Job 28:9 in Context — Job 28

7 A ave de rapina não conhece essa vereda; os olhos do falcão não a viram.

8 Os filhotes de animais ferozes nunca a pisaram, nem o feroz leão passou por ela.

9 [O homem] põe sua mão no rochedo, e revolve os montes desde a raiz.

10 Cortou canais pelas rochas, e seus olhos veem tudo o que é precioso.

11 Ele tapa os rios desde suas nascentes, e faz o oculto sair para a luz.
