    Proverbs 9
    • 1   Wisdom hath built herself a house, she hath hewn her out seven pillars.
    • 2   She hath slain her victims, mingled her wine, and set forth her table.
    • 3   She hath sent her maids to invite to the tower, and to the walls of the city:
    • 4   Whosoever is a little one, let him come to me. And to the unwise she said:
    • 5   Come, eat my bread, and drink the wine which I have mingled for you.
    • 6   Forsake childishness, and live, and walk by the ways of prudence.
    • 7   He that teacheth a scorner, doth an injury to himself; and he that rebuketh a wicked man, getteth himself a blot.
    • 8   Rebuke not a scorner, lest he hate thee. Rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
    • 9   Give an occasion to a wise man, and wisdom shall be added to him. Teach a just man, and he shall make haste to receive it.
    • 10   The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is prudence.
    • 11   For by me shall thy days be multiplied, and years of life shall be added to thee.
    • 12   If thou be wise, thou shalt be so to thyself: and if a scorner, thou alone shalt bear the evil.
    • 13   A foolish woman and clamorous, and full of allurements, and knowing nothing at all,
    • 14   Sat at the door of her house, upon a seat, in a high place of the city,
    • 15   To call them that pass by the way, and go on their journey:
    • 16   He that is a little one, let him turn to me. And to the fool she said:
    • 17   Stolen waters are sweeter, and hidden bread is more pleasant.
    • 18   And he did not know that giants are there, and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
