1 Does not Wisdom call,and Understanding raise her voice?
2 On the top of the heights along the road,at the crossroads she takes her stand;
3 By the gates at the approaches of the city,in the entryways she cries aloud:
4 “To you, O people, I call;my appeal is to you mortals.
5 You naive ones, gain prudence,you fools, gain sense.
6 Listen! for noble things I speak;my lips proclaim honest words.
