Chapter 36
|
|
1
|
1
|
| Ο ΣΥΝΤΗΡΩΝ νόμον πλεονάζει προσφοράς, θυσιάζων σωτηρίου ὁ προσέχων ἐντολαῖς. | There shall no evil happen unto him that feareth the Lord; but in temptation even again he will deliver him. |
|
2
|
2
|
| ἀνταποδιδοὺς χάριν προσφέρων σεμίδαλιν, καὶ ὁ ποιῶν ἐλεημοσύνην θυσιάζων αἰνέσεως. | A wise man hateth not the law; but he that is an hypocrite therein is as a ship in a storm. |
|
3
|
3
|
| εὐδοκία Κυρίου ἀποστῆναι ἀπὸ πονηρίας, καὶ ἐξιλασμὸς ἀποστῆναι ἀπὸ ἀδικίας. | A man of understanding trusteth in the law; and the law is faithful unto him, as an oracle. |
|
4
|
4
|
| μὴ ὀφθῇς ἐν προσώπῳ Κυρίου κενός, πάντα γὰρ ταῦτα χάριν ἐντολῆς. | Prepare what to say, and so thou shalt be heard: and bind up instruction, and then make answer. |
|
5
|
5
|
| προσφορὰ δικαίου λιπαίνει θυσιαστήριον, καὶ ἡ εὐωδία αὐτῆς ἔναντι ῾Υψίστου. | The heart of the foolish is like a cartwheel; and his thoughts are like a rolling axle-tree. |
|
6
|
6
|
| θυσία ἀνδρὸς δικαίου δεκτή, καὶ τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῆς οὐκ ἐπιλησθήσεται. | A stallion horse is as a mocking friend, he neigheth under every one that sitteth upon him. |
|
7
|
7
|
| ἐν ἀγαθῷ ὀφθαλμῷ δόξασον τὸν Κύριον, καὶ μὴ σμικρύνῃς ἀπαρχὴν χειρῶν σου. | Why doth one day excel another, when as all the light of every day in the year is of the sun? |
|
8
|
8
|
| ἐν πάσῃ δόσει ἱλάρωσον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ ἁγίασον δεκάτην. | By the knowledge of the Lord they were distinguished: and he altered seasons and feasts. |
|
9
|
9
|
| δὸς ῾Υψίστῳ κατὰ τὴν δόσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν ἀγαθῷ ὀφθαλμῷ καθ᾿ εὕρεμα χειρός· | Some of them hath he made high days, and hallowed them, and some of them hath he made ordinary days. |
|
10
|
10
|
| ὅτι Κύριος ἀνταποδιδούς ἐστι καὶ ἑπταπλάσια ἀνταποδώσει σοι. | And all men are from the ground, and Adam was created of earth. |
|
11
|
11
|
| Μὴ δωροκόπει, οὐ γὰρ προσδέξεται· | In much knowledge the Lord hath divided them, and made their ways diverse. |
|
12
|
12
|
| καὶ μὴ ἔπεχε θυσίᾳ ἀδίκῳ, ὅτι Κύριος κριτής ἐστι, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι παρ᾿ αὐτῷ δόξα προσώπου. | Some of them hath he blessed and exalted, and some of them hath he sanctified, and set near himself: but some of them hath he cursed and brought low, and turned out of their places. |
|
13
|
13
|
| οὐ λήψεται πρόσωπον ἐπὶ πτωχοῦ καὶ δέησιν ἠδικημένου εἰσακούσεται· | As the clay is in the potter's hand, to fashion it at his pleasure: so man is in the hand of him that made him, to render to them as liketh him best. |
|
14
|
14
|
| οὐ μὴ ὑπερίδῃ ἱκετείαν ὀρφανοῦ καὶ χήραν, ἐὰν ἐκχέῃ λαλιάν· | Good is set against evil, and life against death: so is the godly against the sinner, and the sinner against the godly. |
|
15
|
15
|
| οὐχὶ δάκρυα χήρας ἐπὶ σιαγόνα καταβαίνει καὶ ἡ καταβόησις ἐπὶ τῷ καταγαγόντι αὐτά; | So look upon all the works of the most High; and there are two and two, one against another. |
|
16
|
16
|
| θεραπεύων ἐν εὐδοκίᾳ δεχθήσεται, καὶ ἡ δέησις αὐτοῦ ἕως νεφελῶν συνάψει. | Though I was the last to wake up, yet I received their inheritance as from the beginning. |
|
17
|
17
|
| προσευχὴ ταπεινοῦ νεφέλας διῆλθε, καὶ ἕως συνεγγίσῃ, οὐ μὴ παρακληθῇ· | O Lord have mercy upon the people that is called by thy name, and upon Israel, whom thou hast named thy firstborn. |
|
18
|
18
|
| καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποστῇ, ἕως ἐπισκέψηται ὁ ῞Υψιστος. καὶ κρινεῖ δικαίως καὶ ποιήσει κρίσιν. | O be merciful unto Jerusalem, thy holy city, the place of thy rest. |
|
19
|
19
|
| καὶ ὁ Κύριος οὐ μὴ βραδύνῃ, οὐδὲ μὴ μακροθυμήσῃ ἐπ᾿ αὐτοῖς, | Fill Sion with thine unspeakable oracles, and thy people with thy glory. |
|
20
|
20
|
| ἕως ἂν συντρίψῃ ὀσφὺν ἀνελεημόνων, καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἀνταποδώσει ἐκδίκησιν, | Give testimony unto those that thou hast possessed from the beginning, and raise up prophets that have been in thy name. |
|
21
|
21
|
| ἕως ἐξάρῃ πλῆθος ὑβριστῶν καὶ σκῆπτρα ἀδίκων συντρίψῃ· | Reward them that wait for thee, and let thy prophets be found faithful. |
|
22
|
22
|
| ἕως ἀνταποδῷ ἀνθρώπῳ κατὰ τὰς πράξεις αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ἔργα τῶν ἀνθρώπων κατὰ τὰ ἐνθυμήματα αὐτῶν· | O Lord, hear the prayer of thy servants, according to the blessing of Aaron over thy people, that all they which dwell upon the earth may know that thou art the Lord, the eternal God. |
|
23
|
23
|
| ἕως κρίνῃ τὴν κρίσιν τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐφρανεῖ αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ ἐλέει αὐτοῦ. | The belly devoureth all meats, yet is one meat better than another. |
|
24
|
24
|
| ὡραῖον ἔλεος ἐν καιρῷ θλίψεως αὐτοῦ, ὡς νεφέλαι ὑετοῦ ἐν καιρῷ ἀβροχίας. | As the palate tasteth divers kinds of venison: so doth an heart of understanding false speeches. |
