Proverbs 1:21-23
Modern English Version

21 She cries at the corner of the streets, in the openings of the gates;
    she speaks her words in the city, saying:

22 “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity?
    For the scorners delight in their scorning,
    and fools hate knowledge.
23 Turn at my reproof;
    surely I will pour out my spirit on you;
    I will make my words known to you.

22 “How long will you who are simple(A) love your simple ways?

    and fools hate(B) knowledge?
23 Repent at my rebuke!
    Then I will pour out my thoughts to you,
    I will make known to you my teachings.
