Proverbs 16:16

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.

My fruit is better than gold, yes, than fine gold; my yield than choice silver.

Man doesn't know its price; Neither is it found in the land of the living.

Receive my instruction rather than silver; knowledge rather than choice gold.

Therefore I love your commandments more than gold, yes, more than pure gold.

She is more precious than rubies. None of the things you can desire are to be compared to her.

Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding.

For wisdom is a defense, even as money is a defense; but the excellency of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.

For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."
