LXX Brenton's Greek Septuagint
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ὀργὴ ἀπόλλυσι καὶ φρονίμους, ἀπόκρισις δὲ ὑποπίπτουσα ἀποστρέφει θυμὸν, λόγος δὲ λυπηρὸς ἐγείρει ὀργάς.
1 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
2 Γλῶσσα σοφῶν καλὰ ἐπίσταται, στόμα δὲ ἀφρόνων ἀναγγέλλει κακά.
2 The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools gush out folly.
3 Ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ ὀφθαλμοὶ Κυρίου σκοπεύουσι κακούς τε καὶ ἀγαθούς.
3 Yahweh’s eyes are everywhere, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
4 Ἴασις γλώσσης δένδρον ζωῆς, ὁ δὲ συντηρῶν αὐτὴν πλησθήσεται πνεύματος.
4 A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but deceit in it crushes the spirit.
5 Ἄφρων μυκτηρίζει παιδείαν πατρὸς, ὁ δὲ φυλάσσων ἐντολὰς, πανουργότερος· ἐν πλεοναζούσῃ δικαιοσύνῃ ἰσχὺς πολλὴ, οἱ δὲ ἀσεβεῖς ὁλόῤῥιζοι ἐκ γῆς ἀπολοῦνται.
5 A fool despises his father’s correction, but he who heeds reproof shows prudence.
6 Οἴκοις δικαίων ἰσχὺς πολλή, καρποὶ δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀπολοῦνται.
6 In the house of the righteous is much treasure, but the income of the wicked brings trouble.
7 Χείλη σοφῶν δέδεται αἰσθήσει, καρδίαι δὲ ἀφρόνων οὐκ ἀσφαλεῖς.
7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so with the heart of fools.
8 Θυσίαι ἀσεβῶν βδέλυγμα Κυρίῳ, εὐχαὶ δὲ κατευθυνόντων δεκταὶ παρʼ αὐτῷ.
8 The sacrifice made by the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
9 Βδέλυγμα Κυρίῳ ὁδοὶ ἀσεβοῦς, διώκοντας δὲ δικαιοσύνην ἀγαπᾷ.
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to Yahweh, but he loves him who follows after righteousness.
10 Παιδεία ἀκάκου γνωρίζεται ὑπὸ τῶν παριόντων, οἱ δὲ μισοῦντες ἐλέγχους τελευτῶσιν αἰσχρῶς.
10 There is stern discipline for one who forsakes the way. Whoever hates reproof shall die.
11 Ἅδης καὶ ἀπώλεια φανερὰ παρὰ τῷ Κυρίῳ· πῶς οὐχὶ καὶ αἱ καρδίαι τῶν ἀνθρώπων;
11 Sheol and Abaddon are before Yahweh— how much more then the hearts of the children of men!
12 Οὐκ ἀγαπήσει ἀπαίδευτος τοὺς ἐλέγχοντας αὐτόν, μετὰ δὲ σοφῶν οὐχ ὁμιλήσει.
12 A scoffer doesn’t love to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.
13 Καρδίας εὐφραινομένης πρόσωπον θάλλει, ἐν δὲ λύπαις οὔσης σκυθρωπάζει.
13 A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but an aching heart breaks the spirit.
14 Καρδία ὀρθὴ ζητεῖ αἴσθησιν, στόμα δὲ ἀπαιδεύτων γνώσεται κακά.
14 The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
15 Πάντα τὸν χρόνον οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ τῶν κακῶν προσδέχονται κακὰ, οἱ δὲ ἀγαθοὶ ἡσυχάζουσι διαπαντός.
15 All the days of the afflicted are wretched, but one who has a cheerful heart enjoys a continual feast.
16 Κρεῖσσον μικρὰ μερὶς μετὰ φόβου Κυρίου, ἢ θησαυροὶ μεγάλοι μετὰ ἀφοβίας.
16 Better is little, with the fear of Yahweh, than great treasure with trouble.
17 Κρείσσων ξενισμὸς μετὰ λαχάνων πρὸς φιλίαν καὶ χάριν, ἢ παράθεσις μόσχων μετὰ ἔχθρας.
17 Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, than a fattened calf with hatred.
