My son, attend to my wisdom, and apply thine ear to my words;
|
ΥΙΕ, ἐμῇ σοφίᾳ πρόσεχε, ἐμοῖς δὲ λόγοις παράβαλλε σὸν οὗς,
|
|

|
2
|
|
that thou mayest keep good understanding, and the discretion of my lips gives thee a charge. Give no heed to a worthless woman;
|
ἵνα φυλάξῃς ἔννοιαν ἀγαθήν· αἴσθησις δὲ ἐμῶν χειλέων ἐντέλλεταί σοι.
|
|

|
|
for honey drops from the lips of a harlot, who for a season pleases thy palate:
|
μὴ πρόσεχε φαύλῃ γυναικί· μέλι γὰρ ἀποστάζει ἀπὸ χειλέων γυναικὸς πόρνης, ἣ πρὸς καιρὸν λιπαίνει σὸν φάρυγγα,
|
|
4
|

|
|
but afterwards thou wilt find her more bitter than gall, and sharper than a two-edged sword.
|
ὕστερον μέντοι πικρότερον χολῆς εὑρήσεις καὶ ἠκονημένον μᾶλλον μαχαίρας διστόμου.

|
For the feet of folly lead those who deal with her down to the grave with death; and her steps are not established.
|
τῆς γὰρ ἀφροσύνης οἱ πόδες κατάγουσι τοὺς χρωμένους αὐτῇ μετὰ θανάτου εἰς τὸν ᾅδην, τὰ δὲ ἴχνη αὐτῆς οὐκ ἐρείδεται·
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
For she goes not upon the paths of life; but her ways are slippery, and not easily known.
|
ὁδοὺς γὰρ ζωῆς οὐκ ἐπέρχεται, σφαλεραὶ δὲ αἱ τροχιαὶ αὐτῆς καὶ οὐκ εὔγνωστοι.
|
|

|

|
|
Now then, my son, hear me, and make not my words of none effect.
|
νῦν οὖν, υἱέ, ἄκουέ μου καὶ μὴ ἀκύρους ποιήσῃς ἐμοὺς λόγους.
|
|

|
8
|
|
Remove thy way far from her; draw not near to the doors of her house:
|
μακρὰν ποίησον ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς σὴν ὁδόν, μὴ ἐγγίσῃς πρὸς θύραις οἴκων αὐτῆς,
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
lest thou give away thy life to others, and thy substance to the merciless:
|
ἵνα μὴ πρόῃ ἄλλοις ζωήν σου καὶ σὸν βίον ἀνελεήμοσιν·
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
lest strangers be filled with thy strength, and thy labours come into the houses of strangers;
|
ἵνα μὴ πλησθῶσιν ἀλλότριοι σῆς ἰσχύος, οἱ δὲ σοὶ πόνοι εἰς οἴκους ἀλλοτρίων ἔλθωσι
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
and thou repent at last, when the flesh of thy body is consumed,
|
καὶ μεταμεληθήσῃ ἐπ᾿ ἐσχάτων, ἡνίκα ἂν κατατριβῶσι σάρκες σωματός σου,
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
and thou shalt say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart avoided reproofs!
|
καὶ ἐρεῖς· πῶς ἐμίσησα παιδείαν, καὶ ἐλέγχους ἐξέκλινεν ἡ καρδία μου;
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
I heard not the voice of him that instructed me, and taught me, neither did I apply mine ear.
|
οὐκ ἤκουον φωνὴν παιδεύοντός με καὶ διδάσκοντός με, οὐδὲ παρέβαλλον τὸ οὖς μου·
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
|
παρ᾿ ὀλίγον ἐγενόμην ἐν παντὶ κακῷ ἐν μέσῳ ἐκκλησίας καὶ συναγωγῆς.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
Drink waters out of thine own vessels, and out of thine own springing wells.
|
πῖνε ὕδατα ἀπὸ σῶν ἀγγείων καὶ ἀπὸ σῶν φρεάτων πηγῆς.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
Let not waters out of thy fountain be spilt by thee, but let thy waters go into thy streets.
|
μὴ ὑπερεκχείσθω σοι ὕδατα ἐκ τῆς σῆς πηγῆς, εἰς δὲ σὰς πλατείας διαπορευέσθω τὰ σὰ ὕδατα·
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
Let them be only thine own, and let no stranger partake with thee.
|
ἔστω σοι μόνῳ ὑπάρχοντα, καὶ μηδεὶς ἀλλότριος μετασχέτω σοι·
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
Let thy fountain of water be truly thine own; and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
|
ἡ πηγή σου τοῦ ὕδατος ἔστω σοι ἰδία, καὶ συνευφραίνου μετὰ γυναικὸς τῆς ἐκ νεότητός σου.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
Let thy loving hart and thy graceful colt company with thee, and let her be considered thine own, and be with thee at all times; for ravished with her love thou shalt be greatly increased.
|
ἔλαφος φιλίας καὶ πῶλος σῶν χαρίτων ὁμιλείτω σοι· ἡ δὲ ἰδία ἡγείσθω σου καὶ συνέστω σοι ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ, ἐν γὰρ τῇ ταύτης φιλίᾳ συμπεριφερόμενος πολλοστὸς ἔσῃ.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
Be not intimate with a strange woman, neither fold thyself in the arms of a woman not thine own.
|
μὴ πολὺς ἴσθι πρὸς ἀλλοτρίαν, μηδὲ συνέχου ἀγκάλαις τῆς μὴ ἰδίας·
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
For the ways of a man are before the eyes of God, and he looks on all his paths.
|
ἐνώπιον γάρ εἰσι τῶν τοῦ Θεοῦ ὀφθαλμῶν ὁδοὶ ἀνδρός, εἰς δὲ πάσας τὰς τροχιὰς αὐτοῦ σκοπεύει.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
Iniquities ensnare a man, and every one is bound in the chains of his own sins.
|
παρονομίαι ἄνδρα ἀγρεύουσι, σειραῖς δὲ τῶν ἑαυτοῦ ἁμαρτιῶν ἕκαστος σφίγγεται·
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
Such a man dies with the uninstructed; and he is cast forth from the abundance of his own substance, and has perished through folly.
|
οὗτος τελευτᾷ μετὰ ἀπαιδεύτων, ἐκ δὲ πλήθους τῆς ἑαυτοῦ βιότητος ἐξερρίφη καὶ ἀπώλετο δι᾿ ἀφροσύνην.
