|
The ungodly man flees when no one pursues: but the righteous is confident as a lion.
|
ΦΕΥΓΕΙ ἀσεβὴς μηδενὸς διώκοντος, δίκαιος δὲ ὥσπερ λέων πέποιθε.
|
|

|

|
|
By reason of the sins of ungodly men quarrels arise; but a wise man will quell them.
|
δι᾿ ἁμαρτίας ἀσεβῶν κρίσεις ἐγείρονται, ἀνὴρ δὲ πανοῦργος κατασβέσει αὐτάς.
|
|

|
|
A bold man oppresses the poor by ungodly deeds. As an impetuous and unprofitable rain,
|
ἀνδρεῖος ἐν ἀσεβείαις συκοφαντεῖ πτωχούς. ὥσπερ ὑετὸς λάβρος καὶ ἀνωφελής,
|
|

|

|
|
so they that forsake the law praise ungodliness; but they that love the law fortify themselves with a wall.
|
οὕτως οἱ ἐγκαταλείποντες τὸν νόμον ἐγκωμιάζουν ἀσέβειαν, οἱ δὲ ἀγαπῶντες τὸν νόμον περιβάλλουσιν ἑαυτοῖς τεῖχος.
|
|

|
|
Evil men will not understand judgment: but they that seek the Lord will understand everything.
|
ἄνδρες κακοὶ οὐ νοήσουσι κρίμα, οἱ δὲ ζητοῦντες τὸν Κύριον συνήσουσιν ἐν παντί.
|
|

|
|
A poor man walking in truth is better than a rich liar.
|
κρείσσων πτωχὸς πορευόμενος ἐν ἀληθείᾳ, πλουσίου ψευδοῦς.
|
|

|
7
|
|
A wise son keeps the law: but he that keeps up debauchery dishonours his father.
|
φυλάσσει νόμον υἱὸς συνετός, ὃς δὲ ποιμαίνει ἀσωτίαν ἀτιμάζει πατέρα.
|
|

