Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1A mild answer breaketh wrath: but a harsh word stirreth up fury.
1回答柔和，使怒消退； 言語暴戾，觸動怒氣。
2The tongue of the wise adorneth knowledge: but the mouth of fools bubbleth out folly.
2智慧人的舌善發知識； 愚昧人的口吐出愚昧。
3The eyes of the Lord in every place behold the good and the evil.
3耶和華的眼目無處不在； 惡人善人，他都鑒察。
4A peaceable tongue is a tree of life: but that which is immoderate, shall crush the spirit.
4溫良的舌是生命樹； 乖謬的嘴使人心碎。
5A fool laugheth at the instruction of his father: but he that regardeth reproofs shall become prudent. In abundant justice there is the greatest strength: but the devices of the wicked shall be rooted out.
5愚妄人藐視父親的管教； 領受責備的，得着見識。
6The house of the just is very much strength: and in the fruits of the wicked is trouble.
6義人家中多有財寶； 惡人得利反受擾害。
7The lips of the wise shall disperse knowledge: the heart of fools shall be unlike.
7智慧人的嘴播揚知識； 愚昧人的心並不如此。
8The victims of the wicked are abominable to the Lord: the vows of the just are acceptable.
8惡人獻祭，為耶和華所憎惡； 正直人祈禱，為他所喜悅。
9The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord: he that followeth justice is beloved by him.
9惡人的道路，為耶和華所憎惡； 追求公義的，為他所喜愛。
10Instruction is grievous to him that forsaketh the way of life: he that hateth reproof shall die.
10捨棄正路的，必受嚴刑； 恨惡責備的，必致死亡。
11Hell and destruction are before the Lord: how much more the hearts of the children of men?
11陰間和滅亡尚在耶和華眼前， 何況世人的心呢？
12A corrupt man loveth not one that reproveth him: nor will he go to the wise.
12褻慢人不愛受責備； 他也不就近智慧人。
13A glad heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by grief of mind the spirit is cast down.
13心中喜樂，面帶笑容； 心裏憂愁，靈被損傷。
14The heart of the wise seeketh instruction: and the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.
14聰明人心求知識； 愚昧人口吃愚昧。
15All the days of the poor are evil: a secure mind is like a continual feast.
15困苦人的日子都是愁苦； 心中歡暢的，常享豐筵。
16Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures without content,
16少有財寶，敬畏耶和華， 強如多有財寶，煩亂不安。
17It is better to be invited to herbs with love, than to a fatted calf with hatred.
17吃素菜，彼此相愛， 強如吃肥牛，彼此相恨。
18A passionate man stirreth up strifes: he that is patient appeaseth those that are stirred up.
18暴怒的人挑啟爭端； 忍怒的人止息紛爭。
19The way of the slothful is as a hedge of thorns; the way of the just is without offence.
19懶惰人的道像荊棘的籬笆； 正直人的路是平坦的大道。
20A wise son maketh a father joyful: but the foolish man despiseth his mother.
20智慧子使父親喜樂； 愚昧人藐視母親。
21Folly is joy to the fool: and the wise man maketh straight his steps.
21無知的人以愚妄為樂； 聰明的人按正直而行。
22Designs are brought to nothing where there is no counsel: but where there are many counsellors, they are established.
22不先商議，所謀無效； 謀士眾多，所謀乃成。
23A man rejoiceth in the sentence of his mouth: and a word in due time is best.
23口善應對，自覺喜樂； 話合其時，何等美好。
24The path of life is above for the wise, that he may decline from the lowest hell.
24智慧人從生命的道上升， 使他遠離在下的陰間。
25The Lord will destroy the house of the proud: and will strengthen the borders of the widow.
25耶和華必拆毀驕傲人的家， 卻要立定寡婦的地界。
26Evil thoughts are an abomination to the Lord: and pure words most beautiful shall be confirmed by him.
26惡謀為耶和華所憎惡； 良言乃為純淨。
27He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house: but he that hateth bribes shall live. By mercy and faith sins are purged away: and by the fear of the Lord every one declineth from evil.
27貪戀財利的，擾害己家； 恨惡賄賂的，必得存活。
28The mind of the just studieth obedience: the mouth of the wicked over floweth with evils.
28義人的心，思量如何回答； 惡人的口吐出惡言。
29The Lord is far from the wicked: and he will hear the prayers of the just.
29耶和華遠離惡人， 卻聽義人的禱告。
30The light of the eyes rejoiceth the soul: a good name maketh the bones fat.
30眼有光，使心喜樂； 好信息，使骨滋潤。
31The ear that heareth the reproofs of life, shall abide in the midst of the wise.
31聽從生命責備的， 必常在智慧人中。
32He that rejecteth instruction, despiseth his own soul: but he that yieldeth to reproof possesseth understanding.
32棄絕管教的，輕看自己的生命； 聽從責備的，卻得智慧。
33The fear of the Lord is the lesson of wisdom: and humility goeth before glory.
33敬畏耶和華是智慧的訓誨； 尊榮以前，必有謙卑。
