Wisdom Has Prepared Her Home For The Simple
Proverbs 9:2-6
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.”
New International Version (NIV)

Wisdom calls those with no sense
to walk with insight and live.

along the paths of justice,
21 bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me
and making their treasuries full.

Walking in the way of righteousness,
