Job 28:15–19

15  It cannot be bought for vgold,

and silver cannot be weighed as its price.

16  It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir,

in precious onyx or sapphire.

17  Gold and glass cannot equal it,

nor can it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.

18  No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal;

the price of wisdom is above pearls.

19  The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it,

nor can it be valued in pure gold.


Psalm 19:10

10  More to be desired are they than igold,

even much fine gold;

jsweeter also than honey

and drippings of the honeycomb.

72  The law of your mouth is better to me

than thousands of qgold and silver pieces.


Psalm 119:127

127  Therefore I love your commandments

above xgold, above fine gold.

13  xBlessed is the one who finds wisdom,

14  for the gain from her is ybetter than gain from zsilver

and her profit better than gold.

15  She is more precious than jewels,

and anothing you desire can compare with her.

and my yield than xchoice silver.


Proverbs 16:16

16  How much better to get wisdom than xgold!

To get yunderstanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
