箴言第28章 |
|
1 惡者雖無追襲，而遁逃恐後，義者之膽，其大若獅。 |
|
2 國亂則主迭更，民良則邦永治。 |
|
3 以貧虐貧，若行潦忽決，盡淹所有。 |
|
4 違法者譽惡，守法者敵惡。 |
|
5 作惡之人，不明至道，崇事耶和華者，能悉萬理， |
|
6 富而悖理，不如貧而善道。 |
|
7 守律法者，有智之子，從惡黨者，貽父之羞。 |
|
8 貸人以金，重權子母，以益其財者，所積之金，必爲濟貧之人所得。 |
|
9 不聽律法者卽祈於上，亦爲上帝所疾。 |
|
10 使義者迷途，必陷罪戾，爲善者則納福。 |
|
11 富人自視爲智，貧者明慧，必審其詳。 |
|
12 義人在位，萬事彰明，惡者秉鈞，庶民隱遯。 |
|
13 自匿其非，不得納福，任過而改，可獲矜憫， |
|
14 恒畏耶和華者，可受綏祉，剛愎厥心，必有災害。 |
|
15 暴君虐貧民，若咆哮之獅，饑餓之熊。 |
|
16 無智之君，多行暴虐，能絶嗜欲，可得永生。 |
|
17 殺人者必有懼心，恐見執而逃，入墓乃已。 |
|
18 直躬而行者，可得拯救，所從邪曲者，猝然敗亡。 |
|
19 勸耕耘者，得果腹，從虛誕者，致貧乏。 |
|
20 誠愨之人，永膺多福，急圖富有，必召禍災。 |
|
21 偏視者不公，饋以一方之餅，因之枉法。 |
|
22 貪婪之人，惟圖富有，不知貧乏將至。 |
|
23 以善責人，終得恩寵，較諂諛尤多。 |
|
24 竊父母之財，自言無罪者，與盜無異。 |
|
25 人恃驕泰，多啟爭端，惟恃耶和華，無不亨通。 |
|
26 恃其能者愚昧，慎所行者得救。 |
|
27 濟貧人，則不致缺乏，佯爲不見者，多遭詛咒。 |
|
28 惡人居顯要，庶民隱遯，惡人敗亡，賢人乃出。 |
ProverbsChapter 28 |
|
1 THE wicked flee when no man pursues them; but the righteous are confident as a lion. |
|
2 Because of the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof; but by righteous men who know justice the stability thereof shall be prolonged. |
|
3 A poor man who oppresses the poor is like a sweeping rain which is of no benefit. |
|
4 Those who forsake the law glory in wickedness; but those who keep the law receive strength. |
|
5 Evil men do not understand justice; but those who seek the LORD understand all good things. |
|
6 Better is the poor man walking in his uprightness than a rich man whose ways are perverse. |
|
7 He who keeps the law is a wise son; but he who is engaged in vanity shames his father. |
|
8 He who increases his wealth by usury and unjust means shall leave it for him who is kind to the poor. |
|
9 He who closes his ears from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination. |
|
10 He who causes the righteous to go astray in an evil path shall fall himself into the pit; but the upright shall inherit good things. |
|
11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes; but a poor man of understanding will reprove him. |
|
12 When righteous men are strong, there is a great glory; but when the wicked rise to power, the glory diminishes. |
|
13 He who hides his transgression shall not prosper; but he who confesses his sins and forsakes them, God will have mercy upon him. |
|
14 Blessed is the man who is reverent always; but he who hardens his heart shall fall into mischief. |
|
15 As a roaring lion and a raging bear, so is a wicked ruler over the poor. |
|
16 A ruler who lacks understanding is also a great oppressor; but he who hates deceit shall prolong his life. |
|
17 A man who is engaged in shedding of blood shall flee even to the jailer, and no one shall help him. |
|
18 He who walks uprightly shall be saved; but he who is perverse in his ways shall fall into a pit. |
|
19 He who tills the land shall have abundance of bread; but he who follows after vain pursuits shall have plenty of poverty. |
|
20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings; but an evil man shall not be innocent. |
|
21 A man who shows partiality is not good; for a piece of bread a man will become a traitor. |
|
22 He who hastens to be rich has an evil eye and considers not that poverty shall come upon him. |
|
23 He who rebukes a man shall find more favor afterwards than he who flatters with his tongue. |
|
24 He who robs his father or his mother and says, It is no transgression, the same is the companion of a wicked man. |
|
25 A greedy man stirs up strife; but he who puts his trust in the LORD shall be enriched. |
|
26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool; but he who walks with integrity will be delivered. |
|
27 He who gives to the poor shall not lack; but he who turns his eyes away from the needy shall have many a curse. |
|
28 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves; but when they perish, the righteous increase. |
