Job 28:15

The Scriptures 1998

Gold is not given for it, nor is silver weighed out as its price.

See the chapter Copy

The deep has said, ‘It is not in me,’ and the sea has said, ‘It is not with me.’

It is not valued in the gold of Ophir, in precious shoham or sapphire.

No mention is made of coral or crystal, for the price of wisdom is above rubies.

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is preferable to silver.

“I love those who love me, And those who earnestly seek me do find me.

“My fruit is better than gold and fine gold, And my increase than choice silver.
