Exegesis
The verbs taronnah {תָּרֹנָּה | tā-rōnnāh} (Qal imperfect third person feminine plural) and titten {תִּתֵּן | tit-tēn} (Qal imperfect third person feminine singular) convey ongoing proclamation. The chiastic arrangement of location and action enhances the emphasis on Wisdom’s accessible appeal in communal spaces. The translation renders these imperfect forms with active English verbs to preserve the dynamic, iterative sense.
In context — Proverbs 1:20
Wisdom calls out in the street, in the public squares she raises her voice .
