| Wine is an intemperate thing, and strong drink full of violence: but every fool is entangled with them. | ΑΚΟΛΑΣΤΟΝ οἶνος καὶ ὑβριστικὸν μέθη, πᾶς δὲ ἄφρων τοιούτοις συμπλέκεται. |

|
| The threat of a king differs not from the rage of a lion; and he that provokes him sins against his own soul. | οὐ διαφέρει ἀπειλὴ βασιλέως θυμοῦ λέοντος, ὁ δὲ παροξύνων αὐτὸν ἁμαρτάνει εἰς τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχήν. |

| It is a glory to a man to turn aside from railing; but every fool is entangled with such matters. | δόξα ἀνδρὶ ἀποστρέφεσθαι λοιδορίας, πᾶς δὲ ἄφρων τοιούτοις συμπλέκεται. |

| A sluggard when reproached is not ashamed: so also he who borrows corn in harvest. | ὀνειδιζόμενος ὀκνηρὸς οὐκ αἰσχύνεται, ὡσαύτως καὶ ὁ δανειζόμενος σῖτον ἐν ἀμήτῳ. |

|
| Counsel in a man's heart is deep water; but a prudent man will draw it out. | ὕδωρ βαθὺ βουλὴ ἐν καρδίᾳ ἀνδρός, ἀνὴρ δὲ φρόνιμος ἐξαντλήσει αὐτήν. |

|
| A man is valuable, and a merciful man precious: but it is hard to find a faithful man. | μέγα ἄνθρωπος καὶ τίμιον ἀνὴρ ἐλεήμων, ἄνδρα δὲ πιστὸν ἔργον εὑρεῖν. |

|
| He that walks blameless in justice, shall leave his children blessed. | ὃς ἀναστρέφεται ἄμωμος ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ, μακαρίους τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καταλείψει. |

|
| Whenever a righteous king sits on the throne, no evil thing can stand before his presence. | ὅταν βασιλεὺς δίκαιος καθίσῃ ἐπὶ θρόνου, οὐκ ἐναντιοῦται ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ πᾶν πονηρόν. |

|
| Who will boast that he has a pure heart? or who will boldly say that he is pure from sins? | τίς καυχήσεται ἁγνὴν ἔχειν τὴν καρδίαν; ἢ τίς παρρησιάσεται καθαρὸς εἶναι ἀπὸ ἁμαρτιῶν; |
|
9a
|
|
| The lamp of him that reviles father or mother shall be put out, and his eyeballs shall see darkness. | |
|

|
|
| A portion hastily gotten at first shall not be blessed in the end. | |
|

|
|
| Say not, I will avenge myself on my enemy; but wait on the Lord, that he may help thee. | |

|
| A large and small weight, and divers measures, are even both of them unclean before the Lord; and so is he that makes them. | στάθμιον μέγα καὶ μικρὸν καὶ μέτρα δισσά, ἀκάθαρτα ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ ἀμφότερα καὶ ὁ ποιῶν αὐτά. |
|

|
| A youth when in company with a godly man, will be restrained in his devices, and then his way will be straight. | ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτηδεύμασιν αὐτοῦ συμποδισθήσεται νεανίσκος μετὰ ὁσίου, καὶ εὐθεῖα ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτοῦ. |
|
12
|
12
|
| The ear hears, and the eye sees: even both of them are the Lord's work. | οὖς ἀκούει καὶ ὀφθαλμὸς ὁρᾷ· Κυρίου ἔργα καὶ ἀμφότερα. |
|
13
|
13
|
| Love not to speak ill, lest thou be cut off: open thine eyes, and be filled with bread. | μὴ ἀγάπα καταλαλεῖν, ἵνα μὴ ἐξαρθῇς· διάνοιξον τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς σου καὶ ἐμπλήσθητι ἄρτων. |
|

|

|
| A double weight is an abomination to the Lord; and a deceitful balance is not good in his sight. | βδέλυγμα Κυρίῳ δισσὸν στάθμιον, καὶ ζυγὸς δόλιος οὐ καλὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ. |
|
24
|

|
| A man's goings are directed of the Lord: how then can a mortal understand his ways? | παρὰ Κυρίου εὐθύνεται τὰ διαβήματα ἀνδρί, θνητὸς δὲ πῶς ἂν νοήσαι τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ; |
|
25
|
25
|
| It is a snare to a man hastily to consecrate some of his own property: for in that case repentance comes after vowing. | παγὶς ἀνδρὶ ταχύ τι τῶν ἰδίων ἁγιάσαι, μετὰ γὰρ τὸ εὔξασθαι μετανοεῖν γίνεται. |
|

|

|
| A wise king utterly crushes the ungodly, and will bring a wheel upon them. | λικμήτωρ ἀσεβῶν βασιλεὺς σοφός, καὶ ἐπιβαλεῖ αὐτοῖς τροχόν. |
|
27
|

|
| The spirit of man is a light of the Lord, who searches the inmost parts of the belly. | φῶς Κυρίου πνοὴ ἀνθρώπων, ὃς ἐρευνᾷ ταμιεῖα κοιλίας. |
|
28
|
28
|
| Mercy and truth are a guard to a king, and will surround his throne with righteousness. | ἐλεημοσύνη καὶ ἀλήθεια φυλακὴ βασιλεῖ, καὶ περικυκλώσουσιν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ. |
|
29

|
| Wisdom is an ornament to young men; and grey hairs are the glory of old men. | κόσμος νεανίαις σοφία, δόξα δὲ πρεσβυτέρων πολιαί. |
|

|
| Bruises and contusions befall bad men; and plagues shall come into the inward parts of their belly. | ὑπώπια καὶ συντρίμματα συναντᾷ κακοῖς, πληγαὶ δὲ εἰς ταμιεῖα κοιλίας. |
