Folly Tempts The Godless To Destroy Them
Proverbs 9:14-16a (NIV)

14 She sits at the door of her house,
on a seat at the highest point of the city,
15 calling out to those who pass by,
who go straight on their way,
16a “Let all who are simple come to my house!”

Proverbs Club Commentary

The Fool is ignorant and knows nothing of wisdom.
He is easily drawn by temptation, which is ever-present.

Fools, in scripture, are godless people.
That is why they are content
with wasting their lives.
