Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Κρείσσων ἀνὴρ ἐλέγχων ἀνδρὸς σκληροτραχήλου, ἐξαπίνης γὰρ φλεγομένου αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν ἴασις.
1He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
2Ἐγκωμιαζομένων δικαίων εὐφρανθήσονται λαοὶ, ἀρχόντων δὲ ἀσεβῶν στένουσιν ἄνδρες.
2When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.
3Ἀνδρὸς φιλοῦντος σοφίαν εὐφραίνεται πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, ὃς δὲ ποιμαίνει πόρνας ἀπολεῖ πλοῦτον.
3Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.
4Βασιλεὺς δίκαιος ἀνίστησι χώραν, ἀνὴρ δὲ παράνομος κατασκάπτει.
4The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
5Ὃς παρασκευάζεται ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἑαυτοῦ φιλου δίκτυον, περιβάλλει αὐτὸ τοῖς ἑαυτοῦ ποσίν.
5A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.
6Ἁμαρτάνοντι ἀνδρὶ μεγάλη παγὶς, δίκαιος δὲ ἐν χαρᾷ καὶ ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ ἔσται.
6In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.
7Ἐπίσταται δίκαιος κρίνειν πενιχροῖς, ὁ δὲ ἀσεβὴς οὐ νοεῖ γνῶσιν, καὶ πτωχῷ οὐχ ὑπάρχει νοῦς ἐπιγνώμων.
7The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it .
8Ἄνδρες ἄνομοι ἐξέκαυσαν πόλιν, σοφοὶ δὲ ἀπέστρεψαν ὀργήν.
8Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.
9Ἀνὴρ σοφὸς κρινεῖ ἔθνη, ἀνὴρ δὲ φαῦλος ὀργιζόμενος καταγελᾶται καὶ οὐ καταπτήσσει.
9If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest.
10Ἄνδρες αἱμάτων μέτοχοι μισοῦσιν ὅσιον, οἱ δὲ εὐθεῖς ἐκζητήσουσι ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ.
10The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul.
11Ὅλον τὸν θυμὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκφέρει ἄφρων, σοφὸς δὲ ταμιεύεται κατὰ μέρος.
11A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
12Βασιλέως ὑπακούοντος λόγον ἄδικον, πάντες οἱ ὑπʼ αὐτὸν παράνομοι.
12If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked.
13Δανιστοῦ καὶ χρεωφειλέτου ἀλλήλοις συνελθόντων, ἐπισκοπὴν ἀμφοτέρων ποιεῖται ὁ Κύριος.
13The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD lighteneth both their eyes.
14Βασιλέως ἐν ἀληθείᾳ κρίνοντος πτωχοὺς, ὁ θρόνος αὐτοῦ εἰς μαρτύριον κατασταθήσεται.
14The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established for ever.
15Πληγαὶ καὶ ἔλεγχοι διδόασι σοφίαν, παῖς δὲ πλανώμενος αἰσχύνει γονεῖς αὐτοῦ.
15The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
16Πολλῶν ὄντων ἀσεβῶν πολλαὶγίνονται ἁμαρτίαι, οἱ δὲ δίκαιοι ἐκείνων πιπτόντων κατάφοβοι γίνονται.
16When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall.
17Παίδευε υἱόν σου, καὶ ἀναπαύσει σε, καὶ δώσει κόσμον τῇ ψυχῇ σου.
17Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
18Οὐ μὴ ὑπάρξῃ ἐξηγητὴς ἔθνει παρανόμῳ, ὁ δὲ φυλάσσων τὸν νόμον μακαριστός.
18Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
19Λόγοις οὐ παιδευθήσεται οἰκέτης σκληρός· ἐὰν γὰρ καὶ νοήσῃ, ἀλλʼ οὐχ ὑπακούσεται.
19A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.
20Ἐὰν ἴδῃς ἄνδρα ταχὺν ἐν λόγοις, γίνωσκε ὅτι ἐλπίδα ἔχει μᾶλλον ὁ ἄφρων αὐτοῦ.
20Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
21Ὃς κατασπαταλᾷ ἐκ παιδὸς, οἰκέτης ἔσται, ἔσχατον δὲ ὀδυνηθήσεται ἐφʼ ἑαυτῷ·
21He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.
22Ἀνὴρ θυμώδης ἐγείρει νεῖκος, ἀνὴρ δὲ ὀργίλος ἐξώρυξεν ἁμαρτίαν.
22An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
23Ὕβρις ἄνδρα ταπεινοῖ, τοὺς δὲ ταπεινόφρονας ἐρείδει δόξῃ Κύριος.
23A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.
24Ὃς μερίζεται κλέπτῃ, μισεῖ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχήν· ἐὰν δὲ ὅρκου προτεθέντος ἀκούσαντες μὴ ἀναγγείλωσι,
24Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
25φοβηθέντες καὶ αἰσχυνθέντες ἀνθρώπους ὑπεσκελίσθησαν, ὁ δὲ πεποιθὼς ἐπὶ Κυρίῳ εὐφρανθήσεται· ἀσέβεια ἀνδρὶ δίδωσι σφάλμα, ὃς δὲ πέποιθεν ἐπὶ τῷ δεσπότῃ σωθήσεται.
25The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
26Πολλοὶ θεραπεύουσι πρόσωπα ἡγουμένων, παρὰ δὲ Κυρίου γίνεται τὸ δίκαιον ἀνδρί.
26Many seek the ruler’s favour; but every man’s judgment cometh from the LORD .
27Βδέλυγμα δίκαιος ἀνὴρ ἀνδρὶ ἀδίκῳ, βδέλυγμα δὲ ἀνόμῳ κατευθύνουσα ὁδός.
27An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
