Wisdom of Solomon 15:3
English: For to know thee is perfect righteousness: yea, to know thy power is the root of immortality.
Greek: τὸ γὰρ ἐπίστασθαί σε ὁλόκληρος δικαιοσύνη, καὶ εἰδέναι σου τὸ κράτος ῥίζα ἀθανασίας.
Coptic: ουδικαιοσυνη γαρ εσjηκ εβολ πε πσουωνγ αυω τνουνε μπωνh πε πσοουν μπεκαμαhτε.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:4
English: For neither did the mischievous invention of men deceive us, nor an image spotted with divers colours, the painter’s fruitless labour;
Greek: οὔτε γὰρ ἐπλάνησεν ἡµᾶς ἀνθρώπων κακότεχνος ἐπίνοια οὐδὲ σκιαγράφων πόνος ἄκαρπος, εἶδος σπιλωθὲν χρώµασιν διηλλαγµένοις,
Coptic: ουτε γαρ μπσπλανα μμον νcι τεhιη εθοου μν πμεευε νρρωμε ουτε πhισε νατκαρποσ νρρεfσεh hαειβεσ μν νεσμοτ ετjηh hεναυαν ευsοβε.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:5
English: The sight whereof enticeth fools to lust after it, and so they desire the form of a dead image, that hath no breath.
Greek: ὧν ὄψις ἄφροσιν εἰς ὄρεξιν ἔρχεται, ποθεῖ τε νεκρᾶς εἰκόνος εἶδος ἄπνουν.
Coptic: ναι ετε sαρε ναθητ επιθυμι εροου. ευμε μπινε νθικων ετμοουτ ετε μν πνευμα νhητσ
Wisdom of Solomon 15:6
English: Both they that make them, they that desire them, and they that worship them, are lovers of evil things, and are worthy to have such things to trust upon.
Greek: κακῶν ἐρασταὶ ἄξιοί τε τοιούτων ἐλπίδων καὶ οἱ δρῶντες καὶ οἱ ποθοῦντες καὶ οἱ σεβόµενοι.
Coptic: ευο μμαι νεθοου. ευμπsα ννhελπισ ντειμινε νcι νετταμιο μμοου μν νετsμsε ναυ.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:8
English: And employing his labours lewdly, he maketh a vain god of the same clay, even he which a little before was made of earth himself, and within a little while after returneth to the same, out when his life which was lent him shall be demanded.
Greek: καὶ κακόµοχθος θεὸν µάταιον ἐκ τοῦ αὐτοῦ πλάσσει πηλοῦ ὃς πρὸ µικροῦ ἐκ γῆς γενηθεὶς µετ’ ὀλίγον πορεύεται ἐξ ἧς ἐλήµφθη, τὸ τῆς ψυχῆς ἀπαιτηθεὶς χρέος.
Coptic: αυω πρεfhαστf εππεθοου εβολ hμ πιομε νουωτ αfπλασσε νουνουτε παι ενταυταμιοf εβολ hμ πκαh hαθη νουκουι μννσα κεκουι εfναβωκ επμα νταfει εβολ νhητf εαυfι τεfψυχη ντοοτf.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:9
English: Notwithstanding his care is, not that he shall have much labour, nor that his life is short: but striveth to excel goldsmiths and silversmiths, and endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it his glory to make counterfeit things.
Greek: ἀλλ’ ἔστιν αὐτῷ φροντὶς οὐχ ὅτι µέλλει κάµνειν οὐδ’ ὅτι βραχυτελῆ βίον ἔχει, ἀλλ’ ἀντερείδεται µὲν χρυσουργοῖς καὶ ἀργυροχόοις χαλκοπλάστας τε µιµεῖται καὶ δόξαν ἡγεῖται ὅτι κίβδηλα πλάσσει.
Coptic: αλλα νεffιροουs αν jε εfναμου η jε ουκουι πε πεfαhε αλλα εftτων μν νhαυνουβ μν νρεfρhατ μν νσα νhομντ εfsουsου μμοf jε εfταμιε σμοτ ββλjε.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:10
English: His heart is ashes, his hope is more vile than earth, and his life of less value than clay:
Greek: σποδὸς ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ, καὶ γῆς εὐτελεστέρα ἡ ἐλπὶς αὐτοῦ, πηλοῦ τε ἀτιµότερος ὁ βίος αὐτοῦ,
Coptic: ευκρμεσ πε πεfhητ αυω τεfhελπισ σοsf ευκαh αυω πεfωνh σηs ευομε
Wisdom of Solomon 15:11
English: Forasmuch as he knew not his Maker, and him that inspired into him an active soul, and breathed in a living spirit.
