Proverbs Chapter 8 - King James Strong Number Version

1: Doth not wisdom <H2451> cry? <H7121> and understanding <H8394> put forth <H5414> her voice? <H6963>
2: She standeth <H5324> in the top <H7218> of high places, <H4791> by the way <H1870> in the places <H1004> of the paths. <H5410>
3: She crieth <H7442> at <H3027> the gates, <H8179> at the entry <H6310> of the city, <H7176> at the coming in <H3996> at the doors. <H6607>
4: Unto you, O men, <H0376> I call; <H7121> and my voice <H6963> [is] to the sons <H1121> of man. <H0120>
5: O ye simple, <H6612> understand <H0995> wisdom: <H6195> and, ye fools, <H3684> be ye of an understanding <H0995> heart. <H3820>
6: Hear; <H8085> for I will speak <H1696> of excellent things; <H5057> and the opening <H4669> of my lips <H8193> [shall be] right things. <H4339>
7: For my mouth <H2441> shall speak <H1897> truth; <H0571> and wickedness <H7562> [is] an abomination <H8441> to my lips. <H8193>
8: All the words <H0561> of my mouth <H6310> [are] in righteousness; <H6664> [there is] nothing froward <H6617> or perverse <H6141> in them.
9: They [are] all plain <H5228> to him that understandeth, <H0995> and right <H3477> to them that find <H4672> knowledge. <H1847>
10: Receive <H3947> my instruction, <H4148> and not silver; <H3701> and knowledge <H1847> rather than choice <H0977> gold. <H2742>
11: For wisdom <H2451> [is] better <H2896> than rubies; <H6443> and all the things that may be desired <H2656> are not to be compared <H7737> to it.
12: I wisdom <H2451> dwell <H7931> with prudence, <H6195> and find out <H4672> knowledge <H1847> of witty inventions. <H4209>
13: The fear <H3374> of the LORD <H3068> [is] to hate <H8130> evil: <H7451> pride, <H1344> and arrogancy, <H1347> and the evil <H7451> way, <H1870> and the froward <H8419> mouth, <H6310> do I hate. <H8130>
14: Counsel <H6098> [is] mine, and sound wisdom: <H8454> I [am] understanding; <H0998> I have strength. <H1369>
15: By me kings <H4428> reign, <H4427> and princes <H7336> decree <H2710> justice. <H6664>
16: By me princes <H8269> rule, <H8323> and nobles, <H5081> [even] all the judges <H8199> of the earth. <H0776>
17: I love <H0157> them that love <H0157> me; and those that seek me early <H7836> shall find <H4672> me.
18: Riches <H6239> and honour <H3519> [are] with me; [yea], durable <H6276> riches <H1952> and righteousness. <H6666>
19: My fruit <H6529> [is] better <H2896> than gold, <H2742> yea, than fine gold; <H6337> and my revenue <H8393> than choice <H0977> silver. <H3701>
20: I lead <H1980> in the way <H0734> of righteousness, <H6666> in the midst <H8432> of the paths <H5410> of judgment: <H4941>
21: That I may cause those that love <H0157> me to inherit <H5157> substance; <H3426> and I will fill <H4390> their treasures. <H0214>
22: The LORD <H3068> possessed <H7069> me in the beginning <H7225> of his way, <H1870> before <H6924> his works <H4659> of old.
23: I was set up <H5258> from everlasting, <H5769> from the beginning, <H7218> or ever <H6924> the earth <H0776> was.
24: When [there were] no depths, <H8415> I was brought forth; <H2342> when [there were] no fountains <H4599> abounding <H3513> with water. <H4325>
25: Before the mountains <H2022> were settled, <H2883> before <H6440> the hills <H1389> was I brought forth: <H2342>
26: While as yet he had not made <H6213> the earth, <H0776> nor the fields, <H2351> nor the highest part <H7218> of the dust <H6083> of the world. <H8398>
27: When he prepared <H3559> the heavens, <H8064> I [was] there: when he set <H2710> a compass <H2329> upon the face <H6440> of the depth: <H8415>
28: When he established <H0553> the clouds <H7834> above: <H4605> when he strengthened <H5810> the fountains <H5869> of the deep: <H8415>
29: When he gave <H7760> to the sea <H3220> his decree, <H2706> that the waters <H4325> should not pass <H5674> his commandment: <H6310> when he appointed <H2710> the foundations <H4144> of the earth: <H0776>
30: Then I was by him, <H0681> [as] one brought up <H0525> [with him]: and I was daily <H3117> <H3117> [his] delight, <H8191> rejoicing <H7832> always <H6256> before <H6440> him;
31: Rejoicing <H7832> in the habitable part <H8398> of his earth; <H0776> and my delights <H8191> [were] with the sons <H1121> of men. <H0120>
32: Now therefore hearken <H8085> unto me, O ye children: <H1121> for blessed <H0835> [are they that] keep <H8104> my ways. <H1870>
33: Hear <H8085> instruction, <H4148> and be wise, <H2449> and refuse <H6544> it not.
34: Blessed <H0835> [is] the man <H0120> that heareth <H8085> me, watching <H8245> daily <H3117> <H3117> at my gates, <H1817> waiting <H8104> at the posts <H4201> of my doors. <H6607>
35: For whoso findeth <H4672> me findeth <H4672> life, <H2416> and shall obtain <H6329> favour <H7522> of the LORD. <H3068>
36: But he that sinneth <H2398> against me wrongeth <H2554> his own soul: <H5315> all they that hate <H8130> me love <H0157> death. <H4194>
