3:21 to those who wait for death that does not come,
and search for it
more than for hidden treasures,
6:3 But because it is heavier than the sand of the sea,
that is why my words have been wild.
7:6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle
and they come to an end without hope.
8:12 While they are still beginning to flower
and not ripe for cutting,
they can wither away
faster than any grass!
11:17 And life will be brighter than the noonday;
though there be darkness,
it will be like the morning.
15:10 The gray-haired and the aged are on our side,
men far older than your father.
28:18 Of coral and jasper no mention will be made;
the price of wisdom is more than pearls.
33:12 Now in this, you are not right – I answer you,
for God is greater than a human being.
