The Call of Wisdom
20 aWisdom shouts in the street,
She gives forth her voice in the square;
21 At the head of the noisy streets she calls out;
At the entrance of the gates in the city she utters her sayings:
22 “How long, O asimple ones, will you love simplicity?
And bscoffers delight in scoffing
And fools chate knowledge?
23 Turn to my reproof,
Behold, I will apour out my spirit on you;
I will make my words known to you.
