4 Whoever [is] simple, let him turn in hither: [as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!” To those who have no sense she says,
5 Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine [which] I have mingled.
5 “Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of insight.”
