My first adventure with Jerome and co.

Parabolae Salomonis filii David regis Israhel

ad sciendam sapientiam et disciplinam

ad intellegenda verba prudentiae

et suscipiendam eruditionem doctrinae

iustitiam et iudicium et aequitatem
ut detur parvulis astutia adulescenti scientia et intellectus

audiens sapiens sapientior erit et intellegens
gubernacula possidebit

animadvertet parabolam et interpretationem

verba sapientium et enigmata eorum

timor Domini principium scientiae sapientiam
atque doctrinam stulti dispiciunt

Now. Without looking at your Bibles... you can all attempt to translate this. Even if you don't know Latin, it's pretty easy to figure out, especially the last verse.

I thought of publishing my own translation.
Maybe I'll do that later, but it's more fun this way. >_>

Until recently, I didn't know "Homo Sapiens" meant "Wise Human Being"...