Greek: ὅτι ἠγνόησεν τὸν πλάσαντα αὐτὸν καὶ τὸν ἐµπνεύσαντα αὐτῷ ψυχὴν ἐνεργοῦσαν καὶ ἐµφυσήσαντα πνεῦµα ζωτικόν,
Coptic: εβολ jε μπfσουν πενταfπλασσε μμοf πενταfνιfε εhουν εhραf νουψυχη εσενεργει αυω πενταft ναf νουπνευμα νωνh
Wisdom of Solomon 15:14
English: And all the enemies of thy people, that hold them in subjection, are most foolish, and are more miserable than very babes.
Greek: πάντες δὲ ἀφρονέστατοι καὶ τάλανες ὑπὲρ ψυχὴν νηπίου οἱ ἐχθροὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου καταδυναστεύσαντες αὐτόν,
Coptic: hνεβιην νε αυω ναθητ νε εhουε ουψυχη νsηρε sημ νjιjεευ μπεκλαοσ ετjι μμοf νcονσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:15
English: For they counted all the idols of the heathen to be gods: which neither have the use of eyes to see, nor noses to draw breath, nor ears to hear, nor fingers of hands to handle; and as for their feet, they are slow to go.
Greek: ὅτι καὶ πάντα τὰ εἴδωλα τῶν ἐθνῶν ἐλογίσαντο θεούς, οἷς οὔτε ὀµµάτων χρῆσις εἰς ὅρασιν οὔτε ῥῖνες εἰς συνολκὴν ἀέρος οὔτε ὦτα ἀκούειν οὔτε δάκτυλοι χειρῶν εἰς ψηλάφησιν καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτῶν ἀργοὶ πρὸς ἐπίβασιν.
Coptic: jε νειδωλον τηρου ννεεθνοσ ευμεευε jε hν νουτε νε ναι ετε νσεναυ εβολ αν hν νευβαλ ουτε νσεsωλμ αν hν sααντου ουτε νσεσωτμ αν hν νευμααjε ουτε νσεcομcμ αν hν ντηηβε ννευcιj νευκεουερητε hεναργον νε εμευμοοsε.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:16
English: For man made them, and he that borrowed his own spirit fashioned them: but no man can make a god like unto himself.
Greek: ἄνθρωπος γὰρ ἐποίησεν αὐτούς, καὶ τὸ πνεῦµα δεδανεισµένος ἔπλασεν αὐτούς· οὐδεὶς γὰρ αὐτῷ ὅµοιον ἄνθρωπος ἰσχύει πλάσαι θεόν·
Coptic: ουρωμε γαρ ερε πεfπνευμα εροf πενταfταμιοου μν scομ δε λλααυ νρωμε επλασσε νουνουτε εfεινε μμοf.
Wisdom of Solomon 15:17
English: For being mortal, he worketh a dead thing with wicked hands: for he himself is better than the things which he worshippeth: whereas he lived once, but they never.
Greek: θνητὸς δὲ ὢν νεκρὸν ἐργάζεται χερσὶν ἀνόµοις· κρείττων γάρ ἐστιν τῶν σεβασµάτων αὐτοῦ, ὧν αὐτὸς µὲν ἔζησεν, ἐκεῖνα δὲ οὐδέποτε. —
Coptic: ουρεfμουτε δε fρhωβ ον επετμοουτ hν νεfcιj νανομον ντοf γαρ fσοτπ ενετfsμsε μμοου jε ντοf μεν fονh νη δε μπουωνh ενεh.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:2
English: Instead of which punishment, dealing graciously with thine own people, thou preparedst for them meat of a strange taste, even quails to stir up their appetite:
Greek: ἀνθ’ ἧς κολάσεως εὐεργετήσας τὸν λαόν σου εἰς ἐπιθυµίαν ὀρέξεως ξένην γεῦσιν τροφὴν ἡτοίµασας ὀρτυγοµήτραν,
Coptic: επμα ντεικολασισ ακρπετνανουf μπεκλαοσ ακσοβτε ναυ νουhη μπηρα νhρε hν ουtπε ββρρε εσjωκ εβολ ντευεπιθυμια
Wisdom of Solomon 16:3
English: To the end that they, desiring food, might for the ugly sight of the beasts sent among them lothe even that, which they must needs desire; but these, suffering penury for a short space, might be made partakers of a strange taste.
