箴言-Proverbs 第 11 章

11:1诡诈的天平为耶和华所憎恶;足重的法码为祂所喜悦。
A false balance is an abomination to Jehovah, But a full weight is His delight.
11:2骄傲来,羞耻也来;谦卑人却有智慧。
When pride comes, then comes dishonor; But wisdom is with the humble.
11:3正直人的纯全必引导自己;奸诈人的乖僻必毁灭自己。
The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perverseness of the treacherous will destroy them.
11:4忿怒的日子赀财无益;惟有公义能救人脱离死亡。
Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death.
11:5完全人的义必使他的道路平直;但恶人必因自己的恶跌倒。
The righteousness of the perfect man will make his way straight, But the wicked man will fall by his own wickedness.
11:6正直人的义必拯救自己;奸诈人必陷在自己的贪欲中。
The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, But the treacherous will be taken in their own craving.
11:7恶人一死,他的指望必灭绝;罪人的盼望也必灭没。
When a wicked man dies, his expectation will perish; And the hope of the strong perishes.
11:8义人得拯救脱离患难,有恶人来代替他。
The righteous man is delivered out of trouble, And the wicked man comes into it instead of him.
11:9不虔敬的人用口败坏邻舍;义人却因知识得救。
With his mouth the profane man destroys his neighbor, But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.
11:10义人得福,合城欢欣;恶人灭亡,人都欢呼。
When it goes well with the righteous, the city exults; And when the wicked perish, there is a ringing shout.
11:11因正直人祝福,城得高举;因邪恶人的口,城就倾覆。
By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted, But it is torn down by the mouth of the wicked.
11:12藐视邻舍的乃为无知,聪明人却静默不言。
He who despises his neighbor lacks sense, But a man of understanding keeps silent.
11:13往来搬弄是非的,泄漏秘密;灵里忠信的,遮隐事情。
He who goes about as a gossip reveals secrets, But he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter.
11:14无智谋,民就败落;谋士多,民就安全。
Where no sound counsel is, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
11:15为生人作保的,必受亏损;恨恶担保的,却得安稳。
He who is surety for a stranger will surely be troubled, But he who hates giving pledges is secure.
11:16恩德的妇女取得尊荣;强暴的男子取得赀财。
A gracious woman lays hold of honor, And violent men lay hold of riches.
11:17仁慈的人赏报己魂;残忍的人扰害己身。
The merciful man rewards his own soul, But the cruel troubles his own flesh.
11:18恶人赚得虚谎的工价;播种公义的,得真实的酬报。
The wicked man earns deceitful wages, But he who sows righteousness gets a true reward.
11:19恒心为义的,必得生命;追求邪恶的,必致死亡。
He who is steadfast in righteousness shall attain to life, And he who pursues evil advances to his own death.
11:20心中乖僻的,为耶和华所憎恶;行径完全的,为祂所喜悦。
Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to Jehovah, But those who are perfect in their way are His delight.
11:21你要确信,恶人必不免受罚;义人的后裔必得拯救。
Be assured: The evil man will not go unpunished; But the seed of the righteous will be delivered.
11:22妇女美貌而无见识,如同金环戴在猪鼻上。
Like a nose-ring of gold in a pig's snout, So is a beautiful woman who is without discretion.
11:23义人的愿望尽是美好;恶人的指望遭致忿怒。
The desire of the righteous is only good, But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
11:24有人施散,却更增添;有人吝惜过度,反致穷乏。
There is one who scatters and increases yet more, And there is one who withholds what is appropriate but ends up only in want.
11:25好施舍的,必得丰裕;滋润人的,必得滋润。
The blessing soul will prosper, And he who waters will also be watered himself.
11:26屯积粮谷的,民必咒诅他;出卖粮谷的,祝福必临到他头上。
As for him who withholds grain, the people will curse him; But blessing will be upon the head of him who sells it.
11:27殷切求善的,就求得恩惠;惟独求恶的,恶必临到他身。
He who diligently seeks good seeks favor; But as for him who searches after evil, it will come to him.
11:28倚仗自己财物的必败落;但义人必发旺如青叶。
He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like the green leaf.
11:29扰害己家的,必承受清风;愚妄人必作心中有智慧之人的仆人。
He who troubles his own house will inherit the wind, And a fool will be servant to the wise in heart.
11:30义人所结的果子是生命树;有智慧的,必能得人。
The fruit of the righteous man is a tree of life, And he who is wise wins souls.
11:31义人在世尚且受报,恶人和罪人更是如此!
If the righteous man will be recompensed on the earth, How much more the wicked man and the sinner!
