Mishle 8:5-7
Orthodox Jewish Bible

5 O ye simple ones, understand armah (prudence); and, ye kesilim, understand in your lev.

6 Hear; for I will speak negidim (noble things, worthy [words]); and the opening of my sfatayim (lips) shall be meisharim (upright, fair things).

7 For my mouth shall speak emes; and resha is an abomination to my sfatayim (lips).
