How much better to get wisdom than gold, to get insight rather than silver!

Get wisdom— how much better it is than gold! And get understanding— it is preferable to silver.

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

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

My fruit is better than the purest gold, and what I produce is better than choice silver.

Receive my instruction rather than silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold.For wisdom is better than rubies, and desirable things cannot be compared to her.

She is more precious than rubies, and none of the things you desire can compare with her.Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.Her ways are very pleasant, and all her paths are peaceful.She is like a tree of life to those who obtain her, and everyone who grasps hold of her will be blessed.

For wisdom provides protection, just as money provides protection. But the advantage of knowledge is this: Wisdom preserves the life of its owner.

For what does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what can a person give in exchange for his life?

Mankind does not know its place; it cannot be found in the land of the living.The deep says,‘ It is not with me.’ And the sea says,‘ It is not with me.’Fine gold cannot be given in exchange for it, nor can its price be weighed out in silver.It cannot be measured out for purchase with the gold of Ophir, with precious onyx or sapphires.Neither gold nor crystal can be compared with it, nor can a vase of gold match its worth.Of coral and jasper no mention will be made; the price of wisdom is more than pearls.The topaz of Cush cannot be compared with it; it cannot be purchased with pure gold.“ But wisdom– where does it come from? Where is the place of understanding?For it has been hidden from the eyes of every living creature, and from the birds of the sky it has been concealed.Destruction and Death say,‘ With our ears we have heard a rumor about where it can be found.’God understands the way to it, and he alone knows its place.For he looks to the ends of the earth and observes everything under the heavens.When he made the force of the wind and measured the waters with a gauge.When he imposed a limit for the rain, and a path for the thunderstorm,then he looked at wisdom and assessed its value; he established it and examined it closely.And he said to mankind,‘ The fear of the LORD– that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”

So it is with the one who stores up riches for himself, but is not rich toward God.”

For this reason I love your commands more than gold, even purest gold.

Wisdom is supreme– so acquire wisdom, and whatever you acquire, acquire understanding!
