She (Wisdom) standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.

Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Hear Me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of My mouth.

I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

My son, forget not My law; but let thine heart keep My commandments:

So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;

My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

If Thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

The Lord is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
