Proverbs 1:21 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 1:21

19 ^aSo are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain;
It takes away the life of its owners.

20 ^aWisdom calls aloud¹ outside;
She raises her voice in the open squares.

21 She cries out in the¹ chief concourses,
At the openings of the gates in the city
She speaks her words:

22 “How long, you¹ simple ones, will you love simplicity?
For scorners delight in their scorning,
And fools hate knowledge.

23 Turn at my rebuke;
Surely ^aI will pour out my spirit on you;
I will make my words known to you.

24 ^aBecause I have called and you refused,
I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded,

25 Because you ^adisdained all my counsel,
And would have none of my rebuke,
