Κεφάλαιο 15

|
| He that feareth the Lord will do good; and he that hath the knowledge of the law shall obtain her; | ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΣ ἀνήρ, ὣς οὐκ ὠλίσθησεν ἐν στόματι αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ κατενύγη ἐν λύπῃ ἁμαρτίας. |
|

|

|
| and as a mother shall she meet him, and receive him as a wife married of a virgin. | μακάριος οὗ οὐ κατέγνω ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὃς οὐκ ἔπεσεν ἀπὸ τῆς ἐλπίδος αὐτοῦ. |
|

|
| With the bread of understanding shall she feed him, and give him the water of wisdom to drink. | ᾿Ανδρὶ μικρολόγῳ οὐ καλὸς ὁ πλοῦτος, καὶ ἀνθρώπῳ βασκάνῳ ἱνατί χρήματα; |
|

|

|
| He shall be stayed upon her, and shall not be moved; and shall rely upon her, and shall not be confounded. | ὁ συνάγων ἀπὸ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ συνάγει ἄλλοις, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς αὐτοῦ τρυφήσουσιν ἕτεροι. |
|

|

|
| She shall exalt him above his neighbours, and in the midst of the congregation shall she open his mouth. | ὁ πονηρὸς ἑαυτῷ τίνι ἀγαθὸς ἔσται; καὶ οὐ μὴ εὐφρανθήσεται ἐν τοῖς χρήμασιν αὐτοῦ. |
|

|

|
| He shall find joy and a crown of gladness, and she shall cause him to inherit an everlasting name. | τοῦ βασκαίνοντος ἑαυτὸν οὐκ ἔστι πονηρότερος, καὶ τοῦτο ἀνταπόδομα τῆς κακίας αὐτοῦ· |
|
7
|
7
|
| But foolish men shall not attain unto her, and sinners shall not see her. | κἂν εὖ ποιῇ, ἐν λήθῃ ποιεῖ, καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἐσχάτων ἐκφαίνει τὴν κακίαν αὐτοῦ. |
|
8
|
8
|
| For she is far from pride, and men that are liars cannot remember her. | πονηρὸς ὁ βασκαίνων ὀφθαλμῷ, ἀποστρέφων πρόσωπον καὶ ὑπερορῶν ψυχάς. |
|

|

|
| Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner, for it was not sent him of the Lord. | πλεονέκτου ὀφθαλμὸς οὐκ ἐμπίπλαται μερίδι, καὶ ἀδικία πονηρὰ ἀναξηραίνει ψυχήν. |
|
10
|
10
|
| For praise shall be uttered in wisdom, and the Lord will prosper it. | ὀφθαλμὸς πονηρὸς φθονερὸς ἐπ᾿ ἄρτῳ καὶ ἐλλιπὴς ἐπὶ τῆς τραπέζης αὐτοῦ. |
|

|

|
| Say not thou, It is through the Lord that I fell away: for thou oughtest not to do the things that he hateth. | Τέκνον, καθὼς ἐὰν ἔχῃς, εὖ ποίει σεαυτὸν καὶ προσφορὰς Κυρίῳ ἀξίως πρόσαγε. |
|
12
|
12
|
| Say not thou, He hath caused me to err: for he hath no need of the sinful man. | μνήσθητι ὅτι θάνατος οὐ χρονιεῖ καὶ διαθήκη ᾅδου οὐχ ὑπεδείχθη σοι· |
|
13
|
13
|
| The Lord hateth all abomination; and they that fear God love it not. | πρίν σε τελευτῆσαι, εὖ ποίει φίλῳ καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἰσχύν σου ἔκτεινον καὶ δῷς αὐτῷ. |
|
14
|
14
|
| He himself made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his counsel; | μὴ ἀφυστερήσῃς ἀπὸ ἀγαθῆς ἡμέρας, καὶ μερὶς ἐπιθυμίας ἀγαθῆς μή σε παρελθάτω. |
|
15
|
15
|
| if thou wilt, to keep the commandments, and to perform acceptable faithfulness. | οὐχὶ ἑτέρῳ καταλείψεις τοὺς πόνους σου καὶ τοὺς κόπους σου εἰς διαίρεσιν κλήρου; |
|
16
|
16
|
| He hath set fire and water before thee: stretch forth thy hand unto whether thou wilt. | δὸς καὶ λάβε καὶ ἀπάτησον τὴν ψυχήν σου, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ᾅδου ζητῆσαι τρυφήν. |
|
17
|

|
| Before man is life and death; and whether he liketh shall be given him. | πᾶσα σὰρξ ὡς ἱμάτιον παλαιοῦται, ἡ γὰρ διαθήκη ἀπ᾿ αἰῶνος· θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ. |
|
18
|
18
|
| For the wisdom of the Lord is great, and he is mighty in power, and beholdeth all things: | ὡς φύλλον θάλλον ἐπὶ δένδρου δασέος, τὰ μὲν καταβάλλει, ἄλλα δὲ φύει, οὕτως γενεὰ σαρκὸς καὶ αἵματος, ἡ μὲν τελευτᾷ, ἑτέρα δὲ γεννᾶται. |
|
19
|

|
| and his eyes are upon them that fear him, and he knoweth every work of man. | πᾶν ἔργον σηπόμενον ἐκλείπει, καὶ ὁ ἐργαζόμενος αὐτὸ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἀπελεύσεται. |
|
20
|

|
| He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, neither hath he given any man licence to sin. | Μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς ἐν σοφίᾳ τελευτήσει καὶ ὃς ἐν συνέσει αὐτοῦ διαλεχθήσεται, |
