Proverbs 8:4
Unto you, O men, I call; And my voice is to the sons of man.
In context
1 Doth not wisdom cry? And understanding put forth her voice? 2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way In the places of the paths. 3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, At the coming in at the doors. 4 Unto you, O men, I call; And my voice is to the sons of man. 5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: And, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. 6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; And the opening of my lips shall be right things. 7 For my mouth shall speak truth; And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
