1A man who remains stiff-necked after many rebukes will suddenly be destroyed—without remedy.
   
   << 箴 言 29 >>
   Proverbs 29 Chinese Bible: NCV (Traditional)
   1 公平誠實使國堅定. 人屢次受責備，仍然硬著頸項，他必突然毀滅，無法挽救。

   
   2 義人增多的時候，人民就喜樂；惡人掌權的時候，人民就歎息。
   
   3 喜愛智慧的，使父親喜樂；親近妓女的，耗盡家財。
   
   4 君王以公正使國堅立；收受賄賂的，使國覆亡。
   
   5 諂媚鄰舍的人，是在他的腳下張設網羅。
   
   6 惡人因為過犯，陷於網羅；義人卻歡呼喜樂。
   
   7 義人關注窮人的冤情；惡人卻不分辨實情。
   
   8 好譏笑人的煽動全城騷亂，智慧人卻止息眾怒。
   
   9 智慧人與愚妄人爭訟，愚妄人只會咆哮或嘲笑，總不能安靜。
   
   10 好流人血的恨惡完全人，並尋索正直人的性命。
   
   11 愚昧人把怒氣盡情發洩，智慧人卻抑制怒氣。
   
   12 如果掌權者聽信謊言，他所有的臣僕必都是壞人。
   
   13 世上有窮人，也有欺壓人的，兩者的眼睛都蒙耶和華光照。
   
   14 如果君王誠實地審判窮人；他的國位必永遠堅立。
   
   15 杖責和管教能使人有智慧，放縱的孩子使母親蒙羞。
   
   16 惡人增多的時候，過犯也必增多；義人必看見他們傾覆。
   
   17 管教你的兒子，他必使你得安息；也必使你的心得喜樂。
   
   18 沒有啟示，人民就沒有法紀；遵守律法的，就為有福。
   
   19 只用言語，不能使奴僕受管教；他雖然明白，卻沒有反應。
   
   20 你見過言語急躁的人嗎？愚昧人比他更有指望。
   
   21 如果人從小嬌縱僕人，結果必帶來憂愁。
   
   22 容易發怒的人，引起紛爭；脾氣暴烈的人，多有過犯。
   
   23 人的驕傲必使他卑微；心裡謙卑的，必得尊榮。
   
   24 與盜賊分贓的，是恨惡自己的性命；他雖然聽見要他起誓作證的聲音，卻不說話。
   
   25 懼怕人的，必陷入網羅；倚靠耶和華的，必得安全。
   
   26 很多人求掌權者的情面，但各人的判決是出於耶和華。
   
   27 不義的人是義人所厭惡的；行為正直的人是惡人所厭惡的。

   << Proverbs 29 >>
   New International Version
   
   1A man who remains stiff-necked after many rebukes
   
   will suddenly be destroyed—without remedy.
   
   2When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice;
   
   when the wicked rule, the people groan.
   
   3A man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father,
   
   but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.
   
   4By justice a king gives a country stability,
   
   but one who is greedy for bribes tears it down.
   
   5Whoever flatters his neighbor
   
   is spreading a net for his feet.
   
   6An evil man is snared by his own sin,
   
   but a righteous one can sing and be glad.
   
   7The righteous care about justice for the poor,
   
   but the wicked have no such concern.
   
   8Mockers stir up a city,
   
   but wise men turn away anger.
   
   9If a wise man goes to court with a fool,
   
   the fool rages and scoffs, and there is no peace.
   
   10Bloodthirsty men hate a man of integrity
   
   and seek to kill the upright.
   
   11A fool gives full vent to his anger,
   
   but a wise man keeps himself under control.
   
   12If a ruler listens to lies,
   
   all his officials become wicked.
   
   13The poor man and the oppressor have this in common:
   
   The Lord gives sight to the eyes of both.
   
   14If a king judges the poor with fairness,
   
   his throne will always be secure.
   
   15The rod of correction imparts wisdom,
   
   but a child left to himself disgraces his mother.
   
   16When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
   
   but the righteous will see their downfall.
   
   17Discipline your son, and he will give you peace;
   
   he will bring delight to your soul.
   
   18Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;
   
   but blessed is he who keeps the law.
   
   19A servant cannot be corrected by mere words;
   
   though he understands, he will not respond.
   
   20Do you see a man who speaks in haste?
   
   There is more hope for a fool than for him.
   
   21If a man pampers his servant from youth,
   
   he will bring griefa in the end.
   
   22An angry man stirs up dissension,
   
   and a hot-tempered one commits many sins.
   
   23A man’s pride brings him low,
   
   but a man of lowly spirit gains honor.
   
   24The accomplice of a thief is his own enemy;
   
   he is put under oath and dare not testify.
   
   25Fear of man will prove to be a snare,
   
   but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.
   
   26Many seek an audience with a ruler,
   
   but it is from the Lord that man gets justice.
   
   27The righteous detest the dishonest;
   
   the wicked detest the upright.
