Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1These are the words, which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan, in the plain wilderness, over against the Red Sea, between Pharan and Thophel and Laban and Haseroth, where there is very much gold:
1ΟΥΤΟΙ οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς παντὶ Ἰσραὴλ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ πρὸς δυσμαῖς πλησίον τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης ἀναμέσον Φαρὰν Τοφὸλ, καὶ Λοβὸν, καὶ Αὐλῶν, καὶ καταχρύσεα.
2Eleven days’ journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Cadesbarne.
2Ἕνδεκα ἡμερῶν ἐκ Χωρὴβ ὁδὸς ἐπʼ ὄρος
3In the fortieth year, the eleventh month, the first day of the month, Moses spoke to the children of Israel all that the Lord had commanded him to say to them:
3Σηεὶρ ἕως Κάδης Βαρνή. Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ τεσσαρακοστῷ ἔτει ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο Κύριος αὐτῷ πρὸς αὐτούς· μετὰ τὸ πατάξαι
4After that he had slain Sehon king of the Amorrhites, who dwelt in Hesebon: and Og king of Basan who abode in Astaroth, and in Edrai,
4Σηὼν βασιλέα Ἀμοῤῥαίων τὸν κατοικήσαντα ἐν Ἐσεβὼν, καὶ τὸν Ὢγ βασιλέα τῆς Βασὰν τὸν κατοικήσαντα ἐν Ἀσταρὼθ καὶ ἐν
5Beyond the Jordan in the land of Moab. And Moses began to expound the law, and to say:
5Ἐδραῒν, ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐν γῇ Μωὰβ, ἤρξατο Μωυσῆς διασαφῆσαι τὸν νόμον τοῦτον, λέγων,
6The Lord our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying: You have stayed long enough in this mountain:
6Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλάλησεν ἡμῖν ἐν Χωρὴβ, λέγων, ἰκανούσθω ὑμῖν κατοικεῖν ἐν τῷ ὄρει τούτῳ.
7Turn you, and come to the mountain of the Amorrhites, and to the other places that are next to it, the plains and the hills and the vales towards the south, and by the sea shore, the land of the Chanaanites, and of Libanus, as far as the great river Euphrates.
7Ἐπιστράφητε καὶ ἀπάρατε ὑμεῖς καὶ εἰσπορεύεσθε εἰς ὄρος Ἀμοῤῥαίων, καὶ πρὸς πάντας τοὺς περιοίκους Ἄραβα, εἰς ὄρος καὶ πεδίον, καὶ πρὸς Λίβα, καὶ παραλίαν γῆν Χαναναίων, καὶ Ἀντιλίβανον ἕως τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ μεγάλου, ποταμοῦ Εὐφράτου.
8Behold, said he, I have delivered it to you: go in and possess it, concerning which the Lord swore to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that he would give it to them, and to their seed after them.
8Ἴδετε, παραδέδωκεν ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν τὴν γῆν· εἰσπορευθέντες κληρονομήσατε τὴν γῆν, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν τῷ Ἁβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰσκὼβ, δοῦναι αὐτοῖς καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτῶν μετʼ αὐτούς.
9And I said to you at that time:
9Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, λέγων, οὐ δυνήσομαι μόνος φέρειν ὑμᾶς.
10I alone am not able to bear you: for the Lord your God hath multiplied you, and you are this day as the stars of heaven, for multitude.
10Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐπλήθυνεν ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἰδού ἐστε σήμερον ὡσεὶ τὰ ἄστρα τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τῷ πλήθει.
11(The Lord God of your fathers add to this number many thousands, and bless you as he hath spoken.)
11Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν προσθείῃ ὑμῖν ὡς ἐστὲ χιλιοπλασίως, καὶ εὐλογήσαι ὑμᾶς καθότι ἐλάλησεν ὑμῖν.
12I alone am not able to bear your business, and the charge of you and your differences.
12Πῶς δυνήσομαι μόνος φέρειν τὸν κόπον ὑμῶν καὶ τὴν ὑπόστασιν ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς ἀντιλογίας ὑμῶν;
13Let me have from among you wise and understanding men, and such whose conversation is approved among your tribes, that I may appoint them your rulers.
