In context
4 Unto you, O men, I call, and, my voice, is unto the sons of men;
5 Understand, ye simple ones, shrewdness, and, ye dullards understand sense;
6 Hear, for, princely things, will I speak, and the opening of my lips shall be of equity;
7 For, faithfulness, shall my mouth softly utter, but, the abomination of my lips, shall be lawlessness;
8 In righteousness, shall be all the sayings of my mouth, nothing therein, shall be crafty or perverse;
9 All of them, shall be plain, to them who would understand, and just, to such as would gain knowledge.
10 Receive my correction, and not silver, and knowledge, rather than choicest gold.
