The Price of Wisdom Is Above Pearls

The price of wisdom is above pearls. The topaz of Ethiopia cannot compare with it nor can it be valued in pure gold from where does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding? It is hidden from the eyes of all living and concealed from the birds of the air. God understands the way to it and he knows its place. Do not be afraid of sudden panic or of the ruin of the wicked when it comes.
