Proverbs 8:19

New Century Version

What I give is better than the finest gold, better than the purest silver.

See the chapter Copy

The words of a good person are like pure silver, but an evil person’s thoughts are worth very little.

Wisdom is worth more than silver; it brings more profit than gold.

Wisdom is like money: they both help. But wisdom is better, because it can save whoever has it.

Choose my teachings instead of silver, and knowledge rather than the finest gold.

Wisdom cannot be bought with gold, and its cost cannot be weighed in silver.

The topaz from Cush cannot compare to wisdom; it cannot be bought with the purest gold.

I do what is right and follow the path of justice.

It is better to get wisdom than gold, and to choose understanding rather than silver!
