The finest topaz and the purest gold Cannot compare with the value of wisdom.

They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.

The law that you gave means more to me than all the money in the world.

"I am Wisdom, I am better than jewels; nothing you want can compare with me.

I have riches and honor to give, prosperity and success.

What you get from me is better than the finest gold, better than the purest silver.

It is better---much better---to have wisdom and knowledge than gold and silver.

No living creature can see it, Not even a bird in flight.
