So then both he that giveth his own virgin [daughter] in marriage doeth well; and he that giveth her not in marriage shall do better.

So² thenª¹ he that giveth [her] in marriageª° doethª° well;ª butª he that giveth [her]²° not² in marriageª°¹ doethª° better.ª

So² thenª¹ he that giueth her in mariage,ª° doethª° wel:ª butª he that giueth her²° not² in mariage,ª°¹ doethª° better.ª

And he then who giveth his virgin doeth well, and he who giveth not his virgin doeth better.

And therefore, he who presenteth his maiden [daughter], doeth commendably; and he who presenteth not his maiden [daughter], doeth very commendably.

ὥστε καὶ ὁ γαμίζων τὴν ἑαυτοῦ παρθένον καλῶς ποιεῖ, καὶ ὁ μὴ γαμίζων κρεῖσσον ποιήσει.

as-also and the-one marrying-to to-the-one of-self to-a-maiden unto-seemly it-doeth-unto, and the-one lest marrying-to to-superior it-shall-do-unto.
