Proverbs 9:1-6
New International Version - UK
Invitations of wisdom and folly
9 Wisdom has built her house;
she has set up[a] its seven pillars.
2 She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;
she has also set her table.
3 She has sent out her servants, and she calls
from the highest point of the city,
4 ‘Let all who are simple come to my house!’
To those who have no sense she says,
5 ‘Come, eat my food
and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live;
walk in the way of insight.’
