2. A father teaches his son about wisdom (1:8–9:18) * Avoid evil companions (1:8–19) * Do not reject wisdom (1:20–33) * Wisdom prevents people from committing crime or adultery (2:1–22) * Humbly trust Yahweh (3:1–12) * The value of wisdom (3:13–20) * Do not act wickedly (3:21–35) * Wisdom will benefit you (4:1–9) * Behave wisely and avoid those who do not (4:10–19) * Live righteously (4:20–27) * Avoid temptation to commit adultery (5:1–23) * Practical warnings (6:1–19) * Adultery will be punished (6:20–35) * The Story of an Adulterer (7:1–27) * Wisdom benefits the wise (8:1–36) * Wisdom and folly (9:1–18)
In this chapter and the previous chapter, wisdom is referred to as if it were a woman who prepares a meal and calls out for all to come and learn from her. In languages where it is possible for something like wisdom to be spoken of as if it were a person who speaks, the translator should translate in this way. However, if direct translation is not possible in your language, you may translate the personification as similes instead. In that case, wisdom would be presented as being like a wise woman. When wisdom speaks in 9:4–12, the notes will use the proper noun “Wisdom” to indicate that the personification of wisdom is speaking. See how you translated similar references to wisdom in 1:20–33 and 8:4–36. (See: figs-personification)
