1 I’m just a human like everyone else. I’m a descendant of the first person who was created out of earth. My flesh was molded into shape during the time that I was in my mother’s womb.
2 Over the course of ten months, I took shape from her blood, built up out of a man’s seed and a night of pleasure.
3 When I was born, I gulped in the same air as everyone else. I dropped out onto the same earth that all people share. I let out my first cry that was just like the sound anyone else makes.
4 I was nurtured by snug clothes and good care.
5 No king has ever begun life any differently.
6 There’s only one way into life for everyone, and only one way out as well.
7 Because of this, I prayed, and the ability to reason wisely was given to me. I called out, and Wisdom’s spirit came to me.
