1:20 智慧在街市上呼喊,在广场上发声。
Wisdom cries out in the street; She utters her voice in the open squares.
1:21 在热闹街头喊叫,在城门口,在城里发出言语,说,
At the head of the tumultuous street she cries; At the entrance of the gates in the city she utters her sayings:
1:22 你们愚蒙人喜爱愚昧,亵慢人喜欢亵慢,愚顽人恨恶知识,要到几时呢?
How long, O simple ones, will you love simpleness, And will scoffers delight themselves in scoffing, And will fools hate knowledge?
1:23 你们当因我的责备回转;看哪,我要将我的灵浇灌你们,将我的话指示你们。
Turn yourselves at my reproof-Immediately I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you.
1:24 我呼唤,你们拒绝;我伸手,无人理会,
Because I called and you refused; I stretched out my hand and no one heeded,
1:25 反倒轻弃我一切的劝戒,不肯受我的责备。
And you neglected all my counsel And would have none of my reproof;
1:26 你们遭灾难,我也必发笑;惊恐临到你们,我必嗤笑。
I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when what you dread comes,
1:27 惊恐临到你们,好像狂风;灾难来到,如同旋风;急难困苦临到你们身上。
When what you dread comes like a storm, And your calamity comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you.
1:28 那时,他们必呼求我,我却不答应;恳切的寻找我,却寻不见。
Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me.
1:29 因为他们恨恶知识,不选择敬畏耶和华,
Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of Jehovah,
1:30 不肯受我的劝戒,藐视我一切的责备,
And would have none of my counsel And despised all my reproof;
1:31 所以他们必吃自己行径的果子,饱尝自设的计谋。
They shall eat of the fruit of their own way And be filled with their own devices.
1:32 愚蒙人背道,必杀己身;愚顽人安逸,必灭己命。
For the turning away of the simple will kill them, And the prosperity of the foolish will cause them to perish;
1:33 惟有听从我的,必安然居住,得享安宁,免受灾祸的惊恐。
But he who listens to me will dwell securely And will live at ease, without the dread of evil.
