'Precious' in the Bible

She is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire compares with her.

because the price of a whore is a loaf of bread, and an adulterous woman stalks a man's precious life.

because wisdom is better than precious gems and nothing you desire can compare to it."

What the righteous person says is like precious silver; the thoughts of the wicked are compared to small things.

There is an abundance of gold and precious stones, but lips of knowledge are a rare jewel.

Precious treasures and oil are found where the wise live, but a foolish man devours them.
