智慧使人認識 神

我兒,如果你接受我的話,

把我的誡命珍藏在心裡,

留心聽智慧,

致力求聰明;

如果你為求哲理而呼喊,

為求聰明而揚聲;

如果你尋找它如同尋找銀子,

搜尋它好像搜尋寶藏;

你就明白怎樣敬畏耶和華,

並且獲得對 神的認識。

因為耶和華賜人智慧,

知識和聰明都出自他的口。

他為正直人珍藏大智慧,

給行為完全的人作盾牌;

為要看顧正直人的路徑,

護衛虔誠人的道路。

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。

Moral Benefits of Wisdom

My son,(A) if you accept my words
    and store up my commands within you,
turning your ear to wisdom
    and applying your heart to understanding(B)
indeed, if you call out for insight(C)
    and cry aloud for understanding,
and if you look for it as for silver
    and search for it as for hidden treasure,(D)
then you will understand the fear of the Lord
    and find the knowledge of God.(E)
For the Lord gives wisdom;(F)
    from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.(G)
He holds success in store for the upright,
    he is a shield(H) to those whose walk is blameless,(I)
for he guards the course of the just
    and protects the way of his faithful ones.(J)

Then you will understand(K) what is right and just
    and fair—every good path.
10 For wisdom will enter your heart,(L)
    and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11 Discretion will protect you,
    and understanding will guard you.(M)

12 Wisdom will save(N) you from the ways of wicked men,
    from men whose words are perverse,
13 who have left the straight paths
    to walk in dark ways,(O)
14 who delight in doing wrong
    and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,(P)
15 whose paths are crooked(Q)
    and who are devious in their ways.(R)

16 Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,(S)
    from the wayward woman with her seductive words,
17 who has left the partner of her youth
    and ignored the covenant she made before God.[a](T)
18 Surely her house leads down to death
    and her paths to the spirits of the dead.(U)
19 None who go to her return
    or attain the paths of life.(V)

20 Thus you will walk in the ways of the good
    and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright will live in the land,(W)
    and the blameless will remain in it;
22 but the wicked(X) will be cut off from the land,(Y)
    and the unfaithful will be torn from it.(Z)

  1. Proverbs 2:17 Or covenant of her God

My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;

So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;

Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;

If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;

Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.

For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.

He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.

Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;

11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:

12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;

13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;

15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:

16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;

17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.

18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.

19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.

20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.

21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.

22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.
