13 Man does not know its
avalue,
Nor is it found in the land of the living.
14 aThe deep says,
‘It is not in me’;
And the sea says,
‘It is not with me.’
15 It
acannot be purchased for gold,
Nor can silver be weighed
for its price.
16 It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir,
In precious onyx or sapphire.
17 Neither
agold nor crystal can equal it,
Nor can it be exchanged for
1 jewelry of fine gold.
18 No mention shall be made of
1 coral or quartz,
For the price of wisdom
is above
arubies.
19 The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it,
Nor can it be valued in pure
agold.
