but the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own morsel, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.

But the poor man had only one little she-lamb, which he had got and taken care of: from its birth it had been with him like one of his children; his meat was its food, and from his cup it took its drink, resting in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.

ο δε πτωχος δεν ειχεν αλλο, ειμη μιαν μικραν αμναδα, την οποιαν ηγορασε και εθρεψε· και εμεγαλωσε μετ' αυτου και μετα των τεκνων αυτου ομου· απο του αρτου αυτου ετρωγε, και απο του ποτηριου αυτου επινε, και εν τω κολπω αυτου εκοιματο, και ητο εις αυτον ως θυγατηρ.
