Chapter 29
|
Κεφάλαιο 29
|
|
1
|
1
|
|
He that is merciful will lend unto his neighbour; and he that strengtheneth his hand keepeth the commandments.
|
Ο ΕΚΔΙΚΩΝ παρὰ Κυρίου εὑρήσει ἐκδίκησιν, καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ διατηρῶν διατηρήσει.
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
Lend to thy neighbour in time of his need, and pay thou thy neighbour again in due season.
|
ἄφες ἀδίκημα τῷ πλησίον σου, καὶ τότε δεηθέντος σου αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου λυθήσονται.
|
|
3
|

|
|
Keep thy word, and deal faithfully with him, and thou shalt always find the thing that is necessary for thee.
|
ἄνθρωπος ἀνθρώπῳ συντηρεῖ ὀργήν, καὶ παρὰ Κυρίου ζητεῖ ἴασιν;
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
Many, when a thing was lent them, reckoned it to be found, and put them to trouble that helped them.
|
ἐπ᾿ ἄνθρωπον ὅμοιον αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔχει ἔλεος, καὶ περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ δεῖται;
|
|
5
|

|
|
Till he hath received, he will kiss a man's hand; and for his neighbour's money he will speak submissively: but when he should repay, he will prolong the time, and return words of grief, and complain of the time.
|
αὐτὸς σὰρξ ὢν διατηρεῖ μῆνιν, τίς ἐξιλάσεται τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ;
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
If he prevail, he shall hardly receive the half, and he will count as if he had found it: if not, he hath deprived him of his money, and he hath gotten him an enemy without cause: he payeth him with cursings and railings; and for honour he will pay him disgrace.
|
μνήσθητι τὰ ἔσχατα καὶ παῦσαι ἐχθραίνων, καταφθορὰν καὶ θάνατον, καὶ ἔμμενε ἐντολαῖς.
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
Many therefore have refused to lend for other men's ill dealing, fearing to be defrauded.
|
μνήσθητι ἐντολῶν καὶ μὴ μηνίσῃς τῷ πλησίον, καὶ διαθήκην ῾Υψίστου καὶ πάριδε ἄγνοιαν.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
Yet have thou patience with a man in poor estate, and delay not to shew him mercy.
|
ἀπόσχου ἀπὸ μάχης, καὶ ἐλαττώσεις ἁμαρτίας· ἄνθρωπος γὰρ θυμώδης ἐκκαύσει μάχην,
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
Help the poor for the commandment's sake, and turn him not away because of his poverty.
|
καὶ ἀνὴρ ἁμαρτωλὸς ταράξει φίλους καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον εἰρηνευόντων ἐμβάλλει διαβολήν.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend, and let it not rust under a stone to be lost.
|
κατὰ τὴν ὕλην τοῦ πυρὸς οὕτως ἐκκαυθήσεται, καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἰσχὺν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ ἔσται, καὶ κατὰ τὸν πλοῦτον ἀνυψώσει ὀργὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ κατὰ τὴν στερέωσιν τῆς μάχης ἐκκαυθήσεται.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
Lay up thy treasure according to the commandments of the most High, and it shall bring thee more profit than gold.
|
ἔρις κατασπευδομένη ἐκκαίει πῦρ, καὶ μάχη κατασπεύδουσα ἐκχέει αἷμα.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
Shut up alms in thy storehouses: and it shall deliver thee from all affliction.
|
ἐὰν φυσήσῃς εἰς σπινθῆρα, ἐκκαήσεται, καὶ ἐὰν πτύσῃς ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν, σβεσθήσεται· καὶ ἀμφότερα ἐκ τοῦ στόματός σου ἐκπορεύεται.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
It shall fight for thee against thine enemies better than a mighty shield and strong spear.
|
Ψίθυρον καὶ δίγλωσσον καταράσασθε, πολλοὺς γὰρ εἰρηνεύοντας ἀπώλεσαν.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
An honest man is surety for his neighbour: but he that is impudent will forsake him.
