Proverbs 8:1-6 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. Doesn’t Wisdom cry outand Understanding shout?

2. Atop the heights along the path,at the crossroads she takes her stand.

3. By the gate before the city,at the entrances she shouts:

4. I cry out to you, people;my voice goes out to all of humanity.

5. Understand skill, you who are naive.Take this to heart, you fools.

6. Listen, for I speak things that are correct;from my lips comes what is right.
