1	Wisdom has built her house;she has hewn her seven pillars.
2	She has slaughtered her beasts; she has mixed her wine; she has also set her table.
3	She has sent out her young women to call from the highest places in the town,
4	“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!” To him who lacks sense she says,
5	“Come, eat of my bread and drink of the wine I have mixed.
6	Leave your simple ways, and live, and walk in the way of insight.“
7	Whoever corrects a scoffer gets himself abuse, and he who reproves a wicked man incurs injury.
8	Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
9	Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
10	The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.
11	For by me your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life.
12	If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
13	The woman Folly is loud; she is seductive and knows nothing.
14	She sits at the door of her house; she takes a seat on the highest places of the town,
15	calling to those who pass by, who are going straight on their way,
16	“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!” And to him who lacks sense she says,
17	“Stolen water is sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”
18	But he does not know that the dead are there, that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

1	Wisdom has built her house; she has hewn out its seven pillars.
2	She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine; she has also set her table.
3	She has sent out her maids, and she calls from the highest point of the city.
4	“Let all who are simple come in here!” she says to those who lack judgment.
5	“Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed.
6	Leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of understanding.
7	“Whoever corrects a mocker invites insult; whoever rebukes a wicked man incurs abuse.
8	Do not rebuke a mocker or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man and he will love you.
9	Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning.
10	“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
11	For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.
12	If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer.“
13	The woman Folly is loud; she is undisciplined and without knowledge.
14	She sits at the door of her house, on a seat at the highest point of the city,
15	calling out to those who pass by, who go straight on their way.
16	“Let all who are simple come in here!” she says to those who lack judgment.
17	“Stolen water is sweet; food eaten in secret is delicious!”
18	But little do they know that the dead are there, that her guests are in the depths of the grave.

1	Wisdom has built her house; she has carved its seven columns.
2	She has prepared a great banquet, mixed the wines, and set the table.
3	She has sent her servants to invite everyone to come. She calls out from the heights overlooking the city.
4	“Come in with me,” she urges the simple. To those who lack good judgment, she says,
5	“Come, eat my food, and drink the wine I have mixed.
6	Leave your simple ways behind, and begin to live; learn to use good judgment.“
7	Anyone who rebukes a mocker will get an insult in return. Anyone who corrects the wicked will get hurt.
8	So don't bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you.
9	Instruct the wise, and they will be even wiser. Teach the righteous, and they will learn even more.
10	Fear of the LORD is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in good judgment.
11	Wisdom will multiply your days and add years to your life.
12	If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit. If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer.
13	The woman named Folly is brash. She is ignorant and doesn't know it.
14	She sits in her doorway on the heights overlooking the city.
15	She calls out to men going by who are minding their own business.
16	“Come in with me,” she urges the simple. To those who lack good judgment, she says,
17	“Stolen water is refreshing; food eaten in secret tastes the best!”
18	But little do they know that the dead are there. Her guests are in the depths of the grave.

1	Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
2	She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
3	She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
4	Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
5	Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
6	Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
7	He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
8	Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9	Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
10	The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
11	For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
12	If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
13	A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.
14	For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
15	To call passengers who go right on their ways:
16	Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
17	Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.
18	But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
