He breaks open a shaft away from where men sojourn, [paths] forgotten by the foot. They hang afar from men; they swing to and fro. As for the earth, out of it comes bread, and underneath it is turned up as it were by fire.

It cannot be gotten for gold, nor shall silver be weighed for the price of it. It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire. Gold and glass cannot equal it, nor shall it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold. read more.
No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal. Yea, the price of wisdom is above rubies. The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, nor shall it be valued with pure gold.
