- Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
- She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
- She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
- Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
- Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.

- Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
- He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
- Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
- Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
- The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
|
- "Forsake your folly and live, And proceed in the way of understanding."
- He who corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself, And he who reproves a wicked man gets insults for himself.
- Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you, Reprove a wise man and he will love you.
- Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser, Teach a righteous man and he will increase his learning.
- The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
|
- For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
- If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
|
- For by me your days will be multiplied, And years of life will be added to you.
- If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, And if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
