For by me, your days will be multiplied and years of life will be added to you.
If you would be wise, you will be so for yourself. But if you would be one who ridicules, you alone shall carry the evil.
A foolish and loud woman, who is full of enticements and who knows nothing at all,
sat at the entrance of her house on a seat, in a high place of the city,
so as to call to those who were passing by the way and continuing on their journey:
“Whoever is little, let him turn aside to me.” And to the frenzied, she said,
“Stolen waters are more soothing, and secret bread is more pleasant.”
