箴言 11
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1詭詐的天平為耶和華所憎惡; 公平的法碼為他所喜悅。
1A deceitful balance is an abomination before the Lord: and a just weight is his will.
2驕傲來,羞恥也來; 謙遜人卻有智慧。
2Where pride is, there also shall be reproach: but where humility is, there also is wisdom.
3正直人的純正必引導自己; 奸詐人的乖僻必毀滅自己。
3The simplicity of the just shall guide them: and the deceitfulness of the wicked shall destroy them.
4發怒的日子資財無益; 惟有公義能救人脫離死亡。
4Riches shall not profit in the day of revenge: but justice shall deliver from death.
5完全人的義必指引他的路; 但惡人必因自己的惡跌倒。
5The justice of the upright shall make his way prosperous: and the wicked man shall fall by his own wickedness.
6正直人的義必拯救自己; 奸詐人必陷在自己的罪孽中。
6The justice of the righteous shall deliver them: and the unjust shall be caught in their own snares.
7惡人一死,他的指望必滅絕; 罪人的盼望也必滅沒。
7When the wicked man is dead, there shall be no hope any more: and the expectation of the solicitous shall perish.
8義人得脫離患難, 有惡人來代替他。
8The just is delivered out of distress: and the wicked shall be given up for him.
9不虔敬的人用口敗壞鄰舍; 義人卻因知識得救。
9The dissembler with his mouth deceiveth his friend: but the just shall be delivered by knowledge.
10義人享福,合城喜樂; 惡人滅亡,人都歡呼。
10When it goeth well with the just the city shall rejoice: and when the wicked perish there shall be praise.
11城因正直人祝福便高舉, 卻因邪惡人的口就傾覆。
11By the blessing of the just the city shall be exalted: and by the mouth of the wicked it shall be overthrown.
12藐視鄰舍的,毫無智慧; 明哲人卻靜默不言。
12He that despiseth his friend, is mean of heart: but the wise man will hold his peace.
13往來傳舌的,洩漏密事; 心中誠實的,遮隱事情。
13He that walketh deceitfully, revealeth secrets: but he that is faithful, concealeth the thing committed to him by his friend.
14無智謀,民就敗落; 謀士多,人便安居。
14Where there is no governor, the people shall fall: but there is safety where there is much counsel.
15為外人作保的,必受虧損; 恨惡擊掌的,卻得安穩。
15He shall be afflicted with evil, that is surety for a stranger: but he that is aware of the snares, shall be secure.
16恩德的婦女得尊榮; 強暴的男子得資財。
16A gracious woman shall find glory: and the strong shall have riches.
17仁慈的人善待自己; 殘忍的人擾害己身。
17A merciful man doth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel casteth off even his own kindred.
18惡人經營,得虛浮的工價; 撒義種的,得實在的果效。
18The wicked maketh an unsteady work: but to him that soweth justice, there is a faithful reward.
19恆心為義的, 必得 生命; 追求邪惡的, 必致 死亡。
19Clemency prepareth life: and the pursuing of evil things, death.
20心中乖僻的,為耶和華所憎惡; 行事完全的,為他所喜悅。
20A perverse heart is abominable to the Lord: and his will is in them that walk sincerely.
21惡人 雖然 連手,必不免受罰; 義人的後裔必得拯救。
21Hand in hand the evil man shall not be innocent: but the seed of the just shall be saved.
22婦女美貌而無見識, 如同 金環帶在豬鼻上。
22A golden ring in a swine’s snout, a woman fair and foolish.
23義人的心願盡得好處; 惡人的指望致干忿怒。
23The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.
24有施散的,卻更增添; 有吝惜過度的,反致窮乏。
24Some distribute their own goods, and grow richer: others take away what is not their own, and are always in want.
25好施捨的,必得豐裕; 滋潤人的,必得滋潤。
25The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.
26屯糧不賣的,民必咒詛他; 情願出賣的,人必為他祝福。
26He that hideth up corn, shall be cursed among the people: but a blessing upon the head of them that sell.
27懇切求善的,就求得恩惠; 惟獨求惡的,惡必臨到他身。
27Well doth he rise early who seeketh good things; but he that seeketh after evil things shall be oppressed by them.
28倚仗自己財物的,必跌倒; 義人必發旺,如青葉。
28He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the just shall spring up as a green leaf.
29擾害己家的,必承受清風; 愚昧人必作慧心人的僕人。
29He that troubleth his own house, shall inherit the winds: and the fool shall serve the wise.
30義人所結的果子就是生命樹; 有智慧的,必能得人。
30The fruit of the just man is a tree of life: and he that gaineth souls, is wise.
31看哪,義人在世尚且受報, 何況惡人和罪人呢?
31If the just man receive in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner.
