Sprüche 27 | English Standard Version

1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring. 2 Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips. 3 A stone is heavy, and sand is weighty, but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both. 4 Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy? 5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love. 6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy. 7 One who is full loathes honey, but to one who is hungry everything bitter is sweet. 8 Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man who strays from his home. 9 Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.* 10 Do not forsake your friend and your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away. 11 Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him who reproaches me. 12 The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it. 13 Take a man’s garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for an adulteress.* 14 Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing. 15 A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike; 16 to restrain her is to restrain the wind or to grasp* oil in one’s right hand. 17 Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.* 18 Whoever tends a fig tree will eat its fruit, and he who guards his master will be honored. 19 As in water face reflects face, so the heart of man reflects the man. 20 Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied, and never satisfied are the eyes of man. 21 The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and a man is tested by his praise. 22 Crush a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain, yet his folly will not depart from him. 23 Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds, 24 for riches do not last forever; and does a crown endure to all generations? 25 When the grass is gone and the new growth appears and the vegetation of the mountains is gathered, 26 the lambs will provide your clothing, and the goats the price of a field. 27 There will be enough goats’ milk for your food, for the food of your household and maintenance for your girls.

1 不要为明天夸口，因为你不知明天会怎样。 2 让别人夸奖你，不要开口自夸；让外人称赞你，不要自吹自擂。 3 石头沉，沙土重，不如愚人惹的麻烦重。 4 暴怒固然残酷，愤恨好比狂澜，然而嫉妒更是无人能敌。 5 开诚布公的责备胜过隐藏的爱。 6 朋友加的创伤出自真诚，仇敌连连亲吻却是多余。 7 饱足的人连蜂蜜也嫌弃，饥饿的人吃苦食也甘甜。 8 离乡背井的人就像离巢的飞鸟。 9 膏油和香料使人畅快，朋友的劝诫更加甘甜。 10 不可抛弃你的朋友和父亲的至交。患难时别投靠兄弟，近邻胜过远亲。 11 孩子啊，你要做智者，使我的心喜乐，我好回答讥笑我的人。 12 明哲人遇祸躲避，愚昧人前去受害。 13 谁为陌生人作保，就拿谁的衣服；谁为淫妇作保，谁就得交抵押。 14 清早高声为邻舍祝福，无异于咒诅他。 15 喋喋不休的妇人，就像雨天房屋漏个不停； 16 想制止她犹如制止狂风，又像用手抓油一样困难。 17 朋友互相切磋，如铁磨铁越磨越利。 18 看无花果树的吃无花果，照顾主人的也必得尊荣。 19 水能映照人的面貌，心能反映人的本相。 20 阴间和死亡填不满，人的眼目永不满足。 21 鼎炼银，炉炼金，赞美也考验人。 22 就算把愚人放在臼里与麦子一起捣碎，他仍然难脱愚昧。 23 你要了解你的羊群，小心照料你的牲畜。 24 因为钱财有用尽时，冠冕不能万代长存。 25 干草割去，嫩草长出，山间的野草都被收起来。 26 小羊的皮毛可做衣服，卖山羊的钱可买田地， 27 母山羊的奶足够你和家人喝，也够养活你的仆婢。
