Job 28:12-19

The Elusive Nature of True Wisdom

Job 28:12-19
12
"But where can wisdom be found? Where is the source of understanding?
13
No one knows its value, and it can't be found in the land of the living.
14
The deep says, 'It isn't in me,'and the sea says, 'It isn't with me.'
15
It can't be obtained with gold, nor can silver be weighed out to buy it.
16
It can't be purchased with choice gold from Ofir, or with precious onyx or sapphires.
17
Neither gold nor glass can be compared with it; nor can it be exchanged for a bowl of fine gold,
18
let alone coral or crystal; for indeed, the price of wisdom is above that of pearls.
19
It can't be compared with Ethiopian topaz, and it can't be valued with pure gold.
