Sapientia humiliati exaltabit caput illius, et in medio magnatorum consedere illum faciet.
卑微之人的智慧必使他抬起頭來,使他坐在權貴之中。
The wisdom of the lowly will lift up his head, And make him to sit in the midst of great men.
11:2
Non laudes virum in specie sua, neque spernas hominem in visu suo.
不要因人的美貌而稱讚他,也不要因人的外表而厭惡他。

The bee is little among such as fly; And her fruit is the chief of sweetmeats.
11:4
In vestitu ne glorieris umquam, nec in die honoris tui extollaris : quoniam mirabilia opera Altissimi solius, et gloriosa, et absconsa, et invisa opera illius.
不要因身穿華服而誇口,也不要在尊榮之日高抬自己;因為主的作為奇妙,他的工作向人是隱藏的。
Glory not in the putting on of raiment, And exalt not yourself in the day of honor; For the works of the Lord are wonderful, And his works are hidden among men.
11:5
Multi tyranni sederunt in throno : et insuspicabilis portavit diadema.

許多權貴大大受辱,有名望的人被交在別人手中。
Many mighty men have been greatly disgraced; And men of renown have been delivered into other men’s hands.
11:7
Priusquam interroges, ne vituperes quemquam : et cum interrogaveris, corripe juste.

Priusquam audias, ne respondeas verbum : et in medio sermonum ne adjicias loqui.
未聽完之前,不要回答;別人說話之間,不要插嘴。
Answer not before you have heard; And interrupt not in the midst of speech.
11:9
De ea re quæ te non molestat, ne certeris : et in judicio peccantium ne consistas.
與你無關的事,不要爭辯;罪人受審判時,不要與他們同坐。
Strive not in a matter that concerns you not; And where sinners judge, sit not you with them.
11:10
Fili, ne in multis sint actus tui : et si dives fueris, non eris immunis a delicto. Si enim secutus fueris, non apprehendes : et non effugies, si præcucurreris.
孩子啊,不要被許多事務纏身;你若多管閒事,就難逃刑罰;你若追趕,也追不上;你即便逃跑,也逃脫不了。
My son, be not busy about many matters: For if you meddle much, you will not be unpunished; And if you pursue, you will not overtake; And you will not escape by fleeing.

Est homo laborans et festinans, et dolens : impius, et tanto magis non abundabit.

11:12
Est homo marcidus egens recuperatione, plus deficiens virtute, et abundans paupertate :
有人遲緩無力,需要扶助,缺乏力量,滿是貧窮;主的眼目卻眷顧他賜福於他,使他從卑微中被扶起。
There is one that is sluggish, and has need of help, Lacking in strength, and that abounds in poverty; And the eyes of the Lord looked upon him for good, And he set him up from his low estate,
11:13
et oculus Dei respexit illum in bono, et erexit eum ab humilitate ipsius, et exaltavit caput ejus : et mirati sunt in illo multi, et honoraverunt Deum.
主使他抬起頭來,許多人都因他而驚奇。
And lifted up his head; And many marveled at him.
11:14
Bona et mala, vita et mors, paupertas et honestas, a Deo sunt :
福與禍、生與死、貧窮與富足,都是出於主。
Good things and evil, life and death, Poverty and riches, are from the Lord.
11:15
sapientia, et disciplina, et scientia legis, apud Deum : dilectio, et viæ bonorum, apud ipsum.

