ἐν πόντῳ Σώδαμος ὁ Κρὴς θάνεν, ᾧ φίλα, Νηρεῦ,
δίκτυα καὶ τὸ σὸν ἦν κεῖνο σύνηθες ὕδωρ,
ἰχθυβολεὺς ὁ περισσὸς ἐν ἀνδράσιν. ἀλλὰ θάλασσα
οὔ τι διακρίνει χείματος οὐδ᾽ ἁλιεῖς.

— Paton edition

Dans les flots a péri Sodamos le Crétois, qui aimait, ô Nérée, les filets et à qui les eaux de là-bas, ton domaine, étaient familières; un pêcheur émérite. Mais par la tempête la mere ne distingue pas entre les hommes, fussent-ils des pêcheurs.

— Waltz edition

In the sea, Nereus, died Sodamus the Cretan
who loved thy nets and was at home on these thy
waters. He excelled all men in his skill as a fisher,
but the sea in a storm makes no distinction between
fishermen and others.

— Paton edition

Spensero i flutti Sodamo di Creta, che, amante di reti
e di quell'acqua ch'è il tuo regno, Nèreo,
fu pescatore fra tutti valente. Ma il mare, d'inverno,
non discerne -neppure fra chi pesca.
