| 箴言 | Proverbs |
|---|---|
| 1溫和的回答，平息忿怒；激昂的言語，使人動怒。 | 1A mild answer calms wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. |
| 2智慧者的舌，廣傳智慧；愚昧人的口，吐露愚昧。 | 2The tongue of the wise pours out knowledge, but the mouth of fools spurts forth folly. |
| 3上主的眼目，處處都在；善人和惡人，他都監視。 | 3The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good. |
| 4撫慰的言辭，有如生命樹；刻薄的言語，能刺傷人心。 | 4A soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse one crushes the spirit. |
| 5愚蠢的人，輕視父親的管教；遵守規勸的，為人必精明。 | 5The fool spurns his father's admonition, but prudent is he who heeds reproof. |
| 6在義人家裏，財產豐富；惡人的收入，必遭毀滅。 | 6In the house of the just there are ample resources, but the earnings of the wicked are in turmoil. |
| 7智慧人的唇，散播智識；愚昧人的心，實不可靠。 | 7The lips of the wise disseminate knowledge, but the heart of fools is perverted. |
| 8上主厭惡惡人的祭獻，卻喜悅正直人的祈禱。 | 8The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is his delight. |
| 9上主厭惡惡人的道路，卻喜愛追求正義的人。 | 9The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves the man who pursues virtue. |
| 10離棄正道的，必遭嚴罰；憎恨規勸的，只有死亡。 | 10Severe punishment is in store for the man who goes astray; he who hates reproof will die. |
| 11陰府和冥域，都明擺在上主面前，何況世人的心懷！ | 11The nether world and the abyss lie open before the LORD; how much more the hearts of men! |
| 12輕狂者不愛受人指責，也不願與智慧人往來。 | 12The senseless man loves not to be reproved; to wise men he will not go. |
| 13心中愉快，使面容煥發，心中悲傷，精神即頹喪。 | 13A glad heart lights up the face, but by mental anguish the spirit is broken. |
| 14明達人的心，尋求智識；愚昧人的口，飽食昏愚。 | 14The mind of the intelligent man seeks knowledge, but the mouth of fools feeds on folly. |
| 15心情憂傷的，日日困坐愁城；心胸暢快的，時時如享喜宴。 | 15Every day is miserable for the depressed, but a lighthearted man has a continual feast. |
| 16少有財寶而敬畏上主，勝於富有財寶而諸多煩惱。 | 16Better a little with fear of the LORD than a great fortune with anxiety. |
| 17有情吃蔬菜，勝於無情食肥牛。 | 17Better a dish of herbs where love is than a fatted ox and hatred with it. |
| 18易怒的人，常引起爭端；含忍的人，卻平息爭論。 | 18An ill-tempered man stirs up strife, but a patient man allays discord. |
| 19懶惰人的道路，有如荊棘籬笆；正直人的行徑，卻是康莊大道。 | 19The way of the sluggard is hemmed in as with thorns, but the path of the diligent is a highway. |
| 20智慧的兒子，是父親的喜樂；只有愚昧人，輕視自己的母親。 | 20A wise son makes his father glad, but a fool of a man despises his mother. |
| 21無知的人，以愚昧為樂；明智的人，卻直道而行。 | 21Folly is joy to the senseless man, but the man of understanding goes the straight way. |
| 22缺乏考慮，計劃必要失敗；謀士眾多，策略方克有成。 | 22Plans fail when there is no counsel, but they succeed when counselors are many. |
| 23應對得當，自覺快慰；言語適時，何其舒暢！ | 23There is joy for a man in his utterance; a word in season, how good it is! |
| 24生命之路使明智人向上，為此他能避免向下的陰府。 | 24The path of life leads the prudent man upward, that he may avoid the nether world below. |
| 25上主將拆毀驕傲人的房屋，卻要堅定寡婦的地界。 | 25The LORD overturns the house of the proud, but he preserves intact the widow's landmark. |
| 26邪惡的陰謀，為上主所憎惡；溫良的言語，卻為他所喜悅。 | 26The wicked man's schemes are an abomination to the LORD, but the pure speak what is pleasing to him. |
| 27貪求財貨的，困擾自己的家庭；憎惡饋贈的，生活必能安定。 | 27He who is greedy of gain brings ruin on his own house, but he who hates bribes will live. |
| 28義人的心，只默思善事；惡人的口，只吐露惡語。 | 28The just man weighs well his utterance, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil. |
| 29上主遠離惡人，卻俯聽義人的祈禱。 | 29The LORD is far from the wicked, but the prayer of the just he hears. |
| 30晶瑩的目光，使人心曠神怡；美好的訊息，使人筋骨壯健。 | 30A cheerful glance brings joy to the heart; good news invigorates the bones. |
| 31喜聽有益生命勸戒的人，必得列於智慧人的中間。 | 31He who listens to salutary reproof will abide among the wise. |
| 32避免教導的，是作賤自己；聽從規勸的，必獲得機智。 | 32He who rejects admonition despises his own soul, but he who heeds reproof gains understanding. |
| 33敬畏上主，是智慧的導師；謙卑自下，是榮耀的先聲。 | 33The fear of the LORD is training for wisdom, and humility goes before honors. |
