Warnings and Instructions

1Do not boast about tomorrow,
For you do not know what a day may bring.
2Let another praise you, and not your own mouth;
A stranger, and not your own lips.
3A stone is heavy and the sand weighty,
But the provocation of a fool is heavier than both of them.
4Wrath is fierce and anger is a flood,
But who can stand before jealousy?
5Better is open rebuke
Than love that is concealed.
6Faithful are the wounds of a friend,
But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
7A satisfied person despises honey,
But to a hungry person any bitter thing is sweet.
8Like a bird that wanders from its nest,
So is a person who wanders from his home.
9Oil and perfume make the heart glad,
And a person’s advice is sweet to his friend.
10Do not abandon your friend or your father’s friend,
And do not go to your brother’s house on the day of your disaster;
Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away.
11Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad,
So that I may reply to one who taunts me.
12A prudent person sees evil and hides himself;
But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty.
13Take his garment when he becomes a guarantor for a stranger;
And for a foreign woman seize a pledge from him.
14One who blesses his friend with a loud voice early in the morning,
It will be considered a curse to him.
15A constant dripping on a day of steady rain
And a contentious woman are alike;
16He who would restrain her restrains the wind,
And grasps oil with his right hand.
17As iron sharpens iron,
So one person sharpens another.
18One who tends the fig tree will eat its fruit,
And one who cares for his master will be honored.
19As in water a face reflects the face,
So the heart of a person reflects the person.
20Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied,
Nor are the eyes of a person ever satisfied.
21The crucible is for silver and the furnace for gold,
And each is tested by the praise accorded him.
22Though you pound the fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain,
His foolishness still will not leave him.
1不要為明日自誇,因為一日要生何事,你尚且不能知道。2要別人誇獎你,不可用口自誇;等外人稱讚你,不可用嘴自稱。3石頭重,沙土沉,愚妄人的惱怒比這兩樣更重。4忿怒為殘忍,怒氣為狂瀾,惟有嫉妒,誰能敵得住呢?5當面的責備強如背地的愛情。6朋友加的傷痕出於忠誠;仇敵連連親嘴卻是多餘。7人吃飽了,厭惡蜂房的蜜;人飢餓了,一切苦物都覺甘甜。8人離本處飄流,好像雀鳥離窩遊飛。9膏油與香料使人心喜悅;朋友誠實的勸教也是如此甘美。10你的朋友和父親的朋友,你都不可離棄。你遭難的日子,不要上弟兄的家去;相近的鄰舍強如遠方的弟兄。11我兒,你要作智慧人,好叫我的心歡喜,使我可以回答那譏誚我的人。12通達人見禍藏躲;愚蒙人前往受害。13誰為生人作保,就拿誰的衣服;誰為外女作保,誰就承當。14清晨起來,大聲給朋友祝福的,就算是咒詛他。15大雨之日連連滴漏,和爭吵的婦人一樣;16想攔阻她的,便是攔阻風,也是右手抓油。17鐵磨鐵,磨出刃來;朋友相感原文是磨朋友的臉也是如此。18看守無花果樹的,必吃樹上的果子;敬奉主人的,必得尊榮。19水中照臉,彼此相符;人與人,心也相對。20陰間和滅亡永不滿足;人的眼目也是如此。21鼎為煉銀,爐為煉金,人的稱讚也試煉人。22你雖用杵將愚妄人與打碎的麥子一同搗在臼中,他的愚妄還是離不了他。
23Know well the condition of your flocks,
And pay attention to your herds;
24For riches are not forever,
Nor does a crown endure to all generations.
25When the grass disappears, the new growth is seen,
And the herbs of the mountains are gathered in,
26The lambs will be for your clothing,
And the goats will bring the price of a field,
27And there will be enough goats’ milk for your food,
For the food of your household,
And sustenance for your attendants.
23你要詳細知道你羊群的景況,留心料理你的牛群;24因為資財不能永有,冠冕豈能存到萬代?25乾草割去,嫩草發現,山上的菜蔬也被收斂。26羊羔之毛是為你作衣服;山羊是為作田地的價值,27並有母山羊奶夠你吃,也夠你的家眷吃,且夠養你的婢女。
