And lift up your voice for understanding,

And search for her as for hidden treasures;

And find the knowledge of God.

From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;

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

And we shall walk in His paths.”

And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
