Proverbs 9:5 in context
- 3She has sent out her maidens.
She cries from the highest places of the city: - 4“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
As for him who is void of understanding, she says to him, - 5“Come, eat some of my bread,
Drink some of the wine which I have mixed! - 6Leave your simple ways, and live.
Walk in the way of understanding.” - 7One who corrects a mocker invites insult.
One who reproves a wicked man invites abuse.
