箴言 1
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
箴言的功用
1 大卫的儿子以色列王所罗门的箴言：
2 要使人晓得智慧和教训，
了解充满哲理的言语；
3 使人领受明慧的教训，
就是公义、公正和正直；
4 使愚蒙人变成精明，
使少年人获得知识和明辨的能力；
5 使智慧人听了，可以增长学问，
使聪明人听了，可以获得智谋；
6 使人明白箴言和譬喻，
懂得智慧人的言词和他们的隐语。
不受恶人的引诱
7 敬畏耶和华是知识的开端，
但愚妄人藐视智慧和教训。
8 我儿，要听从你父亲的教训，
不可离弃你母亲的训诲。
9 因为这些要作你头上的华冠，
作你颈上的金炼。
10 我儿，如果坏人引诱你，
你不可随从他们。
11 如果他们说：“你跟我们来吧！
我们要埋伏流人的血，
我们要无故地潜伏伤害无辜的人；
12 我们要好象阴间一般，把他们活生生吞下，
他们整个被我们吞下，如同下坑的人一样；
13 这样，我们必得着各样贵重的财物，
把掠物装满我们的房子。
14 加入我们的行列吧！
我们大家共用一个钱袋。”
15 我儿，不可和他们走在一起，
禁止你的脚走他们的路；
16 因为他们的脚奔向邪恶，
他们急于流人的血。
17 在飞鸟眼前张设网罗，
是徒劳无功的。
18 他们埋伏，是自流己血；
他们潜伏，是自害己命。
19 凡是贪爱不义之财的，所走的路都是这样；
那不义之财夺去了贪财者的性命。
当听智慧的呼唤
20 智慧在街上呼喊，
在广场上扬声；
21 在闹市中心呼叫，
在城门口发出言语，说：
22 “你们愚蒙人喜爱愚蒙，
好讥笑的人喜欢讥笑，
愚昧人恨恶知识，要到几时呢？
23 你们要因我的责备回转，
我就把我的心意（“心意”或译：“灵”）向你们倾吐，
把我的话指示你们。
24 我呼唤，你们不肯听从；
我伸手，没有人理会。
25 你们既轻忽我的一切劝告，
不肯接受我的责备；
26 所以你们遭难的时候，我就发笑；
惊恐临到你们的日子，我就嗤笑。
27 惊恐临到你们好象风暴，
灾难如同飓风来临，
患难困苦临到你们身上。
28 那时，他们必呼求我，我却不回答；
他们切切寻找我，却寻不见；
29 因为他们恨恶知识，
不选择敬畏耶和华；
30 不接受我的劝告，
轻视我的一切责备；
31 所以，他们必自食其果，
必饱尝自己所设计谋的伤害。
32 愚蒙人的背道必杀害他们自己，
愚昧人的安逸必毁灭他们自己；
33 唯有听从我的，必安然居住，
得享安宁，免受灾祸的惊恐。”

How Proverbs Can Be Used
1 (A) These are the proverbs
of King Solomon of Israel,
the son of David.
2 Proverbs will teach you
wisdom and self-control
and how to understand
sayings with deep meanings.
3 You will learn what is right
and honest and fair.
4 From these, an ordinary person
can learn to be smart,
and young people can gain
knowledge and good sense.
5 If you are already wise,
you will become even wiser.
And if you are smart,
you will learn to understand
6 proverbs and sayings,
as well as words of wisdom,
and all kinds of riddles.
7 (B) Respect and obey the Lord!
This is the beginning
of knowledge.[a]
Only a fool rejects wisdom
and good advice.
Warnings against Bad Friends
8 My child, obey the teachings
of your parents,
9 and wear their teachings
as you would a pretty hat
or a lovely necklace.
10 Don't be tempted by sinners
or listen 11 when they say,
“Come on! Let's gang up
and kill somebody,
just for the fun of it!
12 They're well and healthy now,
but we'll finish them off
once and for all.
13 We'll take their valuables
and fill our homes
with stolen goods.
14 If you join our gang,
you'll get your share.”
15 Don't follow anyone like that
or do what they do.
16 They are in a big hurry
to commit some crime,
perhaps even murder.
17 They are like a bird
that sees the bait,
but ignores the trap.[b]
18 They gang up to murder someone,
but they are the victims.
19 The wealth you get from crime
robs you of your life.
Wisdom Speaks
20 (C) Wisdom[c] shouts in the streets
wherever crowds gather.
21 She shouts in the marketplaces
and near the city gates
as she says to the people,
22 “How much longer
will you enjoy
being stupid fools?
Won't you ever stop sneering
and laughing at knowledge?
23 Listen as I correct you
and tell you what I think.
24 You completely ignored me
and refused to listen;
25 you rejected my advice
and paid no attention
when I warned you.
26 “So when you are struck
by some terrible disaster,
27 or when trouble and distress
surround you like a whirlwind,
I will laugh and make fun.
28 You will ask for my help,
but I won't listen;
you will search,
but you won't find me.
29 No, you would not learn,
and you refused
to respect the Lord.
30 You rejected my advice
and paid no attention
when I warned you.
31 “Now you will eat the fruit
of what you have done,
until you are stuffed full
with your own schemes.
32 Sin and self-satisfaction
bring destruction and death
to stupid fools.
33 But if you listen to me,
you will be safe and secure
without fear of disaster.”

New International Version
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)