There is that waxes rich by his wariness and pinching, And this is the portion of his reward:
11:19
In eo quod dicit : Inveni requiem mihi, et nunc manducabo de bonis meis solus :
當他說:『我已找到安息,如今可以享用我的財物了』,他卻不知道時光將要過去,他必把這些留給別人而死去。
When he says, I have found rest, And now will I eat of my goods; Yet he knows not what time will pass, And he will leave them to others, and die.
11:20
et nescit quod tempus præteriet, et mors appropinquet, et relinquat omnia aliis, et morietur.
你要堅守你的約,常在其中往來,並在你的工作上漸漸變老。
Be stedfast in your covenant, and be conversant therein, And wax old in your work.
11:21
Sta in testamento tuo, et in illo colloquere, et in opere mandatorum tuorum veterasce.
不要驚奇罪人的作為,卻要信靠主,恆守你的勞苦;因為在主眼中,使窮人忽然致富乃是輕而易舉的事。
Marvel not at the works of a sinner; But trust the Lord, and abide in your labor: For it is an easy thing in the sight of the Lord swiftly on the sudden to make a poor man rich.

11:23
Facile est enim in oculis Dei subito honestare pauperem.
不要說:『我還需要什麼?從今以後我還能有什麼好處?』
Say not, What use is there of me? And what from henceforth will my good things be?
11:24
Benedictio Dei in mercedem justi festinat, et in hora veloci processus illius fructificat.
不要說:『我已經夠了,從今以後還會有什麼災禍臨到我?』
Say not, I have sufficient, And from henceforth what harm will happen to me?
11:25
Ne dicas : Quid est mihi opus ? et quæ erunt mihi ex hoc bona ?
順境之日,人忘記了禍患;患難之日,人也不記念福樂。
In the day of good things there is a forgetfulness of evil things; And in the day of evil things a man will not remember things that are good.
11:26
Ne dicas : Sufficiens mihi sum : et quid ex hoc pessimabor ?
因為在主眼中,在人死亡之日按他所行的報應他,乃是輕而易舉的事。
For it is an easy thing in the sight of the Lord To reward a man in the day of death according to his ways.
11:27
In die bonorum ne immemor sis malorum, et in die malorum ne immemor sis bonorum :
片刻的苦難使人忘卻安逸,人到了結局,他的作為便被顯露。
The affliction of an hour causes forgetfulness of delight; And in the last end of a man is the revelation of his deeds.
11:28
quoniam facile est coram Deo in die obitus retribuere unicuique secundum vias suas.
人未死之前,不要稱他為有福,因為人要在他的兒女身上被人認識。
Call no man blessed before his death; And a man will be known in his children.
11:29
Malitia horæ oblivionem facit luxuriæ magnæ, et in fine hominis denudatio operum illius.
不要把每個人都領進你的家,因為詭詐之人的詭計甚多。
Bring not every man into your house; For many are the plots of the deceitful man.
11:30
Ante mortem ne laudes hominem quemquam : quoniam in filiis suis agnoscitur vir.
驕傲人的心如同籠中的誘鳥,又像窺探的人,伺機看你傾倒。
As a decoy partridge in a cage, so is the heart of a proud man; And as one that is a spy, he looks upon your falling.
11:31
Non omnem hominem inducas in domum tuam : multæ enim sunt insidiæ dolosi.
因為他埋伏著要將美善之事化為禍患,並在可稱讚的事上加上污點。
For he lies in wait to turn things that are good into evil; And in things that are praiseworthy he will lay blame.
11:32
Sicut enim eructant præcordia fœtentium, et sicut perdix inducitur in caveam, et ut caprea in laqueum : sic et cor superborum, et sicut prospector videns casum proximi sui.
一粒火星能燃起一堆炭火,罪人也埋伏著要流人的血。
From a spark of fire a heap of many coals is kindled; And a sinful man lies in wait for blood.
11:33
Bona enim in mala convertens insidiatur, et in electis imponet maculam.
要提防作惡的人,因為他謀劃邪惡之事,免得他使你永遠蒙受污名。
Take heed of an evil-doer, for he contriveth wicked things; Lest haply he bring upon you blame forever.
11:34
A scintilla una augetur ignis, et ab uno doloso augetur sanguis : homo vero peccator sanguini insidiatur.
你若收留外人住宿,他必以紛擾攪亂你,使你與自己的親人疏遠。
Receive a stranger into your house, and he will distract you with brawls, And estrange you from your own.
