1Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:1חָ֭כְמוֹת בָּנְתָ֣ה בֵיתָ֑הּ חָצְבָ֖ה עַמּוּדֶ֣יהָ שִׁבְעָֽה׃
2She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.2טָבְחָ֣ה טִ֭בְחָהּ מָסְכָ֣ה יֵינָ֑הּ אַ֝֗ף עָֽרְכָ֥ה שֻׁלְחָנָֽהּ׃
3She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,3שָֽׁלְחָ֣ה נַעֲרֹתֶ֣יהָ תִקְרָ֑א עַל־ גַּ֝פֵּ֗י מְרֹ֣מֵי קָֽרֶת׃
4Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,4מִי־ פֶ֭תִי יָסֻ֣ר הֵ֑נָּה חֲסַר־ לֵ֝֗ב אָ֣מְרָה לּֽוֹ׃
5Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.5לְ֭כוּ לַחֲמ֣וּ בְֽלַחֲמִ֑י וּ֝שְׁת֗וּ בְּיַ֣יִן מָסָֽכְתִּי׃
6Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.6עִזְב֣וּ פְתָאיִ֣ם וִֽחְי֑וּ וְ֝אִשְׁר֗וּ בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ בִּינָֽה׃
7He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.7יֹ֤סֵ֨ר ׀ לֵ֗ץ לֹקֵ֣חַֽ ל֣וֹ קָל֑וֹן וּמוֹכִ֖יחַ לְרָשָׁ֣ע מוּמֽוֹ׃
8Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.8אַל־ תּ֣וֹכַח לֵ֭ץ פֶּן־ יִשְׂנָאֶ֑ךָּ הוֹכַ֥ח לְ֝חָכָ֗ם וְיֶאֱהָבֶֽךָּ׃
9Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.9תֵּ֣ן לְ֭חָכָם וְיֶחְכַּם־ ע֑וֹד הוֹדַ֥ע לְ֝צַדִּ֗יק וְי֣וֹסֶף לֶֽקַח׃ פ
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.10תְּחִלַּ֣ת חָ֭כְמָה יִרְאַ֣ת יְהוָ֑ה וְדַ֖עַת קְדֹשִׁ֣ים בִּינָֽה׃
11For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.11כִּי־ בִ֭י יִרְבּ֣וּ יָמֶ֑יךָ וְיוֹסִ֥יפוּ לְּ֝ךָ֗ שְׁנ֣וֹת חַיִּֽים׃
12If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.12אִם־ חָ֭כַמְתָּ חָכַ֣מְתָּ לָּ֑ךְ וְ֝לַ֗צְתָּ לְֽבַדְּךָ֥ תִשָּֽׂא׃
13A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.13אֵ֣שֶׁת כְּ֭סִילוּת הֹֽמִיָּ֑ה פְּ֝תַיּ֗וּת וּבַל־ יָ֥דְעָה מָּֽה׃
14For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,14וְֽ֭יָשְׁבָה לְפֶ֣תַח בֵּיתָ֑הּ עַל־ כִּ֝סֵּ֗א מְרֹ֣מֵי קָֽרֶת׃
15To call passengers who go right on their ways:15לִקְרֹ֥א לְעֹֽבְרֵי־ דָ֑רֶךְ הַֽ֝מְיַשְּׁרִ֗ים אֹֽרְחוֹתָֽם׃
16Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,16מִי־ פֶ֭תִי יָסֻ֣ר הֵ֑נָּה וַחֲסַר־ לֵ֝֗ב וְאָ֣מְרָה לּֽוֹ׃
17Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.17מַֽיִם־ גְּנוּבִ֥ים יִמְתָּ֑קוּ וְלֶ֖חֶם סְתָרִ֣ים יִנְעָֽם׃
18But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.18וְֽלֹא־ יָ֭דַע כִּֽי־ רְפָאִ֣ים שָׁ֑ם בְּעִמְקֵ֖י שְׁא֣וֹל קְרֻאֶֽיהָ׃ פ
