Chapter 27
|
|
1
|
1
|
| ΓΥΝΑΙΚΟΣ ἀγαθῆς μακάριος ὁ ἀνήρ, καὶ ἀριθμὸς τῶν ἡμερῶν αὐτοῦ διπλάσιος. | Many have sinned for a small matter; and he that seeketh for abundance will turn his eyes away. |
|
2
|
2
|
| γυνὴ ἀνδρεία εὐφραίνει τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰ ἔτη αὐτοῦ πληρώσει ἐν εἰρήνῃ. | As a nail sticketh fast between the joinings of the stones; so doth sin stick close between buying and selling. |
|
3
|
3
|
| γυνὴ ἀγαθὴ μερὶς ἀγαθή, ἐν μερίδι φοβουμένων Κύριον δοθήσεται. | Unless a man hold himself diligently in the fear of the Lord, his house shall soon be overthrown. |
|
4
|
4
|
| πλουσίου δὲ καὶ πτωχοῦ καρδία ἀγαθή, ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ πρόσωπον ἱλαρόν. | As when one sifteth with a sieve, the refuse remaineth; so the filth of man in his talk. |
|
5
|
5
|
| ἀπὸ τριῶν εὐλαβήθη ἡ καρδία μου, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ τετάρτῳ προσώπῳ ἐδεήθην· διαβολὴν πόλεως, καὶ ἐκκλησίαν ὄχλου, καὶ καταψευσμόν, ὑπὲρ θάνατον πάντα μοχθηρά. | The furnace proveth the potter's vessels; so the trial of man is in his reasoning. |
|
6
|
6
|
| ἄλγος καρδίας καὶ πένθος γυνὴ ἀντίζηλος ἐπὶ γυναικὶ καὶ μάστιξ γλώσσης πᾶσιν ἐπικοινωνοῦσα. | The fruit declareth if the tree have been dressed; so is the utterance of a conceit in the heart of man. |
|
7
|
7
|
| βοοζύγιον σαλευόμενον γυνὴ πονηρά, ὁ κρατῶν αὐτῆς ὡς ὁ δρασσόμενος σκορπίου. | Praise no man before thou hearest him speak; for this is the trial of men. |
|
8
|
8
|
| ὀργὴ μεγάλη γυνὴ μέθυσος καὶ ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς οὐ συγκαλύψει. | If thou followest righteousness, thou shalt obtain her, and put her on, as a glorious long robe. |
|
9
|
9
|
| πορνεία γυναικὸς ἐν μετεωρισμοῖς ὀφθαλμῶν καὶ ἐν τοῖς βλεφάροις αὐτῆς γνωσθήσεται. | The birds will resort unto their like; so will truth return unto them that practise in her. |
|
10
|
10
|
| ἐπὶ θυγατρὶ ἀδιατρέπτῳ στερέωσον φυλακήν, ἵνα μὴ εὑροῦσα ἄνεσιν ἑαυτῇ χρήσηται. | As the lion lieth in wait for the prey; so sin for them that work iniquity. |
|
11
|
11
|
| ὀπίσω ἀναιδοῦς ὀφθαλμοῦ φύλαξαι, καὶ μὴ θαυμάσῃς ἐὰν εἰς σὲ πλημμελήσῃ· | The discourse of a godly man is always with wisdom; but a fool changeth as the moon. |
|
12
|
12
|
| ὡς διψῶν ὁδοιπόρος τὸ στόμα ἀνοίξει, καὶ ἀπὸ παντὸς ὕδατος τοῦ σύνεγγυς πίεται, κατέναντι παντὸς πασσάλου καθήσεται καὶ ἔναντι βέλους ἀνοίξει φαρέτραν. | If thou be among the indiscreet, observe the time; but be continually among men of understanding. |
|
13
|
13
|
| χάρις γυναικὸς τέρψει τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτοῦ πιανεῖ ἡ ἐπιστήμη αὐτῆς. | The discourse of fools is irksome, and their sport is the wantonness of sin. |
|
14
|
14
|
| δόσις Κυρίου γυνὴ σιγηρά, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀντάλλαγμα πεπαιδευμένης ψυχῆς. | The talk of him that sweareth much maketh the hair stand upright; and their brawls make one stop his ears. |
|
15
|
15
|
| χάρις ἐπὶ χάριτι γυνὴ αἰσχυντηρά, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι σταθμὸς πᾶς ἄξιος ἐγκρατοῦς ψυχῆς. | The strife of the proud is bloodshedding, and their revilings are grievous to the ear. |
