8:19 我的果实胜过金子，强如精金；我的出产超乎精选的银子。
My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold; And my yield than choice silver.
8:20 我走在公义的道路上，行在公平的途径中，
I walk in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice,
8:21 使爱我的承受资产，并充满他们的府库。
That I may cause those who love me to inherit substance And that I may fill their treasuries.
8:22 耶和华在祂造化的起头，在太初造作万物之先，就有了我。
Jehovah possessed me in the beginning of His way, Before His works of old.
8:23 从亘古，从太初，未有大地以前，我已被立。
I was set up from eternity, From the beginning, before the earth was.
8:24 未有深渊，未有满溢的水泉以先，我已生出。
When there were no depths, I was brought forth, When there were no fountains abounding with water.
8:25 大山未曾奠定，小山未有以先，我已生出；
Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills, I was brought forth;
8:26 那时耶和华还没有造出大地和田野，并世上最初的尘土。
When He had not yet made the earth and the fields, Nor the first dust of the world.
8:27 祂立诸天，我在那里；祂在渊面周围，画出圆圈，
When He established the heavens, I was there; When He inscribed a circle upon the surface of the deep,
8:28 上使穹苍坚硬，下使渊源稳固，
When He made firm the skies above, When the fountains of the deep became strong,
8:29 为沧海定出界限，使水不越过祂的命令，画定大地的根基；
When He set for the sea its boundary, That the waters should not transgress His commandment, When He marked out the foundations of the earth;
8:30 那时我在祂旁边为工师，日日为祂所喜爱，常常在祂面前欢跃，
Then I was by Him, as a master workman; And I was daily His delight, Rejoicing always before Him,
8:31 欢跃于祂所预备居人之地；并且世人是我所喜爱的。
Rejoicing in His habitable earth; And my delight was in the sons of men.
8:32 众子阿，现在要听从我；因为谨守我道路的，便为有福。
Now therefore, my sons, listen to me; For blessed are they who keep my ways.
8:33 要听训诲，要有智慧，不可轻忽。
Hear instruction, and be wise; And do not neglect it.
8:34 听从我，日日在我门口儆醒，在我门框旁边守候的，那人便为有福。
Blessed is the man who listens to me, Watching daily at my doors, Waiting at my doorposts.
8:35 因为寻得我的，就寻得生命，也必从耶和华得恩惠。
For whoever finds me finds life, And will obtain favor from Jehovah.
8:36 但得罪我的，却害自己的性命；恨恶我的，都喜爱死亡。
But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; All who hate me love death.
