Job 28:28

‘Behold, (A)the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,
And to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”
Job 28:28

Job 28:12-23
New King James Version
12 “But(A) where can wisdom be found?
And where is the place of understanding?
13 Man does not know its (B)value,
Nor is it found in the land of the living.
14 (C)The deep says, ‘It is not in me’;
And the sea says, ‘It is not with me.’
15 It (D)cannot be purchased for gold,
Nor can silver be weighed for its price.
16 It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir,
In precious onyx or sapphire.
17 Neither (E)gold nor crystal can equal it,
Nor can it be exchanged for [a]jewelry of fine gold.
18 No mention shall be made of [b]coral or quartz,
For the price of wisdom is above (F)rubies.
19 The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it,
Nor can it be valued in pure (G)gold.
20 “From(H) where then does wisdom come?
And where is the place of understanding?
21 It is hidden from the eyes of all living,
And concealed from the birds of the [c]air.
22 (I)Destruction[d] and Death say,
‘We have heard a report about it with our ears.’
23 God understands its way,
And He knows its place.
Job 28:12-23
New International Version
12 But where can wisdom be found?(A)
Where does understanding dwell?(B)
13 No mortal comprehends its worth;(C)
it cannot be found in the land of the living.(D)
14 The deep(E) says, “It is not in me”;
the sea(F) says, “It is not with me.”
15 It cannot be bought with the finest gold,
nor can its price be weighed out in silver.(G)
16 It cannot be bought with the gold of Ophir,(H)
with precious onyx or lapis lazuli.(I)
17 Neither gold nor crystal can compare with it,(J)
nor can it be had for jewels of gold.(K)
18 Coral(L) and jasper(M) are not worthy of mention;
the price of wisdom is beyond rubies.(N)
19 The topaz(O) of Cush(P) cannot compare with it;
it cannot be bought with pure gold.(Q)
20 Where then does wisdom come from?
Where does understanding dwell?(R)
21 It is hidden from the eyes of every living thing,
concealed even from the birds in the sky.(S)
22 Destruction[a](T) and Death(U) say,
“Only a rumor of it has reached our ears.”
23 God understands the way to it
and he alone(V) knows where it dwells,(W)
