|
ΑΙΡΕΤΩΤΕΡΟΝ ὄνομα καλὸν ἢ πλοῦτος πολύς, ὑπὲρ δὲ ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον χάρις ἀγαθή,
|
A fair name is better than much wealth, and good favour is above silver and gold.
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
πλούσιος καὶ πτωχὸς συνήντησαν ἀλλήλοις, ἀμφοτέρους δὲ ὁ Κύριος ἐποίησε.
|
The rich and the poor meet together; but the Lord made them both.
|
|

|
3
|
|
πανοῦργος ἱδὼν πονηρὸν τιμωρούμενον κραταιῶς αὐτὸς παιδεύεται, οἱ δὲ ἄφρονες παρελθόντες ἐζημιώθησαν.
|
An intelligent man seeing a bad man severely punished is himself instructed, but fools pass by and are punished.
|
|

|
4
|
|
γενεὰ σοφίας φόβος Κυρίου καὶ πλοῦτος καὶ δόξα καὶ ζωή.
|
The fear of the Lord is the offspring of wisdom, and wealth, and glory, and life.
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
τρίβολοι καὶ παγίδες ἐν ὁδοῖς σκολιαῖς, ὁ δὲ φυλάσσων τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχὴν ἀφέξεται αὐτῶν.
|
Thistles and snares are in perverse ways; but he that keeps his soul will refrain from them.
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
πλούσιοι πτωχῶν ἄρξουσι, καὶ οἰκέται ἰδίοις δεσπόταις δανειοῦσι.
|
The rich will rule over the poor, and servants will lend to their own masters.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
ὁ σπείρων φαῦλα θερίσει κακά, πληγὴν δὲ ἔργων αὐτοῦ συντελέσει. 8α ἄνδρα ἱλαρὸν καὶ δότην εὐλογεῖ ὁ Θεός, ματαιότητα δὲ ἔργων αὐτοῦ συντελέσει.
|
He that sows wickedness shall reap troubles; and shall fully receive the punishment of his deeds. God loves a cheerful and liberal man; but a man shall fully prove the folly of his works.
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
ὁ ἐλεῶν πτωχὸν αὐτὸς διατραφήσεται, τῶν γὰρ ἑαυτοῦ ἄρτων ἔδωκε τῷ πτωχῷ. 9α νίκην καὶ τιμὴν περιποιεῖται ὁ δῶρα δούς, τὴν μέντοι ψυχὴν ἀφαιρεῖται τῶν κεκτημένων.
|
He that has pity on the poor shall himself be maintained; for he has given of his own bread to the poor. He that gives liberally secures victory and honour; but he takes away the life of them that possess them.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
ἔκβαλε ἐκ συνεδρίου λοιμόν, καὶ συνεξελεύσεται αὐτῷ νεῖκος· ὅταν γὰρ καθίσῃ ἐν συνεδρίῳ, πάντας ἀτιμάζει.
|
Cast out a pestilent person from the council, and strife shall go out with him; for when he sits in the council he dishonours all.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
ἀγαπᾷ Κύριος ὁσίας καρδίας, δεκτοὶ δὲ αὐτῷ πάντες ἄμωμοι· χείλεσι ποιμαίνει βασιλεύς.
|
The Lord loves holy hearts, and all blameless persons are acceptable with him: a king rules with his lips.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ Κυρίου διατηροῦσιν αἴσθησιν, φαυλίζει δὲ λόγους παράνομος.
|
But the eyes of the Lord preserve discretion; but the transgressor despises wise words.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
προφασίζεται καὶ λέγει ὀκνηρός· λέων ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς, ἐν δὲ ταῖς πλατείαις φονευταί.
|
The sluggard makes excuses, and says, There is a lion in the ways, and murderers in the streets.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
βόθρος βαθὺς στόμα παρανόμου, ὁ δὲ μισηθεὶς ὑπὸ Κυρίου ἐμπεσεῖται εἰς αὐτόν. 14α εἰσὶν ὁδοὶ κακαὶ ἐνώπιον ἀνδρός, καὶ οὐκ ἀγαπᾷ τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν· ἀποστρέφειν δὲ δεῖ ἀπὸ ὁδοῦ σκολιᾶς καὶ κακῆς.
