1The proverbs of Solomon: A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son grief to his mother.
1ΥΙΟΣ σοφὸς εὐφραίνει πατέρα, υἱὸς δὲ ἄφρων λύπη τῇ μητρί.
2Ill-gotten treasures profit nothing, but righteousness brings deliverance from death.
2οὐκ ὠφελήσουσι θησαυροὶ ἀνόμους, δικαιοσύνη δὲ ρύσεται ἐκ θανάτου.
3The LORD does not let the righteous go hungry, but He denies the craving of the wicked.
3οὐ λιμοκτονήσει Κύριος ψυχὴν δικαίαν, ζωὴν δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀνατρέψει.
4Idle hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.
4πενία ἄνδρα ταπεινοῖ, χεῖρες δὲ ἀνδρείων πλουτίζουσιν. 4α υἱὸς πεπαιδευμένος σοφὸς ἔσται, τῷ δὲ ἄφρονι διακόνῳ χρήσεται.
5He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.
5διεσώθη ἀπὸ καύματος υἱὸς νοήμων, ἀνεμόφθορος δὲ γίνεται ἐν ἀμητῷ υἱὸς παράνομος.
6Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
6εὐλογία Κυρίου ἐπὶ κεφαλὴν δικαίου, στόμα δὲ ἀσεβῶν καλύψει πένθος ἄωρον.
7The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot.
7μνήμη δικαίων μετ᾿ ἐγκωμίων, ὄνομα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς σβέννυται.
8A wise heart will receive commandments, but foolish lips will come to ruin.
8σοφὸς καρδίᾳ δέξεται ἐντολάς, ὁ δὲ ἄστεγος χείλεσι σκολιάζων ὑποσκελισθήσεται.
9He who walks in integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
9ὃς πορεύεται ἁπλῶς, πορεύεται πεποιθώς, ὁ δὲ διαστρέφων τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ, γνωσθήσεται.
10He who winks the eye causes grief, and foolish lips will come to ruin.
10ὁ ἐννεύων ὀφθαλμοῖς μετὰ δόλου, συνάγει ἀνδράσι λύπας, ὁ δὲ ἐλέγχων μετὰ παρρησίας, εἰρηνοποιεῖ.
11The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
11πηγὴ ζωῆς ἐν χειρὶ δικαίου, στόμα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς καλύψει ἀπώλεια.
12Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions.
12μῖσος ἐγείρει νεῖκος, πάντας δὲ τοὺς μὴ φιλονεικοῦντας καλύπτει φιλία.
13Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning, but a rod is for the back of him who lacks judgment.
13ὃς ἐκ χειλέων προφέρει σοφίαν, ράβδῳ τύπτει ἄνδρα ἀκάρδιον.
14The wise store up knowledge, but the mouth of the fool invites destruction.
14σοφοὶ κρύψουσιν αἴσθησιν, στόμα δὲ προπετοῦς ἐγγίζει συντριβῇ.
15The wealth of the rich man is his fortified city, but poverty is the ruin of the poor.
15κτῆσις πλουσίων πόλις ὀχυρά, συντριβὴ δὲ ἀσεβῶν πενία.
16The labor of the righteous leads to life, but the gain of the wicked brings punishment.
16ἔργα δικαίων ζωὴν ποιεῖ, καρποὶ δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἁμαρτίας.
17Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who ignores reproof goes astray.
17ὁδοὺς δικαίας ζωῆς φυλάσσει παιδεία, παιδεία δὲ ἀνεξέλεγκτος πλανᾶται.
18The one who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a fool.
18καλύπτουσιν ἔχθραν χείλη δίκαια, οἱ δὲ ἐκφέροντες λοιδορίας ἀφρονέστατοί εἰσιν.
19When words are many, sin is unavoidable, but he who restrains his lips is wise.
19ἐκ πολυλογίας οὐκ ἐκφεύξῃ ἁμαρτίαν, φειδόμενος δὲ χειλέων νοήμων ἔσῃ.
20The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, but the heart of the wicked has little worth.
20ἄργυρος πεπυρωμένος γλῶσσα δικαίου, καρδία δὲ ἀσεβοῦς ἐκλείψει.
21The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of judgment.
21χείλη δικαίων ἐπίσταται ὑψηλά, οἱ δὲ ἄφρονες ἐν ἐνδείᾳ τελευτῶσιν.
22The blessing of the LORD enriches, and He adds no sorrow to it.
22εὐλογία Κυρίου ἐπὶ κεφαλὴν δικαίου· αὕτη πλουτίζει, καὶ οὐ μὴ προστεθῇ αὐτῇ λύπη ἐν καρδία.
23The fool delights in shameful conduct, but a man of understanding has wisdom.
23ἐν γέλωτι ἄφρων πράσσει κακά, ἡ δὲ σοφία ἀνδρὶ τίκτει φρόνησιν.
24What the wicked man dreads will overtake him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
24ἐν ἀπωλείᾳ ἀσεβὴς περιφέρεται, ἐπιθυμία δὲ δικαίου δεκτή.
25When the whirlwind passes, the wicked are no more, but the righteous are secure forever.
25παραπορευομένης καταιγίδος ἀφανίζεται ἀσεβής, δίκαιος δὲ ἐκκλίνας σώζεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.
26Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so is the slacker to those who send him.
26ὥσπερ ὄμφαξ ὀδοῦσι βλαβερὸν καὶ καπνὸς ὄμμασιν, οὕτως παρανομία τοῖς χρωμένοις αὐτῇ.
27The fear of the LORD prolongs life, but the years of the wicked will be cut short.
27φόβος Κυρίου προστίθησιν ἡμέρας, ἔτη δὲ ἀσεβῶν ὀλιγωθήσεται.
28The hope of the righteous is joy, but the expectations of the wicked will perish.
28ἐγχρονίζει δικαίοις εὐφροσύνη, ἐλπὶς δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀπολεῖται.
29The way of the LORD is a refuge to the upright, but destruction awaits those who do evil.
29ὀχύρωμα ὁσίου φόβος Κυρίου, συντριβὴ δὲ τοῖς ἐργαζομένοις κακά.
30The righteous will never be shaken, but the wicked will not inhabit the land.
30δίκαιος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα οὐκ ἐνδώσει, ἀσεβεῖς δὲ οὐκ οἰκήσουσι γῆν.
31The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut out.
31στόμα δικαίου ἀποστάζει σοφίαν, γλῶσσα δὲ ἀδίκου ἐξολεῖται.
32The lips of the righteous know what is fitting, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.
32χείλη ἀνδρῶν δικαίων ἀποστάζει χάριτας, στόμα δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀποστρέφεται.
