< 箴言 10 >
1 所罗门的箴言: 智慧之子使父亲欢乐; 愚昧之子叫母亲担忧。
The Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father, But a foolish son is the grief of his mother.
Treasures of wickedness do not profit; But righteousness delivereth from death.
3 耶和华不使义人受饥饿; 恶人所欲的,他必推开。
The LORD will not suffer the righteous to famish; But he disappointeth the craving of the wicked.
He that worketh with a slack hand becometh poor; But the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5 夏天聚敛的,是智慧之子; 收割时沉睡的,是贻羞之子。
He that gathereth in summer is a wise son; But he that sleepeth in harvest is a son causing shame.
Blessings are upon the head of the just; But the mouth of the wicked concealeth violence.
The memory of the righteous man shall be blessed; But the name of the wicked shall rot.
8 心中智慧的,必受命令; 口里愚妄的,必致倾倒。
He who is wise in heart receiveth precepts; But the foolish talker falleth headlong.
9 行正直路的,步步安稳; 走弯曲道的,必致败露。
He that walketh uprightly walketh securely; But he that perverteth his ways shall be punished.
10 以眼传神的,使人忧患; 口里愚妄的,必致倾倒。
He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow; And a foolish talker falleth headlong.
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life; But the mouth of the wicked concealeth violence.
Hatred stirreth up strife; But love covereth all offences.
Upon the lips of a man of understanding wisdom is found; But a rod is for the back of him that lacketh understanding.
Wise men treasure up knowledge; But the mouth of the foolish is destruction close at hand.
15 富户的财物是他的坚城; 穷人的贫乏是他的败坏。
The rich man's wealth is his strong city; The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
The earnings of the righteous minister to life; The revenues of the wicked, to sin.
17 谨守训诲的,乃在生命的道上; 违弃责备的,便失迷了路。
He that keepeth instruction is in the path of life; But he that refuseth reproof goeth astray.
18 隐藏怨恨的,有说谎的嘴; 口出谗谤的,是愚妄的人。
He that hideth hatred hath lying lips; And he that uttereth slander is a fool.
In the multitude of words there wanteth not offence; But he who restraineth his lips is wise.
The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver; The understanding of the wicked is of little worth.
The lips of the righteous feed many; But fools die through want of wisdom.
It is the blessing of the LORD that maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it.
It is as sport to a fool to do mischief; But a man of understanding hath wisdom.
24 恶人所怕的,必临到他; 义人所愿的,必蒙应允。
The fear of the wicked shall come upon him; But the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
25 暴风一过,恶人归于无有; 义人的根基却是永久。
When the whirlwind passeth by, the wicked is no more; But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, So is the sluggard to them that send him.
27 敬畏耶和华使人日子加多; 但恶人的年岁必被减少。
The fear of the LORD prolongeth life; But the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: But the expectation of the wicked shall come to nothing.
29 耶和华的道是正直人的保障, 却成了作孽人的败坏。
The way of the LORD is a stronghold for the upright, But destruction for those who do iniquity.
The righteous shall never be moved; But the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
The mouth of the righteous man yieldeth wisdom; But the perverse tongue shall be cut off.
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable; But the mouth of the wicked what is perverse.
