|
|

|
1
|
| Ο ΠΟΙΩΝ ἔλεος δανειεῖ τῷ πλησίον, καὶ ὁ ἐπισχύων τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ τηρεῖ ἐντολάς. | He that loveth his son causeth him oft to feel the rod, that he may have joy of him in the end. |
|
2
|
2
|
| δάνεισον τῷ πλησίον ἐν καιρῷ χρείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάλιν ἀπόδος τῷ πλησίον εἰς τὸν καιρόν· | He that chastiseth his son shall have joy in him, and shall rejoice of him among his acquaintance. |
|
3
|
3
|
| στερέωσον λόγον καὶ πιστώθητι μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ εὑρήσεις τὴν χρείαν σου. | He that teacheth his son grieveth the enemy: and before his friends he shall rejoice of him. |
|
4
|
4
|
| πολλοὶ ὡς εὕρεμα ἐνόμισαν δάνος καὶ παρέσχον πόνον τοῖς βοηθήσασιν αὐτοῖς. | Though his father die, yet he is as though he were not dead: for he hath left one behind him that is like himself. |
|
5
|
5
|
| ἕως οὗ λάβῃ, καταφιλήσει χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν χρημάτων τοῦ πλησίον ταπεινώσει φωνήν· καὶ ἐν καιρῷ ἀποδόσεως παρελκύσει χρόνον καὶ ἀποδώσει λόγους ἀκηδίας καὶ τὸν καιρὸν αἰτιάσεται. | While he lived, he saw and rejoiced in him: and when he died, he was not sorrowful. |
|
6
|
6
|
| ἐὰν ἰσχύσῃ, μόλις κομίσεται τὸ ἥμισυ καὶ λογιεῖται αὐτὸ ὡς εὕρεμα· εἰ δὲ μή, ἀπεστέρησεν αὐτὸν τῶν χρημάτων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκτήσατο αὐτὸν ἐχθρὸν δωρεάν· κατάρας καὶ λοιδορίας ἀποδώσει αὐτῷ καὶ ἀντὶ δόξης ἀποδώσει αὐτῷ ἀτιμίαν. | He left behind him an avenger against his enemies, and one that shall requite kindness to his friends. |
|
7
|
7
|
| πολλοὶ οὖν χάριν πονηρίας ἀπέστρεψαν, ἀποστερηθῆναι δωρεὰν εὐλαβήθησαν. | He that maketh too much of his son shall bind up his wounds; and his bowels will be troubled at every cry. |
|
8
|
8
|
| πλὴν ἐπὶ ταπεινῷ μακροθύμησον καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἐλεημοσύνην μὴ παρελκύσῃς αὐτόν. | An horse not broken becometh headstrong: and a child left to himself will be wilful. |
|
9
|
9
|
| χάριν ἐντολῆς ἀντιλαβοῦ πένητος καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἔνδειαν αὐτοῦ μὴ ἀποστρέψῃς αὐτὸν κενόν. | Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness. |
|
10
|
10
|
| ἀπόλεσον ἀργύριον δι᾿ ἀδελφὸν καὶ φίλον, καὶ μὴ ἰωθήτω ὑπὸ τὸν λίθον εἰς ἀπώλειαν. | Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end. |
|
11
|
11
|
| θὲς τὸν θησαυρόν σου κατ᾿ ἐντολὰς ῾Υψίστου, καὶ λυσιτελήσει σοι μᾶλλον ἢ τὸ χρυσίον. | Give him not liberty in youth. |
|
12
|
12
|
| σύγκλεισον ἐλεημοσύνην ἐν τοῖς ταμείοις σου, καὶ αὕτη ἐξελεῖταί σε ἐκ πάσης κακώσεως· | Beat his sides while he is still young, lest becoming stubborn, he disobey thee. |
|
13
|
13
|
| ὑπὲρ ἀσπίδα κράτους καὶ ὑπὲρ δόρυ ἀλκῆς κατέναντι ἐχθροῦ πολεμήσει ὑπὲρ σοῦ. | Train up thy son, and exercise him with work, lest by thy looseness thou stumble. |
|
14
|
14
|
| ἀνὴρ ἀγαθὸς ἐγγυήσεται τὸν πλησίον, καὶ ὁ ἀπολωλεκὼς αἰσχύνην καταλήψει αὐτόν. | Better is the poor, being sound and strong of constitution, than a rich man that is afflicted in his body. |
|
15
|
15
|
| Χάριτας ἐγγύου μὴ ἐπιλάθῃ, ἔδωκε γὰρ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ὑπὲρ σοῦ. | Health and good estate of body are above all gold, and a strong body above infinite wealth. |
|
16
|
16
|
| ἀγαθὰ ἐγγύου ἀνατρέψει ἁμαρτωλός, καὶ ἀχάριστος ἐν διανοίᾳ ἐγκαταλείψει ρυσάμενον. | There is no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart. |
|
17
|
17
|
| ἐγγύη πολλοὺς ἀπώλεσε κατευθύνοντας καὶ ἐσάλευσεν αὐτοὺς ὡς κῦμα θαλάσσης· ἄνδρας δυνατοὺς ἀπῴκισε καὶ ἐπλανήθησαν ἐν ἔθνεσιν ἀλλοτρίοις. | Death is better than a bitter life or continual sickness. |
|
19
|
19
|
| ἁμαρτωλὸς ἐμπεσὼν εἰς ἐγγύην καὶ διώκων ἐργολαβίας ἐμπεσεῖται εἰς κρίσεις. | What good doeth the offering unto an idol? for neither can it eat nor smell: so is he that is persecuted of the Lord. |
|
20
|
20
|
| ἀντιλαβοῦ τοῦ πλησίον κατὰ δύναμίν σου καὶ πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἐμπέσῃς.— | He seeth with his eyes and groaneth, as an eunuch that embraceth a virgin and sigheth. |
|
21
|
21
|
| ᾿Αρχὴ ζωῆς ὕδωρ καὶ ἄρτος καὶ ἱμάτιον καὶ οἶκος καλύπτων ἀσχημοσύνην. | Give not over thy mind to heaviness, and afflict not thyself in thine own counsel. |
|
22
|
22
|
| κρείσσων βίος πτωχοῦ ὑπὸ σκέπην δοκῶν ἢ ἐδέσματα λαμπρὰ ἐν ἀλλοτρίοις. | The gladness of the heart is the life of man, and the joyfulness of a man prolongeth his days. |
|
23
|
23
|
| ἐπὶ μικρῷ καὶ μεγάλῳ εὐδοκίαν ἔχε, καὶ ὀνειδισμὸν παροικίας οὐ μὴ ἀκούσῃς. | Love thine own soul, and comfort thy heart, remove sorrow far from thee: for sorrow hath killed many, and there is no profit therein. |
|
24
|
24
|
| ζωὴ πονηρὰ ἐξ οἰκίας εἰς οἰκίαν, καὶ οὗ παροικήσεις, οὐκ ἀνοίξει στόμα. | Envy and wrath shorten the life, and carefulness bringeth age before the time. |
|
25
|
25
|
| ξενιεῖς καὶ ποτιεῖς εἰς ἀχάριστα καὶ πρὸς ἐπὶ τούτοις πικρὰ ἀκούσῃ· | I awaked up last of all, as one that gathereth after the grape-gatherers: by the blessing of the Lord I profited, |
|
26
|
26
|
| πάρελθε, πάροικε, κόσμησον τράπεζαν, καὶ εἴτι ἐν τῇ χειρί σου, ψώμισόν με. | and filled my winepress like a gatherer of grapes. Consider that I laboured not for myself only, but for all them that seek learning. |
|
27
|
27
|
| ἔξελθε, πάροικε, ἀπὸ προσώπου δόξης, ἐπεξένωταί μοι ὁ ἀδελφός, χρεία τῆς οἰκίας. | Hear me, O ye great men of the people, and hearken with your ears, ye rulers of the congregation. |
|
28
|
28
|
| βαρέα ταῦτα ἀνθρώπῳ ἔχοντι φρόνησιν, ἐπιτίμησις οἰκίας καὶ ὀνειδισμὸς δανειστοῦ. | Give not thy son and wife, thy brother and friend, power over thee while thou livest, and give not thy goods to another, lest it repent thee, and thou intreat for the same again. |
