1:1 大卫的儿子以色列王所罗门的箴言：
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, the king of Israel:
1:2 要使人晓得智慧和训诲，辨识通达的言语；
For knowing wisdom and instruction; For discerning words of understanding;
1:3 使人领受训诲，处事明智，有公义、公平和公正；
For receiving instruction in wise conduct, Righteousness, justice, and equity;
1:4 使愚蒙人灵明，使少年人有知识和谋略；
For giving prudence to the simple, Knowledge and discretion to the young man;
1:5 使智慧人听见，增长学识，使聪明人得着智谋；
That the wise man may hear and increase in learning, And he who has understanding may acquire sound counsel;
1:6 使人明白箴言和譬喻，懂得智慧人的言辞和隐语。
For understanding proverb and figure, The words of the wise and their difficult sayings.
1:7 敬畏耶和华是知识的开端；愚妄人藐视智慧和训诲。
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge; Fools despise wisdom and instruction.
1:8 我儿，要听你父亲的训诲，不可离弃你母亲的指教；
Hear, my son, the instruction of your father, And do not reject the teaching of your mother;
1:9 因为这要作你头上的华冠，你项上的金链。
For they will be a wreath of grace for your head And ornaments for your neck.
1:10 我儿，恶人若引诱你，你不可随从。
My son, if sinners entice you, Do not consent.
1:11 他们若说，你与我们同去，我们要埋伏流人的血，要无故蹲伏害无辜的人；
If they say, Come with us; let us lie in wait for blood; Let us ambush the innocent without cause;
1:12 我们要像阴间把他们活活吞下，把他们如同下坑的人囫囵吞了。
Let us swallow them alive like Sheol, And whole, like those who go down into the pit.
1:13 我们必得各样宝物，将所掳来的，装满我们的房屋；
We will find all manner of precious goods; We will fill our houses with booty;
1:14 你与我们一同有分，大家共用一个囊袋。
Throw in your lot with us; We will all have one purse -
1:15 我儿，不要与他们同行这道路；禁止你的脚走他们的途径。
My son, do not walk with them on this way; Keep your foot from their path.
1:16 因为他们的脚向恶奔跑；他们急速流人的血。
For their feet run toward evil, And they hasten to shed blood.
1:17 好像飞鸟，虽有网罗张设在眼前，仍视而不见；
For in vain is the net spread In the eyes of any bird;
1:18 这些人埋伏，是为自流己血；蹲伏，是为自害己命。
Yet they lie in wait for their own blood; They ambush their own lives!
1:19 凡贪恋财利的，所行之路都是如此；这会夺去得财者的命。
Such are the ways of everyone greedy for gain; It takes away the life of its owners.
