Desire not a multitude of unprofitable children, neither delight in ungodly sons.
|
ΟΦΟΒΟΥΜΕΝΟΣ Κύριον ποιήσει αὐτό, καὶ ὁ ἐγκρατὴς τοῦ νόμου καταλήψεται αὐτήν·
|

|
Though they multiply, rejoice not in them, except the fear of the Lord be with them.
|
καὶ ὑπαντήσεται αὐτῷ ὡς μήτηρ καὶ ὡς γυνὴ παρθενίας προσδέξεται αὐτόν.

|
|
Trust not thou in their life, neither respect their multitude: for one that is just is better than a thousand; and better it is to die without children, than to have them that are ungodly.
|
ψωμιεῖ αὐτὸν ἄρτον συνέσεως καὶ ὕδωρ σοφίας ποτίσει αὐτόν.

|
|
For by one that hath understanding shall the city be replenished: but the kindred of the wicked shall speedily become desolate.
|
στηριχθήσεται ἐπ᾿ αὐτὴν καὶ οὐ μὴ κλιθῇ, καὶ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς ἐφέξει καὶ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῇ·
|
|

|

|
|
Many such things have I seen with mine eyes, and mine ear hath heard greater things than these.
|
καὶ ὑψώσει αὐτὸν παρὰ τοὺς πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν μέσῳ ἐκκλησίας ἀνοίξει στόμα αὐτοῦ.
|

|
|
In the congregation of the ungodly shall a fire be kindled; and in a rebellious nation wrath is set on fire.
|
εὐφροσύνην καὶ στέφανον ἀγαλλιάματος καὶ ὄνομα αἰώνιον κατακληρονομήσει.

|
He was not pacified toward the old giants, who fell away in the strength of their foolishness.
|
οὐ μὴ καταλήψονται αὐτὴν ἄνθρωποι ἀσύνετοι, καὶ ἄνδρες ἁμαρτωλοὶ οὐ μὴ ἴδωσιν αὐτήν·
|
|

|

|
|
Neither spared he the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for their pride.
|
μακράν ἐστιν ὑπερηφανίας, καὶ ἄνδρες ψεῦσται οὐ μὴ μνησθήσονται αὐτῆς.
|
|

|
|
He pitied not the people of perdition, who were taken away in their sins:
|
Οὐχ ὡραῖος αἶνος ἐν στόματι ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ὅτι οὐ παρὰ Κυρίου ἀπεστάλη·
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
nor the six hundred thousand footmen, who were gathered together in the hardness of their hearts.
|
ἐν γὰρ σοφίᾳ ρηθήσεται αἶνος, καὶ ὁ Κύριος εὐοδώσει αὐτόν.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
And if there be one stiffnecked among the people, it is marvel if he escape unpunished: for mercy and wrath are with him; he is mighty to forgive and to pour out displeasure.
|
μὴ εἴπῃς ὅτι διὰ Κύριον ἀπέστην· ἃ γὰρ ἐμίσησεν, οὐ ποιήσεις.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
As his mercy is great, so is his correction also: he judgeth a man according to his works.
|
μὴ εἴπῃς ὅτι αὐτός με ἐπλάνησεν· οὐ γὰρ χρείαν ἔχει ἀνδρὸς ἁμαρτωλοῦ.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
The sinner shall not escape with his spoils: and the patience of the godly shall not be frustrate.
|
πᾶν βδέλυγμα ἐμίσησε Κύριος, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀγαπητὸν τοῖς φοβουμένοις αὐτόν.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
Make way for every work of mercy: for every man shall find according to his works.
|
αὐτὸς ἐξ ἀρχῆς ἐποίησεν ἄνθρωπον καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτὸν ἐν χειρὶ διαβουλίου αὐτοῦ.
|
|
17
|
15
|
|
Say not thou, I will hide myself from the Lord: shall any remember me from above? I shall not be remembered among so many people: for what is my soul among such an infinite number of creatures?
|
ἐὰν θέλῃς, συντηρήσεις ἐντολὰς καὶ πίστιν ποίησαι εὐδοκίας.
|
|
18
|
16
|
|
Behold, the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the deep, and the earth, and all that therein is, shall be moved when he shall visit.
|
παρέθηκέ σοι πῦρ καὶ ὕδωρ· οὗ ἐὰν θέλῃς, ἐκτενεῖς τὴν χεῖρά σου.
|
|
19
|
17
|
|
The mountains also and foundations of the earth shall be shaken with trembling, when he looketh upon them.
|
ἔναντι ἀνθρώπων ἡ ζωὴ καὶ ὁ θάνατος, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν εὐδοκήσῃ, δοθήσεται αὐτῷ.
|
|
20
|
18
|
|
No heart can think upon these things worthily: and who is able to conceive his ways?
|
ὅτι πολλὴ σοφία τοῦ Κυρίου· ἰσχυρὸς ἐν δυναστείᾳ καὶ βλέπων τὰ πάντα,
|
|
21
|
19
|
|
It is a tempest which no man can see: for the most part of his works are hid.
|
καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτόν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπιγνώσεται πᾶν ἔργον ἀνθρώπου.
|
|
22
|
20
|
|
Who can declare the works of his justice? or who can endure them? for his covenant is afar off.
|
καὶ οὐκ ἐνετείλατο οὐδενὶ ἀσεβεῖν καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν ἄνεσιν οὐδενὶ ἁμαρτάνειν.
|
|
23
|
|
|
He that wanteth understanding will think upon vain things: and a foolish man erring imagineth follies.
|
|
|
24
|
|
|
My son, hearken unto me, and learn knowledge, and mark my words with thy heart.
|
|
|
25
|
|
|
I will shew forth doctrine in weight, and declare his knowledge exactly.
|
|
|
26
|
|
|
The works of the Lord are done in judgment from the beginning: and from the time he made them he disposed the parts thereof.
|
|
|
27
|
|
|
He garnished his works for ever, and the chief of them unto all generations: they neither labour, nor are weary, nor cease from their works.
|
|
|
28
|
|
|
None of them hindereth another, and they shall never disobey his word.
|
|
|
29
|
|
|
After this the Lord looked upon the earth, and filled it with his blessings.
|
|
|
30
|
|
|
With all manner of living things hath he covered the face thereof; and they shall return into it again.