13Δότε ἑαυτοῖς ἄνδρας σοφοὺς καὶ ἐπιστήμονας καὶ συνετοὺς εἰς τὰς φυλὰς ὑμῶν, καὶ καταστήσω ἐφʼ ὑμῶν, ἡγουμένους ὑμῶν.
14Then you answered me: The thing is good which thou meanest to do.
14Καὶ ἀπεκρίθητέ μοι, καὶ εἴπατε, καλὸν τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐλάλησας ποιῆσαι.
15And I took out of your tribes men wise and honourable, and appointed them rulers, tribunes, and centurions, and officers over fifties, and over tens, who might teach you all things.
15Καὶ ἔλαβον ἐξ ὑμῶν ἄνδρας σοφοὺς καὶ ἐπιστήμονας καὶ συνετούς, καὶ κατέστησα αὐτοὺς ἡγεῖσθαι ἐφʼ ὑμῶν χιλιάρχους, καὶ ἑκατοντάρχους, καὶ πεντηκοντάρχους, καὶ δεκάρχους, καὶ γραμματοεισαγωγεῖς τοῖς κριταῖς ὑμῶν·
16And I commanded them, saying: Hear them, and judge that which is just: whether he be one of your country, or a stranger.
16Καὶ ἐνετειλάμην τοῖς κριταῖς ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, λέγων, διακούετε ἀναμέσον τῶν ἀδελφῶν ὑμῶν, καὶ κρίνατε δικαίως ἀναμέσον ἀνδρὸς, καὶ ἀναμέσον ἀδελφοῦ, καὶ ἀναμέσον προσηλύτου αὐτοῦ.
17There shall be no difference of persons, you shall hear the little as well as the great: neither shall you respect any man’s person, because it is the judgment of God. And if any thing seem hard to you, refer it to me, and I will hear it.
17Οὐκ ἐπιγνώσῃ πρόσωπον ἐν κρίσει, κατὰ τὸν μικρὸν καὶ κατὰ τὸν μέγαν κρινεῖς, οὐ μὴ ὑποστείλῃ πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι ἡ κρίσις τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐστι· καὶ τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐὰν σκληρὸν ἠ· ἀφʼ ὑμῶν, ἀνοίσετε αὐτὸ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, καὶ ἀκούσομαι αὐτό.
18And I commanded you all things that you were to do.
18Καὶ ἐνετειλάμην ὑμῖν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ πάντας τοὺς λόγους, οὓς ποιήσετε.
19And departing from Horeb, we passed through the terrible and vast wilderness, which you saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorrhite, as the Lord our God had commanded us. And when we were come into Cadesbarne,
19Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐκ Χωρὴβ ἐπορεύθημεν πᾶσαν τὴν ἔρημον τὴν μεγάλην καὶ τὴν φοβερὰν ἐκείνην, ἣν εἴδετε, ὁδὸν ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου, καθότι ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἤλθομεν ἕως Κάδης Βαρνή.
20I said to you: You are come to the mountain of the Amorrhite, which the Lord our God will give to us.
20Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ἤλθατε ἕως τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου, ὃ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν δίδωσιν ὑμῖν.
21See the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee: go up and possess it, as the Lord our God hath spoken to thy fathers: fear not, nor be any way discouraged.
21Ἴδετε, παραδέδωκεν ὑμῖν Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν τὴν γῆν· ἀναβάντες κληρονομήσατε ὃν τρόπον εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν ὑμῖν· μὴ φοβεῖσθε, μηδὲ δειλιάσητε.
22And you came all to me, and said: Let us send men who may view the land, and bring us word what way we shall go up, and to what cities we shall go.
22Καὶ προσήλθατέ μοι πάντες, καὶ εἴπατε, Ἀποστείλωμεν ἄνδρας προτέρους ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐφοδευσάτωσαν ἡμῖν τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἀναγγειλάτωσαν ἡμῖν ἀπόκρισιν τὴν ὁδὸν διʼ ἧς ἀναβησόμεθα ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ τὰς πόλεις εἰς ἃς εἰσπορευσόμεθα εἰς αὐτάς.
