O izvirniku
Ezopove basni
Kratke basni, kjer živali v nekaj potezah razkrijejo človeške slabosti. Bralni jezik je English, izvirnik pa prihaja iz vira Ezopove basni v jeziku Ancient Greek.
Besedilo
Pastir in morje
A shepherd tending his flock by the shore saw how calm the sea was and longed to set sail as a merchant. So he sold his sheep, bought a cargo of dates, and put out to sea. But a violent storm arose, and with his ship in danger of sinking, he threw his entire cargo overboard and barely made it to safety in the empty vessel. Many days later, a passerby was admiring the stillness of the sea, which happened to be calm again. The shepherd spoke up: “She wants more dates, it seems, and that is why she looks so peaceful.” The fable shows that people learn from their misfortunes.

Ποιμὴν, ἐν παραθαλασσίῳ τόπῳ ποίμνιον νέμων, ἑωρακὼς γαληνιῶσαν τὴν θάλατταν, ἐπεθύμησε πλεῦσαι πρὸς ἐμπορίαν. Ἀπεμπολήσας οὖν τὰ πρόβατα καὶ φοινίκων βαλάνους πριάμενος, ἀνήχθη. Χειμῶνος δὲ σφοδροῦ γενομένου, καὶ τῆς νεὼς κινδυνευούσης βαπτίζεσθαι, πάντα τὸν φόρτον ἐκβαλὼν εἰς τὴν θάλατταν, μόλις κενῇ τῇ νηιῒ διεσώθη. Μετὰ δʼ ἡμέρας οὐκ ὀλίγας παριόντος τινὸς, καὶ τῆς θαλάττης (ἔτυχε γὰρ αὕτη γαληνιῶσα) τὴν ἠρεμίαν θαυμάζοντος, ὑπολαβὼν οὗτος εἶπε· ,,φοινίκων αὖθις, ὡς ἔοικεν, ἐπιθυμεῖ, καὶ διὰ τοῦτο φαίνεται ἡσυχάζουσα.“
Ὁ μῦθος δηλοῖ, ὅτι τὰ παθήματα τοῖς ἀνθρώποις μαθήματα γίνεται.
