箴言 知恵の泉 15
1 柔和なる答は憤恨をとどめ厲しき言は怒を激す
A mild response shatters anger. But a harsh word stirs up fury.

A peaceful tongue is a tree of life. But that which is immoderate will crush the spirit.
5 愚なる者はその父の訓をかろんず 誡命をまもる者は賢者なり
A fool laughs at the discipline of his father. But whoever preserves rebukes will become astute. In abundant justice, there is very great virtue. But the intentions of the impious will be eradicated.
6 義者の家には多くの資財あり 惡者の利潤には擾累あり
The house of the just has very great strength. And in the fruits of the impious, there is disorder.

The way of the impious is an abomination to the Lord. Whoever pursues justice is loved by him.
10 道をはなるる者には厳しき懲治あり 譴責を惡む者は死ぬべし
Doctrine is evil to those who abandon the way of life. Whoever hates correction shall die.
Hell and perdition are in the sight of the Lord. How much more the hearts of the sons of men! (Sheol h7585)

The heart of the wise seeks doctrine. And the mouth of the foolish feeds on ignorance.
15 艱難者の日はことごとく惡く 心の懽べる者は恒に酒宴にあり

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures and dissatisfaction.
17 蔬菜をくらひて互に愛するは肥たる牛を食ひて互に恨むるに愈る
It is better to be called to vegetables with charity, than to a fatted calf with hatred.
18 憤ほり易きものは争端をおこし 怒をおそくする者は争端をとどむ
A short-tempered man provokes conflicts. Whoever is patient tempers those who are stirred up.

Folly is gladness to the foolish. And the prudent man sets his own steps in order.

A man rejoices in the verdict of his own mouth. And a word at the right time is best.
The path of life is for the wise above, so that he may turn away from the end of Hell. (Sheol h7585)
25 ヱホバはたかぶる者の家をほろぼし 寡婦の地界をさだめたまふ
The Lord will demolish the house of the arrogant. And He will make firm the borders of the widow.

27 不義の利をむさぼる者はその家をわづらはせ 賄賂をにくむ者は活ながらふべし
