Giguet(i) 1 ¶ Écoutez, enfants, l’enseignement d’un père, et soyez attentifs à connaître la sagesse. 2 Car je vous fais un cadeau précieux; ne délaissez pont ma loi. 3 J’ai été un fils docile à mon père, et cher aux yeux de ma mère. 4 Ils m’ont instruit, disantQue nos discours soient fixés dans ton cœur; garde nos préceptes; ne les oublie pas. 5 Ne méprise pas les paroles de ma bouche. 6 Ne les abandonne point, et elles s’attacheront à toi; aime-les, et elles te garderont. 7 8 Entoure-les de palissades, et elles t’exalteront; honore-les, afin qu’elles t’embrassent; 9 afin qu’elles mettent sur ta tête une couronne de grâces, et te couvrent d’une couronne de délices. 10 Écoute, mon fils, et recueille mes paroles, et les années de ta vie se multiplieront, autant que se multiplieront les voies de ta vie. 11 Car je t’enseignerai les voies de la sagesse, et je te ferai cheminer dans les droits sentiers. 12 Si tu marches, rien n’entravera tes pas; si tu cours, tu ne sentiras point la fatigue. 13 Retiens mes instructions, ne les néglige point; mais garde-les en toi-même toute ta vie. 14 ¶ Ne va pas sur la voie des impies; ne porte point envie aux voies des pervers.

Perhatikanlah itu, maka engkau akan menjadi arif. 2 Yang kuajarkan kepadamu ini baik, sebab itu janganlah kau meremehkannya. 3 Ketika aku masih kecil, anak tunggal orang tuaku, 4 aku diajar oleh ayahku. Ia berkata, "Ingatlah akan nasihat-nasihatku, janganlah sekali-kali kau melupakannya. Jalankanlah petunjuk-petunjukku, supaya hidupmu bahagia. 5 Jadilah bijaksana dan cerdas! Ingatlah selalu akan nasihat-nasihatku dan janganlah membuangnya." 6 Hargailah hikmat, maka hikmat akan melindungimu; cintailah dia maka ia akan menjaga engkau agar tetap aman. 7 Hal terpenting yang harus pertama-tama kaulakukan ialah berusaha menjadi bijaksana. Apa pun yang kaukejar, yang terutama ialah berusahalah untuk mendapat pengertian. 8 Junjunglah hikmat, maka engkau akan ditinggikan olehnya. Rangkullah dia, maka ia akan mendatangkan kehormatan kepadamu. 9 Ia akan memberikan kepadamu karangan bunga yang elok untuk menjadi mahkotamu. 10 Dengarkan aku, anakku! Perhatikanlah baik-baik nasihat-nasihatku, maka umurmu akan panjang. 11 Aku sudah mengajarkan hikmat kepadamu dan menunjukkan cara hidup yang benar. 12 Kalau engkau hidup demikian, maka engkau tidak akan terhalang pada waktu berjalan, dan tak akan tersandung pada waktu berlari. 13 Ingatlah selalu akan ajaran yang sudah kauterima daripadaku. Jagalah itu baik-baik, sebab dengan ajaran itu hidupmu akan berhasil. 14 Jangan menuruti cara hidup orang jahat, dan jangan meniru perbuatan mereka.

Būkite atidūs, kad įgytumėte supratimo. 2 Aš duodu jums gerą mokymą, neapleiskite mano įstatymo. 3 Aš buvau tėvo sūnus, mylimas ir vienintelis savo motinos akyse. 4 Jis mokė mane ir sakė: “Išlaikyk širdyje mano žodžius, laikykis mano įsakymų ir būsi gyvas. 5 Įsigyk išminties, įsigyk supratimo. Neužmiršk mano burnos žodžių ir nenukrypk nuo jų. 6 Neapleisk išminties, ir ji globos tave; mylėk ją, ir ji saugos tave. 7 Svarbiausia yra išmintis; įsigyk išmintį ir už visą savo turtą įsigyk supratimą. 8 Vertink ją, ir ji išaukštins tave. Apglėbk ją, ir ji suteiks tau garbę. 9 Ji vainikuos tavo galvą malone, duos tau šlovės karūną. 10 Klausyk, mano sūnau, ir priimk mano žodžius, kad ilgai gyventum. 11 Aš nurodau tau išminties kelią, vedu tiesiais takais. 12 Kai jais eisi, tavo žingsniai nebus varžomi ir bėgdamas nesuklupsi. 13 Tvirtai laikykis pamokymo ir neapleisk jo; saugok jį, nes tai yra tavo gyvybė. 14 Neik nedorėlių taku ir nevaikščiok piktųjų keliu.
