The words of the wise are as goads; and as nails well fastened are the words of the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd.

The words of the wise are pointed, and sayings grouped together are like nails fixed with a hammer; they are given by one guide.

Οι λογοι των σοφων ειναι ως βουκεντρα και ως καρφια εμπεπηγμενα υπο των διδασκαλων των συναθροισαντων αυτους· εδοθησαν δε παρα του αυτου ποιμενος.

The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd.
