| 1 καὶ ἀντὶ φίλου μὴ γίνου ἐχθρός ὄνομα γὰρ πονηρὸν αἰσχύνην καὶ ὄνειδος κληρονομήσει οὕτως ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς ὁ δίγλωσσος | 1 Instead of a friend become not an enemy to your neighbour: for an evil man shall inherit reproach and shame, so shall every sinner that is envious and double tongued. | 1 Noli fieri pro amico inimicus proximo : improperium enim et contumeliam malus hæreditabit : et omnis peccator invidus et bilinguis. |
| 2 μὴ ἐπάρῃς σεαυτὸν ἐν βουλῇ ψυχῆς σου ἵνα μὴ διαρπαγῇ ὡς ταῦρος ἡ ψυχή σου 3 τὰ φύλλα σου καταφάγεσαι καὶ τοὺς καρπούς σου ἀπολέσεις καὶ ἀφήσεις σεαυτὸν ὡς ξύλον ξηρόν 4 ψυχὴ πονηρὰ ἀπολεῖ τὸν κτησάμενον αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπίχαρμα ἐχθρῶν ποιήσει αὐτόν | 2 Extol not yourself in the thoughts of your soul like a bull: lest your strength be quashed by folly, 3 and it eat up your leaves, and destroy your fruit, and you be left as a dry tree in the wilderness. 4 For a wicked soul shall destroy him that has it, and makes him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked. | 2 Non te extollas in cogitatione animæ tuæ velut taurus, ne forte elidatur virtus tua per stultitiam : 3 et folia tua comedat, et fructus tuos perdat, et relinquaris velut lignum aridum in eremo. 4 Anima enim nequam disperdet qui se habet, et in gaudium inimicis dat illum, et deducet in sortem impiorum. |
| 5 λάρυγξ γλυκὺς πληθυνεῖ φίλους αὐτοῦ καὶ γλῶσσα εὔλαλος πληθυνεῖ εὐπροσήγορα 6 οἱ εἰρηνεύοντές σοι ἔστωσαν πολλοί οἱ δὲ σύμβουλοί σου εἷς ἀπὸ χιλίων 7 εἰ κτᾶσαι φίλον ἐν πειρασμῷ κτῆσαι αὐτὸν καὶ μὴ ταχὺ ἐμπιστεύσῃς αὐτῷ 8 ἔστιν γὰρ φίλος ἐν καιρῷ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ παραμείνῃ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεώς σου 9 καὶ ἔστιν φίλος μετατιθέμενος εἰς ἔχθραν καὶ μάχην ὀνειδισμοῦ σου ἀποκαλύψει 10 καὶ ἔστιν φίλος κοινωνὸς τραπεζῶν καὶ οὐ μὴ παραμείνῃ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεώς σου 11 καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς σου ἔσται ὡς σὺ καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς οἰκέτας σου παρρησιάσεται 12 ἐὰν ταπεινωθῇς ἔσται κατὰ σοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου σου κρυβήσεται 13 ἀπὸ τῶν ἐχθρῶν σου διαχωρίσθητι καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν φίλων σου πρόσεχε 14 φίλος πιστὸς σκέπη κραταιά ὁ δὲ εὑρὼν αὐτὸν εὗρεν θησαυρόν 15 φίλου πιστοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀντάλλαγμα καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν σταθμὸς τῆς καλλονῆς αὐτοῦ 16 φίλος πιστὸς φάρμακον ζωῆς καὶ οἱ φοβούμενοι κύριον εὑρήσουσιν αὐτόν 17 ὁ φοβούμενος κύριον εὐθυνεῖ φιλίαν αὐτοῦ ὅτι κατ' αὐτὸν οὕτως καὶ ὁ πλησίον αὐτοῦ | 5 A sweet word multiplies friends, and appeases enemies, and a gracious tongue in a good man abounds. 6 Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be your counsellor. 7 If you would get a friend, try him before you take him, and do not credit him easily. 8 For there is a friend for his own occasion, and he will not abide in the day of your trouble. 9 And there is a friend that turns to enmity; and there is a friend that will disclose hatred and strife and reproaches. 10 And there is a friend a companion at the table, and he will not abide in the day of distress. 11 A friend if he continue steadfast, shall be to you as yourself, and shall act with confidence among them of your household. 12 If he humble himself before you, and hide himself from your face, you shall have unanimous friendship for good. 13 Separate yourself from your enemies, and take heed of your friends. 14 A faithful friend is a strong defence: and he that has found him, has found a treasure. 