Proverbs 8: 1 – 12
“Does not wisdom call out?
Does not understanding raise her voice?
At the highest point along the way,
where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
beside the gate leading into the city,
at the entrance, she cries out aloud:
To you, O people, I call out;
I raise my voice to all mankind.
You who are simple, gain prudence;
you who are foolish, set your hearts on it.
Listen, for I have trustworthy things to say;
I open my lips to speak what is right,
My mouth speaks what is true,
for my lips detest wickedness.
All the words of my mouth are just;
none of them is crooked or perverse.
To the discerning all of the are right;
they are upright to those who found
knowledge.
Choose my instruction instead of silver,
knowledge rather than choice gold,
for wisdom is more precious that rubies,
and nothing you desire can compare with her.
I wisdom, dwell together with prudence;
I possess knowledge and discretion. “
