1LA sabiduría edificó su casa, labró sus siete columnas;
1Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars;
2Mató sus víctimas, templó su vino, y puso su mesa.
2She hath prepared her meat, she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
3Envió sus criadas; sobre lo más alto de la ciudad clamó:
3She hath sent forth her maidens, she calleth, upon the highest places of the city:
4Cualquiera simple, venga acá. A los faltos de cordura dijo:
4'Whoso is thoughtless, let him turn in hither'; as for him that lacketh understanding, she saith to him:
5Venid, comed mi pan, y bebed del vino que yo he templado.
5'Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
6Dejad las simplezas, y vivid; y andad por el camino de la inteligencia.
6Forsake all thoughtlessness, and live; and walk in the way of understanding.
7El que corrige al escarnecedor, afrenta se acarrea: el que reprende al impío, se atrae mancha.
7He that correcteth a scorner getteth to himself shame, and he that reproveth a wicked man, it becometh unto him a blot.
8No reprendas al escarnecedor, porque no te aborrezca; corrige al sabio, y te amará.
8Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee; reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.
9Da al sabio, y será más sabio: enseña al justo, y acrecerá su saber.
9Give to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
10El temor de Jehová es el principio de la sabiduría; y la ciencia de los santos es inteligencia.
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the All-holy is understanding.
11Porque por mí se aumentarán tus días, y años de vida se te añadirán.
11For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
12Si fueres sabio, para ti lo serás: mas si fueres escarnecedor, pagarás tú solo.
12If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.'
13La mujer loca es alborotadora; es simple é ignorante.
13The woman Folly is riotous; she is thoughtless, and knoweth nothing.
14Siéntase en una silla á la puerta de su casa, en lo alto de la ciudad,
14And she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
15Para llamar á los que pasan por el camino, que van por sus caminos derechos.
15To call to them that pass by, who go right on their ways:
16Cualquiera simple, dice , venga acá. A los faltos de cordura dijo:
16'Whoso is thoughtless, let him turn in hither'; and as for him that lacketh understanding, she saith to him:
17Las aguas hurtadas son dulces, y el pan comido en oculto es suave.
17'Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.'
18Y no saben que allí están los muertos; que sus convidados están en los profundos de la sepultura.
18But he knoweth not that the shades are there; that her guests are in the depths of the nether-world.
