1 La sabiduría ha edificado su casa, ha labrado sus siete columnas;
1
Lady Wisdom has built and furnished her home; it's supported by seven hewn timbers.
2 ha preparado su alimento, ha mezclado su vino, ha puesto también su mesa;
2
The banquet meal is ready to be served: lamb roasted, wine poured out, table set with silver and flowers.
3 ha enviado a sus doncellas, y clama desde los lugares más altos de la ciudad:
3
Having dismissed her serving maids, Lady Wisdom goes to town, stands in a prominent place, and invites everyone within sound of her voice:
4 El que sea simple que entre aquí. Al falto de entendimiento le dice:
4
"Are you confused about life, don't know what's going on? Come with me, oh come, have dinner with me!
5 Venid, comed de mi pan, y bebed del vino que he mezclado.
5
I've prepared a wonderful spread - fresh-baked bread, roast lamb, carefully selected wines.
6 Abandonad la necedad y viviréis, y andad por el camino del entendimiento.
6
Leave your impoverished confusion and live! Walk up the street to a life with meaning."
7 El que corrige al escarnecedor, atrae sobre sí deshonra, y el que reprende al impío recibe insultos.
7
If you reason with an arrogant cynic, you'll get slapped in the face; confront bad behavior and get a kick in the shins.
8 No reprendas al escarnecedor, para que no te aborrezca; reprende al sabio, y te amará.
8
So don't waste your time on a scoffer; all you'll get for your pains is abuse. But if you correct those who care about life, that's different - they'll love you for it!
9 Da instrucción al sabio, y será aún más sabio, enseña al justo, y aumentará su saber.
9
Save your breath for the wise - they'll be wiser for it; tell good people what you know - they'll profit from it.
10 El principio de la sabiduría es el temor del SEÑOR, y el conocimiento del Santo es inteligencia.
10
Skilled living gets its start in the Fear-of-God, insight into life from knowing a Holy God.
11 Pues por mí se multiplicarán tus días, y años de vida te serán añadidos.
11
It's through me, Lady Wisdom, that your life deepens, and the years of your life ripen.
12 Si eres sabio, eres sabio para provecho tuyo, y si escarneces, tú sólo lo sufrirás.
12
Live wisely and wisdom will permeate your life; mock life and life will mock you. Madame Whore Calls Out, Too
13 La mujer insensata es alborotadora, es simple y no sabe nada.
13
Then there's this other woman, Madame Whore - brazen, empty-headed, frivolous.
14 Y se sienta a la puerta de su casa, en un asiento, en los lugares altos de la ciudad,
14
She sits on the front porch of her house on Main Street,
15 llamando a los que pasan, a los que van derechos por sus sendas:
15
And as people walk by minding their own business, calls out,
16 El que sea simple, que entre aquí. Y al falto de entendimiento, le dice:
16
"Are you confused about life, don't know what's going on?
17 Dulces son las aguas hurtadas, y el pan comido en secreto es sabroso.
17
Steal off with me, I'll show you a good time! No one will ever know - I'll give you the time of your life."
18 Pero él no sabe que allí están los muertos, que sus invitados están en las profundidades del Seol.
18
But they don't know about all the skeletons in her closet, that all her guests end up in hell.
