ASV Byzantine Text
Beware, my child, of all whoredom, and take first a wife of the seed of thy fathers, and take not a strange wife, who is not of thy father’s tribe: for we are the sons of the prophets. Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, our fathers of old time, remember, my child, that they all took wives of their brethren, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.

Garde-toi, mon enfant, de toute fornication, et prends d'abord une femme de la race de tes pères. Ne prends pas une femme étrangère, qui ne soit pas de la tribu de ton père, car nous sommes les descendants des prophètes. Souviens-toi, mon enfant, que Noé, Abraham, Isaac et Jacob, nos pères d'autrefois, ont tous pris femme de leur parenté, et ont été bénis dans leurs enfants, et leur postérité héritera le pays.

No te cases con una mujer extranjera, que no sea de la tribu de tu papá; porque nosotros venimos de los profetas. Acuérdate, hijo mío, que Noé, Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, nuestros antepasados, se casaron con mujeres de su misma gente, y Dios los bendijo con hijos, y sus descendientes van a heredar la tierra.

Noa, Abraham, Izak, Jakov naši su oci odiskona; sjeti se, sine, da su svi oni uzeli žene među svojom braćom i da su bili blagoslovljeni u svojoj djeci, njihovo potomstvo dobit će zemlju u nasljedstvo.

SEPTUAGINTA
πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ, παιδίον, ἀπὸ πάσης πορνείας καὶ γυναῖκα πρῶτον λάβε ἀπὸ τοῦ σπέρματος τῶν πατέρων σου· μὴ λάβῃς γυναῖκα ἀλλοτρίαν, ἣ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς τοῦ πατρός σου, διότι υἱοὶ προφητῶν ἐσμεν. Νῶε, Ἁβραάμ, Ἰσαάκ, Ἰακώβ, οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος· μνήσθητι, παιδίον, ὅτι αὐτοὶ πάντες ἔλαβον γυναῖκας ἐκ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν καὶ εὐλογήθησαν ἐν τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτῶν, καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν κληρονομήσει γῆν.
