1 Wisdom calls to you like someone shouting;understanding raises her voice.
2 On the hilltops along the roadand at the crossroads, she stands calling.
3 Beside the city gates,at the entrances into the city, she calls out:
4 “Listen, everyone, I’m calling out to you;I am shouting to all people.
5 You who are uneducated, seek wisdom.You who are foolish, get understanding.
6 Listen, because I have important things to say,and what I tell you is right.
7 What I say is true,I refuse to speak evil.