15 Nothing can be compared to a faithful friend, and no weight of gold and silver is able to countervail the goodness of his fidelity. 16 A faithful friend is the medicine of life and immortality: and they that fear the Lord, shall find him. 17 He that fears God, shall likewise have good friendship: because according to him shall his friend be. | 5 Verbum dulce multiplicat amicos et mitigat inimicos, et lingua eucharis in bono homine abundat. 6 Multi pacifici sint tibi : et consiliarius sit tibi unus de mille. 7 Si possides amicum, in tentatione posside eum, et ne facile credas ei. 8 Est enim amicus secundum tempus suum, et non permanebit in die tribulationis. 9 Et est amicus qui convertitur ad inimicitiam, et est amicus qui odium et rixam et convitia denudabit. 10 Est autem amicus socius mensæ, et non permanebit in die necessitatis. 11 Amicus si permanserit fixus, erit tibi quasi coæqualis, et in domesticis tuis fiducialiter aget. 12 Si humiliaverit se contra te, et a facie tua absconderit se, unanimem habebis amicitiam bonam. 13 Ab inimicis tuis separare, et ab amicis tuis attende. 14 Amicus fidelis protectio fortis : qui autem invenit illum, invenit thesaurum. 15 Amico fideli nulla est comparatio, et non est digna ponderatio auri et argenti contra bonitatem fidei illius. 16 Amicus fidelis medicamentum vitæ et immortalitatis : et qui metuunt Dominum, invenient illum. 17 Qui timet Deum æque habebit amicitiam bonam, quoniam secundum illum erit amicus illius. |
| 18 τέκνον ἐκ νεότητός σου ἐπίλεξαι παιδείαν καὶ ἕως πολιῶν εὑρήσεις σοφίαν 19 ὡς ὁ ἀροτριῶν καὶ ὁ σπείρων πρόσελθε αὐτῇ καὶ ἀνάμενε τοὺς ἀγαθοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῆς ἐν γὰρ τῇ ἐργασίᾳ αὐτῆς ὀλίγον κοπιάσεις καὶ ταχὺ φάγεσαι τῶν γενημάτων αὐτῆς 20 ὡς τραχεῖά ἐστιν σφόδρα τοῖς ἀπαιδεύτοις καὶ οὐκ ἐμμενεῖ ἐν αὐτῇ ἀκάρδιος 21 ὡς λίθος δοκιμασίας ἰσχυρὸς ἔσται ἐπ' αὐτῷ καὶ οὐ χρονιεῖ ἀπορρῖψαι αὐτήν 22 σοφία γὰρ κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς ἐστιν καὶ οὐ πολλοῖς ἐστιν φανερά 23 ἄκουσον τέκνον καὶ ἔκδεξαι γνώμην μου καὶ μὴ ἀπαναίνου τὴν συμβουλίαν μου 24 καὶ εἰσένεγκον τοὺς πόδας σου εἰς τὰς πέδας αὐτῆς καὶ εἰς τὸν κλοιὸν αὐτῆς τὸν τράχηλόν σου 25 ὑπόθες τὸν ὦμόν σου καὶ βάσταξον αὐτὴν καὶ μὴ προσοχθίσῃς τοῖς δεσμοῖς αὐτῆς 26 ἐν πάσῃ ψυχῇ σου πρόσελθε αὐτῇ καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ δυνάμει σου συντήρησον τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῆς 27 ἐξίχνευσον καὶ ζήτησον καὶ γνωσθήσεταί σοι καὶ ἐγκρατὴς γενόμενος μὴ ἀφῇς αὐτήν 28 ἐπ' ἐσχάτων γὰρ εὑρήσεις τὴν ἀνάπαυσιν αὐτῆς καὶ στραφήσεταί σοι εἰς εὐφροσύνην 29 καὶ ἔσονταί σοι αἱ πέδαι εἰς σκέπην ἰσχύος καὶ οἱ κλοιοὶ αὐτῆς εἰς στολὴν δόξης 30 κόσμος γὰρ χρύσεός ἐστιν ἐπ' αὐτῆς καὶ οἱ δεσμοὶ αὐτῆς κλῶσμα ὑακίνθινον 31 στολὴν δόξης ἐνδύσῃ αὐτὴν καὶ στέφανον ἀγαλλιάματος περιθήσεις σεαυτῷ 32 ἐὰν θέλῃς τέκνον παιδευθήσῃ καὶ ἐὰν ἐπιδῷς τὴν ψυχήν σου πανοῦργος ἔσῃ 33 ἐὰν ἀγαπήσῃς ἀκούειν ἐκδέξῃ καὶ ἐὰν κλίνῃς τὸ οὖς σου σοφὸς ἔσῃ 34 ἐν πλήθει πρεσβυτέρων στῆθι καὶ τίς σοφός αὐτῷ προσκολλήθητι 35 πᾶσαν διήγησιν θείαν θέλε ἀκροᾶσθαι καὶ παροιμίαι συνέσεως μὴ ἐκφευγέτωσάν σε 36 ἐὰν ἴδῃς συνετόν ὄρθριζε πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ βαθμοὺς θυρῶν αὐτοῦ ἐκτριβέτω ὁ πούς σου 37 διανοοῦ ἐν τοῖς προστάγμασιν κυρίου καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς αὐτοῦ μελέτα διὰ παντός αὐτὸς στηριεῖ τὴν καρδίαν σου καὶ ἡ ἐπιθυμία τῆς σοφίας δοθήσεταί σοι | 18 My son, from your youth up receive instruction, and even to your grey hairs you shall find wisdom. 19 Come to her as one that ploughs, and sows, and wait for her good fruits: 20 For in working about her you shall labour a little, and shall quickly eat of her fruits. 