Proverbs 8:5-9 American Standard Version (ASV)

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.

7. For my mouth shall utter truth; And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

8. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing crooked or perverse in them.

9. They are all plain to him that understandeth, And right to them that find knowledge.
