Where is wisdom to be ey found?
And knowledge, where does it abound?
For silver there are mines,
and places for refining gold;
2iron from the earth is taken,
copper smelted out of stones.
3Men searched the darkness to its depth,
and in the pitchy gloom for stones they grope;
4they run a shaft down, far from daylight,
they hang below, swinging upon a rope.
5A harvest comes out of the earth below,
when the miner blasts it underground;
6sapphires lie among its stones,
and he picks up lumps of gold;
9he falls to work upon the flinty rocks,
he turns hills up by the roots;
10he drills a channel in the cliff,
11to draw the water off;
10he delves for what is rare,
11and hidden gems he will unbare.
12But where is wisdom to be found?
And knowledge, where does it abound?
7No vulture knows the path to it,
no hawk’s eye ever spies it,
8no proud beast ever paces it,
no lion moves along it;
13not a man knows that path,
in the land of the living none finds it.
18The deep says, ‘Not in me!’
The sea says, ‘Not in me!’
15No solid gold can purchase wisdom,
no silver can be paid for her;
16there is no price for her in gold of Ophir,
in precious beryls or in sapphires;
17gold and glass are no match for her,
jewels of gold are no exchange for her;
18coral and crystal are not to be mentioned;
wisdom is more precious even than rubies;
19the Ethiopian chrysolite is not equal to her,
no weight of gold can be paid down for her.
20Where is wisdom to be found?
And knowledge, where does it abound?
21For she is hid from every living creature,
even from the eyes of a wild bird.
22Death and the underworld declare,
‘We have only heard of her.’
23God knows where she is,
God only is aware of her abode;
24for he saw to the very ends of earth,
he scanned the whole world under heaven,
25when he fixed the forces of the wind,
and measured out the waters,
26when he made rules for the rain,
and paths for the lightning flash;
27he saw wisdom then, and studied her,
worked with her and proved her.
28And he declares to man, ‘For you
to revere me is your wisdom,
to shun evil--that is knowledge!” ’