|

|
|
He that increases his wealth by usuries and unjust gains, gathers it for him that pities the poor.
|
ὁ πληθύνων τὸν πλοῦτον αὐτοῦ μετὰ τόκων καὶ πλεονασμῶν, τῷ ἐλεῶντι πτωχοὺς συνάγει αὐτόν.
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
He that turns away his ear from hearing the law, even he has made his prayer abominable.
|
ὁ ἐκκλίνων τὸ οὖς αὐτοῦ μὴ εἰσακοῦσαι νόμου, καὶ αὐτὸς τὴν προσευχὴν αὐτοῦ ἐβδέλυκται.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
He that causes upright men to err in an evil way, himself shall fall into destruction: transgressors also shall pass by prosperity, but shall not enter into it.
|
ὃς πλανᾷ εὐθεῖς ἐν ὁδῷ κακῇ, εἰς διαφθορὰν αὐτὸς ἐμπεσεῖται· οἱ δὲ ἄνομοι διελεύσονται ἀγαθά, καὶ οὐκ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς αὐτά.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
A rich man is wise in his own conceit; but an intelligent poor man will condemn him.
|
σοφὸς παρ᾿ ἑαυτῷ ἀνὴρ πλούσιος, πένης δὲ νοήμων καταγνώσεται αὐτοῦ.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
By reason of the help of righteous men great glory arises: but in the places of the ungodly men are caught.
|
διὰ βοήθειαν δικαίων πολλὴν γίνεται δόξα, ἐν δὲ τόποις ἀσεβῶν ἁλίσκονται ἄνθρωποι.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
He that covers his own ungodliness shall not prosper: but he that blames himself shall be loved.
|
ὁ ἐπικαλύπτων ἀσέβειαν ἑαυτοῦ οὐκ εὐοδωθήσεται, ὁ δὲ ἐξηγούμενος ἐλέγχους ἀγαπηθήσεται.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
Blessed is the man who religiously fears always: but the hard of heart shall fall into mischiefs.
|
μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς καταπτήσσει πάντα δι᾿ εὐλάβειαν, ὁ δὲ σκληρὸς τὴν καρδίαν ἐμπεσεῖται κακοῖς.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
A hungry lion and a thirsty wolf is he, who, being poor, rules over a poor nation.
|
λέων πεινῶν καὶ λύκος διψῶν, ὃς τυραννεῖ, πτωχὸς ὤν, ἔθνους πενιχροῦ.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
A king in need of revenues is a great oppressor: but he that hates injustice shall live a long time.
|
βασιλεὺς ἐνδεὴς προσόδων μέγας συκοφάντης, ὁ δὲ μισῶν ἀδικίαν μακρὸν χρόνον ζήσεται.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
He that becomes surety for a man charged with murder shall be an exile, and not in safety. Chasten thy son, and he shall love thee, and give honour to thy soul: he shall not obey a sinful nation.
|
ἄνδρα τὸν ἐν αἰτίᾳ φόνου ὁ ἐγγυώμενος, φυγὰς ἔσται καὶ οὐκ ἐν ἀσφαλείᾳ. 17α παίδευε υἱὸν καὶ ἀγαπήσει σε, καὶ δώσει κόσμον τῇ σῆ ψυχῇ· οὐ μὴ ὑπακούσει ἔθνει παρανόμῳ.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
He that walks justly is assisted: but he that walks in crooked ways shall be entangled therein.
|
ὁ πορευόμενος δικαίως βεβοήθηται, ὁ δὲ σκολιαῖς ὁδοῖς πορευόμενος ἐμπλακήσεται.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
He that tills his own land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that follows idleness shall have plenty of poverty.
|
ὁ ἐργαζόμενος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γῆν πλησθήσεται ἄρτων, ὁ δὲ διώκων σχολὴν πλησθήσεται πενίας.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
A man worthy of credit shall be much blessed: but the wicked shall not be unpunished.
|
ἀνὴρ ἀξιόπιστος πολλὰ εὐλογηθήσεται, ὁ δὲ κακὸς οὐκ ἀτιμώρητος ἔσται.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
He that reverences not the persons of the just is not good: such a one will sell a man for a morsel of bread.
|
ὃς οὐκ αἰσχύνεται πρόσωπα δικαίων, οὐκ ἀγαθός· ὁ τοιοῦτος ψωμοῦ ἄρτου ἀποδώσεται ἄνδρα.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
An envious man makes haste to be rich, and knows not that the merciful man will have the mastery over him.
|
σπεύδει πλουτεῖν ἀνὴρ βάσκανος, καὶ οὐκ οἶδεν ὅτι ἐλεήμων κρατήσει αὐτοῦ.
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
He that reproves a man's ways shall have more favour than he that flatters with the tongue.
|
ὁ ἐλέγχων ἀνθρώπου ὁδοὺς χάριτας ἕξει μᾶλλον τοῦ γλωσσοχαριτοῦντος.
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
He that casts off father or mother, and thinks he sins not; the same is partaker with an ungodly man.
|
ὃς ἀποβάλλεται πατέρα ἢ μητέρα, καὶ δοκεῖ μὴ ἁμαρτάνειν, οὗτος κοινωνός ἐστιν ἀνδρὸς ἀσεβοῦς.
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
An unbelieving man judges rashly: but he that trusts in the Lord will act carefully.
|
ἄπιστος ἀνὴρ κρίνει εἰκῆ, ὃς δὲ πέποιθεν ἐπὶ Κύριον ἐν ἐπιμελείᾳ ἔσται.
|
|
26
|
26
|
|
He that trusts to a bold heart, such an one is a fool: but he that walks in wisdom shall be safe.
|
ὃς πέποιθε θρασείᾳ καρδίᾳ, ὁ τοιοῦτος ἄφρων· ὃς δὲ πορεύεται σοφίᾳ σωθήσεται.
|
|
27
|
27
|
|
He that gives to the poor shall not be in want: but he that turns away his eye from him shall be in great distress.
|
ὃς δίδωσι πτωχοῖς, οὐκ ἐνδεηθήσεται, ὃς δὲ ἀποστρέφει τὸν ὀφθαλμὸν αὐτοῦ, ἐν πολλῇ ἀπορίᾳ ἔσται.
|
|
28
|
28
|
|
In the places of ungodly men the righteous mourn: but in their destruction the righteous shall be multiplied.
|
ἐν τόποις ἀσεβῶν στένουσι δίκαιοι, ἐν δὲ τῇ ἐκείνων ἀπωλείᾳ πληθυνθήσονται δίκαιοι.