21 How very unpleasant is wisdom to the unlearned, and the unwise will not continue with her. 22 She shall be to them as a mighty stone of trial, and they will cast her from them before it be long. 23 For the wisdom of doctrine is according to her name, and she is not manifest unto many, but with them to whom she is known, she continues even to the sight of God. 24 Give ear, my son, and take wise counsel, and cast not away my advice. 25 Put your feet into her fetters, and your neck into her chains: 26 Bow down your shoulder, and bear her, and be not grieved with her bands. 27 Come to her with all your mind, and keep her ways with all your power. 28 Search for her, and she shall be made known to you, and when you have gotten her, let her not go: 29 For in the latter end you shall find rest in her, and she shall be turned to your joy. 30 Then shall her fetters be a strong defence for you, and a firm foundation, and her chain a robe of glory: 31 For in her is the beauty of life, and her bands are a healthful binding. 32 You shall put her on as a robe of glory, and you shall set her upon you as a crown of joy. 33 My son, if you will attend to me, you shall learn: and if you will apply your mind, you shall be wise. 34 If you will incline your ear, you shall receive instruction: and if you love to hear, you shall be wise. 35 Stand in the multitude of ancients that are wise, and join yourself from your heart to their wisdom, that you may hear every discourse of God, and the sayings of praise may not escape you. 36 And if you see a man of understanding, go to him early in the morning, and let your foot wear the steps of his doors. 37 Let your thoughts be upon the precepts of God, and meditate continually on his commandments: and he will give you a heart, and the desire of wisdom shall be given to you. | 18 Fili, a juventute tua excipe doctrinam, et usque ad canos invenies sapientiam. 19 Quasi is qui arat et seminat accede ad eam, et sustine bonos fructus illius. 20 In opere enim ipsius exiguum laborabis, et cito edes de generationibus illius. 21 Quam aspera est nimium sapientia indoctis hominibus! et non permanebit in illa excors. 22 Quasi lapidis virtus probatio erit in illis : et non demorabuntur projicere illam. 23 Sapientia enim doctrinæ secundum nomen est ejus, et non est multis manifestata : quibus autem cognita est, permanet usque ad conspectum Dei. 24 Audi, fili, et accipe consilium intellectus, et ne abjicias consilium meum. 25 Injice pedem tuum in compedes illius, et in torques illius collum tuum. 26 Subjice humerum tuum, et porta illam, et ne acedieris vinculis ejus. 27 In omni animo tuo accede ad illam, et in omni virtute tua conserva vias ejus. 28 Investiga illam, et manifestabitur tibi : et continens factus, ne derelinquas eam : 29 in novissimis enim invenies requiem in ea, et convertetur tibi in oblectationem. 30 Et erunt tibi compedes ejus in protectionem fortitudinis et bases virtutis, et torques illius in stolam gloriæ : 31 decor enim vitæ est in illa, et vincula illius alligatura salutaris. 32 Stolam gloriæ indues eam, et coronam gratulationis superpones tibi. 33 Fili, si attenderis mihi, disces : et si accommodaveris animum tuum, sapiens eris. 34 Si inclinaveris aurem tuam, excipies doctrinam : et si dilexeris audire, sapiens eris. 35 In multitudine presbyterorum prudentium sta, et sapientiæ illorum ex corde conjungere, ut omnem narrationem Dei possis audire, et proverbia laudis non effugiant a te. 36 Et si videris sensatum, evigila ad eum, et gradus ostiorum illius exterat pes tuus. 37 Cogitatum tuum habe in præceptis Dei, et in mandatis illius maxime assiduus esto : et ipse dabit tibi cor, et concupiscentia sapientiæ dabitur tibi. |
