job 28:22 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.

job 28:22 "Abaddon and Death say, 'With our ears we have heard a report of it.'

22. That is, the abodes of destruction and of the dead. "Death" put for Sheol (Job 30:23; 26:6; Ps 9:13).
We have [only] heard--the report of her. We have not seen her. In the land of the living (Job 28:13) the workings of Wisdom are seen, though not herself. In the regions of the dead she is only heard of, her actings on nature not being seen (Ec 9:10).

job 28:22 "Abaddon and Death say, 'With our ears we have heard a report of it.'
