My son, envy not bad men, nor desire to be with them.
|
ΥΙΕ, μὴ ζηλώσῃς κακοὺς ἄνδρας μηδὲ ἐπιθυμήσῃς εἶναι μετ᾿ αὐτῶν·
|
|

|

|
|
For their heart meditates falsehoods, and their lips speak mischiefs.
|
ψευδῆ γὰρ μελετᾷ ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, καὶ πόνους τὰ χείλη αὐτῶν λαλεῖ.

|
A house is built by wisdom, and is set up by understanding.
|
μετὰ σοφίας οἰκοδομεῖται οἶκος καὶ μετὰ συνέσεως ἀνορθοῦται.
|
|

|
|
By discretion the chambers are filled with all precious and excellent wealth.
|
μετὰ αἰσθήσεως ἐμπίπλανται ταμιεῖα ἐκ παντὸς πλούτου τιμίου καὶ καλοῦ.
|
|

|
|
A wise man is better than a strong man; and a man who has prudence than a large estate.
|
κρείσσων σοφὸς ἰσχυροῦ καὶ ἀνὴρ φρόνησιν ἔχων γεωργίου μεγάλου.
|
|

|

|
|
War is carried on with generalship, and aid is supplied to the heart of a counsellor.
|
μετὰ κυβερνήσεως γίνεται πόλεμος, βοήθεια δὲ μετὰ καρδίας βουλευτικῆς.
|
|

|

|
|
Wisdom and good understanding are in the gates of the wise: the wise turn not aside from the mouth of the Lord,
|
σοφία καὶ ἔννοια ἀγαθὴ ἐν πύλαις σοφῶν· σοφοὶ οὐκ ἐκκλίνουσιν ἐκ στόματος Κυρίου,
|
|
8
|

