Proverbs 8:1-4

The Appeal of Wisdom

8:1 Does not wisdom call out?

Does not understanding raise her voice?

8:2 At the top of the elevated places along the way,

at the intersection of the paths she takes her stand;

8:3 beside the gates opening into the city,

at the entrance of the doorways she cries out:

8:4 “To you, O people, I call out,

and my voice calls to all mankind.

Proverbs 8:34

8:34 Blessed is the one who listens to me,

watching at my doors day by day,

waiting beside my doorway.
