Proverbs 9

Verses of Proverbs 9 of the ASV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Wisdom hath builded her house; She hath hewn out her seven pillars:
2 - She hath killed her beasts; She hath mingled her wine; She hath also furnished her table:
3 - She hath sent forth her maidens; She crieth upon the highest places of the city:
4 - Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: As for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,
5 - Come, eat ye of my bread, And drink of the wine which I have mingled.
6 - Leave off, ye simple ones, and live; And walk in the way of understanding.
7 - He that correcteth a scoffer getteth to himself reviling; And he that reproveth a wicked man `getteth' himself a blot.
8 - Reprove not a scoffer, lest he hate thee: Reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.
9 - Give `instruction' to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: Teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
10 - The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
11 - For by me thy days shall be multiplied, And the years of thy life shall be increased.
12 - If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; And if thou scoffest, thou alone shalt bear it.
13 - The foolish woman is clamorous; `She is' simple, and knoweth nothing.
14 - And she sitteth at the door of her house, On a seat in the high places of the city,
15 - To call to them that pass by, Who go right on their ways:
16 - Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither; And as for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,
17 - Stolen waters are sweet, And bread `eaten' in secret is pleasant.
18 - But he knoweth not that the dead are there; That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
