箴言 6
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
日常警言
6 孩子啊，你若為鄰人作保，
為外人擊掌立約；
2 你若被自己口中的話套住，
被自己的諾言纏住，
3 孩子啊，你已落入鄰人的手中，
你當如此自救：
要謙卑地向他求情。
4 勿讓你的眼睛睡覺，
莫叫你的眼皮打盹。
5 要救自己脫離困境，
像羚羊掙脫獵人的手，
飛鳥逃脫捕鳥人的手。
6 懶惰的人啊，去看看螞蟻，
觀察牠的生活，就會有智慧。
7 螞蟻沒有元帥，
沒有官長，
也沒有君王，
8 卻在夏季儲備糧食，
在收割時積聚食物。
9 懶惰的人啊，你要躺到何時？
要睡到何時才起床？
10 再睡一會兒，再打個盹兒，
抱著手躺一會兒，
11 貧窮要像盜賊一樣攻擊你，
缺乏要像武士一樣撲向你。
12 無賴與惡人滿口詭詐，
13 擠眉弄眼，手腳示意，
14 心術不正，設下詭計，惹事生非。
15 因此，災難必突然臨到，
他們頃刻之間遭到毀滅，
無可挽救。
16 耶和華所憎惡的事有六樣，
連祂厭惡的事共有七樣：
17 高傲的眼睛，
撒謊的舌頭，
殺害無辜的手，
18 圖謀詭計的心，
奔跑作惡的腳，
19 撒謊的假證人和在弟兄中挑起爭端的人。
20 孩子啊，要遵守你父親的誡命，
不可背棄你母親的訓言。
21 你要常常將這些刻在心坎上，
繫在頸項上。
22 你行走，它們必引領你；
你躺臥，它們必護衛你；
你醒來，它們必與你交談。
23 因為誡命是燈，訓言是光，
管教責備是生命之道，
24 能使你遠離邪惡的女人，
避開油嘴滑舌的妓女。
25 你的心不要貪戀她的美色，
也不要被她的媚眼所迷惑，
26 因為娼妓會使人傾家蕩產[a]，
淫婦會獵殺人寶貴的生命。
27 人若將火藏在懷中，
哪能不燒著衣服呢？
28 人若行走在火炭上，
哪能不燙傷雙腳呢？
29 與別人妻子通姦也是這樣，
凡靠近她的必難逃罪責。
30 賊因充饑而偷，
沒有人藐視他；
31 但若被抓到，他要償還七倍，
就是傾家蕩產也要償還。
32 和有夫之婦通姦的，
實在愚不可及，
他是自尋死路。
33 他必挨打，受辱，
他的恥辱永難抹去。
34 那丈夫妒火燃燒，
報仇時絕不留情。
35 賠他再多財物，他也不會接受；
送他再多禮物，他都不肯甘休。

Financial Entanglements
6 My son, if you have put up security for your neighbour[a]
or entered into an agreement with[b] a stranger,(A)
2 you have been snared by the words of your mouth –
trapped by the words from your mouth.
3 Do this, then, my son, and free yourself,
for you have put yourself in your neighbour’s power:
Go, humble yourself, and plead with your neighbour.
4 Don’t give sleep to your eyes
or slumber to your eyelids.(B)
5 Escape like a gazelle from a hunter,[c]
like a bird from a hunter’s trap.[d](C)
Laziness
6 Go to the ant,(D) you slacker!(E)
Observe its ways and become wise.
7 Without leader, administrator, or ruler,
8 it prepares its provisions in summer;
it gathers its food during harvest.(F)
9 How long will you stay in bed, you slacker?
When will you get up from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the arms to rest,
11 and your poverty will come like a robber,
your need, like a bandit.(G)
The Malicious Man
12 A worthless person,(H) a wicked man
goes around speaking dishonestly,(I)
13 winking(J) his eyes, signalling with his feet,
and gesturing with his fingers.
14 He always plots evil(K) with perversity in his heart;
he stirs up trouble.(L)
15 Therefore calamity will strike him suddenly;
he will be shattered instantly, beyond recovery.(M)
What the Lord Hates
16 The Lord hates six things;
in fact, seven are detestable to him:
17 arrogant eyes,(N) a lying tongue,(O)
hands that shed innocent blood,(P)
18 a heart that plots wicked schemes,(Q)
feet eager to run to evil,(R)
19 a lying witness who gives false testimony,(S)
and one who stirs up trouble among brothers.(T)
Warning against Adultery
20 My son, keep your father’s command,
and don’t reject your mother’s teaching.(U)
21 Always bind them to your heart;
tie them round your neck.(V)
22 When you walk here and there, they will guide you;
when you lie down, they will watch over you;
when you wake up, they will talk to you.
23 For a command is a lamp, teaching is a light,(W)
and corrective discipline is the way to life.(X)
24 They will protect you from an evil woman,[e]
from the flattering tongue of a wayward woman.(Y)
25 Don’t lust in your heart for her beauty(Z)
or let her captivate you with her eyelashes.(AA)
26 For a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread,[f]
but the wife of another man[g] goes after a precious life.(AB)
27 Can a man embrace fire
and his clothes not be burned?
28 Can a man walk on burning coals
without scorching his feet?
29 So it is with the one who sleeps with
another man’s wife;
no one who touches her will go unpunished.(AC)
30 People don’t despise the thief if he steals
to satisfy himself when he is hungry.(AD)
31 Still, if caught, he must pay seven times as much;(AE)
he must give up all the wealth in his house.
32 The one who commits adultery[h] lacks sense;
whoever does so destroys himself.(AF)
33 He will get a beating[i] and dishonour,
and his disgrace will never be removed.
34 For jealousy enrages a husband,(AG)
and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.
35 He will not be appeased by anything
or be persuaded by lavish bribes.

