STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 כִּי יֵשׁ לַכֶּסֶף מֹוצָא וּמָקֹום לַזָּהָב יָזֹקּוּ	1 Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it.
2 בַּרְזֶל מֵעָפָר יֻקָּח וְאֶבֶן יָצוּק נְחוּשָׁה	2 Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone.
3 קֵץ ׀ שָׂם לַחֹשֶׁךְ וּלְכָל־תַּכְלִית הוּא חֹוקֵר אֶבֶן אֹפֶל וְצַלְמָוֶת	3 He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.
4 פָּרַץ נַחַל ׀ מֵעִם־גָּר הַנִּשְׁכָּחִים מִנִּי־רָגֶל דַּלּוּ מֵאֱנֹושׁ נָעוּ	4 The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
5 אֶרֶץ מִמֶּנָּה יֵצֵא־לָחֶם וְתַחְתֶּיהָ נֶהְפַּךְ כְּמֹו־אֵשׁ	5 As for the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.
6 מְקֹום־סַפִּיר אֲבָנֶיהָ וְעַפְרֹת זָהָב לֹו	6 The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.
7 נָתִיב לֹא־יְדָעֹו עָיִט וְלֹא זָפַתּוּ עֵין אַיָּה	7 There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen:
8 לֹא־הִדְרִיכֻהוּ בְנֵי־שָׁחַץ לֹא־עָדָה עָלָיו שָׁחַל	8 The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.
9 בַּחַלָּמִישׁ שָׁלַח יָדֹו הָפַךְ מִשֹּׁרֶשׁ הָרִים	9 He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.
10 בַּצּוּרֹות יְאֹרִים בִּקֵּעַ וְכָל־יְקָר רָאֲתָה עֵינֹו	10 He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.
11 מִבְּכִי נְהָרֹות חִבֵּשׁ וְתַעֲלֻמָהּ יֹצִא אֹור׃ פ	11 He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light.
12 וְהַחָכְמָה מֵאַיִן תִּמָּצֵא וְאֵי זֶה מְקֹום בִּינָה	12 But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?
13 לֹא־יָדַע אֱנֹושׁ עֶרְכָּהּ וְלֹא תִמָּצֵא בְּאֶרֶץ הַחַיִּים	13 Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.
14 תְּהֹום אָמַר לֹא בִי־הִיא וְיָם אָמַר אֵין עִמָּדִי	14 The depth saith, It is not in me: and the sea saith, It is not with me.
15 לֹא־יֻתַּן סְגֹור תַּחְתֶּיהָ וְלֹא יִשָּׁקֵל כֶּסֶף מְחִירָהּ	15 It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.
16 לֹא־תְסֻלֶּה בְּכֶתֶם אֹופִיר בְּשֹׁהַם יָקָר וְסַפִּיר	16 It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
17 לֹא־יַעַרְכֶנָּה זָהָב וּזְכֹוכִית וּתְמוּרָתָהּ כְּלִי־פָז	17 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.
18 רָאמֹות וְגָבִישׁ לֹא יִזָּכֵר וּמֶשֶׁךְ חָכְמָה מִפְּנִינִים	18 No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.
19 לֹא־יַעַרְכֶנָּה פִּטְדַת־כּוּשׁ בְּכֶתֶם טָהֹור לֹא תְסֻלֶּה׃ פ	19 The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
20 וְהַחָכְמָה מֵאַיִן תָּבֹוא וְאֵי זֶה מְקֹום בִּינָה	20 Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
21 וְנֶעֶלְמָה מֵעֵינֵי כָל־חָי וּמֵעֹוף הַשָּׁמַיִם נִסְתָּרָה	21 Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.
22 אֲבַדֹּון וָמָוֶת אָמְרוּ בְּאָזְנֵינוּ שָׁמַעְנוּ שִׁמְעָהּ	22 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.
23 אֱלֹהִים הֵבִין דַּרְכָּהּ וְהוּא יָדַע אֶת־מְקֹומָהּ	23 God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
24 כִּי־הוּא לִקְצֹות־הָאָרֶץ יַבִּיט תַּחַת כָּל־הַשָּׁמַיִם יִרְאֶה	24 For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;
25 לַעֲשֹׂות לָרוּחַ מִשְׁקָל וּמַיִם תִּכֵּן בְּמִדָּה	25 To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.
26 בַּעֲשׂתֹו לַמָּטָר חֹק וְדֶרֶךְ לַחֲזִיז קֹלֹות	26 When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:
27 אָז רָאָהּ וַיְסַפְּרָהּ הֱכִינָהּ וְגַם־חֲקָרָהּ	27 Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.
28 וַיֹּאמֶר ׀ לָאָדָם הֵן יִרְאַת אֲדֹנָי הִיא חָכְמָה וְסוּר מֵרָע בִּינָה׃ ס	28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.
