- Wisdom hath built herself a house, she hath hewn her out seven pillars.
- She hath slain her victims, mingled her wine, and set forth her table.
- She hath sent her maids to invite to the tower, and to the walls of the city:
- Whosoever is a little one, let him come to me. And to the unwise she said:
- Come, eat my bread, and drink the wine which I have mingled for you.
- Forsake childishness, and live, and walk by the ways of prudence.
- He that teacheth a scorner, doth an injury to himself: and he that rebuketh a wicked man, getteth himself a blot.
- Rebuke not a scorner lest he hate thee. Rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
- Give an occasion to a wise man, and wisdom shall be added to him. Teach a just man, and he shall make haste to receive it.
- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is prudence.
- For by me shall thy days be multiplied, and years of life shall be added to thee.
- If thou be wise, thou shalt be so to thyself: and if a scorner, thou alone shalt bear the evil.
- A foolish woman and clamorous, and full of allurements, and knowing nothing at all,
- Sat at the door of her house, upon a seat, in a high place of the city,
- To call them that pass by the way, and go on their journey:
- He that is a little one, let him turn to me. And to the fool she said:
- Stolen waters are sweeter, and hid den bread is more pleasant.
- And he did not know that giants are there, and that her guests are in the depths of hell. The Parables of Solomon
