箴言 30
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1雅基 的儿子 亚古珥 的言语就是真言。 这人对 以铁 和 乌甲 说：
1The words of Agur the son of Jakeh; the burden. The man saith unto Ithiel, unto Ithiel and Ucal:
2我比众人更蠢笨， 也没有人的聪明。
2Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man;
3我没有学好智慧， 也不认识至圣者。
3And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One.
4谁升天又降下来？ 谁聚风在掌握中？ 谁包水在衣服里？ 谁立定地的四极？ 他名叫什么？ 他儿子名叫什么？ 你知道吗？
4Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest?
5神的言语句句都是炼净的； 投靠他的，他便作他们的盾牌。
5Every word of God is tried; He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him.
6他的言语，你不可加添， 恐怕他责备你，你就显为说谎言的。
6Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
7我求你两件事， 在我未死之先，不要不赐给我：
7Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die:
8求你使虚假和谎言远离我； 使我也不贫穷也不富足； 赐给我需用的饮食，
8Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread;
9恐怕我饱足不认 你 ，说： 耶和华是谁呢？ 又恐怕我贫穷就偷窃， 以致亵渎我 神的名。
9Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God.
10你不要向主人谗谤仆人， 恐怕他咒诅你，你便算为有罪。
10Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.
11有一宗人，咒诅父亲， 不给母亲祝福。
11There is a generation that curse their father, and do not bless their mother.
12有一宗人，自以为清洁， 却没有洗去自己的污秽。
12There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet are not washed from their filthiness.
13有一宗人，眼目何其高傲， 眼皮也是高举。
13There is a generation, Oh how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14有一宗人，牙如剑，齿如刀， 要吞灭地上的困苦人和世间的穷乏人。
14There is a generation whose teeth are as swords, and their great teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
15蚂蟥有两个女儿， 常说 ：给呀，给呀！ 有三样不知足的， 连不说「够的」共有四样：
15The horseleech hath two daughters: 'Give, give.' There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four that say not: 'Enough':
16就是阴间和石胎， 浸水不足的地，并火。
16The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not satisfied with water; and the fire that saith not: 'Enough.'
17戏笑父亲、藐视而不听从母亲的， 他的眼睛必为谷中的乌鸦啄出来，为鹰雏所吃。
17The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young vultures shall eat it.
18我所测不透的奇妙有三样， 连我所不知道的共有四样：
18There are three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not:
19就是鹰在空中飞的道； 蛇在磐石上爬的道； 船在海中行的道； 男与女交合的道。
19The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a man with a young woman.
20淫妇的道也是这样： 她吃了，把嘴一擦就说： 我没有行恶。
20So is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith: 'I have done no wickedness.'
21使地震动的有三样， 连地担不起的共有四样：
21For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure:
22就是仆人作王； 愚顽人吃饱；
22For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
23丑恶的女子出嫁； 婢女接续主母。
23For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress.
24地上有四样小物，却甚聪明：
24There are four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:
25蚂蚁是无力之类， 却在夏天预备粮食。
25The ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer;
26沙番是软弱之类， 却在磐石中造房。
26The rock-badgers are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the crags;
27蝗虫没有君王， 却分队而出。
27The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;
28守宫用爪抓 墙 ， 却住在王宫。
28The spider thou canst take with the hands, yet is she in kings' palaces.
29步行威武的有三样， 连行走威武的共有四样：
29There are three things which are stately in their march, yea, four which are stately in going:
30就是狮子—乃百兽中最为猛烈、无所躲避的，
30The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, and turneth not away for any;
31猎狗，公山羊，和无人能敌的君王。
31The greyhound; the he-goat also; and the king, against whom there is no rising up.
32你若行事愚顽，自高自傲， 或是怀了恶念，就当用手 捂口 。
32If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast planned devices, lay thy hand upon thy mouth.
33摇牛奶必成奶油； 扭鼻子必出血。 照样，激动怒气必起争端。
33For the churning of milk bringeth forth curd, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood; so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife.
