Job 28:3-5

Easy-to-Read Version

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.
⁵ Food grows on the ground above.
    But underground it is different,
    as if everything were melted by fire.
