1. Wisdom built her house;she has carved out her seven pillars.
2. She slaughtered her animals,mixed her wine,and set her table.
3. She sends out her female servants; she issues an invitationfrom the top of the city heights:
4. "Whoever is naive turn aside here,"she says to those who lack sense.
5. "Come, eat my food,and drink the wine I have mixed.
6. Abandon your simplistic ways and live;walk in the way of understanding."
7. Whoever instructs the cynic gets insulted;whoever corrects the wicked gets hurt.
8. Don’t correct the impudent, or they will hate you;correct the wise, and they will love you.
9. Teach the wise, and they will become wiser;inform the righteous, and their learning will increase.
