箴言灵修:4:1-9:高举智慧,智慧必使你高升

 箴言4:1-9 1 众子啊,要听父亲的教训,留心得知聪明。 2 因我所给你们的是好教训;不可离弃我的法则。 3 我在父亲面前为孝子,在母亲眼中为独一的娇儿。 4 父亲教训我说:你心要存记我的言语,遵守我的命令,便得存活。 5 要得智慧,要得聪明,不可忘记,也不可偏离我口中的言语。 6 不可离弃智慧,智慧就护卫你;要爱他,他就保守你。 7 智慧为首;所以,要得智慧。在你一切所得之内必得聪明 。 8 高举智慧,他就使你高升;怀抱智慧,他就使你尊荣。 9 他必将华冠加在你头上,把荣冕交给你。 Proverb 4:1-9 1 Hear, O sons, a father’s instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain[1] insight, 2 for I give you good precepts; do not forsake my teaching. 3 When I was a son with my father, tender, the only one in the sight of my mother, 4 he taught me and said to me, “Let your heart hold fast my words; keep my commandments, and live. 5 Get wisdom; get insight; do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you. 7 The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight. 8 Prize her highly, and she will exalt you; she will honor you if you embrace her. 9 She will place on your head a graceful garland; she will bestow on y...

箴言灵修:3:21-35:智慧人生的写照

  箴言3:21-35 21我儿,要谨守真智慧的谋略,不可使她离开你的眼目。 22这样,她必作你的生命,颈项的美饰。 23你就坦然行路,不至碰脚。 24你躺下,必不惧怕;你躺卧,睡得香甜。 25忽然来的惊恐,不要害怕,恶人遭毁灭,也不要恐惧, 26因为耶和华是你所倚靠的,祂必保守你的脚不陷入网罗。 27你手若有行善的力量,不可推辞,就当向那应得的人施行。 28你那里若有现成的,不可对邻舍说:“去吧!明天再来,我必给你。” 29你的邻舍既在你附近安居,你不可设计害他。 30人未曾加害与你,不可无故与他相争。 31不可嫉妒强暴的人,也不可选择他所行的路, 32因为乖僻人为耶和华所憎恶,正直人为他所亲密。 33耶和华咒诅恶人的家庭,赐福与义人的居所。 34他讥诮那好讥诮的人,赐恩给谦卑的人。 35智慧人必承受尊荣,愚昧人高升也成为羞辱。 Proverbs 3:21–35 [21] My son, do not lose sight of these—,  keep sound wisdom and discretion, [22] and they will be life for your soul,  and adornment for your neck. [23] Then you will walk on your way securely,  and your foot will not stumble. [24] If you lie down, you will not be afraid;  when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. [25] Do not be afraid of sudden terror  or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes, [26] for the LORD will be your confidence  and will keep your foot from being caught. [27] Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,  when it is in your power ...

箴言灵修:3:13-20:智慧的价值

  箴言3:13-20 13得智慧、得聪明的,这人便为有福。 14因为得智慧胜过得银子,其利益强如精金, 15比珍珠宝贵,你一切所喜爱的,都不足与比较。 16她右手有长寿,左手有富贵。 17她的道是安乐,她的路全是平安。 18她与持守她的作生命树,持定她的俱各有福。 19耶和华以智慧立地,以聪明定天, 20以知识使深渊裂开,使天空滴下甘露。 Proverb 3:13-20 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed. The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens; by his knowledge the deeps broke open, and the clouds drop down the dew. 灵修分享: 这世上的人在追求福气,但一般上都在寻找物质上的福气,而要寻获这些福气,一般上都可以使用金钱去买到,例如,要买舒适的住所,要买豪华的房车,可是,箴言的作者提醒我们,更有福的,不是得着金银,而是得着智慧。 这里所谓的智慧,是以敬畏耶和华为基础,而不是世上的知识和谋略。其实这世上的一切都是上帝所造的,所以,一些人因为可掌握一些特别的技能,就成为某个领域的专...

  箴 1:20-33 20 智慧在街市上呼喊,在宽阔处发声, 21 在热闹街头喊叫,在城门口,在城中发出言语, 22 说:你们愚昧人喜爱愚昧,亵慢人喜欢亵慢,愚顽人恨恶知识,要到几时呢? 23 你们当因我的责备回转;我要将我的灵浇灌你们,将我的话指示你们。 24 我呼唤,你们不肯听从;我伸手,无人理会; 25 反轻弃我一切的劝戒,不肯受我的责备。 26 你们遭灾难,我就发笑;惊恐临到你们,我必嗤笑。 27 惊恐临到你们,好像狂风;灾难来到,如同暴风;急难痛苦临到你们身上。 28 那时,你们必呼求我,我却不答应,恳切地寻找我,却寻不见。 29 因为,你们恨恶知识,不喜爱敬畏耶和华, 30 不听我的劝戒,藐视我一切的责备, 31 所以必吃自结的果子,充满自设的计谋。 32 愚昧人背道,必杀己身;愚顽人安逸,必害己命。 33 惟有听从我的,必安然居住,得享安静,不怕灾祸。 20  Wisdom   cries   aloud   in   the   street , in   the   markets   she   raises   her   voice ; 21    at   the   head   of   the   noisy   streets   she   cries   out ; at   the   entrance   of   the   city   gates   she   speaks : 22   “ How   long ,  O   simple   ones ,  will   you   love   being   simple ?
