箴言 3
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
要一心仰賴耶和華
3 我兒,不可忘記我的訓誨,
你的心要謹守我的誡命;
2 因為它們必把長久的日子、生命的歲數和平安,加給你。
3 不可讓慈愛誠實離開你,
要繫在你的頸項上,
刻在你的心版上。
4 這樣,你在 神和世人眼前,
必蒙恩寵,得著美名(“名”原文作“明慧”)。
5 你要一心仰賴耶和華,
不可倚靠自己的聰明;
6 在你一切所行的路上,都要承認他,
他必使你的路徑平坦正直。
7 不可自以為有智慧,
要敬畏耶和華,遠離惡事。
8 這必使你的身體健康,
使你的骨頭滋潤。
9 你要把你的財物,
和一切初熟的農作物,敬奉耶和華。
10 這樣,你的倉庫必充滿有餘,
你的榨酒池也必盈溢新酒。
11 我兒,不可輕看耶和華的管教,
也不可厭惡他的責備;
12 因為耶和華所愛的,他必責備,
正如父親責備他喜愛的兒子一樣。
得智慧遠勝得金銀
13 得著智慧,
獲致聰明的人,是有福的。
14 因為智慧的利潤勝過銀子的利潤,
智慧的收益勝過黃金的收益。
15 智慧比紅寶石更寶貴;
你一切所喜愛的,都不足與智慧比較。
16 智慧的右手有長壽,
左手有財富和尊榮。
17 智慧的道路盡是歡悅,
智慧的路徑全是平安。
18 對緊握智慧的人來說,智慧是生命樹,
凡是緊抓智慧的,都是有福的。
19 耶和華以智慧奠定大地,
以聰明堅立高天。
20 因他的知識,深淵就裂開,
天空也滴下甘露。
謹守智慧必得尊榮
21 我兒,要謹守大智慧和明辨的態度,
不可讓它們離開你的眼目。
22 這樣,它們就必作你的生命,
作你頸上的華飾。
23 你就可以安然走路,
你的腳必不致絆倒。
24 你躺下的時候,必不會驚恐;
你躺臥的時候,必睡得香甜。
25 忽然而來的驚恐,你不要懼怕;
惡人的毀滅臨到,你也不要恐懼;
26 因為耶和華是你的倚靠,
他必護衛你的腳不陷入網羅。
27 如果你的手有行善的力量,就不可推辭,
要向那些需要幫助的人行善。
28 你那裡如果有現成的,
就不可對鄰舍說:
“你先回去,明天再來吧,到時,我必給你!”
29 你的鄰舍在你旁邊安居,
你不可設計害他。
30 如果人沒有加害於你,
你不可無故與他相爭。
31 不要嫉妒強暴的人,
也不可選擇他所行的一切道路;
32 因為偏離正道的人,是耶和華所厭惡的,
正直人卻是他所親愛的。
33 耶和華咒詛惡人的家,
卻賜福給義人的居所。
34 他譏笑那些好譏笑的人,
卻賜恩給謙卑的人。
35 智慧人必承受尊榮,
愚昧人必蒙受羞辱(“必蒙受羞辱”原文作“高升成為羞辱”)。
箴言 3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
信靠耶和华
3 孩子啊,不要忘记我的训言,
要把我的诫命存在心里,
2 因为这必使你延年益寿,
幸福平安。
3 不要让慈爱和信实离开你,
要把他们系在你的颈项上,
刻在你的心坎上。
4 这样,你必蒙上帝和世人的喜悦,
享有美誉。
5 你要全心信靠耶和华,
不可倚靠自己的悟性。
6 凡事都要寻求祂,
祂必指引你走正路。
7 不要自以为有智慧,
要敬畏耶和华,远离恶事。
8 这样可医治你的身体,
滋润你的筋骨。
9 你要用自己的财富和一切初熟的物产来尊崇耶和华,
10 祂必使你五谷满仓,
榨酒池溢出新酿。
11 孩子啊,不可轻视耶和华的管教,
也不可厌烦祂的责备。
12 因为耶和华责备祂所爱的人,
就像父亲责备他所疼爱的孩子。
13 找到智慧、得到悟性的人有福了,
14 因为智慧比银子更有价值,
比金子更有益处,
15 比珠宝更珍贵;
你所喜爱的一切都难以相比。
16 智慧的右手有长寿,
左手有富贵和尊荣。
17 她的路上有福乐,
她的道上有平安。
18 对持守智慧的人来说,
智慧是生命树,
紧握智慧的人必蒙祝福。
19 耶和华以智慧奠立大地,
以悟性铺设诸天;
20 祂的知识使深渊裂开,
使天上降下甘霖。
21 孩子啊,你要守护智慧和明辨力,
别让她们离开你的视线。
22 她们必给你带来生命,
作你颈项上华美的装饰。
23 如此,你必步履稳健,不致失足;
24 你必安然躺卧,睡得香甜。
25 不要怕突来的灾祸,
不要怕恶人遭毁灭,
26 因为耶和华是你的靠山,
祂使你的脚不陷入网罗。
27 倘若有力量行善,
就当帮助有需要的人,不要推托。
28 倘若可以帮忙,
就不可对有求于你的邻人说:
“回去吧,明天再来,我必给你!”
29 邻舍在你附近安分居住,
不可谋害他。
30 别人若没有害你,
不要无故与他相争。
31 不要羡慕残暴之徒,
也不可步其后尘,
32 因为耶和华憎恶邪僻之徒,
喜爱正直的人。
33 耶和华咒诅恶人的家,
赐福义人的家。
34 耶和华讥笑好讥诮的人,
恩待谦卑的人。
35 智者得尊荣,
愚人受羞辱。
Proverbs 3
Modern English Version
The Rewards of Wisdom
3 My son, do not forget my teaching,
but let your heart keep my commandments;
2 for length of days and long life
and peace will they add to you.
3 Do not let mercy and truth forsake you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart,
4 so you will find favor and good understanding
in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will direct your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your body,
and strength to your bones.
9 Honor the Lord with your substance,
and with the first fruits of all your increase;
10 so your barns will be filled with plenty,
and your presses will burst out with new wine.
11 My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord,
nor be weary of His correction;
12 for whom the Lord loves He corrects,
even as a father the son in whom he delights.
13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
and the man who gets understanding;
14 for her benefit is more profitable than silver,
and her gain than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies,
and all the things you may desire are not to be compared with her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand,
and in her left hand riches and honor.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
and happy is everyone who retains her.
19 The Lord by wisdom has founded the earth;
by understanding He has established the heavens;
20 by His knowledge the depths are broken up,
and the clouds drop down the dew.
21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes—
keep sound wisdom and discretion;
22 so they will be life to your soul
and grace to your neck.
23 Then you will walk safely in your way,
and your foot will not stumble.
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror,
nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;
26 for the Lord will be your confidence,
and will keep your foot from being caught.
27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
28 Do not say to your neighbor,
“Go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give it,”
when you have it with you.
29 Do not devise evil against your neighbor,
seeing he dwells securely by you.
30 Do not strive with a man without cause,
if he has done you no harm.
31 Do not envy the oppressor,
and choose none of his ways;
32 for the perverse is an abomination to the Lord,
but His secret counsel is with the righteous.
33 The curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked,
but He blesses the habitation of the just.
34 Surely He scorns the scornful,
but He gives favor to the humble.
35 The wise will inherit glory,
but shame will be the legacy of fools.
