第1段

我儿,你要遵守我的言语,将我的命令存记在心。
My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.

遵守我的命令,就得存活。保守我的法则,(或作指教)好像保守眼中的瞳人。
Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.

第4段

That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.

For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,

第7段

见愚昧人内,少年人中,分明有一个无知的少年人,
And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

第8段

从街上经过,走近淫妇的巷口,直往通他家的路去,
Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,

第9段

在黄昏,或晚上,或半夜,或黑暗之中,
In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:

第10段

看哪,有一个妇人来迎接他,是妓女的打扮,有诡诈的心思。
And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.

第11段

这妇人喧囔不守约束,在家里停不住脚。
(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:

第12段

有时在街市上,有时在宽阔处,或在各巷口蹲伏。
Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)

第13段

拉住那少年人,与他亲嘴,脸无羞耻对他说,
So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,

第14段

平安祭在我这里。今日才还了我所许的愿。
I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.

我以经用绣花毯子,和埃及线织的花纹布,铺了我的床。

第17段

我又用没药,沉香,桂皮,薰了我的榻。
I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

你来,我们可以饱享爱情,直到早晨。我们可以彼此亲爱欢乐。
Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.

因为我丈夫不在家,出门行远路。
For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:

第20段

他手拿银囊。必到月望才回家。
He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.

第21段

淫妇用许多巧言诱他随从,用谄媚的嘴逼他同行。
With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

第22段

少年人立刻跟随他,好像牛往宰杀之地,又像愚昧人带锁链,去受刑罚。
He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;

第23段

直等箭穿他的肝,如同雀鸟急入网罗,却不知是自丧己命。
Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.

你的心,不可偏向淫妇的道。不要入他的迷途。
Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

第27段

他的家是在阴间之路,下到死亡之宫。
Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
