13520 Pure gold cannot be given in exchange for it,And silver cannot be weighed out as its price.

13637 Surely it is the spirit in mortal menAnd the breath of the Almighty [that] gives them understanding.
13638 It is not those merely abundant in days that prove wise,Nor those just old that understand judgment.
13646 I shall give in answer my part, even I;I shall declare my knowledge, even I;
13647 For I have become full of words;Spirit has brought pressure upon me in my belly.

26504 At that time the festival of dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was wintertime,
26505 and Jesus was walking in the temple in the colonnade of Sol'o·mon.
26506 Therefore the Jews encircled him and began to say to him: "How long are you to keep our souls in su…
