箴言 11
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
11 诡诈的天平为耶和华所憎恶；
公平的法码为他所喜悦。
2 骄傲来，羞耻也来；
谦逊人却有智慧。
3 正直人的纯正必引导自己；
奸诈人的邪恶必毁灭自己。
4 遭怒的日子钱财无益；
惟有公义能救人脱离死亡。
5 完全人的义修平自己的路；
但恶人必因自己的恶跌倒。
6 正直人的义必拯救自己；
奸诈人必被自己的欲望缠住。
7 恶人一死，他的指望就灭绝；
罪人的盼望也必灭绝。
8 义人得脱离患难，
有恶人来代替他。
9 不虔敬的人用口败坏邻舍；
义人却因知识得救。
10 义人享福，全城喜乐；
恶人灭亡，人人欢呼。
11 因正直人的祝福，城必升高；
因邪恶人的口，它必倾覆。
12 藐视邻舍的，便是无知；
聪明人却静默不言。
13 到处传话的，泄漏机密；
内心老实的，保守秘密。
14 无智谋，民就败落；
谋士多，就必得胜。
15 为陌生人担保的，必受亏损；
恨恶击掌的，却得安稳。
16 恩慈的妇女得尊荣；
强壮的男子得财富。
17 仁慈的人善待自己；
残忍的人扰害己身。
18 恶人做事，得虚幻的报酬；
撒公义种子的，得实在的报偿。
19 真正行义的，必得生命；
追求邪恶的，必致死亡。
20 心中歪曲的，为耶和华所憎恶；
行为正直的，为他所喜悦。
21 击掌保证，恶人难免受罚；
义人的后裔必得拯救。
22 妇女美貌而无见识，
如同金环戴在猪鼻上。
23 义人的心愿尽是好的；
恶人的指望却带来愤怒。
24 有施舍的，钱财增添；
吝惜过度，反致穷乏。
25 慷慨待人，必然丰裕；
滋润人的，连自己也得滋润。
26 屯粮不卖的，百姓必诅咒他；
愿意出售的，祝福临到头上。
27 恳切求善的，就求得恩宠；
但那求恶的，恶必临到他。
28 倚靠财富的，自己必跌倒；
义人必兴旺如绿叶。
29 扰害己家的，必承受虚空[a]；
愚妄人作心中有智慧者的仆人。
30 义人的果实是生命树；
智慧人必能得人。
31 看哪，义人在地上尚且受报，
何况恶人和罪人呢？

Proverbs 11
New King James Version
The Folly of Wickedness
2 When pride comes, then comes (B)shame;
But with the humble is wisdom.
3 The integrity of the upright will guide (C)them,
But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.
4 (D)Riches do not profit in the day of wrath,
But (E)righteousness delivers from death.
5 The righteousness of the blameless will [c]direct his way aright,
But the wicked will fall by his own (F)wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,
But the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.
7 When a wicked man dies, his expectation will (G)perish,
And the hope of the unjust perishes.
8 (H)The righteous is delivered from trouble,
And it comes to the wicked instead.
9 The hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor,
But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.
10 (I)When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices;
And when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.
11 By the blessing of the upright the city is (J)exalted,
But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 He who [d]is devoid of wisdom despises his neighbor,
But a man of understanding holds his peace.
14 (M)Where there is no counsel, the people fall;
But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
16 A gracious woman retains honor,
But ruthless men retain riches.
17 (O)The merciful man does good for his own soul,
But he who is cruel troubles his own flesh.
18 The wicked man does deceptive work,
But (P)he who sows righteousness will have a sure reward.
19 As righteousness leads to (Q)life,
So he who pursues evil pursues it to his own (R)death.
20 Those who are of a perverse heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the blameless in their ways are His delight.
21 (S)Though they join [g]forces, the wicked will not go unpunished;
But (T)the posterity of the righteous will be delivered.
22 As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout,
So is a lovely woman who lacks [h]discretion.
23 The desire of the righteous is only good,
But the expectation of the wicked (U)is wrath.
24 There is one who (V)scatters, yet increases more;
And there is one who withholds more than is right,
But it leads to poverty.
25 (W)The generous soul will be made rich,
(X)And he who waters will also be watered himself.
26 The people will curse (Y)him who withholds grain,
But (Z)blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.
29 He who troubles his own house (AD)will inherit the wind,
And the fool will be (AE)servant to the wise of heart.
31 (AG)If the righteous will be [k]recompensed on the earth,
How much more the ungodly and the sinner.

Proverbs 11
King James Version
11 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
7 When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perisheth.
8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
9 An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
10 When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
13 A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
15 He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure.
16 A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches.
17 The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
18 The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
19 As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.
20 They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the Lord: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
21 Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
22 As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
23 The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24 There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
26 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.
27 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
28 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
31 Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
