Wisdom is too high for a fool. He doesn’t open his mouth in the gate.

A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it, But knowledge is easy to him who understands.

His ways are always prospering; Your judgments are far above, out of his sight; As for all his enemies, he sneers at them.

But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

O Lord, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep.A senseless man does not know, Nor does a fool understand this.

Wisdom is in the sight of him who has understanding, But the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.

“ When I went out to the gate by the city, When I took my seat in the open square,The young men saw me and hid, And the aged arose and stood;The princes refrained from talking, And put their hand on their mouth;The voice of nobles was hushed, And their tongue stuck to the roof of their mouth.When the ear heard, then it blessed me, And when the eye saw, then it approved me;Because I delivered the poor who cried out, The fatherless and the one who had no helper.The blessing of a perishing man came upon me, And I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.I was eyes to the blind, And I was feet to the lame.I was a father to the poor, And I searched out the case that I did not know.I broke the fangs of the wicked, And plucked the victim from his teeth.“ Then I said,‘ I shall die in my nest, And multiply my days as the sand.My root is spread out to the waters, And the dew lies all night on my branch.My glory is fresh within me, And my bow is renewed in my hand.’“ Men listened to me and waited, And kept silence for my counsel.After my words they did not speak again, And my speech settled on them as dew.They waited for me as for the rain, And they opened their mouth wide as for the spring rain.If I mocked at them, they did not believe it, And the light of my countenance they did not cast down.I chose the way for them, and sat as chief; So I dwelt as a king in the army, As one who comforts mourners.

They hate the one who rebukes in the gate, And they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.

For I know your manifold transgressions And your mighty sins: Afflicting the just and taking bribes; Diverting the poor from justice at the gate.

Hate evil, love good; Establish justice in the gate. It may be that the Lord God of hosts Will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

Do not rob the poor because he is poor, Nor oppress the afflicted at the gate;

The way of life winds upward for the wise, That he may turn away from hell below.

His sons are far from safety, They are crushed in the gate, And there is no deliverer.

Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die.Open your mouth, judge righteously, And plead the cause of the poor and needy.

Who make a man an offender by a word, And lay a snare for him who reproves in the gate, And turn aside the just by empty words.

If I have raised my hand against the fatherless, When I saw I had help in the gate;
