|
ΣΥ τὴν σοφίαν κηρύξεις, ἵνα φρόνησίς σοι ὑπακούσῃ·
|
Thou shalt proclaim wisdom, that understanding may be obedient to thee.
|

|
ἐπὶ γὰρ τῶν ὑψηλῶν ἄκρων ἐστίν, ἀνὰ μέσον δὲ τῶν τρίβων ἕστηκε·
|
For she is on lofty eminences, and stands in the midst of the ways.
|
|

|
3
|
|
παρὰ γὰρ πύλαις δυναστῶν παρεδρεύει, ἐν δὲ εἰσόδοις ὑμνεῖται.
|
For she sits by the gates of princes, and sings in the entrances, saying,
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
῾Υμᾶς, ὦ ἄνθρωποι, παρακαλῶ, καὶ προΐεμαι ἐμὴν φωνὴν υἱοῖς ἀνθρώπων·
|
You, O men, I exhort; and utter my voice to the sons of men.
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
νοήσατε, ἄκακοι, πανουργίαν, οἱ δὲ ἀπαίδευτοι ἔνθεσθε καρδίαν.
|
O ye simple, understand subtlety, and ye that are untaught, imbibe knowledge.
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
εἰσακούσατέ μου, σεμνὰ γὰρ ἐρῶ καὶ ἀνοίσω ἀπὸ χειλέων ὀρθά·
|
Hearken to me; for I will speak solemn truths; and will produce right sayings from my lips.
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
ὅτι ἀλήθειαν μελετήσει ὁ φάρυγξ μου, ἐβδελυγμένα δὲ ἐναντίον ἐμοῦ χείλη ψευδῆ.
|
For my throat shall meditate truth; and false lips are an abomination before me.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
μετὰ δικαιοσύνης πάντα τὰ ρήματα τοῦ στόματός μου, οὐδὲν ἐν αὐτοῖς σκολιὸν οὐδὲ στραγγαλιῶδες·
|
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing in them wrong or perverse.
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
πάντα ἐνώπια τοῖς συνιοῦσι καὶ ὀρθὰ τοῖς εὑρίσκουσι γνῶσιν.
|
They are all evident to those that understand, and right to those that find knowledge.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
λάβετε παιδείαν καὶ μὴ ἀργύριον, καὶ γνῶσιν ὑπὲρ χρυσίον δεδοκιμασμένον·
|
Receive instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than tried gold.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
κρείσσων γὰρ σοφία λίθων πολυτελῶν, πᾶν δὲ τίμιον οὐκ ἄξιον αὐτῆς ἐστιν.
|
For wisdom is better than precious stones; and no valuable substance is of equal worth with it.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
ἐγὼ ἡ σοφία κατεσκήνωσα βουλήν, καὶ γνῶσιν καὶ ἔννοιαν ἐγὼ ἐπεκαλεσάμην.
|
I wisdom have dwelt with counsel and knowledge, and I have called upon understanding.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
φόβος Κυρίου μισεῖ ἀδικίαν, ὕβριν τε καὶ ὑπερηφανίαν καὶ ὁδοὺς πονηρῶν· μεμίσηκα δὲ ἐγὼ διεστραμμένας ὁδοὺς κακῶν.
|
The fear of the Lord hates unrighteousness, and insolence, and pride, and the ways of wicked men; and I hate the perverse ways of bad men.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
ἐμὴ βουλὴ καὶ ἀσφάλεια, ἐμὴ φρόνησις, ἐμὴ δὲ ἰσχύς·
|
Counsel and safety are mine: prudence is mine, and strength is mine.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
δι᾿ ἐμοῦ βασιλεῖς βασιλεύουσι καὶ οἱ δυνάσται γράφουσι δικαιοσύνην·
|
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
δι᾿ ἐμοῦ μεγιστᾶνες μεγαλύνονται, καὶ τύραννοι δι᾿ ἐμοῦ κρατοῦσι γῆς.
|
By me nobles become great, and monarchs by me rule over the earth.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
ἐγὼ τοὺς ἐμὲ φιλοῦντας ἀγαπῶ, οἱ δὲ ἐμὲ ζητοῦντες εὑρήσουσι χάριν.
|
I love those that love me; and they that seek me shall find me.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
πλοῦτος καὶ δόξα ἐμοὶ ὑπάρχει καὶ κτῆσις πολλῶν καὶ δικαιοσύνη.
|
Wealth and glory belong to me; yea, abundant possessions and righteousness.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
βέλτιον ἐμὲ καρπίζεσθαι ὑπὲρ χρυσίον καὶ λίθον τίμιον, τὰ δὲ ἐμὰ γεννήματα κρείσσω ἀργυρίου ἐκλεκτοῦ.
