- Remove far from me falsehood and lies.
Give me neither poverty nor riches.
Feed me with the food that is needful for me. - Open your mouth for the mute,
in the cause of all who are left desolate. - Open your mouth, judge righteously,
and serve justice to the poor and needy. - Who can find a worthy woman?
For her value is far above rubies. - Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain;
but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised. - The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge,
but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction. - Turn at my reproof.
Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you.
I will make known my words to you. - For Yahweh gives wisdom.
Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. - He lays up sound wisdom for the upright.
He is a shield to those who walk in integrity. - That he may guard the paths of justice,
and preserve the way of his saints. - Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
equity and every good path.
