Chapter 14
|
|
1
|
1
|
| Ο ΑΠΤΟΜΕΝΟΣ πίσσης μολυνθήσεται, καὶ ὁ κοινωνῶν ὑπερηφάνῳ ὁμοιωθήσεται αὐτῷ. | Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins. |
|
2
|
2
|
| βάρος ὑπὲρ σὲ μὴ ἄρῃς, καὶ ἰσχυροτέρῳ σου καὶ πλουσιωτέρῳ μὴ κοινώνει. τί κοινωνήσει χύτρα πρὸς λέβητα; αὕτη προσκρούσει, καὶ αὕτη συντριβήσεται. | Blessed is he whose conscience hath not condemned him, and who is not fallen from his hope in the Lord. |
|
3
|
3
|
| πλούσιος ἠδίκησε, καὶ αὐτὸς προσενεβριμήσατο· πτωχὸς ἠδίκηται, καὶ αὐτὸς προσδεηθήσεται. | Riches are not comely for a niggard: and what should an envious man do with money? |
|
4
|
4
|
| ἐὰν χρησιμεύσῃς, ἐργᾶται ἐν σοί· καὶ ἐὰν ὑστερήσῃς, καταλείψει σε. | He that gathereth by defrauding his own soul gathereth for others that shall spend his goods riotously. |
|
5
|
5
|
| ἐὰν ἔχῃς, συμβιώσεταί σοι καὶ ἀποκενώσει σε, καὶ αὐτὸς οὐ πονέσει. | He that is evil to himself, to whom will he be good? he shall not take pleasure in his goods. |
|
6
|
6
|
| χρείαν ἔσχηκέ σου, καὶ ἀποπλανήσει σε καὶ προσγελάσεταί σοι καὶ δώσει σοι ἐλπίδα· λαλήσει σοι καλὰ καὶ ἐρεῖ· τίς ἡ χρεία σου; | There is none worse than he that envieth himself; and this is a recompence of his wickedness. |
|
7
|
7
|
| καὶ αἰσχυνεῖ σε ἐν τοῖς βρώμασιν αὐτοῦ, ἕως οὗ ἀποκενώσῃ σε δὶς ἢ τρίς, καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἐσχάτων καταμωκήσεταί σου· μετὰ ταῦτα ὄψεταί σε καὶ καταλείψει σε καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ κινήσει ἐπὶ σοί. | And if he doeth good, he doeth it unwillingly; and at the last he will declare his wickedness. |
|
8
|
8
|
| πρόσεχε μὴ ἀποπλανηθῇς καὶ μὴ ταπεινωθῇς ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ σου. | The envious man hath a wicked eye; he turneth away his face, and despiseth men. |
|
9
|
9
|
| Προσκαλεσαμένου σε δυνάστου, ὑποχωρῶν γίνου, καὶ τόσῳ μᾶλλον προσκαλέσεταί σε. | A covetous man's eye is not satisfied with his portion; and the iniquity of the wicked drieth up his soul. |
|
10
|
10
|
| μὴ ἔμπιπτε, ἵνα μὴ ἀπωσθῇς, καὶ μὴ μακρὰν ἀφίστω, ἵνα μὴ ἐπιλησθῇς. | A wicked eye envieth his bread, and he is a niggard at his table. |
|
11
|
11
|
| μὴ ἔπεχε ἰσηγορεῖσθαι μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ μὴ πίστευε τοῖς πλείοσι λόγοις αὐτοῦ· ἐκ πολλῆς γὰρ λαλιᾶς πειράσει σε καὶ ὡς προσγελῶν ἐξετάσει σε. | My son, according to thy ability do good to thyself, and give the Lord his due offering. |
|
12
|
12
|
| ἀνελεήμων ὁ μὴ συντηρῶν λόγους καὶ οὐ μὴ φείσηται περὶ κακώσεως καὶ δεσμῶν. | Remember that death will not be long in coming, and that the covenant of the grave is not shewed unto thee. |
|
13
|
13
|
| συντήρησον καὶ πρόσεχε σφοδρῶς, ὅτι μετὰ τῆς πτώσεώς σου περιπατεῖς. [ | Do good unto thy friend before thou die, and according to thy ability stretch out thy hand and give to him. |
