箴言 29
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
29 屢教不改、頑固不化者,
必突然滅亡,無可挽救。
2 義人增多,萬眾歡騰;
惡人得勢,萬民歎息。
3 愛慕智慧的使父親歡欣,
結交妓女的必耗盡錢財。
4 君王秉公行義,國家安定;
他若收受賄賂,國必傾倒。
5 奉承鄰舍,等於設網羅絆他。
6 惡人被自己的罪纏住,
義人卻常常歡喜歌唱。
7 義人關心窮人的冤屈,
惡人對此漠不關心。
8 狂徒煽動全城,
智者平息眾怒。
9 智者跟愚人對簿公堂,
愚人會怒罵嬉笑不止。
10 嗜殺之徒憎惡純全無過的人,
但正直的人保護他們[a]。
11 愚人盡發其怒,
智者忍氣含怒。
12 君王若聽讒言,
臣僕必成奸徒。
13 貧窮人和欺壓者有共同點:
他們的眼睛都是耶和華所賜。
14 君王若秉公審判窮人,
他的王位必永遠堅立。
15 管教之杖使孩子得智慧,
放縱的子女讓母親蒙羞。
16 惡人當道,罪惡氾濫;
義人必得見他們敗亡。
17 好好管教兒子,
他會帶給你平安和喜樂。
18 百姓無神諭便任意妄為,
但遵守律法的人必蒙福。
19 管教僕人不能單靠言語,
因為他雖明白卻不服從。
20 言語急躁的人,
還不如愚人有希望。
21 主人若從小就嬌慣僕人,
他終必成為主人的麻煩。
22 憤怒的人挑起紛爭,
暴躁的人多有過犯。
23 驕傲的人必遭貶抑,
謙卑的人必得尊榮。
24 與盜賊為伍是憎惡自己,
他即使發誓也不敢作證。
25 懼怕人的必自陷網羅,
信靠耶和華的必安穩。
26 許多人討君王的歡心,
但正義伸張靠耶和華。
27 為非作歹,義人厭惡;
行為正直,惡人憎恨。

Mishle 29
Orthodox Jewish Bible
29 He, that being often reproved, stiffeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without marpeh (remedy).
2 When the tzaddikim are increased, the people rejoice, but when the rasha beareth rule, the people groan.
3 He who loveth chochmah rejoiceth aviv, but he that keepeth company with zonot squanders his hon (substance, wealth).
4 Melech by mishpat establisheth eretz, but an ish terumot (a man of bribes) bringeth it down.
5 A gever that flattereth his neighbor spreadeth a reshet (net) for his feet.
6 By peysha (transgression) an ish rah is snared, but the tzaddik doth sing and have simchah.
7 The tzaddik considereth the cause of the dalim, but the rasha (wicked) doeth not understand such da’as (knowledge).
8 Scornful men enflame a city, but chachamim turn away af (wrath).
9 If an ish chacham has to contend with a fool, he [the fool] rageth or laugheth, and hath no rest.
10 The anshei damim hate integrity, but the yesharim seek his nefesh (soul, i.e., his soul’s well-being).
11 A kesil (fool) uttereth all his wrath, but a chacham keepeth it back quietly.
12 If a moshel pays heed to davar sheker, all his mesharetim (officials, ministers) are resha’im.
13 The rahsh (pauper) and the oppressor have this in common: Hashem enlighteneth both their eynayim.
14 If Melech shofet be’emes (judges in truth) the dalim, his kisse shall be established forever.
15 The shevet (rod) and tokhakhat (reproof) give chochmah, but a na’ar (child) left to himself bringeth immo to shame.
16 When the resha’im are multiplied, peysha (transgression) increaseth, but the tzaddikim shall see their downfall.
17 Correct binecha, and he shall give thee rest; indeed, he shall give delight unto thy nefesh.
18 Where there is no chazon (prophetic vision), the people cast off restaint [i.e., perish ungovernable], but he that is shomer over the torah, happy is he.
19 An eved will not be corrected by devarim, for though he understand he will not answer.
20 Seest thou an ish that is hasty in his devarim? There is more tikvah for a kesil (fool) than for him.
21 He that pampers his eved from youth up shall have him as his ben at the acharit (end).
22 An ish af (angry man) stirreth up strife, and a ba’al chemah (ill-tempered man) aboundeth in peysha (transgression).
23 Ga’avat adam (pride of man) shall bring him low, but the humble in ruach shall attain kavod.
24 He who is partner with a ganav hateth his own nefesh; he heareth the curse of the victim but discloses nothing.
25 The fear of adam bringeth a mokesh (snare), but he who putteth his trust in Hashem shall be secure.
26 Many seek the moshel’s favor, but mishpat ish cometh from Hashem.
27 An unjust man is a to’evah to the tzaddikim, and he that is yeshar derech (upright in the way) is to’evah to the rasha.
