Proverbs 1:21 in Context — Proverbs 1
19 Assim [são] os caminhos de todo aquele que tem ganância pelo lucro desonesto; ela tomará a alma daqueles que a tem.
20 A sabedoria grita pelas ruas; nas praças ela levanta sua voz.
21 Ela clama nas encruzilhadas, onde [passam] muita gente; às entradas das portas, nas cidades ela diz suas mensagens:

23 Convertei-vos à minha repreensão; eis que vos derramarei meu espírito, [e] vos farei saber minhas palavras.