Dangerous Promises
6 My son, (A)if you become [a]surety for your friend,
If you have [b]shaken hands in pledge for a stranger,
2 You are snared by the words of your mouth;
You are taken by the words of your mouth.
3 So do this, my son, and deliver yourself;
For you have come into the hand of your friend:
Go and humble yourself;
Plead with your friend.
4 (B)Give no sleep to your eyes,
Nor slumber to your eyelids.
5 Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter,
And like a bird from the hand of the [c]fowler.
The Folly of Indolence
6 (C)Go to the ant, you sluggard!
Consider her ways and be wise,
7 Which, having no [d]captain,
Overseer or ruler,
8 Provides her [e]supplies in the summer,
And gathers her food in the harvest.
9 (D)How long will you [f]slumber, O sluggard?
When will you rise from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep—
11 (E)So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler,
And your need like an armed man.
The Wicked Man
12 A worthless person, a wicked man,
Walks with a perverse mouth;
13 (F)He winks with his eyes,
He [g]shuffles his feet,
He points with his fingers;
14 Perversity is in his heart,
(G)He devises evil continually,
(H)He sows discord.
15 Therefore his calamity shall come (I)suddenly;
Suddenly he shall (J)be broken (K)without remedy.
16 These six things the Lord hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to [h]Him:
17 (L)A[i] proud look,
(M)A lying tongue,
(N)Hands that shed innocent blood,
18 (O)A heart that devises wicked plans,
(P)Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19 (Q)A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who (R)sows discord among brethren.
Beware of Adultery
20 (S)My son, keep your father’s command,
And do not forsake the law of your mother.
21 (T)Bind them continually upon your heart;
Tie them around your neck.
22 (U)When you roam, [j]they will lead you;
When you sleep, (V)they will keep you;
And when you awake, they will speak with you.
23 (W)For the commandment is a lamp,
And the law a light;
Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
24 (X)To keep you from the evil woman,
From the flattering tongue of a seductress.
25 (Y)Do not lust after her beauty in your heart,
Nor let her allure you with her eyelids.
26 For (Z)by means of a harlot
A man is reduced to a crust of bread;
(AA)And [k]an adulteress will (AB)prey upon his precious life.
27 Can a man take fire to his bosom,
And his clothes not be burned?
28 Can one walk on hot coals,
And his feet not be seared?
29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
Whoever touches her shall not be innocent.
30 People do not despise a thief
If he steals to satisfy himself when he is starving.
31 Yet when he is found, (AC)he must restore sevenfold;
He may have to give up all the substance of his house.
32 Whoever commits adultery with a woman (AD)lacks understanding;
He who does so destroys his own soul.
33 Wounds and dishonor he will get,
And his reproach will not be wiped away.
34 For (AE)jealousy is a husband’s fury;
Therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35 He will [l]accept no recompense,
Nor will he be appeased though you give many gifts.

