7:1Υἱέ, φύλασσε ἐμοὺς λόγους, τὰς δὲ ἐμὰς ἐντολὰς κρύψον παρὰ σεαυτῷ·
7:1aaυἱέ, τίμα τὸν κύριον καὶ ἰσχύσεις, πλὴν δὲ αὐτοῦ μὴ φοβοῦ ἄλλον.
7:2φύλαξον ἐμὰς ἐντολὰς καὶ βιώσεις, τοὺς δὲ ἐμοὺς λόγους ὥσπερ κόρας ὀμμάτων·
7:3περίθου δὲ αὐτοὺς σοῖς δακτύλοις, ἐπίγραψον δὲ ἐπὶ τὸ πλάτος τῆς καρδίας σου.
7:4εἰπὸν τὴν σοφίαν σὴν ἀδελφὴν εἶναι, τὴν δὲ φρόνησιν γνώριμον περιποίησαι σεαυτῷ,
7:5ἵνα σε τηρήσῃ ἀπὸ γυναικὸς ἀλλοτρίας καὶ πονηρᾶς, ἐάν σε λόγοις τοῖς πρὸς χάριν ἐμβάληται.
7:6ἀπὸ γὰρ θυρίδος ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτῆς εἰς τὰς πλατείας παρακύπτουσα,
7:7ὃν ἂν ἴδῃ τῶν ἀφρόνων τέκνων νεανίαν ἐνδεῆ φρενῶν,
7:8παραπορευόμενον παρὰ γωνίαν ἐν διόδοις οἴκων αὐτῆς καὶ λαλοῦντα
7:9ἐν σκότει ἑσπερινῷ,
7:10ἡ δὲ γυνὴ συναντᾷ αὐτῷ, εἶδος ἔχουσα πορνικόν. ἡνίκα ἂν ἡσυχία νυκτερινὴ καὶ γνοφώδης, ἣ ποιεῖ νέων ἐξίπτασθαι καρδίας.
7:11ἀνεπτερωμένη δέ ἐστιν καὶ ἄσωτος, ἐν οἴκῳ δὲ οὐχ ἡσυχάζουσιν οἱ πόδες αὐτῆς·
7:12χρόνον γὰρ τινα ἔξω ῥέμβεται, χρόνον δὲ ἐν πλατείαις παρὰ πᾶσαν γωνίαν ἐνεδρεύει.
7:13εἶτα ἐπιλαβομένη ἐφίλησεν αὐτόν, ἀναιδεῖ δὲ προσώπῳ προσεῖπεν αὐτῷ
7:14Θυσία εἰρηνική μοί ἐστιν· σήμερον ἀποδίδωμι τὰς εὐχάς μου·
7:15ἕνεκα τούτου ἐξῆλθον εἰς ὑπάντησίν σοι, ποθοῦσα τὸ σὸν πρόσωπον, εὕρηκά σε.
7:16κειρία τέτακα τὴν κλίνην μου, ἀμφιτάποις δὲ ἔστρωκα τοῖς ἀπʼ Αἰγύπτου·
7:17διέρραγκα τὴν κοίτην μου κρόκῳ, ἐλθὲ καὶ ἀπολαύσωμεν φίλας ἔρωτι. ὄρθρου, τὸν δὲ οἶκόν μου κινναμώμῳ δεῦρο καὶ ἐνκυλισθῶμεν ἔρωτι.
7:19οὐ γὰρ πάρεστιν ὁ ἀνήρ μου ἐν οἴκῳ, πεπόρευται δὲ ὁδὸν μακράν,
7:20ἔνδεσμον ἀργυρίου λαβὼν ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, δἰ ἡμερῶν πολλῶν ἐπανήξει εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ.
7:21ἀπεπλάνησεν δὲ αὐτὸν πολλῇ ὁμιλίᾳ, βρόχοις τε τοῖς ἀπὸ χειλέων ἐξώκειλεν αὐτόν·
7:22ὁ δὲ ἐπηκολούθησεν αὐτῇ κεπφωθείς, ὥσπερ δὲ βοῦς ἐπὶ σφαγὴν ἄγεται, καὶ ὥσπερ κύων ἐπὶ δεσμούς,
7:23ἡ ὡς ἔλαφος τοξεύματι πεπληγὼς εἰς τὸ ἧπαρ· σπεύδει δὲ ὥσπερ ὄρνεον εἰς παγίδα, οὐκ εἰδὼς ὅτι περὶ ψυχῆς τρέχει.
7:24νῦν οὗν, υἱέ, ἄκουέ μου, καὶ πρόσεχε ῥήμασιν στόματός μου.
7:25μὴ ἐκκλινάτω εἰς τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῆς ἡ καρδία σου·
7:26πολλοὺς γὰρ τρώσασα καταβέβληκεν, καὶ ἀναρίθμητοί εἰσιν οὓς πεφόνευκεν·
7:27ὁδοὶ ᾅδου ὁ οἶκος αὐτῆς. κατάγουσαι εἰς τὰ ταμεῖα τοῦ θανάτου.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
