DION CHRYSOSTOME, Discours à Célènes (discours 35; traduction anglaise)

Texte grec :

[35,25] φέρε δή, τίνας ἄλλους τῶν καθ´ ἡμᾶς εὐδαίμονας ἀκούομεν; Βυζαντίους, χώραν τε ἀρίστην νεμομένους καὶ θάλατταν εὐκαρποτάτην. τῆς δὲ γῆς ἠμελήκασι διὰ τὴν ἀρετὴν τῆς θαλάττης. ἡ μὲν γὰρ διὰ μακροῦ φέρει τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῖς καὶ δεῖ λαβεῖν ἐργασαμένους, ἡ δὲ αὐτόθεν μηδὲν πονήσασιν.

Traduction française :

[35,25] Well then, what other people among the nations of our time are said to be fortunate? The people of Byzantium, who enjoy a most fertile land and a sea abounding in fruits. But they have neglected the land because of the excellence of the sea. For whereas the land produces its fruits for them only after a long interval of time and toil is required to secure them, the sea yields up its treasures at once without any labour on their part.
