2. On top of the heights beside the way, Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
3. Beside the gates, at the opening to the city, At the entrance of the doors, she cries out:
4. "To you, O men, I call, And my voice is to the sons of men.
5. "O naive ones, understand prudence; And, O fools, understand wisdom.
6. "Listen, for I will speak noble things; And the opening of my lips will reveal right things.
7. "For my mouth will utter truth; And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8. "All the utterances of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing crooked or perverted in them.
