Pois . por esses motivos e para ver terras , Sólon saiu do seu país e viajou ao Egito para visitar Amásis e também a Sardis visitar Creso . Tendo chegado , foi recebido por Creso em seu palácio . Depois , no terceiro ou quarto dia , ao comando de Creso , os criados levaram Sólon para ver os tesouros demonstrando como tudo era grandioso e luxuoso . E após Sólon ter visto e analisado tudo , quando encontrou o momento oportuno , Creso a ele perguntou : " Hóspede ateniense , de fato , a mim chegaram muitos relatos a teu respeito , por conta de suas viagens e seu conhecimento , assim como por teu amor a sabedoria e por conhecer muitas terras , dada a tua curiosidade . Agora veio a mim o desejo de te perguntar se já viste o homem mais afortunado de todos " . Perguntou isso esperando ser ele o homem mais afortunado . Mas Sólon , sem bajular ninguém e sendo sincero respondeu : " O ateniense Télon , ó Rei . " Surpreso com a resposta , Creso perguntou , com interesse : " Por que julgas Télon ser o mais afortunado ? " Sólon disse : " Sendo de uma cidade rica , por um lado , teve filhos belos e bons e viu que estes tiveram seus filhos e todos chegaram a maioridade e , por outro , sua vida sendo próspera , na medida de nossas possibilidades , o final da sua vida foi brilhante . Ocorrendo a batalha dos atenienses contra os nativos de Elêusis , correu em auxílio e provocou a fuga dos inimigos e morreu de forma gloriosa . Os atenienses o enterraram com exéquias públicas onde ele tombou e tributaram a ele grandes honras . "

So for that reason , and to see the world , Solon went to visit Amasis in Egypt and then to Croesus in Sardis . When he got there , Croesus entertained him in the palace , and on the third or fourth day Croesus told his attendants to show Solon around his treasures , and they pointed out all those things that were great and blest . After Solon had seen everything and had thought about it , Croesus found the opportunity to say , " My Athenian guest , we have heard a lot about you because of your wisdom and of your wanderings , how as one who loves learning you have traveled much of the world for the sake of seeing it , so now I desire to ask you who is the most fortunate man you have seen . " Croesus asked this question believing that he was the most fortunate of men , but Solon , offering no flattery but keeping to the truth , said , " O King , it is Tellus the Athenian . " Croesus was amazed at what he had said and replied sharply , " In what way do you judge Tellus to be the most fortunate ? " Solon said , " Tellus was from a prosperous city , and his children were good and noble . He saw children born to them all , and all of these survived . His life was prosperous by our standards , and his death was most glorious : when the Athenians were fighting their neighbors in Eleusis , he came to help , routed the enemy , and died very finely . The Athenians buried him at public expense on the spot where he fell and gave him much honor "

1 Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ Λόγος , καὶ ὁ Λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν Θεόν , καὶ Θεὸς ἦν ὁ Λόγος .
2 Οὗτος ἦν ἐν ἀρχῇ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν .
3 πάντα δι’ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο , καὶ χωρὶς αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο οὐδὲ ἕν ὃ γέγονεν .
4 ἐν αὐτῷ ζωὴ ἦν , καὶ ἡ ζωὴ ἦν τὸ φῶς τῶν ἀνθρώπων .
5 καὶ τὸ φῶς ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ φαίνει , καὶ ἡ σκοτία αὐτὸ οὐ κατέλαβεν .
6 Ἐγένετο ἄνθρωπος , ἀπεσταλμένος παρὰ Θεοῦ , ὄνομα αὐτῷ Ἰωάννης* ·
7 οὗτος ἦλθεν εἰς μαρτυρίαν , ἵνα μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ φωτός , ἵνα πάντες πιστεύσωσιν δι’ αὐτοῦ .
8 οὐκ ἦν ἐκεῖνος τὸ φῶς , ἀλλ’ ἵνα μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ φωτός .
9 Ἦν τὸ φῶς τὸ ἀληθινὸν , ὃ φωτίζει πάντα ἄνθρωπον , ἐρχόμενον εἰς τὸν κόσμον .
10 ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ἦν , καὶ ὁ κόσμος δι’ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο , καὶ ὁ κόσμος αὐτὸν οὐκ ἔγνω .

