Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1A wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish will pull down with her hands that also which is built.
1智慧婦人建立家室； 愚妄婦人親手拆毀。
2He that walketh in the right way, and feareth God, Cis despised by him that goeth by an infamous way.
2行動正直的，敬畏耶和華； 行事乖僻的，卻藐視他。
3In the mouth of a fool is the rod of pride: but the lips of the wise preserve them.
3愚妄人口中驕傲，如杖責打己身； 智慧人的嘴必保守自己。
4Where there are no oxen, the crib is empty: but where there is much corn, there the strength of the ox is manifest.
4家裏無牛，槽頭乾淨； 土產加多乃憑牛力。
5A faithful witness will not lie: but a deceitful witness uttereth a lie.
5誠實見證人不說謊話； 假見證人吐出謊言。
6A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: the learning of the wise is easy.
6褻慢人尋智慧，卻尋不着； 聰明人易得知識。
7Go against a foolish man, and he knoweth not the lips of prudence.
7到愚昧人面前， 不見他嘴中有知識。
8The wisdom of a. discreet man is to understand his way: and the imprudence of fools erreth.
8通達人的智慧在乎明白己道； 愚昧人的愚妄乃是詭詐。
9A fool will laugh at sin, but among the just grace shall abide.
9愚妄人犯罪，以為戲耍； 正直人互相喜悅。
10The heart that knoweth the bitterness of his own soul, in his joy the stranger shall not intermeddle.
10心中的苦楚，自己知道； 心裏的喜樂，外人無干。
11The house of the wicked shall be destroyed: but the tabernacles of the just shall flourish.
11奸惡人的房屋必傾倒； 正直人的帳棚必興盛。
12There is a way which seemeth just to a man: but the ends thereof lead to death.
12有一條路，人以為正， 至終成為死亡之路。
13Laughter shall be mingled with sorrow, and mourning taketh hold of the end of joy.
13人在喜笑中，心也憂愁； 快樂至極就生愁苦。
14A fool shall be filled with his own ways, and the good man shall be above him.
14心中背道的，必滿得自己的結果； 善人必從自己 的行為得以知足 。
15The innocent believeth every word: the discreet man considereth his steps. No good shall come to the deceitful son: but the wise servant shall prosper in his dealings, and his way shall be made straight.
15愚蒙人是話都信； 通達人步步謹慎。
16A wise man feareth and declineth from evil: the fool leapeth over and is confident.
16智慧人懼怕，就遠離惡事； 愚妄人卻狂傲自恃。
17The impatient man shall work folly: and the crafty man is hateful.
17輕易發怒的，行事愚妄； 設立詭計的，被人恨惡。
18The childish shall possess folly, and the prudent, shall look for knowledge.
18愚蒙人得愚昧為產業； 通達人得知識為冠冕。
19The evil shall fall down before the good: and the wicked before the gates of the just.
19壞人俯伏在善人面前； 惡人俯伏在義人門口。
20The poor man shall be hateful even to his own neighbour: but the friends of the rich are many.
20貧窮人連鄰舍也恨他； 富足人朋友最多。
21He that despiseth his neighbour, sinneth: but he that sheweth mercy to the poor, shall be blessed. He that believeth in the Lord, loveth mercy.
21藐視鄰舍的，這人有罪； 憐憫貧窮的，這人有福。
22They err that work evil: but mercy and truth prepare good things.
22謀惡的，豈非走入迷途嗎？ 謀善的， 必得 慈愛和誠實。
23In much work there shall be abundance: but where there are many words, there is oftentimes want.
23諸般勤勞都有益處； 嘴上多言乃致窮乏。
24The crown of the wise is their riches: the folly of fools, imprudence.
24智慧人的財為自己的冠冕； 愚妄人的愚昧終是愚昧。
25A faithful witness delivereth souls: and the double dealer uttereth lies.
25作真見證的，救人性命； 吐出謊言的， 施行 詭詐。
26In the fear of the Lord is confidence of strength, and there shall be hope for his children.
26敬畏耶和華的，大有倚靠； 他的兒女也有避難所。
27The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to decline from the ruin of death.
27敬畏耶和華就是生命的泉源， 可以使人離開死亡的網羅。
28In the multitude of people is the dignity of the king: and in the small number of people the dishonour of the prince.
28帝王榮耀在乎民多； 君王衰敗在乎民少。
29He that is patient, is governed with much wisdom: but he that is impatient, exalteth his folly.
29不輕易發怒的，大有聰明； 性情暴躁的，大顯愚妄。
30Soundness of heart is the life of the flesh: but envy is the rottenness of the bones.
30心中安靜是肉體的生命； 嫉妒是骨中的朽爛。
31He that oppresseth the poor, upbraideth his Maker: but he that hath pity on the poor, honoureth him.
31欺壓貧寒的，是辱沒造他的主； 憐憫窮乏的，乃是尊敬主。
32The wicked man shall be driven out in his wickedness: but the just hath hope in his death.
32惡人在所行的惡上必被推倒； 義人臨死，有所投靠。
33In the heart of the prudent resteth wisdom, and it shall instruct all the ignorant.
33智慧存在聰明人心中； 愚昧人心裏所存的，顯而易見。
34Justice exalteth a nation: but sin maketh nations miserable.
34公義使邦國高舉； 罪惡是人民的羞辱。
35A wise servant is acceptable to the king: he that is good for nothing shall feel his anger.
35智慧的臣子蒙王恩惠； 貽羞的僕人遭其震怒。
