[2]τί τέκνον τηρήσεις τί ῥήσεις θεοῦ πρωτογενές σοὶ λέγω υἱέ τί τέκνον ἐμῆς κοιλίας τί τέκνον ἐμῶν εὐχῶν	[2]Oh my son! Oh the son of my womb! Oh the son of my vows!
[3]μὴ δῷς γυναιξὶ σὸν πλοῦτον καὶ τὸν σὸν νοῦν καὶ βίον εἰς ὑστεροβουλίαν	[3]Give not your strength to women, nor your ways to the extravagance of kings.
[4]μετὰ βουλῆς πάντα ποίει μετὰ βουλῆς οἰνοπότει οἱ δυνάσται θυμώδεις εἰσίν οἶνον δὲ μὴ πινέτωσαν	[4]Of kings, O Moael, be careful of kings who drink wine; and of princes who drink strong drink,
[5]ἵνα μὴ πιόντες ἐπιλάθωνται τῆς σοφίας καὶ ὀρθὰ κρῖναι οὐ μὴ δύνωνται τοὺς ἀσθενεῖς	[5]Lest you drink and forget the law and forsake the judgment of the afflicted.
[6]δίδοτε μέθην τοῖς ἐν λύπαις καὶ οἶνον πίνειν τοῖς ἐν ὀδύναις	[6]Let strong drink be given to those who mourn, and wine to those who are of heavy heart,
[7]ἵνα ἐπιλάθωνται τῆς πενίας καὶ τῶν πόνων μὴ μνησθῶσιν ἔτι	[7]That they may drink, and forget their sorrows, and remember their miseries no more.
[8]ἄνοιγε σὸν στόμα λόγῳ θεοῦ καὶ κρῖνε πάντας ὑγιῶς	[8]Open your mouth with words of truth, and judge all the sons of the wicked.
[9]ἄνοιγε σὸν στόμα καὶ κρῖνε δικαίως διάκρινε δὲ πένητα καὶ ἀσθενῆ	[9]Open your mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy
[10]γυναῖκα ἀνδρείαν τίς εὑρήσει τιμιωτέρα δέ ἐστιν λίθων πολυτελῶν ἡ τοιαύτη	[10]Who can find a diligent woman? For her price is far above rubies.
[11]θαρσεῖ ἐπ αὐτῇ ἡ καρδία τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς ἡ τοιαύτη καλῶν σκύλων οὐκ ἀπορήσει	[11]The heart of her husband safely trusts in her, and her food supplies never diminish.