1 No princípio era o Verbo , e o Verbo estava com Deus , e o Verbo era Deus .
2 Ele estava no princípio com Deus .
3 Todas as coisas foram feitas por intermédio dele , e sem ele nada do que foi feito se fez .
4 Nele estava a vida , e a vida era a luz dos homens ;
5 a luz resplandece nas trevas , e as trevas não prevaleceram contra ela .
6 Houve um homem enviado de Deus , cujo nome era João .
7 Este veio como testemunha , a fim de dar testemunho da luz , para que todos cressem por meio dele .
8 Ele não era a luz , mas veio para dar testemunho da luz .
9 Pois a verdadeira luz , que alumia a todo homem , estava chegando ao mundo .
10 Estava ele no mundo , e o mundo foi feito por intermédio dele , e o mundo não o conheceu .

1 In the beginning was the Word , and the Word was with God , and the Word was God .
2 The same was in the beginning with God .
3 All things were made by him ; and without him was not any thing made that was made .
4 In him was life ; and the life was the light of men .
5 And the light shineth in darkness ; and the darkness comprehended it not .
6 There was a man sent from God , whose name was John .
7 The same came for a witness , to bear witness of the Light , that all men through him might believe .
8 He was not that Light , but was sent to bear witness of that Light .
9 That was the true Light , which lighteth every man that cometh into the world .
10 He was in the world , and the world was made by him , and the world knew him not .

11 Veio para o que era seu , e os seus não o receberam .
12 Mas , a todos quantos o receberam , aos que crêem no seu nome , deu-lhes o poder de se tornarem filhos de Deus ;
13 os quais não nasceram do sangue , nem da vontade da carne , nem da vontade do varão , mas de Deus .
14 E o Verbo se fez carne , e habitou entre nós , cheio de graça e de verdade ; e vimos a sua glória , como a glória do unigênito do Pai .
15 João deu testemunho dele , e clamou , dizendo : Este é aquele de quem eu disse : O que vem depois de mim , passou adiante de mim ; porque antes de mim ele já existia .
16 Pois todos nós recebemos da sua plenitude , e graça sobre graça .
17 Porque a lei foi dada por meio de Moisés ; a graça e a verdade vieram por Jesus Cristo .
18 Ninguém jamais viu a Deus . O Deus unigênito , que está no seio do Pai , esse o deu a conhecer .
19 E este foi o testemunho de João , quando os judeus lhe enviaram de Jerusalém sacerdotes e levitas para que lhe perguntassem : Quem és tu ?
20 Ele , pois , confessou e não negou ; sim , confessou : Eu não sou o Cristo .

11 εἰς τὰ ἴδια ἦλθεν , καὶ οἱ ἴδιοι αὐτὸν οὐ παρέλαβον .
12 ὅσοι δὲ ἔλαβον αὐτόν , ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν τέκνα Θεοῦ γενέσθαι , τοῖς πιστεύουσιν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ,
13 οἳ οὐκ ἐξ αἱμάτων οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος σαρκὸς οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος ἀνδρὸς ἀλλ’ ἐκ Θεοῦ ἐγεννήθησαν .
14 Καὶ ὁ Λόγος σὰρξ ἐγένετο καὶ ἐσκήνωσεν ἐν ἡμῖν , καὶ ἐθεασάμεθα τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ , δόξαν ὡς μονογενοῦς παρὰ Πατρός , πλήρης χάριτος καὶ ἀληθείας .
15 Ἰωάννης* μαρτυρεῖ περὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ κέκραγεν λέγων Οὗτος ἦν ὃν εἶπον Ὁ ὀπίσω μου ἐρχόμενος ἔμπροσθέν μου γέγονεν , ὅτι πρῶτός μου ἦν .
16 ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ πληρώματος αὐτοῦ ἡμεῖς πάντες ἐλάβομεν , καὶ χάριν ἀντὶ χάριτος ·
17 ὅτι ὁ νόμος διὰ Μωϋσέως ἐδόθη , ἡ χάρις καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐγένετο .
18 Θεὸν οὐδεὶς ἑώρακεν πώποτε · μονογενὴς Θεὸς ὁ ὢν εἰς τὸν κόλπον τοῦ Πατρὸς , ἐκεῖνος ἐξηγήσατο .
19 Καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ μαρτυρία τοῦ Ἰωάννου* ὅτε ἀπέστειλαν πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι ἐξ Ἱεροσολύμων ἱερεῖς καὶ Λευίτας* ἵνα ἐρωτήσωσιν αὐτόν Σὺ τίς εἶ ;
20 καὶ ὡμολόγησεν καὶ οὐκ ἠρνήσατο , καὶ ὡμολόγησεν ὅτι Ἐγὼ οὐκ εἰμὶ ὁ Χριστός .

