德訓篇 |
Sirach | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 好醉酒的工人，不會致富；凡輕忽小事的，不久必會失足。 | 1 | Hast thou heard a word against thy neighbour? let it die within thee, trusting that it will not burst thee. |
| 2 | 醇酒與美女，迷惑明智人，使聰明人遭受責斥。 | 2 | At the hearing of a word the fool is in travail, as a woman groaning. in the bringing forth a child. |
| 3 | 凡與娼婦結合的，必放蕩不羈，必為腐爛與蛆蟲所佔有；人必將他提出來，作為殷鑒；冒失的人，必要喪亡。 | 3 | As an arrow that sticketh in a man's thigh: so is a word in the heart of a fool. |
| 4 | 輕信的人，必然心地輕浮，他必被小看；犯罪的人，是傷害自己的靈魂。 | 4 | Reprove a friend, lest he may not have understood, and say : f did it not: or if he did it, that he may do it no more. |
| 5 | 喜愛惡事的，必被定罪；厭惡勸戒的，必縮短自己的性命。憎惡閒談的，必能避免邪惡。 | 5 | Reprove thy neighbour, for it may be he hath not said it: and if he hath said it, that he may not say it again. |
| 6 | 犯罪害自己靈魂的，必要後悔；愛好邪惡的，必受責斥。 | 6 | Admonish thy friend: for there is often a fault committed. |
| 7 | 切不可重述一句猥褻和粗魯的話；如此，你就不至於受害。 | 7 | And believe not every word. There is one, that slippeth with the tongue, but not from his heart. |
| 8 | 不論是朋友，或是仇人，都不要向他們述說你的心意；假使你不吐露，為你不是罪過。 | 8 | For who is there that hath not offended with his tongue? Admonish thy neighbour before thou threaten him. |
| 9 | 因為，凡聽你的人，必要防備你，時機一到他就辨明自己無罪，而憎恨你，並且常要這樣對待你。 | 9 | And give place to the fear of the most High: for the fear of God is all wisdom, and therein is to fear God, and the disposition of the law is in all wisdom. |
| 10 | 你聽見了什麼攻擊別人的話嗎？讓它死在你心裡；放心，它不會撐破你的。 | 10 | But the learning of wickedness is not wisdom: and the device of sinners is not prudence. |
| 11 | 愚人為保守一句話，感到痛苦，有如臨產的婦女。 | 11 | There is a subtle wickedness, and the same is detestable: and there is a man that is foolish, wanting in wisdom. |
| 12 | 一句話在愚人心裡，就如一枝箭射在大腿上一樣。 | 12 | Better is a man that hath less wisdom, and wanteth understanding, with the fear of God, than he that aboundeth in understanding, and transgresseth the law of the most High. |
| 13 | 你應質問朋友，也許他沒有做；他若做了，叫他不要再做。 | 13 | There is an exquisite subtilty, and the same is unjust. |
| 14 | 你應質問鄰人，也許他沒有說；他若說了，叫他不要再說。 | 14 | And there is one that uttereth an exact word telling the truth. There is one that humbleth himself wickedly, and his interior is full of deceit: |
| 15 | 你應質問朋友，因為多次發生誣謗的事； | 15 | And there is one that submitteth himself exceedingly with a great lowliness: and there is one that casteth down his countenance, and maketh as if he did not see that which is unknown: |
| 16 | 因此，不可盡信所有的話。有人說滑了口，卻不是出於有心。 | 16 | And if he be hindered from sinning for want of power, if he shall find opportunity to do evil, he will do it. |
| 17 | 誰沒有因自己的舌頭犯過罪呢？在恐嚇人以前，應先詢問他； | 17 | A man is known by his look, and a wise man, when thou meetest him, is known by his countenance. |
| 18 | 你要給至高者的法律留有餘地。 | 18 | The attire of the body, and the laughter of the teeth, and the gait of the man, shew what he is. |
| 19 | 作惡的知識，不是智慧；罪人的計謀，也不是明智。 | 19 | There is a lying rebuke in the anger of an injurious man: and there is a judgment that is not allowed to be good: and there is one that holdeth his peace, he is wise. |
| 20 | 有一種能幹是討厭的，有一種愚蒙，是缺乏智慧的。 | 20 | |
| 21 | 寡知少識而敬畏天主的人，勝於多智而干犯至高者法律的人。 | 21 | |
| 22 | 有一種奸滑的聰明，也是不義的；有一種人，為討人喜歡，竟妄下論斷。 | 22 | |
| 23 | 有一種壞人，外面表示謙恭後悔，心裡卻滿懷欺詐。 | 23 | |
| 24 | 有人低頭裝聾，假裝看不見別人不知道的事，但是在你不提防時，他卻來加害你。 | 24 | |
| 25 | 假使因軟弱無力，不能犯罪，一旦遇到機會，他必要作惡。 | 25 | |
| 26 | 由外表，可以認識人；從面貌上，可以看出他是否明智。 | 26 | |
| 27 | 人的服裝、喜笑和步伐，都表示他的為人。 | 27 | |
| 28 | 好淩辱人的人，在怒氣中的責斥，是騙人的；有的責斥，是不合時宜的；緘口不言的人，卻是明智的。 | 28 | |