Greek: ἵνα ἐκεῖνοι µὲν ἐπιθυµοῦντες τροφὴν διὰ τὴν εἰδέχθειαν τῶν ἐπαπεσταλµένων καὶ τὴν ἀναγκαίαν ὄρεξιν ἀποστρέφωνται, αὐτοὶ δὲ ἐπ’ ὀλίγον ἐνδεεῖς γενόµενοι καὶ ξένης µετάσχωσι γεύσεως.
Coptic: jεκαασ νη μεν ευεπιθυμι εουωμ νσετμcμcομ εjι ντευhρε ετβε νενταυτννοουσου εjωου ναι δε ντοου αυsπhισε νουsημ αυjι tπε νουhρε ββρρε.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:4
English: For it was requisite, that upon them exercising tyranny should come penury, which they could not avoid: but to these it should only be shewed how their enemies were tormented.
Greek: ἔδει γὰρ ἐκείνοις µὲν ἀπαραίτητον ἔνδειαν ἐπελθεῖν τυραννοῦσιν, τούτοις δὲ µόνον δειχθῆναι πῶς οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῶν ἐβασανίζοντο.
Coptic: ssε γαρ ετρε ουhκο εfναsτ ει εhραι εjν νη ετο ρρεfjιjναh ναι δε εταμοου μματε εθε ενταυβασανιζε ννευjαjε.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:5
English: For when the horrible fierceness of beasts came upon these, and they perished with the stings of crooked serpents, thy wrath endured not for ever:
Greek: Καὶ γὰρ ὅτε αὐτοῖς δεινὸς ἐπῆλθεν θηρίων θυµὸς δήγµασίν τε σκολιῶν διεφθείροντο ὄφεων, οὐ µέχρι τέλους ἔµεινεν ἡ ὀργή σου·
Coptic: και γαρ ντερεfει ον εhραι εjωου νcι πcωντ ννεθηριον αυλωκσ μμοου hιτν hνhοf ευναsτ μπε τεκοργη μουν εβολ sα πτηρf.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:7
English: For he that turned himself toward it was not saved by the thing that he saw, but by thee, that art the Saviour of all.
Greek: ὁ γὰρ ἐπιστραφεὶς οὐ διὰ τὸ θεωρούµενον ἐσῴζετο, ἀλλὰ διὰ σὲ τὸν πάντων σωτῆρα.
Coptic: πεντακτοsf γαρ εsαfνουhμ αν ετβε πετfναυ μμοf αλλα ετβητκ πσωτηρ νουον νιμ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:8
English: And in this thou madest thine enemies confess, that it is thou who deliverest from all evil:
Greek: καὶ ἐν τούτῳ δὲ ἔπεισας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἡµῶν ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ῥυόµενος ἐκ παντὸς κακοῦ·
Coptic: hμ παι δε ακταμε νενjαjε jε ντοκ πεsακτουjο εβολ hμ πεθοου νιμ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:9
English: For them the bitings of grasshoppers and flies killed, neither was there found any remedy for their life: for they were worthy to be punished by such.
Greek: οὓς µὲν γὰρ ἀκρίδων καὶ µυιῶν ἀπέκτεινεν δήγµατα, καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθη ἴαµα τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἄξιοι ἦσαν ὑπὸ τοιούτων κολασθῆναι·
Coptic: νη μεν α hενsjε μν hεναf νουhορ μοουτου ευλωκσ μμοου αυω μπουhε εταλcο ννευψυχη jε νευμπsα νκολαζε μμοου hιτν hν τεειμινε
Wisdom of Solomon 16:10
English: But thy sons not the very teeth of venomous dragons overcame: for thy mercy was ever by them, and healed them.
Greek: τοὺς δὲ υἱούς σου οὐδὲ ἰοβόλων δρακόντων ἐνίκησαν ὀδόντες, τὸ ἔλεος γάρ σου ἀντιπαρῆλθεν καὶ ἰάσατο αὐτούς.
Coptic: νεκsηρε δε ντοου μπουjρο εροου νcι νοβhε ννhοf νβακματου πεκνα γαρ αfει εjωου αfταλcοου.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:11
English: For they were pricked, that they should remember thy words; and were quickly saved, that not falling into deep forgetfulness, they might be continually mindful of thy goodness.
Greek: εἰς γὰρ ὑπόµνησιν τῶν λογίων σου ἐνεκεντρίζοντο καὶ ὀξέως διεσῴζοντο, ἵνα µὴ εἰς βαθεῖαν ἐµπεσόντες λήθην ἀπερίσπαστοι γένωνται τῆς σῆς εὐεργεσίας.
