1 # Wisdom <02454> hath builded <01129> (8804) her house <01004>, she hath hewn out <02672> (8804) her seven <07651> pillars <05982>:
2 She hath killed <02873> (8804) her beasts <02874>; she hath mingled <04537> (8804) her wine <03196> ; she hath also furnished <06186> (8804) her table <07979>.
3 She hath sent forth <07971> (8804) her maidens <05291>: she crieth <07121> (8799) upon <01610> the highest places <04791> of the city <07176>,
4 Whoso is simple <06612>, let him turn in <05493> (8799) hither: as for him that wanteth <02638> understanding <03820>, she saith <0559> (8804) to him,
5 Come <03212> (8798), eat <03898> (8798) of my bread <03899>, and drink <08354> (8798) of the wine <03196> which I have mingled <04537> (8804).
6 Forsake <05800> (8798) the foolish <06612>, and live <02421> (8798); and go <0833> (8798) in the way <01870> of understanding <0998>.
7 He that reproveth <03256> (8802) a scorner <03887> (8801) getteth <03947> (8802) to himself shame <07036>: and he that rebuketh <03198> (8688) a wicked <07563> man getteth himself a blot <03971>.
8 Reprove <03198> (8686) not a scorner <03887> (8801), lest he hate <08130> (8799) thee: rebuke <03198> (8685) a wise man <02450>, and he will love <0157> (8799) thee.
9 Give <05414> (8798) instruction to a wise <02450> man, and he will be yet wiser <02449> (8799) : teach <03045> (8685) a just <06662> man, and he will increase <03254> (8686) in learning <03948>.
10 The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> is the beginning <08462> of wisdom <02451>: and the knowledge <01847> of the holy <06918> is understanding <0998>.
11 For by me thy days <03117> shall be multiplied <07235> (8799), and the years <08141> of thy life <02416> shall be increased <03254> (8686).
12 If thou be wise <02449> (8804), thou shalt be wise <02449> (8804) for thyself: but if thou scornest <03887> (8804), thou alone shalt bear <05375> (8799) it.
13 # A foolish <03687> woman <0802> is clamorous <01993> (8802): she is simple <06615>, and <01077> knoweth <03045> (8804) nothing <04100>.
14 For she sitteth <03427> (8804) at the door <06607> of her house <01004>, on a seat <03678> in the high places <04791> of the city <07176>,
15 To call <07121> (8800) passengers <05674> (8802) <01870> who go right <03474> (8764) on their ways <0734>:
16 Whoso is simple <06612>, let him turn in <05493> (8799) hither: and as for him that wanteth <02638> understanding <03820>, she saith <0559> (8804) to him,
17 Stolen <01589> (8803) waters <04325> are sweet <04985> (8799), and bread <03899> eaten in secret <05643> is pleasant <05276> (8799).
18 But he knoweth <03045> (8804) not that the dead <07496> are there; and that her guests <07121> (8803) are in the depths <06012> of hell <07585>.
