Wisdom Invites Guests to Her Feast Under Seven Pillars
by emmanuel_higgins
9
:
1
Proverbs 9:1
chevron_left
chevron_right
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
L
ORD
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 thy life shall be increased.
12
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but
if
thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear
it
.
13
A foolish woman
is
clamorous:
she is
simple, and knoweth nothing.
14
For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
15
To call passengers who go right on their ways:
16
Whoso
is
simple, let him turn in hither: and
as for
him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
17
Stolen waters are sweet, and bread
eaten
in secret is pleasant.
18
But he knoweth not that the dead
are
there;
and that
her guests
are
in the depths of hell.
