Proverbs 1:21-23
New King James Version

21 She cries out in the [a]chief concourses,
At the openings of the gates in the city
She speaks her words:
22 “How long, you [b]simple ones, will you love [c]simplicity?
For scorners delight in their scorning,
And fools hate knowledge.
23 Turn at my rebuke;
Surely (A)I will pour out my spirit on you;
I will make my words known to you.
