1 Wisdom has built her house; she has made it strong with seven columns.
2 She has cooked meat, mixed wine, and put food on the table.
3 She has sent her servant girls to announce from the highest hill in the city,
4 “Whoever needs instruction, come.” She invites all the simple people and says,
5 “Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have prepared.
6 Leave your old, foolish ways and live! Advance along the path of understanding.”
7 Criticize a person who is rude and shows no respect, and you will only get insults. Correct the wicked, and you will only get hurt.
