箴言 1
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
箴言之妙用
1 以色列王大卫儿子所罗门的箴言。 2 要使人晓得智慧和训诲,分辨通达的言语, 3 使人处事领受智慧、仁义、公平、正直的训诲, 4 使愚人灵明,使少年人有知识和谋略, 5 使智慧人听见增长学问,使聪明人得着智谋, 6 使人明白箴言和譬喻,懂得智慧人的言辞和谜语。
勿从恶人之诱
7 敬畏耶和华是知识的开端,愚妄人藐视智慧和训诲。 8 我儿,要听你父亲的训诲,不可离弃你母亲的法则[a], 9 因为这要做你头上的华冠,你项上的金链。 10 我儿,恶人若引诱你,你不可随从。 11 他们若说:“你与我们同去,我们要埋伏流人之血,要蹲伏害无罪之人。 12 我们好像阴间,把他们活活吞下;他们如同下坑的人,被我们囫囵吞了。 13 我们必得各样宝物,将所掳来的装满房屋。 14 你与我们大家同分,我们共用一个囊袋”, 15 我儿,不要与他们同行一道,禁止你脚走他们的路。 16 因为他们的脚奔跑行恶,他们急速流人的血。 17 好像飞鸟,网罗设在眼前仍不躲避, 18 这些人埋伏是为自流己血,蹲伏是为自害己命。 19 凡贪恋财利的,所行之路都是如此,这贪恋之心乃夺去得财者之命。
愚者厌恶知识
20 智慧在街市上呼喊,在宽阔处发声, 21 在热闹街头喊叫,在城门口、在城中发出言语, 22 说:“你们愚昧人喜爱愚昧,亵慢人喜欢亵慢,愚顽人恨恶知识,要到几时呢? 23 你们当因我的责备回转,我要将我的灵浇灌你们,将我的话指示你们。 24 我呼唤,你们不肯听从,我伸手,无人理会, 25 反轻弃我一切的劝诫,不肯受我的责备。 26 你们遭灾难,我就发笑;惊恐临到你们,我必嗤笑。 27 惊恐临到你们好像狂风,灾难来到如同暴风,急难痛苦临到你们身上。 28 那时,你们必呼求我,我却不答应;恳切地寻找我,却寻不见。 29 因为你们恨恶知识,不喜爱敬畏耶和华, 30 不听我的劝诫,藐视我一切的责备, 31 所以必吃自结的果子,充满自设的计谋。
听从智言必享平康
32 “愚昧人背道,必杀己身;愚顽人安逸,必害己命。 33 唯有听从我的,必安然居住,得享安静,不怕灾祸。”

箴言 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
箴言的价值
1 这是大卫的儿子以色列王所罗门的箴言。
2 为使人认识智慧和教诲,
领悟真知灼见;
3 为使人接受劝诫,
为人处事仁义、公平、正直;
4 使愚昧人明智,
使青年有知识和明辨力;
5 使智者听了长学问,
明哲听了得指引;
6 使人领悟箴言和比喻,
明白智者的话和谜语。
7 知识始于敬畏耶和华,
愚人轻视智慧和教诲。
8 孩子啊,
你要听从父亲的教诲,
不可背弃母亲的训言。
9 因为这要作你头上的华冠,
颈上的项链。
10 孩子啊,恶人若引诱你,
千万不要听从。
11 他们若说:“跟我们来吧,
我们去埋伏杀人,
暗害无辜者取乐;
12 我们要像阴间一样生吞他们,
整个吞没他们,
使他们如坠入坟墓的人;
13 我们必得到各样宝物,
把战利品装满我们的房屋。
14 跟我们一起干吧,
大家有福同享!”
15 孩子啊,
不要走他们的道,
切莫行他们的路。
16 因为他们奔向罪恶,
急速地去杀人流血。
17 在飞鸟眼前设网罗,徒劳无功。
18 他们埋伏,却自流己血;
他们伏击,却自害己命。
19 这就是贪爱不义之财者的结局,
不义之财终要夺去他们的性命。
智慧的劝诫
20 智慧在大街上高喊,
在广场上扬声,
21 在热闹的市集宣告,
在城门口演说:
22 “你们愚昧人喜爱愚昧,
嘲讽者以嘲弄为乐,
无知者厌恶知识,
要到什么时候呢?
