WisdomH2454 hath buildedH1129 her houseH1004, she hath hewn outH2672 her sevenH7651 pillarsH5982:
She hath killedH2873 her beastsH2874; she hath mingledH4537 her wineH3196; she hath also furnishedH6186 her tableH7979. {her beasts: Heb. her killing}
She hath sent forthH7971 her maidensH5291: she criethH7121 uponH1610 the highest placesH4791 of the cityH7176,
Whoso is simpleH6612, let him turn inH5493 hither: as for him that wantethH2638 understandingH3820, she saithH559 to him,
ComeH3212, eatH3898 of my breadH3899, and drinkH8354 of the wineH3196 which I have mingledH4537.
ForsakeH5800 the foolishH6612, and liveH2421; and goH833 in the wayH1870 of understandingH998.
He that reprovethH3256 a scornerH3887 gettethH3947 to himself shameH7036: and he that rebukethH3198 a wickedH7563 man getteth himself a blotH3971.
ReproveH3198 not a scornerH3887, lest he hateH8130 thee: rebukeH3198 a wise manH2450, and he will loveH157 thee.
GiveH5414 instruction to a wiseH2450 man, and he will be yet wiserH2449: teachH3045 a justH6662 man, and he will increaseH3254 in learningH3948.
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is the beginningH8462 of wisdomH2451: and the knowledgeH1847 of the holyH6918 is understandingH998.
For by me thy daysH3117 shall be multipliedH7235, and the yearsH8141 of thy lifeH2416 shall be increasedH3254.
If thou be wiseH2449, thou shalt be wiseH2449 for thyself: but if thou scornestH3887, thou alone shalt bearH5375 it.
A foolishH3687 womanH802 is clamorousH1993: she is simpleH6615, andH1077 knowethH3045 nothingH4100.
For she sittethH3427 at the doorH6607 of her houseH1004, on a seatH3678 in the high placesH4791 of the cityH7176,
To callH7121 passengersH5674+H1870 who go rightH3474 on their waysH734:
Whoso is simpleH6612, let him turn inH5493 hither: and as for him that wantethH2638 understandingH3820, she saithH559 to him,
StolenH1589 watersH4325 are sweetH4985, and breadH3899 eaten in secretH5643 is pleasantH5276. {eaten…: Heb. of secrecies}
But he knowethH3045 not that the deadH7496 are there; and that her guestsH7121 are in the depthsH6012 of hellH7585.
