In context
3 At the side of the gates, at the mouth of the city, The entrance of the openings, she crieth aloud,
4 `Unto you, O men, I call, And my voice is unto the sons of men.
5 Understand, ye simple ones, prudence, And ye fools, understand the heart,
6 Hearken, for noble things I speak, And the opening of my lips is uprightness.
7 For truth doth my mouth utter, And an abomination to my lips is wickedness.
8 In righteousness are all the sayings of my mouth, Nothing in them is froward and perverse.
9 All of them are plain to the intelligent, And upright to those finding knowledge.
