我儿，要听你父亲的训诲，不可离弃你母亲的法则。（或作指教）
My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: |
|
| 1:9 |
因为这要作为你头上的华冠，项上的金链。
For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck. |
|
| 1:10 |
我儿，恶人若引诱你，你不可随从。
My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. |
|
| 1:11 |
他们若说，你与我们同去，我们要埋伏流人之血，要蹲伏害无罪之人。
If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: |
|
| 1:12 |
我们好像阴间，把他们活活吞下。他们如同下坑的人，被我们囫囵吞了。
Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit: |
|
| 1:13 |
我们必得各样宝物，将所掳来的装满房屋。
We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil: |

| 1:14 |
你与我们大家同分。我们共用一各囊袋。
Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: |
|
| 1:15 |
我儿，不要与他们同行一道。禁止你脚走他们的路。
My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: |
|
| 1:16 |
因为他们的脚奔跑行恶，他们急速流人的血。
For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. |
|
| 1:17 |
好像飞鸟，网罗设在眼前仍不躲避。
Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird. |
|
| 1:18 |
这些人埋伏，是为自流己血。蹲伏是为自害己命。
And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives. |
|
| 1:19 |
凡贪恋财利的，所行之路，都是如此。这贪恋之心，乃夺去得财者之命。
So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof. |
|
| 1:20 |
智慧在街市上呼喊，在宽阔处发声。
Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: |
|
| 1:21 |
在热闹街头喊叫，在城门口，在城中发出言语。
She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, |
|
| 1:22 |
说你们愚昧人喜爱愚昧，亵慢人喜欢亵慢，愚顽人恨恶知识，要到几时呢。
How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? |
|
| 1:23 |
你们当因我的责备回转。我要将我的灵浇灌你们，将我的话指示你们。
Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. |
|
| 1:24 |
我呼唤你们不肯听从。我伸手，无人理会。
Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; |
|
| 1:25 |
反轻弃我一切的劝戒，不肯受我的责备。
But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: |
|
| 1:26 |
你们遭灾难，我就发笑惊恐临到你们，我必嗤笑。
I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; |
|
| 1:27 |
惊恐临到你们，好像狂风，灾难来到，如同暴风。急难痛苦临到你们身上。
When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. |
|
| 1:28 |
那时，你们必呼求我，我却不答应，恳切的寻梢我，却寻不见。
Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: |
|
| 1:29 |
因为你们恨恶知识，不喜爱敬畏耶和华，
For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: |
|
| 1:30 |
不听我的劝戒，藐视我一切的责备，
They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. |
|
| 1:31 |
所以必吃自结的果子，充满自设的计谋。
Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. |
|
| 1:32 |
愚昧人背道，必杀己身，愚顽人安逸，必害己命。
For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. |
|
| 1:33 |
惟有听从我的，必安然居住，得享安静，不怕灾祸。
But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. |