11 He came unto his own , and his own received him not .
12 But as many as received him , to them gave he power to become the sons of God , even to them that believe on his name :
13 Which were born , not of blood , nor of the will of the flesh , nor of the will of man , but of God .
14 And the Word was made flesh , and dwelt among us , ( and we beheld his glory , the glory as of the only begotten of the Father , ) full of grace and truth .
15 John bare witness of him , and cried , saying , This was he of whom I spake , He that cometh after me is preferred before me : for he was before me .
16 And of his fulness have all we received , and grace for grace .
17 For the law was given by Moses , but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ .
18 No man hath seen God at any time , the only begotten Son , which is in the bosom of the Father , he hath declared him .
19 And this is the record of John , when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him , Who art thou ?
20 And he confessed , and denied not ; but confessed , I am not the Christ .

δύο ἀδελφαὶ ἐκ τῆς κώμης εἰς τῆν ὕλην ἔβαινον καὶ ἐν τῇ ὕλῃ , ἐγγὺς τῆς κρήνης , κόρην εὑρίσκουσι καὶ λέγουσι · " τίς εἶ; " ἡ δέ · " ἡ ἀρετή . " - " ἀλλὰ διά τι μένεις ἐν τῇ ἐρημίᾳ; " - " οὐδεὶς ἔτι τὴν ἀρετὴν θεραπεύει · διό φεύγω τὴν κώμην καὶ μένω ἐν τῇ ὕλῃ . "

Duas irmãs estavam indo da aldeia para a floresta . Na floresta , perto da fonte , encontram uma moça e dizem : " Quem é você ? " Então ela diz : " A virtude . " - " Mas por que você fica na solidão ? " - " Ninguém mais cultiva a virtude ; por isso evito a aldeia e fico na floresta "

Two sisters was going from the village to the forest . In the forest , close to a fountain , they find a girl and they say : " Who are you ? " So she says : " I ' m the Goodness " " But why do you stay in the loneliness ? " " Nobody else improves the Goodness , so I avoid the village and I stay in the forest . "

15 João deu testemunho dele , e clamou , dizendo : Este é aquele de quem eu disse : O que vem depois de mim , passou adiante de mim ; porque antes de mim ele já existia .
16 Pois todos nós recebemos da sua plenitude , e graça sobre graça .
17 Porque a lei foi dada por meio de Moisés ; a graça e a verdade vieram por Jesus Cristo .
18 Ninguém jamais viu a Deus . O Deus unigênito , que está no seio do Pai , esse o deu a conhecer .
19 E este foi o testemunho de João , quando os judeus lhe enviaram de Jerusalém sacerdotes e levitas para que lhe perguntassem : Quem és tu ?
20 Ele , pois , confessou e não negou ; sim , confessou : Eu não sou o Cristo .

11 He came unto his own , and his own received him not .
12 But as many as received him , to them gave he power to become the sons of God , even to them that believe on his name :
13 Which were born , not of blood , nor of the will of the flesh , nor of the will of man , but of God .
14 And the Word was made flesh , and dwelt among us , ( and we beheld his glory , the glory as of the only begotten of the Father , ) full of grace and truth .
15 John bare witness of him , and cried , saying , This was he of whom I spake , He that cometh after me is preferred before me : for he was before me .
16 And of his fulness have all we received , and grace for grace .
17 For the law was given by Moses , but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ .
18 No man hath seen God at any time , the only begotten Son , which is in the bosom of the Father , he hath declared him .
19 And this is the record of John , when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him , Who art thou ?
20 And he confessed , and denied not ; but confessed , I am not the Christ .