|
14
|
14
|
| ἀκούων αὐτὰ ἐν ὕπνῳ σου γρηγόρησον· πάσῃ ζωῇ σου ἀγάπα τὸν Κύριον, καὶ ἐπικαλοῦ αὐτὸν εἰς σωτηρίαν σου]. | Defraud not thyself of the good day, and let not the part of a good desire overpass thee. |
|
15
|
15
|
| Πᾶν ζῷον ἀγαπᾷ τὸ ὅμοιον αὐτῷ καὶ πᾶς ἄνθρωπος τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ· | Shalt thou not leave thy travails unto another? and thy labours to be divided by lot? |
|
16
|
16
|
| πᾶσα σὰρξ κατὰ γένος συνάγεται, καὶ τῷ ὁμοίῳ αὐτοῦ προσκολληθήσεται ἀνήρ. | Give, and take, and sanctify thy soul; for there is no seeking of dainties in the grave. |
|
17
|
17
|
| τί κοινωνήσει λύκος ἀμνῷ; οὕτως ἁμαρτωλὸς πρὸς εὐσεβῆ. | All flesh waxeth old as a garment: for the covenant from the beginning is, Thou shalt die the death. |
|
18
|
18
|
| τίς εἰρήνη ὑαίνῃ πρὸς κύνα; καὶ τίς εἰρήνη πλουσίῳ πρὸς πένητα; | As of the green leaves on a thick tree, some fall, and some grow: so is the generation of flesh and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born. |
|
19
|
19
|
| κυνήγια λεόντων ὄναγροι ἐν ἐρήμῳ, οὕτως νομαὶ πλουσίων πτωχοί. | Every work rotteth and consumeth away, and the worker thereof shall go withal. |
|
20
|
20
|
| βδέλυγμα ὑπερηφάνῳ ταπεινότης, οὕτως βδέλυγμα πλουσίῳ πτωχός. | Blessed is the man that doth meditate good things in wisdom, and that reasoneth of holy things by his understanding. |
|
21
|
21
|
| πλούσιος σαλευόμενος στηρίζεται ὑπὸ φίλων, ταπεινὸς δὲ πεσὼν προσαπωθεῖται ὑπὸ φίλων. | He that considereth her ways in his heart shall also have understanding in her secrets. |
|
22
|
22
|
| πλουσίου σφαλέντος πολλοὶ ἀντιλήπτορες, ἐλάλησεν ἀπόρρητα καὶ ἐδικαίωσαν αὐτόν. ταπεινὸς ἔσφαλε καὶ προσεπετίμησαν αὐτῷ, ἐφθέγξατο σύνεσιν καὶ οὐκ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ τόπος. | Go after her as one that traceth, and lie in wait in her ways. |
|
23
|
23
|
| πλούσιος ἐλάλησε καὶ πάντες ἐσίγησαν, καὶ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ ἀνύψωσαν ἕως τῶν νεφελῶν. πτωχὸς ἐλάλησε καὶ εἶπαν· τίς οὗτος; κἂν προσκόψῃ, προσανατρέψουσιν αὐτόν. | He that prieth in at her windows shall also hearken at her doors. |
|
24
|
24
|
| ἀγαθὸς ὁ πλοῦτος, ᾧ μή ἐστιν ἁμαρτία, καὶ πονηρὰ ἡ πτωχεία ἐν στόματι ἀσεβοῦς. | He that doth lodge near her house shall also fasten a pin in her walls. |
|
25
|
25
|
| Καρδία ἀνθρώπου ἀλλοιοῖ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, ἐάν τε εἰς ἀγαθὰ ἐάν τε εἰς κακά. | He shall pitch his tent nigh unto her, and shall lodge in a lodging where good things are. |
|
26
|
26
|
| ἴχνος καρδίας ἐν ἀγαθοῖς πρόσωπον ἱλαρόν, καὶ εὕρεσις παραβολῶν διαλογισμοὶ μετὰ κόπου. | He shall set his children under her shelter, and shall lodge under her branches. |
