1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice? KJVSD — Proverbs 8:1

2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:2

3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:3

4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice [is] to the sons of man. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:4

5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:5

6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips [shall be] right things. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:6

7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness [is] an abomination to my lips. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:7

8 All the words of my mouth [are] in righteousness; [there is] nothing froward or perverse in them.KJVSD — Proverbs 8:8

9 They [are] all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:9

10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:10

11 For wisdom [is] better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.KJVSD — Proverbs 8:11

12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:12

13 The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:13

14 Counsel [is] mine, and sound wisdom: I [am] understanding; I have strength. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:14

18 Riches and honour [are] with me; [yea], durable riches and righteousness. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:18

19 My fruit [is] better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:19

20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: KJVSD — Proverbs 8:20

21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:21

22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.KJVSD — Proverbs 8:22

23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.KJVSD — Proverbs 8:23

24 When [there were] no depths, I was brought forth; when [there were] no fountains abounding with water. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:24

25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: KJVSD — Proverbs 8:25

26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:26

27 When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: KJVSD — Proverbs 8:27

28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: KJVSD — Proverbs 8:28

29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: KJVSD — Proverbs 8:29

30 Then I was by him, [as] one brought up [with him]: and I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him;KJVSD — Proverbs 8:30

31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights [were] with the sons of men. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:31

33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.KJVSD — Proverbs 8:33

34 Blessed [is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:34

35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:35

36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death. KJVSD — Proverbs 8:36