|
γλῶσσα τρίτη πολλοὺς ἐσάλευσε καὶ διέστησεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ ἔθνους εἰς ἔθνος καὶ πόλεις ὀχυρὰς καθεῖλε καὶ οἰκίας μεγιστάνων κατέστρεψε.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
Forget not the friendship of thy surety, for he hath given his life for thee.
|
γλῶσσα τρίτη γυναῖκας ἀνδρείας ἐξέβαλε καὶ ἐστέρησεν αὐτὰς τῶν πόνων αὐτῶν.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
A sinner will overthrow the good estate of his surety:
|
ὁ προσέχων αὐτῇ οὐ μὴ εὕρῃ ἀνάπαυσιν, οὐδὲ κατασκηνώσει μεθ᾿ ἡσυχίας.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
and he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him in danger that delivered him.
|
πληγὴ μάστιγος ποιεῖ μώλωπας, πληγὴ δὲ γλώσσης συγκλάσει ὀστᾶ.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
Suretyship hath undone many of good estate, and shaken them as a wave of the sea: mighty men hath it driven from their houses, so that they wandered among strange nations.
|
πολλοὶ ἔπεσαν ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας, καὶ οὐχ ὡς οἱ πεπτωκότες διὰ γλῶσσαν.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
A wicked man transgressing the commandments of the Lord shall fall into suretyship: and he that undertaketh and followeth other men's business for gain shall fall into suits.
|
μακάριος ὁ σκεπασθεὶς ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς, ὃς οὐ διῆλθεν ἐν τῷ θυμῷ αὐτῆς, ὃς οὐχ εἵλκυσε τὸν ζυγὸν αὐτῆς καὶ ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς αὐτῆς οὐκ ἐδέθη·
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
Help thy neighbour according to thy power, and beware that thou thyself fall not into the same.
|
ὁ γὰρ ζυγὸς αὐτῆς ζυγὸς σιδηροῦς, καὶ οἱ δεσμοὶ αὐτῆς δεσμοὶ χάλκεοι.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
The chief thing for life is water, and bread, and clothing, and a house to cover shame.
|
θάνατος πονηρὸς ὁ θάνατος αὐτῆς, καὶ λυσιτελὴς μᾶλλον ὁ ᾅδης αὐτῆς. 22οὐ μὴ κρατήσει εὐσεβῶν, καὶ ἐν τῇ φλογὶ αὐτῆς οὐ καήσονται.
|
|
22
|
23
|
|
Better is the life of a poor man in a mean cottage, than delicate fare in another man's house.
|
οἱ καταλείποντες Κύριον ἐμπεσοῦνται εἰς αὐτήν, καὶ ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐκκαήσεται καὶ οὐ μὴ σβεσθῇ· ἐξαποσταλήσεται ἐπ᾿ αὐτοῖς ὡς λέων, καὶ ὡς πάρδαλις λυμανεῖται αὐτούς.
|
|
23
|
24
|
|
Be it little or much, hold thee contented,
|
ἴδε περίφραξον τὸ κτῆμά σου ἀκάνθαις, τὸ ἀργύριόν σου καὶ τὸ χρυσίον κατάδησον·
|
|
24
|
25
|
|
for it is a miserable life to go from house to house: for where thou art a stranger, thou darest not open thy mouth.
|
καὶ τοῖς λόγοις σου ποίησον ζυγὸν καὶ σταθμόν, καὶ τῷ στόματί σου ποίησον θύραν καὶ μοχλόν.
|
|
25
|
26
|
|
Thou shalt entertain, and feast, and have no thanks: moreover thou shalt hear bitter words:
|
πρόσεχε μήπως ὀλισθήσῃς ἐν αὐτῇ, μὴ πέσῃς κατέναντι ἐνεδρεύοντος.
|
|
26
|
|
|
Come, thou stranger, and furnish a table, and feed me of that thou hast ready.
|
|
|
27
|
|
|
Give place, thou stranger, to an honourable man; my brother cometh to be lodged, and I have need of mine house.
|
|
|
28
|
|
|
These things are grievous to a man of understanding; the upbraiding of houseroom, and reproaching of the lender.
