11 He prevents the floods from overflowing,and the thing that is hidden he brings forth to light.
12 “But where will wisdom be found?And where is the place of understanding?
13 Man does not know its price,nor is it found in the land of the living.
14 The depth says, ‘It is not in me,’and the sea says, ‘It is not with me.’
15 It cannot be bought for gold,nor can silver be weighed for its price.
16 It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir,with the precious onyx or the sapphire.
17 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it,and it cannot be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.
