箴言 6
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1我兒，你若為朋友作保， 替外人擊掌，
1My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have struck hands in pledge with a stranger,
2你就被口中的話語纏住， 被嘴裏的言語捉住。
2if you have been trapped by the words of your lips, ensnared by the words of your mouth,
3我兒，你既落在朋友手中， 就當這樣行才可救自己： 你要自卑，去懇求你的朋友。
3then do this, my son, to free yourself, for you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands: Go, humble yourself, and press your plea with your neighbor.
4不要容你的眼睛睡覺； 不要容你的眼皮打盹。
4Allow no sleep to your eyes or slumber to your eyelids.
5要救自己，如鹿脫離 獵戶的 手， 如鳥脫離捕鳥人的手。
5Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler.
6懶惰人哪， 你去察看螞蟻的動作就可得智慧。
6Walk in the manner of the ant, O slacker; observe its ways and become wise.
7螞蟻沒有元帥， 沒有官長，沒有君王，
7Without a commander, without an overseer or ruler,
8尚且在夏天預備食物， 在收割時聚斂糧食。
8it prepares its provisions in summer; it gathers its food at harvest.
9懶惰人哪，你要睡到幾時呢？ 你何時睡醒呢？
9How long will you lie there, O slacker? When will you get up from your sleep?
10再睡片時，打盹片時， 抱着手躺臥片時，
10A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
11你的貧窮就必如強盜速來， 你的缺乏彷彿拿兵器的人來到。
11and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and need like a bandit.
12無賴的惡徒， 行動就用乖僻的口，
12A worthless person, a wicked man, walks with a perverse mouth,
13用眼傳神， 用腳示意， 用指點劃，
13winking his eyes, speaking with his feet, and pointing with his fingers.
14心中乖僻， 常設惡謀， 布散紛爭。
14With deceit in his heart he devises evil; he continually sows discord.
15所以，災難必忽然臨到他身； 他必頃刻敗壞，無法可治。
15Therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly; in an instant he will be shattered beyond recovery.
16耶和華所恨惡的有六樣， 連他心所憎惡的共有七樣：
16There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to Him:
17就是高傲的眼， 撒謊的舌， 流無辜人血的手，
17haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18圖謀惡計的心， 飛跑行惡的腳，
18a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that run swiftly to evil,
19吐謊言的假見證， 並弟兄中布散紛爭的人。
19a false witness who gives false testimony, and one who stirs up discord among brothers.
20我兒，要謹守你父親的誡命； 不可離棄你母親的法則，
20My son, keep your father’s commandment, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
21要常繫在你心上， 掛在你項上。
21Bind them always upon your heart; tie them around your neck.
22你行走，它必引導你； 你躺臥，它必保守你； 你睡醒，它必與你談論。
22When you walk, they will guide you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak to you.
23因為誡命是燈，法則是光， 訓誨的責備是生命的道，
23For this commandment is a lamp, this teaching is a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way to life,
24能保你遠離惡婦， 遠離外女諂媚的舌頭。
24to keep you from the evil woman, from the smooth tongue of the adulteress.
25你心中不要戀慕她的美色， 也不要被她眼皮勾引。
25Do not lust in your heart for her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.
26因為，妓女 能使人 只剩一塊餅； 淫婦獵取人寶貴的生命。
26For the levy of the prostitute is poverty, and the adulteress preys upon your very life.
27人若懷裏搋火， 衣服豈能不燒呢？
27Can a man embrace fire and his clothes not be burned?
28人若在火炭上走， 腳豈能不燙呢？
28Can a man walk on hot coals without scorching his feet?
29親近鄰舍之妻的，也是如此； 凡挨近她的，不免受罰。
29So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.
30賊因飢餓偷竊充飢， 人不藐視他，
30Men do not despise the thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger.
31若被找着，他必賠還七倍， 必將家中所有的盡都償還。
31Yet if caught, he must pay sevenfold; he must give up all the wealth of his house.
32與婦人行淫的，便是無知； 行這事的，必喪掉生命。
32He who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys himself.
33他必受傷損，必被凌辱； 他的羞恥不得塗抹。
33Wounds and dishonor will befall him, and his reproach will never be wiped away.
34因為人的嫉恨成了烈怒， 報仇的時候決不留情。
34For jealousy enrages a husband, and he will show no mercy in the day of vengeance.
35甚麼贖價，他都不顧； 你雖送許多禮物，他也不肯干休。
35He will not be appeased by any ransom, or persuaded by lavish gifts.
