Proverbs 9:1-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

9 Wisdom hath built herself a house, she hath hewn her out seven pillars.

² She hath slain her victims, mingled her wine, and set forth her table.

³ She hath sent her maids to invite to the tower, and to the walls of the city:

⁴ Whosoever is a little one, let him come to me. And to the unwise she said:

⁵ Come, eat my bread, and drink the wine which I have mingled for you.

⁶ Forsake childishness, and live, and walk by the ways of prudence.
