箴言 3
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
給年輕人的忠告
3 我兒啊,不要忘記我的教誨,
你的心要謹守我的命令,
2 因為它們[a]必加給你長久的日子,
生命的年數與平安。
3 不可使慈愛和誠信離開你,
要繫在你頸項上,刻在你心版上。
4 這樣,你必在 神和世人眼前
蒙恩惠,有美好的見識。
5 你要專心仰賴耶和華,
不可倚靠自己的聰明,
6 在你一切所行的路上都要認定他,
他必使你的道路平直。
7 不要自以為有智慧;
要敬畏耶和華,遠離惡事。
8 這便醫治你的肉體[b],
滋潤你的百骨。
9 你要以財物
和一切初熟的土產尊崇耶和華,
10 這樣,你的倉庫必充滿有餘,
你的酒池有新酒盈溢。
11 我兒啊,不可輕看耶和華的管教,
也不可厭煩他的責備,
12 因為耶和華所愛的,他必責備,
正如父親責備所喜愛的兒子。
13 得智慧,得聰明的,
這人有福了。
14 因為智慧的獲利勝過銀子,
所得的盈餘強如金子,
15 比寶石[c]更寶貴,
你一切所喜愛的,都不足與其比較。
16 她的右手有長壽,
左手有富貴。
17 她的道是安樂,
她的路全是平安。
18 她給持守她的人作生命樹,
謹守她的必定蒙福。
19 耶和華以智慧奠立地基,
以聰明鋪設諸天,
20 以知識使深淵裂開,
使天空滴下甘露。
21 我兒啊,要謹守健全的知識和智謀,
不可使它們偏離你的眼目。
22 這樣,它們必使你的生命有活力,
又作你頸項的美飾。
23 那時,你就坦然行路,
不致跌倒。
24 你躺下,必不懼怕;
你躺臥,睡得香甜。
25 忽然來的驚恐,你不要害怕;
惡人遭毀滅,也不要恐懼,
26 因為耶和華是你的倚靠,
他必保護你的腳不陷入羅網。
27 你的手若有行善的力量,
不可推辭,要施與那應得的人。
28 你若手頭方便,
不可對鄰舍說:
「去吧,明天再來,我必給你。」
29 你的鄰舍既在你附近安居,
不可設計害他。
30 人若未曾加害你,
不可無故與他相爭。
31 不可嫉妒殘暴的人,
不可選擇他的任何道路。
32 因為走偏方向的人是耶和華所憎惡的;
正直人為他所親密。
33 耶和華詛咒惡人的家;
義人的居所他卻賜福。
34 他譏誚那愛譏誚的人;
但賜恩給謙卑的人。
35 智慧人必承受尊榮;
愚昧人高升卻是羞辱。
Proverbs 3
Legacy Standard Bible
Trust, Fear, and Honor Yahweh
3 My son, (A)do not forget my [a]law,
But let your heart (B)guard my commandments;
2 For (C)length of days and years of life
And peace they will add to you.
3 Do not let (D)lovingkindness and truth forsake you;
(E)Bind them around your neck,
(F)Write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 So you will (G)find favor and (H)good insight
In the eyes of God and man.
5 (I)Trust in Yahweh with all your heart
And (J)do not lean on your own understanding.
6 In all your ways [b](K)acknowledge Him,
And He will (L)make your paths straight.
7 (M)Do not be wise in your own eyes;
(N)Fear Yahweh and turn away from evil.
8 It will be (O)healing to your [c]body
And (P)refreshment to your bones.
9 (Q)Honor Yahweh from your wealth
And from the (R)first of all your produce;
10 So your (S)barns will be filled with plenty
And your (T)vats will burst with new wine.
11 (U)My son, do not reject the [d]discipline of Yahweh
Or loathe His reproof,
12 For (V)whom Yahweh loves He reproves,
Even (W)as a father reproves the son in whom he delights.
13 (X)How blessed is the man who finds wisdom
And the man who obtains discernment.
14 For her (Y)profit is better than the profit of silver
And her produce better than fine gold.
15 She is (Z)more precious than [e]pearls;
And nothing you desire compares with her.
16 (AA)Length of days is in her right hand;
In her left hand are (AB)riches and glory.
17 Her (AC)ways are pleasant ways
And all her pathways are (AD)peace.
18 She is a (AE)tree of life to those who seize her,
And all those who hold her fast are blessed.
19 Yahweh (AF)by wisdom founded the earth,
By discernment He (AG)established the heavens.
20 By His knowledge the (AH)deeps were split up
And the (AI)skies drip with dew.
21 My son, (AJ)let them not deviate from your eyes;
Guard sound wisdom and discretion,
22 So they will be (AK)life for your soul
And (AL)grace for your neck.
23 Then you will (AM)walk in your way securely
And your foot will not (AN)stumble.
24 When you (AO)lie down, you will not be in dread;
You will lie down, and your sleep will be pleasant.
25 (AP)Do not be afraid of sudden dread
Nor of the (AQ)storm of the wicked when it comes;
26 For Yahweh will be [f]your confidence
And will (AR)keep your foot from being caught.
27 (AS)Do not withhold good from [g]those to whom it is due,
When it is in your hand to do it.
28 (AT)Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come back,
And tomorrow I will give it,”
When it is there with you.
29 (AU)Do not devise [h]harm against your neighbor,
While he lives securely beside you.
30 (AV)Do not contend with a man without cause,
If he has dealt you no [i]harm.
31 (AW)Do not envy a man of violence
And do not choose any of his ways.
32 For the (AX)devious one is an abomination to Yahweh;
But His (AY)secret council is with the upright.
33 The (AZ)curse of Yahweh is on the house of the wicked one,
But He (BA)blesses the abode of the righteous.
34 Though (BB)He scoffs at the scoffers,
Yet (BC)He gives grace to the humble.
35 (BD)The wise will inherit glory,
But [j]fools raise up disgrace.
