| 箴言 | Proverbs |
|---|---|
| 1人若屢受譴責，仍然頑固，他必突然喪亡，無法挽救。 | 1The man who remains stiff-necked and hates rebuke will be crushed suddenly beyond cure. |
| 2義人執政，人民喜慶；惡人專權，人民嘆息。 | 2When the just prevail, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan. |
| 3喜愛智慧的，使父親喜悅；尋花問柳的，必傾家蕩產。 | 3He who loves wisdom makes his father glad, but he who consorts with harlots squanders his wealth. |
| 4君王秉公行義，必將興邦；但若暴歛橫徵，必將喪邦。 | 4By justice a king gives stability to the land; but he who imposes heavy taxes ruins it. |
| 5對自己的友伴阿諛的人，是在他腳下張設羅網。 | 5The man who flatters his neighbor is spreading a net under his feet. |
| 6作惡的人，滿路絆索；正義的人，載欣載奔。 | 6The wicked man steps into a snare, but the just man runs on joyfully. |
| 7義人關注窮人的案情，但是惡人卻毫不知情。 | 7The just man has a care for the rights of the poor; the wicked man has no such concern. |
| 8輕狂的人，煽動城市作亂；明智的人，設法挽回狂瀾。 | 8Arrogant men set the city ablaze, but wise men calm the fury. |
| 9智愚爭辯，或怒或笑，終無結果。 | 9If a wise man disputes with a fool, he may rage or laugh but can have no peace. |
| 10嗜殺的人，常憎恨正人君子；正直的人，卻關懷他的性命。 | 10Bloodthirsty men hate the honest man, but the upright show concern for his life. |
| 11愚人忿怒，必盡情發洩；明智的人，必自知抑制。 | 11The fool gives vent to all his anger; but by biding his time, the wise man calms it. |
| 12作首長的，如聽信讒言，他的臣僕，必盡屬小人。 | 12If a ruler listens to lying words, his servants all become wicked. |
| 13窮人與壓迫者彼此相遇，二者皆由主獲得光明。 | 13The poor and the oppressor have a common bond: the LORD gives light to the eyes of both. |
| 14君王如秉公審判窮人，他的寶座必永久穩立。 | 14If a king is zealous for the rights of the poor, his throne stands firm forever. |
| 15杖責與懲戒，賜予人智慧；嬌縱的孩子，使母親受辱。 | 15The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a boy left to his whims disgraces his mother. |
| 16惡人掌權，罪惡隨之增多；正義的人，必親見其崩潰。 | 16When the wicked prevail, crime increases; but their downfall the just will behold. |
| 17懲戒你的兒子，他必使你安心，令你心曠神怡。 | 17Correct your son, and he will bring you comfort, and give delight to your soul. |
| 18神視缺乏時，人民必放縱；遵守法律的，纔蒙受祝福。 | 18Without prophecy the people become demoralized; but happy is he who keeps the law. |
| 19要糾正奴才，不宜用言語；即使他明白，他仍不服從。 | 19By words no servant can be trained; for he understands what is said, but obeys not. |
| 20你是否見過信口開河的人？寄望於愚人勝於寄望於他。 | 20Do you see a man hasty in his words? More can be hoped for from a fool! |
| 21對奴才自幼加以嬌養，他日後終必反僕為主。 | 21If a man pampers his servant from childhood, he will turn out to be stubborn. |
| 22易怒的人，極易引起紛爭；性急的人，必犯很多過錯。 | 22An ill-tempered man stirs up disputes, and a hotheaded man is the cause of many sins. |
| 23驕傲自大，使人屈辱；虛心謙下，使人受榮。 | 23Man's pride causes his humiliation, but he who is humble of spirit obtains honor. |
| 24誰與盜賊合夥，實是痛恨自己；他雖聽見咀咒，卻不敢發一言。 | 24The accomplice of a thief is his own enemy: he hears himself put under a curse, yet discloses nothing. |
| 25對人畏懼，必陷入羈絆；信賴上主，必獲得安全。 | 25The fear of man brings a snare, but he who trusts in the LORD is safe. |
| 26許多人尋求王侯的慈惠，但每人的判決出自上主。 | 26Many curry favor with the ruler, but the rights of each are from the LORD. |
| 27為非作歹的人，為義人所憎惡；行為正直的人，為惡人所憎惡。 | 27The evildoer is an abomination to the just, and he who walks uprightly is an abomination to the wicked. |
