BrLXX Μωρὸς ἐρεῖ, οὐχ ὑπάρχει μοι φίλος, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι χάρις τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς μου· οἱ ἔσθοντες τὸν ἄρτον μου, φαῦλοι γλώσσῃ.
(Mōros erei, ouⱪ huparⱪei moi filos, kai ouk esti ⱪaris tois agathois mou; hoi esthontes ton arton mou, fauloi glōssaʸ. )

BrTr The fool saith, I have no friends, I have no thank for all my good deeds, and they that eat my bread speak evil of me.

WEBBE The fool will say, “I have no friend,
⇔ and I have no thanks for my good deeds.
⇔ Those who eat my bread have an evil tongue.”

KJB-1611 The foole saith, I haue no friends, I haue no thanke for all my good deeds: and they that eate my bread speake euill of me.
(The foole saith, I have no friends, I have no thank for all my good deads: and they that eat my bread speak evil of me.)
