[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 they life shall be increased.  [12.] If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