Coptic: νταυτοβσου γαρ ετρευρπμεευε ννεκsαjε αυω ντευνου αυουjαι jε ννε ουνοc νωβs ταhοου νσερπωβs ννεκπετνανουου.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:12
English: For it was neither herb, nor mollifying plaister, that restored them to health: but thy word, O Lord, which healeth all things.
Greek: καὶ γὰρ οὔτε βοτάνη οὔτε µάλαγµα ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτούς, ἀλλὰ ὁ σός, κύριε, λόγος ὁ πάντας ἰώµενος.
Coptic: ουτε γαρ νουντηc αν ουτε νουπαhρε αν τεντασταλcοου αλλα πεκsαjε πε πjοεισ εττουjο νουον νιμ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:14
English: A man indeed killeth through his malice: and the spirit, when it is gone forth, returneth not; neither the soul received up cometh again.
Greek: ἄνθρωπος δὲ ἀποκτέννει µὲν τῇ κακίᾳ αὐτοῦ, ἐξελθὸν δὲ πνεῦµα οὐκ ἀναστρέφει οὐδὲ ἀναλύει ψυχὴν παραληµφθεῖσαν.
Coptic: πρωμε δε sαfμουουτ hν τεfκακια ερεsαν πεπνευμα ει εβολ αυω τεfψυχη μεσκοτσ εροf.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:15
English: But it is not possible to escape thine hand.
Greek: Τὴν δὲ σὴν χεῖρα φυγεῖν ἀδύνατόν ἐστιν·
Coptic: μν λααυ ναscμcομ επωτ ενεκcιj.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:17
English: For, which is most to be wondered at, the fire had more force in the water, that quencheth all things: for the world fighteth for the righteous.
Greek: τὸ γὰρ παραδοξότατον, ἐν τῷ πάντα σβεννύντι ὕδατι πλεῖον ἐνήργει τὸ πῦρ, ὑπέρµαχος γὰρ ὁ κόσµος ἐστὶν δικαίων·
Coptic: τεsπηρε γαρ τε jε νερε πκωhτ ενεργει νhουο επμοου ετωsμ μπτηρf πκοσμοσ γαρ sαfμιsε εjν νδικαιοσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:18
English: For sometime the flame was mitigated, that it might not burn up the beasts that were sent against the ungodly; but themselves might see and perceive that they were persecuted with the judgment of God.
Greek: ποτὲ µὲν γὰρ ἡµεροῦτο φλόξ, ἵνα µὴ καταφλέξῃ τὰ ἐπ’ ἀσεβεῖς ἀπεσταλµένα ζῷα, ἀλλ’ αὐτοὶ βλέποντες εἰδῶσιν ὅτι θεοῦ κρίσει ἐλαύνονται·
Coptic: hενσοπ μεν ντε πκωhτ αροs νfτμρωκh ννζωον νταυντου εjν νασεβησ jεκαασ ευεναυ νσεειμε jε ευθμκο μμοου hιτν τεκρισισ μπνουτε
Wisdom of Solomon 16:19
English: And at another time it burneth even in the midst of water above the power of fire, that it might destroy the fruits of an unjust land.
Greek: ποτὲ δὲ καὶ µεταξὺ ὕδατος ὑπὲρ τὴν πυρὸς δύναµιν φλέγει, ἵνα ἀδίκου γῆς γενήµατα διαφθείρῃ.
Coptic: hνσοπ δε hν τεμητε μπμοου νfρωκh μμοου εhου ετcομ ντσατε jεκαασ εfετακε νκαρποσ μπκαh νρρεfjινcονσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:21
English: For thy sustenance declared thy sweetness unto thy children, and serving to the appetite of the eater, tempered itself to every man’s liking.
Greek: ἡ µὲν γὰρ ὑπόστασίς σου τὴν σὴν πρὸς τέκνα ἐνεφάνιζεν γλυκύτητα, τῇ δὲ τοῦ προσφεροµένου ἐπιθυµίᾳ ὑπηρετῶν πρὸς ὅ τις ἐβούλετο µετεκιρνᾶτο.
Coptic: τcομ γαρ μπεκhλοc ασουωνh εβολ εhουν ενεκsηρε εfsμsε γαρ μπουωs ννετjι μμοf νεfsιβε πε hμ πετ ερε πουα πουα επιθυμει εροf.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:22
English: But snow and ice endured the fire, and melted not, that they might know that fire burning in the hail, and sparkling in the rain, did destroy the fruits of the enemies.
