箴言-Proverbs 6

6:1　My son, if you have become a surety for your neighbor, If you have given your hands as a pledge for a stranger,
我儿，你若为邻舍作保，替生人击掌担保，
6:2　You are snared by the words of your mouth; You are caught by the words of your mouth.
你就被口中的话语缠住，被嘴里的言语捉住。
6:3　Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, Since you have come into the hand of your neighbor: Go, humble yourself, and plead with your neighbor.
我儿，你既落在邻舍手中，就当这样行才可救自己：你要去，降卑自己，恳求你的邻舍。
6:4　Do not give sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your eyelids.
不容你的眼睛睡觉，不容你的眼皮打盹。
6:5　Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hunter's hand And like a bird from the fowler's hand.
要救自己，如羚羊脱离猎户的手，如鸟脱离捕鸟人的手。
6:6　Go to the ant, you sluggard; Consider its ways, and be wise,
懒惰人哪，你去察看蚂蚁的行径，就可得智慧。
6:7　Which, having no chief, Officer, or ruler,
蚂蚁没有元帅，没有官长，没有统管，
6:8　Prepares its food in summer And gathers its sustenance in the harvest.
尚且在夏天预备食物，在收割时聚敛粮食。
6:9　How long, sluggard, will you lie there? When will you arise from your sleep?
懒惰人哪，你要躺卧到几时呢？你何时睡醒起来呢？
6:10　A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest,
再睡片时，打盹片时，抱着手躺卧片时，
6:11　And your poverty will come upon you like a robber, And your want, like an armed man.
你的贫穷就必如强盗来临，你的缺乏就必如拿兵器的人来到。
6:12　A worthless man, a wicked man, Goes around with a perverse mouth,
卑劣之徒，作恶之人，行事满口乖僻，
6:13　Winking with his eyes, signaling with his feet, Pointing with his fingers;
挤眉弄眼，用脚示意，用指点划，
6:14　With perverseness in his heart, he is devising evil continually; He injects discord.
心存乖僻，常设恶谋，布散纷争。
6:15　Therefore his calamity will come suddenly; In a moment he will be broken, and there will be no remedy.
所以，灾难必忽然临到；他必顷刻破败，无法可治。
6:16　There are six things that Jehovah hates; Indeed, seven that are an abomination to His soul:
耶和华所恨恶的有六样，连祂魂所憎恶的共有七样，
6:17　Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood,
就是高傲的眼、撒谎的舌、流无辜人血的手、
6:18　A heart that devises wicked schemes, Feet that hurry to run to evil,
图谋恶计的心、飞跑行恶的脚、
6:19　A false witness who utters lies, And one who injects discord among brothers.
吐谎言的假见证人、并在弟兄中布散纷争的人。
6:20　My son, keep the commandment of your father, And do not reject the teaching of your mother;
我儿，要谨守你父亲的诫命，不可离弃你母亲的指教，
6:21　Bind them continually on your heart; Tie them around your neck.
要常系在你心上，绑在你颈项上。
6:22　When you walk about, it will guide you, When you lie down, it will watch over you; And when you awake, it will talk with you.
你行走，它必引导你；你躺卧，它必看守你；你睡醒，它必与你谈论。
6:23　For the commandment is a lamp, and the teaching a light, And the reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
因为诫命是灯，指教是光，训诲的责备是生命的道路，
6:24　To keep you from the evil woman, From the smooth tongue of the adulteress.
能保守你远离恶妇，远离外女油滑的舌头。
6:25　Do not desire her beauty in your heart, Nor let her catch you with her eyelids;
你心中不要贪恋她的美色，也不要被她的眼皮勾引；
6:26　For the price of a harlot is a loaf of bread, But the wife of another man hunts for the precious soul.
因为妓女的代价只是一块饼；淫妇却猎取人宝贵的性命。
6:27　Can a man take fire in his bosom And his clothes not be burned?
人若怀里搋火，衣服岂能不烧着呢？
6:28　Can a man walk on hot coals And his feet not be scorched?
人若在火炭上走，脚岂能不灼伤呢？
6:29　So it is with him who goes in to his neighbor's wife; No one who touches her will be unpunished.
与邻舍之妻同寝的，也是如此；凡挨触她的，必难免受罚。
6:30　The thief is not despised if he steals To satisfy himself when he is hungry;
贼因饥饿偷窃充饥，人不藐视他；
6:31　But if he is found out, he shall restore sevenfold; He must give over all the substance of his house.
他若被发现，就要赔还七倍，要将家中所有的尽都交出。
6:32　He who commits adultery with a woman lacks sense; He who does it destroys his own soul.
与妇人行淫的，便是无知；行这事的，自毁性命。
6:33　He will find wounds and dishonor, And his reproach will not be wiped away.
他必受伤损，遭凌辱；他的羞耻不得涂抹。
6:34　For jealousy is the rage of a man, And he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
因为嫉恨乃是男人的烈怒，在报仇的日子绝不留情。
6:35　He will not regard any ransom, Nor will he be content if you give him great gifts.
什么赎价，他都不顾；你虽送许多礼物，他也不肯干休。
