Proverbs 1:20-33	Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
	She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,

	Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
	Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
	But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
	I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
	When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
	Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
	For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
	They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
	Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
	For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
	But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
Proverbs 3:5-6	Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
	In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:34-35	Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
	The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
