    [bbe]  Do not make a noise about tomorrow, for you are not certain what a day's outcome may be.
27:2 [hgb]  要 别 人 夸 奖 你 ， 不 可 用 口 自 夸 。 等 外 人 称 赞 你 ， 不 可 用 嘴 自 称 。 
    [kjv]  Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
    [bbe]  Let another man give you praise, and not your mouth; one who is strange to you, and not your lips.
27:3 [hgb]  石 头 重 ， 沙 土 沉 ， 愚 妄 人 的 恼 怒 ， 比 这 两 样 更 重 。

    [bbe]  A stone has great weight, and sand is crushing; but the wrath of the foolish is of greater weight than these.
27:4 [hgb]  忿 怒 为 残 忍 ， 怒 气 为 狂 澜 ， 惟 有 嫉 妒 ， 谁 能 敌 得 住 呢 ？ 
    [kjv]  Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?
    [bbe]  Wrath is cruel, and angry feeling an overflowing stream; but who does not give way before envy?
27:5 [hgb]  当 面 的 责 备 ， 强 如 背 地 的 爱 情 。 
    [kjv]  Open rebuke is better than secret love.
    [bbe]  Better is open protest than love kept secret.
27:6 [hgb]  朋 友 加 的 伤 痕 ， 出 于 忠 诚 ， 仇 敌 连 连 亲 嘴 ， 却 是 多 余 。 
    [kjv]  Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
    [bbe]  The wounds of a friend are given in good faith, but the kisses of a hater are false.

    [bbe]  The full man has no use for honey, but to the man in need of food every bitter thing is sweet.
27:8 [hgb]  人 离 本 处 飘 流 ， 好 像 雀 鸟 离 窝 游 飞 。 
    [kjv]  As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
    [bbe]  Like a bird wandering from the place of her eggs is a man wandering from his station.
27:9 [hgb]  膏 油 与 香 料 ， 使 人 心 喜 悦 。 朋 友 诚 实 的 劝 教 ， 也 是 如 此 甘 美 。 
    [kjv]  Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
    [bbe]  Oil and perfume make glad the heart, and the wise suggestion of a friend is sweet to the soul.
27:10 [hgb]  你 的 朋 友 ， 和 父 亲 的 朋 友 ， 你 都 不 可 离 弃 。 你 遭 难 的 日 子 ， 不 要 上 弟 兄 的 家 去 。 相 近 的 邻 舍 ， 强 如 远 方 的 弟 兄 。 
    [kjv]  Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
    [bbe]  Do not give up your friend and your father's friend; and do not go into your brother's house in the day of your trouble: better is a neighbour who is near than a brother far off.
27:11 [hgb]  我 儿 ， 你 要 作 智 慧 人 ， 好 叫 我 的 心 欢 喜 ， 使 我 可 以 回 答 那 讥 诮 我 的 人 。 
    [kjv]  My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.
    [bbe]  My son, be wise and make my heart glad, so that I may give back an answer to him who puts me to shame.
27:12 [hgb]  通 达 人 见 祸 藏 躲 。 愚 蒙 人 前 往 受 害 。 
    [kjv]  A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

27:13 [hgb]  谁 为 生 人 作 保 ， 就 拿 谁 的 衣 服 。 谁 为 外 女 作 保 ， 谁 就 承 当 。 
    [kjv]  Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
    [bbe]  Take a man's clothing if he makes himself responsible for a strange man, and get an undertaking from him who gives his word for strange men.
