Proverbs 1:20-22
Contemporary English Version
Wisdom Speaks
20 (A) Wisdom[a] shouts in the streets
wherever crowds gather.
21 She shouts in the marketplaces
and near the city gates
as she says to the people,
22 “How much longer
will you enjoy
being stupid fools?
Won't you ever stop sneering
and laughing at knowledge?