箴言 6

箴言 6
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
替人作保要謹慎
6 我兒，如果你作朋友的保證人，
替外人擊掌擔保；
2 如果你給自己口裡的話纏累，
給你口裡的話綁住；
3 我兒，既然你落在你朋友的手中，
就要這樣行，好解救你自己，
你要自己降卑，去懇求你的朋友。
4 不要讓你的眼睛睡覺，
不要容你的眼瞼打盹；
5 要解救自己，像羚羊脫離獵人的手，
像飛鳥脫離捕鳥人的手。
不可懶惰
6 懶惰人哪！你去看看螞蟻，
察看牠們所行的，就可得著智慧。
7 螞蟻沒有元帥，
沒有官長，也沒有統治者，
8 尚且在夏天預備食物，
在收割的時候積聚糧食。
9 懶惰人哪，你要睡到幾時呢？
你甚麼時候才睡醒呢？
10 再睡片時，打盹片時，
抱著手躺臥片時，
11 你的貧窮就必像強盜來到，
你的缺乏就必像拿兵器的人來到。
耶和華憎惡的事
12 無賴漢、壞人
到處使用欺詐的口；
13 他以眼傳神，用腳示意，
用指頭指點，
14 心存乖謬，圖謀惡事，
常常散布紛爭。
15 因此，災難必忽然臨到，
他必突然毀滅，無法挽救。
16 耶和華恨惡的事有六樣，
連他心裡厭惡的，共有七樣，
17 就是高傲的眼、
說謊的舌頭、
流無辜人血的手、
18 圖謀惡事的心、
快跑行惡的腳、
19 說謊的假證人，
和在弟兄中散布紛爭的人。
犯姦淫的必惹禍患
20 我兒，要謹守你父親的誡命，
不可離棄你母親的訓誨。
21 要把它們常常繫在你的心上，
綁在你的頸項上。
22 你行走的時候，它們必引導你；
你睡覺的時候，它們必保護你；
你醒來的時候，它們必和你交談。
23 因為誡命是燈，訓誨是光，
出於管教的責備是生命之道，
24 能保護你遠離邪惡的女人，
遠離妓女諂媚的舌頭。
25 你心裡不要貪戀她的美色，
也不要給她的媚眼勾引。
26 因為妓女使人只剩一塊餅，
通姦的婦人（“通姦的婦人”直譯是“人的妻子”）獵取人寶貴的生命。
27 如果人把火藏在懷裡，
他的衣服怎能不燒著呢？
28 如果人在火炭上行走，
他的腳怎能不灼傷呢？
29 凡是和別人的妻子通姦的，也是這樣；
凡是親近她的，都必不免受罰。
30 盜賊因飢餓偷竊充飢，
人不會鄙視他。
31 但如果他被捉住，就要七倍償還，
要把他家裡所有的財物都交出來。
32 和婦人通姦的，實在無知；
行這事的，是自我毀滅。
33 他必遭受擊打，被凌辱，
他的恥辱永不能塗抹。
34 因為嫉妒激起了丈夫的烈怒，
使他在報仇的時候，必不留情。
35 任何賠償，他都不接受，
縱使你餽送許多禮物，他也不肯罷休。

Warnings Against Folly
6 My son,(A) if you have put up security(B) for your neighbor,(C)
if you have shaken hands in pledge(D) for a stranger,
2 you have been trapped by what you said,
ensnared by the words of your mouth.
3 So do this, my son, to free yourself,
since you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands:
Go—to the point of exhaustion—[a]
and give your neighbor no rest!
4 Allow no sleep to your eyes,
no slumber to your eyelids.(E)
5 Free yourself, like a gazelle(F) from the hand of the hunter,(G)
like a bird from the snare of the fowler.(H)
6 Go to the ant, you sluggard;(I)
consider its ways and be wise!
7 It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
8 yet it stores its provisions in summer(J)
and gathers its food at harvest.(K)
9 How long will you lie there, you sluggard?(L)
When will you get up from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest(M)—
11 and poverty(N) will come on you like a thief
and scarcity like an armed man.
12 A troublemaker and a villain,
who goes about with a corrupt mouth,
13 who winks maliciously with his eye,(O)
signals with his feet
and motions with his fingers,(P)
14 who plots evil(Q) with deceit in his heart—
he always stirs up conflict.(R)
15 Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant;(S)
he will suddenly(T) be destroyed—without remedy.(U)
16 There are six things the Lord hates,(V)
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,(W)
a lying tongue,(X)
hands that shed innocent blood,(Y)
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,(Z)
19 a false witness(AA) who pours out lies(AB)
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.(AC)
Warning Against Adultery
20 My son,(AD) keep your father’s command
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.(AE)
21 Bind them always on your heart;
fasten them around your neck.(AF)
22 When you walk, they will guide you;
when you sleep, they will watch over you;
when you awake, they will speak to you.
23 For this command is a lamp,
this teaching is a light,(AG)
and correction and instruction
are the way to life,(AH)
24 keeping you from your neighbor’s wife,
from the smooth talk of a wayward woman.(AI)
25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty
or let her captivate you with her eyes.
26 For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread,
but another man’s wife preys on your very life.(AJ)
27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap
without his clothes being burned?
28 Can a man walk on hot coals
without his feet being scorched?
29 So is he who sleeps(AK) with another man’s wife;(AL)
no one who touches her will go unpunished.
30 People do not despise a thief if he steals
to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.
31 Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold,(AM)
though it costs him all the wealth of his house.
32 But a man who commits adultery(AN) has no sense;(AO)
whoever does so destroys himself.
33 Blows and disgrace are his lot,
and his shame will never(AP) be wiped away.