|
|
but deliberate in council. Death befalls uninstructed men.
|
ἀλλὰ λογίζονται ἐν συνεδρίοις. ἀπαιδεύτοις συναντᾷ θάνατος,
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
The fool also dies in sins; and uncleanness attaches to a pestilent man.
|
ἀποθνήσκει δὲ ἄφρων ἐν ἁμαρτίαις. ἀκαθαρσία δὲ ἀνδρὶ λοιμῷ
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
He shall be defiled in the evil day, and in the day of affliction, until he be utterly consumed.
|
ἐμμολυνθήσεται ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κακῇ καὶ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως, ἕως ἂν ἐκλίπῃ.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
Deliver them that are led away to death, and redeem them that are appointed to be slain; spare not thy help.
|
ρῦσαι ἀγομένους εἰς θάνατον καὶ ἐκπρίου κτεινομένους, μὴ φείσῃ·
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
But if thou shouldest say, I know not this man; know that the Lord knows the hearts of all; and he that formed breath for all, he knows all things, who renders to every man according to his works.
|
ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃς, οὐκ οἶδα τοῦτον, γίνωσκε ὅτι Κύριος καρδίας πάντων γινώσκει, καὶ ὁ πλάσας πνοὴν πᾶσιν, αὐτὸς οἶδε πάντα, ὃς ἀποδίδωσιν ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
My son, eat honey, for the honeycomb is good, that thy throat may be sweetened.
|
φάγε μέλι, υἱέ, ἀγαθὸν γὰρ κηρίον, ἵνα γλυκανθῇ σου ὁ φάρυγξ·
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
Thus shalt thou perceive wisdom in thy soul: for if thou find it, thine end shall be good, and hope shall not fail thee.
|
οὕτως αἰσθήσῃ σοφίαν τῇ σῇ ψυχῇ· ἐὰν γὰρ εὕρῃς, ἔσται καλὴ ἡ τελευτή σου, καὶ ἐλπίς σε οὐκ ἐγκαταλείψει.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
Bring not an ungodly man into the dwelling of the righteous: neither be deceived by the feeding of the belly.
|
μὴ προσαγάγῃς ἀσεβῆ νομῇ δικαίων μηδὲ ἀπατηθῇς χορτασίᾳ κοιλίας·
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
For a righteous man will fall seven times, and rise again: but the ungodly shall be without strength in troubles.
|
ἑπτάκις γὰρ πεσεῖται δίκαιος καὶ ἀναστήσεται, οἱ δὲ ἀσεβεῖς ἀσθενήσουσιν ἐν κακοῖς.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
If thine enemy should fall, rejoice not over him, neither be elated at his overthrow.
|
ἐὰν πέσῃ ὁ ἐχθρός σου, μὴ ἐπιχαρῇς αὐτῷ, ἐν δὲ τῷ ὑποσκελίσματι αὐτοῦ μὴ ἐπαίρου·
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
For the Lord will see it, and it will not please him, and he will turn away his wrath from him.
|
ὅτι ὄψεται Κύριος καὶ οὐκ ἀρέσει αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀποστρέψει τὸν θυμὸν αὐτοῦ ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
Rejoice not in evil-doers, neither be envious of sinners.
|
μὴ χαῖρε ἐπὶ κακοποιοῖς, μηδὲ ζήλου ἁμαρτωλούς·
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
For the evil man shall have no posterity: and the light of the wicked shall be put out.
|
οὐ γὰρ μὴ γένηται ἔκγονα πονηρῷ, λαμπτὴρ δὲ ἀσεβῶν σβεσθήσεται.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
My son, fear God and the king; and do not disobey either of them.
|
φοβοῦ τὸν Θεόν, υἱέ, καὶ βασιλέα καὶ μηθετέρῳ αὐτῶν ἀπειθήσῃς·
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
