Visdommen kalder igen
8 Visdommen kalder, hvem vil høre?
Indsigten råber sit budskab ud.
2 Den står på højdepunkter langs vejen,
stiller sig op ved befærdede gadehjørner.
3 Ved byens porte og på de åbne pladser
kan dens klare stemme høres:
4 „Jeg kalder på alle mennesker,
lyt til mit budskab, hver og én.
5 Forstå dog, hvad visdom er,
tag imod lidt sund fornuft.
6 Jeg har vigtige ting at fortælle jer,
jeg siger, hvad der er ret og rigtigt.
7 Min mund taler altid sandt,
jeg hader alt, hvad der er ondt.
8 Alt, hvad jeg siger, er sandt og godt,
der er intet falsk eller forkert i det.
9 Mine ord er indlysende for de forstandige,
ligetil for dem, der har en smule indsigt.”
10 Sæt større pris på min vejledning end på sølv,
for min undervisning er mere værd end guld.
11 At eje visdom er vigtigere end at eje juveler,
intet kan sammenlignes med den.
12 „Jeg, Visdom, har dømmekraft
foruden indsigt og sund fornuft.
13 Gudsfrygt indebærer at hade det onde.
Jeg hader hovmod og indbildskhed,
løgn og ondsindet sladder.
14 Følg mine gode råd og få fremgang,
indsigt og dømmekraft får du hos mig.
15 Jeg hjælper konger til at regere retfærdigt
og lovgivere til at udstede gode love.
16 Jeg hjælper guvernører til at træffe de rigtige valg,
alle jordens dommere har brug for mig.
17 Jeg kommer til dem, der vil tage imod mig.
De, som oprigtigt søger mig, finder mig.
18 Jeg giver dem rigdom og ære,
vedvarende værdier og gode normer.
19 Den gave, jeg giver, er bedre end det fineste guld,
den er mere værd end det fornemste sølv.
20 Jeg følger sandhedens stier,
vandrer på hæderlighedens veje.
21 De, der følger mig, lider ingen nød,
for jeg fylder deres forrådshuse.
22 Herren skabte mig i begyndelsen
før resten af hans skaberværk.
23 Jeg har min oprindelse i evigheden,
før verdens grundvold blev lagt.
24 Jeg blev dannet før havets dyb,
før kilderne og floderne var til.
25 Jeg var der, før bjergene blev dannet,
og højene blev skabt,
26 før Gud havde frembragt landjorden med dens marker,
før det første stykke jord kom til syne.
27 Da Gud udspændte himlens hvælving,
da han lagde jordens flade på urdybet,
28 da han anbragte skyerne over jorden
og åbnede kilderne under jorden,
29 da han med sit ord satte en grænse for havet,
da han lagde jordens grundvold fast,
30 da var jeg ved hans side som hans arkitekt.
Jeg glædede mig dag for dag,
frydede mig sammen med ham,
31 jublede ved at se den vide jord,
ved at se menneskene blive skabt.”
32 Hør derfor godt efter, min søn,
for du bliver lykkelig ved at følge mit råd.
33 Lyt til mig, så du kan få visdom.
Ignorer ikke visdommen, når den siger:
34 „Velsignede er de, der lytter til mig,
de, der venter ved min dør dag efter dag.
35 De, der tager imod mig, får et godt liv,
for de opnår Guds velvilje.
36 De, der forkaster mig, skader sig selv.
Siger de nej til mig, siger de ja til døden.”

