Proverbs 8:1-11

The Value of Wisdom

Proverbs 8:1-11
1
Doth not wisdom cry aloud, and prudence put forth her voice?
2
Standing in the top of the highest places by the way, in the midst of the paths,
3
Beside the gates of the city, in the very doors she speaketh, saying:
4
O ye men, to you I call, and my voice is to the sons of men.
5
O little ones understand subtlety, and ye unwise, take notice.
6
Hear, for I will speak of great things: and my lips shall be opened to preach right things.
7
My mouth shall meditate truth, and my lips shall hate wickedness.
8
All my words are just, there is nothing wicked, nor perverse in them.
9
They are right to them that understand, and just to them that find knowledge.
10
Receive my instruction, and not money: choose knowledge rather than gold.
11
For wisdom is better than all the most precious things: and whatsoever may be desired cannot be compared to it.
