Mishle 9:1-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. Chochmah hath built her bais, she hath hewn out her seven ammudim;

2. She hath prepared her meat; she hath mixed her yayin; she hath also set her shulchan.

3. She hath sent forth her na'arot; she calleth from the highest points of the city;

4. Whosoever is simple, let him turn in here; as for him that lacketh lev (a heart of understanding), she saith to him,

5. Come, eat of my lechem, and drink of the yayin which I have mixed [Yn 6:53-54 OJBC].

6. Forsake the simple ways, and live; and go in the derech binah.

7. He that reproveth a letz (mocker) getteth to himself shame, and he that is a mochiach (reprover) of a wicked man getteth himself a blot stain.
