My son, if thou wilt receive the utterance of my commandment, and hide it with thee;
|
ΥΙΕ, ἐὰν δεξάμενος ρῆσιν ἐμῆς ἐντολῆς κρύψῃς παρὰ σεαυτῷ,
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
thine ear shall hearken to wisdom; thou shalt also apply thine heart to understanding, and shalt apply it to the instruction of thy son.
|
ὑπακούσεται σοφία τὸ οὖς σου, καὶ παραβαλεῖς καρδίαν σου εἰς σύνεσιν, παραβαλεῖς δὲ αὐτὴν ἐπὶ νουθέτησιν τῷ υἱῷ σου.
|
|
3
|
3
|
|
For if thou shalt call to wisdom, and utter thy voice for understanding;
|
ἐὰν γὰρ τὴν σοφίαν ἐπικαλέσῃ καὶ τῇ συνέσει δῷς φωνήν σου, τὴν δὲ αἴσθησιν ζητήσῃς μεγάλῃ τῇ φωνῇ,
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
and if thou shalt seek it as silver, and search diligently for it as for treasures;
|
καὶ ἐὰν ζητήσῃς αὐτὴν ὡς ἀργύριον καὶ ὡς θησαυροὺς ἐξερευνήσῃς αὐτήν,
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
|
τότε συνήσεις φόβον Κυρίου καὶ ἐπίγνωσιν Θεοῦ εὑρήσεις.
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
For the Lord gives wisdom; and from his presence come knowledge and understanding,
|
ὅτι Κύριος δίδωσι σοφίαν, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ γνῶσις καὶ σύνεσις·
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
and he treasures up salvation for them that walk uprightly: he will protect their way;
|
καὶ θησαυρίζει τοῖς κατορθοῦσι σωτηρίαν, ὑπερασπιεῖ τὴν πορείαν αὐτῶν
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
that he may guard the righteous ways: and he will preserve the way of them that fear him.
|
τοῦ φυλάξαι ὁδοὺς δικαιωμάτων καὶ ὁδὸν εὐλαβουμένων αὐτὸν διαφυλάξει.
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment; and shalt direct all thy course aright.
|
τότε συνήσεις δικαιοσύνην καὶ κρίμα καὶ κατορθώσεις πάντας ἄξονας ἀγαθούς.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
For if wisdom shall come into thine understanding, and discernment shall seem pleasing to thy soul,
|
ἐὰν γὰρ ἔλθῃ ἡ σοφία εἰς σὴν διάνοιαν, ἡ δὲ αἴσθησις τῇ σῇ ψυχῇ καλὴ εἶναι δόξῃ,
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
good counsel shall guard thee, and holy understanding shall keep thee;
|
βουλὴ καλὴ φυλάξει σε, ἔννοια δὲ ὁσία τηρήσει σε,
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
to deliver thee from the evil way, and from the man that speaks nothing faithfully.
|
ἵνα ρύσηταί σε ἀπὸ ὁδοῦ κακῆς καὶ ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς λαλοῦντος μηδὲν πιστόν.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
Alas for those who forsake right paths, to walk in ways of darkness;
|
ὦ οἱ ἐγκαταλείποντες ὁδοὺς εὐθείας τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν ὁδοῖς σκότους·
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
who rejoice in evils, and delight in wicked perverseness;
|
οἱ εὐφραινόμενοι ἐπὶ κακοῖς καὶ χαίροντες ἐπὶ διαστροφῇ κακῆ·
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
whose paths are crooked, and their courses winding;
|
ὧν αἱ τρίβοι σκολίαι καὶ καμπύλαι αἱ τροχιαὶ αὐτῶν
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
to remove thee far from the straight way, and to estrange thee from a righteous purpose. My son, let not evil counsel overtake thee,
|
τοῦ μακράν σε ποιῆσαι ἀπὸ ὁδοῦ εὐθείας καὶ ἀλλότριον τῆς δικαίας γνώμης.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
of her who has forsaken the instruction of her youth, and forgotten the covenant of God.
|
υἱέ, μή σὲ καταλάβῃ κακὴ βουλή, ἡ ἀπολιποῦσα διδασκαλίαν νεότητος καὶ διαθήκην θείαν ἐπιλελησμένη·
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
For she has fixed her house near death, and guided her wheels near Hades with the giants.
|
ἔθετο γὰρ παρὰ τῷ θανάτῳ τὸν οἶκον αὐτῆς καὶ παρὰ τῷ ἅδῃ μετὰ τῶν γηγενῶν τοὺς ἄξονας αὐτῆς.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
None that go by her shall return, neither shall they take hold of right paths, for they are not apprehended of the years of life.
|
πάντες οἱ πορευόμενοι ἐν αὐτῇ οὐκ ἀναστρέψουσιν, οὐδὲ μὴ καταλάβωσι τρίβους εὐθείας· οὐ γὰρ καταλαμβάνονται ὑπὸ ἐνιαυτῶν ζωῆς.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
For had they gone in good paths, they would have found the paths of righteousness easy.
|
εἰ γὰρ ἐπορεύοντο τρίβους ἀγαθάς, εὕροσαν ἂν τρίβους δικαιοσύνης λείας.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
For the upright shall dwell in the earth, and the holy shall be left behind in it.
|
χρηστοὶ ἔσονται οἰκήτορες γῆς, ἄκακοι δὲ ὑπολειφθήσονται ἐν αὐτῇ· ὅτι εὐθεῖς κατασκηνώσουσι γῆν, καὶ ὅσιοι ὑπολειφθήσονται ἐν αὐτῇ.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
The paths of the ungodly shall perish out of the earth, and transgressors shall be driven away from it.
|
ὁδοὶ ἀσεβῶν ἐκ γῆς ὀλοῦνται, οἱ δὲ παράνομοι ἐξωσθήσονται ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς.
