Chapter 15
|
|
1
|
1
|
| ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΣ ἀνήρ, ὣς οὐκ ὠλίσθησεν ἐν στόματι αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ κατενύγη ἐν λύπῃ ἁμαρτίας. | He that feareth the Lord will do good; and he that hath the knowledge of the law shall obtain her; |
|
2
|
2
|
| μακάριος οὗ οὐ κατέγνω ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὃς οὐκ ἔπεσεν ἀπὸ τῆς ἐλπίδος αὐτοῦ. | and as a mother shall she meet him, and receive him as a wife married of a virgin. |
|
3
|
3
|
| ᾿Ανδρὶ μικρολόγῳ οὐ καλὸς ὁ πλοῦτος, καὶ ἀνθρώπῳ βασκάνῳ ἱνατί χρήματα; | With the bread of understanding shall she feed him, and give him the water of wisdom to drink. |
|
4
|
4
|
| ὁ συνάγων ἀπὸ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ συνάγει ἄλλοις, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς αὐτοῦ τρυφήσουσιν ἕτεροι. | He shall be stayed upon her, and shall not be moved; and shall rely upon her, and shall not be confounded. |
|
5
|
5
|
| ὁ πονηρὸς ἑαυτῷ τίνι ἀγαθὸς ἔσται; καὶ οὐ μὴ εὐφρανθήσεται ἐν τοῖς χρήμασιν αὐτοῦ. | She shall exalt him above his neighbours, and in the midst of the congregation shall she open his mouth. |
|
6
|
6
|
| τοῦ βασκαίνοντος ἑαυτὸν οὐκ ἔστι πονηρότερος, καὶ τοῦτο ἀνταπόδομα τῆς κακίας αὐτοῦ· | He shall find joy and a crown of gladness, and she shall cause him to inherit an everlasting name. |
|
7
|
7
|
| κἂν εὖ ποιῇ, ἐν λήθῃ ποιεῖ, καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἐσχάτων ἐκφαίνει τὴν κακίαν αὐτοῦ. | But foolish men shall not attain unto her, and sinners shall not see her. |
|
8
|
8
|
| πονηρὸς ὁ βασκαίνων ὀφθαλμῷ, ἀποστρέφων πρόσωπον καὶ ὑπερορῶν ψυχάς. | For she is far from pride, and men that are liars cannot remember her. |
|
9
|
9
|
| πλεονέκτου ὀφθαλμὸς οὐκ ἐμπίπλαται μερίδι, καὶ ἀδικία πονηρὰ ἀναξηραίνει ψυχήν. | Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner, for it was not sent him of the Lord. |
|
10
|
10
|
| ὀφθαλμὸς πονηρὸς φθονερὸς ἐπ᾿ ἄρτῳ καὶ ἐλλιπὴς ἐπὶ τῆς τραπέζης αὐτοῦ. | For praise shall be uttered in wisdom, and the Lord will prosper it. |
|
11
|
11
|
| Τέκνον, καθὼς ἐὰν ἔχῃς, εὖ ποίει σεαυτὸν καὶ προσφορὰς Κυρίῳ ἀξίως πρόσαγε. | Say not thou, It is through the Lord that I fell away: for thou oughtest not to do the things that he hateth. |
|
12
|
12
|
| μνήσθητι ὅτι θάνατος οὐ χρονιεῖ καὶ διαθήκη ᾅδου οὐχ ὑπεδείχθη σοι· | Say not thou, He hath caused me to err: for he hath no need of the sinful man. |
|
13
|
13
|
| πρίν σε τελευτῆσαι, εὖ ποίει φίλῳ καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἰσχύν σου ἔκτεινον καὶ δῷς αὐτῷ. | The Lord hateth all abomination; and they that fear God love it not. |
|
14
|
14
|
| μὴ ἀφυστερήσῃς ἀπὸ ἀγαθῆς ἡμέρας, καὶ μερὶς ἐπιθυμίας ἀγαθῆς μή σε παρελθάτω. | He himself made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his counsel; |
|
15
|
15
|
| οὐχὶ ἑτέρῳ καταλείψεις τοὺς πόνους σου καὶ τοὺς κόπους σου εἰς διαίρεσιν κλήρου; | if thou wilt, to keep the commandments, and to perform acceptable faithfulness. |
|
16
|
16
|
| δὸς καὶ λάβε καὶ ἀπάτησον τὴν ψυχήν σου, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ᾅδου ζητῆσαι τρυφήν. | He hath set fire and water before thee: stretch forth thy hand unto whether thou wilt. |
|
17
|
17
|
| πᾶσα σὰρξ ὡς ἱμάτιον παλαιοῦται, ἡ γὰρ διαθήκη ἀπ᾿ αἰῶνος· θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ. | Before man is life and death; and whether he liketh shall be given him. |
|
18
|
18
|
| ὡς φύλλον θάλλον ἐπὶ δένδρου δασέος, τὰ μὲν καταβάλλει, ἄλλα δὲ φύει, οὕτως γενεὰ σαρκὸς καὶ αἵματος, ἡ μὲν τελευτᾷ, ἑτέρα δὲ γεννᾶται. | For the wisdom of the Lord is great, and he is mighty in power, and beholdeth all things: |
|
19
|
19
|
| πᾶν ἔργον σηπόμενον ἐκλείπει, καὶ ὁ ἐργαζόμενος αὐτὸ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἀπελεύσεται. | and his eyes are upon them that fear him, and he knoweth every work of man. |
|
20
|
20
|
| Μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς ἐν σοφίᾳ τελευτήσει καὶ ὃς ἐν συνέσει αὐτοῦ διαλεχθήσεται, | He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, neither hath he given any man licence to sin. |
|
21
|
|
| ὁ διανοούμενος τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῆς ἐν καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀποκρύφοις αὐτῆς νοηθήσεται. | |
|
22
|
|
| ἔξελθε ὀπίσω αὐτῆς ὡς ἰχνευτής, καὶ ἐν ταῖς εἰσόδοις αὐτῆς ἐνέδρευε. | |
|
23
|
|
| ὁ παρακύπτων διὰ τῶν θυρίδων αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν θυρωμάτων αὐτῆς ἀκροάσεται. | |
|
24
|
|
| ὁ καταλύων σύνεγγυς τοῦ οἴκου αὐτῆς καὶ πήξει πάσσαλον ἐν τοῖς τοίχοις αὐτῆς, | |
|
25
|
|
| στήσει τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ κατὰ χεῖρας αὐτῆς καὶ καταλύσει ἐν καταλύματι ἀγαθῶν· | |
|
26
|
|
| θήσει τὰ τέκνα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ σκέπῃ αὐτῆς καὶ ὑπὸ τοὺς κλάδους αὐτῆς αὐλισθήσεται· | |
|
27
|
|
| σκεπασθήσεται ὑπ᾿ αὐτῆς ἀπὸ καύματος καὶ ἐν τῇ δόξῃ αὐτῆς καταλύσει. |
