箴言-Proverbs 第 9 章

9:1智慧建造房屋，鑿出七根柱子；
Wisdom has built her house; She has hewn out her seven pillars;
9:2她宰牲調酒，設擺筵席；
She has slaughtered her beasts; She has mingled her wine; She has also set her table;
9:3打發使女出去，自己在城中至高處呼叫，說，
She has sent forth her maidens; She calls from the highest places of the city:
9:4誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裏來。又對那無知的人說，
Whoever is simple, let him turn in here; As for him who lacks sense, she says to him,
9:5你們來，吃我的餅，喝我調和的酒；
Come, eat of my bread, And drink of the wine which I have mingled.
9:6你們要舍棄愚蒙，就得存活，並要走聰明的道路。
Forsake foolishness, and live, And walk in the way of understanding.
9:7指正褻慢人的，必受羞辱；責備惡人的，必遭玷汙。
He who corrects a scorner gets dishonor for himself, And he who reproves a wicked man blemishes himself.
9:8不要責備褻慢人，免得他恨你；要責備智慧人，他必愛你。
Do not reprove a scorner, lest he hate you; Reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
9:9指教智慧人，他就越發有智慧；指示義人，他就增長學識。
Impart something to a wise man, and he will become wiser still; Teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
9:10敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端，認識至聖者便是聰明。
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
9:11你藉著我，日子必增多，一生的年歲也必加添。
For by me your days will be multiplied, And the years of your life will be increased.
9:12你若有智慧，是與自己有益；你若褻慢，就必獨自擔當後果。
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; And if you are scornful, you alone will bear it.
9:13愚昧婦人喧嚷；她是愚蒙，一無所知。
The woman Foolishness is rowdy; She is simple and knows nothing.
9:14她坐在自己的家門口，坐在城中高處的座位上，
And she sits at the door of her house, On a seat in the heights of the city,
9:15呼叫過路的，就是直行其道的人，說，
To call to those who pass by, Who go straight on their ways:
9:16誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裏來。
Whoever is simple, let him turn in here; And as for him who lacks sense, she says to him,
9:17又對那無知的人說，偷來的水是甜的，暗得的餅是好的。
Stolen waters are sweet, And bread gotten in secret is pleasant.
9:18人卻不知有陰魂在她那裏，她的客人在陰間的深處。
But he does not know that the dead are there, That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
