Proverbs 8:3

¹ Does not wisdom call out, and understanding raise her voice?

² On the heights overlooking the road, at the crossroads she takes her stand.

Beside the gates to the city, at the entrances she cries out:

⁴ “To you, O men, I call out, and my cry is to the sons of men.

⁵ O simple ones, learn to be shrewd; O fools, gain understanding.
