Job 28:12-15
Christian Standard Bible
12 But where can wisdom(A) be found,
and where is understanding located?
13 No one can know its value,[a]
since it cannot be found in the land of the living.
14 The ocean depths say, “It’s not in me,”
while the sea declares, “I don’t have it.”(B)
15 Gold cannot be exchanged for it,
and silver cannot be weighed out for its price.
