箴言-Proverbs 第 9 章

9:1智慧建造房屋，凿出七根柱子；
Wisdom has built her house; She has hewn out her seven pillars;
9:2她宰牲调酒，设摆筵席；
She has slaughtered her beasts; She has mingled her wine; She has also set her table;
9:3打发使女出去，自己在城中至高处呼叫，说，
She has sent forth her maidens; She calls from the highest places of the city:
9:4谁是愚蒙人，可以转到这里来。又对那无知的人说，
Whoever is simple, let him turn in here; As for him who lacks sense, she says to him,
9:5你们来，吃我的饼，喝我调和的酒；
Come, eat of my bread, And drink of the wine which I have mingled.
9:6你们要舍弃愚蒙，就得存活，并要走聪明的道路。
Forsake foolishness, and live, And walk in the way of understanding.
9:7指正亵慢人的，必受羞辱；责备恶人的，必遭玷污。
He who corrects a scorner gets dishonor for himself, And he who reproves a wicked man blemishes himself.
9:8不要责备亵慢人，免得他恨你；要责备智慧人，他必爱你。
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，他就越发有智慧；指示义人，他就增长学识。
Impart something to a wise man, and he will become wiser still; Teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
9:10敬畏耶和华是智慧的开端，认识至圣者便是聪明。
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
9:11你藉着我，日子必增多，一生的年岁也必加添。
For by me your days will be multiplied, And the years of your life will be increased.
9:12你若有智慧，是与自己有益；你若亵慢，就必独自担当后果。
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; And if you are scornful, you alone will bear it.
9:13愚昧妇人喧嚷；她是愚蒙，一无所知。
The woman Foolishness is rowdy; She is simple and knows nothing.
9:14她坐在自己的家门口，坐在城中高处的座位上，
And she sits at the door of her house, On a seat in the heights of the city,
9:15呼叫过路的，就是直行其道的人，说，
To call to those who pass by, Who go straight on their ways:
9:16谁是愚蒙人，可以转到这里来。
Whoever is simple, let him turn in here; And as for him who lacks sense, she says to him,
9:17又对那无知的人说，偷来的水是甜的，暗得的饼是好的。
Stolen waters are sweet, And bread gotten in secret is pleasant.
9:18人却不知有阴魂在她那里，她的客人在阴间的深处。
But he does not know that the dead are there, That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
