箴言 19
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1行為純正的貧窮人 勝過乖謬愚妄的 富足 人。
1Better a poor man who walks with integrity than a fool whose lips are perverse.
2心無知識的，乃為不善； 腳步急快的，難免犯罪。
2Even zeal is no good without knowledge, and he who hurries his footsteps misses the mark.
3人的愚昧傾敗他的道； 他的心也抱怨耶和華。
3A man’s own folly subverts his way, yet his heart rages against the LORD.
4財物使朋友增多； 但窮人朋友遠離。
4Wealth attracts many friends, but a poor man is deserted by his friend.

5A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who utters lies will not escape.
6好施散的，有多人求他的恩情； 愛送禮的，人都為他的朋友。
6Many seek the favor of the prince, and everyone is a friend of the gift giver.
7貧窮人，弟兄都恨他； 何況他的朋友，更遠離他！ 他用言語追隨，他們卻走了。
7All the brothers of a poor man hate him— how much more do his friends avoid him! He may pursue them with pleading, but they are nowhere to be found.
8得着智慧的，愛惜生命； 保守聰明的，必得好處。
8He who acquires wisdom loves himself; one who safeguards understanding will find success.
9作假見證的，不免受罰； 吐出謊言的，也必滅亡。
9A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who pours out lies will perish.
10愚昧人宴樂度日是不合宜的； 何況僕人管轄王子呢？
10Luxury is unseemly for a fool— how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!
11人有見識就不輕易發怒； 寬恕人的過失便是自己的榮耀。
11A man’s insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense.
12王的忿怒好像獅子吼叫； 他的恩典卻如草上的甘露。
12A king’s rage is like the roar of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.
13愚昧的兒子是父親的禍患； 妻子的爭吵 如雨 連連滴漏。
13A foolish son is his father’s ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping.

29Judgments are prepared for mockers, and beatings for the backs of fools.
