箴言
第2章
|
|
1 My son,1121 if518 you will receive3947 my words,561 and hide6845 my commandments4687 with you;
|
1 我兒，你若領受我的言語，存記我的命令，
|
|
2 So that you incline7181 your ear241 to wisdom,2451 and apply5186 your heart3820 to understanding;8394
|
2 側耳聽智慧，專心求聰明，
|
|
3 Yes,3588 if518 you cry7121 after knowledge,998 and lift5414 up your voice6963 for understanding;8394
|
3 呼求知識［knowledge］，揚聲求聰明，
|
|
4 If518 you seek1245 her as silver,3701 and search2664 for her as for hid4301 treasures;4301
|
4 尋找她，如尋找銀子，搜求她，如搜求隱藏的珍寶，
|
|
5 Then227 shall you understand995 the fear3374 of the LORD,3068 and find4672 the knowledge1847 of God.430
|
5 你就明白敬畏耶和華，得以認識神。
|
|
6 For the LORD3068 gives5414 wisdom:2451 out of his mouth6310 comes knowledge1847 and understanding.8394
|
6 因為，耶和華賜人智慧；知識和聰明都由他口而出。
|
|
7 He lays6845 up sound8454 wisdom8454 for the righteous:3477 he is a buckler4043 to them that walk1980 uprightly.8537
|
7 他給義人［righteous］存留真智慧；他乃行事正直之人的擋牌［he is abuckler to them that walk uprightly］。
|
|
8 He keeps5341 the paths734 of judgment,4941 and preserves8104 the way1870 of his saints.2623
|
8 他［He］要保守公平人的路，護庇他聖民［his saints］的道。
|
|
9 Then227 shall you understand995 righteousness,6664 and judgment,4941 and equity;4339 yes, every3605 good2896 path.4570
|
9 你也必明白公義［righteousness］、公平、公正［equity］、一切的善道。
|
|
10 When3588 wisdom2451 enters935 into your heart,3820 and knowledge1847 is pleasant5276 to your soul;5315
|
10 智慧必入你心；你的魂［soul］要以知識為美。
|
|
11 Discretion4209 shall preserve8104 you, understanding8394 shall keep5341 you:
|
11 謀略必護衛你；聰明必保守你，
|
|
12 To deliver5337 you from the way1870 of the evil7451 man,376 from the man that speaks1696 fraudulent8419 things;
|
12 要救你脫離惡人的道［way of the evil man］，脫離說乖謬話的人。
|
|
13 Who leave5800 the paths734 of uprightness,3476 to walk3212 in the ways1870 of darkness;2822
|
13 那等人捨棄正直的路，行走黑暗的道，
|
|
14 Who rejoice8056 to do6213 evil,7451 and delight1523 in the frowardness8419 of the wicked;7451
|
14 歡喜作惡，喜愛惡人的乖僻，
|
|
15 Whose834 ways734 are crooked,6141 and they fraudulent3868 in their paths:4570
|
15 在他們的道中彎曲，在他們的路上偏僻。
|
|
16 To deliver5337 you from the strange2114 woman,802 even from the stranger5237 which flatters2505 with her words;561
|
16 智慧要救你脫離外女［strange woman］，就是那以說話奉承人的外人［stranger which flattereth with her words］。
|
|
17 Which forsakes5800 the guide441 of her youth,5271 and forgets7913 the covenant1285 of her God.430
|
17 她離棄幼年的引導［guide］，忘了神的盟約。
|
|
18 For her house1004 inclines7743 to death,4194 and her paths4570 to the dead.7496
|
18 她的家陷入死地；她的路偏向死人［dead］。
|
|
19 None3808 that go935 to her return7725 again,7725 neither take5381 they hold5381 of the paths734 of life.2416
|
19 凡到她那裏去的，不得轉回，也得不著生命的路。
|
|
20 That you may walk3212 in the way1870 of good2896 men, and keep8104 the paths734 of the righteous.6662
|
20 智慧必使你行善人的道，守義人的路。
|
|
21 For the upright3477 shall dwell7931 in the land,776 and the perfect8549 shall remain3498 in it.
|
21 正直人必在世上居住；完全人必在地上存留。
|
|
22 But the wicked7563 shall be cut3772 off from the earth,776 and the transgressors898 shall be rooted5255 out of it.
|
22 唯有惡人必然剪除；犯法的［transgressors］，必然拔出。
