³ By wisdom a house is built,
    and by understanding it is established.

⁷ Wisdom is too high for fools;
    at the gate he will not open his mouth.

¹³ My child, eat honey, for it is good,
    and the dripping of the honeycomb is sweet to your taste.
¹⁴ Thus know wisdom for the sake of your soul,^[a]
    if you find it, then there is a future,
    and your hope will not be cut off.
