9:1

θεὲ πατέρων καὶ κύριε τοῦ ἐλέους ὁ ποιήσας τὰ πάντα ἐν λόγῳ σου

O God of the fathers, and Lord who keep your mercy, Who made all things by your word;

列祖的神，施憐憫的主啊，禰曾用禰的話造成萬物，

9:2

καὶ τῇ σοφίᾳ σου κατασκευάσας ἄνθρωπον ἵνα δεσπόζῃ τῶν ὑπὸ σοῦ γενομένων κτισμάτων

And by your wisdom you formedst man, That he should have dominion over the creatures that were made by you,

又用禰的智慧塑造了人，使他管理禰所造的萬物，

9:3

καὶ διέπῃ τὸν κόσμον ἐν ὁσιότητι καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ἐν εὐθύτητι ψυχῆς κρίσιν κρίνῃ

And rule the world in holiness and righteousness, And execute judgement in uprightness of soul;

使他以聖潔公義治理世界，以正直的心施行審判；

9:4

δός μοι τὴν τῶν σῶν θρόνων πάρεδρον σοφίαν καὶ μή με ἀποδοκιμάσῃς ἐκ παίδων σου

Give me wisdom, her that sits by you on your throne; And reject me not from among your servants:

求禰將那坐在禰寶座旁的智慧賜給我，不要從禰的僕人中棄絕我；

9:5

ὅτι ἐγὼ δοῦλος σὸς καὶ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου ἄνθρωπος ἀσθενὴς καὶ ὀλιγοχρόνιος καὶ ἐλάσσων ἐν συνέσει κρίσεως καὶ νόμων

Because I am your bondman and the son of your handmaid, A man weak and short-lived, And of small power to understand judgement and laws.

因為我是禰的僕人，是禰使女的兒子，是軟弱短命的人，缺乏明白審判和律法的智慧。

9:6

κἂν γάρ τις ᾖ τέλειος ἐν υἱοῖς ἀνθρώπων τῆς ἀπὸ σοῦ σοφίας ἀπούσης εἰς οὐδὲν λογισθήσεται

For even if a man be perfect among the sons of men, Yet if the wisdom that comes from you be not with him, he will be held in no account.

因為人即使在世人中算為完全，若沒有從禰而來的智慧，也必算為無有。

9:7

σύ με προείλω βασιλέα λαοῦ σου καὶ δικαστὴν υἱῶν σου καὶ θυγατέρων

You did choose me before my kindred to be king of your people, And to do judgement for your sons and daughters.

禰揀選了我作禰百姓的王，又審判禰的兒女；

9:8

εἶπας οἰκοδομῆσαι ναὸν ἐν ὄρει ἁγίῳ σου καὶ ἐν πόλει κατασκηνώσεώς σου θυσιαστήριον μίμημα σκηνῆς ἁγίας ἣν προητοίμασας ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς

You gave command to build a sanctuary in your holy mountain, And an altar in the city of your habitation, A copy of the holy tabernacle which you prepared beforehand from the beginning.

禰吩咐在禰的聖山上建造殿宇，在禰居住的城中建立祭壇，作為禰從起初所豫備的聖幕的樣式。

9:9

καὶ μετὰ σοῦ ἡ σοφία ἡ εἰδυῖα τὰ ἔργα σου καὶ παροῦσα ὅτε ἐποίεις τὸν κόσμον καὶ ἐπισταμένη τί ἀρεστὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου καὶ τί εὐθὲς ἐν ἐντολαῖς σου

And with you is wisdom, which knows your works, And was present when you were making the world, And which understands what is pleasing in your eyes, And what is right according to your commandments.

智慧與禰同在，她曉得禰的作為，禰造世界時她也在場，她也明白甚麼在禰眼中為悅納，甚麼合乎禰的誡命。
