箴言 16

心中的谋算在乎人； 舌头的应对由于耶和华。

xīn zhōng de móu suàn zài hu rén ； shé tou de yìng duì yóu yú yē hé huá 。

The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.

人一切所行的，在自己眼中看为清洁； 惟有耶和华衡量人心。

rén yí qiè suǒ xíng de ， zài zì jǐ yǎn zhōng kàn wéi qīng jié ； wéi yǒu yē hé huá héng liáng rén xīn 。

All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the motives.

你所做的，要交托耶和华， 你所谋的，就必成立。

nǐ suǒ zuò de ， yào jiāo tuō yē hé huá ， nǐ suǒ móu de ， jiù bì chéng lì 。

Commit your deeds to the LORD, and your plans shall succeed.

耶和华所造的，各适其用； 就是恶人也为祸患的日子所造。

yē hé huá suǒ zào de ， gè shì qí yòng ； jiù shì è rén yě wéi huò huàn de rì zi suǒ zào 。

The LORD has made everything for its own end— yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.

凡心里骄傲的，为耶和华所憎恶； 虽然连手，他必不免受罚。

fán xīn lǐ jiāo ào de ， wéi yē hé huá suǒ zēng wù ； suī rán lián shǒu ， tā bì bù miǎn shòu fá 。

Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD; they shall certainly not be unpunished.

因怜悯诚实，罪孽得赎； 敬畏耶和华的，远离恶事。

yīn lián mǐn chéng shí ， zuì niè dé shú ； jìng wèi yē hé huá de ， yuǎn lí è shì 。

By mercy and truth iniquity is atoned for. By the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.

人所行的，若蒙耶和华喜悦， 耶和华也使他的仇敌与他和好。

rén suǒ xíng de ， ruò méng yē hé huá xǐ yuè ， yē hé huá yě shǐ tā de chóu dí yǔ tā hé hǎo 。

When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

多有财利，行事不义， 不如少有财利，行事公义。

duō yǒu cái lì ， xíng shì bú yì ， bù rú shǎo yǒu cái lì ， xíng shì gōng yì 。

Better is a little with righteousness, than great revenues with injustice.

人心筹算自己的道路； 惟耶和华指引他的脚步。

rén xīn chóu suàn zì jǐ de dào lù ； wéi yē hé huá zhǐ yǐn tā de jiǎo bù 。

A man’s heart plans his course, but the LORD directs his steps.

王的嘴中有神语， 审判之时，他的口必不差错。

wáng de zuǐ zhōng yǒu shén yǔ ， shěn pàn zhī shí ， tā de kǒu bì bú chā cuò 。

Inspired judgments are on the lips of the king. He shall not betray his mouth.

公道的天平和秤都属耶和华； 囊中一切法码都为他所定。

gōng dào de tiān píng hé chèng dōu shǔ yē hé huá ； náng zhōng yí qiè fǎ mǎ dōu wéi tā suǒ dìng 。

Honest balances and scales are the LORD’s; all the weights in the bag are his work.

作恶，为王所憎恶， 因国位是靠公义坚立。

zuò è ， wéi wáng suǒ zēng wù ， yīn guó wèi shì kào gōng yì jiān lì 。

It is an abomination for kings to do wrong, for the throne is established by righteousness.

公义的嘴为王所喜悦； 说正直话的，为王所喜爱。

gōng yì de zuǐ wéi wáng suǒ xǐ yuè ； shuō zhèng zhí huà de ， wéi wáng suǒ xǐ ài 。

Righteous lips are the delight of kings. They value one who speaks the truth.

王的震怒如杀人的使者； 但智慧人能止息王怒。

wáng de zhèn nù rú shā rén de shǐ zhě ； dàn zhì huì rén néng zhǐ xī wáng nù 。

The king’s wrath is a messenger of death, but a wise man will pacify it.

王的脸光使人有生命； 王的恩典好像春云时雨。

wáng de liǎn guāng shǐ rén yǒu shēng mìng ； wáng de ēn diǎn hǎo xiàng chūn yún shí yǔ 。

In the light of the king’s face is life. His favor is like a cloud of the spring rain.

得智慧胜似得金子； 选聪明强如选银子。

dé zhì huì shèng sì dé jīn zi ； xuǎn cōng ming qiáng rú xuǎn yín zi 。

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.