23And because the saying pleased me, I sent of you twelve men, one of every tribe:
23Καὶ ἤρεσεν ἐναντίον μου τὸ ῥῆμα· καὶ ἔλαβον ἐξ ὑμῶν δώδεκα ἄνδρας, ἄνδρα ἕνα κατά φυλήν.
24Who, when they had set forward and had gone up to the mountains, came as far as the valley of the cluster: and having viewed the land,
24Καὶ ἐπιστραφέντες ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸ ὄρος, καὶ ἤλθοσαν ἕως φάραγγος βότρυος, καὶ κατεσκόπευσαν αὐτήν.
25Taking of the fruits thereof, to shew its fertility, they brought them to us, and said: The land is good, which the Lord our God will give us.
25Καὶ ἐλάβοσαν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ καρποῦ τῆς γῆς, καὶ κατήνεγκαν πρὸς ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔλεγον, Ἀγαθὴ ἡ γῆ, ἣν Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν δίδωσιν ἡμῖν.
26And you would not go up, but being incredulous to the word of the Lord our God,
26Καὶ οὐκ ἠθελήσατε ἀναβῆναι, ἀλλʼ ἠπειθήσατε τῷ ῥήματι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.
27You murmured in your tents, and said: The Lord hateth us, and therefore he hath brought us out of the land of Egypt, that he might deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and destroy us.
27Καὶ διεγογγύζετε ἐν ταῖς σκηναῖς ὑμῶν, καὶ εἴπατε, διὰ τὸ μισεῖν Κύριον ἡμᾶς, ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου παραδοῦναι ἡμᾶς εἰς χεῖρας Ἀμοῤῥαίων, ἐξολοθρεῦσαι ἡμᾶς.
28Whither shall we go up? the messengers have terrified our hearts, saying: The multitude is very great, and taller than we: the cities are great, and walled up to the sky, we have seen the sons of the Enacims there.
28Ποῦ ἡμεῖς ἀναβαίνομεν; οἱ δὲ ἀδελφοὶ ὑμῶν ἀπέστησαν τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν, λέγοντες, ἔθνος μέγα καὶ πολὺ καὶ δυνατώτερον ἡμῶν, καὶ πόλεις μεγάλαι καὶ τετειχισμέναι ἕως τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· ἀλλὰ καὶ υἱοὺς γιγάντων ἑωράκαμεν ἐκεῖ.
29And I said to you: Fear not, neither be ye afraid of them:
29Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, μὴ πτήξητε, μηδὲ φοβηθῆτε ἀπʼ αὐτῶν.
30The Lord God, who is your leader, himself will fight for you, as he did in Egypt in the sight of all.
30Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ὁ προπορευόμενος πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν, αὐτὸς συνεκπολεμήσει αὐτοὺς μεθʼ ὑμῶν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν ὑμῖν ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ταύτῃ ἣν εἴδετε, ὁδὸν ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου· ὡς τροφοφορήσαι σε Κύριος ὁ
31And in the wilderness (as thou hast seen) the Lord thy God hath carried thee, as a man is wont to carry his little son, all the way that you have come, until you came to this place.
31Θεός σου, ὡς εἴτις τροφοφορήσαι ἄνθρωπος τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν ὁδὸν εἰς ἣν ἐπορεύθητε ἕως ῆλθετε εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον.
32And yet for all this you did not believe the Lord your God,
32Καὶ ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ οὐκ ἐνεπιστεύσατε Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν,
33Who went before you in the way, and marked out the place, wherein you should pitch your tents, in the night shewing you the way by fire, and in the day by the pillar of a cloud.
33ὃς προπορεύεται πρότερος ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκλέγεσθαι ὑμῖν τόπον, ὁδηγῶν ὑμᾶς ἐν πυρὶ νυκτὸς, δεικνύων ὑμῖν τὴν ὁδὸν καθʼ ἣν πορεύεσθε ἐπʼ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐν νεφέλῃ ἡμέρας.
34And when the Lord had heard the voice of your words, he was angry and swore, and said:
34Καὶ ἤκουσε Κύριος τὴν φωνὴν τῶν λόγων ὑμῶν, καὶ παροξυνθεὶς ὤμοσε, λέγων,
35Not one of the men of this wicked generation shall see the good land, which I promised with an oath to your fathers:
35εἰ ὄψεταί τις τῶν ἀνδρῶν τούτων τὴν γῆν ἀγαθὴν ταύτην, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, πλὴν
36Except Caleb the son of Jephone: for he shall see it, and to him I will give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath followed the Lord.
