17伊棄sak少年ê時ê匹配，bōe記得伊ê上帝ê約。I khì-sak siàu-liân ê sî ê phit-phòe, Bōe kì-tit i ê Siōng-tè ê iok.

18因為伊ê厝ǹg tī死無，伊ê路透陰府。In-ūi i ê chhù ǹg tī sí-bô, I ê lō͘ thàu im-hú.

20智慧beh hō͘你行好人ê路，守義人ê路。Tì-hūi beh hō͘ lí kiâⁿ hó-lâng ê lō͘, Siú gī-lâng ê lō͘.

21因為正直ê人beh khiā起地面，完全ê人也beh留tī-hia。In-ūi chèng-ti̍t ê lâng beh khiā-khí tōe-bīn, Oân-choân ê lâng iā beh lâu tī-hia.

22獨獨pháiⁿ人beh tùi地面剪除，奸詐ê人beh tùi hia拔-出。To̍k-to̍k pháiⁿ-lâng beh tùi tōe-bīn chián-tû, kan-chà ê lâng beh tùi hia pu̍ih-chhut.

12因為耶和華責備祂所疼ê，親像老父責備伊所歡喜ê kiáⁿ。In-ūi Iâ-hô-hoa chek-pī I só͘ thiàⁿ--ê, Chhin-chhiūⁿ lāu-pē chek-pī i só͘ hoaⁿ-hí ê kiáⁿ.

18對tī持守伊ê人，是做活命樹，擒tiâu伊ê，ta̍k-ê有福氣。Tùi-tī chhî-siú i ê lâng, sī chòe oa̍h-miā chhiū, Khîⁿ-tiâu i ê, ta̍k-ê ū hok-khì.

19耶和華用智慧建立地，用聰明安置天。Iâ-hô-hoa ēng tì-hūi kiàn-li̍p tōe, Ēng chhang-miâ an-tì thiⁿ.

20用伊ê知識hō͘深淵裂開，穹蒼落露水。Ēng I ê tì-sek hō͘ chhim-ian li̍h-khui, Kiong-chhong lo̍h lō͘-chúi.

21我ê kiáⁿ，tio̍h執守真ê智慧kap計畫；M̄-thang hō͘ in離開你ê目睭。Góa ê kiáⁿ, tio̍h chip-siú chin ê tì-hūi kap kè-e̍k; M̄-thang hō͘ in lī-khui lí ê ba̍k-chiu.

22Án-ni in beh tī你ê靈魂做活命；Tī你ê頷頸做súi ê裝飾。Án-ni in beh tī lí ê lêng-hûn chòe oa̍h-miā; Tī lí ê ām-kún chòe súi ê chng-thāⁿ.

24你倒teh，的確無驚；你倒teh，beh真好睏。Lí tó-teh, tek-khak bô kiaⁿ; Lí tó-teh, beh chin hó-khùn.

25忽然來ê驚惶，你m̄免驚；pháiⁿ人所tú-tio̍h ê敗壞，你也m̄免驚。Hut-jiân lâi ê kiaⁿ-hiâⁿ, lí m̄-bián kiaⁿ; Pháiⁿ-lâng só͘ tú-tio̍h ê pāi-hoāi, lí iā m̄-bián kiaⁿ.

26因為耶和華beh做你所óa靠ê；祂beh保守你ê腳無陷落羅網。In-ūi Iâ-hô-hoa beh chòe lí só͘ óa-khò--ê; I beh pó-siú lí ê kha bô hām-lo̍h lô-bāng.

27你ê手若有行好ê氣力，m̄-thang推辭，就tio̍h the̍h hō͘ hit-ê應該得tio̍h ê人。Lí ê chhiú nā ū kiâⁿ-hó ê khùi-la̍t, m̄-thang the-sî, Chiū tio̍h the̍h hō͘ hit-ê eng-kai tit-tio̍h ê lâng.

31M̄-thang欣羨強暴ê人；亦m̄-thang揀伊所行ê路。M̄-thang him-soān kiông-pō ê lâng; Ia̍h m̄-thang kéng i só͘ kiâⁿ ê lō͘.

32因為橫逆ê人是耶和華所厭惡；正直ê人伊kap伊親密。In-ūi hêng-ge̍k ê lâng sī Iâ-hô-hoa só͘ iàm-ò͘ⁿ; Chèng-ti̍t ê lâng I kap i chhin-bi̍t.

33耶和華ê咒詛到tī pháiⁿ人ê家；但是好人ê厝祂賞賜福氣hō͘伊。Iâ-hô-hoa ê chiù-chó͘ kàu tī pháiⁿ-lâng ê ke; Nā-sī hó-lâng ê chhù I siúⁿ-sù hok-khì hō͘ i.

34侮慢萬人ê，祂侮慢伊；施恩hō͘謙卑ê人。Bú-bān lâng--ê, I bú-bān i; Si-un hō͘ khiam-pi ê lâng.

35智慧ê人beh承接榮光；愚戇ê人升高也成做見笑。Tì-hūi ê lâng beh sêng-chiap êng-kng; Gû-gōng ê lâng seng-koâiⁿ iā chiâⁿ-chòe kiàn-siàu.

1Lín chiah-ê kiáⁿ ah，tio̍h聽老父ê教示；Tio̍h注意來得tio̍h明理。Lín chiah ê kiáⁿ ah, tio̍h thiaⁿ lāu-pē ê kà-sī; Tio̍h chù-ì lâi tit-tio̍h bêng-lí.

2因為我用好ê道理hō͘ lín；M̄-thang棄sak我ê法度。In-ūi góa ēng hó ê tō-lí hō͘ lín; M̄-thang khì-sak góa ê hoat-tō͘.

3我是老父ê kiáⁿ；Tī老母ê面前做伊第一疼ê幼秀kiáⁿ。Góa sī lāu-pē ê kiáⁿ; Tī lāu-bú ê bīn-chêng chòe i tē-it thiàⁿ ê iù-siù kiáⁿ.

4老父教示我，kā我講，你ê心tio̍h記tiâu我ê話，遵守我ê命令，就得tio̍h活。Lāu-pē kà-sī góa, kā góa kóng, Lí ê sim tio̍h kì-tiâu góa ê ōe, Chun-siú góa ê bēng-lēng, chiū tit-tio̍h oa̍h.

6M̄-thang棄sak智慧，伊beh保護你；Tio̍h疼伊，伊beh照顧你。M̄-thang khì-sak tì-hūi, i beh pó-hō͘ lí; Tio̍h thiàⁿ i, i beh chiàu-kò͘ lí.

7智慧是根本，tio̍h得tio̍h智慧；Tī你一切所得tio̍h ê中間，tio̍h得tio̍h聰明。Tì-hūi sī kun-pún, tio̍h tit-tio̍h tì-hūi; Tī lí it-chhè só͘ tit-tio̍h ê tiong-kan, tio̍h tit-tio̍h chhang-miâ.

8你若尊重伊，伊beh hō͘你升高；你若戀慕伊，伊就hō͘你榮光。Lí nā chun-tiōng i, i beh hō͘ lí seng-koâiⁿ; Lí nā loân-bō͘ i, i chiū hō͘ lí êng-kng.

9伊beh用súi ê帽戴tī你ê頭殼；將榮光ê冕旒hō͘你。I beh ēng súi ê bō tì tī lí ê thâu-khak; Chiong êng-kng ê bián-liû hō͘ lí.

10我ê kiáⁿ，tio̍h聽來接納我ê話，就beh食長歲壽。Góa ê kiáⁿ, tio̍h thiaⁿ lâi chiap-la̍p góa ê ōe, Chiū beh chia̍h tn̂g hè-siū.

11我已經指示你智慧ê路，引chhōa你行正直ê路徑。Góa í-keng chí-sī lí tì-hūi ê lō͘, Ín-chhōa lí kiâⁿ chèng-ti̍t ê lō͘-kèng.

12你行ê時，無致到阻礙；你走，亦無致到tio̍h-tak。Lí kiâⁿ ê sî, bô tì-kàu chó͘-gāi; Lí cháu, ia̍h bô tì-kàu tio̍h-tak.

13Tio̍h執守教示，m̄-thang放鬆；Tio̍h謹慎守伊，因為伊是你ê活命。Tio̍h chip-siú kà-sī, m̄-thang pàng-sang; Tio̍h kín-sīn siú i, in-ūi i sī lí ê oa̍h-miā.

14兇惡ê人ê路莫得入；pháiⁿ人ê路莫得行。Hiong-ok ê lâng ê lō͘ bo̍h-tit ji̍p; Pháiⁿ-lâng ê lō͘ bo̍h-tit kiâⁿ.

15Tio̍h閃避伊，m̄-thang tùi hia過；Tio̍h oa̍t走離開伊，進前去。Tio̍h siám-pī i, m̄-thang tùi hia kè; Tio̍h oa̍t-cháu lī-khui i, chìn-chêng khì.

16因為伊若無害人，就bōe睏得；若無hō͘人跋倒，就睏bōe落眠。In-ūi i nā bô hāi lâng, chiū bōe khùn-tit; Nā bô hō͘ lâng poa̍h-tó, chiū khùn bōe lo̍h-bîn.

17因為in tùi兇惡得tio̍h食餅；Tùi強暴得tio̍h lim酒。In-ūi in tùi hiong-ok tit-tio̍h chia̍h-piáⁿ; Tùi kiông-pō tit-tio̍h lim-chiú.