For they will suddenly punish the ungodly, and who can know the vengeance inflicted by both? A son that keeps the commandment shall escape destruction; for such an one has fully received it. Let no falsehood be spoken by the king from the tongue; yea, let no falsehood proceed from his tongue. The king's tongue is a sword, and not one of flesh; and whosoever shall be given up to it shall be destroyed: for if his wrath should be provoked, he destroys men with cords, and devours men's bones, and burns them up as a flame, so that they are not even fit to be eaten by the young eagles. My son, reverence my words, and receive them, and repent. These things says the man to them that trust in God; and I cease. For I am the most simple of all men, and there is not in me the wisdom of men. God has taught me wisdom, and I know the knowledge of the holy. Who has gone up to heaven, and come down? who has gathered the winds in his bosom? who has wrapped up the waters in a garment? who has dominion of all the ends of the earth? what is his name? or what is the name of his children? For all the words of God are tried in the fire, and he defends those that reverence him. Add not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be made a liar. Two things I ask of thee; take not favour from me before I die. Remove far from me vanity and falsehood: and give me not wealth or poverty; but appoint me what is needful and sufficient: lest I be filled and become false, and say, Who sees me? or be poor and steal, and swear vainly by the name of God. Deliver not a servant into the hands of his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be utterly destroyed. A wicked generation curse their father, and do not bless their mother. A wicked generation judge themselves to be just, but do not cleanse their way. A wicked generation have lofty eyes, and exalt themselves with their eyelids. A wicked generation have swords for teeth and jaw-teeth as knives, so as to destroy and devour the lowly from the earth, and the poor of them from among men.
|
ἐξαίφνης γὰρ τίσονται τοὺς ἀσεβεῖς, τὰς δὲ τιμωρίας ἀμφοτέρων τίς γνώσεται; (Μασ. ΚΘ´,
|
|
23
|
27
|
|
And this thing I say to you that are wise for you to learn: It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
|
). 22α λόγον φυλασσόμενος υἱὸς ἀπωλείας ἐκτὸς ἔσται, δεχόμενος δὲ ἐδέξατο αὐτόν. 22β μηδὲν ψεῦδος ἀπὸ γλώσσης βασιλεῖ λεγέσθω, καὶ οὐδὲν ψεῦδος ἀπὸ γλώσσης αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ ἐξέλθῃ. 22γ μάχαιρα γλῶσσα βασιλέως καὶ οὐ σαρκίνη, ὃς δ᾿ ἂν παραδοθῇ, συντριβήσεται· 22δ ἐὰν γὰρ ὀξυνθῇ ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ, σὺν νεύροις ἀνθρώπους ἀναλίσκει, καὶ ὀστᾶ ἀνθρώπων κατατρώγει, καὶ συγκαίει ὥσπερ φλόξ, ὥστε ἄβρωτα εἶναι νεοσσοῖς ἀετῶν. (Μασ. Λ´,
|
|
24
|
1
|
|
He that says of the ungodly, He is righteous, shall be cursed by peoples, and hateful among the nations.
|
). 22ε Τοὺς ἐμοὺς λόγους, υἱέ, φοβήθητι, καὶ δεξάμενος αὐτοὺς μετανόει· τάδε λέγει ὁ ἀνὴρ τοῖς πιστεύουσι Θεῷ, καὶ παύομαι·
|
|
25
|
2
|
|
But they that reprove him shall appear more excellent, and blessing shall come upon them;
|
ἀφρονέστατος γάρ εἰμι ἁπάντων ἀνθρώπων, καὶ φρόνησις ἀνθρώπων οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ἐμοί·
|
|
26
|
3
|
|
and men will kiss lips that answer well.
|
Θεὸς δεδίδαχέ με σοφίαν, καὶ γνῶσιν ἁγίων ἔγνωκα.
|
|
27
|
4
|
|
Prepare thy works for thy going forth, and prepare thyself for the field; and come after me, and thou shalt rebuild thine house.
|
τίς ἀνέβη εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ κατέβη; τίς συνήγαγεν ἀνέμους ἐν κόλπῳ; τίς συνέστρεψεν ὕδωρ ἐν ἱματίῳ; τίς ἐκράτησε πάντων τῶν ἄκρων τῆς γῆς; τί ὄνομα αὐτῷ, ἢ τί ὄνομα τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτοῦ;
|
|
28
|
5
|
|
Be not a false witness against thy fellow citizen, neither exaggerate with thy lips.
|
