"Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares."
— Proverbs 1:20, World English Bible
“Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:”
“ Wisdom crieth aloud in the street; She uttereth her voice in the broad places; ”
“Warning Against Disregarding Wisdom Wisdom calls out in the street, she shouts loudly in the plazas;”
“Wisdom preacheth abroad, she uttereth her voice in the streets:”
“Wisdom is crying out in the street; her voice is loud in the open places;”
“Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:”
For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird:
but these lay wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.
So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain. It takes away the life of its owners.
Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares.
She calls at the head of noisy places. At the entrance of the city gates, she utters her words:
"How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, and fools hate knowledge?
Turn at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.
