Proverbs 8:10
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
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.
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
.
36
But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
