Ελεγξον φίλον, μήποτε οὐκ ἐποίησε, καὶ εἴ τι ἐποίησε, μήποτε προσθῇ. 14
ἔλεγξον τὸν πλησίον, μήποτε οὐκ εἶπε, καὶ εἰ εἴρηκεν, ἵνα μὴ δευτερώσῃ.
15 ἔλεγξον φίλον, πολλάκις γὰρ γίνεται διαβολή, καὶ μὴ παντὶ λόγῳ
πίστευε. 16 ἔστιν ὀλισθαίνων καὶ οὐκ ἀπὸ ψυχῆς, καὶ τίς οὐχ ἡμάρτησεν ἐν
τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτοῦ; 17 ἔλεγξον τὸν πλησίον σου πρὶν ἢ ἀπειλῆσαι, καὶ δὸς
τόπον νόμῳ ῾Υψίστου. [γινόμενος ἄμηνις. 18 φόβος Κυρίου ἀρχὴ προσλήψεως,
σοφία δὲ παρ’ αὐτοῦ ἀγάπησιν περιποιεῖ. 19 γνῶσις ἐντολῶν Κυρίου
παιδεία ζωῆς, οἱ δὲ ποιοῦντες τὰ ἀρεστὰ αὐτῷ ἀθανασίας δένδρον
καρποῦνται].
20 Πᾶσα σοφία φόβος Κυρίου, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ σοφίᾳ ποίησις νόμου· [καὶ
γνῶσις τῆς παντοδυναμίας αὐτοῦ.
I looked into these verses when doing research on Hebrews 1:3.

ReplyDeleteSorry, but Firefox does not like that page
ReplyDeleteThat's strange, it works on chrome.

Okay, I accessed the page with my phone which uses Chrome; I got a quote from Publilius Syrus, a lover of sententiae (aphorisms). :0
ReplyDeleteYep, see my comment below, but thanks. This happens a lot with Firefox, the main browser that I use. It does not like sites that are not "secure."
ReplyDeleteI have Sophos Home to tell me that instead.
