The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 28 of Job. The poem about wisdom begins by comparing humanity’s ability to extract precious metals from hidden places with its inability to locate wisdom through similar methods. Mining represents human knowledge of creation, while wisdom possesses a depth that cannot be obtained simply through material exploration.

Man bricht einen Schacht von da aus, wo man wohnt; darin hangen und schweben sie als die Vergessenen, da kein Fuß hin tritt, fern von den Menschen.
Brota el torrente de junto al morador, Aguas que el pie había olvidado: Sécanse luego, vanse del hombre.
Abre un pozo lejos de donde habita la gente; en lugares olvidados por el pie, los hombres cuelgan y se balancean, lejos de los demás.
Il creuse un puits loin des lieux habités; Ses pieds ne lui sont plus en aide, Et il est suspendu, balancé, loin des humains.
Ove i torrenti che il piè avea dimenticati scoppiano fuori, E impediscono che niuno vi stia appresso; Poi scemano, e se ne vanno per opera degli uomini.
Abre um poço de mina longe dos homens, em lugares esquecidos do pé; ficando pendentes longe dos homens, oscilam de um lado para outro.
他在無人居住之處開鑿礦穴, 在無足跡之地被遺忘 , 與人遠離,懸空搖擺。
