Job 28:18-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 28
18
Coral and crystal are not to be mentioned;
And the acquisition of wisdom is more
valuable
than pearls.
19
The topaz of Cush cannot equal it,
Nor can it be valued in pure gold.
20
Where then does wisdom come from?
And where is this place of understanding?
21
It is hidden from the eyes of every living
creature,
And concealed from the birds of the sky.
22
Abaddon and Death say,
‘With our ears we have heard a report of it.’
23
'God understands its way,
And He knows its place.
24
For He looks to the ends of the earth;
He sees everything under the heavens.
King James Version
Chapter 28
18
No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.
19
The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
20
Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
21
Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.
22
Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.
23
God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
24
For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;
Christian Standard Bible

Topaz from Cush cannot compare with it,
and it cannot be valued in pure gold.
20
Where then does wisdom come from,
and where is understanding located?
21
It is hidden from the eyes of every living thing
and concealed from the birds of the sky.
22
Abaddon and Death say,
"We have heard news of it with our ears."
23
But God understands the way to wisdom,
and he knows its location.
24
For he looks to the ends of the earth
and sees everything under the heavens.

It’s worth more than the purest gold.

Where can they find understanding?
21
It is hidden from the eyes of all humanity.
Even the sharp-eyed birds in the sky cannot discover it.
22
Destruction and Death say,
‘We’ve heard only rumors of where wisdom can be found.’
23
'God alone understands the way to wisdom;
he knows where it can be found,
24
for he looks throughout the whole earth
and sees everything under the heavens.
