1 "Surely there is a mine for silver And a place where they refine gold.
2 "Iron is taken from the dust, And copper is smelted from rock.
3 "Man puts an end to darkness, And to the farthest limit he searches out The rock in gloom and deep shadow.
4 "He sinks a shaft far from habitation, Forgotten by the foot; They hang and swing to and fro far from men.
5 "The earth, from it comes food, And underneath it is turned up as fire.
