Proverbs 3:13

Lighthouse Bible 2006

Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding.

See the chapter Copy

It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.

No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.

The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.

The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding is rather to be chosen than silver!

Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeks and involves himself with all wisdom.

If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures;

They are all plain to him that understands, and right to those who find knowledge.

Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, that we may hear it, and do it?
