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.
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.
127 Therefore I love your commandments
above xgold, above fine gold.
Blessed Is the One Who Finds Wisdom
13 xBlessed is the one who finds wisdom,
and the one who gets understanding,
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.
10 oTake my pinstruction instead of qsilver,
and knowledge rather than choice gold,
11 for wisdom is rbetter than jewels,
and sall that you may desire cannot compare with her.
19 My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold,
and my yield than xchoice silver.