πάντες γὰρ λόγοι Θεοῦ πεπυρωμένοι, ὑπερασπίζει δὲ αὐτὸς τῶν εὐλαβουμένων αὐτόν.
|
|
29
|
6
|
|
Say not, As he has treated me, so will I treat him, and I will avenge myself on him for that wherein he has injured me.
|
μὴ προσθῇς τοῖς λόγοις αὐτοῦ, ἵνα μὴ ἐλέγξῃ σε καὶ ψευδὴς γένῃ.
|
|
30
|
7
|
|
A foolish man is like a farm, and a senseless man is like a vineyard.
|
δύο αἰτοῦμαι παρὰ σοῦ, μὴ ἀφέλῃς μου χάριν πρὸ τοῦ ἀποθανεῖν με·
|
|
31
|
8
|
|
If thou let him alone, he will altogether remain barren and covered with weeds; and he becomes destitute, and his stone walls are broken down.
|
μάταιον λόγον καὶ ψευδῆ μακράν μου ποίησον, πλοῦτον δὲ καὶ πενίαν μή μοι δῷς, σύνταξόν δέ μοι τὰ δέοντα καὶ τὰ αὐτάρκη,
|
|
32
|
9
|
|
Afterwards I reflected, I looked that I might receive instruction.
|
ἵνα μὴ πλησθεὶς ψευδὴς γένωμαι καὶ εἴπω· τίς με ὁρᾶ; ἢ πενηθεὶς κλέψω καὶ ὀμόσω τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ.
|
|
33
|
10
|
|
The sluggard says, I slumber a little, and I sleep a little, and for a little while I fold my arms across my breast.
|
μὴ παραδῷς οἰκέτην εἰς χεῖρας δεσπότου, μήποτε καταράσηταί σε καὶ ἀφανισθῇς.
|
|
34
|
11
|
|
But if thou do this, thy poverty will come speedily; and thy want like a swift courier.
|
ἔκγονον κακὸν πατέρα καταρᾶται, τὴν δὲ μητέρα οὐκ εὐλογεῖ.
|
|
35
|
12
|
|
The horse-leech had three dearly-beloved daughters: and these three did not satisfy her; and the fourth was not contented so as to say, Enough.
|
ἔκγονον κακὸν δίκαιον ἑαυτὸν κρίνει. τὴν δ᾿ ἔξοδον αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀπένιψεν.
|
|
36
|
13
|
|
The grave, and the love of a woman, and the earth not filled with water; water also and fire will not say, It is enough.
|
ἔκγονον κακὸν ὑψηλοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχει, τοῖς δὲ βλεφάροις αὐτοῦ ἐπαίρεται.
|
|
37
|
14
|
|
The eye that laughs to scorn a father, and dishonours the old age of a mother, let the ravens of the valleys pick it out, and let the young eagles devour it.
|
ἔκγονον κακὸν μαχαίρας τοὺς ὀδόντας ἔχει καὶ τὰς μύλας τομίδας, ὥστε ἀναλίσκειν καὶ κατεσθίειν τοὺς ταπεινοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ τοὺς πένητας αὐτῶν ἐξ ἀνθρώπων. (Μασ. ΚΔ´,
|
|
38
|
23
|
|
Moreover there are three things impossible for me to comprehend, and the fourth I know not:
|
). Ταῦτα δὲ λέγω ὑμῖν τοῖς σοφοῖς ἐπιγινώσκειν· αἰδεῖσθαι πρόσωπον ἐν κρίσει οὐ καλόν.
|
|
39
|
24
|
|
the track of a flying eagle; and the ways of a serpent on a rock; and the paths of a ship passing through the sea; and the ways of a man in youth.
|
ὁ εἰπὼν τὸν ἀσεβῆ· δίκαιός ἐστιν, ἐπικατάρατος λαοῖς ἔσται καὶ μισητὸς εἰς ἔθνη·
|
|
40
|
25
|
|
Such is the way of an adulterous woman, who having washed herself from what she has done, says she has done nothing amiss.
|
οἱ δὲ ἐλέγχοντες βελτίους φανοῦνται, ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς δὲ ἥξει εὐλογία·
|
|
41
|
26
|
|
By three things the earth is troubled, and the fourth it cannot bear:
|
χείλη δὲ φιλήσουσιν ἀποκρινόμενα λόγους ἀγαθούς.
|
|
42
|
27
|
|
if a servant reign; or a fool be filled with food;
|
ἑτοίμαζε εἰς τὴν ἔξοδον τὰ ἔργα σου καὶ παρασκευάζου εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν καὶ πορεύου κατόπισθέν μου καὶ ἀνοικοδομήσεις τὸν οἶκον σου.
|
|
43
|
28
|
|
or if a maid-servant should cast out her own mistress; and if a hateful woman should marry a good man.
|
μή ἴσθι ψευδὴς μάρτυς ἐπὶ σὸν πολίτην, μηδὲ πλατύνου σοῖς χείλεσι.
|
|
44
|
29
|
|
And there are four very little things upon the earth, but these are wiser than the wise:
|
