Many waters cannot quench love, Neither can floods drown it: If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, He would utterly be contemned.

Much water may not put out love, or the deep waters overcome it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would be judged a price not great enough.

Υδατα πολλα δεν δυνανται να σβεσωσι την αγαπην, ουδε ποταμοι δυνανται να πνιξωσιν αυτην· εαν τις δωση παντα τα υπαρχοντα του οικου αυτου δια την αγαπην, παντελως θελουσι καταφρονησει αυτα.

Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
