箴言 7
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
King James Version with Apocrypha
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 lay up my commandments with thee.
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; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
3繫在你指頭上， 刻在你心版上。
3Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
4對智慧說：你是我的姊妹， 稱呼聰明為你的親人，
4Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
5她就保你遠離淫婦， 遠離說諂媚話的外女。
5That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
6我曾在我房屋的窗戶內， 從我窗欞之間往外觀看：
6¶ For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
7見愚蒙人內，少年人中， 分明有一個無知的少年人，
7And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
8從街上經過，走近淫婦的巷口， 直往通她家的路去，
8Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
9在黃昏，或晚上， 或半夜，或黑暗之中。
9In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark 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。
10And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
11這婦人喧嚷，不守約束， 在家裏停不住腳，
11(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
12有時在街市上，有時在寬闊處， 或在各巷口蹲伏，
12Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
13拉住那少年人，與他親嘴， 臉無羞恥對他說：
13So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
14平安祭在我這裏， 今日才還了我所許的願。
14I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
15因此，我出來迎接你， 懇切求見你的面，恰巧遇見了你。
15Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
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 of tapestry, with carved works , with fine linen of Egypt.
17我又用沒藥、沉香、桂皮 薰了我的榻。
17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and 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 until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
19因為我丈夫不在家，出門行遠路；
19For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:
20他手拿銀囊，必到月望才回家。
20He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
21淫婦用許多巧言誘他隨從， 用諂媚的嘴逼他同行。
21With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced 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 goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
23直等箭穿他的肝； 如同雀鳥急入網羅，卻不知是自喪己命。
23Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
24眾子啊，現在要聽從我， 留心聽我口中的話。
24¶ Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, 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。
25Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in 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 hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
27她的家是在陰間之路， 下到死亡之宮。
27Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
