5 Stupides, apprenez le discernement; Insensés, apprenez l’intelligence.
6 Écoutez, car j’ai de grandes choses à dire, Et mes lèvres s’ouvrent pour enseigner ce qui est droit.
7 Car ma bouche proclame la vérité, Et mes lèvres ont en horreur le mensonge;
8 Toutes les paroles de ma bouche sont justes, Elles n’ont rien de faux ni de détourné;
9 Toutes sont claires pour celui qui est intelligent, Et droites pour ceux qui ont trouvé la science.
