"It is not worth making mention of coral and jasper." This implies that wisdom is worth so much more than coral and jasper that there is no need for Job to say anything about them. AT: "I will not bother to mention coral or jasper" or "Coral and jasper are worthless compared to wisdom" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# coral
This is a beautiful, hard substance that grows on ocean reefs. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown]])
# jasper ... rubies ... topaz
These are valuable gemstones.
# The topaz of Cush does not equal it
This implies that wisdom is much more valuable than the finest topaz.
# neither can it be valued in terms of pure gold
