箴言 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
智慧的益處
2 孩子啊,
你若接受我的教誨,
珍愛我的誡命,
2 側耳聆聽智慧,
傾心渴慕悟性;
3 你若呼求洞見,
竭力追求悟性,
4 尋它如尋銀子,
找它如找寶藏,
5 你就會懂得敬畏耶和華,
認識上帝。
6 因為耶和華賜人智慧,
知識和悟性出自祂的口。
7 祂使正直人充滿智慧,
是行為純全者的盾牌。
8 祂看守正義之路,
護衛虔誠人的道。
9 這樣,你就明白何為仁義、
公平和正直,
懂得一切美善之道。
10 因為智慧必進入你心,
知識必令你的靈歡快。
11 明辨力必護佑你,
悟性必看顧你。
12 智慧必救你遠離惡道,
脫離言語荒謬的人。
13 他們捨棄正道,走上黑路,
14 以行惡為樂,喜愛惡人的邪僻;
15 他們的道路歪邪,行徑扭曲。
16 智慧要救你脫離淫婦,
脫離花言巧語的妓女。
17 她撇棄了年輕時的丈夫,
忘了在上帝面前立的約。
18 她的家通向死亡,
她的路直達陰間。
19 到她那裡的人都有去無回,
找不到生命之道。
20 所以你要行善人的路,
守義人的道。
21 因為在地上,
正直人必安居,
純全無過的人必長存,
22 惡人必遭滅絕,
奸徒必被剷除。
Proverbs 2
Wycliffe Bible
2 My son, if thou receivest my words, and hidest my behests with thee (and hidest my commands with thee);
2 (so) that thine ear hear wisdom, bow (down) thine heart to know prudence.
3 For if thou inwardly callest (to) wisdom, and bowest thine heart to(ward) prudence;
4 if thou seekest it as money, and diggest it out as treasures;
5 then thou shalt understand the dread of the Lord, and shalt find the knowing of God. (then thou shalt understand the fear of the Lord/then thou shalt understand reverence for the Lord, and shalt find the knowledge of God.)
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom; and prudence and knowing is of his mouth. (For the Lord giveth wisdom; and understanding and knowledge cometh from his mouth.)
7 He shall keep the health of rightful men, and he shall defend them that go simply. (He shall keep safe the salvation, or the deliverance, of the righteous, and he shall defend those who go with honesty, or with integrity.)
8 And he shall keep (safe) the paths of rightwiseness, and he shall keep (safe) the ways of holy men.
9 Then thou shalt understand rightfulness, and doom, and equity, and each good path. (Then thou shalt understand righteousness, and judgement, and fairness, and each good way.)
10 If wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowing pleaseth thy soul,
11 good counsel shall keep thee, and prudence shall keep thee; (good advice shall keep thee safe, and understanding shall keep thee safe;)
12 (so) that thou be delivered from an evil way, and from a man that speaketh wayward things (and from the person who speaketh wicked things).
13 Which forsake a rightful way (Yea, from those who abandon the right way), and go by dark ways;
14 which be glad, when they have done evil, and make full out joy in worst things; (who be glad, when they have done evil, and rejoice in the worst things;)
15 whose ways be wayward, and their goings be of evil fame. (whose ways be wicked, and whose deeds be shameful.)
16 That thou be delivered from an alien woman, and from a strange woman, that maketh soft her words; (And so that thou be rescued from a strange, or an unknown, woman, who maketh her words soft;)
17 and (who) forsaketh the duke, or (the) leader, of her time of marriage, and hath forgotten the covenant of her God.
18 For the house of her is bowed to death, and her paths to hell. (For her house is on the way to death, and her paths lead down to Sheol, or the land of the dead/and her paths lead down to hell.)
19 All that enter to her, shall not turn again, neither they shall catch the paths of life. (All who go to her, shall never return, nor shall they ever walk again on the paths of life.)
20 That thou go in a good way, and keep the paths of just men. (So see that thou go on a good way, and keep to the paths of the righteous.)
21 Forsooth they that be rightful, shall dwell in the land; and simple men shall perfectly dwell therein. (For they who be upright, shall live in the land; and those who be honest/and those with integrity shall live there.)
22 But unfaithful men shall be lost from the land; and they that do wickedly, shall be taken away from it. (But the unfaithful shall be destroyed from off the land; and those who do wickedly, shall be taken away from it.)
Proverbs 2
New International Version
Moral Benefits of Wisdom
2 My son,(A) if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,
2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding(B)—
3 indeed, if you call out for insight(C)
and cry aloud for understanding,
4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,(D)
5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.(E)
6 For the Lord gives wisdom;(F)
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.(G)
7 He holds success in store for the upright,
he is a shield(H) to those whose walk is blameless,(I)
8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.(J)
9 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)
