Job 28:14-18

14The ocean depths say, “It’s not in me,” while the sea declares, “I don’t have it.”

15Gold cannot be exchanged for it, and silver cannot be weighed out for its price.

16Wisdom cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, in precious onyx or lapis lazuli.

17Gold and glass do not compare with it, and articles of fine gold cannot be exchanged for it.

18Coral and quartz are not worth mentioning. The price of wisdom is beyond pearls.
