Proverbs 8:9 Context
7For my mouth shall speake truth, and wickednesse is an abomination to my lippes. 8All the words of my mouth are in righteousnes, there is nothing froward or peruerse in them. 9They are all plaine to him that vnderstandeth: and right to them that find knowledge. 10Receiue my instruction, and not siluer: and knowledge rather then choise gold. 11For wisedome is better then rubies: and all the things that may be desired, are not to be compared to it.