" Muitos dos que me precederam neste lugar fizeram elogios ao legislador que acrescentou um discurso à cerimônia usual nestas circunstâncias , considerando justo celebrar também com palavras os mortos na guerra em seus funerais . A mim , todavia , ter-me-ia parecido suficiente , tratando-se de homens que se mostraram valorosos em atos , manifestar apenas com atos as honras que lhes prestamos - honras como as que hoje presenciastes nesta cerimônia fúnebre oficial - em vez de deixar o reconhecimento do valor de tantos homens na dependência do maior ou menor talento oratório de um só homem . É realmente difícil falar com propriedade numa ocasião em que não é possível aquilatar a credibilidade das palavras do orador . O ouvinte bem informado e disposto favoravelmente pensará talvez que não foi feita a devida justiça em face de seus próprios desejos e de seu conhecimento dos fatos , enquanto outro menos informado , ouvindo falar de um feito além de sua própria capacidade , será levado pela inveja a pensar em algum exagero . De fato , elogios a outras pessoas são toleráveis somente até onde cada um se julga capaz de realizar qualquer dos atos cuja menção está ouvindo ; quando vão além disto , provocam a inveja , e com ela a incredulidade . Seja como for , já que nossos antepassados julgaram boa esta prática também devo obedecer à lei , e farei o possível para corresponder à expectativa e às opiniões de cada um de vós .

‘Most of those who havespoken on this occasion in thepast have praised the man who added this speech to the traditional ceremony , regarding it a fitting public tribute at the burial of our war dead . To me , however , it would seem sufficient that when men have proved their worth in action we should also honour them with action – as indeed you see us do today in the provision of this state funeral . Otherwise we risk the good name of many on the persuasive powers of one man , who may speak well or badly . It is difficult for a speaker to strike the right balance when there is not even any firm agreement between different perceptions of the truth . The listener who is close to these events and a friend of the dead may perhaps think that the presentation falls short of what he wants to hear and knows to be the case , while a stranger to the situation may suspect some exaggeration , envious if he hears of feats beyond his own abilities . After all , we can only bear to hear words of praise for others as long as we can each imagine ourselves capable of doing something similar ; anything beyond this prompts resentment , and then actual disbelief . However , since our forebears deemed this the right and proper practice , I too must follow the tradition and try to meet your different wishes and expectations as best I can .

ἰδὼν δὲ τοῦτο καὶ ὑπερθέμενος τοῖσι ὀνειροπόλοισι , μετεπέμψατο ἐκ τῶν Περσέων τὴν θυγατέρα ἐπίτεκα ἐοῦσαν , ἀπικομένην δὲ ἐφύλασσε βουλόμενος τὸ γενόμενον ἐξ αὐτῆς διαφθεῖραι : ἐκ γάρ οἱ τῆς ὄψιος οἱ τῶν Μάγων ὀνειροπόλοι ἐσήμαινον ὅτι μέλλοι ὁ τῆς θυγατρὸς αὐτοῦ γόνος βασιλεύσειν ἀντὶ ἐκείνου .

Tendo [ Astíages ] visto isso em sonho e confiado aos onirópolos , mandou buscar dos persas a filha que estava prestes a dar à luz , e quando ela chegou , [ ele ] montou guarda , desejando aniquilar aquele que dela viria a nascer ; pois , a partir da visão , os onirópolos dentre os Magos apontavam que o filho de sua filha estava fadado a reinar em seu lugar .

Having seen this vision , and communicated it to the interpreters of dreams , he sent to the Persians for his daughter , who was about to give birth , and when she arrived kept her guarded , meaning to kill whatever child she bore : for the interpreters declared that the meaning of his dream was that his daughter ' s offspring would rule in his place .
