He that loveth his son causeth him oft to feel the rod, that he may have joy of him in the end. 2 He that chastiseth his son shall have joy in him, and shall rejoice of him among his acquaintance. 3 He that teacheth his son grieveth the enemy: and before his friends he shall rejoice of him. 4 Though his father die, yet he is as though he were not dead: for he hath left one behind him that is like himself. 5 While he lived, he saw and rejoiced in him: and when he died, he was not sorrowful. 6 He left behind him an avenger against his enemies, and one that shall requite kindness to his friends. 7 He that maketh too much of his son shall bind up his wounds; and his bowels will be troubled at every cry. 8 An horse not broken becometh headstrong: and a child left to himself will be wilful. 9 Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness. 10 Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end. 11 Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies. 12 Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat him on the sides while he is a child, lest he wax stubborn, and be disobedient unto thee, and so bring sorrow to thine heart. 13 Chastise thy son, and hold him to labour, lest his lewd behaviour be an offence unto thee. 14 Better is the poor, being sound and strong of constitution, than a rich man that is afflicted in his body. 15 Health and good estate of body are above all gold, and a strong body above infinite wealth. 16 There is no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart. 17 Death is better than a bitter life or continual sickness. 18 Delicates poured upon a mouth shut up are as messes of meat set upon a grave. 19 What good doeth the offering unto an idol? for neither can it eat nor smell: so is he that is persecuted of the Lord. 20 He seeth with his eyes and groaneth, as an eunuch that embraceth a virgin and sigheth. 21 Give not over thy mind to heaviness, and afflict not thyself in thine own counsel. 22 The gladness of the heart is the life of man, and the joyfulness of a man prolongeth his days. 23 Love thine own soul, and comfort thy heart, remove sorrow far from thee: for sorrow hath killed many, and there is no profit therein. 24 Envy and wrath shorten the life, and carefulness bringeth age before the time. 25 A cheerful and good heart will have a care of his meat and diet. | Sep 1 \u1f41 \u1f00\u03b3\u03b1\u03c0\u1ff6\u03bd \u03c4\u1f78\u03bd \u03c5\u1f31\u1f78\u03bd \u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6

et non palpet proximorum ostia. 2\u00a0Qui docet filium suum laudabitur in illo, et in medio domesticorum in illo gloriabitur. 3\u00a0Qui docet filium suum in zelum mittit inimicum, et in medio amicorum gloriabitur in illo. 4\u00a0Mortuus est pater ejus, et quasi non est mortuus: similem enim reliquit sibi post se. 5\u00a0In vita sua vidit, et l\u00e6tatus est in illo: in obitu suo non est contristatus, nec confusus est coram inimicis: 6\u00a0reliquit enim defensorem domus contra inimicos, et amicis reddentem gratiam. 7\u00a0Pro animabus filiorum colligabit vulnera sua, et super omnem vocem turbabuntur viscera ejus. 8\u00a0Equus indomitus evadit durus, et filius remissus evadet pr\u00e6ceps. 9\u00a0Lacta filium, et paventem te faciet: lude cum eo, et contristabit te. 10\u00a0Non corrideas illi, ne doleas, et in novissimo obstupescent dentes tui. 11\u00a0Non des illi potestatem in juventute, et ne despicias cogitatus illius. 12\u00a0Curva cervicem ejus in juventute, et tunde latera ejus dum infans est, ne forte induret, et non credat tibi, et erit tibi dolor anim\u00e6. 13\u00a0Doce filium tuum, et operare in illo, ne in turpitudinem illius offendas.] 14\u00a0[Melior est pauper sanus, et fortis viribus, quam dives imbecillis et flagellatus malitia. 15\u00a0Salus anim\u00e6 in sanctitate justiti\u00e6 melior est omni auro et argento: et corpus validum quam census immensus. 16\u00a0Non est census super censum salutis corporis, et non est oblectamentum super cordis gaudium. 17\u00a0Melior est mors quam vita amara, et requies \u00e6terna quam languor perseverans. 18\u00a0Bona abscondita in ore clauso, quasi appositiones epularum circumposit\u00e6 sepulchro. 19\u00a0Quid proderit libatio idolo? nec enim manducabit, nec odorabit. 20\u00a0Sic qui effugatur a Domino, portans mercedes iniquitatis: 21\u00a0videns oculis et ingemiscens, sicut spado complectens virginem, et suspirans. 22\u00a0Tristitiam non des anim\u00e6 tu\u00e6, et non affligas temetipsum in consilio tuo. 23\u00a0Jucunditas cordis, h\u00e6c est vita hominis, et thesaurus sine defectione sanctitatis: et exsultatio viri est long\u00e6vitas. 24\u00a0Miserere anim\u00e6 tu\u00e6 placens Deo, et contine: congrega cor tuum in sanctitate ejus, et tristitiam longe repelle a te. 25\u00a0Multos enim occidit tristitia, et non est utilitas in illa. 26\u00a0Zelus et iracundia minuunt dies, et ante tempus senectam adducet cogitatus. 27\u00a0Splendidum cor et bonum in epulis est: epul\u00e6 enim illius diligenter fiunt.] |","title":"Polyglot Bible: Sirach: Sirach 30","type":"page"}
