1. Listen to this, all you nations!Pay attention, all you inhabitants of the world!
2. Pay attention, all you people,both rich and poor!
3. I will declare a wise saying;I will share my profound thoughts.
4. I will learn a song that imparts wisdom;I will then sing my insightful song to the accompaniment of a harp.
5. Why should I be afraid in times of trouble,when the sinful deeds of deceptive men threaten to overwhelm me?
