Doth not wisdomH2451 cryH7121? and understandingH8394 put forthH5414 her voiceH6963?
She standethH5324 in the topH7218 of high placesH4791, by the wayH1870 in the placesH1004 of the pathsH5410.
She criethH7442 atH3027 the gatesH8179, at the entryH6310 of the cityH7176, at the comingH3996 in at the doorsH6607.
Unto you, O menH376, I callH7121; and my voiceH6963 is to the sonsH1121 of manH120.
O ye simpleH6612, understandH995 wisdomH6195: and, ye foolsH3684, be ye of an understandingH995 heartH3820.
HearH8085; for I will speakH1696 of excellent thingsH5057; and the openingH4669 of my lipsH8193 shall be right thingsH4339.
For my mouthH2441 shall speakH1897 truthH571; and wickednessH7562 is an abominationH8441 to my lipsH8193. {an…: Heb. the abomination of my lips}
All the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310 are in righteousnessH6664; there is nothing frowardH6617 or perverseH6141 in them. {froward: Heb. wreathed}
They are all plainH5228 to him that understandethH995, and rightH3477 to them that findH4672 knowledgeH1847.
ReceiveH3947 my instructionH4148, and not silverH3701; and knowledgeH1847 rather than choiceH977 goldH2742.
For wisdomH2451 is betterH2896 than rubiesH6443; and all the things that may be desiredH2656 are not to be comparedH7737 to it.
I wisdomH2451 dwellH7931 with prudenceH6195, and find outH4672 knowledgeH1847 of witty inventionsH4209. {prudence: or, subtilty}
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is to hateH8130 evilH7451: prideH1344, and arrogancyH1347, and the evilH7451 wayH1870, and the frowardH8419 mouthH6310, do I hateH8130.
CounselH6098 is mine, and sound wisdomH8454: I am understandingH998; I have strengthH1369.
By me kingsH4428 reignH4427, and princesH7336 decreeH2710 justiceH6664.
By me princesH8269 ruleH8323, and noblesH5081, even all the judgesH8199 of the earthH776.
I loveH157 them that loveH157 me; and those that seek me earlyH7836 shall findH4672 me.
RichesH6239 and honourH3519 are with me; yea, durableH6276 richesH1952 and righteousnessH6666.
My fruitH6529 is betterH2896 than goldH2742, yea, than fine goldH6337; and my revenueH8393 than choiceH977 silverH3701.
I leadH1980 in the wayH734 of righteousnessH6666, in the midstH8432 of the pathsH5410 of judgmentH4941: {lead: or, walk}
That I may cause those that loveH157 me to inheritH5157 substanceH3426; and I will fillH4390 their treasuresH214.
The LORDH3068 possessedH7069 me in the beginningH7225 of his wayH1870, beforeH6924 his worksH4659 of old.
I was set upH5258 from everlastingH5769, from the beginningH7218, or everH6924 the earthH776 was.
When there were no depthsH8415, I was brought forthH2342; when there were no fountainsH4599 aboundingH3513 with waterH4325.
Before the mountainsH2022 were settledH2883, beforeH6440 the hillsH1389 was I brought forthH2342:
While as yet he had not madeH6213 the earthH776, nor the fieldsH2351, nor the highest partH7218 of the dustH6083 of the worldH8398. {fields: or, open places} {the highest…: or, the chief part}
When he preparedH3559 the heavensH8064, I was there: when he setH2710 a compassH2329 upon the faceH6440 of the depthH8415: {a compass: or, a circle}
When he establishedH553 the cloudsH7834 aboveH4605: when he strengthenedH5810 the fountainsH5869 of the deepH8415:
When he gaveH7760 to the seaH3220 his decreeH2706, that the watersH4325 should not passH5674 his commandmentH6310: when he appointedH2710 the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776:
Then I was by himH681, as one brought upH525 with him: and I was dailyH3117+H3117 his delightH8191, rejoicingH7832 alwaysH6256 beforeH6440 him;
RejoicingH7832 in the habitable partH8398 of his earthH776; and my delightsH8191 were with the sonsH1121 of menH120.
Now therefore hearkenH8085 unto me, O ye childrenH1121: for blessedH835 are they that keepH8104 my waysH1870.
HearH8085 instructionH4148, and be wiseH2449, and refuseH6544 it not.
BlessedH835 is the manH120 that hearethH8085 me, watchingH8245 dailyH3117+H3117 at my gatesH1817, waitingH8104 at the postsH4201 of my doorsH6607.
For whoso findethH4672 me findethH4672+H4672 lifeH2416, and shall obtainH6329 favourH7522 of the LORDH3068. {obtain: Heb. bring forth}
But he that sinnethH2398 against me wrongethH2554 his own soulH5315: all they that hateH8130 me loveH157 deathH4194.

InG1722 himG846 wasG2258 lifeG2222; andG2532 the lifeG2222 wasG2258 the lightG5457 of menG444.
AndG2532 the lightG5457 shinethG5316 inG1722 darknessG4653; andG2532 the darknessG4653 comprehendedG2638 itG846 notG3756. {comprehended: or, did not admit, or, receive}
There wasG1096 a manG444 sentG649 fromG3844 GodG2316, whoseG846 nameG3686 was JohnG2491.

He wasG2258 notG3756 thatG1565 LightG5457, butG235 was sent toG2443 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 that LightG5457.
