|
| ΜΥΙΑΙ θανατοῦσαι σαπριοῦσι σκευασίαν ἐλαίου ἡδύσματος· τίμιον ὀλίγον σοφίας ὑπὲρ δόξαν ἀφροσύνης μεγάλην, | Pestilent flies will corrupt a preparation of sweet ointment: and a little wisdom is more precious than great glory of folly. |
|

|
2
|
| καρδία σοφοῦ εἰς δεξιὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ καρδία ἄφρονος εἰς ἀριστερὸν αὐτοῦ· | A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left. |
|

|
3
|
| καί γε ἐν ὁδῷ ὅταν ἄφρων πορεύηται, καρδία αὐτοῦ ὑστερήσει, καὶ ἃ λογιεῖται πάντα ἀφροσύνη ἐστίν. | Yea, and whenever a fool walks by the way, his heart will fail him, and all that he thinks of is folly. |
|

4
|
| ἐὰν πνεῦμα τοῦ ἐξουσιάζοντος ἀναβῇ ἐπὶ σέ, τόπον σου μὴ ἀφῇς, ὅτι ἴαμα καταπαύσει ἁμαρτίας μεγάλας. | If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for soothing will put an end to great offences. |
|
5
|
5
|
| ἔστι πονηρία, ἣν εἶδον ὑπὸ τὸν ἥλιον, ὡς ἀκούσιον ὃ ἐξῆλθεν ἀπὸ προσώπου ἐξουσιάζοντος· | There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, wherein an error has proceeded from the ruler. |
|
6
|
6
|
| ἐδόθη ὁ ἄφρων ἐν ὕψεσι μεγάλοις, καὶ πλούσιοι ἐν ταπεινῷ καθήσονται. | The fool has been set in very high places, while rich men would sit in a low one. |
|
7
|
7
|
| εἶδον δούλους ἐφ᾿ ἵππους καὶ ἄρχοντας πορευομένους ὡς δούλους ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς. | I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants on the earth. |
|

8
|
| ὁ ὀρύσσων βόθρον εἰς αὐτὸν ἐμπεσεῖται, καὶ καθαιροῦντα φραγμόν, δήξεται αὐτὸν ὄφις. | He that digs a pit shall fall into it; and him that breaks down a hedge a serpent shall bite. |
|
9
|
9
|
| ἐξαίρων λίθους διαπονηθήσεται ἐν αὐτοῖς, σχίζων ξύλα κινδυνεύσει ἐν αὐτοῖς. | He that removes stones shall be troubled thereby; he that cleaves wood shall be endangered thereby. |
|
10
|
10
|
| ἐὰν ἐκπέσῃ τὸ σιδήριον, καὶ αὐτὸς πρόσωπον ἐτάραξε, καὶ δυνάμεις δυναμώσει, καὶ περισσεία τοῦ ἀνδρείου σοφία. | If the axe-head should fall off, then the man troubles his countenance, and he must put forth more strength: and in that case skill is of no advantage to a man. |
|
11
|
11
|
| ἐὰν δάκῃ ὄφις ἐν οὐ ψιθυρισμῷ, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι περισσεία τῷ ἐπᾴδοντι. | If a serpent bite when there is no charmer's whisper, then there is no advantage to the charmer. |
|
12
|
12
|
| λόγοι στόματος σοφοῦ χάρις, καὶ χείλη ἄφρονος καταποντιοῦσιν αὐτόν· | The words of a wise mouth are gracious: but the lips of a fool will swallow him up. |
|
13
|
13
|
| ἀρχὴ λόγων στόματος αὐτοῦ ἀφροσύνη, καὶ ἐσχάτη στόματος αὐτοῦ περιφέρεια πονηρά, | The beginning of the words of his mouth is folly: and the end of his talk mischievous madness. |
|
14
|
14
|
| καὶ ὁ ἄφρων πληθύνει λόγους, οὐκ ἔγνω ἄνθρωπος τί τὸ γενόμενον, καὶ τί τὸ ἐσόμενον, ὅτι ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ, τίς ἀναγγελεῖ αὐτῷ; | A fool moreover multiplies words: man knows not what has been, nor what will be: who shall tell him what will come after him? |
|
15
|
15
|
| μόχθος τῶν ἀφρόνων κοπώσει αὐτούς, ὃς οὐκ ἔγνω τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς πόλιν. | The labour of fools will afflict them, as that of one who knows not to go to the city. |
|
16
|
16
|
| οὐαί σοι, πόλις, ἧς ὁ βασιλεύς σου νεώτερος καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντές σου πρωΐ ἐσθίουσι. | Woe to thee, O city, whose king is young, and thy princes eat in the morning! |
|
17
|
17
|
| μακαρία σύ, γῆ, ἧς ὁ βασιλεύς σου υἱὸς ἐλευθέρων καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντές σου πρὸς καιρὸν φάγονται ἐν δυνάμει καὶ οὐκ αἰσχυνθήσονται. | Blessed art thou, O land, whose king is a son of nobles, and whose princes shall eat seasonably, for strength, and shall not be ashamed. |
|
18
|
18
|
| ἐν ὀκνηρίαις ταπεινωθήσεται ἡ δόκωσις, καὶ ἐν ἀργίᾳ χειρῶν στάξει ἡ οἰκία. | By slothful neglect a building will be brought low: and by idleness of the hands the house will fall to pieces. |
|
19
|
19
|
| εἰς γέλωτα ποιοῦσιν ἄρτον καὶ οἶνον καὶ ἔλαιον τοῦ εὐφρανθῆναι ζῶντας, καὶ τοῦ ἀργυρίου ταπεινώσει ἐπακούσεται τὰ πάντα. | Men prepare bread for laughter, and wine and oil that the living should rejoice: but to money all things will humbly yield obedience. |
|
20
|
20
|
| καί γε ἐν συνειδήσει σου βασιλέα μὴ καταράσῃ, καὶ ἐν ταμιείοις κοιτώνων σου μὴ καταράσῃ πλούσιον· ὅτι πετεινὸν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἀποίσει σὺν τὴν φωνήν σου, καὶ ὁ ἔχων τὰς πτέρυγας ἀπαγγελεῖ λόγον σου. | Even in thy conscience, curse not the king; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry thy voice, and that which has wings shall report thy speech. |
