| [1]He that revengeth shall find vengeance from the Lord, and he will surely keep his sins in remembrance. |
[1]ὁ ἐκδικῶν παρὰ κυρίου εὑρήσει ἐκδίκησιν καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ διατηρῶν διατηρήσει |
| [2]Forgive thy neighbour the hurt that he hath done unto thee, so shall thy sins also be forgiven when thou prayest. |
[2]ἄφες ἀδίκημα τῷ πλησίον σου καὶ τότε δεηθέντος σου αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου λυθήσονται |
| [3]One man beareth hatred against another, and doth he seek pardon from the Lord? |
[3]ἄνθρωπος ἀνθρώπῳ συντηρεῖ ὀργήν καὶ παρὰ κυρίου ζητεῖ ἴασιν |
| [4]He sheweth no mercy to a man, which is like himself: and doth he ask forgiveness of his own sins? |
[4]ἐπ ἄνθρωπον ὅμοιον αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔχει ἔλεος καὶ περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ δεῖται |
| [5]If he that is but flesh nourish hatred, who will intreat for pardon of his sins? |
[5]αὐτὸς σὰρξ ὢν διατηρεῖ μῆνιν τίς ἐξιλάσεται τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ |
| [6]Remember thy end, and let enmity cease; remember corruption and death, and abide in the commandments. |
[6]μνήσθητι τὰ ἔσχατα καὶ παῦσαι ἐχθραίνων καταφθορὰν καὶ θάνατον καὶ ἔμμενε ἐντολαῖς |
| [7]Remember the commandments, and bear no malice to thy neighbour: remember the covenant of the Highest, and wink at ignorance. |
[7]μνήσθητι ἐντολῶν καὶ μὴ μηνίσῃς τῷ πλησίον καὶ διαθήκην ὑψίστου καὶ πάριδε ἄγνοιαν |
| [8]Abstain from strife, and thou shalt diminish thy sins: for a furious man will kindle strife, |
[8]ἀπόσχου ἀπὸ μάχης καὶ ἐλαττώσεις ἁμαρτίας ἄνθρωπος γὰρ θυμώδης ἐκκαύσει μάχην |
| [9]A sinful man disquieteth friends, and maketh debate among them that be at peace. |
[9]καὶ ἀνὴρ ἁμαρτωλὸς ταράξει φίλους καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον εἰρηνευόντων ἐμβαλεῖ διαβολήν |
| [10]As the matter of the fire is, so it burneth: and as a man's strength is, so is his wrath; and according to his riches his anger riseth; and the stronger they are which contend, the more they will be inflamed. |
[10]κατὰ τὴν ὕλην τοῦ πυρὸς οὕτως ἐκκαυθήσεται καὶ κατὰ τὴν στερέωσιν τῆς μάχης ἐκκαυθήσεται κατὰ τὴν ἰσχὺν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ ἔσται καὶ κατὰ τὸν πλοῦτον ἀνυψώσει ὀργὴν αὐτοῦ |
| [11]An hasty contention kindleth a fire: and an hasty fighting sheddeth blood. |
[11]ἔρις κατασπευδομένη ἐκκαίει πῦρ καὶ μάχη κατασπεύδουσα ἐκχέει αἷμα |
| [12]If thou blow the spark, it shall burn: if thou spit upon it, it shall be quenched: and both these come out of thy mouth. |
[12]ἐὰν φυσήσῃς εἰς σπινθῆρα ἐκκαήσεται καὶ ἐὰν πτύσῃς ἐπ αὐτόν σβεσθήσεται καὶ ἀμφότερα ἐκ τοῦ στόματός σου ἐκπορεύεται |
| [13]Curse the whisperer and doubletongued: for such have destroyed many that were at peace. |
