1 Wisdom has built her house; she has carved out her seven pillars. 2 She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine; she has also set her table. 3 She has sent out her maidservants; she calls out from the heights of the city. 4 “Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!” she says to him who lacks judgment. 5 “Come, eat my bread and drink the wine I have mixed. 6 Leave your folly behind, and you will live; walk in the way of understanding.” 7 He who corrects a mocker brings shame on himself; he who rebukes a wicked man taints himself. 8 Do not rebuke a mocker, or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man, and he will love you. 9 Instruct a wise man, and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man, and he will increase his learning. 10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. 11 For through wisdom your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life. 12 If you are wise, you are wise to your own advantage; but if you scoff, you alone will bear the consequences. 13 The woman named Folly is loud; she is naive and knows nothing. 14 She sits at the door of her house, on a seat in the heights of the city, 15 calling out to those who pass by, who make their paths straight. 16 “Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!” she says to him who lacks judgment. 17 “Stolen water is sweet, and bread eaten in secret is tasty!” 18 But they do not know that the dead are there, that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
Now, "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;" the sense of sin leads to repentance, and God bestows His compassion upon those who are penitent.
Woe, woe, by what steps was I dragged down "to the depths of hell!" --toiling and turmoiling through want of Truth, when I sought after Thee, my God,--to Thee I confess it, who hadst mercy on me when I had not yet confessed,--sought after Thee not according to the understanding of the mind, in which Thou desiredst that I should …

With respect to the star, we have said these things, and yet more perhaps may be said by you; for, it is said, "Give occasion to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser:" but we must now come to the beginning of what hath been read.

I came upon that bold woman, who "is simple, and knoweth nothing," the enigma of Solomon, sitting "at the door of the house on a seat," and saying, "Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant." This woman seduced me, because she found my soul beyond its portals, dwelling in the eye of my flesh, and thinking …
