"The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it, Nor can it be valued in pure gold. "Where then does wisdom come from? And where is the place of understanding? "Thus it is hidden from the eyes of all living And concealed from the birds of the sky. "Abaddon and Death say, 'With our ears we have heard a report of it.'

"And to man He said, 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; And to depart from evil is understanding.'"
