Job 28:11-13

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹¹[Man] binds the streams so that they do not trickle [into the mine], and the thing that is hidden he brings forth to light.

¹²But where shall ^[a]Wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?

¹³Man knows not the price of it; neither is it found in the land of the living.

Job 28:12 Wisdom is capitalized as a reminder of its divine implications. Note that the pronouns referring to wisdom are not capitalized. See footnote on Prov. 1:23.
