The verses around it, from Proverbs 8.
2 On the heights overlooking the road, at the crossroads she takes her stand.
3 Beside the gates to the city, at the entrances she cries out:
4 “To you, O men, I call out, and my cry is to the sons of men.
5 O simple ones, learn to be shrewd; O fools, gain understanding.
6 Listen, for I speak of noble things, and the opening of my lips will reveal right.
7 For my mouth will speak the truth, and wickedness is detestable to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are righteous; none are crooked or perverse.
9 They are all plain to the discerning, and upright to those who find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than pure gold.
