  • JOB 28:12–19, engwebp

    12“But where will wisdom be found? Where is the place of understanding?

    13Man doesn’t know its price, and it isn’t found in the land of the living.

    14The deep says, ‘It isn’t in me.’ The sea says, ‘It isn’t with me.’

    15It can’t be gotten for gold, neither will silver be weighed for its price.

    16It can’t be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

    17Gold and glass can’t equal it, neither will it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.

    18No mention will be made of coral or of crystal. Yes, the price of wisdom is above rubies.

    19The topaz of Ethiopia will not equal it. It won’t be valued with pure gold.
