To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The verb is used in a good sense in many of the passages. So Meliz is an interpreter a neutral sense, at least, in 2Ch 32, 31 ; Isaiah 43, 27; Genesis 42, 43. The use in Job 33, 23 is a decidedly good use of the word. In Proverbs 9, 12 in a rather connected extract, for wisdom is there represented as addressing her audience, we have nosn DN Kn inn'? ns^i ^ noun Frankenberg* 101 renders "Wenn du weise bist, bist du's dir zu Nutze, and wenn du ein Spot- ter bist, hast du's allein zu tragen. " Toy...* 108 has "If thou art wise thou art wise for thyself, and if thou art a scoffer thou alone must bear the consequences. " Wilde- boer* 103 translates "Bist du ein Spotter. " Now the con- text must be taken into consideration in this passage. We have here a picture in two sections. Wisdom personified speaks, and tries to influence her hearers. Folly, too, is per- sonified. In verse 12 (whether 7-12 belongs originally to Hochmah and is a part of her address or was later slipped in or a transition is immaterial to the argument* 104 ) we have the statement on the part of wisdom or on the part of the interpolator, that the choice must be made and the con- sequences, good or bad, come naturally.
