A Little Foolishness
1死苍蝇使做香的膏油发出臭气；这样，一点愚昧也能败坏智慧和尊荣。2智慧人的心居右；愚昧人的心居左。3并且愚昧人行路显出无知，对众人说，他是愚昧人。4掌权者的心若向你发怒，不要离开你的本位，因为柔和能免大过。
1Dead flies turn a perfumer’s oil rancid, so a little foolishness is more potent than wisdom and honor. 2A wise person’s heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish person’s heart directs him toward the left. 3Even when the fool walks along the road, his sense is lacking, and he demonstrates to everyone that he is a fool. 4If the ruler’s temper rises against you, do not abandon your place, because composure puts great offenses to rest.
5我见日光之下有一件祸患，似乎出于掌权的错误，6就是愚昧人立在高位；富足人坐在低位。7我见过仆人骑马，王子像仆人在地上步行。
5There is an evil I have seen under the sun, like a mistake that proceeds from the ruler: 6foolishness is set in many exalted places while the rich sit in humble places. 7I have seen slaves riding on horses and princes walking like slaves on the land.
8挖陷坑的，自己必掉在其中；拆墙垣的，必为蛇所咬。9凿开或译：挪移石头的，必受损伤；劈开木头的，必遭危险。10铁器钝了，若不将刃磨快，就必多费气力；但得智慧指教，便有益处。11未行法术以先，蛇若咬人，后行法术也是无益。12智慧人的口说出恩言；愚昧人的嘴吞灭自己。13他口中的言语起头是愚昧；他话的末尾是奸恶的狂妄。14愚昧人多有言语，人却不知将来有什么事；他身后的事谁能告诉他呢？15凡愚昧人，他的劳碌使自己困乏，因为连进城的路，他也不知道。16邦国啊，你的王若是孩童，你的群臣早晨宴乐，你就有祸了！17邦国啊，你的王若是贵胄之子，你的群臣按时吃喝，为要补力，不为酒醉，你就有福了！18因人懒惰，房顶塌下；因人手懒，房屋滴漏。19设摆筵席是为喜笑。酒能使人快活；钱能叫万事应心。20你不可咒诅君王，也不可心怀此念；在你卧房也不可咒诅富户。因为空中的鸟必传扬这声音，有翅膀的也必述说这事。
8One who digs a pit may fall into it, and a serpent may bite one who breaks through a wall. 9One who quarries stones may be hurt by them, and one who splits logs may be endangered by them. 10If the axe is dull and he does not sharpen its edge, then he must exert more strength. Wisdom has the advantage of bringing success. 11If the serpent bites before being charmed, there is no benefit for the charmer. 12Words from the mouth of a wise person are gracious, while the lips of a fool consume him; 13the beginning of his talking is foolishness, and the end of it is evil insanity. 14Yet the fool multiplies words. No person knows what will happen, and who can tell him what will come after him? 15The labor of a fool makes him so weary that he does not even know how to go to a city. 16Woe to you, land whose king is a boy, and whose princes feast in the morning. 17Blessed are you, land whose king is of nobility, and whose princes eat at the appropriate time—for strength and not for drunkenness. 18Through extreme laziness the rafters sag, and through idleness the house leaks. 19People prepare a meal for enjoyment, wine makes life joyful, and money is the answer to everything. 20Furthermore, in your bedroom do not curse a king, and in your sleeping rooms do not curse a rich person; for a bird of the sky will bring the sound, and the winged one will make your word known.
