O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 5 is found in chapter 8 of Proverbs. Wisdom appears publicly again, but now with greater intensity: she speaks in visible places and addresses all humanity. Her message is upright, truthful, and superior to silver and wealth. The contrast with the seductive woman of the previous chapter is significant: both voices call to human beings, but one offers discernment while the other offers a hidden path toward destruction.

Merkt, ihr Unverständigen, auf Klugheit und, ihr Toren, nehmt es zu Herzen!
Entended, simples, discreción; Y vosotros, locos, entrad en cordura.
Aprendan prudencia, ingenuos; y ustedes, necios, aprendan a tener juicio.
Stupides, apprenez le discernement; Insensés, apprenez l'intelligence.
Semplici, intendete che cosa sia avvedimento; E voi stolti, intendete che cosa sia buon senno.
Entendei, ó simples, a prudência; e vós, insensatos, entendei de coração.
愚蒙人哪,你們要學習靈巧, 愚昧人哪,你們的心要明辨。
