箴言 26
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1夏天落雪,收割时下雨,都不相宜; 愚昧人得尊荣也是如此。
1As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
2麻雀往来,燕子翻飞; 这样,无故的咒诅也必不临到。
2As the wandering sparrow, as the flying swallow, so the curse that is causeless shall come home.
3鞭子是为打马,辔头是为勒驴; 刑杖是为打愚昧人的背。
3A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the back of fools.
4不要照愚昧人的愚妄话回答他, 恐怕你与他一样。
4Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
5要照愚昧人的愚妄话回答他, 免得他自以为有智慧。
5Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.
6借愚昧人手寄信的, 是砍断 自己的 脚,自受损害。
6He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off his own feet, and drinketh damage.
7瘸子的脚空存无用; 箴言在愚昧人的口中也是如此。
7The legs hang limp from the lame; so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
8将尊荣给愚昧人的, 好像人把石子包在机弦里。
8As a small stone in a heap of stones, so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
9箴言在愚昧人的口中, 好像荆棘刺入醉汉的手。
9As a thorn that cometh into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
10雇愚昧人的,与雇过路人的, 就像射伤众人的弓箭手。
10A master performeth all things; but he that stoppeth a fool is as one that stoppeth a flood.
11愚昧人行愚妄事,行了又行, 就如狗转过来吃它所吐的。
11As a dog that returneth to his vomit, so is a fool that repeateth his folly.
12你见自以为有智慧的人吗? 愚昧人比他更有指望。
12Seest thou a man wise in his own eyes? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
13懒惰人说:道上有猛狮, 街上有壮狮。
13The sluggard saith: 'There is a lion in the way; yea, a lion is in the streets.'
14门在枢纽转动, 懒惰人在床上也是如此。
14The door is turning upon its hinges, and the sluggard is still upon his bed.
15懒惰人放手在盘子里, 就是向口撤回也以为劳乏。
15The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish; it wearieth him to bring it back to his mouth.
16懒惰人看自己比七个善于应对的人更有智慧。
16The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men that give wise answer.
17过路被事激动,管理不干己的争竞, 好像人揪住狗耳。
17He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife not his own, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
18人欺凌邻舍,却说: 我岂不是戏耍吗? 他就像疯狂的人抛掷火把、利箭, 与杀人的兵器。
18As a madman who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death;
no verse 19 in this text
19So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith: 'Am not I in sport?'
20火缺了柴就必熄灭; 无人传舌,争竞便止息。
20Where no wood is, the fire goeth out; and where there is no whisperer, contention ceaseth.
21好争竞的人煽惑争端, 就如余火加炭,火上加柴一样。
21As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
22传舌人的言语,如同美食, 深入人的心腹。
22The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the body.
23火热的嘴,奸恶的心, 好像银渣包的瓦器。
23Burning lips and a wicked heart are like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
24怨恨人的,用嘴粉饰, 心里却藏着诡诈;
24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, but he layeth up deceit within him.
25他用甜言蜜语,你不可信他, 因为他心中有七样可憎恶的。
25When he speaketh fair, believe him not; for there are seven abominations in his heart.
26他虽用诡诈遮掩自己的怨恨, 他的邪恶必在会中显露。
26Though his hatred be concealed with deceit, his wickedness shall be revealed before the congregation.
27挖陷坑的,自己必掉在其中; 滚石头的,石头必反滚在他身上。
27Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; and he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.
28虚谎的舌恨他所压伤的人; 谄媚的口败坏人的事。
28A lying tongue hateth those that are crushed by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
