that
reproveth
a scorner getteth
to
himself
shame :
and he
that
rebuketh
a wicked man
getteth
himself
a
blot
.

of
a scorner Is
receiving
for
it
--
shame ,

blemish
.

rebuke
a
wise man
, and he will
love
thee.

be
multiplied
, and the
years of thy
life shall
be
increased
.
For by me do
thy days multiply
, And added
to
thee

years of life.
If thou be
wise, thou shalt
be
wise for thyself :
but
if
thou
scornest
, thou alone
shalt
bear
it.

been
wise for thyself, And
thou hast
scorned
--
thyself
bearest
`
it '

nothing

For
she sitteth
at the door
of her house, on a seat
in
the high places of the city,
And
she hath
sat
at the opening
of her house, On a throne
--
the high places of the city,
To call passengers
who go
right
on their ways:
To call to
those
passing
by
the
way,
Who are
going
straight
`
on '
their paths.
Whoso
is simple ,
let him turn in
hither :
and as
for
him
that
wanteth
understanding,
she saith
to him,
`Who
`
is '
simple ?
let him turn aside
hither .'
And whoso
lacketh
heart
--
she said
to him,
Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten
in
secret
is pleasant.
`
Stolen waters are sweet, And hidden
bread is pleasant. '
But
he knoweth
not that the
dead
are there ;
and
that
her
guests
are
in the
depths
of hell.
And
he hath
not known
that Rephaim
`
are '
there ,
In deep
places
of Sheol
her
invited
ones!
