King James Version with Apocrypha
"No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies."
— Job 28:18, King James Version with Apocrypha
“No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.”
“No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal: Yea, the price of wisdom is above rubies. ”
“No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal. Yes, the price of wisdom is above rubies.”
“Of coral and jasper no mention will be made; the price of wisdom is more than pearls.”
“High and eminent things shall not be mentioned in comparison of it: but wisdom is drawn out of secret places.”
“There is no need to say anything about coral or crystal; and the value of wisdom is greater than that of pearls.”
It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.
It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.
No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.
The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.
