箴言 4
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
持定訓誨、不偏左右
4 孩子們，要聽父親的教訓，
留心學習哲理；
2 因為我授予你們的，是美好的學問，
我的訓誨，你們不可離棄。
3 我在我父親面前還是小孩子，
在我母親面前是獨一的嬌兒的時候，
4 父親教導我，對我說：
“你的心要持守我的話，
你要遵守我的誡命，就可以存活；
5 要求取智慧和哲理，
不可忘記，也不可偏離我口中的話。
6 不可離棄智慧，智慧就必護衛你；
喜愛智慧，智慧就必看顧你。
7 智慧的開端（“智慧的開端”或譯：“智慧是首要的”）是求取智慧，
要用你所得的一切換取哲理。
8 你要高舉智慧，智慧就必使你高升；
你要懷抱智慧，智慧就必使你得尊榮。
9 智慧必把華冠加在你頭上，
把榮冕賜給你。”
10 我兒，你要聽，並要接受我所說的，
這樣，你就必延年益壽。
11 我指教你走智慧的道，
引導你行正直的路。
12 你行走的時候，腳步必不會受阻礙；
你奔跑的時候，也不會跌倒。
13 你要堅守教訓，不可放鬆；
要謹守教訓，因為那是你的生命。
14 不可走進惡人的路徑，
不可踏上壞人的道路。
15 要躲避，不可從那裡經過，
要轉身離去。
16 因為他們不行惡，就不能入睡；
不使人跌倒，就要失眠。
17 他們吃的，是奸惡的飯；
他們喝的，是強暴的酒。
18 義人的路徑卻像黎明的曙光，
越來越明亮，直到日午。
19 惡人的道路幽暗，
他們不知道自己因甚麼跌倒。
20 我兒，要留心聽我的話，
側耳聽我所說的。
21 不可讓它們離開你的眼目，
要謹記在你的心中。
22 因為得著它們就是得著生命，
整個人也得著醫治。
23 你要謹守你的心，勝過謹守一切，
因為生命的泉源由此而出。
24 你要除掉欺詐的口，
遠離乖謬的嘴唇。
25 你雙眼要向前正視，
你的眼睛要向前直望。
26 你要謹慎你腳下的路徑，
你一切所行的就必穩妥。
27 不可偏左偏右，
要使你的腳遠離惡事。

父親的教誨
4 孩子們啊，
你們要聽從父親的教誨，
留心學習，以便領悟，
2 因為我給你們的訓誨是美好的，
不可背棄我的教導。
3 我年幼時在父親身邊，
是母親唯一的寵兒。
4 父親教導我說：
「要牢記我的話，
遵守我的誡命，就必存活。
5 你要尋求智慧和悟性，
不要忘記或違背我的吩咐。
6 不可離棄智慧，智慧必護佑你；
你要熱愛智慧，智慧必看顧你。
7 智慧至上，要尋求智慧，
要不惜一切，求得悟性。
8 高舉智慧，她必使你受尊崇；
擁抱智慧，她必使你得尊榮。
9 她必為你戴上華冠，
加上榮冕。」
10 孩子啊，你要聽從我的教導，
就必延年益壽。
11 我已經指示你走智慧之道，
引導你行正確的路。
12 你行走，必不受妨礙；
你奔跑，絕不會跌倒。
13 你要持守教誨，不要鬆懈；
要守護好，因為那是你的生命。
14 不要涉足惡人的道，
不要行走壞人的路；
15 要避開，不可踏足，
要繞道而行。
16 因為他們不作惡就無法入睡，
不絆倒人就無法安眠；
17 他們吃的是邪惡餅，
喝的是殘暴酒。
18 義人的道路好像黎明的曙光，
越照越亮，直到大放光明。
19 惡人的道路一片幽暗，
他們不知被何物絆倒。
20 孩子啊，你要聆聽我的吩咐，
側耳聽我的訓言；
21 不要讓它們離開你的視線，
要牢記在心。
22 因為得到它們就得到生命，
全身也必康健。
23 要一絲不苟地守護你的心，
因為生命之泉從心中湧出。
24 不講欺詐之言，
不說荒謬的話。
25 眼睛要正視前方，
雙目要向前直看。
26 要鋪平腳下的路，
使所行之道穩妥。
27 不可偏右偏左，
要遠離惡事。

