Besedilo
Popotniki in krokar
Some men were on their way to attend to a certain matter when they encountered a raven blind in one eye. They paused, and one of them advised turning back, saying that this was what the omen signified. But another spoke up: “How can this bird foretell our future when it could not even foresee the loss of its own eye and guard against it?” So too, those who lack sound judgment in their own affairs are unfit to advise their neighbors.

Πορευομένοις τισὶν ἐπὶ πρᾶξίν τινα κόραξ ὑπήντησεν τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν τὸν ἕτερον πεπηρωμένος. Ἐπιστραφέντων δὲ αὐτῶν, καί τινος ὑποστρέψαι παραινοῦντος, τοῦτο (γὰρ) σημαίνειν τὸν οἰωνὸν, ἕτερος ὑποτυχὼν εἶπεν· ,,καὶ πῶς οὗτος ἡμῖν δύναται τὰ μέλλοντα μαντεύεσθαι, ὃς οὐδὲ τὴν ἰδίαν πήρωσιν προείδετο, ἵνα φυλάξηται;“
Οὕτω καὶ οἱ ἐν τοῖς οἰκείοις πράγμασι τὸ ἄβουλον κεκτημένοι καὶ εἰς τὰς τῶν πέλας συμβουλίας ἀδόκιμοι.
