Proverbs 8:12-14
Contemporary English Version

Wisdom Speaks

12 I am Wisdom[a]—Common Sense
    is my closest friend;
I possess knowledge
    and sound judgment.
13 If you respect the Lord,
    you will hate evil.
I hate pride and conceit
    and deceitful lies.
14 I am strong, and I offer
sensible advice
    and sound judgment.