|
It is better to have my fruit than to have gold and precious stones; and my produce is better than choice silver.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
ἐν ὁδοῖς δικαιοσύνης περιπατῶ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τρίβων δικαιοσύνης ἀναστρέφομαι,
|
I walk in ways of righteousness, and am conversant with the paths of judgment;
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
ἵνα μερίσω τοῖς ἐμὲ ἀγαπῶσιν ὕπαρξιν καὶ τοὺς θησαυροὺς αὐτῶν ἐμπλήσω ἀγαθῶν. ἐὰν ἀναγγείλω ὑμῖν τὰ καθ᾿ ἡμέραν γινόμενα, μνημονεύσω τὰ ἐξ αἰῶνος ἀριθμῆσαι.
|
that I may divide substance to them that love me, and may fill their treasures with good things. If I declare to you the things that daily happen, I will remember also to recount the things of old.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
Κύριος ἔκτισέ με ἀρχὴν ὁδῶν αὐτοῦ εἰς ἔργα αὐτοῦ,
|
The Lord made me the beginning of his ways for his works.
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
πρὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος ἐθεμελίωσέ με ἐν ἀρχῇ, πρὸ τοῦ τὴν γῆν ποιῆσαι
|
He established me before time was in the beginning, before he made the earth:
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
καὶ πρὸ τοῦ τὰς ἀβύσους ποιῆσαι, πρὸ τοῦ προελθεῖν τὰς πηγὰς τῶν ὑδάτων,
|
even before he made the depths; before the fountains of water came forth:
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
πρὸ τοῦ ὄρη ἑδρασθῆναι, πρὸ δὲ πάντων βουνῶν γεννᾷ με.
|
before the mountains were settled, and before all hills, he begets me.
|
|
26
|
26
|
|
Κύριος ἐποίησε χώρας καὶ ἀοικήτους καὶ ἄκρα οἰκούμενα τῆς ὑπ᾿ οὐρανόν.
|
The Lord made countries and uninhabited tracts, and the highest inhabited parts of the world.
|
|
27
|
27
|
|
ἡνίκα ἡτοίμαζε τὸν οὐρανόν, συμπαρήμην αὐτῷ, καὶ ὅτε ἀφώριζε τὸν ἑαυτοῦ θρόνον ἐπ᾿ ἀνέμων·
|
When he prepared the heaven, I was present with him; and when he prepared his throne upon the winds:
|
|
28
|
28
|
|
ἡνίκα ἰσχυρὰ ἐποίει τὰ ἄνω νέφη, καὶ ὡς ἀσφαλεῖς ἐτίθει πηγὰς τῆς ὑπ᾿ οὐρανὸν
|
and when he strengthened the clouds above; and when he secured the fountains of the earth:
|
|
29
|
29
|
|
καὶ ἰσχυρὰ ἐποίει τὰ θεμέλια τῆς γῆς,
|
and when he strengthened the foundations of the earth:
|
|
30
|
30
|
|
ἤμην παρ᾿ αὐτῷ ἁρμόζουσα. ἐγὼ ἤμην ᾗ προσέχαιρε, καθ᾿ ἡμέραν δὲ εὐφραινόμην ἐν προσώπῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ,
|
I was by him, suiting myself to him, I was that wherein he took delight; and daily I rejoiced in his presence continually.
|
|
31
|
31
|
|
ὅτε ἐνευφραίνετο τὴν οἰκουμένην συντελέσας, καὶ ἐνευφραίνετο ἐν υἱοῖς ἀνθρώπων.
|
For he rejoiced when he had completed the world, and rejoiced among the children of men.
|
|
32
|
32
|
|
νῦν οὖν, υἱέ, ἄκουέ μου καὶ μακάριοι, οἳ ὁδούς μου φυλάσσοντες,
|
Now then, my son, hear me: blessed is the man who shall hearken to me, and the mortal who shall keep my ways;
|
|
33
|
34
|
|
ἀκούσατε παιδείαν καὶ σοφίσθητε καὶ μὴ ἀποφραγῆτε.
|
watching daily at my doors, waiting at the posts of my entrances.
|
|
34
|
35
|
|
μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς εἰσακούεταί μου, καὶ ἄνθρωπος, ὃς τὰς ἐμὰς ὁδοὺς φυλάξει ἀγρυπνῶν ἐπ᾿ ἐμαῖς θύραις καθ᾿ ἡμέραν, τηρῶν σταθμοὺς ἐμῶν εἰσόδων·
|
For my outgoings are the outgoings of life, and in them is prepared favour from the Lord.
|
|
35
|
36
|
|
αἱ γὰρ ἔξοδοί μου ἔξοδοι ζωῆς, καὶ ἑτοιμάζεται θέλησις παρὰ Κυρίου.
|
But they that sin against me act wickedly against their own souls: and they that hate me love death.
|
|
36
|
|
|
οἱ δὲ ἁμαρτάνοντες εἰς ἐμὲ ἀσεβοῦσιν εἰς τὰ ἑαυτῶν ψυχάς, καὶ οἱ μισοῦντές με ἀγαπῶσι θάνατον.
