Proverbs 8
1 ¿ Not wisdom does she call out and understanding does she give forth? voice her.
Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding give forth her voice?
2 At [the] top of [the] heights on [the] way between [the] pathways she stations herself.
On the top of high places by the way, at the cross-paths she taketh her stand.
3 To [the] side of [the] gates to [the] opening of [the] town [the] entrance of [the] doorways they cry aloud.
Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors, she crieth aloud.
4 To you O people I call and voice my [is] to [the] children of humankind.
Unto you, men, I call, and my voice is to the sons of man:
5 Understand O naive people prudence and O fools understand heart.
O ye simple, understand prudence; and ye foolish, understand sense.
6 Listen for princely things I will speak and [the] utterance of lips my [will be] uprightness.
Hear, for I will speak excellent things, and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For truth it will utter palate my and [is] an abomination of lips my wickedness.
For my palate shall meditate truth, and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 [are] Righteousness all [the] words of mouth my there not among them [is] a twisted [thing] and a distorted [thing].
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing tortuous or perverse in them.
9 All of them [are] right to the discerning [person] and upright to [those who] find knowledge.
They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Take discipline my and may not [you take] silver and knowledge more than gold chosen.
Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold:
11 For [is] good wisdom more than jewels and all pleasures not they compare with it.
for wisdom is better than rubies, and all the things that may be desired are not equal to it.
12 I wisdom I dwell prudence and knowledge of discretion I find.
I wisdom dwell [with] prudence, and find the knowledge [which cometh] of reflection.
13 [the] fear of Yahweh [is] to hate evil pride and arrogance - and a way evil and a mouth of perversities I hate.
The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil; pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth do I hate.
14 [belong] to Me counsel and sound wisdom I [am] understanding [belongs] to me strength.
Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am intelligence; I have strength.
15 By me kings they reign and rulers they enact righteousness.
By me kings reign, and rulers make just decrees;
16 By me princes they rule and noble [people] all judges of (righteousness. *L(H)*)
by me princes rule, and nobles, all the judges of the earth.
17 I ([those who] love me *Q(K)*) I love and [those who] earnestly seek me they find me.
I love those that love me; and they that seek me early shall find me.
18 Wealth and honor [are] with me wealth enduring and righteousness.
Riches and honour are with me; durable wealth and righteousness.
19 [is] good Fruit my more than gold and more than pure gold and gain my more than silver chosen.
My fruit is better than fine gold, yea, than pure gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 In [the] path of righteousness I walk in [the] midst of [the] pathways of justice.
I walk in the path of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21 To give as an inheritance [those who] love me - substance and treasuries their I fill.
that I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasuries.
22 Yahweh he created me [the] beginning of way his [the] beginning of works his from then.
Jehovah possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 From long ago I was installed from [the] beginning from [the] beginnings of [the] earth.
I was set up from eternity, from the beginning, before the earth was.
24 When there not [were] [the] deeps I was brought forth when there not [were] springs abounding of water.
When there were no depths, I was brought forth, when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before mountains they were planted before [the] hills I was brought forth.
Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth;
26 Until not he had made [the] earth and [the] open places and [the] first of [the] dusts of [the] world.
while as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the beginning of the dust of the world.
27 When established he [the] heavens [was] there I when marked out he a circle on [the] surface of [the] deep.
When he prepared the heavens I was there; when he ordained the circle upon the face of the deep;
28 When made firm he [the] clouds above when became strong [the] springs of [the] deep.
when he established the skies above, when the fountains of the deep became strong;
29 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.
when he imposed on the sea his decree that the waters should not pass his commandment, when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 And I was beside him an artisan and I was delight day - day playing before him at every time.
then I was by him [his] nursling, and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Playing in [the] world of earth his and delight my [were] with [the] children of humankind.
rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth, and my delights [were] with the sons of men.
32 And therefore O children listen to me and how blessed! [are those who] ways my they observe.
And now, sons, hearken unto me, and blessed are they that keep my ways:
33 Listen to correction and act wisely and may not you neglect [it].
hear instruction and be wise, and refuse it not.
34 How blessed! [is] a person [who] listens to me by keeping watch at doors my day - day by watching [the] doorposts of doorways my.
Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For [one who] finds me (he finds *Q(K)*) life and he obtained favor from Yahweh.
For whoso findeth me findeth life, and obtaineth favour of Jehovah;
36 And [one who] misses me [is] doing wrong to self his all [those who] hate me they love death.
but he that sinneth against me doeth violence to his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
