Wisdom Shouts in the Streets
Wisdom shouts in the streets.
She cries out in the public square.
She cries out in the public square.
She calls to the crowds along the main street,
to those gathered in front of the city gate:
to those gathered in front of the city gate:
“How long, you simpletons, will you insist on being simpleminded?
How long will you mockers relish your mocking?
How long will you fools hate knowledge?
How long will you mockers relish your mocking?
How long will you fools hate knowledge?
Come and listen to my counsel.
I’ll share my heart with you
and make you wise.
I’ll share my heart with you
and make you wise.
