20_PRO_08_01 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
20_PRO_08_02 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
20_PRO_08_03 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
20_PRO_08_04 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice [is] to the sons of man.
20_PRO_08_05 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
20_PRO_08_06 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips [shall be] right things.
20_PRO_08_07 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness [is] an abomination to my lips.
20_PRO_08_08 All the words of my mouth [are] in righteousness; [there is] nothing froward or perverse in them.
20_PRO_08_09 They [are] all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
20_PRO_08_10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
20_PRO_08_11 For wisdom [is] better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
20_PRO_08_12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
20_PRO_08_13 The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
20_PRO_08_14 Counsel [is] mine, and sound wisdom: I [am] understanding; I have strength.
20_PRO_08_15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
20_PRO_08_16 By me princes rule, and nobles, [even] all the judges of the earth.
20_PRO_08_17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
20_PRO_08_18 Riches and honour [are] with me; [yea], durable riches and righteousness.
20_PRO_08_19 My fruit [is] better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20_PRO_08_20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
20_PRO_08_21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
20_PRO_08_22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
20_PRO_08_23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
20_PRO_08_24 When [there were] no depths, I was brought forth; when [there were] no fountains abounding with water.
20_PRO_08_25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
20_PRO_08_26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
20_PRO_08_27 When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
20_PRO_08_28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
20_PRO_08_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:
20_PRO_08_30 Then I was by him, [as] one brought up [with him]: and I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him;
20_PRO_08_31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights [were] with the sons of men.
20_PRO_08_32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed [are they that] keep my ways.
20_PRO_08_33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
20_PRO_08_34 Blessed [is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
20_PRO_08_35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
20_PRO_08_36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
