Proverbs 9:1-6

RHE

NIV

1 Wisdom hath built herself a house, she hath hewn her out seven pillars.
1 Wisdom has built her house; she has set up its seven pillars.
2 She hath slain her victims, mingled her wine, and set forth her table.
2 She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine; she has also set her table.
3 She hath sent her maids to invite to the tower, and to the walls of the city:
3 She has sent out her servants, and she calls from the highest point of the city,
4 Whosoever is a little one, let him come to me. And to the unwise she said:
4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!” To those who have no sense she says,
5 Come, eat my bread, and drink the wine which I have mingled for you.
5 “Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Forsake childishness, and live, and walk by the ways of prudence.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of insight.”