正直人的道是远离恶事； 谨守己路的，是保全性命。

zhèng zhí rén de dào shì yuǎn lí è shì ； jǐn shǒu jǐ lù de ， shì bǎo quán xìng mìng 。

The highway of the upright is to depart from evil. He who keeps his way preserves his soul.

骄傲在败坏以先； 狂心在跌倒之前。

jiāo ào zài bài huài yǐ xiān ； kuáng xīn zài diē dǎo zhī qián 。

Pride goes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

心里谦卑与穷乏人来往， 强如将掳物与骄傲人同分。

xīn li qiān bēi yǔ qióng fá rén lái wǎng ， qiáng rú jiāng lǔ wù yǔ jiāo ào rén tóng fèn 。

It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, than to divide the plunder with the proud.

谨守训言的，必得好处； 倚靠耶和华的，便为有福。

jǐn shǒu xùn yán de ， bì dé hǎo chù ； yǐ kào yē hé huá de ， biàn wéi yǒu fú 。

He who heeds the Word finds prosperity. Whoever trusts in the LORD is blessed.

心中有智慧，必称为通达人； 嘴中的甜言，加增人的学问。

xīn zhōng yǒu zhì huì ， bì chēng wéi tōng dá rén ； zuǐ zhōng de tián yán ， jiā zēng rén de xué wèn 。

The wise in heart shall be called prudent. Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.

人有智慧就有生命的泉源； 愚昧人必被愚昧惩治。

rén yǒu zhì huì jiù yǒu shēng mìng de quán yuán ； yú mèi rén bì bèi yú mèi chéng zhì 。

Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it, but the punishment of fools is their folly.

智慧人的心教训他的口， 又使他的嘴增长学问。

zhì huì rén de xīn jiào xun tā de kǒu ， yòu shǐ tā de zuǐ zēng zhǎng xué wèn 。

The heart of the wise instructs his mouth, and adds learning to his lips.

良言如同蜂房， 使心觉甘甜，使骨得医治。

liáng yán rú tóng fēng fáng ， shǐ xīn jué gān tián ， shǐ gǔ dé yī zhì 。

Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

有一条路，人以为正， 至终成为死亡之路。

yǒu yì tiáo lù ， rén yǐ wéi zhèng ， zhì zhōng chéng wéi sǐ wáng zhī lù 。

There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.

劳力人的胃口使他劳力， 因为他的口腹催逼他。

láo lì rén de wèi kǒu shǐ tā láo lì ， yīn wèi tā de kǒu fù cuī bī tā 。

The appetite of the laboring man labors for him, for his mouth urges him on.

匪徒图谋奸恶， 嘴上仿佛有烧焦的火。

fěi tú tú móu jiān è ， zuǐ shàng fǎng fú yǒu shāo jiāo de huǒ 。

A worthless man devises mischief. His speech is like a scorching fire.

乖僻人播散纷争； 传舌的，离间密友。

guāi pì rén bō sàn fēn zhēng ； chuán shé de ， lí jiàn mì yǒu 。

A perverse man stirs up strife. A whisperer separates close friends.

强暴人诱惑邻舍， 领他走不善之道。

qiáng bào rén yòu huò lín shè ， lǐng tā zǒu bú shàn zhī dào 。

A man of violence entices his neighbor, and leads him in a way that is not good.

眼目紧合的，图谋乖僻； 嘴唇紧闭的，成就邪恶。

yǎn mù jǐn hé de ， tú móu guāi pì ； zuǐ chún jǐn bì de ， chéng jiù xié è 。

One who winks his eyes to plot perversities, one who compresses his lips, is bent on evil.

白发是荣耀的冠冕， 在公义的道上必能得着。

bái fà shì róng yào de guān miǎn ， zài gōng yì de dào shàng bì néng dé zháo 。

Gray hair is a crown of glory. It is attained by a life of righteousness.

不轻易发怒的，胜过勇士； 治服己心的，强如取城。

bù qīng yì fā nù de ， shèng guò yǒng shì ； zhì fú jǐ xīn de ， qiáng rú qǔ chéng 。

One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.

签放在怀里， 定事由耶和华。

qiān fàng zài huái lǐ ， dìng shì yóu yē hé huá 。

The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the LORD.
