Proverbs 7:4–5

Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”

and to insight, “You are my relative.”

They will keep you from the adulterous woman,

from the wayward woman with her seductive words.

Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”

and call understanding your relative.

She will keep you from a forbidden woman,

a wayward woman with her flattering talk.

Love wisdom like a sister;

make insight a beloved member of your family.

Let them protect you from an affair with an immoral woman,

from listening to the flattery of a promiscuous woman.

Say to wisdom, “you are my sister,”

and you shall call insight, “intimate friend.”

In order to guard yourself from an adulteress,

from the foreigner who makes her words smooth.

Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister;

And call understanding thy kinswoman:

That they may keep thee from the strange woman,

From the stranger which flattereth with her words.
