箴言

第11章

1 詭詐的天平為耶和華所憎惡;公平的法碼,[but]為他所喜悅。

2 驕傲來,羞恥也來;謙遜人卻有智慧。

3 正直人的純正必引導自己;[but]犯法人[transgressors]的乖僻必毀滅自己。

4 發怒的日子資財無益;唯有公義能救人脫離死亡。

5 完全人的義必指引他的路;但惡人必因自己的惡跌倒。

6 正直人的義必拯救自己;唯犯法的[but transgressors],必陷在自己的罪孽中。

7 惡人一死,他的指望必滅絕;不義的人[unjust men]的盼望也必滅沒。

8 義人得脫離患難,有惡人來代替他。

9 偽善的人[hypocrite]用口敗壞鄰居;義人卻因知識得救。

10 義人享福,合城喜樂;惡人滅亡,人都歡呼。

11 城因正直人祝福便高舉,卻因邪惡人的口就傾覆。

12 毫無智慧的,藐視鄰居[He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour];明哲人卻靜默不言。

13 搬弄是非的[talebearer],洩漏密事;靈裏忠誠[of a faithful spirit]的,[but]遮隱事情。

14 無智謀,民就敗落;[but]謀士多,人便安居。

15 為外人作保的,必受虧損;恨惡擊掌的,卻得安穩。

16 恩德的婦女得尊榮;強壯[strong]的男子得資財。

17 仁慈的人善待自己;唯有[but]殘忍的人擾害己身。

18 惡人經營,得虛浮的成果[work]唯有[but]撒義種的,[shall]得實在的果效。

19 恆心為義的,必得生命;追求邪惡的,必致死亡。

20 心中乖僻的,為耶和華所憎惡;行事正直[upright]的,[but]為他所喜悅。

21 惡人雖然連手,必不免受罰;[but]義人的後裔必得拯救。

22 婦女美貌而無見識,如同金[jewels]帶在豬鼻上。

23 義人的心願盡是善的[only good];惡人的指望卻是[but]忿怒。

24 有施散的,卻更增添;有吝惜過度的,反致窮乏。

25 好施捨的,必得豐裕;滋潤人的,必得滋潤。

26 屯穀[corn]不賣的,民必咒詛他;情願出賣的,人[but]必為他祝福。

27 懇切求善的,就求得恩惠;唯獨求惡的,惡必臨到他身。

28 倚仗自己財物的,必跌倒;[but]義人必發旺,如枝子[branch]

29 擾害己家的,必承受清風;愚昧人必作慧心人的僕人。

30 義人所結的果子就是生命樹;贏得人的,是有智慧[he that winneth souls is wise]

31 看哪,義人在世尚且受報;惡人和罪人就更受報了[much more the wicked and the sinner]

23 The desire8378 of the righteous6662 is only389 good:2896 but the expectation8615 of the wicked7563 is wrath.5678

24 There is3426 that scattereth,6340 and yet5750 increaseth;3254 and there is that withholdeth2820 more than is meet,4480 3476 but it tendeth to poverty.4270

25 The liberal1293 soul5315 shall be made fat:1878 and he that watereth7301 shall be watered3384 also1571 himself.1931

26 He that withholdeth4513 corn,1250 the people3816 shall curse6895 him: but blessing1293 shall be upon the head7218 of him that selleth7666 it.

27 He that diligently seeketh7836 good2896 procureth1245 favor:7522 but he that seeketh1875 mischief,7451 it shall come935 unto him.

28 He1931 that trusteth982 in his riches6239 shall fall:5307 but the righteous6662 shall flourish6524 as a branch.5929
