortir, Et pour l’or un lieu d’où on l’extrait pour l’affiner;
2 Le fer se tire de la poussière, Et la pierre se fond pour produire l’airain.
3 L’homme fait cesser les ténèbres; Il explore, jusque dans les endroits les plus profonds, Les pierres cachées dans l’obscurité et dans l’ombre de la mort.
4 Il creuse un puits loin des lieux habités; Ses pieds ne lui sont plus en aide, Et il est suspendu, balancé, loin des humains.
5 La terre, d’où sort le pain, Est bouleversée dans ses entrailles comme par le feu.