μὴ εἴπῃς· ὃν τρόπον ἐχρήσατό μοι, χρήσομαι αὐτῷ, τίσομαι δὲ αὐτὸν ἅ με ἠδίκησεν.
|
|
45
|
30
|
|
the ants which are weak, and yet prepare their food in summer;
|
ὥσπερ γεώργιον ἀνὴρ ἄφρων, καὶ ὥσπερ ἀμπελὼν ἄνθρωπος ἐνδεὴς φρενῶν·
|
|
46
|
31
|
|
the rabbits also are a feeble race, who make their houses in the rocks.
|
ἐὰν ἀφῇς αὐτόν, χερσωθήσεται καὶ χορτομανήσει ὅλος καὶ γίνεται ἐκλελειμμένος, οἱ δὲ φραγμοὶ τῶν λίθων αὐτοῦ κατασκάπτονται.
|
|
47
|
32
|
|
The locusts have no king, and yet march orderly at one command.
|
ὕστερον ἐγὼ μετενόησα, ἐπέβλεψα τοῦ ἐκλέξασθαι παιδείαν,
|
|
48
|
33
|
|
And the eft, which supports itself by its hands, and is easily taken, dwells in the fortresses of kings.
|
ὀλίγον νυστάζω, ὀλίγον δὲ καθυπνῶ, ὀλίγον δὲ ἐναγκαλίζομαι χερσὶ στήθη·
|
|
49
|
34
|
|
And there are three things which go well, and a fourth which passes along finely.
|
ἐὰν δὲ τοῦτο ποιῇς, ἥξει προπορευομένη ἡ πενία σου καὶ ἡ ἔνδειά σου ὥσπερ ἀγαθὸς δρομεύς. (Μασ. Λ´,
|
|
50
|
15
|
|
A lion's whelp, stronger than all other beasts, which turns not away, nor fears any beast;
|
). Τῇ βδέλλῃ τρεῖς θυγατέρες ἦσαν ἀγαπήσει ἀγαπώμεναι, καὶ αἱ τρεῖς αὗται οὐκ ἐνεπίμπλασαν αὐτήν, καὶ ἡ τετάρτη οὐκ ἠρκέσθη εἰπεῖν· ἱκανόν.
|
|
51
|
16
|
|
and a cock walking in boldly among the hens, and a goat leading the herd; and a king publicly speaking before a nation.
|
ᾅδης καὶ ἔρως γυναικὸς καὶ γῆ οὐκ ἐμπιπλαμένη ὕδατος καὶ ὕδωρ καὶ πῦρ οὐ μὴ εἴπωσιν· ἀρκεῖ·
|
|
52
|
17
|
|
If thou abandon thyself to mirth, and stretch forth thine hand in a quarrel, thou shalt be disgraced.
|
ὀφθαλμὸν καταγελῶντα πατρὸς καὶ ἀτιμάζοντα γῆρας μητρός, ἐκκόψαισαν αὐτὸν κόρακες ἐκ τῶν φαράγγων καὶ καταφάγοισαν αὐτὸν νεοσσοὶ ἀετῶν.
|
|
53
|
18
|
|
Milk out milk, and there shall be butter, and if thou wring one's nostrils there shall come out blood: so if thou extort words, there will come forth quarrels and strifes.
|
τρία δέ ἐστι ἀδύνατά μοι νοῆσαι, καὶ τὸ τέταρτον οὐκ ἐπιγινώσκω·
|
|
54
|
19
|
|
My words have been spoken by God—the oracular answer of a king, whom his mother instructed.
|
ἴχνη ἀετοῦ πετομένου καὶ ὁδοὺς ὄφεως ἐπὶ πέτρας καὶ τρίβους νηὸς ποντοπορούσης καὶ ὁδοὺς ἀνδρὸς ἐν νεότητι.
|
|
55
|
20
|
|
What wilt thou keep, my son, what? the words of God. My firstborn son, I speak to thee: what? son of my womb? what? son of my vows?
|
τοιαύτη ὁδὸς γυναικὸς μοιχαλίδος, ἥ, ὅταν πράξῃ, ἀπονιψαμένη, οὐδέν φησι πεπραχέναι ἄτοπον.
|
|
56
|
21
|
|
Give not thy wealth to women, nor thy mind and living to remorse. Do all things with counsel: drink wine with counsel.
|
διὰ τριῶν σείεται ἡ γῆ, τὸ δὲ τέταρτον οὐ δύναται φέρειν·
|
|
57
|
22
|
|
Princes are prone to anger: let them then not drink wine:
|
ἐὰν οἰκέτης βασιλεύσῃ καὶ ἄφρων πλησθῇ σιτίων
|
|
58
|
23
|
|
lest they drink, and forget wisdom, and be not able to judge the poor rightly.
|
καὶ οἰκέτις ἐὰν ἐκβάλῃ τὴν ἑαυτῆς κυρίαν καὶ μισητὴ γυνὴ ἐὰν τύχῃ ἀνδρὸς ἀγαθοῦ.
|
|
59
|
24
|
|
Give strong drink to those that are in sorrow, and the wine to drink to those in pain:
|
τέσσαρα δὲ ἐλάχιστα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ταῦτα δέ ἐστι σοφώτερα τῶν σοφῶν·
|
|
60
|
25
|
|
that they may forget their poverty, and may not remember their troubles any more.
|
οἱ μύρμηκες, οἷς μὴ ἔστιν ἰσχὺς καὶ ἑτοιμάζονται θέρους τὴν τροφήν·
|
|
61
|
26
|
|
Open thy mouth with the word of God, and judge all fairly.
|
καὶ οἱ χοιρογρύλλιοι, ἔθνος οὐκ ἰσχυρόν, οἳ ἐποιήσαντο ἐν πέτραις τοὺς ἑαυτῶν οἴκους·
|
|
62
|
27
|
|
Open thy mouth and judge justly, and plead the cause of the poor and weak.
|
ἀβασίλευτόν ἐστιν ἡ ἀκρὶς καὶ στρατεύει ἀφ᾿ ἑνὸς κελεύσματος εὐτάκτως·
|