[13]ψίθυρον καὶ δίγλωσσον καταράσασθε πολλοὺς γὰρ εἰρηνεύοντας ἀπώλεσεν |
| [14]A backbiting tongue hath disquieted many, and driven them from nation to nation: strong cities hath it pulled down, and overthrown the houses of great men. |
[14]γλῶσσα τρίτη πολλοὺς ἐσάλευσεν καὶ διέστησεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ ἔθνους εἰς ἔθνος καὶ πόλεις ὀχυρὰς καθεῖλεν καὶ οἰκίας μεγιστάνων κατέστρεψεν |
| [15]A backbiting tongue hath cast out virtuous women, and deprived them of their labours. |
[15]γλῶσσα τρίτη γυναῖκας ἀνδρείας ἐξέβαλεν καὶ ἐστέρεσεν αὐτὰς τῶν πόνων αὐτῶν |
| [16]Whoso hearkeneth unto it shall never find rest, and never dwell quietly. |
[16]ὁ προσέχων αὐτῇ οὐ μὴ εὕρῃ ἀνάπαυσιν οὐδὲ κατασκηνώσει μεθ ἡσυχίας |
| [17]The stroke of the whip maketh marks in the flesh: but the stroke of the tongue breaketh the bones. |
[17]πληγὴ μάστιγος ποιεῖ μώλωπα πληγὴ δὲ γλώσσης συγκλάσει ὀστᾶ |
| [18]Many have fallen by the edge of the sword: but not so many as have fallen by the tongue. |
[18]πολλοὶ ἔπεσαν ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας καὶ οὐχ ὡς οἱ πεπτωκότες διὰ γλῶσσαν |
| [19]Well is he that is defended through the venom thereof; who hath not drawn the yoke thereof, nor hath been bound in her bands. |
[19]μακάριος ὁ σκεπασθεὶς ἀπ αὐτῆς ὃς οὐ διῆλθεν ἐν τῷ θυμῷ αὐτῆς ὃς οὐχ εἵλκυσεν τὸν ζυγὸν αὐτῆς καὶ ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς αὐτῆς οὐκ ἐδέθη |
| [20]For the yoke thereof is a yoke of iron, and the bands thereof are bands of brass. |
[20]ὁ γὰρ ζυγὸς αὐτῆς ζυγὸς σιδηροῦς καὶ οἱ δεσμοὶ αὐτῆς δεσμοὶ χάλκειοι |
| [21]The death thereof is an evil death, the grave were better than it. |
[21]θάνατος πονηρὸς ὁ θάνατος αὐτῆς καὶ λυσιτελὴς μᾶλλον ὁ ᾅδης αὐτῆς |
| [22]It shall not have rule over them that fear God, neither shall they be burned with the flame thereof. |
[22]οὐ μὴ κρατήσῃ εὐσεβῶν καὶ ἐν τῇ φλογὶ αὐτῆς οὐ καήσονται |
| [23]Such as forsake the Lord shall fall into it; and it shall burn in them, and not be quenched; it shall be sent upon them as a lion, and devour them as a leopard. |
[23]οἱ καταλείποντες κύριον ἐμπεσοῦνται εἰς αὐτήν καὶ ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐκκαήσεται καὶ οὐ μὴ σβεσθῇ ἐπαποσταλήσεται αὐτοῖς ὡς λέων καὶ ὡς πάρδαλις λυμανεῖται αὐτούς |
| [24]Look that thou hedge thy possession about with thorns, and bind up thy silver and gold, |
[24]ἰδὲ περίφραξον τὸ κτῆμά σου ἀκάνθαις τὸ ἀργύριόν σου καὶ τὸ χρυσίον κατάδησον |
| [25]And weigh thy words in a balance, and make a door and bar for thy mouth. |
[25]καὶ τοῖς λόγοις σου ποίησον ζυγὸν καὶ σταθμὸν καὶ τῷ στόματί σου ποίησον θύραν καὶ μοχλόν |
| [26]Beware thou slide not by it, lest thou fall before him that lieth in wait. |
[26]πρόσεχε μήπως ὀλίσθῃς ἐν αὐτῇ μὴ πέσῃς κατέναντι ἐνεδρεύοντος |
