Job 28:16

28:16 It cannot be measured out for purchase ¹  with the gold of Ophir,

with precious onyx ²  or sapphires.

Job 31:26

31:26 if I looked at the sun ³  when it was shining,

and the moon advancing as a precious thing,

[28:16]  ¹ tn The word actually means “weighed,” that is, lifted up on the scale and weighed, in order to purchase.

[28:16]  ² tn The exact identification of these stones is uncertain. Many recent English translations, however, have “onyx” and “sapphires.”

[31:26]  ³ tn Heb “light”; but parallel to the moon it is the sun. This section speaks of false worship of the sun and the moon.
