Job 28:12-19

The Elusive Nature of True Wisdom

Job 28:12-19
12
But where is wisdom to be found, and where is the place of understanding?
13
Man knoweth not the price thereof, neither is it found in the land of them that live in delights.
14
The depth saith: It is not in me: and the sea saith: It is not with me.
15
The finest gold shall not purchase it, neither shall silver be weighed in exchange for it.
16
It shall not be compared with the dyed colours of India, or with the most precious stone sardonyx, or the sapphire.
17
Gold or crystal cannot equal it, neither shall any vessels of gold be changed for it.
18
High and eminent things shall not be mentioned in comparison of it: but wisdom is drawn out of secret places.
19
The topaz of Ethiopia shall not be equal to it, neither shall it be compared to the cleanest dyeing.
