Job 28:24–28 · Berean Standard Bible
24 For He looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens.
25 When God fixed the weight of the wind and measured out the waters,
26 when He set a limit for the rain and a path for the thunderbolt,
27 then He looked at wisdom and appraised it; He established it and searched it out.
28 And He said to man, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”
