箴言 9
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
愚蒙人當轉向智慧
9 智慧建造自己的房屋，
鑿成七根柱子。
2 它宰殺牲口，調配美酒，
擺設筵席。
3 它差派幾個使女出去，
自己又在城裡的高處呼喊：
4 “誰是愚蒙人，
可以到這裡來！”
又對無知的人說：
5 “你們都來，吃我的餅，
喝我調配的酒。
6 愚蒙人哪！你們要丟棄愚蒙，就可以存活，
並且要走在智慧的道路上。”
7 糾正好譏笑人的，必自招恥辱；
責備惡人的，必遭受羞辱。
8 你不要責備好譏笑人的，
免得他恨你；
要責備智慧人，他必愛你。
9 教導智慧人，他就越有智慧；
指教義人，他就增加學問。
10 敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端，
認識至聖者就是聰明。
11 因為藉著我，你的日子就必增多，
你一生的年歲也必加添。
12 如果你有智慧，你的智慧必使你得益；
如果你譏笑人，你就必獨自擔當一切後果。
13 愚昧的婦人喧嘩不停，
她是愚蒙，一無所知。
14 她坐在自己的家門口，
坐在城中高處的座位上，
15 向過路的人呼叫，
就是向往前直行的人呼叫：
16 “誰是愚蒙人，可以到這裡來！”
又對無知的人說：
17 “偷來的水是甜的，
在暗中吃的餅是美味的。”
18 人卻不知道她那裡有陰魂，
她的客人是在陰間的深處。
Proverbs 9
English Standard Version
The Way of Wisdom
9 (A)Wisdom has built her house;
she has hewn her (B)seven (C)pillars.
2 She has (D)slaughtered her beasts; she has (E)mixed her wine;
she has also (F)set her table.
3 She has (G)sent out her young women to (H)call
from (I)the highest places in the town,
4 (J)“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
(K)To him who lacks sense she says,
5 “Come, (L)eat of my bread
and (M)drink of (N)the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave (O)your simple ways,[a] and (P)live,
(Q)and walk in the way of insight.”
7 Whoever corrects a scoffer gets himself abuse,
and he who reproves a wicked man incurs injury.
8 (R)Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you;
(S)reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
9 Give instruction[b] to a wise man, and he will be (T)still wiser;
teach a righteous man, and he will (U)increase in learning.
10 (V)The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and (W)the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.
11 For by me (X)your days will be multiplied,
and years will be added to your life.
12 (Y)If you are wise, you are wise for yourself;
if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
The Way of Folly
13 (Z)The woman Folly is (AA)loud;
she is seductive[c] and (AB)knows nothing.
14 She sits at the door of her house;
she takes a seat on (AC)the highest places of the town,
15 calling to those who pass by,
who are (AD)going straight on their way,
16 (AE)“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
And to him who lacks sense she says,
17 (AF)“Stolen water is sweet,
and (AG)bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”
18 But he does not know (AH)that the dead[d] are there,
that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

Ang Karunungan at ang Kahangalan
9 Gumawa na ng tahanan itong karunungan,
na itinayo niya sa pitong patibayan.
2 Nagpatay siya ng hayop, nagtimpla ng inumin,
ang mesa ay inihanda, punung-puno ng pagkain.
3 Katulong ay isinugo sa gitna nitong bayan,
upang lahat ay abutin ng ganitong panawagan:
4 “Ang kulang sa kaalaman, dito ngayon ay lumapit.”
Sa mga mangmang ay ganito ang sinambit:
5 “Halikayo't inyong kainin ang pagkain ko,
at tunggain ang inuming inilaan ko sa inyo.
6 Lisanin ang kamangmangan upang kayo ay mabuhay,
at ang landas ng unawa ang tahakin at daanan.”
7 Ang pumupuna sa mapangutya ay nag-aani ng pagdusta,
ang nagtutuwid sa masama'y nagkakamit ng alipusta.
8 Punahin mo ang mapangutya at magagalit pa sa iyo,
ngunit payuhan mo ang matalino at iibigin ka nito.
9 Matalino'y turuan mo't lalo siyang tatalino,
ang matuwid ay aralan, lalago ang dunong nito.
10 Ang(A) paggalang at pagsunod kay Yahweh ay pasimula ng karunungan,
ang pagkilala sa Banal na Diyos ay may dulot na kaalaman.
11 Sa pamamagitan ko, hahaba ang iyong mga araw,
dahil sa akin, lalawig ang iyong buhay.
12 Kung mayroon kang karunungan, mayroon kang pakinabang,
ngunit ika'y magdurusa kapag siya'y tinanggihan.
13 Ang nakakatulad nitong taong mangmang,
babaing magaslaw at walang kahihiyan.
14 Lagi siyang naroon sa pinto ng kanyang bahay,
o sa lantad na bahagi ng lansangan nitong bayan.
15 Bawat taong nagdaraan na kanyang masulyapan,
ay pilit na tatawagin at kanyang aanyayahan,
16 “Lapit dito, kayong lahat na kulang sa kaalaman!”
Kanya namang sinasabi sa mga mangmang,
17 “Tubig na ninakaw ay ubod ng tamis,
tinapay na nakaw, masarap na labis.”
18 Hindi alam ng biktimang wakas niyo'y kamatayan,
at lahat ng pumasok doo'y naroon na sa libingan.

Proverbs 9
King James Version
9 Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
2 She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
3 She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
4 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
5 Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
6 Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
7 He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
11 For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
12 If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
13 A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.
14 For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
15 To call passengers who go right on their ways:
16 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
17 Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.
18 But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
