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
Zevs in želva
When Zeus celebrated his wedding, he invited all the animals to a feast. Only the tortoise failed to appear, and, puzzled by her absence, he asked her the next day, “Why were you alone absent from the feast?” She replied, “One’s own dear home is the best home.” Angered by her answer, Zeus condemned her to carry her home about with her wherever she went. So, too, many people would rather live simply in their own homes than luxuriously in the homes of others.

Ζεὺς, γάμους τελῶν, συγκαλεσάμενος τὰ ζῶα πάντα εἱστία. Μόνης δὲ χελώνης ὑστερησάσης, διαπορῶν τὴν αἰτίαν τῇ ὑστεραίᾳ ἐπυνθάνετο αὐτῆς· ,,διὰ τί μόνη ἐπὶ τὸ δεῖπνον οὐκ ἦλθες;“ Τῆς δὲ εἰπούσης ,,φίλος οἶκος ἄριστος οἶκος,“ ἀγανακτήσας κατʼ αὐτῆς παρεσκεύασεν αὐτὴν τὸν οἶκον αὐτὸν βαστάζουσαν περιφέρειν.“
Οὕτω πολλοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων αἱροῦνται λιτῶς οἰ- κεῖν ἢ παρʼ ἄλλοις πολυτελῶς διαιτᾶσθαι.