|
The mouth of a transgressor is a deep pit; and he that is hated of the Lord shall fall into it. Evil ways are before a man, and he does not like to turn away from them; but it is needful to turn aside from a perverse and bad way.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
ἄνοια ἐξῆπται καρδίας νέου, ράβδος δὲ καὶ παιδεία μακρὰν ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
|
Folly is attached to the heart of a child, but the rod and instruction are then far from him.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
ὁ συκοφαντῶν πένητα πολλὰ ποιεῖ τὰ ἑαυτοῦ· δίδωσι δὲ πλουσίῳ ἐπ᾿ ἐλλάσσονι.
|
He that oppresses the poor, increases his own substance, yet gives to the rich so as to make it less.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
Λόγοις σοφῶν παράβαλλε σὸν οὗς καὶ ἄκουε ἐμὸν λόγον, τὴν δὲ σὴν καρδίαν ἐπίστησον, ἵνα γνῷς, ὅτι καλοί εἰσι·
|
Incline thine ear to the words of wise men: hear also my word, and apply thine heart,
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
καὶ ἐὰν ἐμβάλῃς αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν καρδίαν σου, εὐφρανοῦσί σε ἅμα ἐπὶ σοῖς χείλεσιν,
|
that thou mayest know that they are good: and if thou lay them to heart, they shall also gladden thee on thy lips.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
ἵνα σου γένηται ἐπὶ Κύριον ἡ ἐλπὶς καὶ γνωρίσῃ σοι τὴν ὁδόν σου.
|
That thy hope may be in the Lord, and he may make thy way known to thee.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
καὶ σὺ δὲ ἀπόγραψαι αὐτὰ σεαυτῷ τρισσῶς εἰς βουλὴν καὶ γνῶσιν ἐπὶ τὸ πλάτος τῆς καρδίας σου.
|
And do thou too repeatedly record them for thyself on the table of thine heart, for counsel and knowledge.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
διδάσκω οὖν σε ἀληθῆ λόγον καὶ γνῶσιν ἀγαθὴν ὑπακούειν, τοῦ ἀποκρίνεσθαί σε λόγους ἀληθείας τοῖς προβαλλομένοις σοι.
|
I therefore teach thee truth, and knowledge good to hear; that thou mayest answer words of truth to them that question thee.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
Μὴ ἀποβιάζου πένητα, πτωχὸς γάρ ἐστι, καὶ μὴ ἀτιμάσῃς ἀσθενῆ ἐν πύλαις·
|
Do no violence to the poor, for he is needy: neither dishonour the helpless man in the gates.
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
ὁ γὰρ Κύριος κρινεῖ αὐτοῦ τὴν κρίσιν, καὶ ρύσῃ σὴν ἄσυλον ψυχήν.
|
For the Lord will plead his cause, and thou shalt deliver thy soul in safety.
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
μὴ ἴσθι ἑταῖρος ἀνδρὶ θυμώδει, φίλῳ δὲ ὀργίλῳ μὴ συναυλίζου,
|
Be not companion to a furious man; neither lodge with a passionate man:
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
μήποτε μάθῃς τῶν ὁδῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ λάβῃς βρόχους τῇ σῇ ψυχῇ.
|
lest thou learn of his ways, and get snares to thy soul.
|
|
26
|
26
|
|
μὴ δίδου σεαυτὸν εἰς ἐγγύην αἰσχυνόμενος πρόσωπον·
|
Become not surety from respect of a man's person.
|
|
27
|
27
|
|
ἐὰν γὰρ μὴ ἔχῃς πόθεν ἀποτίσῃς, λήψονται τὸ στρῶμα τὸ ὑπὸ τὰς πλευράς σου.
|
For if those have not whence to give compensation, they will take the bed that is under thee.
|
|
28
|
28
|
|
μὴ μέταιρε ὅρια αἰώνια, ἃ ἔθεντο οἱ πατέρες σου.
|
Remove not the old landmarks, which thy fathers placed.
|
|
29
|
29
|
|
ὁρατικὸν ἄνδρα καὶ ὀξὺν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ βασιλεῦσι δεῖ παρεστάναι καὶ μὴ παρεστάναι ἀνδράσι νωθροῖς.
|
It is fit that an observant man and one diligent in his business should attend on kings, and not attend on slothful men.