Greek: χιὼν δὲ καὶ κρύσταλλος ὑπέµεινε πῦρ καὶ οὐκ ἐτήκετο, ἵνα γνῶσιν ὅτι τοὺς τῶν ἐχθρῶν καρποὺς κατέφθειρε πῦρ φλεγόµενον ἐν τῇ χαλάζῃ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ὑετοῖς διαστράπτον·
Coptic: πχιων αυω πεκρυσταλοσ αυfι hα πκωhτ μπουβωλ εβολ. jεκασ ευεειμε jε πκωhτ αfτακε νκαρποσ ννjαjε. εfjερο hν τεχαλαζα αυω εfμουh ννhωου. αυω αfρπωβs ντεfκεcομ
Wisdom of Solomon 16:23
English: But this again did even forget his own strength, that the righteous might be nourished.
Greek: τοῦτο πάλιν δ’, ἵνα τραφῶσιν δίκαιοι, καὶ τῆς ἰδίας ἐπιλέλησται δυνάµεως.
Coptic: παι δε ον jεκασ ερε νδικαιοσ σαανs.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:24
English: For the creature that serveth thee, who art the Maker increaseth his strength against the unrighteous for their punishment, and abateth his strength for the benefit of such as put their trust in thee.
Greek: Ἡ γὰρ κτίσις σοὶ τῷ ποιήσαντι ὑπηρετοῦσα ἐπιτείνεται εἰς κόλασιν κατὰ τῶν ἀδίκων καὶ ἀνίεται εἰς εὐεργεσίαν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἐπὶ σοὶ πεποιθότων.
Coptic: τεκτισισ γαρ εσsμsε νακ πενταfταμιοσ. hνσοπ μεν νσνsοτ ευκολασισ νρρεfjινcονσ. hνσοπ δε ον νσβωs ευμτον ννετναhτε εροκ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:25
English: Therefore even then was it altered into all fashions, and was obedient to thy grace, that nourisheth all things, according to the desire of them that had need:
Greek: διὰ τοῦτο καὶ τότε εἰς πάντα µεταλλευοµένη τῇ παντοτρόφῳ σου δωρεᾷ ὑπηρέτει πρὸς τὴν τῶν δεοµένων θέλησιν,
Coptic: ετβε παι ον μπευοειs ετμμαυ νεσsιβε εhωβ νιμ εσsμsε ντεκδωρεα εσαανs μπτηρf νναhρν πουωs ννετhκαειτ
Wisdom of Solomon 16:28
English: That it might be known, that we must prevent the sun to give thee thanks, and at the dayspring pray unto thee.
Greek: ὅπως γνωστὸν ᾖ ὅτι δεῖ φθάνειν τὸν ἥλιον ἐπ’ εὐχαριστίαν σου καὶ πρὸς ἀνατολὴν φωτὸς ἐντυγχάνειν σοι·
Coptic: jεκασ ευεειμε jε ssε hα θη νsα μπρη εsπhμοτ ντοοτκ αυω εsληλ επεειβτ εροκ.
Wisdom of Solomon 16:29
English: For the hope of the unthankful shall melt away as the winter’s hoar frost, and shall run away as unprofitable water.
Greek: ἀχαρίστου γὰρ ἐλπὶς ὡς χειµέριος πάχνη τακήσεται καὶ ῥυήσεται ὡς ὕδωρ ἄχρηστον.
Coptic: θελπισ γαρ μπατhμοτ ναβωλ εβολ νθε μπjαf ντεπρω αυω σναhατε νθε νουμοου νατsαυ.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:1
English: For great are thy judgments, and cannot be expressed: therefore unnurtured souls have erred.
Greek: Μεγάλαι γάρ σου αἱ κρίσεις καὶ δυσδιήγητοι· διὰ τοῦτο ἀπαίδευτοι ψυχαὶ ἐπλανήθησαν.
Coptic: hννοc γαρ νε νεκhαπ ννευsταhοου ετβε παι αυσωρμ νcι νεψυχη ννατσβω.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:2
English: For when unrighteous men thought to oppress the holy nation; they being shut up in their houses, the prisoners of darkness, and fettered with the bonds of a long night, lay there exiled from the eternal providence.
Greek: ὑπειληφότες γὰρ καταδυναστεύειν ἔθνος ἅγιον ἄνοµοι δέσµιοι σκότους καὶ µακρᾶς πεδῆται νυκτὸς κατακλεισθέντες ὀρόφοις φυγάδες τῆς αἰωνίου προνοίας ἔκειντο.
Coptic: ευμεευε γαρ νcι νανομοσ εjι νουhεθνοσ εfουααβ νcονσ εαυμορου hν ουκακε μν ουνοc νεινε νhομντ ντευsη εαυοτπου εhουν ευηει αυsωπε ευτcαειηυ hιτν τεπρονοια ενεh.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:3
English: For while they supposed to lie hid in their secret sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfulness, being horribly astonished, and troubled with strange apparitions.
