Proverbs 8:1-9 ▼

1 Doth not wysdome crye? doth not vnderstanding put foorth her voyce?

2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the place of the pathes:

3 She cryeth at the gates of the citie, at the entrye of the doores:

4 It is you O ye men saith she whom I call, vnto the chyldren of men do I lyft vp my voyce.

5 Take heede vnto knowledge O ye ignoraunt, be ye wise in heart O ye fooles.

6 Geue eare, for I wyll speake of great matters, and open my lippes to tell thinges that be right:

7 For my mouth shall be talking of the trueth, and my lippes abhorre vngodlynesse.

8 All the wordes of my mouth are righteous, there is no frowardnes nor falsehood in them.

9 They are all playne to suche as wyll vnderstande, and right to them that finde knowledge.
