箴言

第15章

1 其言也溫、可以息怒、其辭也厲、足以激變。

2 智者工語言、愚者吐妄論。

3 耶和華鑒察善惡、無不普遍。

4 良言猶生命之樹、厲語猶毀物之風。

5 藐父訓者愚、聽格言者智。

6 義者之室家、多藏貨財、惡者之物產、多致殷憂。

7 智者所播、惟以明哲、愚者則反是。

8 惡人之祭、爲耶和華所疾、善人之祈、爲主所悅。

9 耶和華惡惡好善。

10 違道義者、必受刑罰、惡譴責者、必致死亡。

11 陰司暗府、尚爲耶和華鑒察、况斯世之人心乎。

12 侮慢之徒、見責己者惡之、而不就正於哲人。

13 心樂則愉愉、心憂則戚戚。

14 哲人日進高明、愚人日就污下。

15 受患難者、終日懷憂、有懽心者、恒享宴樂。

16 富而多慮、不如寡得而寅畏耶和華。

17 與仇敵而食肥犢、不如對良朋而茹菜蔬。

18 悻悻者必起爭端、有容者可止凌競。

19 怠者困於蒺藜、義者行於坦途。

20 智子悅親、愚子欺母。

21 無智者自安愚昧、明哲者行不由徑。

22 無良謀、事乃敗、集衆議、事以成。

23 言而有物、則自信也深、時然後言、則益人也大。

24 智者求生而上達、不下陷於陰府。

25 惟我耶和華覆驕人之室、安嫠婦之界。

26 惡念彼所深誅、良言彼所甚喜。

27 貪貨利者無家室之安、惡苞苴者得生命之樂。

28 善人必先圖維、然後應對、惡人啓口妄言、毫無思慮。

29 耶和華遐棄惡人、惟聽義人之祈。

30 目有光明、中心悅懌、耳聞嘉音、一身安豫。

31 欲聽生命之言、必與智者偕居。

32 棄道者輕生命、聽勸者得聰明。

33 寅畏耶和華者、先必撝謙、後獲榮寵、斯智者之訓誨也。
