善恶互论垂为箴言

13 智慧子听父亲的教训,亵慢人不听责备。 人因口所结的果子必享美福,奸诈人必遭强暴。 谨守口的得保生命,大张嘴的必致败亡。 懒惰人羡慕却无所得,殷勤人必得丰裕。 义人恨恶谎言,恶人有臭名,且致惭愧。 行为正直的有公义保守,犯罪的被邪恶倾覆。 假作富足的,却一无所有;装作穷乏的,却广有财物。 人的资财是他生命的赎价,穷乏人却听不见威吓的话。 义人的光明亮[a],恶人的灯要熄灭。 10 骄傲只启争竞,听劝言的却有智慧。 11 不劳而得之财必然消耗,勤劳积蓄的必见加增。 12 所盼望的迟延未得,令人心忧;所愿意的临到,却是生命树。 13 藐视训言的自取灭亡,敬畏诫命的必得善报。 14 智慧人的法则[b]是生命的泉源,可以使人离开死亡的网罗。 15 美好的聪明使人蒙恩,奸诈人的道路崎岖难行。 16 凡通达人都凭知识行事,愚昧人张扬自己的愚昧。 17 奸恶的使者必陷在祸患里,忠信的使臣乃医人的良药。 18 弃绝管教的必致贫受辱,领受责备的必得尊荣。 19 所欲的成就,心觉甘甜;远离恶事,为愚昧人所憎恶。 20 与智慧人同行的必得智慧,和愚昧人做伴的必受亏损。 21 祸患追赶罪人,义人必得善报。 22 善人给子孙遗留产业,罪人为义人积存资财。 23 穷人耕种多得粮食,但因不义有消灭的。 24 不忍用杖打儿子的,是恨恶他;疼爱儿子的,随时管教。 25 义人吃得饱足,恶人肚腹缺粮。

13 A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

21 Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed.
