“Coral and quartz are unworthy of mention; the price of wisdom is beyond rubies.”
Job 28:18 (BSB)
Context Reading
16It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, in precious onyx or sapphire. 17Neither gold nor crystal can compare to it, nor jewels of fine gold be exchanged for it. 18Coral and quartz are unworthy of mention; the price of wisdom is beyond rubies. 19Topaz from Cush cannot compare to it, nor can it be valued in pure gold. 20From where, then, does wisdom come, and where does understanding dwell?
