箴言 7
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1我兒，你要遵守我的言語， 將我的命令存記在心。
1My son, keep my words and treasure my commandments within you.
2遵守我的命令就得存活； 保守我的法則， 好像保守眼中的瞳人，
2Keep my commandments and live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye.
3繫在你指頭上， 刻在你心版上。
3Tie them to your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart.
4對智慧說：你是我的姊妹， 稱呼聰明為你的親人，
4Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,” and call understanding your kinsman,
5她就保你遠離淫婦， 遠離說諂媚話的外女。
5that they may keep you from the adulteress, from the stranger with seductive words.
6我曾在我房屋的窗戶內， 從我窗欞之間往外觀看：
6For at the window of my house I looked through the lattice.
7見愚蒙人內，少年人中， 分明有一個無知的少年人，
7I saw among the simple, I noticed among the youths, a young man lacking judgment,
8從街上經過，走近淫婦的巷口， 直往通她家的路去，
8crossing the street near her corner, strolling down the road to her house,
9在黃昏，或晚上， 或半夜，或黑暗之中。
9at twilight, as the day was fading into the dark of the night.
10看哪，有一個婦人來迎接他， 是妓女的打扮，有詭詐的心思。
10Then a woman came out to meet him, with the attire of a harlot and cunning of heart.
11這婦人喧嚷，不守約束， 在家裏停不住腳，
11She is loud and defiant; her feet do not remain at home.
12有時在街市上，有時在寬闊處， 或在各巷口蹲伏，
12Now in the street, now in the squares, she lurks at every corner.
13拉住那少年人，與他親嘴， 臉無羞恥對他說：
13She seizes him and kisses him; she brazenly says to him:
14平安祭在我這裏， 今日才還了我所許的願。
14“I have made my peace offerings; today I have paid my vows.
15因此，我出來迎接你， 懇切求見你的面，恰巧遇見了你。
15So I came out to meet you; I sought you, and I have found you.
16我已經用繡花毯子 和 埃及 線織的花紋布鋪了我的床。
16I have decked my bed with coverings, with colored linen from Egypt.
17我又用沒藥、沉香、桂皮 薰了我的榻。
17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, with aloes, and with cinnamon.
18你來，我們可以飽享愛情，直到早晨； 我們可以彼此親愛歡樂。
18Come, let us take our fill of love till morning. Let us delight in loving caresses!
19因為我丈夫不在家，出門行遠路；
19For my husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey.
20他手拿銀囊，必到月望才回家。
20He took with him a bag of money and will not return till the moon is full.”
21淫婦用許多巧言誘他隨從， 用諂媚的嘴逼他同行。
21With her great persuasion she entices him; with her flattering lips she lures him.
22少年人立刻跟隨她，好像牛往宰殺之地； 又像愚昧人帶鎖鍊去受刑罰，
22He follows her on impulse, like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer bounding into a trap,
23直等箭穿他的肝； 如同雀鳥急入網羅，卻不知是自喪己命。
23until an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare— not knowing it will cost him his life.
24眾子啊，現在要聽從我， 留心聽我口中的話。
24Now, my sons, listen to me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25你的心不可偏向淫婦的道， 不要入她的迷途。
25Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways; do not stray into her paths.
26因為，被她傷害仆倒的不少； 被她殺戮的而且甚多。
26For she has brought many down to death; her slain are many in number.
27她的家是在陰間之路， 下到死亡之宮。
27Her house is the road to Sheol, descending to the chambers of death.