PBG(i) 1 Słuchajcie synowie! ćwiczenia ojcowskiego, a pilnujcie, abyście umieli roztropność; 2 Albowiem wam naukę dobrą daję; zakonu mego nie opuszczajcie. 3 Gdybym był młodziuchnym synem u ojca mego, i jedynakiem u matki mojej, 4 On mię uczył, powiadając mi: Niech się chwyci powieści moich serce twoje, strzeż przytkazań moich, a będziesz żył. 5 Nabywaj mądrości, nabywaj roztropności; nie zapominaj, ani się uchylaj od powieści ust moich. 6 Nie opuszczaj jej, a będzie cię strzegła; rozmiłuj się jej, a zachowa cię. 7 Początkiem wszystkiego jest mądrość, nabywajże mądrości, a za wzystkę majętność twoję nabywaj roztropności. 8 Wywyższaj ją, a wywyższy cię, rozsławi cię, gdy ją przyjmiesz. 9 Przyda głowie twojej wdzięczności, koroną ozdoby obdarzy cię. 10 Słuchaj, synu mój! a przyjmij powieści moje, a rozmnożąć lata żywota. 11 Drogi mądrości nauczam cię; po ścieszkach prostych wiodę cię; 12 Któremi gdy pójdziesz, nie będzie ściśniony chód twój; a jeźli pobieżysz, nie potkniesz sií. 13 Przyjmij őwiczenie, nie puszczaj się go, strzeż go; albowiem ono jest żywotem twoim. 14 Ścieszką niepobożnych nie chodź, a nie udawaj się drogą złośliwych.
Portuguese(i) 1 Ouvi, filhos, a instrução do pai, e estai atentos para conhecerdes o entendimento. 2 Pois eu vos dou boa doutrina; não abandoneis o meu ensino. 3 Quando eu era filho aos pés de meu, pai, tenro e único em estima diante de minha mãe, 4 ele me ensinava, e me dizia: Retenha o teu coração as minhas palavras; guarda os meus mandamentos, e vive. 5 Adquire a sabedoria, adquire o entendimento; não te esqueças nem te desvies das palavras da minha boca. 6 Não a abandones, e ela te guardará; ama-a, e ela te preservará. 7 A sabedoria é a coisa principal; adquire, pois, a sabedoria; sim, com tudo o que possuis adquire o entendimento. 8 Estima-a, e ela te exaltará; se a abraçares, ela te honrará. 9 Ela dará à tua cabeça uma grinalda de graça; e uma coroa de glória te entregará. 10 Ouve, filho meu, e aceita as minhas palavras, para que se multipliquem os anos da tua vida. 11 Eu te ensinei o caminho da sabedoria; guiei-te pelas veredas da retidão. 12 Quando andares, não se embaraçarão os teus passos; e se correres, não tropeçarás. 13 Apega-te à instrução e não a largues; guarda-a, porque ela é a tua vida. 14 Não entres na vereda dos ímpios, nem andes pelo caminho dos maus.
Romanian(i) 1 Ascultaţi, fiilor, învăţătura unui tată, şi luaţi aminte, ca să pricepeţi; 2 căci eu vă dau sfaturi bune: nu lepădaţi învăţătura mea. 3 Căci cînd eram încă fiu la tatăl meu, şi fiu gingaş şi singur la mama mea, 4 el mă învăţa atunci, şi-mi zicea:,,Păstrează bine în inima ta cuvintele mele, păzeşte învăţăturile mele, şi vei trăi! 5 Dobîndeşte înţelepciune, dobîndeşte pricepere; nu uita cuvintele gurii mele, şi nu te abate dela ele. 6 N'o părăsi, şi ea te va păzi; iubeşte -o, şi te va ocroti! 7 Iată începutul înţelepciunii: dobîndeşte înţelepciunea, şi cu tot ce ai, dobîndeşte priceperea. 8 Înalţă -o, şi ea te va înălţa; ea va fi slava ta, dacă o vei îmbrăţişa. 9 Ea îţi va pune pe cap o cunună plăcută, te va împodobi cu o strălucită cunună împărătească. 10 Ascultă, fiule, primeşte cuvintele mele, şi anii vieţii tale se vor înmulţi. 11 Eu îţi arăt calea înţelepciunii, te povăţuiesc pe cărările neprihănirii. 12 Cînd vei umbla, pasul nu-ţi va fi stînjenit; şi cînd vei alerga, nu te vei poticni. 13 Ţine învăţătura, n'o lăsa din mînă; păstrează -o, căci ea este viaţa ta. 14 Nu intra pe cărarea celor răi, şi nu umbla pe calea celor nelegiuiţi!
Ukrainian(i) 1 Послухайте, діти, напучення батькового, і прислухайтеся, щоб навчитися розуму, 2 бо даю я вам добру науку: закона мого не кидайте, 3 бо сином у батька свого я був, пещений й єдиний у неньки своєї. 4 І навчав він мене, і мені говорив: Нехай держиться серце твоє моїх слів, стережи мої заповіді та й живи! 5 Здобудь мудрість, здобудь собі розум, не забудь, і не цурайся слів моїх уст, 6 не кидай її й вона буде тебе стерегти! Кохай ти її й вона буде тебе пильнувати! 7 Початок премудрости мудрість здобудь, а за ввесь свій маєток здобудь собі розуму! 8 Тримай її високо і підійме тебе, ушанує тебе, як її ти пригорнеш: 9 вона дасть голові твоїй гарний вінок, пишну корону тобі подарує! 10 Послухай, мій сину, й бери ти слова мої, і помножаться роки твойого життя, 11 дороги премудрости вчу я тебе, стежками прямими проваджу тебе: 12 коли підеш, то крок твій не буде тісний, а коли побіжиш не спіткнешся! 13 Міцно тримайся напучування, не лишай, його стережи, воно бо життя твоє! 14 На стежку безбожних не йди, і не ходи на дорогу лихих,
