1. Dead flies make the perfumer’s ointment give off a stench; so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. A wise man’s heart inclines him to the right, but a fool’s heart to the left.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. Even when the fool walks on the road, he lacks sense, and he says to everyone that he is a fool.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. If the anger of the ruler rises against you, do not leave your place, for calmness will lay great offenses to rest.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
5. There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, as it were an error proceeding from the ruler:
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. folly is set in many high places, and the rich sit in a low place.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. I have seen slaves on horses, and princes walking on the ground like slaves.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. He who digs a pit will fall into it, and a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. He who quarries stones is hurt by them, and he who splits logs is endangered by them.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
11. If the serpent bites before it is charmed, there is no advantage to the charmer.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. The words of a wise man’s mouth win him favor, but the lips of a fool consume him.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
13. The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is evil madness.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
14. A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him what will be after him?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. The toil of a fool wearies him, for he does not know the way to the city.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
16. Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes feast in the morning!
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of the nobility, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. Through sloth the roof sinks in, and through indolence the house leaks.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. Bread is made for laughter, and wine gladdens life, and money answers everything.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. Even in your thoughts, do not curse the king, nor in your bedroom curse the rich, for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.
