箴言 2
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
智慧使人認識 神
2 我兒,如果你接受我的話,
把我的誡命珍藏在心裡,
2 留心聽智慧,
致力求聰明;
3 如果你為求哲理而呼喊,
為求聰明而揚聲;
4 如果你尋找它如同尋找銀子,
搜尋它好像搜尋寶藏;
5 你就明白怎樣敬畏耶和華,
並且獲得對 神的認識。
6 因為耶和華賜人智慧,
知識和聰明都出自他的口。
7 他為正直人珍藏大智慧,
給行為完全的人作盾牌;
8 為要看顧正直人的路徑,
護衛虔誠人的道路。
9 這樣,你就明白公義、公正、正直,
以及一切善道。
智慧使人行走義路
10 智慧必進入你的心,
知識必使你歡悅。
11 明辨的能力必護衛你,
聰明必看顧你;
12 要救你脫離邪惡的道路,
脫離說話乖謬的人。
13 那些人離棄正道,
走上黑暗的道路。
14 他們喜歡行惡,
喜悅惡人的乖謬。
15 他們的道路彎曲,
他們的行徑偏離正道。
16 智慧要救你脫離淫婦,
脫離說諂媚話的妓女。
17 她離棄年輕時的配偶,
忘記了 神的約;
18 她的家陷入死地,
她的路徑下落陰間。
19 凡是進到她那裡去的,都不能轉回,
必得不著生路。
20 因此,智慧必使你走在良善人的道上,
持守義人的路。
21 因為正直人必在地上安居,
完全人必在世上存留;
22 但惡人必從地上除滅,
行事奸詐的必從世上拔除。
Proverbs 2
New King James Version
The Value of Wisdom
2 My son, if you receive my words,
And (A)treasure my commands within you,
2 So that you incline your ear to wisdom,
And apply your heart to understanding;
3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment,
And lift up your voice for understanding,
4 (B)If you seek her as silver,
And search for her as for hidden treasures;
5 (C)Then you will understand the fear of the Lord,
And find the knowledge of God.
6 (D)For the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
(E)He is a shield to those who walk uprightly;
8 He guards the paths of justice,
And (F)preserves the way of His saints.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path.
10 When wisdom enters your heart,
And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
11 Discretion will preserve you;
(G)Understanding will keep you,
12 To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things,
13 From those who leave the paths of uprightness
To (H)walk in the ways of darkness;
14 (I)Who rejoice in doing evil,
And delight in the perversity of the wicked;
15 (J)Whose ways are crooked,
And who are devious in their paths;
16 To deliver you from (K)the immoral woman,
(L)From the seductress who flatters with her words,
17 Who forsakes the companion of her youth,
And forgets the covenant of her God.
18 For (M)her house [a]leads down to death,
And her paths to the dead;
19 None who go to her return,
Nor do they [b]regain the paths of life—
20 So you may walk in the way of goodness,
And keep to the paths of righteousness.
21 For the upright will dwell in the (N)land,
And the blameless will remain in it;
22 But the wicked will be [c]cut off from the [d]earth,
And the unfaithful will be uprooted from it.

English Standard Version
The Value of Wisdom
2 (A)My son, (B)if you receive my words
and treasure up my commandments with you,
2 making your ear attentive to wisdom
and inclining your heart to understanding;
3 yes, if you call out for insight
and raise your voice (C)for understanding,
4 if you seek it like (D)silver
and search for it as for (E)hidden treasures,
5 then (F)you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
6 For (G)the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7 he stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
he is (H)a shield to those who (I)walk in integrity,
8 guarding the paths of justice
and (J)watching over the way of his (K)saints.
9 (L)Then you will understand (M)righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path;
10 for wisdom will come into your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
11 (N)discretion will (O)watch over you,
understanding will guard you,
12 delivering you from the way of evil,
from men of perverted speech,
13 who forsake the paths of uprightness
to (P)walk in the ways of darkness,
14 who (Q)rejoice in doing evil
and (R)delight in the perverseness of evil,
15 men whose (S)paths are crooked,
(T)and who are (U)devious in their ways.
16 So (V)you will be delivered from the forbidden[a] woman,
from (W)the adulteress[b] with (X)her smooth words,
17 who forsakes (Y)the companion of her youth
and forgets (Z)the covenant of her God;
18 (AA)for her house sinks down to death,
and her paths to the departed;[c]
19 none who go to her come back,
nor do they regain the paths of life.
20 So you will walk in the way of the good
and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright (AB)will inhabit the land,
and those with integrity will remain in it,
22 but the wicked will be (AC)cut off from the land,
and the treacherous will be (AD)rooted out of it.
