Proverbs 8:1 Wisdom is calling! Understanding is raising her voice! 2 On the heights along the road, where the paths meet, she is standing; 3 by the gates leading into the city, at the entrances, she cries aloud: 4 "People, I am calling you, raising my voice to all mankind. 5 You who don't direct your lives, understand caution; as for you, you , get some ! 6 "Listen! I will say worthwhile things; when I speak, my words are right. 7 My mouth says what is true, because my lips detest evil. 8 All the words from my mouth are righteous; nothing false or crooked is in them. 9 They are all clear to those who understand and straightforward to those who gain knowledge. 10 Receive my instruction, rather than silver; knowledge, rather than the finest gold. 11 For wisdom is better than pearls; nothing you want with her. 12 "I, wisdom, live together with ; I attain knowledge and discretion. 13 The fear of ADONAI is of evil. I hate pride and arrogance, evil ways and duplicitous speech. 14 Good advice is mine, and common sense; I am insight, power is mine. 15 By me kings reign, and princes make just laws. 32 "Therefore, children, listen to me: are those who keep my ways. 33 Hear instruction, and grow wise; do not refuse it. 34 How happy the person who listens to me, who watches daily at my gates and waits outside my doors. 35 For he who finds me finds life and obtains the favor of ADONAI. 36 But he who misses me harms himself; all who hate me love death."
