Treat this as a gap candidate, not as proof that no translation exists; the evidence names every source checked.
Why this is in the register
HOLLIS Primo (Harvard) search 'Scholies aux Proverbes Evagrius' returns the Sources chretiennes 340 (ed. P. Gehin; French translation) and no English-language edition; a HOLLIS search for 'Evagrius Proverbs scholia English' returns 0 records (checked 2026-11-13). R. Sinkewicz, Evagrius of Pontus: The Greek Ascetic Corpus (Oxford, 2003) translates only the ascetic works; its HOLLIS table of contents lists no scholia. ANF and NPNF contain no work of Evagrius Ponticus (NPNF series 2 vol. 11 carries John Cassian only).
The Greek text is edited with a modern-language (French) translation in Sources chretiennes 340 (ed. P. Gehin; French translation); no complete English translation of Evagrius's biblical scholia was located.
Existing translations recorded

Scanned witnesses
Scan search: restricted scan — 1 candidate(s). No open scan and no Migne text: PG 17 (tomus where Evagrian/Origenian material would sit) was downloaded and searched - 30 'Evagri' hits, all Latin apparatus mentions, no Scholia in Proverbia text. The Greek of the scholia is Géhin's SC 340, in copyright; the IA copy is lending-only, so nothing can be ingested without the printed volume. Rejected lead, kept to avoid re-checking: IA item 'gnomica00moscgoog' (Gnomica, 1892; item page HTTP 200) is the only hit for 'Evagrii Pontici' but is a gnomologium, not the Proverbs scholia.
