PR-8:1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her
voice?
PR-8:2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in
the places of
the paths.
PR-8:3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at
the coming in at
the doors.
PR-8:4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice [is] to the sons
of man.
PR-8:5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of
an
understanding heart.
PR-8:6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the
opening of my lips
[shall be] right things.
PR-8:7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness [is] an
abomination to
my lips.
PR-8:8 All the words of my mouth [are] in righteousness; [there
is] nothing
froward or perverse in them.
PR-8:9 They [are] all plain to him that understandeth, and
right to them that
find knowledge.
PR-8:10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge
rather than
choice gold.
PR-8:11 For wisdom [is] better than rubies; and all the things
that may be
desired are not to be compared to it.
PR-8:12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of
witty
inventions.
PR-8:13 The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil: pride, and
arrogancy, and the
evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
PR-8:14 Counsel [is] mine, and sound wisdom: I [am]
understanding; I have
strength.
PR-8:15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
PR-8:16 By me princes rule, and nobles, [even] all the judges
of the earth.
PR-8:17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early
shall find me.
PR-8:18 Riches and honour [are] with me; [yea], durable riches
and
righteousness.
PR-8:19 My fruit [is] better than gold, yea, than fine gold;
and my revenue
than choice silver.
PR-8:20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the
paths of
judgment:
PR-8:21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit
substance; and I will
fill their treasures.
PR-8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way,
before his works
of old.
PR-8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or
ever the earth
was.
PR-8:24 When [there were] no depths, I was brought forth; when
[there were]
no fountains abounding with water.
PR-8:25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was
I brought
forth:
PR-8:26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields,
nor the
highest part of the dust of the world.
PR-8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he
set a compass
upon the face of the depth:
PR-8:28 When he established the clouds above: when he
strengthened the
fountains of the deep:
PR-8:29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters
should not pass
his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
PR-8:30 Then I was by him, [as] one brought up [with him]: and
I was daily
[his] delight, rejoicing always before him;
PR-8:31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my
delights [were]
with the sons of men.
PR-8:32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for
blessed [are they
that] keep my ways.
PR-8:33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
PR-8:34 Blessed [is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at
my gates,
waiting at the posts of my doors.
PR-8:35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain
favour of the
LORD.
PR-8:36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:
all they that
hate me love death.
