Proverbs 9:13

Compare all

11 ^aFor by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.

12 ^aIf you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”

The Way of Folly

13 ^aA foolish woman is¹ clamorous;
She is simple, and knows nothing.

14 For she sits at the door of her house,
On a seat ^aby the highest places of the city,

15 To call to those who pass by,
Who go straight on their way:

16 “Whoever^a is simple, let him turn in here”;
And as for him who lacks understanding, she says to him,

17 “Stolen^a water is sweet,
And bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”

18 But he does not know that ^athe dead are there,
That her guests are in the depths of¹ hell.
