箴言:Chapter 3

箴言	Proverbs
¹我儿，不要忘了我的法律，该诚心恪守我的诫命，	¹My son,do not forget my instruction, my commands; keep them in your heart.
²因为这样能使你延年益寿，也能增加你的康宁。	²For they will bring you length of days, years of life and peace.
³不要让慈祥和忠实离弃你，要将她们系在你的颈上，刻在你的心版上；	³Let loyalty and kindness never leave you; tie them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart,
⁴这样，你在天主和世人面前，必获得宠幸和恩爱。	⁴that you may find favor and a good name in the eyes of God and man.
⁵你应全心信赖上主，总不要依赖自己的聪明；	⁵Trust in Yahweh with all your heart; do not rely on your own insight.
⁶应步步体会上主，他必修平你的行径。	⁶Let his presence pervade all your ways and he will protect your foot from the snare.
⁷不要自作聪明，应敬畏上主，远避邪恶；	⁷Do not consider yourself wise, fear God, and turn away from evil.
⁸如此，你的身体必会康健，你的骨骼也会舒适。	⁸This will be a medicine to your body and a relief to your bones.
⁹应以你的财物和一切初熟之物，去尊崇上主；	⁹Honor Yahweh, giving him from what you have, the first fruits of all your produce.
¹⁰这样，你的仓廪必充满粮食，你的榨酒池必盈溢新酒。	¹⁰Then your barns will be filled to overflowing, your vats will brim over with wine.
¹¹我儿，不要轻视上主的惩戒，也不要厌恶他的谴责，	¹¹My son, do not scorn the discipline of Yahweh; do not ignore his correction.
¹²因为上主谴责他所爱的，有如父亲谴责他的爱子。	¹²For Yahweh corrects those he loves, as a father does his beloved son.
¹³寻得智慧和获取睿智的人是有福的，	¹³Happy the one who finds wisdom and gains insight.
¹⁴因为赚得智慧胜于赚得银钱；智慧的果实胜于纯金。	¹⁴For she is of more value than silver and more useful than gold.
¹⁵智慧比珍珠还要宝贵；凡你所贪求的，都不足以与她伦比。	¹⁵She is more precious than pearls; nothing you could wish for would compare with her.
¹⁶在她右边是延年益寿，在她左边是富贵荣华。	¹⁶With her right hand she offers you length of days, with her left, riches and glory.
¹⁷她的道路是康乐之道，她的行径是一片安宁。	¹⁷She leads you through delightful ways; all her roads are peace.
¹⁸她为掌握她的人，是一株生命树；凡坚持她的，必将纳福。	¹⁸She is a tree of life for those who clasp her; those who possess her are happy.
¹⁹上主以智慧奠定了大地，以睿智坚定了高天；	¹⁹It is by his wisdom that Yahweh founded the earth; by his understanding that he made firm the heavens.
²⁰赖他的智识，深渊才裂口喷水，云彩才降下甘露。	²⁰By his knowledge the depths were scooped out, and the clouds rained down dew.
²¹我儿，你应保持明智和慎重，不要让她们离开你的视线：	²¹My son, hold on to sound judgment and discretion and do not let them out of your sight.
²²二者应是你心灵的生命，是你颈项的华饰；	²²They will give life to your inner self, and adorn your neck.
²³这样，你走路必感安全，你的脚不致绊倒。	²³Then you can go your way safely and your foot will not stumble.
²⁴你若坐下，必无所恐惧；你若躺下，必睡得甘甜。	²⁴You will have no fear when you lie down and your sleep will be peaceful.
²⁵你决不怕骤然而来的恐怖，也不怕恶人突然而至的摧残，	²⁵You will not fear sudden terror or the attack of evildoers.
²⁶因为上主将要护佑你，使你的脚远离陷阱。	²⁶For Yahweh is at your side and he guards your steps from the snare.
²⁷你若有能力作到，不要拒绝向有求于你的人行善；	²⁷Do not hold back from those who ask your help, when it is in your power to do it.
²⁸如果你能即刻作到，不要对你的近人说：「去！明天再来，我才给你。」	²⁸Do not say to your neighbor, "Go away! Come another time; tomorrow I will give it to you!" when you can help him now.
²⁹几时你的近人安心与你居住，你不应暗算他。	²⁹Do not plot evil against your neighbor who lives trustingly beside you,
³⁰若他人没有加害你，你不应与他无端争辩。	³⁰nor fight a man without cause when he has done you no wrong.
³¹不要羡慕强暴的人，更不要选择他的任何行径，	³¹Do not envy the man of violence or follow his example.
³²因为上主厌恶乖戾的人，挚爱正直的人。	³²For Yahweh hates the wicked but guides the honest.
³³上主诅咒恶人的住宅，祝福义人的寓所。	³³He curses the house of the evildoer but blesses the home of the upright.
³⁴上主嘲弄好愚弄的人，却宠爱谦卑的人。	³⁴If there are mockers, he mocks them in turn but he shows his favor to the humble. The wise will possess his glory while the foolish will inherit disgrace.
³⁵智慧的人必承受尊荣，愚昧的人必蒙受羞辱。	³⁵