8 Mon ikke Visdommen kalder, løfter Indsigten ikke sin røst? 2 Oppe på Høje ved Vejen, ved Korsveje træder den frem; 3 ved Porte, ved Byens Udgang, ved Dørenes Indgang råber den: 4 Jeg kalder på eder, I Mænd, løfter min Røst til Menneskens Børn. 5 I tankeløse, vind jer dog Klogskab, I Tåber, så få dog Forstand! 6 Hør, thi jeg fører ædel Tale, åbner mine Læber med retvise Ord; 7 ja, Sandhed taler min Gane, gudløse Læber er mig en Gru. 8 Rette er alle Ord af min Mund, intet er falskt eller vrangt; 9 de er alle ligetil for den kloge, retvise for dem der vandt Indsigt 10Tag ved Lære, tag ikke mod Sølv, tag mod Kundskab fremfor udsøgt Guld; 11 thi Visdom er bedre end Perler, ingen Skatte opvejer den 12 Jeg, Visdom, er Klogskabs Nabo og råder over Kundskab og Kløgt. 13 Herrens Frygt er Had til det onde. Jeg hader Hovmod og Stolthed, den onde Vej og den falske Mund. 14 Jeg ejer Råd og Visdom, jeg har Forstand, jeg har Styrke. 15 Ved mig kan Konger styre og Styresmænd give retfærdige Love; 16 ved mig kan Fyrster råde og Stormænd dømme Jorden. 17 Jeg elsker dem, der elsker mig, og de, der søger mig, finder mig. 18 Hos mig er der Rigdom og Ære, ældgammelt Gods og Retfærd. 19 Min Frugt er bedre end Guld og Malme, min Afgrøde bedre end kosteligt Sølv. 20 Jeg vandrer på Retfærds Vej. midt hen ad Rettens Stier 21 for at tildele dem, der elsker mig, Gods og fylde deres Forrådshuse. 22 Mig skabte Herren først blandt sine Værker, i Urtid, førend han skabte andet; 23 jeg blev frembragt i Evigheden, i Begyndelsen, i Jordens tidligste Tider; 24 jeg fødtes, før Verdensdybet var til, før Kilderne, Vandenes Væld, var til; 25 førend Bjergene sænkedes, før Højene fødtes jeg, 26 førend han skabte Jord og Marker, det første af Jordsmonnets Støv. 27 Da han grundfæsted Himlen, var jeg hos ham, da han satte Hvælv over Verdensdybet. 28 Da han fæstede Skyerne oventil og gav Verdensdybets Kilder deres faste Sted, 29 da han satte Havet en Grænse, at Vandene ej skulde bryde hans Lov, da han lagde Jordens Grundvold, 30 da var jeg Fosterbarn hos ham, hans Glæde Dag efter Dag; for hans Åsyn leged jeg altid, 31 leged på hans vide Jord og havde min Glæde af Menneskens Børn. 32 Og nu, I Sønner, hør mig! Vel den, der vogter på mine Veje! 33 Hør på Tugt og bliv vise, lad ikke hånt derom! 34 Lykkelig den, der hører på mig, så han daglig våger ved mine Døre og vogter på mine Dørstolper. 35 Thi den, der ftnder mig; finder Liv og opnår Yndest hos Herren; 36 men den, som mister mig, skader sig selv; enhver, som hader mig, elsker Døden.

Wisdom’s Call
8 Does not wisdom call out?(A)
Does not understanding raise her voice?
2 At the highest point along the way,
where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
3 beside the gate leading into the city,
at the entrance, she cries aloud:(B)
4 “To you, O people, I call out;(C)
I raise my voice to all mankind.
5 You who are simple,(D) gain prudence;(E)
you who are foolish, set your hearts on it.[a]
6 Listen, for I have trustworthy things to say;
I open my lips to speak what is right.
7 My mouth speaks what is true,(F)
for my lips detest wickedness.
8 All the words of my mouth are just;
none of them is crooked or perverse.
9 To the discerning all of them are right;
they are upright to those who have found knowledge.
10 Choose my instruction instead of silver,
knowledge rather than choice gold,(G)
11 for wisdom is more precious(H) than rubies,
and nothing you desire can compare with her.(I)
12 “I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence;
I possess knowledge and discretion.(J)
13 To fear the Lord(K) is to hate evil;(L)
I hate(M) pride and arrogance,
evil behavior and perverse speech.
14 Counsel and sound judgment are mine;
I have insight, I have power.(N)
15 By me kings reign
and rulers(O) issue decrees that are just;
16 by me princes govern,(P)
and nobles—all who rule on earth.[b]
17 I love those who love me,(Q)
and those who seek me find me.(R)
18 With me are riches and honor,(S)
enduring wealth and prosperity.(T)
19 My fruit is better than fine gold;(U)
what I yield surpasses choice silver.(V)
20 I walk in the way of righteousness,(W)
along the paths of justice,
21 bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me
and making their treasuries full.(X)
22 “The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,[c][d]
before his deeds of old;
23 I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
24 When there were no watery depths, I was given birth,
when there were no springs overflowing with water;(Y)
25 before the mountains were settled in place,(Z)
before the hills, I was given birth,(AA)
26 before he made the world or its fields
or any of the dust of the earth.(AB)
27 I was there when he set the heavens in place,(AC)
when he marked out the horizon(AD) on the face of the deep,
28 when he established the clouds above(AE)
and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,(AF)
29 when he gave the sea its boundary(AG)
so the waters would not overstep his command,(AH)
and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.(AI)
30 Then I was constantly[e] at his side.(AJ)
I was filled with delight day after day,
rejoicing always in his presence,
31 rejoicing in his whole world
and delighting in mankind.(AK)
32 “Now then, my children, listen(AL) to me;
blessed are(AM) those who keep my ways.(AN)
33 Listen to my instruction and be wise;
do not disregard it.
34 Blessed are those who listen(AO) to me,
watching daily at my doors,
waiting at my doorway.
35 For those who find me(AP) find life(AQ)
and receive favor from the Lord.(AR)
36 But those who fail to find me harm themselves;(AS)
all who hate me love death.”(AT)

King James Version
8 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord.
36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