Get Wisdom at Any Cost
4 Listen, my sons,(A) to a father’s instruction;(B)
pay attention and gain understanding.(C)
2 I give you sound learning,
so do not forsake my teaching.
3 For I too was a son to my father,
still tender, and cherished by my mother.
4 Then he taught me, and he said to me,
“Take hold(D) of my words with all your heart;
keep my commands, and you will live.(E)
5 Get wisdom,(F) get understanding;
do not forget my words or turn away from them.
6 Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you;(G)
love her, and she will watch over you.(H)
7 The beginning of wisdom is this: Get[a] wisdom.
Though it cost all(I) you have,[b] get understanding.(J)
8 Cherish her, and she will exalt you;
embrace her, and she will honor you.(K)
9 She will give you a garland to grace your head
and present you with a glorious crown.(L)”
10 Listen, my son,(M) accept what I say,
and the years of your life will be many.(N)
11 I instruct(O) you in the way of wisdom
and lead you along straight paths.(P)
12 When you walk, your steps will not be hampered;
when you run, you will not stumble.(Q)
13 Hold on to instruction, do not let it go;
guard it well, for it is your life.(R)
14 Do not set foot on the path of the wicked
or walk in the way of evildoers.(S)
15 Avoid it, do not travel on it;
turn from it and go on your way.
16 For they cannot rest until they do evil;(T)
they are robbed of sleep till they make someone stumble.
17 They eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence.(U)
18 The path of the righteous(V) is like the morning sun,(W)
shining ever brighter till the full light of day.(X)
19 But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness;(Y)
they do not know what makes them stumble.(Z)
20 My son,(AA) pay attention to what I say;
turn your ear to my words.(AB)
21 Do not let them out of your sight,(AC)
keep them within your heart;
22 for they are life to those who find them
and health to one’s whole body.(AD)
23 Above all else, guard(AE) your heart,
for everything you do flows from it.(AF)
24 Keep your mouth free of perversity;
keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
25 Let your eyes(AG) look straight ahead;
fix your gaze directly before you.
26 Give careful thought to the[c] paths for your feet(AH)
and be steadfast in all your ways.
27 Do not turn to the right or the left;(AI)
keep your foot from evil.

Security in Wisdom
4 Hear, (A)my children, the instruction of a father,
And give attention to know understanding;
2 For I give you good doctrine:
Do not forsake my law.
3 When I was my father’s son,
(B)Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother,
4 (C)He also taught me, and said to me:
“Let your heart retain my words;
(D)Keep my commands, and live.
5 (E)Get wisdom! Get understanding!
Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth.
6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you;
(F)Love her, and she will keep you.
7 (G)Wisdom is the principal thing;
Therefore get wisdom.
And in all your getting, get understanding.
8 (H)Exalt her, and she will promote you;
She will bring you honor, when you embrace her.
9 She will place on your head (I)an ornament of grace;
A crown of glory she will deliver to you.”
10 Hear, my son, and receive my sayings,
(J)And the years of your life will be many.
11 I have (K)taught you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in right paths.
12 When you walk, (L)your steps will not be hindered,
(M)And when you run, you will not stumble.
13 Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go;
Keep her, for she is your life.
14 (N)Do not enter the path of the wicked,
And do not walk in the way of evil.
15 Avoid it, do not travel on it;
Turn away from it and pass on.
16 (O)For they do not sleep unless they have done evil;
And their sleep is [a]taken away unless they make someone fall.
17 For they eat the bread of wickedness,
And drink the wine of violence.
18 (P)But the path of the just (Q)is like the shining [b]sun,
That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.
19 (R)The way of the wicked is like darkness;
They do not know what makes them stumble.
20 My son, give attention to my words;
Incline your ear to my sayings.
21 Do not let them depart from your eyes;
Keep them in the midst of your heart;
22 For they are life to those who find them,
And health to all their flesh.
23 Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of (S)life.
24 Put away from you a [c]deceitful mouth,
And put perverse lips far from you.
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead,
And your eyelids look right before you.
26 Ponder the path of your (T)feet,
And let all your ways be established.
27 Do not turn to the right or the left;
Remove your foot from evil.
