12. But where can wisdom be found?Where does understanding dwell?
13. No mortal comprehends its worth;it cannot be found in the land of the living.
14. The deep says, ‘It is not in me’;the sea says, ‘It is not with me.’
15. It cannot be bought with the finest gold,nor can its price be weighed out in silver.
16. It cannot be bought with the gold of Ophir,with precious onyx or lapis lazuli.