36Χάλεβ υἱὸς Ἰεφοννὴ, οὗτος ὄψεται αὐτὴν, καὶ τούτῳ δώσω τὴν γῆν ἐφʼ ἣν ἐπέβη, καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ, διὰ τὸ προσκεῖσθαι αὐτὸν τὰ πρὸς Κύριον.
37Neither is his indignation against the people to be wondered at, since the Lord was angry with me also on your account, and said: Neither shalt thou go in thither.
37Καὶ ἐμοὶ ἐθυμώθη Κύριος διʼ ὑμᾶς, λέγων, οὐδὲ σὺ οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθῃς ἐκεῖ.
38But Josue the son of Nun, thy minister, he shall go in for thee: exhort and encourage him, and he shall divide the land by lot to Israel.
38Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυὴ ὁ παρεστηκώς σοι, οὗτος εἰσελεύσεται ἐκεῖ· αὐτὸν κατίσχυσον, ὅτι αὐτὸς κατακληρονομήσει αὐτὴν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
39Your children, of whom you said that they should be led away captives, and your sons who know not this day the difference of good and evil, they shall go in: and to them I will give the land, and they shall possess it.
39Καὶ πᾶν παιδίον νέον ὅστις οὐκ οἶδε σήμερον ἀγαθὸν ἢ κακόν, οὗτοι εἰσελεύσονται ἐκεῖ, καὶ τούτοις δώσω αὐτήν, καὶ αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσιν αὐτήν.
40But return you and go into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.
40Καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐπιστράφεντες ἐστρατοπεδεύσατε εἰς τὴν ἔρημον, ὁδὸν τὴν ἐπὶ τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης.
41And you answered me: We have sinned against the Lord: we will go up and fight, as the Lord our God hath commanded. And when you went ready armed unto the mountain,
41Καὶ ἀπεκρίθητε, καὶ εἴπατε, ἡμάρτομεν ἔναντι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν· ἡμεῖς ἀναβάντες πολεμήσομεν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἡμῖν· καὶ ἀναλαβόντες ἕκαστος τὰ σκεύη τὰ πολεμικὰ αὐτοῦ, καὶ συναθροισθέντες ἀναβαίνετε εἰς τὸ ὄρος.
42The Lord said to me: Say to them: Go not up, and fight not, for I am not with you: lest you fall before your enemies.
42Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, εἶπον αὐτοῖς, οὐκ ἀναβήσεσθε οὐδὲ μὴ πολεμήσετε, οὐ γάρ εἰμι μεθʼ ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ συντριβῆτε ἐνώπιον τῶν ἐχθρῶν ὑμῶν.
43I spoke, and you hearkened not: but resisting the commandment of the Lord, and swelling with pride, you went up into the mountain.
43Καὶ ἐλάλησα ὑμῖν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατέ μου· καὶ παρέβητε τὸ ῥῆμα Κυρίου· καὶ παραβιασάμενοι ἀνέβητε εἰς τὸ ὄρος.
44And the Amorrhite that dwelt in the mountains coming out, and meeting you, chased you, as bees do: and made slaughter of you from Seir as far as Horma.
44Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ Ἀμοῤῥαῖος ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκείνῳ εἰς συνάντησιν ὑμῖν, καὶ κατεδίωξεν ὑμᾶς ὡσεὶ ποιήσαισαν αἱ μέλισσαι, καὶ ἐτίτρωσκον ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ Σηεὶρ ἕως Ἑρμᾶ.
45And when you returned and wept before the Lord, he heard you not, neither would he yield to; your voice.
45Καὶ καθίσαντες ἐκλαίετε ἐναντίον Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς ὑμῶν, οὐδὲ προσέσχεν ὑμῖν.
46So you abode in Cadesbarne a long time.
46Καὶ ἐνεκάθησθε ἐν Κάδης ἡμέρας πολλάς, ὅσας ποτὲ ἡμέρας ἐνεκάθησθε.
