Receive My instruction, and not silver; and knowledge, rather than choice gold.
Pure gold cannot be given instead of it, and silver cannot be weighed as its price.
gold and crystal cannot be ranked with it, and not its exchange a vessel of fine gold.
Therefore, I have loved Your commands, more than gold, even fine gold.
I rejoice at Your Word, as one who finds great plunder.
The Law of Your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver.
The tongue of the righteous one is as choice silver; the heart of the wicked ones is but little.
How much better to obtain wisdom than gold! And to obtain understanding is to be chosen above silver.
There is gold and a multitude of gems, but the lips of knowledge are a rare vessel.
Buy the truth, and sell it not, also wisdom, and instruction and understanding.
My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and My increase is better than the best silver.
Wisdom is good with an inheritance; yea, an advantage to those who see the sun.
But Peter said, There is no silver and gold to me, but what I have, this I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, rise up and walk about!
as being grieved, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet enriching many; as having nothing, yet possessing all things.
