箴言 6
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
替人作保要谨慎
6 我儿,如果你作朋友的保证人,
替外人击掌担保;
2 如果你给自己口里的话缠累,
给你口里的话绑住;
3 我儿,既然你落在你朋友的手中,
就要这样行,好解救你自己,
你要自己降卑,去恳求你的朋友。
4 不要让你的眼睛睡觉,
不要容你的眼睑打盹;
5 要解救自己,像羚羊脱离猎人的手,
像飞鸟脱离捕鸟人的手。
不可懒惰
6 懒惰人哪!你去看看蚂蚁,
察看牠们所行的,就可得着智慧。
7 蚂蚁没有元帅,
没有官长,也没有统治者,
8 尚且在夏天预备食物,
在收割的时候积聚粮食。
9 懒惰人哪,你要睡到几时呢?
你甚么时候才睡醒呢?
10 再睡片时,打盹片时,
抱着手躺卧片时,
11 你的贫穷就必像强盗来到,
你的缺乏就必像拿兵器的人来到。
耶和华憎恶的事
12 无赖汉、坏人
到处使用欺诈的口;
13 他以眼传神,用脚示意,
用指头指点,
14 心存乖谬,图谋恶事,
常常散布纷争。
15 因此,灾难必忽然临到,
他必突然毁灭,无法挽救。
16 耶和华恨恶的事有六样,
连他心里厌恶的,共有七样,
17 就是高傲的眼、
说谎的舌头、
流无辜人血的手、
18 图谋恶事的心、
快跑行恶的脚、
19 说谎的假证人,
和在弟兄中散布纷争的人。
犯奸淫的必惹祸患
20 我儿,要谨守你父亲的诫命,
不可离弃你母亲的训诲。
21 要把它们常常系在你的心上,
绑在你的颈项上。
22 你行走的时候,它们必引导你;
你睡觉的时候,它们必保护你;
你醒来的时候,它们必和你交谈。
23 因为诫命是灯,训诲是光,
出于管教的责备是生命之道,
24 能保护你远离邪恶的女人,
远离妓女谄媚的舌头。
25 你心里不要贪恋她的美色,
也不要给她的媚眼勾引。
26 因为妓女使人只剩一块饼,
通奸的妇人(“通奸的妇人”直译是“人的妻子”)猎取人宝贵的生命。
27 如果人把火藏在怀里,
他的衣服怎能不烧着呢?
28 如果人在火炭上行走,
他的脚怎能不灼伤呢?
29 凡是和别人的妻子通奸的,也是这样;
凡是亲近她的,都必不免受罚。
30 盗贼因饥饿偷窃充饥,
人不会鄙视他。
31 但如果他被捉住,就要七倍偿还,
要把他家里所有的财物都交出来。
32 和妇人通奸的,实在无知;
行这事的,是自我毁灭。
33 他必遭受击打,被凌辱,
他的耻辱永不能涂抹。
34 因为嫉妒激起了丈夫的烈怒,
使他在报仇的时候,必不留情。
35 任何赔偿,他都不接受,
纵使你馈送许多礼物,他也不肯罢休。
Proverbs 6
New International Version
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.
