Verse 17 is found in chapter 28 of Job. The poem asks where wisdom can be found and concludes that its value surpasses gold and precious stones. Wisdom cannot be purchased or discovered through wealth. It is finally connected with the fear of the Lord and turning away from evil. This conclusion connects the book’s intellectual mystery with a practical response of reverence and conduct.
