6:1
Fili mi, si spoponderis pro amico tuo, defixisti apud extraneum manum tuam :
My son, if you have become collateral for your neighbor, if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger,
我兒,你若為朋友作保, 替外人擊掌,
6:2
illaqueatus es verbis oris tui, et captus propriis sermonibus.
you are trapped by the words of your mouth; you are ensnared with the words of your mouth.
你就被口中的話語纏住, 被嘴裏的言語捉住。

Fac ergo quod dico, fili mi, et temetipsum libera, quia incidisti in manum proximi tui. Discurre, festina, suscita amicum tuum.
Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, since you have come into the hand of your neighbor. Go, humble yourself. Press your plea with your neighbor.
我兒,你既落在朋友手中, 就當這樣行才可救自己: 你要自卑,去懇求你的朋友。
6:4
Ne dederis somnum oculis tuis, nec dormitent palpebrae tuae.
Give no sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids.
不要容你的眼睛睡覺; 不要容你的眼皮打盹。

Vade ad formicam, o piger, et considera vias ejus, et disce sapientiam.
Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;

Usquequo, piger, dormies ? quando consurges e somno tuo ?
How long will you sleep, sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?
懶惰人哪,你要睡到幾時呢? 你何時睡醒呢?
6:10
Paululum dormies, paululum dormitabis, paululum conseres manus ut dormias ;
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep—
再睡片時,打盹片時, 抱着手躺臥片時,
6:11
et veniet tibi quasi viator egestas, et pauperies quasi vir armatus. Si vero impiger fueris, veniet ut fons messis tua, et egestas longe fugiet a te.
so your poverty will come as a robber, and your scarcity as an armed man.
你的貧窮就必如強盜速來, 你的缺乏彷彿拿兵器的人來到。

pravo corde machinatur malum, et omni tempore jurgia seminat.
in whose heart is perverseness, who devises evil continually, who always sows discord.
心中乖僻, 常設惡謀, 布散紛爭。

Huic extemplo veniet perditio sua, et subito conteretur, nec habebit ultra medicinam.
Therefore his calamity will come suddenly. He will be broken suddenly, and that without remedy.
所以,災難必忽然臨到他身; 他必頃刻敗壞,無法可治。

oculos sublimes, linguam mendacem, manus effundentes innoxium sanguinem,
arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,

6:23
Quia mandatum lucerna est, et lex lux, et via vitae increpatio disciplinae :
