ΣΟΦΙΑ ΣΕΙΡΑΧ

20

27 Ὁ σοφὸς ἐν λόγοις προάξει ἑαυτόν,
καὶ ἄνθρωπος φρόνιμος ἀρέσει μεγιστᾶσιν.
28 ὁ ἐργαζόμενος γῆν ἀνυψώσει θιμωνιὰν αὐτοῦ,
καὶ ὁ ἀρέσκων μεγιστᾶσιν ἐξιλάσεται ἀδικίαν.
29 ξένια καὶ δῶρα ἀποτυφλοῖ ὀφθαλμοὺς σοφῶν,
καὶ ὡς φιμὸς ἐν στόματι ἀποτρέπει ἐλεγμούς.
30 σοφία κεκρυμμένη καὶ θησαυρὸς ἀφανής,
τίς ὠφέλεια ἐν ἀμφοτέροις;
31 κρείσσων ἄνθρωπος ἀποκρύπτων τὴν μωρίαν αὐτοῦ
ἢ ἄνθρωπος ἀποκρύπτων τὴν σοφίαν αὐτοῦ.
