13 Wisdom is not to be found among mortals;No one knows its true value.
14 The depths of the oceans and seasSay that wisdom is not found there.
15 It cannot be bought with silver or gold.
16 The finest gold and jewelsCannot equal its value.
17 It is worth more than gold,Than a gold vase or finest glass.
18 The value of wisdom is moreThan coral or crystal or rubies.
19 The finest topaz and the purest goldCannot compare with the value of wisdom.
