箴言雜記
28 惡人雖無人追趕也逃跑，義人卻膽壯像獅子。 2 邦國因有罪過，君王就多更換。因有聰明、知識的人，國必長存。 3 窮人欺壓貧民，好像暴雨沖沒糧食。 4 違棄律法的誇獎惡人，遵守律法的卻與惡人相爭。 5 壞人不明白公義，唯有尋求耶和華的無不明白。 6 行為純正的窮乏人，勝過行事乖僻的富足人。 7 謹守律法的是智慧之子，與貪食人做伴的卻羞辱其父。 8 人以厚利加增財物，是給那憐憫窮人者積蓄的。 9 轉耳不聽律法的，他的祈禱也為可憎。 10 誘惑正直人行惡道的，必掉在自己的坑裡；唯有完全人，必承受福分。 11 富足人自以為有智慧，但聰明的貧窮人能將他查透。 12 義人得志，有大榮耀；惡人興起，人就躲藏。 13 遮掩自己罪過的必不亨通，承認、離棄罪過的必蒙憐恤。 14 常存敬畏的便為有福，心存剛硬的必陷在禍患裡。 15 暴虐的君王轄制貧民，好像吼叫的獅子、覓食的熊。 16 無知的君多行暴虐，以貪財為可恨的必年長日久。 17 背負流人血之罪的必往坑裡奔跑，誰也不可攔阻他。 18 行動正直的必蒙拯救，行事彎曲的立時跌倒。 19 耕種自己田地的必得飽食，追隨虛浮的足受窮乏。 20 誠實人必多得福，想要急速發財的不免受罰。 21 看人的情面乃為不好，人因一塊餅枉法也為不好。 22 人有惡眼想要急速發財，卻不知窮乏必臨到他身。 23 責備人的後來蒙人喜悅，多於那用舌頭諂媚人的。 24 偷竊父母的說「這不是罪」，此人就是與強盜同類。 25 心中貪婪的挑起爭端，倚靠耶和華的必得豐裕。 26 心中自是的便是愚昧人，憑智慧行事的必蒙拯救。 27 賙濟貧窮的不致缺乏，佯為不見的必多受咒詛。 28 惡人興起，人就躲藏；惡人敗亡，義人增多。
Proverbs 28
New International Version
Proverbs 28
New International Version
2 When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers,
but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order.
3 A ruler[a] who oppresses the poor
is like a driving rain that leaves no crops.
4 Those who forsake instruction praise the wicked,
but those who heed it resist them.
5 Evildoers do not understand what is right,
but those who seek the Lord understand it fully.
6 Better the poor whose walk is blameless
than the rich whose ways are perverse.(D)
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,
but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.(E)
8 Whoever increases wealth by taking interest(F) or profit from the poor
amasses it for another,(G) who will be kind to the poor.(H)
9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,
even their prayers are detestable.(I)
10 Whoever leads the upright along an evil path
will fall into their own trap,(J)
but the blameless will receive a good inheritance.
11 The rich are wise in their own eyes;
one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are.
12 When the righteous triumph, there is great elation;(K)
but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.(L)
13 Whoever conceals their sins(M) does not prosper,
but the one who confesses(N) and renounces them finds mercy.(O)
14 Blessed is the one who always trembles before God,
but whoever hardens their heart falls into trouble.
15 Like a roaring lion or a charging bear
is a wicked ruler over a helpless people.
16 A tyrannical ruler practices extortion,
but one who hates ill-gotten gain will enjoy a long reign.
17 Anyone tormented by the guilt of murder
will seek refuge(P) in the grave;
let no one hold them back.
18 The one whose walk is blameless is kept safe,(Q)
but the one whose ways are perverse will fall(R) into the pit.[b]
19 Those who work their land will have abundant food,
but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.(S)
20 A faithful person will be richly blessed,
but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.(T)
22 The stingy are eager to get rich
and are unaware that poverty awaits them.(X)
23 Whoever rebukes a person will in the end gain favor
rather than one who has a flattering tongue.(Y)
24 Whoever robs their father or mother(Z)
and says, “It’s not wrong,”
is partner to one who destroys.(AA)
27 Those who give to the poor will lack nothing,(AF)
but those who close their eyes to them receive many curses.(AG)
28 When the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding;(AH)
but when the wicked perish, the righteous thrive.

New Life Version
Proverbs 28
New Life Version
28 The sinful run away when no one is trying to catch them, but those who are right with God have as much strength of heart as a lion.
2 When a nation sins, it has many rulers, but with a man of understanding and much learning, it will last a long time.
3 A poor man who makes it hard for the poor is like a heavy rain which leaves no food.
4 Those who turn away from the law praise the sinful, but those who keep the law fight against them.
5 Sinful men do not understand what is right and fair, but those who look to the Lord understand all things.
6 A poor man who walks in his honor is better than a rich man who is sinful in his ways.
7 He who keeps the law is a wise son, but a friend of men who eat too much puts his father to shame.
8 He who gets money by being paid much for the use of it, gathers it for him who will be kind to the poor.
9 He who turns his ear away from listening to the law, even his prayer is a hated thing.
10 He who leads good people into a sinful way will fall into his own deep hole, but good will come to those without blame.
11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes, but the poor man who has understanding sees through him.
12 When those who are right with God win, there is great honor, but when the sinful rule, men hide themselves.
13 It will not go well for the man who hides his sins, but he who tells his sins and turns from them will be given loving-pity.
14 Happy is the man who always fears the Lord, but he who makes his heart hard will fall into trouble.
15 A sinful ruler over poor people is like a lion making noise or a bear running to fight.
16 A ruler who takes much from the people who have little does not have understanding. But he who hates wanting something that belongs to someone else will live a long time.
17 A man who is loaded down with the guilt of human blood will run in fear until death. Let no one help him.
18 He who walks without blame will be kept safe, but he who is sinful will fall all at once.
19 He who works his land will have more than enough food, but he who wastes his time will become very poor.
20 A faithful man will have many good things, but he who hurries to be rich will be punished for it.
21 To show favor is not good, because a man will sin for a piece of bread.
22 A man with a sinful eye hurries to be rich. He does not know that he will be in need.
23 He who speaks strong words to a man will later find more favor than he who gives false respect with his tongue.
24 He who robs his father or his mother, and says, “It is not a sin,” is the friend of a man who destroys.
25 A proud man starts fights, but all will go well for the man who trusts in the Lord.
26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be kept safe.
27 He who gives to the poor will never want, but many bad things will happen to the man who shuts his eyes to the poor.
28 When the sinful rule, men hide themselves, but when they pass away, those who do what is right become many.
