8:1 智慧岂不呼叫？聪明岂不扬声？
Does not wisdom call, And understanding lift up her voice?
8:2 她在路旁高处的顶上，在十字路口站立；
On the top of the heights, by the way, Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
8:3 在城门旁，在城门口，在城门的出入处大声呼喊：
Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, At the entrance of the doors, she cries aloud:
8:4 众人哪，我呼叫你们，我向世人发声，说，
To you, O men, I call; And my voice is to the sons of men.
8:5 愚蒙人哪，你们要会悟灵明；愚昧人哪，你们当心里明白。
O simple ones, understand prudence; And, O fools, be of an understanding heart.
8:6 你们当听，因我要说尊高的事；我张嘴要论正直的事。
Hear, for I will speak noble things; And the opening of my lips will yield right things.
8:7 我的口要发出真理，我的嘴憎恶邪恶。
For my mouth will utter truth, And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8:8 我口中的言语都是公义，其中并无弯曲乖僻。
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing twisted or crooked in them.
8:9 这些言语对明达的人，是正直的；对有知识的人，是正确的。
They are all straight to him who understands, And right to those who find knowledge.
8:10 你们当受我的训诲，不受银子；宁得知识，胜得精金。
Receive my instruction, and not silver; And knowledge rather than choice gold.
8:11 因为智慧比珊瑚更美，一切可喜爱的都不足与比较。
For wisdom is better than corals, And nothing that you desire compares with her.
8:12 我智慧与灵明同居，又寻得知识和谋略。
I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, And I find knowledge and discretion.
8:13 敬畏耶和华就要恨恶邪恶；骄傲、狂妄、恶道、以及乖谬的口，都为我所恨恶。
The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil; Pride and arrogance and the evil way And the perverse mouth, I hate.
8:14 我有计谋和真智慧；我乃聪明，我有能力。
Counsel is mine and sound wisdom; I am understanding; I have might.
8:15 帝王藉我掌权，君王藉我定公平。
By me kings reign, And rulers decree justice.
8:16 首领和贵胄－世上一切公正的审判官，都是藉我掌权。
By me princes rule, And nobles-all who judge righteously.
8:17 爱我的，我也爱他；殷切寻求我的，就必寻见。
I love those who love me, And those who seek me diligently will find me.
8:18 丰富和尊荣在我，恒久的赀财和公义也在我。
Riches and honor are with me, Enduring wealth and righteousness.
