Gold is not given for it, Nor is silver weighed -- its price.Job 28:15 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the BibleIt cannot be gotten for gold - Genuine religion and true happiness are not to be acquired by earthly property. Solomon made gold and silver as plentiful as the stones in Jerusalem, and had all the delights of the sons of men, and yet he was not happy; yea, he had wisdom, was the wisest of men, but he had not the wisdom of which Job speaks here, and therefore, to him, all was vanity and vexation of spirit. If Solomon, as some suppose, was the author of this book, the sentiments expressed here are such as we might expect from this deeply experienced and wise man. Treasury of Scripture Knowledge It cannot be gotten for gold. Heb. Fine gold shall not be given for it Job 28:18 No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies. Proverbs 3:13-15 Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding... Proverbs 8:10,17,19 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold... Proverbs 16:16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver! Job 28:15 Parallel Commentaries
