²⁰ Wisdom calls aloud in the streets,
she raises her voice in public squares.
²¹ She cries out above the commotion.
At the entrances of the city gates, she utters her speech:
²² “How long will you naïve ones love simplicity,
you scoffers delight in scoffing,
and you fools hate knowledge?
²³ You are repulsed at my rebuke.
Behold, I pour out my heart to you.
I will make my words known to you.
