Mankind does not know its place; it cannot be found in the land of the living.The deep says,‘ It is not with me.’ And the sea says,‘ It is not with me.’Fine gold cannot be given in exchange for it, nor can its price be weighed out in silver.It cannot be measured out for purchase with the gold of Ophir, with precious onyx or sapphires.Neither gold nor crystal can be compared with it, nor can a vase of gold match its worth.Of coral and jasper no mention will be made; the price of wisdom is more than pearls.The topaz of Cush cannot be compared with it; it cannot be purchased with pure gold.

Furthermore I am giving you riches, wealth, and honor surpassing that of any king before or after you.”

take my advice and buy gold from me refined by fire so you can become rich! Buy from me white clothing so you can be clothed and your shameful nakedness will not be exposed, and buy eye salve to put on your eyes so you can see!
