箴言 7
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1我儿,你要遵守我的言语, 将我的命令存记在心。
1My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
2遵守我的命令就得存活; 保守我的法则, 好像保守眼中的瞳人,
2Keep my commandments and live, and my teaching as the apple of thine eye.
3系在你指头上, 刻在你心版上。
3Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thy heart.
4对智慧说:你是我的姊妹, 称呼聪明为你的亲人,
4Say unto wisdom: 'Thou art my sister', and call understanding thy kinswoman;
5她就保你远离淫妇, 远离说谄媚话的外女。
5That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the alien woman that maketh smooth her words.
6我曾在我房屋的窗户内, 从我窗棂之间往外观看:
6For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice;
7见愚蒙人内,少年人中, 分明有一个无知的少年人,
7And I beheld among the thoughtless ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
8从街上经过,走近淫妇的巷口, 直往通她家的路去,
8Passing through the street near her corner, and he went the way to her house;
9在黄昏,或晚上, 或半夜,或黑暗之中。
9In the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the blackness of night and the darkness.
10看哪,有一个妇人来迎接他, 是妓女的打扮,有诡诈的心思。
10And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of a harlot, and wily of heart.
11这妇人喧嚷,不守约束, 在家里停不住脚,
11She is riotous and rebellious, her feet abide not in her house;
12有时在街市上,有时在宽阔处, 或在各巷口蹲伏,
12Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, and lieth in wait at every corner.
13拉住那少年人,与他亲嘴, 脸无羞耻对他说:
13So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face she said unto him:
14平安祭在我这里, 今日才还了我所许的愿。
14'Sacrifices of peace-offerings were due from me; this day have I paid my vows.
15因此,我出来迎接你, 恳切求见你的面,恰巧遇见了你。
15Therefore came I forth to meet thee, to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
16我已经用绣花毯子 和 埃及 线织的花纹布铺了我的床。
16I have decked my couch with coverlets, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.
17我又用没药、沉香、桂皮 薰了我的榻。
17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
18你来,我们可以饱享爱情,直到早晨; 我们可以彼此亲爱欢乐。
18Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us solace ourselves with loves.
19因为我丈夫不在家,出门行远路;
19For my husband is not at home, he is gone a long journey;
20他手拿银囊,必到月望才回家。
20He hath taken the bag of money with him; he will come home at the full moon.'
21淫妇用许多巧言诱他随从, 用谄媚的嘴逼他同行。
21With her much fair speech she causeth him to yield, with the blandishment of her lips she enticeth him away.
22少年人立刻跟随她,好像牛往宰杀之地; 又像愚昧人带锁链去受刑罚,
22He goeth after her straightway, as an ox that goeth to the slaughter, or as one in fetters to the correction of the fool;
23直等箭穿他的肝; 如同雀鸟急入网罗,却不知是自丧己命。
23Till an arrow strike through his liver; as a bird hasteneth to the snare — and knoweth not that it is at the cost of his life.
24众子啊,现在要听从我, 留心听我口中的话。
24Now therefore, O ye children, hearken unto me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25你的心不可偏向淫妇的道, 不要入她的迷途。
25Let not thy heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
26因为,被她伤害仆倒的不少; 被她杀戮的而且甚多。
26For she hath cast down many wounded; yea, a mighty host are all her slain.
27她的家是在阴间之路, 下到死亡之宫。
27Her house is the way to the nether-world, going down to the chambers of death.
