In context

1 Is not wisdom crying out, and the voice of knowledge sounding?

2 At the top of the highways, at the meeting of the roads, she takes her place;

3 Where the roads go into the town her cry goes out, at the doorways her voice is loud:

4 I am crying out to you, O men; my voice comes to the sons of men.

5 Become expert in reason, O you simple ones; you foolish ones, take training to heart.

6 Give ear, for my words are true, and my lips are open to give out what is upright.

7 For good faith goes out of my mouth, and false lips are disgusting to me.