18 Ἀνὴρ θυμώδης παρασκευάζει μάχας· μακρόθυμος δὲ καὶ τὴν μέλλουσαν καταπρᾳΰνει·
18 A wrathful man stirs up contention, but one who is slow to anger appeases strife.
18a μακρόθυμος ἀνὴρ κατασβέσει κρίσεις, ὁ δὲ ἀσεβὴς ἐγείρει μᾶλλον.
·
19 Ὁδοὶ ἀεργῶν ἐστρωμέναι ἀκάνθαις, αἱ δὲ τῶν ἀνδρείων τετριμμέναι.
19 The way of the sluggard is like a thorn patch, but the path of the upright is a highway.
20 Υἱὸς σοφὸς εὐφραίνει πατέρα, υἱὸς δὲ ἄφρων μυκτηρίζει μητέρα αὐτοῦ.
20 A wise son makes a father glad, but a foolish man despises his mother.
21 Ἀνοήτου τρίβοι ἐνδεεῖς φρενῶν, ἀνὴρ δὲ φρόνιμος κατευθύνων πορεύεται.
21 Folly is joy to one who is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding keeps his way straight.
22 Ὑπερτίθενται λογισμοὺς οἱ μὴ τιμῶντες συνέδρια, ἐν δὲ καρδίαις βουλευομένων μένει βουλή.
22 Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established.
23 Οὐ μὴ ὑπακούσει ὁ κακὸς αὐτῇ, οὐδὲ μὴ εἴπῃ καίριόν τι καὶ καλὸν τῷ κοινῷ.
23 Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth. How good is a word at the right time!
24 Ὁδοὶ ζωῆς διανοήματα συνετοῦ, ἵνα ἐκκλίνας ἐκ τοῦ ᾅδου σωθῇ.
24 The path of life leads upward for the wise, to keep him from going downward to Sheol.
25 Οἴκους ὑβριστῶν κατασπᾷ Κύριος, ἐστήρισε δὲ ὅριον χήρας.
25 Yahweh will uproot the house of the proud, but he will keep the widow’s borders intact.
26 Βδέλυγμα Κυρίῳ λογισμὸς ἄδικος, ἁγνῶν δὲ ῥήσεις σεμναί.
26 Yahweh detests the thoughts of the wicked, but the thoughts of the pure are pleasing.
27 Ἐξόλλυσιν ἑαυτὸν ὁ δωρολήπτης, ὁ δὲ μισῶν δώρων λήψεις σώζεται·
27 He who is greedy for gain troubles his own house, but he who hates bribes will live.
27a ἐλεημοσύναις καὶ πίστεσιν ἀποκαθαίρονται ἁμαρτίαι, τῷ δὲ φόβῳ Κυρίου ἐκκλίνει πᾶς ἀπὸ κακοῦ.
·
28 Καρδίαι δικαίων μελετῶσι πίστεις, στόμα δὲ ἀσεβῶν ἀποκρίνεται κακά·
28 The heart of the righteous weighs answers, but the mouth of the wicked gushes out evil.
28a δεκταὶ παρὰ Κυρίῳ ὁδοὶ ἀνθρώπων δικαίων, διὰ δὲ αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ φίλοι γίνονται.
·
29 Μακρὰν ἀπέχει ὁ Θεὸς ἀπὸ ἀσεβῶν, εὐχαῖς δὲ δικαίων ἐπακούει·
29 Yahweh is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
29a κρείσσων ὀλίγη λῆψις μετὰ δικαιοσύνης, ἢ πολλὰ γεννήματα μετὰ ἀδικίας.
·
29b Καρδία ἀνδρὸς λογιζέσθω δίκαια, ἵνα ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ διορθωθῇ τὰ διαβήματα αὐτοῦ.
·
30 Θεωρῶν ὀφθαλμὸς καλὰ εὐφραίνει καρδίαν, φημη δὲ ἀγαθὴ πιαίνει ὀστᾶ.
30 The light of the eyes rejoices the heart. Good news gives health to the bones. 31 The ear that listens to reproof lives, and will be at home among the wise.
32 Ὃς ἀπωθεῖται παιδείαν, μισεῖ ἑαυτὸν· ὁ δὲ τηρῶν ἐλέγχους, ἀγαπᾷ ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ.
32 He who refuses correction despises his own soul, but he who listens to reproof gets understanding.
33 Φόβος Κυρίου παιδεία καὶ σοφία, καὶ ἀρχὴ δόξης ἀποκριθήσεται αὐτῇ.
33 The fear of Yahweh teaches wisdom. Before honor is humility.
