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。”

Why Proverbs Is Important
1 These are the wise words of Solomon son of David. Solomon was king of Israel.
2 They teach wisdom and self-control.
They give understanding.
3 They will teach you how to be wise and self-controlled.
They will teach you what is honest and fair and right.
4 They give the ability to think to those with little knowledge.
They give knowledge and good sense to the young.
5 Wise people should also listen to them and learn even more.
Even they can find good advice in these words.
6 Then they will be able to understand wise words and stories.
They will understand the words of wise men and their riddles.
7 Knowledge begins with respect for the Lord.
But foolish people hate wisdom and discipline.
Warnings Against Evil
8 My child, listen to your father’s teaching.
And do not forget your mother’s advice.
9 Their teaching will beautify your life.
It will be like flowers in your hair or a chain around your neck.
10 My child, sinners will try to lead you into sin.
But do not follow them.
11 They might say, “Come with us.
Let’s ambush and kill someone.
Let’s attack some harmless person just for fun.
12 Let’s swallow them alive, as death does.
Let’s swallow them whole, as the grave does.
13 We will take all kinds of valuable things.
We will fill our houses with what we steal.
14 Come join us,
and we will share with you what we steal.”
15 My child, do not go along with them.
Do not do what they do.
16 They run to do evil.
They are quick to kill.
17 It is useless to spread out a net
right where the birds can see it!
18 These men are setting their own trap.
They will only catch themselves!
19 All greedy people end up this way.
Greed takes away the life of the greedy person.
Wisdom Speaks
20 Wisdom is like a good woman who shouts in the street.
She raises her voice in the city squares.
21 She cries out in the noisy street.
She makes her speech at the city gates:
22 “You foolish people! How long do you want to stay foolish?
How long will you make fun of wisdom?
How long will you hate knowledge?
23 Listen when I correct you.
I will tell you what’s in my heart.
I will tell you what I am thinking.
24 I called, but you refused to listen.
I held out my hand, but you paid no attention.
25 You did not follow my advice.
You did not want me to correct you.
26 So I will laugh when you are in trouble.
I will make fun when disaster happens to you.
27 Disaster will come over you like a storm.
Trouble will strike you like a whirlwind.
Pain and trouble will overwhelm you.
28 “Then you will call out to me.
But I will not answer.
You will look for me.
But you will not find me.
29 You rejected knowledge.
You did not choose to respect the Lord.
30 You did not accept my advice.
You rejected my correction.
31 So you will get what you deserve.
You will get what you planned for others.
32 Fools wander away and get killed.
They are destroyed because they do not care.
33 But those who listen to me will live in safety.
They will be safe, without fear of being hurt.”

Purpose and Theme
1 The proverbs(A) of Solomon(B) son of David, king of Israel:(C)
2 for gaining wisdom and instruction;
for understanding words of insight;
3 for receiving instruction in prudent behavior,
doing what is right and just and fair;
4 for giving prudence to those who are simple,[a](D)
knowledge and discretion(E) to the young—
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,(F)
and let the discerning get guidance—
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,(G)
the sayings and riddles(H) of the wise.[b](I)
7 The fear of the Lord(J) is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools[c] despise wisdom(K) and instruction.(L)
Prologue: Exhortations to Embrace Wisdom
Warning Against the Invitation of Sinful Men
8 Listen, my son,(M) to your father’s(N) instruction
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.(O)
9 They are a garland to grace your head
and a chain to adorn your neck.(P)
10 My son, if sinful men entice(Q) you,
do not give in(R) to them.(S)
11 If they say, “Come along with us;
let’s lie in wait(T) for innocent blood,
let’s ambush some harmless soul;
12 let’s swallow(U) them alive, like the grave,
and whole, like those who go down to the pit;(V)
13 we will get all sorts of valuable things
and fill our houses with plunder;
14 cast lots with us;
we will all share the loot(W)”—
15 my son, do not go along with them,
do not set foot(X) on their paths;(Y)
16 for their feet rush into evil,(Z)
they are swift to shed blood.(AA)
17 How useless to spread a net
where every bird can see it!
18 These men lie in wait(AB) for their own blood;
they ambush only themselves!(AC)
19 Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain;
it takes away the life of those who get it.(AD)
Wisdom’s Rebuke
20 Out in the open wisdom calls aloud,(AE)
she raises her voice in the public square;
21 on top of the wall[d] she cries out,
at the city gate she makes her speech:
22 “How long will you who are simple(AF) love your simple ways?
How long will mockers delight in mockery
and fools hate(AG) knowledge?
23 Repent at my rebuke!
Then I will pour out my thoughts to you,
I will make known to you my teachings.
24 But since you refuse(AH) to listen when I call(AI)
and no one pays attention(AJ) when I stretch out my hand,
25 since you disregard all my advice
and do not accept my rebuke,
26 I in turn will laugh(AK) when disaster(AL) strikes you;
I will mock(AM) when calamity overtakes you(AN)—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster(AO) sweeps over you like a whirlwind,
when distress and trouble overwhelm you.
28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer;(AP)
they will look for me but will not find me,(AQ)
29 since they hated knowledge
and did not choose to fear the Lord.(AR)
30 Since they would not accept my advice
and spurned my rebuke,(AS)
31 they will eat the fruit of their ways
and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.(AT)
32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,
and the complacency of fools will destroy them;(AU)
33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety(AV)
and be at ease, without fear of harm.”(AW)
