箴言 27
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1不要为明日自夸, 因为一日要生何事,你尚且不能知道。
1Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.
2要别人夸奖你,不可用口自夸; 等外人称赞你,不可用嘴自称。
2Let another praise you, and not your own mouth— a stranger, and not your own lips.
3石头重,沙土沉, 愚妄人的恼怒比这两样更重。
3A stone is heavy and sand is a burden, but aggravation from a fool outweighs them both.
4忿怒为残忍,怒气为狂澜, 惟有嫉妒,谁能敌得住呢?
4Wrath is cruel and anger is like a flood, but who can withstand jealousy?
5当面的责备强如背地的爱情。
5Better an open rebuke than love that is concealed.
6朋友加的伤痕出于忠诚; 仇敌连连亲嘴却是多余。
6The wounds of a friend are faithful, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
7人吃饱了,厌恶蜂房的蜜; 人饥饿了,一切苦物都觉甘甜。
7The soul that is full loathes honey, but to a hungry soul, any bitter thing is sweet.
8人离本处飘流, 好像雀鸟离窝游飞。
8Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man who wanders from his home.
9膏油与香料使人心喜悦; 朋友诚实的劝教也是如此甘美。
9Oil and incense bring joy to the heart, and the sweetness of a friend is counsel to the soul.
10你的朋友和父亲的朋友, 你都不可离弃。 你遭难的日子,不要上弟兄的家去; 相近的邻舍强如远方的弟兄。
10Do not forsake your friend or your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; better a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.
11我儿,你要作智慧人,好叫我的心欢喜, 使我可以回答那讥诮我的人。
11Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart, so that I can answer him who taunts me.
12通达人见祸藏躲; 愚蒙人前往受害。
12The prudent see danger and take cover; but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.
13谁为生人作保,就拿谁的衣服; 谁为外女 作保 ,谁就承当。
13Take the garment of him who posts security for a stranger; get collateral if it is for a foreigner.
14清晨起来,大声给朋友祝福的, 就算是咒诅他。
14If one blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be counted to him as a curse.
15大雨之日连连滴漏, 和争吵的妇人一样;
15A constant dripping on a rainy day and a contentious woman are alike—
16想拦阻她的,便是拦阻风, 也是右手抓油。
16restraining her is like holding back the wind or grasping oil with one’s right hand.
17铁磨铁,磨出刃来; 朋友相感也是如此。
17As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
18看守无花果树的,必吃树上的果子; 敬奉主人的,必得尊荣。
18Whoever tends a fig tree will eat its fruit, and he who looks after his master will be honored.
19水中照脸,彼此 相符 ; 人与人,心也 相对 。
19As water reflects the face, so the heart reflects the true man.
20阴间和灭亡永不满足; 人的眼目也是如此。
20Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
21鼎为炼银,炉为炼金, 人的称赞也 试炼 人。
21A crucible for silver and a furnace for gold, but a man is tested by the praise accorded him.
22你虽用杵将愚妄人与打碎的麦子一同捣在臼中, 他的愚妄还是离不了他。
22Though you grind a fool like grain with mortar and a pestle, yet his folly will not depart from him.
23你要详细知道你羊群的景况, 留心料理你的牛群;
23Be sure to know the state of your flocks, and pay close attention to your herds;
24因为资财不能永有, 冠冕岂能存到万代?
24for riches are not forever, nor does a crown endure to every generation.
25干草割去,嫩草发现, 山上的菜蔬也被收敛。
25When hay is removed and new growth appears and the grain from the hills is gathered,
26羊羔 之毛 是为你作衣服; 山羊是为作田地的价值,
26the lambs will provide you with clothing, and the goats with the price of a field.
27并有母山羊奶够你吃, 也够你的家眷吃, 且够养你的婢女。
27You will have plenty of goats’ milk to feed you— food for your household and nourishment for your maidservants.
