Proverbs 8

1:   Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

2:   She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
3:   She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

4:   Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
5:   O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
6:   Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.

7:   For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8:   All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
9:   They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.

10:   Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11:   For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

12:   I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
13:   The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14:   Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

15:   By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16:   By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

17:   I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

18:   Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19:   My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.

20:   I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

21:   That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.

22:   The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

23:   I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

24:   When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

25:   Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26:   While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

27:   When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

28:   When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29:   When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment:

when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

30:   Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;

31:   Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

32:   Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33:   Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
34:   Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35:   For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
36:   But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
