Chapter 8 1Doesn’t wisdom cry out? Doesn’t understanding raise her voice? 2On the top of high places by the way, Where the paths meet, she stands. 3Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, At the entry doors, she cries aloud: 4“To you men, I call! I send my voice to the sons of mankind. 5You simple, understand prudence. You fools, be of an understanding heart. 6Hear, for I will speak excellent things. The opening of my lips is for right things. 7For my mouth speaks truth. Wickedness is an abomination to my lips. 8All the words of my mouth are in righteousness. There is nothing crooked or perverse in them. 9They are all plain to him who understands, Right to those who find knowledge. 10Receive my instruction rather than silver; Knowledge rather than choice gold. 11For wisdom is better than rubies. All the things that may be desired can’t be compared to it. 12“I, wisdom, have made prudence my dwelling. Find out knowledge and discretion. 13The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth. 14Counsel and sound knowledge are mine. I have understanding and power. 15By me kings reign, And princes decree justice. 16By me princes rule; Nobles, and all the righteous rulers of the earth. 17I love those who love me. Those who seek me diligently will find me. 18With me are riches, honor, Enduring wealth, and prosperity. 19My fruit is better than gold, yes, than fine gold; My yield than choice silver. 20I walk in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice; 21That I may give wealth to those who love me. I fill their treasuries. 22“Yahweh possessed me in the beginning of his work, Before his deeds of old. 23I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Before the earth existed. 24When there were no depths, I was brought forth, When there were no springs abounding with water. 25Before the mountains were settled in place, Before the hills, I was brought forth; 26While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the beginning of the dust of the world. 27When he established the heavens, I was there; When he set a circle on the surface of the deep, 28When he established the clouds above, When the springs of the deep became strong, 29When he gave to the sea its boundary, That the waters should not violate his commandment, When he marked out the foundations of the earth; 30Then I was the craftsman by his side. I was a delight day by day, Always rejoicing before him, 31Rejoicing in his whole world. My delight was with the sons of men. 32“Now therefore, my sons, listen to me, For blessed are those who keep my ways. 33Hear instruction, and be wise. Don’t refuse it. 34Blessed is the man who hears me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my door posts. 35For whoever finds me, finds life, And will obtain favor from Yahweh. 36But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death.” ►Proofing disabled for this book ► Printer-friendly version

Chapter 8 1 Ne propovijeda li mudrost i ne diže li razboritost svoj glas? 2Navrh brda, uza cestu, na raskršæima stoji, 3kod izlaza iz grada, kraj ulaznih vrata, ona glasno vièe: 4"Vama, o ljudi, propovijedam i upravljam svoj glas sinovima ljudskim. 5Shvatite mudrost, vi neiskusni, a vi nerazumni, urazumite srce. 6Slušajte, jer æu zboriti o važnim stvarima, i moje æe usne otkriti što je pravo. 7Jer moje nepce zbori istinu i zloæa je mojim usnama mrska. 8Sve su rijeèi mojih usta praviène, u njima nema ništa ni krivo ni prijetvorno. 9Sve su one jasne razboritomu i pravedne onomu tko je stekao spoznaju. 10Primajte radije moju pouku no srebro i znanje požudnije od zlata. 11Jer mudrost je vrednija od biserja i nikakve se dragocjenosti ne mogu porediti s njom. 12Ja, mudrost, boravim s razboritošæu i posjedujem znanje umna djelovanja. 13Strah Gospodnji mržnja je na zlo. Oholost, samodostatnost, put zloæe i usta puna laži - to ja mrzim. 14Moji su savjet i razboritost, ja sam razbor i moja je jakost. 15Po meni kraljevi kraljuju i velikaši dijele pravdu. 16Po meni knezuju knezovi i odliènici i svi suci zemaljski. 17Ja ljubim one koji ljube mene i nalaze me koji me traže. 18U mene je bogatstvo i slava, postojano dobro i pravednost. 19Moj je plod bolji od èista i žežena zlata i moj je prihod bolji od èistoga srebra. 20Ja kroèim putem pravde, sred praviènih staza, 21da dadem dobra onima koji me ljube i napunim njihove riznice. 22Jahve me stvori kao poèelo svoga djela, kao najraniji od svojih èina, u pradoba; 23oblikovana sam još od vjeènosti, odiskona, prije nastanka zemlje. 24Rodih se kad još nije bilo pradubina, dok nije bilo izvora obilnih voda. 25Rodih se prije nego su utemeljene gore, prije brežuljaka. 26Kad još ne bijaše naèinio zemlje, ni poljana, ni poèetka zemaljskom prahu; 27kad je stvarao nebesa, bila sam nazoèna, kad je povlaèio krug na licu bezdana. 28Kad je u visini utvrðivao oblake i kad je odredio snagu izvoru pradubina; 29kad je postavljao moru njegove granice da mu se vode ne preliju preko obala, kad je polagao temelje zemlji, 30bila sam kraj njega, kao graditeljica, bila u radosti, iz dana u dan, igrajuæi pred njim sve vrijeme: 31igrala sam po tlu njegove zemlje, i moja su radost djeca èovjekova. 32Tako, djeco, poslušajte me, blago onima koji èuvaju moje putove. 33Poslušajte pouku - da steèete mudrost i nemojte je odbaciti. 34Blago èovjeku koji me sluša i bdi na mojim vratima svaki dan i koji èuva dovratnike moje. 35Jer tko nalazi mene, nalazi život i stjeèe milost od Jahve. 36A ako se ogriješi o mene, udi svojoj duši: svi koji mene mrze ljube smrt."
