Proverbs 1:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ That’s what happens to everyone
    who goes after money in the wrong way.
That kind of money takes away
    the life of those who get it.

²⁰ Out in the open wisdom calls out.
    She raises her voice in a public place.
²¹ On top of the city wall she cries out.
    Here is what she says near the gate of the city.
