箴言 4
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
持定训诲、不偏左右
4 孩子们，要听父亲的教训，
留心学习哲理；
2 因为我授予你们的，是美好的学问，
我的训诲，你们不可离弃。
3 我在我父亲面前还是小孩子，
在我母亲面前是独一的娇儿的时候，
4 父亲教导我，对我说：
“你的心要持守我的话，
你要遵守我的诫命，就可以存活；
5 要求取智慧和哲理，
不可忘记，也不可偏离我口中的话。
6 不可离弃智慧，智慧就必护卫你；
喜爱智慧，智慧就必看顾你。
7 智慧的开端（“智慧的开端”或译：“智慧是首要的”）是求取智慧，
要用你所得的一切换取哲理。
8 你要高举智慧，智慧就必使你高升；
你要怀抱智慧，智慧就必使你得尊荣。
9 智慧必把华冠加在你头上，
把荣冕赐给你。”
10 我儿，你要听，并要接受我所说的，
这样，你就必延年益寿。
11 我指教你走智慧的道，
引导你行正直的路。
12 你行走的时候，脚步必不会受阻碍；
你奔跑的时候，也不会跌倒。
13 你要坚守教训，不可放松；
要谨守教训，因为那是你的生命。
14 不可走进恶人的路径，
不可踏上坏人的道路。
15 要躲避，不可从那里经过，
要转身离去。
16 因为他们不行恶，就不能入睡；
不使人跌倒，就要失眠。
17 他们吃的，是奸恶的饭；
他们喝的，是强暴的酒。
18 义人的路径却像黎明的曙光，
越来越明亮，直到日午。
19 恶人的道路幽暗，
他们不知道自己因甚么跌倒。
20 我儿，要留心听我的话，
侧耳听我所说的。
21 不可让它们离开你的眼目，
要谨记在你的心中。
22 因为得着它们就是得着生命，
整个人也得着医治。
23 你要谨守你的心，胜过谨守一切，
因为生命的泉源由此而出。
24 你要除掉欺诈的口，
远离乖谬的嘴唇。
25 你双眼要向前正视，
你的眼睛要向前直望。
26 你要谨慎你脚下的路径，
你一切所行的就必稳妥。
27 不可偏左偏右，
要使你的脚远离恶事。
Proverbs 4
New Living Translation
A Father’s Wise Advice
4 My children,[a] listen when your father corrects you.
Pay attention and learn good judgment,
2 for I am giving you good guidance.
Don’t turn away from my instructions.
3 For I, too, was once my father’s son,
tenderly loved as my mother’s only child.
4 My father taught me,
“Take my words to heart.
Follow my commands, and you will live.
5 Get wisdom; develop good judgment.
Don’t forget my words or turn away from them.
6 Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you.
Love her, and she will guard you.
7 Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do!
And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.
8 If you prize wisdom, she will make you great.
Embrace her, and she will honor you.
9 She will place a lovely wreath on your head;
she will present you with a beautiful crown.”
10 My child,[b] listen to me and do as I say,
and you will have a long, good life.
11 I will teach you wisdom’s ways
and lead you in straight paths.
12 When you walk, you won’t be held back;
when you run, you won’t stumble.
13 Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go.
Guard them, for they are the key to life.
14 Don’t do as the wicked do,
and don’t follow the path of evildoers.
15 Don’t even think about it; don’t go that way.
Turn away and keep moving.
16 For evil people can’t sleep until they’ve done their evil deed for the day.
They can’t rest until they’ve caused someone to stumble.
17 They eat the food of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence!
18 The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
which shines ever brighter until the full light of day.
19 But the way of the wicked is like total darkness.
They have no idea what they are stumbling over.
20 My child, pay attention to what I say.
Listen carefully to my words.
21 Don’t lose sight of them.
Let them penetrate deep into your heart,
22 for they bring life to those who find them,
and healing to their whole body.
23 Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life.
24 Avoid all perverse talk;
stay away from corrupt speech.
25 Look straight ahead,
and fix your eyes on what lies before you.
26 Mark out a straight path for your feet;
stay on the safe path.
27 Don’t get sidetracked;
keep your feet from following evil.
Proverbs 4
New International Reader's Version
Get Wisdom at Any Cost
4 My sons, listen to a father’s teaching.
Pay attention and gain understanding.
2 I give you good advice.
So don’t turn away from what I teach you.
3 I, too, was once a young boy in my father’s house.
And my mother loved me deeply.
4 Then my father taught me.
He said to me, “Take hold of my words with all your heart.
Keep my commands, and you will live.
5 Get wisdom, and get understanding.
Don’t forget my words or turn away from them.
6 Stay close to wisdom, and she will keep you safe.
Love her, and she will watch over you.
7 To start being wise you must first get wisdom.
No matter what it costs, get understanding.
8 Value wisdom highly, and she will lift you up.
Hold her close, and she will honor you.
9 She will set a beautiful crown on your head.
She will give you a glorious crown.”
10 My son, listen. Accept what I say.
Then you will live for many years.
11 I instruct you in the way of wisdom.
I lead you along straight paths.
12 When you walk, nothing will slow you down.
When you run, you won’t trip and fall.
13 Hold on to my teaching and don’t let it go.
Guard it well, because it is your life.
14 Don’t take the path of evil people.
Don’t live the way sinners do.
15 Stay away from their path and don’t travel on it.
Turn away from it and go on your way.
16 Sinners can’t rest until they do what is evil.
They can’t sleep until they make someone sin.
17 They do evil just as easily as they eat food.
They hurt others as easily as they drink wine.
18 The path of those who do right is like the sun in the morning.
It shines brighter and brighter until the full light of day.
19 But the way of those who do what is wrong is like deep darkness.
They don’t know what makes them trip and fall.
20 My son, pay attention to what I say.
Listen closely to my words.
21 Don’t let them out of your sight.
Keep them in your heart.
22 They are life to those who find them.
They are health to a person’s whole body.
23 Above everything else, guard your heart.
Everything you do comes from it.
24 Don’t speak with twisted words.
Keep evil talk away from your lips.
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead.
Keep looking right in front of you.
26 Think carefully about the paths that your feet walk on.
Always choose the right ways.
27 Don’t turn to the right or left.
Keep your feet from the path of evil.
