|---|---|
| 1智慧之子，聽從父親的教訓；輕狂的人，不聽任何人規勸。 | 11An intelligent son listens to his father's advice, but a mocker listens to no correction. |
| 2義人必飽嘗自己口舌的果實，惡人的慾望只有飽食強暴。 | 2A man can taste goodness from the fruit of his own mouth, but the treacherous feed on violence. |
| 3謹口慎言，方能自保性命；信口開河，終必自取滅亡。 | 3He who guards his mouth preserves his life, the constant talker is lost. |
| 4懶人雖常盼望，卻一無所得；勤勞的人，卻常如願以償。 | 4The lazy man hopes but his desires are in vain, whereas hard workers have their desires fulfilled. |
| 5義人憎惡謊言，惡人令人可憎可惡。 | 5The upright man hates lying words but the evildoer slanders and defames. |
| 6正義保衛行為正直的人，邪惡卻使罪人滅亡。 | 6Virtue protects men of honest life; while sin brings ruin to the wicked. |
| 7有人自充富人，其實一貧如洗；有人佯作窮人，其實腰纏萬貫。 | 7One pretends to be rich but has nothing, another, of great wealth, feigns poverty. |
| 8富人的錢財只是性命的贖價，窮人卻沒有這樣的威脅。 | 8A man's wealth lets him ransom his life but the poor man has nothing with which to do so. |
| 9義人的光明，必要高升；惡人的燈火，勢必熄滅。 | 9The light of the virtuous is bright, the lamp of the godless is extinguished. |
| 10傲慢只有引起爭端，虛心受教的人纔有智慧。 | 10Arrogance only brings trouble; wisdom is found in those who take advice. |
| 11儻來之物，容易消逝；經久積存，日漸增多。 | 11Sudden riches will decrease, he who gathers little by little will be enriched. |
| 12希望遲不兌現，令人心神煩惱；願望獲得滿足，像株生命樹。 | 12Delayed hope makes the heart languish, but desire fulfilled is a tree of life. |
| 13誰輕視法令，必遭滅亡；誰敬畏誡命，必得安全。 | 13The one who scorns teaching will be in want, those who respect the commandment will be rewarded. |
| 14智慧人的教訓是生命的泉源，人可賴以脫免死亡的羅網。 | 14The wise man's teaching is a life-giving fountain for escaping the snares of death. |
| 15明哲的規勸，使人蒙恩，殘暴人的舉止，粗魯蠻橫。 | 15Prudent intelligence wins favor, the way of liars leads nowhere. |
| 16精明的人，常按理智行事；愚昧的人，只自誇其糊塗。 | 16Every prudent man acts with reflection, the fool parades his stupidity. |
| 17奸侫的使者，使人陷於災禍；忠誠的使者，給人帶來安和。 | 17A wicked messenger falls on misfortune, the reliable one brings healing. |
| 18拒絕規勸的，必遭貧苦羞辱；接受懲戒的，反要受人尊敬。 | 18Poverty and shame to the one who rejects correction; honor to him who accepts rebuke. |
| 19願望獲得滿足，能使心靈愉快；遠離邪惡，卻為愚昧人所深惡。 | 19Desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul; but fools spurn rejection of evil. |
| 20與智慧人往來，可成智慧人；與愚昧人作伴，必受其連累。 | 20Walk with the wise and you will gain wisdom; those who befriend fools become wicked. |
| 21惡運追蹤罪人，義人卻得善報。 | 21Misfortune hounds the sinner, while the upright abound in good fortune. |
| 22善人為子子孫孫留下產業，罪人的財富是為義人積蓄。 | 22A good man's inheritance is for his children's children, a sinner's wealth will be kept for the virtuous. |
| 23窮人開墾的田地，生產大量食物；誰若缺乏正義，定不免於滅亡。 | 23The tillage of the poor supplies food, while others perish because of their lack of righteousness. |
| 24不肯使用棍杖的人，實是恨自己的兒子，真愛兒子的人，必時加以懲罰。 | 24Unloved is the child whom the father hates to punish; the loving father frequently corrects. |
| 25義人必得飽食，惡人無以果腹。 | 25The upright man eats his fill, while the stomach of the wicked goes hungry. |
