箴言

第19章

1 行為純正的貧窮人,勝過嘴裏乖謬的愚妄人[he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool]

2 心無知識的,乃為不善;腳步急快的,難免犯罪。

3 人的愚昧傾敗他的道;他的心也抱怨耶和華。

4 財物使朋友增多;但窮人鄰居[neighour]遠離。

5 作假見證的,必不免受罰;吐出謊言的,終不能逃脫。

6 作君王的[the prince],有多人求他的恩情;愛送禮的,人都為他的朋友。

7 貧窮人,弟兄都恨他;何況他的朋友,豈不更遠離他?他用言語追隨,還是缺欠他們[yet they are wanting to him]

8 得著智慧的,愛惜生命;保守聰明的,必得好處。

9 作假見證的,不免受罰;吐出謊言的,也必滅亡。

10 愚昧人宴樂度日是不合宜的;何況僕人管轄王子呢?

11 人有見識就不輕易發怒;寬恕人的過失便是自己的榮耀。

12 王的忿怒好像獅子吼叫;他的恩典卻如草上的甘露。

13 愚昧的兒子是父親的禍患;妻子的爭吵如雨連連滴漏。

14 房屋錢財是祖宗所遺留的;唯有賢慧的妻是耶和華所賜的。

15 懶惰使人沉睡;懈怠的人必受飢餓。

16 謹守誡命的,保全生命;輕忽己路的,[but][shall]死亡。

17 憐憫貧窮的,就是借給耶和華;他的善行,耶和華必償還。

18 趁有盼望[hope]管教你的兒子,你的心不可因他哭喊就寬容[spare for his crying]

19 暴怒的人必受刑罰;你若救他,必須再救。

20 你要聽勸教,受訓誨,使你終久有智慧。

21 人心多有計謀;唯有耶和華的籌算才能立定。

22 施行仁慈的,令人愛慕;窮人勝過[better]說謊言的。

23 敬畏耶和華的,得著生命;他必恆久知足,不遭禍患。

24 懶惰人將手[hideth][bosom]裏,就是向口撤回,他也不肯。

25 鞭打褻慢人,愚蒙人必受警戒[beware];責備明哲人,他就明白知識。

26 虐待父親、趕出母親的,是貽羞致辱之子。

27 我兒,那使人偏離知識言語的教訓,你不可聽從[Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge]

28 不敬虔的人[ungodly]作見證戲笑公平;惡人的口吞下罪孽。

29 刑罰是為褻慢人預備的;鞭打是為愚昧人的背預備的。

Proverbs

Chapter 19

1 Better2896 is the poor7326 that walks1980 in his integrity,8537 than he that is perverse6141 in his lips,8193 and is a fool.3684

2 Also,1571 that the soul5315 be without3808 knowledge,1847 it is not good;2896 and he that hastens213 with his feet7272 sins.2398

3 The foolishness200 of man120 perverts5557 his way:1870 and his heart3820 frets2196 against5921 the LORD.3068

4 Wealth1952 makes many7227 friends;7453 but the poor1800 is separated6504 from his neighbor.7453

5 A false8267 witness5707 shall not be unpunished,5352 and he that speaks6315 lies3576 shall not escape.4422

6 Many7227 will entreat2470 the favor6440 of the prince:5081 and every3605 man is a friend7453 to him that gives gifts.4976

7 All3605 the brothers251 of the poor7326 do hate8130 him: how637 much637 more do his friends4828 go7368 far7368 from him? he pursues7291 them with words,561 yet they are wanting3808 to him.

8 He that gets7069 wisdom3820 loves157 his own soul:5315 he that keeps8104 understanding8394 shall find4672 good.2896

9 A false8267 witness5707 shall not be unpunished,5352 and he that speaks6315 lies3576 shall perish.6

10 Delight8588 is not seemly5000 for a fool;3684 much637 less for a servant5650 to have rule4910 over princes.8269

11 The discretion7922 of a man120 defers748 his anger;639 and it is his glory8597 to pass5674 over5921 a transgression.6588

12 The king's4428 wrath2197 is as the roaring5099 of a lion;3715 but his favor7522 is as dew2919 on the grass.6212

13 A foolish3684 son1121 is the calamity1942 of his father:1 and the contentions4079 of a wife802 are a continual2956 dropping.1812

14 House1004 and riches1952 are the inheritance5159 of fathers:1 and a prudent7919 wife802 is from the LORD.3068

15 Slothfulness6103 casts5307 into a deep8639 sleep;3462 and an idle7423 soul5315 shall suffer hunger.7456

16 He that keeps8104 the commandment4687 keeps8104 his own soul;5315 but he that despises959 his ways1870 shall die.4191

17 He that has pity2603 on the poor1800 lends3867 to the LORD;3068 and that which he has given1576 will he pay7999 him again.7999

18 Chasten3256 your son1121 while3588 there is hope,8615 and let not your soul5315 spare5375 for his crying.4191

19 A man of great wrath2534 shall suffer5375 punishment:6066 for if518 you deliver5337 him, yet5750 you must do it again.3254

20 Hear8085 counsel,6098 and receive6901 instruction,4148 that you may be wise2449 in your latter319 end.

21 There are many7227 devices4284 in a man's376 heart;3820 nevertheless the counsel6098 of the LORD,3068 that shall stand.6965

22 The desire8378 of a man120 is his kindness:2617 and a poor7326 man is better2896 than a liar.376 3576

23 The fear3374 of the LORD3068 tends to life:2416 and he that has it shall abide3885 satisfied;7649 he shall not be visited6485 with evil.7451

24 A slothful6102 man hides2934 his hand3027 in his bosom,6747 and will not so much1571 as bring7725 it to his mouth6310 again.7725

25 Smite5221 a scorner,3887 and the simple6612 will beware:6191 and reprove3198 one that has understanding,995 and he will understand995 knowledge.1847

26 He that wastes7703 his father,1 and chases1272 away his mother,517 is a son1121 that causes shame,954 and brings2659 reproach.2659

27 Cease,2308 my son,1121 to hear8085 the instruction4148 that causes to err7686 from the words561 of knowledge.1847

28 An ungodly1100 witness5707 scorns3887 judgment:4941 and the mouth6310 of the wicked7563 devours1104 iniquity.205

29 Judgments8201 are prepared3559 for scorners,3887 and stripes4112 for the back1458 of fools.3684
