Proverbs 8:1-6
1Does not 1wisdom call, And understanding 2lift up her voice?2On top of 3the heights beside the way, Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;3Beside the 4gates, at the opening to the city, At the entrance of the doors, she cries out:4“To you, O men, I call, And my voice is to the sons of men.5O 56naive ones, understand prudence; And, O 7fools, understand 8wisdom.6Listen, for I will speak 9noble things; And the opening of my lips will reveal 10right things.
