Proverbs 1:20-23

English Standard Version

^20 (A)Wisdom cries aloud in the street,
    in the markets she raises her voice;
²¹ at the head of the noisy streets she cries out;
    at ^(B)the entrance of the city gates she speaks:
²² “How long, O ^(C)simple ones, will you love being simple?
How long will ^(D)scoffers delight in their scoffing
    and fools ^(E)hate knowledge?
²³ If you turn at my reproof,^[a]
behold, I will ^(F)pour out my spirit to you;
    I will make my words known to you.
