Proverbs 8:5-7
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

5 O you simple and thoughtless ones, understand prudence; you [self-confident] fools, be of an understanding heart.(A)

6 Hear, for I will speak excellent and princely things; and the opening of my lips shall be for right things.

7 For my mouth shall utter truth, and wrongdoing is detestable and loathsome to my lips.
