Proverbs
Chapters 8:3-9
Amplified Bible
3At the gates at the entrance of the town, at the coming in at the doors, she cries out:
4To you, O men, I call, and my voice is directed to the sons of men.
5O you simple and thoughtless ones, understand prudence; you [self-confident] fools, be of an understanding heart. [Isa. 32:6.]
6Hear, for I will speak excellent and princely things; and the opening of my lips shall be for right things.
7For my mouth shall utter truth, and wrongdoing is detestable and loathsome to my lips.
8All the words of my mouth are righteous (upright and in right standing with God); there is nothing contrary to truth or crooked in them.
9They are all plain to him who understands [and opens his heart], and right to those who find knowledge [and live by it].
