But where can wisdom be found? Where does understanding dwell?No mortal comprehends its worth; it cannot be found in the land of the living.The deep says,“ It is not in me”; the sea says,“ It is not with me.”It cannot be bought with the finest gold, nor can its price be weighed out in silver.It cannot be bought with the gold of Ophir, with precious onyx or lapis lazuli.Neither gold nor crystal can compare with it, nor can it be had for jewels of gold.Coral and jasper are not worthy of mention; the price of wisdom is beyond rubies.The topaz of Cush cannot compare with it; it cannot be bought with pure gold.