|
16
|
16
|
| ἥλιος ἀνατέλλων ἐν ὑψίστοις Κυρίου καὶ κάλλος ἀγαθῆς γυναικὸς ἐν κόσμῳ οἰκίας αὐτῆς. | Whoso discovereth secrets loseth his credit; and shall never find friend to his mind. |
|
17
|
17
|
| λύχνος ἐκλάμπων ἐπὶ λυχνίας ἁγίας καὶ κάλλος προσώπου ἐπὶ ἡλικίᾳ στασίμῃ. | Love thy friend, and be faithful unto him: but if thou betrayest his secrets, follow no more after him. |
|
18
|
18
|
| στύλοι χρύσεοι ἐπὶ βάσεως ἀργυρᾶς καὶ πόδες ὡραῖοι ἐπὶ στέρνοις εὐσταθοῦς. [ | For as a man hath destroyed his enemy; so hast thou lost the love of thy neighbour. |
|
19
|
19
|
| Τέκνον, ἀκμὴν ἡλικίας σου συντήρησον ὑγιῆ, καὶ μὴ δῷς ἀλλοτρίοις τὴν ἰσχύν σου. | As one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour go, and shalt not get him again. |
|
20
|
20
|
| ἀναζητήσας παντὸς πεδίου εὔγειον κλῆρον σπεῖρε τὰ ἴδια σπέρματα πεποιθὼς τῇ εὐγενείᾳ σου· | Follow after him no more, for he is too far off; he is as a roe escaped out of the snare. |
|
21
|
21
|
| οὕτως τὰ γενήματά σου περιόντα καὶ παρρησίαν εὐγενείας ἔχοντα μεγαλυνοῦσι. | As for a wound, it may be bound up; and after reviling there may be reconcilement: but he that betrayeth secrets is without hope. |
|
22
|
22
|
| γυνὴ μισθία ἴση σιάλῳ λογισθήσεται, ὕπανδρος δὲ πύργος θανάτου τοῖς χρωμένοις λογισθήσεται. | He that winketh with the eyes worketh evil: and he that knoweth him will depart from him. |
|
23
|
23
|
| γυνὴ ἀσεβὴς ἀνόμῳ μερὶς δοθήσεται, εὐσεβὴς δὲ δίδοται τῷ φοβουμένῳ τὸν Κύριον. | When thou art present, he will speak sweetly, and will admire thy words: but at the last he will writhe his mouth, and slander thy sayings. |
|
24
|
24
|
| γυνὴ ἀσχήμων ἀτιμίαν κατατρίψει, θυγάτηρ δὲ εὐσχήμων καὶ τὸν ἄνδρα ἐντραπήσεται. | I have hated many things, but nothing like him; for the Lord will hate him. |
|
25
|
25
|
| γυνὴ ἀδιάτρεπτος ὡς κύων λογισθήσεται, ἡ δὲ ἔχουσα αἰσχύνην τὸν Κύριον φοβηθήσεται. | Whoso casteth a stone on high casteth it on his own head; and a deceitful stroke shall make wounds. |
|
26
|
26
|
| γυνὴ ἄνδρα ἴδιον τιμῶσα σοφὴ πᾶσι φανήσεται, ἀτιμάζουσα δὲ ἐν ὑπερηφανίᾳ ἀσεβὴς πᾶσι γνωσθήσεται. γυναικὸς ἀγαθῆς μακάριος ὁ ἀνήρ, ὁ γὰρ ἀριθμὸς τῶν ἐτῶν αὐτοῦ διπλάσιος ἔσται. | Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that setteth a trap shall be taken therein. |
|
27
|
27
|
| γυνὴ μεγαλόφωνος καὶ γλωσσώδης ὡς σάλπιγξ πολέμων εἰς τροπὴν θεωρηθήσεται, ἀνθρώπου δὲ παντὸς ψυχὴ ὁμοιότροπος τούτοις, πολέμου ἀκαταστασίαις τὴν ψυχὴν διαιτηθήσεται].— | He that worketh mischief, it shall fall upon him, and he shall not know whence it cometh. |
|
28
|
28
|
| ᾿Επὶ δυσὶ λελύπηται ἡ καρδία μου, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ τρίτῳ θυμός μοι ἐπῆλθεν· ἀνὴρ πολεμιστὴς ὑστερῶν δι᾿ ἔνδειαν, καὶ ἄνδρες συνετοὶ ἐὰν σκυβαλισθῶσιν, ἐπανάγων ἀπὸ δικαιοσύνης ἐπὶ ἁμαρτίαν· ὁ Κύριος ἑτοιμάσει εἰς ρομφαίαν αὐτόν. | Mockery and reproach are from the proud; but vengeance, as a lion, shall lie in wait for him. |
|
29
|
29
|
| Μόλις ἐξελεῖται ἔμπορος ἀπὸ πλημμελείας, καὶ οὐ δικαιωθήσεται κάπηλος ἀπὸ ἁμαρτίας. | They that rejoice at the fall of the righteous shall be taken in the snare; and anguish shall consume them before they die. |
