World English Bible (Public Domain)

In context

Before · Job 28:14–15

14The deep says, ‘It isn’t in me.’ The sea says, ‘It isn’t with me.’ 15It can’t be gotten for gold, neither will silver be weighed for its price.

16It can’t be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

After · Job 28:17–18

17Gold and glass can’t equal it, neither will it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold. 18No mention will be made of coral or of crystal. Yes, the price of wisdom is above rubies.
