O izvirniku

Besedilo
Konj in konjar
A groom stole and sold his horse’s barley, yet rubbed him down and combed him every day. The horse said, “If you truly want me to look fine, do not sell the barley that feeds me.” So it is that the greedy beguile the poor with persuasive words and flattery, while robbing them even of life’s necessities.

Κριθὴν τὴν τοῦ ἵππου ἱπποκόμος κλέπτων καὶ πωλῶν, τὸν ἵππον ἔτριβε καὶ ἐκτένιζε πάσας ἡμέρας. Ἔφη δὲ ὁ ἵππος· „εἰ θέλεις ἀληθῶς καλὸν εἶναί με, τὴν κριθὴν τὴν τρέφουσαν μὴ πώλει.“
Ὅτι οἱ πλεονέκται τοῖς πιθανοῖς λόγοις καὶ ταῖς κολακείαις τοὺς πένητας δελεάζονται, καὶ ἀποστεροῦσιν αὐτοὺς καὶ τῆς ἀναγκαίας χρείας.
