Wisdoms Invitation 1Wisdom has built her house, She has hewn out her seven pillars;
2She has prepared her food, she has mixed her wine;
3She has sent out her maidens, she calls
4Whoever is naive, let him turn in here!
5Come, eat of my food
6Forsake your folly and live,
7He who corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself,
8Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you,
9Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser,
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,
11For by me your days will be multiplied,
12If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
13The woman of folly is boisterous,
14She sits at the doorway of her house,
15Calling to those who pass by,
16Whoever is naive, let him turn in here,
17Stolen water is sweet;
18But he does not know that the dead are there, New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif. All rights reserved. For Permission to Quote Information visit http://www.lockman.org Bible Apps |