Greek: λανθάνειν γὰρ νοµίζοντες ἐπὶ κρυφαίοις ἁµαρτήµασιν ἀφεíεῖ λήθης παρακαλύµµατι ἐσκορπίσθησαν θαµβούµενοι δεινῶς καὶ ἰνδάλµασιν ἐκταρασσόµενοι.
Coptic: ευρνοβε γαρ ευμεευε jε ευναshωπ αfθμκοου hν ουhβσ νκακε μν ουωβs ευθρsο μμοου εματε αυω ευsτορτρ μμοου hιτν hνhρβ.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:7
English: As for the illusions of art magick, they were put down, and their vaunting in wisdom was reproved with disgrace.
Greek: µαγικῆς δὲ ἐµπαίγµατα κατέκειτο τέχνης, καὶ τῆς ἐπὶ φρονήσει ἀλαζονείας ἔλεγχος ἐφύβριστος·
Coptic: νερε ναι δε sοοπ ννοcνεc νττεχνη νρρεfρhικ αυω νjπιο hι σωs ντεμντβαβε ρωμε ντευσοφια.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:8
English: For they, that promised to drive away terrors and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of fear, worthy to be laughed at.
Greek: οἱ γὰρ ὑπισχνούµενοι δείµατα καὶ ταραχὰς ἀπελαύνειν ψυχῆς νοσούσης, οὗτοι καταγέλαστον εὐλάβειαν ἐνόσουν.
Coptic: εsαυερητ γαρ νhενκοουε ννουj εβολ hννhοτε μν νεsτορτρ ννεψυχη ετsωνε ντοου hωου ον νευsωνε πε hν ουhοτε νσωβε.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:9
English: For though no terrible thing did fear them; yet being scared with beasts that passed by, and hissing of serpents, (10) They died for fear, denying that they saw the air, which could of no side be avoided.
Greek: καὶ γὰρ εἰ µηδὲν αὐτοὺς ταραχῶδες ἐφόβει, κνωδάλων παρόδοις καὶ ἑρπετῶν συριγµοῖς ἐκσεσοβηµένοι διώλλυντο ἔντροµοι καὶ τὸν µηδαµόθεν φευκτὸν ἀέρα προσιδεῖν ἀρνούµενοι.
Coptic: ενε μν λααυ γαρ νhοτε θρsο μμοου αλλα νευβωλ εβολ hα πεστωτ hιτν hενhροου νθηριον hι jατfε ευσωρ εβολ hι τοοτου εhναυ cε αν εcωsτ επαηρ παι ετε μν hιη νρβολ εροf νσα λααυ νσα.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:13
English: And the expectation from within, being less, counteth the ignorance more than the cause which bringeth the torment.
Greek: ἔνδοθεν δὲ οὖσα ἥττων ἡ προσδοκία πλείονα λογίζεται τὴν ἄγνοιαν τῆς παρεχούσης τὴν βάσανον αἰτίας.
Coptic: θελπισ δε εασcββε hιhουν sασμκαh νhητ ντμντατσοουν εhου ετετια ετειρε νασ ντβασανοσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:14
English: But they sleeping the same sleep that night, which was indeed intolerable, and which came upon them out of the bottoms of inevitable hell,
Greek: οἱ δὲ τὴν ἀδύνατον ὄντως νύκτα καὶ ἐξ ἀδυνάτου ᾅδου µυχῶν ἐπελθοῦσαν τὸν αὐτὸν ὕπνον κοιµώµενοι
Coptic: ντοου hωου ον ευνκοτκ hν tουsη ουωτ ετναsτ ντασει εhραι hν μμα νκακε ναμντε
Wisdom of Solomon 17:15
English: Were partly vexed with monstrous apparitions, and partly fainted, their heart failing them: for a sudden fear, and not looked for, came upon them.
Greek: τὰ µὲν τέρασιν ἠλαύνοντο φαντασµάτων, τὰ δὲ τῆς ψυχῆς παρελύοντο προδοσίᾳ· αἰφνίδιος γὰρ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἀπροσδόκητος φόβος ἐπεχύθη.
