2he offered his slain sacrifices, he meddled wine (or he mixed in spices with the wine), and setted forth his table.
3He sent his handmaids (or He sent forth his servantesses), that they should call to the tower; and to the walls of the city.
4If any man is little (in wit), come he to me. And wisdom spake to unwise men, (and said), (And that they should say, If any one hath little intelligence, come he to me. And then wisdom spoke to the unwise, and said,)
5Come ye, eat ye my bread; and drink ye the wine, which I have meddled to you, (or and drink ye the wine, in which I have mixed in spices for you).
6Forsake ye young childhood, and live ye; and go ye by the way of prudence. (Abandon ye foolishness, and have life; and go ye on the way of understanding.)
7He that teacheth a scorner, doeth wrong to himself; and he that reproveth a wicked man, engendereth a wem to himself. (He who trieth to teach a mocker, only wrongeth himself; and he who reproveth the wicked, begetteth a wound for himself.)
8Do not thou reprove a scorner; lest he hate thee. Reprove thou a wise man; and he shall love thee. (Do not thou rebuke a mocker; lest he hate thee. Rebuke thou a wise person; and he shall love thee.)