23 你们若因我的责备而回转,
我就向你们显明我的旨意[a],
叫你们明白我的话语。
24 我呼唤你们,
你们却充耳不闻;
我向你们招手,
你们却视若无睹。
25 你们漠视我的劝诫,
不接受我的责备。
26 因此,
你们遭遇灾难时,
我必发笑;
惊恐临到你们时,
我必嗤笑——
27 那时,恐惧如风暴袭击你们,
灾难如旋风临到你们,
忧愁和苦难吞没你们。
28 你们呼求我,
我也不回答;
你们恳切地寻找我,
却找不到。
29 因为你们厌恶知识,
不愿意敬畏耶和华,
30 不接受我的劝诫,
又藐视我的责备。
31 所以,你们必自食其果,
因自己的恶谋而吃尽苦头。
32 愚昧人背离正道,
自招灭亡;
愚顽人逍遥自在,
毁掉自己。
33 然而,那听从我的必安然居住,
得享安宁,
不怕灾祸。”

Mishle 1
Orthodox Jewish Bible
1 Mishlei Sh’lomo Ben Dovid, Melech Yisroel;
2 To have da’as of chochmah and musar (discipline); to understand the words of binah;
3 To receive the musar of those with seichel, tzedek and mishpat, and meisharim (equity, uprightness);
4 To give subtlety to the simple, to the na’ar, da’as and discretion.
5 A chacham (wise person) will hear, and will increase learning, and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 To understand a mashal (proverb), and the melitzah (enigma); the divrei chachamim, and their chidot (riddles).
7 The Yirat Hashem is the reshit da’as, but fools despise chochmah and musar.
8 Beni (my son), hear the musar Avicha, and forsake not the Torat Immecha.
9 For they shall be a garland of chen unto thy rosh, and a chain about thy neck.
10 Beni (my son), if chatt’aim (sinners) entice thee, consent thou not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lie in wait for dahm, let us lurk secretly for the naki (innocent, harmless) chinnom (without cause);
12 Let us swallow them up chayyim (alive) like She’ol; and whole, as those that go down into the bor (pit);
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill bateinu (our houses) with plunder;
14 Throw in thy goral (lot) among us; let all of us have kis echad (one pouch, purse).
15 Beni (my son), walk not thou in the derech with them; refrain thy regel from their path;
16 For their raglayim run to rah, and make haste for shefach dahm (shedding of blood).
17 Surely in vain the reshet (net) is spread in the eyes of kol ba’al kanaf (all the birds, i.e., lit. master of [the] wing);
18 And they lie in wait for their own dahm; they lurk secretly for their own nafshot.
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy for betza (ill-gotten gain); which taketh away the nefesh of the be’alim (owners) thereof.
20 Chochmot crieth out in the street; she lifts up her voice in the rechovot (city squares);
21 She crieth out in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the she’arim (gates); in the Ir (city) she uttereth her words, saying,
22 Ad mosai, ye simple ones, will ye love being simpletons? And the scoffers delight in their mockery, and kesilim (fools) hate da’as?
23 Turn you at my tokhechah (reproof); hinei, I will pour out my ruach unto you, I will make known my devarim unto you.
24 Because I have called, and ye refused, I have stretched out my yad, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have disdained all my etza (counsel), and would have none of my tokhechah (reproof);
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your pachad (terror) cometh;
27 When your pachad (terror) cometh like a storm, and your calamity cometh like a whirlwind; when tzarah (distress) and oppression cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall look for me diligently, but they shall not find me;
29 For that they hated da’as, and did not choose the Yirat Hashem;
30 They would have none of my etza (counsel); they despised all my tokhechah (reproof).
31 Therefore shall they eat of the p’ri (fruit) of their own derech, and be filled with their own mo’atzot (schemes, devices).
32 For the waywardness of the simple shall slay them, and the complacent contentment of kesilim (fools) shall destroy them.
33 But the one who payeth heed unto me [Chochmat Hashem, i.e., the Redemptive Word, not only Hashem’s creative agent (Ps 33:6; Prov 8:30; 30:4) but the one who comes with a healing mission according to Ps 107:20, though Moshiach has to die in the midst of his healing Mission to accomplish our healing from guilt and punitive dread-Isa 53:5] shall dwell safely, and shall be secure from pachad ra’ah (terror of evil).
Proverbs 1
King James Version
1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,
22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