Coptic: παι μεν εfsτορτρ μμοου hιτν νhρβ ετουναυ εροου παι δε νευβωλ εβολ hιτμ πcββε ντεψυχη hν ουsσνε ασει εhραι εjωου νcι θοτε ενσεcωsτ hητσ αν.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:16
English: So then whosoever there fell down was straitly kept, shut up in a prison without iron bars,
Greek: εἶθ’ οὕτως, ὃς δή ποτ’ οὖν ἦν ἐκεῖ καταπίπτων, ἐφρουρεῖτο εἰς τὴν ἀσίδηρον εἱρκτὴν κατακλεισθείς·
Coptic: ουον δε νιμ ετνατωμτ επμα ετμμαυ νευαρεh εροf πε εfοτπ ευεsτεκο νκακε.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:17
English: For whether he were husbandman, or shepherd, or a labourer in the field, he was overtaken, and endured that necessity, which could not be avoided: for they were all bound with one chain of darkness.
Greek: εἴ τε γὰρ γεωργὸς ἦν τις ἢ ποιµὴν ἢ τῶν κατ’ ἐρηµίαν ἐργάτης µόχθων, προληµφθεὶς τὴν δυσάλυκτον ἔµενεν ἀνάγκην, µιᾷ γὰρ ἁλύσει σκότους πάντες ἐδέθησαν·
Coptic: ειτε ουοει πε η ουsωσ η ουεργατησ εfhν σωsε εα ταναγκη ετμμαυ ταhοf μπfρβολ εροσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:20
English: For the whole world shined with clear light, and none were hindered in their labour:
Greek: ὅλος γὰρ ὁ κόσµος λαµπρῷ κατελάµπετο φωτὶ καὶ ἀνεµποδίστοις συνείχετο ἔργοις·
Coptic: πκοσμοσ γαρ τηρf εfsοοπ hν ουοειν εfτββηυ αυω νεfσιτε εhραι hν νεhβηυε ετμην εβολ.
Wisdom of Solomon 17:21
English: Over them only was spread an heavy night, an image of that darkness which should afterward receive them: but yet were they unto themselves more grievous than the darkness.
Greek: µόνοις δὲ ἐκείνοις ἐπετέτατο βαρεῖα νὺξ εἰκὼν τοῦ µέλλοντος αὐτοὺς διαδέχεσθαι σκότους, ἑαυτοῖς δὲ ἦσαν βαρύτεροι σκότους.
Coptic: νη δε μαυααυ νευhοτπ εhουν hν τευsη ετhορs ντοσ τε θικων μπκακε ετουναβωκ εροf ντοου δε νευhορs εροου μαυααυ εhου επκακε.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:1
English: Nevertheless thy saints had a very great light, whose voice they hearing, and not seeing their shape, because they also had not suffered the same things, they counted them happy.
Greek: Τοῖς δὲ ὁσίοις σου µέγιστον ἦν φῶς· ὧν φωνὴν µὲν ἀκούοντες µορφὴν δὲ οὐχ ὁρῶντες, ὅτι µὲν οὐ κἀκεῖνοι ἐπεπόνθεισαν, ἐµακάριζον,
Coptic: νεκπετουααβ δε ντοου νερε ουνοc νουοειν πε sοοπ ναυ ερε νη μεν σωτμ ευσμη ενσεναυ δε εροου αν νευμακαριζε μμοου jε μπουβωκ hν νειhισε
Wisdom of Solomon 18:3
English: Instead whereof thou gavest them a burning pillar of fire, both to be a guide of the unknown journey, and an harmless sun to entertain them honourably.
Greek: ἀνθ’ ὧν πυριφλεγῆ στῦλον ὁδηγὸν µὲν ἀγνώστου ὁδοιπορίας, ἥλιον δὲ ἀβλαβῆ φιλοτίµου ξενιτείας παρέσχες.
Coptic: επμα νναι ακτννοου ναυ νουστυλοσ νκωhτ ετσαβο μμοου ετεhιη ετε νσεσοουν μμοσ αν μν ουρη εμεfρωκh αν εfjι μοειτ hητου μπεhοου.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:5
English: And when they had determined to slay the babes of the saints, one child being cast forth, and saved, to reprove them, thou tookest away the multitude of their children, and destroyedst them altogether in a mighty water.
Greek: Βουλευσαµένους δ’ αὐτοὺς τὰ τῶν ὁσίων ἀποκτεῖναι νήπια καὶ ἑνὸς ἐκτεθέντος τέκνου καὶ σωθέντος εἰς ἔλεγχον τὸ αὐτῶν ἀφείλω πλῆθος τέκνων καὶ ὁµοθυµαδὸν ἀπώλεσας ἐν ὕδατι σφοδρῷ.
