9:13 愚昧的婦人喧嚷;她是愚蒙,一無所知。
9:14 她坐在自己的家門口,坐在城中高處的座位上,
9:15 呼叫過路的,就是直行其道的人,
9:16 說:誰是愚蒙人,可以轉到這裡來!又對那無知的人說:
9:17 偷來的水是甜的,暗吃的餅是好的。
9:18 人卻不知有陰魂在她那裡;她的客在陰間的深處。

13 Folly is an unruly woman;
she is simple and knows nothing.
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,
16 “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
To those who have no sense she says,
17 “Stolen water is sweet;
food eaten in secret is delicious!”
18 But little do they know that the dead are there,
that her guests are deep in the realm of the dead.
she is simple and knows nothing.

「智慧」會呼召人就近,「愚昧」也照樣會呼召人,並且也有台詞:「誰是愚蒙人,可以轉到這裡來!」、「偷來的水是甜的,暗吃的餅是好的。」
然而聽「愚昧」的話,下場就是落到陰間!因為「愚昧」使人遠離上帝,遠離上帝就是死亡,死亡的歸處就是陰間。所以,要救自己生命的人,一定不要聽從「愚昧」的話,不要受到引誘,歸向「愚昧」。
當然消極的方法是逃避,積極的方法就是好好聽「智慧」的話語,歸向「智慧」。那我們如何可以分別「智慧」和「愚昧」的話?就是透過聖靈的引導,如此就可以遠離「愚昧」的話。
