Where there will be bread for you in full measure and you will be in need of nothing; a land where the very stones are iron and from whose hills you may get copper. Verse ConceptsEarth, Description OfBrass

Truly there is a mine for silver, and a place where gold is washed out. Iron is taken out of the earth, and stone is changed into brass by the fire. Man puts an end to the dark, searching out to the farthest limit the stones of the deep places of the dark. read more.
He makes a deep mine far away from those living in the light of day; when they go about on the earth, they have no knowledge of those who are under them, who are hanging far from men, twisting from side to side on a cord. As for the earth, bread comes out of it; but under its face it is turned up as if by fire.

Gold may not be given for it, or a weight of silver in payment for it. It may not be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the onyx of great price, or the sapphire. Gold and glass are not equal to it in price, and it may not be exchanged for jewels of the best gold. read more.
There is no need to say anything about coral or crystal; and the value of wisdom is greater than that of pearls. The topaz of Ethiopia is not equal to it, and it may not be valued with the best gold.
