New Testament

Proverbs 9:1-8 New International Version (NIV)

1. Wisdom has built her house; she has set up 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.”

7. Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults; whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.

8. Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you; rebuke the wise and they will love you.
