Proverbs 1:21

but these lay in wait for their own blood.

They lurk secretly for their own lives.

So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain.

It takes away the life of its owners.

Wisdom calls aloud in the street.

She utters her voice in the public squares.

“How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity?

How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery,

and fools hate knowledge?

Turn at my reproof.

Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you.

I will make known my words to you.

Because I have called, and you have refused;

I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;
