Job 28:18-20

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ Black corals and crystal will not be mentioned,
and wisdom’s price is more than red corals.
¹⁹ The topaz of Cush cannot be compared with it;
it cannot be bought for pure gold.
²⁰ Indeed,^[a] from where does wisdom come?
And where in the world^[b] is the place of understanding?
