Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Then all the commanders of the forces, along with Johanan son of Kareah, Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least to the greatest, approached
1Ο λόγος ὁ γενόμενος πρὸς Ἱερεμίαν παρὰ Κυρίου ἐν ἡμέραις Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα λέγων·
2Jeremiah the prophet and said, “May our petition come before you; pray to the LORD your God on behalf of this entire remnant. For few of us remain of the many, as you can see with your own eyes.
2βάδισον εἰς οἶκον Ἀρχαβεὶν καὶ ἄξεις αὐτοὺς εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, εἰς μίαν τῶν αὐλῶν, καὶ ποτιεῖς αὐτοὺς οἶνον.
3Pray that the LORD your God will tell us the way we should walk and the thing we should do.”
3καὶ ἐξήγαγον τὸν Ἰεζονίαν υἱὸν Ἱερεμίου υἱοῦ Χαβασὶν καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν οἰκίαν Ἀρχαβεὶν
4“I have heard you,” replied Jeremiah the prophet. “I will surely pray to the LORD your God as you request, and I will tell you everything that the LORD answers; I will not withhold a word from you.”
4καὶ εἰσήγαγον αὐτοὺς εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου εἰς τὸ παστοφόριον υἱῶν Ἀνανίου, υἱοῦ Γοδολίου ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὅ ἐστιν ἐγγὺς τοῦ οἴκου τῶν ἀρχόντων τῶν ἐπάνω τοῦ οἴκου Μαασαίου υἱοῦ Σελώμ, τοῦ φυλάσσοντος τὴν αὐλήν,
5Then they said to Jeremiah, “May the LORD be a true and faithful witness against us if we do not act upon every word that the LORD your God sends you to tell us.
5καὶ ἔδωκα κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν κεράμιον οἴνου καὶ ποτήρια καὶ εἶπα· πίετε οἶνον.
6Whether it is pleasant or unpleasant, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God to whom we are sending you, so that it may go well with us, for we will obey the voice of the LORD our God!”
6καὶ εἶπαν· οὐ μὴ πίωμεν οἶνον, ὅτι Ἰωναδὰβ υἱὸς Ρηχὰβ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν λέγων· οὐ μὴ πίετε οἶνον, ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ὑμῶν ἕως αἰῶνος.
7After ten days the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah,
7καὶ οἰκίας οὐ μὴ οἰκοδομήσητε καὶ σπέρμα οὐ μὴ σπείρητε, καὶ ἀμπελὼν οὐκ ἔσται ὑμῖν, ὅτι ἐν σκηναῖς οἰκήσετε πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὑμῶν, ὅπως ἂν ζήσητε ἡμέρας πολλὰς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἐφ' ἧς διατρίβετε ὑμεῖς ἐπ' αὐτῆς.
8and he summoned Johanan son of Kareah, all the commanders of the forces who were with him, and all the people from the least to the greatest.
8καὶ ἠκούσαμεν τῆς φωνῆς Ἰωναδὰβ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν πρὸς τὸ μὴ πιεῖν οἶνον πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἡμῶν, ἡμεῖς καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἡμῶν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ἡμῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες ἡμῶν,
9Jeremiah told them, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your petition:
9καὶ πρὸς τὸ μὴ οἰκοδομεῖν οἰκίας τοῦ κατοικεῖν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἀμπελὼν καὶ ἀγρὸς καὶ σπέρμα οὐκ ἐγένετο ἡμῖν,
10‘If you will indeed stay in this land, then I will build you up and not tear you down; I will plant you and not uproot you, for I will relent of the disaster I have brought upon you.
10καὶ ᾠκήσαμεν ἐν σκηναῖς καὶ ἠκούσαμεν καὶ ἐποιήσαμεν κατὰ πάντα, ἃ ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν Ἰωναδὰβ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν.
11Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, whom you now fear; do not be afraid of him, declares the LORD, for I am with you to save you and deliver you from him.
11καὶ ἐγενήθη ὅτε ἀνέβη Ναβουχοδονόσορ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ εἴπαμεν· εἰσέλθατε καὶ εἰσέλθωμεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς δυνάμεως τῶν Χαλδαίων καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς δυνάμεως τῶν Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ ᾠκοῦμεν ἐκεῖ.
12And I will show you compassion, and he will have compassion on you and restore you to your own land.’
12καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρός με λέγων·
13But if you say, ‘We will not stay in this land,’ and you thus disobey the voice of the LORD your God,
13οὕτως λέγει Κύριος· πορεύου καὶ εἰπὸν ἀνθρώπῳ Ἰούδα καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἱερουσαλήμ· οὐ μὴ λάβητε παιδείαν τοῦ ἀκούειν τοὺς λόγους μου;
14and if you say, ‘No, but we will go to the land of Egypt and live there, where we will not see war or hear the sound of the ram’s horn or hunger for bread,’
14ἔστησαν ρῆμα υἱοὶ Ἰωναδάβ, υἱοῦ Ρηχάβ, ὃ ἐνετείλατο τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸ μὴ πιεῖν οἴνον, καὶ οὐκ ἐπίοσαν· καὶ ἐγὼ ἐλάλησα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὄρθρου, καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατε.
15then hear the word of the LORD, O remnant of Judah! This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘If you are determined to go to Egypt and reside there,
15καὶ ἀπέστειλα πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοὺς παῖδάς μου τοὺς προφήτας λέγων· ἀποστράφητε ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ τῆς πονηρᾶς καὶ βελτίω ποιήσατε τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα ὑμῶν καὶ οὐ πορεύσεσθε ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων τοῦ δουλεύειν αὐτοῖς, καὶ οἰκήσετε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἧς ἔδωκα ὑμῖν καὶ τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν· καὶ οὐκ ἐκλίνατε τὰ ὦτα ὑμῶν καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατε.
16then the sword you fear will overtake you there, and the famine you dread will follow on your heels into Egypt, and you will die there.
16καὶ ἔστησαν υἱοὶ Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ρηχὰβ τὴν ἐντολὴν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν, ὁ δὲ λαὸς οὗτος οὐκ ἤκουσέ μου.
17So all who resolve to go to Egypt to reside there will die by sword and famine and plague. Not one of them will survive or escape the disaster I will bring upon them.’
17διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ φέρω ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἱερουσαλὴμ πάντα τὰ κακά, ἃ ἐλάλησα ἐπ' αὐτούς.
18For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Just as My anger and wrath were poured out on the residents of Jerusalem, so will My wrath be poured out on you if you go to Egypt. You will become an object of cursing and horror, of vilification and disgrace, and you will never see this place again.’
18διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος· ἐπειδὴ ἤκουσαν υἱοὶ Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ρηχὰβ τὴν ἐντολὴν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν ποιεῖν καθότι ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν,
19The LORD has told you, O remnant of Judah, ‘Do not go to Egypt.’ Know for sure that I have warned you today!
19οὐ μὴ ἐκλίπῃ ἀνὴρ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ρηχὰβ παρεστηκὼς κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς γῆς.
20For you have deceived yourselves by sending me to the LORD your God, saying, ‘Pray to the LORD our God on our behalf, and as for all that the LORD our God says, tell it to us and we will do it.’
