1. Doth not wisdom cry, And understanding put forth her voice?
2. On the top of high places by the way, Where the paths meet, she standeth;
3. Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, At the coming in at the doors, she crieth aloud:
4. Unto you, O men, I call; And my voice is to the sons of men.
5. O ye simple, understand prudence; And, ye fools, be of an understanding heart.
6. Hear, for I will speak excellent things; And the opening of my lips shall be right things.
