Κεφάλαιο 10

|
| A wise judge will instruct his people; and the government of a prudent man is well ordered. | ΜΗ ζήλου γυναῖκα τοῦ κόλπου σου, μηδὲ διδάξῃς ἐπὶ σεαυτὸν παιδείαν πονηράν. |
|

|
| As the judge of the people is himself, so are his officers; and what manner of man the ruler of the city is, such are all they that dwell therein. | μὴ δῷς γυναικὶ τὴν ψυχήν σου ἐπιβῆναι αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὴν ἰσχύν σου. |
|

|
| An unwise king destroyeth his people; but through the prudence of them which are in authority the city shall be inhabited. | μὴ ὑπάντα γυναικὶ ἑταιριζομένῃ, μήποτε ἐμπέσῃς εἰς τὰς παγίδας αὐτῆς. |

|
| The power of the earth is in the hand of the Lord, and in due time he will set over it one that is profitable. | μετὰ ψαλλούσῃς μὴ ἐνδελέχιζε, μήποτε ἁλῷς ἐν τοῖς ἐπιχειρήμασιν αὐτῆς. |
|

|
| In the hand of God is the prosperity of man: and upon the person of the scribe shall he lay his honour. | παρθένον μὴ καταμάνθανε, μήποτε σκανδαλισθῇς ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτιμίοις αὐτῆς. |
|

|
| Bear not hatred to thy neighbour for every wrong; and do nothing at all by injurious practices. | μὴ δῷς πόρναις τὴν ψυχήν σου, ἵνα μὴ ἀπολέσῃς τὴν κληρονομίαν σου. |
|

|
| Pride is hateful before God and man: and by both doth one commit iniquity. | μὴ περιβλέπου ἐν ρύμαις πόλεως καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἐρήμοις αὐτῆς μὴ πλανῶ. |
|

|
| Because of unrighteous dealings, injuries, and riches got by deceit, the kingdom is translated from one people to another. | ἀπόστρεψον ὀφθαλμὸν ἀπὸ γυναικὸς εὐμόρφου, καὶ μὴ καταμάνθανε κάλλος ἀλλότριον· ἐν κάλλει γυναικὸς πολλοὶ ἐπλανήθησαν, καὶ ἐκ τούτου φιλία ὡς πῦρ ἀνακαίεται. |

|
| Why is earth and ashes proud? There is not a more wicked thing than a covetous man: for such an one setteth his own soul to sale; because while he liveth he casteth away his bowels. | μετὰ ὑπάνδρου γυναικὸς μὴ κάθου τὸ σύνολον καὶ μὴ συμβολοκοπήσῃς μετ᾿ αὐτῆς ἐν οἴνῳ, μήποτε ἐκκλίνη ἡ ψυχή σου ἐπ᾿ αὐτὴν καὶ τῷ πνεύματί σου ὀλισθήσῃς εἰς ἀπώλειαν. |

|
| The physician cutteth off a long disease: and he that is to day a king to morrow shall die. | μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς φίλον ἀρχαῖον, ὁ γὰρ πρόσφατος οὐκ ἔστιν ἔπισος αὐτῷ· οἶνος νέος φίλος νέος· ἐὰν παλαιωθῇ, μετ᾿ εὐφροσύνης πίεσαι αὐτόν. |
|

|
| For when a man is dead, he shall inherit creeping things, beasts, and worms. | μὴ ζηλώσῃς δόξαν ἁμαρτωλοῦ, οὐ γὰρ οἶδας τί ἔσται ἡ καταστροφὴ αὐτοῦ. |
|

|
| The beginning of pride is when one departeth from God, and his heart is turned away from his Maker. | μὴ εὐδοκήσῃς ἐν εὐδοκίᾳ ἀσεβῶν· μνήσθητι ὅτι ἕως ᾅδου οὐ μὴ δικαιωθῶσι. |
|
13
|
13
|
| For pride is the beginning of sin, and he that hath it shall pour out abomination: and therefore the Lord brought upon them strange calamities, and overthrew them utterly. | μακρὰν ἄπεχε ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπου, ὃς ἔχει ἐξουσίαν τοῦ φονεύειν, καὶ οὐ μὴ ὑποπτεύσῃς φόβον θανάτου· κἂν προσέλθῃς, μὴ πλημμελήσῃς, ἵνα μὴ ἀφέληται τὴν ζωήν σου· ἐπίγνωθι ὅτι ἐν μέσῳ παγίδων διαβαίνεις καὶ ἐπὶ ἐπάλξεων πόλεων περιπατεῖς. |
|

|

|
| The Lord hath cast down the thrones of proud princes, and set up the meek in their stead. | κατὰ τὴν ἰσχύν σου στόχασαι τοὺς πλησίον καὶ μετὰ σοφῶν συμβουλεύου. |
|
15
|
15
|
| The Lord hath plucked up the roots of the proud nations, and planted the lowly in their place. | καὶ μετὰ συνετῶν ἔστω ὁ διαλογισμός σου καὶ πᾶσα διήγησίς σου ἐν νόμῳ ῾Υψίστου. |
|
16
|
16
|
| The Lord overthrew countries of the heathen, and destroyed them to the foundations of the earth. | ἄνδρες δίκαιοι ἔστωσαν σύνδειπνοί σου, καὶ ἐν φόβῳ Κυρίου ἔστω τὸ καύχημά σου. |
|
17
|
17
|
| He took some of them away, and destroyed them, and hath made their memorial to cease from the earth. | ἐν χειρὶ τεχνιτῶν ἔργον ἐπαινεθήσεται, καὶ ὁ ἡγούμενος λαοῦ σοφὸς ἐν λόγῳ αὐτοῦ. |
|
18
|
18
|
| Pride was not made for men, nor furious anger for them that are born of a woman. | φοβερὸς ἐν πόλει αὐτοῦ ἀνὴρ γλωσσώδης, καὶ ὁ προπετὴς ἐν λόγῳ αὐτοῦ μισηθήσεται. |
|
19
|
|
| They that fear the Lord are a sure seed, and they that love him an honourable plant: they that regard not the law are a dishonourable seed; they that transgress the commandments are a deceivable seed. | |
|
20
|
|
| Among brethren he that is chief is honourable; so are they that fear the Lord in his eyes. | |
|
22
|
|
| Whether he be rich, noble or poor, their glory is the fear of the Lord. | |
|
23
|
|
| It is not meet to despise the poor man that hath understanding; neither is it convenient to magnify a sinful man. | |
|
24
|
|
| Great men, and judges, and potentates, shall be honoured; yet is there none of them greater than he that feareth the Lord. | |
|
25
|
|
| Unto the servant that is wise shall they that are free do service: and he that hath knowledge will not grudge when he is reformed. | |
|
26
|
|
| Be not overwise in doing thy business; and boast not thyself in the time of thy distress. | |
|
27
|
|
| Better is he that laboureth, and aboundeth in all things, than he that boasteth himself, and wanteth bread. | |
|
28
|
|
| My son, glorify thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to the dignity thereof. | |
|
29
|
|
| Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? and who will honour him that dishonoureth his own life? | |
|
30
|
|
| The poor man is honoured for his skill, and the rich man is honoured for his riches. | |
|
31
|
|
| He that is honoured in poverty, how much more in riches? and he that is dishonourable in riches, how much more in poverty? |