Coptic: ντερουjι sοjνε γαρ εμουουτ ννsηρε ννεκπετουααβ εαυνουjε εβολ νουsηρε εfουααβ αυω αfουjαι επευjπιο δε ακfι πμηηsε ννευsηρε αυω ακfοτου εβολ hι ουσοπ hν ουμοου εναsωf.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:6
English: Of that night were our fathers certified afore, that assuredly knowing unto what oaths they had given credence, they might afterwards be of good cheer.
Greek: ἐκείνη ἡ νὺξ προεγνώσθη πατράσιν ἡµῶν, ἵνα ἀσφαλῶς εἰδότες οἷς ἐπίστευσαν ὅρκοις ἐπευθυµήσωσιν.
Coptic: τευsη ετμμαυ ακταμε νενειοτε εροσ jεκασ ευεειμε εναναυs νσεναυ jε νταυναhτε εροκ νσετωκ νhητ
Wisdom of Solomon 18:10

Coptic: πεhροου hωου ννjαjε νεfωs εβολ εfsοβε αυω ουσμη νριμε ευτοειτ ενευsηρε.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:11
English: The master and the servant were punished after one manner; and like as the king, so suffered the common person.
Greek: ὁµοίᾳ δὲ δίκῃ δοῦλος ἅµα δεσπότῃ κολασθεὶς καὶ δηµότης βασιλεῖ τὰ αὐτὰ πάσχων,
Coptic: ουhμhαλ δε μν πεfjοεισ ευκολαζε μμοου hμ πιhαπ νουωτ ουhηκε μν ουρρο ευsωπ ννιhισε ουωτ.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:12
English: So they all together had innumerable dead with one kind of death; neither were the living sufficient to bury them: for in one moment the noblest offspring of them was destroyed.
Greek: ὁµοθυµαδὸν δὲ πάντες ἐν ἑνὶ ὀνόµατι θανάτου νεκροὺς εἶχον ἀναριθµήτους· οὐδὲ γὰρ πρὸς τὸ θάψαι οἱ ζῶντες ἦσαν ἱκανοί, ἐπεὶ πρὸς µίαν ῥοπὴν ἡ ἐντιµοτέρα γένεσις αὐτῶν διέφθαρτο.
Coptic: ντοου τηρου hι ουσοπ ευhμ πιμου νουωτ νε μν ηπε ννευρεfμοουτ νετονh γαρ νευρωsε αν πε ετωμσ ννετμοουτ ετβε jε πευjπο ετταειηυ αfτακο hν ουsπ νsωπ.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:13
English: For whereas they would not believe any thing by reason of the enchantments; upon the destruction of the firstborn, they acknowledged this people to be the sons of God.
Greek: πάντα γὰρ ἀπιστοῦντες διὰ τὰς φαρµακείας ἐπὶ τῷ τῶν πρωτοτόκων ὀλέθρῳ ὡµολόγησαν θεοῦ υἱὸν λαὸν εἶναι.
Coptic: ευο γαρ νατναhτε εhωβ νιμ ετβε νευμντρεfρπαhρε hμ πτρε νευsρπ μμισε τακο αυhομολογει jε ουsηρε ντε πνουτε πε πειλαοσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:16
English: And brought thine unfeigned commandment as a sharp sword, and standing up filled all things with death; and it touched the heaven, but it stood upon the earth.
Greek: καὶ στὰς ἐπλήρωσεν τὰ πάντα θανάτου καὶ οὐρανοῦ µὲν ἥπτετο, βεβήκει δ’ ἐπὶ γῆς.
Coptic: ευν ουσηfε ντοοτf εστημ hμ πεκουεhσαhνε αjν hυποκρινε αfαhε ρατf αfμεh μα νιμ μμου εfjωh ετπε ερε ρατf hιjμ πκαh.

Greek: καὶ ἄMος ἀλλαχῇ ῥιφεὶς ἡµίθνητος δι’ ἣν ἔθνῃσκον αἰτίαν ἐνεφάνιζεν·
Coptic: ερε πουα πουα νηj νσα ουσα εfο μπsμου ευταμο μμοου ετλοειcε ετουμου ετβητσ.
Wisdom of Solomon 18:19
English: For the dreams that troubled them did foreshew this, lest they should perish, and not know why they were afflicted.
Greek: οἱ γὰρ ὄνειροι θορυβήσαντες αὐτοὺς τοῦτο προεµήνυσαν, ἵνα µὴ ἀγνοοῦντες δι’ ὃ κακῶς πάσχουσιν ἀπόλωνται.
Coptic: ρρασου γαρ ετsτορτρ μμοου νευουωνh ναυ εβολ μπαι jε νευρ ατσοουν μπετουsωπ ννειπεθοου ετβητf νσεfωτε εβολ τηρου.
