wisdom is calling out to you all mankind.




                                                             Listen!wisdom is calling out.
                                                               reason is making herself heard.
                                                             On the hilltops near the road.
                                                                and at the cross-roads she stands.
                                                              At the entrance to  the city
                                                                 beside the gates,she calls:
                                                               I appeal to you ,mankind;
                                                                   I call to everyone on earth.
                                                                Are you Immature?learn to be mature.
                                                                   Are you foolish?learn to have sense.
                                                                  Listen to my excellent words;
                                                                     all I tell you is right
                                                                  What I say is the truth;
                                                                        lies are hateful to me.
                                                                   Everything I say is true;
                                                                     nothing is false or misleading.
                                                                   To the man with insight,it is all clear.
                                                                      to the well-informed,it is all plain.
                                                                   Choose my instruction and advice instead
                                                                     of silver;
                                                                   Choose knowledge rather than the finest
                                                                         gold.
                                                                   Listen to me all mankind,listen to what
                                                                      I have say,
                                                                    Be wise;do not neglect it.
