箴言 13
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1智慧子 聽 父親的教訓； 褻慢人不聽責備。
1A wise son is instructed of his father; but a scorner heareth not rebuke.
2人因口所結的果子，必享美福； 奸詐人 必遭 強暴。
2A man shall eat good from the fruit of his mouth; but the desire of the faithless is violence.
3謹守口的，得保生命； 大張嘴的，必致敗亡。
3He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life; but for him that openeth wide his lips there shall be ruin.
4懶惰人羨慕，卻無所得； 殷勤人必得豐裕。
4The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing; but the soul of the diligent shall be abundantly gratified.
5義人恨惡謊言； 惡人有臭名，且致慚愧。
5A righteous man hateth lying; but a wicked man behaveth vilely and shamefully.
6行為正直的，有公義保守； 犯罪的，被邪惡傾覆。
6Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
7假作富足的，卻一無所有； 裝作窮乏的，卻廣有財物。
7There is that pretendeth himself rich, yet hath nothing; there is that pretendeth himself poor, yet hath great wealth.
8人的資財是他生命的贖價； 窮乏人卻聽不見威嚇的話。
8The ransom of a man's life are his riches; but the poor heareth no threatening.
9義人的光明亮； 惡人的燈要熄滅。
9The light of the righteous rejoiceth; but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10驕傲只啟爭競； 聽勸言的，卻有智慧。
10By pride cometh only contention; but with the well-advised is wisdom.
11不勞而得之財必然消耗； 勤勞積蓄的，必見加增。
11Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished; but he that gathereth little by little shall increase.
12所盼望的遲延未得，令人心憂； 所願意的臨到，卻是生命樹。
12Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
13藐視訓言的，自取滅亡； 敬畏誡命的，必得善報。
13Whoso despiseth the word shall suffer thereby; but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
14智慧人的法則是生命的泉源， 可以使人離開死亡的網羅。
14The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
15美好的聰明使人蒙恩； 奸詐人的道路崎嶇難行。
15Good understanding giveth grace; but the way of the faithless is harsh.
16凡通達人都憑知識行事； 愚昧人張揚自己的愚昧。
16Every prudent man dealeth with forethought; but a fool unfoldeth folly.
17奸惡的使者必陷在禍患裏； 忠信的使臣乃醫人的良藥。
17A wicked messenger falleth into evil; but a faithful ambassador is health.
18棄絕管教的， 必致 貧受辱； 領受責備的，必得尊榮。
18Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction; but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.
19所欲的成就，心覺甘甜； 遠離惡事，為愚昧人所憎惡。
19The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul; and it is an abomination to fools to depart from evil.
20與智慧人同行的，必得智慧； 和愚昧人作伴的，必受虧損。
20He that walketh with wise men shall be wise; but the companion of fools shall smart for it.
21禍患追趕罪人； 義人必得善報。
21Evil pursueth sinners; but to the righteous good shall be repaid.
22善人給子孫遺留產業； 罪人為義人積存資財。

23Much food is in the tillage of the poor; but there is that is swept away by want of righteousness.
24不忍用杖打兒子的，是恨惡他； 疼愛兒子的，隨時管教。
24He that spareth his rod hateth his son; but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
25義人吃得飽足； 惡人肚腹缺糧。
25The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his desire; but the belly of the wicked shall want.
