17 Not equal it do gold and crystal, Nor 'is' its exchange a vessel of fine gold.
18 Corals and pearl are not remembered, The acquisition of wisdom 'is' above rubies.
19 Not equal it doth the topaz of Cush, With pure gold it is not valued.
20 And the wisdom -- whence doth it come? And where 'is' this, the place of understanding?
21 It hath been hid from the eyes of all living. And from the fowl of the heavens It hath been hidden.
