Proverbs 8
1 Isn't wisdom calling? Isn't understanding raising her voice?
¿ Not wisdom does she call out and understanding does she give forth? voice her.
2 On the top of the hill by the road, she stands up at the crossroads.
At [the] top of [the] heights on [the] way between [the] pathways she stations herself.
3 Beside the gates of the town, right there at the entrance, she cries out:
To [the] side of [the] gates to [the] opening of [the] town [the] entrance of [the] doorways they cry aloud.
4 “I'm calling out to you, everyone! My call is to everyone in the whole world!
To you O people I call and voice my [is] to [the] children of humankind.
5 If you're immature, learn how to grow up. If you're stupid, learn what makes good sense.
Understand O naive people prudence and O fools understand heart.
6 Listen to me because I have valuable things to explain to you.
Listen for princely things I will speak and [the] utterance of lips my [will be] uprightness.
7 I say what's right, because I tell the truth and I hate wickedness in all its forms.
For truth it will utter palate my and [is] an abomination of lips my wickedness.

All of them [are] right to the discerning [person] and upright to [those who] find knowledge.
10 Choose my instruction over silver; choose knowledge over pure gold.
Take discipline my and may not [you take] silver and knowledge more than gold chosen.
11 For wisdom is more valuable than rubies; everything you could ever want just doesn't compare!
For [is] good wisdom more than jewels and all pleasures not they compare with it.
12 I, wisdom, am at home with good decisions. I know how to find knowledge and discernment.
I wisdom I dwell prudence and knowledge of discretion I find.
13 Honoring the Lord means hating evil. So I hate pride and arrogance, wicked behavior and telling lies.
[the] fear of Yahweh [is] to hate evil pride and arrogance - and a way evil and a mouth of perversities I hate.
14 I have advice and good judgment; I know what makes sense, and I have power.
[belong] to Me counsel and sound wisdom I [am] understanding [belongs] to me strength.
15 It's because of me that kings reign, and rulers issue fair decrees.
By me kings they reign and rulers they enact righteousness.
16 It's because of me that leaders and nobles govern—all who rule justly.
By me princes they rule and noble [people] all judges of (righteousness. *L(H)*)
17 I love those who love me, and those who really look for me will find me.
I ([those who] love me *Q(K)*) I love and [those who] earnestly seek me they find me.
18 With me go riches and honor, lasting wealth and prosperity.
Wealth and honor [are] with me wealth enduring and righteousness.
19 The fruit I produce is better than gold, even pure gold, and my harvest is better than even the best silver.
[is] good Fruit my more than gold and more than pure gold and gain my more than silver chosen.
20 I live in a way that's right; I follow the paths of justice.
In [the] path of righteousness I walk in [the] midst of [the] pathways of justice.
21 I grant wealth to those who love me; I fill their treasure storehouses.
To give as an inheritance [those who] love me - substance and treasuries their I fill.
22 The Lord created me first of all; I was made before anything else.
Yahweh he created me [the] beginning of way his [the] beginning of works his from then.
23 I was formed a long time ago, at the first, before the world began.
From long ago I was installed from [the] beginning from [the] beginnings of [the] earth.
24 I was born when there were no ocean depths, when there were no springs pouring out water.
When there not [were] [the] deeps I was brought forth when there not [were] springs abounding of water.
25 I was born before the mountains or the hills had been formed,
Before mountains they were planted before [the] hills I was brought forth.
26 when he hadn't made the earth and its fields or any of the earth's dust.
Until not he had made [the] earth and [the] open places and [the] first of [the] dusts of [the] world.
27 I was there when he placed the heavens in position, when he drew the horizon over the ocean,
When established he [the] heavens [was] there I when marked out he a circle on [the] surface of [the] deep.
28 when he made the clouds in the sky above, when he created the springs of the oceans,
When made firm he [the] clouds above when became strong [the] springs of [the] deep.
29 when he set limits on the sea so that the waters would not go farther than he ordered, and when he laid out the foundations of the earth.
When set he for the sea - limit its and [the] waters not they will transgress mouth his when marked out he [the] foundations of [the] earth.
30 Then I was beside him as a master craftsman. I made him happy every day, and I was always full of joy in his presence.
And I was beside him an artisan and I was delight day - day playing before him at every time.
31 I was so happy in the world he created, celebrating together with human beings.
Playing in [the] world of earth his and delight my [were] with [the] children of humankind.
32 And now, my sons, listen to me, for happy are those who follow my ways.
And therefore O children listen to me and how blessed! [are those who] ways my they observe.
33 Listen to my instruction and be wise—do not reject it.
Listen to correction and act wisely and may not you neglect [it].
34 Happy are those who listen to me, watching for me every day at my doors, waiting at my entrance way.
How blessed! [is] a person [who] listens to me by keeping watch at doors my day - day by watching [the] doorposts of doorways my.
35 For those who find me, find life, and are accepted by the Lord.
For [one who] finds me (he finds *Q(K)*) life and he obtained favor from Yahweh.
36 But those who don't find me hurt themselves; everyone who hates me loves death.”
And [one who] misses me [is] doing wrong to self his all [those who] hate me they love death.
