Job 28:20-28

²⁰From where then does wisdom come,

and where does understanding dwell?

²¹It is hidden from the eyes of every living thing

and concealed from the birds of the air.

²²Abaddon and Death say,

‘We have heard a rumor about it.’

²³But God understands its way,

and He knows its place.

²⁴For He looks to the ends of the earth

and sees everything under the heavens.

²⁵When God fixed the weight of the wind

and measured out the waters,

²⁶when He set a limit for the rain

and a path for the thunderbolt,

²⁷then He looked at wisdom and appraised it;

He established it and searched it out.

²⁸And He said to man, ‘Behold,

the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,

and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”
