箴言 6
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1我儿,你若为朋友作保, 替外人击掌,
1My son, if thou art become surety for thy neighbour, if thou hast struck thy hands for a stranger —
2你就被口中的话语缠住, 被嘴里的言语捉住。
2Thou art snared by the words of thy mouth, thou art caught by the words of thy mouth —
3我儿,你既落在朋友手中, 就当这样行才可救自己: 你要自卑,去恳求你的朋友。
3Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, seeing thou art come into the hand of thy neighbour; go, humble thyself, and urge thy neighbour.
4不要容你的眼睛睡觉; 不要容你的眼皮打盹。
4Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
5要救自己,如鹿脱离 猎户的 手, 如鸟脱离捕鸟人的手。
5Deliver thyself as a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6懒惰人哪, 你去察看蚂蚁的动作就可得智慧。
6Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise;
7蚂蚁没有元帅, 没有官长,没有君王,
7Which having no chief, overseer, or ruler,
8尚且在夏天预备食物, 在收割时聚敛粮食。
8Provideth her bread in the summer, and gatherest her food in the harvest.
9懒惰人哪,你要睡到几时呢? 你何时睡醒呢?
9How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
10再睡片时,打盹片时, 抱着手躺卧片时,
10'Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep' —
11你的贫穷就必如强盗速来, 你的缺乏仿佛拿兵器的人来到。
11So shall thy poverty come as a runner, and thy want as an armed man.
12无赖的恶徒, 行动就用乖僻的口,
12A base person, a man of iniquity, is he that walketh with a froward mouth;
13用眼传神, 用脚示意, 用指点划,
13That winketh with his eyes, that scrapeth with his feet, that pointeth with his fingers;
14心中乖僻, 常设恶谋, 布散纷争。
14Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth evil continually; he soweth discord.
15所以,灾难必忽然临到他身; 他必顷刻败坏,无法可治。
15Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; on a sudden shall he be broken, and that without remedy.
16耶和华所恨恶的有六样, 连他心所憎恶的共有七样:
16There are six things which the LORD hateth, yea, seven which are an abomination unto Him:
17就是高傲的眼, 撒谎的舌, 流无辜人血的手,
17Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood;
18图谋恶计的心, 飞跑行恶的脚,
18A heart that deviseth wicked thoughts, feet that are swift in running to evil;
19吐谎言的假见证, 并弟兄中布散纷争的人。
19A false witness that breatheth out lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
20我儿,要谨守你父亲的诫命; 不可离弃你母亲的法则,
20My son, keep the commandment of thy father, and forsake not the teaching of thy mother;
21要常系在你心上, 挂在你项上。
21Bind them continually upon thy heart, tie them about thy neck.
22你行走,它必引导你; 你躺卧,它必保守你; 你睡醒,它必与你谈论。
22When thou walkest, it shall lead thee, when thou liest down, it shall watch over thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.
23因为诫命是灯,法则是光, 训诲的责备是生命的道,
23For the commandment is a lamp, and the teaching is light, and reproofs of instruction are the way of life;
24能保你远离恶妇, 远离外女谄媚的舌头。
24To keep thee from the evil woman, from the smoothness of the alien tongue.
25你心中不要恋慕她的美色, 也不要被她眼皮勾引。
25Lust not after her beauty in thy heart; neither let her captivate thee with her eyelids.
26因为,妓女 能使人 只剩一块饼; 淫妇猎取人宝贵的生命。
26For on account of a harlot a man is brought to a loaf of bread, but the adulteress hunteth for the precious life.
27人若怀里搋火, 衣服岂能不烧呢?
27Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
28人若在火炭上走, 脚岂能不烫呢?
28Or can one walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?
29亲近邻舍之妻的,也是如此; 凡挨近她的,不免受罚。
29So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not go unpunished.
30贼因饥饿偷窃充饥, 人不藐视他,
30Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;
31若被找着,他必赔还七倍, 必将家中所有的尽都偿还。
31But if he be found, he must restore sevenfold, he must give all the substance of his house.
32与妇人行淫的,便是无知; 行这事的,必丧掉生命。
32He that committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding; he doeth it that would destroy his own soul.
33他必受伤损,必被凌辱; 他的羞耻不得涂抹。
33Wounds and dishonour shall he get, and his reproach shall not be wiped away.
34因为人的嫉恨成了烈怒, 报仇的时候决不留情。
34For jealousy is the rage of a man, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35什么赎价,他都不顾; 你虽送许多礼物,他也不肯干休。
35He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
