Proverbs, 10
1. A wise son maketh the father glad: but a foolish son is the sorrow of his mother.
1. υἱὸς σοφὸς εὐφραίνει πατέρα υἱὸς δὲ ἄφρων λύπη τῇ μητρί
2. Treasures of wickedness shall profit nothing: but justice shall deliver from death.
2. οὐκ ὠφελήσουσιν θησαυροὶ ἀνόμους δικαιοσύνη δὲ ῥύσεται ἐκ θανάτου
3. The Lord will not afflict the soul of the just with famine, and he will disappoint the deceitful practices of the wicked.
3. οὐ λιμοκτονήσει κύριος ψυχὴν δικαίαν ζωὴν δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀνατρέψει
4. The slothful hand hath wrought poverty: but the hand of the industrious getteth riches. He that trusteth to lies feedeth the winds: and the same runneth after birds that fly away.
4. πενία ἄνδρα ταπεινοῖ χεῖρες δὲ ἀνδρείων πλουτίζουσιν (4a) υἱὸς πεπαιδευμένος σοφὸς ἔσται τῷ δὲ ἄφρονι διακόνῳ χρήσεται
5. He that gathered in the harvest is a wise son: but he that snorteth in the summer, is the son of confusion.
5. διεσώθη ἀπὸ καύματος υἱὸς νοήμων ἀνεμόφθορος δὲ γίνεται ἐν ἀμήτῳ υἱὸς παράνομος
6. The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the just: but iniquity covereth the mouth of the wicked.
6. εὐλογία κυρίου ἐπὶ κεφαλὴν δικαίου στόμα δὲ ἀσεβῶν καλύψει πένθος ἄωρον
7. The memory of the just is with praises: and the name of the wicked shall rot.
7. μνήμη δικαίων μετ’ ἐγκωμίων ὄνομα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς σβέννυται
8. The wise of heart receiveth precepts: a fool is beaten with lips.
8. σοφὸς καρδίᾳ δέξεται ἐντολάς ὁ δὲ ἄστεγος χείλεσιν σκολιάζων ὑποσκελισθήσεται
9. He that walketh sincerely, walketh confidently: but he that perverteth his ways, shall be manifest.
9. ὃς πορεύεται ἁπλῶς πορεύεται πεποιθώς ὁ δὲ διαστρέφων τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ γνωσθήσεται
10. He that winketh with the eye shall cause sorrow: and the foolish in lips shall be beaten.
10. ὁ ἐννεύων ὀφθαλμοῖς μετὰ δόλου συνάγει ἀνδράσι λύπας ὁ δὲ ἐλέγχων μετὰ παρρησίας εἰρηνοποιεῖ
11. The mouth of the just is a vein of life: and the mouth of the wicked covereth iniquity.
11. πηγὴ ζωῆς ἐν χειρὶ δικαίου στόμα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς καλύψει ἀπώλεια
12. Hatred stirreth up strifes: and charity covereth all sins.
12. μῖσος ἐγείρει νεῖκος πάντας δὲ τοὺς μὴ φιλονεικοῦντας καλύπτει φιλία
13. In the lips of the wise is wisdom found: and a rod on the back of him that wanteth sense.
13. ὃς ἐκ χειλέων προφέρει σοφίαν ῥάβδῳ τύπτει ἄνδρα ἀκάρδιον
14. Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the fool is next to confusion.
14. σοφοὶ κρύψουσιν αἴσθησιν στόμα δὲ προπετοῦς ἐγγίζει συντριβῇ
15. The substance of a rich man is the city of his strength: the fear of the poor is their poverty.
15. κτῆσις πλουσίων πόλις ὀχυρά συντριβὴ δὲ ἀσεβῶν πενία
16. The work of the just is unto life: but the fruit of the wicked, unto sin.
16. ἔργα δικαίων ζωὴν ποιεῖ καρποὶ δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἁμαρτίας
17. The way of life, to him that observeth correction: but he that forsaketh reproofs goeth astray.
17. ὁδοὺς δικαίας ζωῆς φυλάσσει παιδεία παιδεία δὲ ἀνεξέλεγκτος πλανᾶται
18. Lying lips hide hatred: he that uttereth reproach is foolish.
18. καλύπτουσιν ἔχθραν χείλη δίκαια οἱ δὲ ἐκφέροντες λοιδορίας ἀφρονέστατοί εἰσιν
19. In the multitude of words there shall not want sin: but he that refraineth his lips is most wise.
19. ἐκ πολυλογίας οὐκ ἐκφεύξῃ ἁμαρτίαν φειδόμενος δὲ χειλέων νοήμων ἔσῃ
20. The tongue of the just is as choice silver: but the heart of the wicked is nothing worth.
20. ἄργυρος πεπυρωμένος γλῶσσα δικαίου καρδία δὲ ἀσεβοῦς ἐκλείψει
21. The lips of the just teach many: but they that are ignorant, shall die in the want of understanding.
21. χείλη δικαίων ἐπίσταται ὑψηλά οἱ δὲ ἄφρονες ἐν ἐνδείᾳ τελευτῶσιν
22. The blessing of the Lord maketh men rich: neither shall affliction be joined to them.
22. εὐλογία κυρίου ἐπὶ κεφαλὴν δικαίου αὕτη πλουτίζει καὶ οὐ μὴ προστεθῇ αὐτῇ λύπη ἐν καρδίᾳ
23. A fool worketh mischief as it were for sport: but wisdom is prudence to a man.
23. ἐν γέλωτι ἄφρων πράσσει κακά ἡ δὲ σοφία ἀνδρὶ τίκτει φρόνησιν
24. That which the wicked feareth, shall come upon him: to the just their desire shall be given.
24. ἐν ἀπωλείᾳ ἀσεβὴς περιφέρεται ἐπιθυμία δὲ δικαίου δεκτή
25. As a tempest that passeth, so the wicked shall be no more: but the just is as an everlasting foundation.
25. παραπορευομένης καταιγίδος ἀφανίζεται ἀσεβής δίκαιος δὲ ἐκκλίνας σῴζεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
26. As vinegar to the teeth, and smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that sent him.
26. ὥσπερ ὄμφαξ ὀδοῦσι βλαβερὸν καὶ καπνὸς ὄμμασιν οὕτως παρανομία τοῖς χρωμένοις αὐτήν
27. The fear of the Lord shall prolong days: and the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
27. φόβος κυρίου προστίθησιν ἡμέρας ἔτη δὲ ἀσεβῶν ὀλιγωθήσεται
28. The expectation of the just is joy; but the hope of the wicked shall perish.
28. ἐγχρονίζει δικαίοις εὐφροσύνη ἐλπὶς δὲ ἀσεβῶν ὄλλυται
29. The strength of the upright is the way of the Lord: and fear to them that work evil.
29. ὀχύρωμα ὁσίου φόβος κυρίου συντριβὴ δὲ τοῖς ἐργαζομένοις κακά
30. The just shall never be moved: but the wicked shall not dwell on the earth.
30. δίκαιος τὸν αἰῶνα οὐκ ἐνδώσει ἀσεβεῖς δὲ οὐκ οἰκήσουσιν γῆν
31. The mouth of the just shall bring forth wisdom: the tongue of the perverse shall perish.
31. στόμα δικαίου ἀποστάζει σοφίαν γλῶσσα δὲ ἀδίκου ἐξολεῖται
32. The lips of the just consider what is acceptable: and the mouth of the wicked uttereth perverse things.
32. χείλη ἀνδρῶν δικαίων ἀποστάζει χάριτας στόμα δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀποστρέφεται
