Notes on this text (1)
LXX Brenton's Greek Septuagint
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Κρείσσων ἀνὴρ ἐλέγχων ἀνδρὸς σκληροτραχήλου, ἐξαπίνης γὰρ φλεγομένου αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν ἴασις.
1 He who is often rebuked and stiffens his neck will be destroyed suddenly, with no remedy.
2 Ἐγκωμιαζομένων δικαίων εὐφρανθήσονται λαοὶ, ἀρχόντων δὲ ἀσεβῶν στένουσιν ἄνδρες.
2 When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan.
3 Ἀνδρὸς φιλοῦντος σοφίαν εὐφραίνεται πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, ὃς δὲ ποιμαίνει πόρνας ἀπολεῖ πλοῦτον.
3 Whoever loves wisdom brings joy to his father; but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.
4 Βασιλεὺς δίκαιος ἀνίστησι χώραν, ἀνὴρ δὲ παράνομος κατασκάπτει.
4 The king by justice makes the land stable, but he who takes bribes tears it down.
5 Ὃς παρασκευάζεται ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἑαυτοῦ φιλου δίκτυον, περιβάλλει αὐτὸ τοῖς ἑαυτοῦ ποσίν.
5 A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.
6 Ἁμαρτάνοντι ἀνδρὶ μεγάλη παγὶς, δίκαιος δὲ ἐν χαρᾷ καὶ ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ ἔσται.
6 An evil man is snared by his sin, but the righteous can sing and be glad.
7 Ἐπίσταται δίκαιος κρίνειν πενιχροῖς, ὁ δὲ ἀσεβὴς οὐ νοεῖ γνῶσιν, καὶ πτωχῷ οὐχ ὑπάρχει νοῦς ἐπιγνώμων.
7 The righteous care about justice for the poor. The wicked aren’t concerned about knowledge.
8 Ἄνδρες ἄνομοι ἐξέκαυσαν πόλιν, σοφοὶ δὲ ἀπέστρεψαν ὀργήν.
8 Mockers stir up a city, but wise men turn away anger.
9 Ἀνὴρ σοφὸς κρινεῖ ἔθνη, ἀνὴρ δὲ φαῦλος ὀργιζόμενος καταγελᾶται καὶ οὐ καταπτήσσει.
9 If a wise man goes to court with a foolish man, the fool rages or scoffs, and there is no peace.
10 Ἄνδρες αἱμάτων μέτοχοι μισοῦσιν ὅσιον, οἱ δὲ εὐθεῖς ἐκζητήσουσι ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ.
10 The bloodthirsty hate a man of integrity; and they seek the life of the upright.
11 Ὅλον τὸν θυμὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκφέρει ἄφρων, σοφὸς δὲ ταμιεύεται κατὰ μέρος.
11 A fool vents all of his anger, but a wise man brings himself under control.
12 Βασιλέως ὑπακούοντος λόγον ἄδικον, πάντες οἱ ὑπʼ αὐτὸν παράνομοι.
12 If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked.
13 Δανιστοῦ καὶ χρεωφειλέτου ἀλλήλοις συνελθόντων, ἐπισκοπὴν ἀμφοτέρων ποιεῖται ὁ Κύριος.
13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: Yahweh gives sight to the eyes of both.
14 Βασιλέως ἐν ἀληθείᾳ κρίνοντος πτωχοὺς, ὁ θρόνος αὐτοῦ εἰς μαρτύριον κατασταθήσεται.
14 The king who fairly judges the poor, his throne shall be established forever.
15 Πληγαὶ καὶ ἔλεγχοι διδόασι σοφίαν, παῖς δὲ πλανώμενος αἰσχύνει γονεῖς αὐτοῦ.
15 The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.
16 Πολλῶν ὄντων ἀσεβῶν πολλαὶγίνονται ἁμαρτίαι, οἱ δὲ δίκαιοι ἐκείνων πιπτόντων κατάφοβοι γίνονται.
16 When the wicked increase, sin increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.
17 Παίδευε υἱόν σου, καὶ ἀναπαύσει σε, καὶ δώσει κόσμον τῇ ψυχῇ σου.
17 Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will bring delight to your soul.
18 Οὐ μὴ ὑπάρξῃ ἐξηγητὴς ἔθνει παρανόμῳ, ὁ δὲ φυλάσσων τὸν νόμον μακαριστός.
18 Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; but one who keeps the law is blessed.
19 Λόγοις οὐ παιδευθήσεται οἰκέτης σκληρός· ἐὰν γὰρ καὶ νοήσῃ, ἀλλʼ οὐχ ὑπακούσεται.
19 A servant can’t be corrected by words. Though he understands, yet he will not respond.
20 Ἐὰν ἴδῃς ἄνδρα ταχὺν ἐν λόγοις, γίνωσκε ὅτι ἐλπίδα ἔχει μᾶλλον ὁ ἄφρων αὐτοῦ.
20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 Ὃς κατασπαταλᾷ ἐκ παιδὸς, οἰκέτης ἔσται, ἔσχατον δὲ ὀδυνηθήσεται ἐφʼ ἑαυτῷ·
21 He who pampers his servant from youth will have him become a son in the end.
22 Ἀνὴρ θυμώδης ἐγείρει νεῖκος, ἀνὴρ δὲ ὀργίλος ἐξώρυξεν ἁμαρτίαν.
22 An angry man stirs up strife, and a wrathful man abounds in sin.
23 Ὕβρις ἄνδρα ταπεινοῖ, τοὺς δὲ ταπεινόφρονας ἐρείδει δόξῃ Κύριος.
23 A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.
24 Ὃς μερίζεται κλέπτῃ, μισεῖ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχήν· ἐὰν δὲ ὅρκου προτεθέντος ἀκούσαντες μὴ ἀναγγείλωσι,
24 Whoever is an accomplice of a thief is an enemy of his own soul. He takes an oath, but dares not testify.
25 φοβηθέντες καὶ αἰσχυνθέντες ἀνθρώπους ὑπεσκελίσθησαν, ὁ δὲ πεποιθὼς ἐπὶ Κυρίῳ εὐφρανθήσεται· ἀσέβεια ἀνδρὶ δίδωσι σφάλμα, ὃς δὲ πέποιθεν ἐπὶ τῷ δεσπότῃ σωθήσεται.
25 The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in Yahweh is kept safe.
26 Πολλοὶ θεραπεύουσι πρόσωπα ἡγουμένων, παρὰ δὲ Κυρίου γίνεται τὸ δίκαιον ἀνδρί.
26 Many seek the ruler’s favor, but a man’s justice comes from Yahweh.
27 Βδέλυγμα δίκαιος ἀνὴρ ἀνδρὶ ἀδίκῳ, βδέλυγμα δὲ ἀνόμῳ κατευθύνουσα ὁδός.
27 A dishonest man detests the righteous, and the upright in their ways detest the wicked.
