Pro Proverbs, chapter Proverbs of Solomon, chapter 8
Does wisdom not call? And understanding give forth her voice? Mat 11:19; 1Co 1:24At the head of high places by the way, || She has stood between the paths, At the side of the gates, at the mouth of the city, || The entrance of the openings, she cries aloud, “To yöu, O men, I call, || And my voice [is] to the sons of men. Understand, yöu simple ones, prudence, || And yöu fools, understand the heart, Psa 92:6Listen, for I speak noble things, || And the opening of my lips [is] uprightness. Mat 7:29For my mouth utters truth, || And wickedness [is] an abomination to my lips. Jhn 8:46All the sayings of my mouth [are] in righteousness, || Nothing in them is contrary and perverse. Psa 12:6All of them [are] plain to the intelligent, || And upright to those finding knowledge. Receive my instruction, and not silver, || And knowledge rather than choice gold. Job 28:15; Pro 3:14For wisdom [is] better than rubies, || Indeed, all delights are not comparable with it. Job 28:16I, wisdom, have dwelt with prudence, || And I find out a knowledge of purposes. Luk 11:49The fear of YHWH [is] to hate evil; Pride, and arrogance, and an evil way, || And a contrary mouth, I have hated. Counsel and substance [are] mine, || I [am] understanding, I have might. By me kings reign, and princes decree righteousness, Gen 49:10; Dan 2:21; Rom 13:1By me chiefs rule, and nobles, || All judges of earth. I love those loving me, || And those seeking me earnestly find me. Wealth and honor [are] with me, || Lasting substance and righteousness. Pro 3:16My fruit [is] better than gold, even fine gold, || And my increase than choice silver. Job 28:17I cause to walk in a path of righteousness, || In midst of paths of judgment, To cause my lovers to inherit substance, || Indeed, I fill their treasures. YHWH possessed me—the beginning of His way, || Before His works since then. Jhn 1:1I was anointed from the age, from the first, || From former states of the earth. In there being no depths, I was brought forth, || In there being no fountains heavy [with] waters, Before mountains were sunk, || Before heights, I was brought forth. Psa 90:2; Psa 110:3While He had not made the earth, and out-places, || And the top of the dusts of the world. In His preparing the heavens I [am] there, || In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep, In His strengthening clouds above, || In His making strong fountains of the deep, Job 26:8; Job 36:29In His setting for the sea its limit, || And the waters do not transgress His command, || In His decreeing the foundations of earth, Job 38:10Then I am near Him, a workman, || And I am a delight—day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times, Jhn 5:20Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, || And my delights [are] with the sons of men. Jhn 1:10And now, yöu sons, listen to me, || Indeed, blessed are they who keep my ways. Psa 119:1; Luk 11:28Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not slight. O the blessedness of the man listening to me, || To watch at my doors day by day, || To watch at the doorposts of my entrance. Mrk 3:20For whoever is finding me, has found life, || And brings out goodwill from YHWH. And whoever is missing me, is wronging his soul, || All hating me have loved death!”
