Proverbs 1:22

The Call Of Lady Wisdom

²¹ She will call in the head of sound, in the entrances of the gates: in the city she will say her words: ²² How long, ye simple, will ye love simplicity? and mockers delight to mock for them, and the foolish hate knowledge? ²³ Ye shall turn back at my reproofs: behold, I will pour forth my spirit to you, I will make known my words to you.
