τὸν φιλέοντʼ ἐπὶ δαῖτα καλεῖν, τὸν δʼ ἐχθρὸν ἐᾶσαι·Destroy him, bringing down his house, and there


τὸν δὲ μάλιστα καλεῖν, ὅς τις σέθεν ἐγγύθι ναίει·In record time, goes his prosperity.


εἰ γάρ τοι καὶ χρῆμʼ ἐγχώριον ἄλλο γένηταιLikewise, if someone brings great ills to bear


γείτονες ἄζωστοι ἔκιον, ζώσαντο δὲ πηοί.On guest or suppliant or, by wrong beguiled


πῆμα κακὸς γείτων, ὅσσον τʼ ἀγαθὸς μέγʼ ὄνειαρ.Lies with his brother’s wife or sinfully


ἔμμορέ τοι τιμῆς, ὅς τʼ ἔμμορε γείτονος ἐσθλοῦ.Brings harm upon a little orphan child


οὐδʼ ἂν βοῦς ἀπόλοιτʼ, εἰ μὴ γείτων κακὸς εἴη.Or else insults with harsh contumely


εὖ μὲν μετρεῖσθαι παρὰ γείτονος, εὖ δʼ ἀποδοῦναιHis aged father, thus provoking Zeu


αὐτῷ τῷ μέτρῳ, καὶ λώιον, αἴ κε δύνηαιAnd paying dearly for his sins. But you


ὡς ἂν χρηίζων καὶ ἐς ὕστερον ἄρκιον εὕρῃς.Must keep your foolish heart from such abuse


μὴ κακὰ κερδαίνειν· κακὰ κέρδεα ἶσʼ ἀάτῃσιν.And do your best to give the gods their due
