Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And Moses went, and spoke all these words to all Israel,
1Καὶ συνετέλεσε Μωυσῆς λαλῶν πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ,
2And he said to them: I am this day a hundred and twenty years old, I can no longer go out and come in, especially as the Lord also hath said to me: O Thou shalt not pass over this Jordan.
2καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ἐκατὸν καὶ εἴκοσι ἐτῶν ἐγώ εἰμι σήμερον· οὐ δυνήσομαι ἔτι εἰσπορεύεσθαι καὶ ἐκπορεύεσθαι· Κύριος δὲ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, οὐ διαβήσῃ τὸν Ιορδάνην τοῦτον.
3The Lord thy God then will pass over before thee: he will destroy all these nations in thy sight, and thou shalt possess them: and this Josue shall go over before thee, as the Lord hath spoken.
3Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου ὁ προπορευόμενος πρὸ προσώπου σου, οὗτος ἐξολοθρεύσει τὰ ἔθνη ταῦτα ἀπὸ προσώπου σου, καὶ κατακληρονομήσεις αὐτούς· καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ προπορευόμενος πρὸ προσώπου σου, καθὰ ἐλάλησε Κύριος.
4And the Lord shall do to them as he did to Sehon and Og the kings of the Amorrhites, and to their land, and shall destroy them.
4Καὶ ποιήσει Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου αὐτοῖς καθὼς ἐποίησε Σηὼν καὶ Ὢγ δυσὶ βασιλεῦσι τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων, οἳ ἦσαν πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, καὶ τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν, καθότι ἐξωλόθρευσεν αὐτούς.
5Therefore when the Lord shall have delivered these also to you, you shall do in like manner to them as I have commanded you,
5Καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος ὑμῖν· καὶ ποιήσετε αὐτοῖς, καθότι ἐνετειλάμην ὑμῖν.
6Do manfully and be of good heart: fear not, nor be ye dismayed at their sight: for the Lord thy God he himself is thy leader, and will not leave thee nor forsake thee.
6Ἀνδρίζου καὶ ἴσχυε, μὴ φοβοῦ, μηδὲ δειλιάσῃς, μηδὲ πτοηθῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν· ὅτι Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου ὁ προπορευόμενος μεθʼ ὑμῶν ἐν ὑμῖν, οὔτε μή σε ἀνῇ, οὔτε μή σε ἐγκαταλίπῃ.
7And Moses called Josue, and said to him before all Israel: Take courage, and be valiant: for thou shalt bring this people into the land which the Lord swore he would give to their fathers, and thou shalt divide it by lot.
7Καὶ ἐκάλεσε Μωυσῆς Ἰησοῦν, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἔναντι παντὸς Ἰσραὴλ, ἀνδρίζου καὶ ἴσχυε, σὺ γὰρ εἰσελεύσῃ πρὸ προσώπου τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ὤμοσε Κύριος τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν δοῦναι αὐτοῖς, καὶ σὺ κατακληρονομήσεις αὐτοῖς.
8And the Lord who is your leader, he himself will be with thee: he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
8Καὶ Κύριος ὁ συμπορευόμενος μετὰ σοῦ, οὐκ ἀνήσει σε, οὐδὲ μὴ σε ἐγκαταλίπῃ· μή φοβοῦ, μηδὲ δειλία.
9And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the ancients of Israel.
9Καὶ ἔγραψε Μωυσῆς τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ νόμου τούτου εἰς βιβλίον, καὶ ἔδωκε τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευὶ τοῖς αἴρουσι τὴν κιβωτὸν τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου, καὶ τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
10And he commanded them, saying: After seven years, in the year of remission, in the feast of tabernacles,
10Καὶ ἐνετείλατο Μωυσῆς αὐτοῖς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, λέγων, μετὰ ἑπτὰ ἔτη ἐν καιρῷ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἀφέσεως ἐν ἑορτῇ σκηνοπηγίας,
11When all Israel come together, to appear in the sight of the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose, thou shalt read the words of this law before all Israel, in their hearing,
11ἐν τῷ συμπορεύεσθαι πάντα Ἰσραὴλ ὀφθῆναι ἐνώπιον Κύριου τοῦ Θεοῦ ὑμῶν, ἐν τῷ τόπῳ ᾧ ἂν ἐκλέξηται Κύριος, ἀναγνώσεσθε τὸν νόμον τοῦτον ἐναντίον παντὸς Ἰσραὴλ εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν,
12And the people being all assembled together, both men and women, children and strangers, that are within thy gates: that hearing they may learn, and fear the Lord your God, and keep, and fulfill all the words of this law:
12ἐκκλησιάσας τὸν λαὸν, τοὺς ἄνδρας καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ τὰ ἔκγονα καὶ τὸν προσήλυτον τὸν ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν ὑμῶν, ἵνʼ ἀκούσωσι, καὶ ἵνα μάθωσι φοβεῖσθαι Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν ὑμῶν· καὶ ἀκούσονται ποιεῖν πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ νόμου τούτου.
13That their children also, who now are ignorant, may hear, and fear the Lord their God, all the days that they lire in the land whither you are going over the Jordan to possess it.
13Καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν οἳ οὐκ οἴδασιν, ἀκούσονται, καὶ μαθήσονται φοβεῖσθαι Κύριον τὸν Θεόν σου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὅσας αὐτοὶ ζῶσιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, εἰς ἣν ὑμεῖς διαβαίνετε τὸν Ἰορδάνην ἐκεῖ κληρονομῆσαι αὐτήν.
14And the Lord said to Moses: Behold the days of thy death are nigh: call Josue, and stand ye in the tabernacle of the testimony, that I may give him a charge. So Moses and Josue went and stood in the tabernacle of the testimony:
14Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ἰδοὺ ἐγγίκασιν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ θανάτου σου· κάλεσον Ἰησοῦν, καὶ στῆτε παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ ἐντελοῦμαι αὐτῷ· καὶ ἐπορεύθη Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ ἔστησαν παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου.
15And the Lord appeared there in the pillar of a cloud, which stood in the entry of the tabernacle.
15Καὶ κατέβη Κύριος ἐν νεφέλῃ, καὶ ἔστη παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου· καὶ ἔστη ὁ στύλος τῆς νεφέλης παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου.
16And the Lord said to Moses: Behold thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, and this people rising up will go a fornicating after strange gods in the land, to which it goeth in to dwell: there will they forsake me, and will make void the covenant, which I have made with them,
16Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ἰδοὺ σὺ κοιμᾷ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων σου, καὶ ἀναστὰς οὗτος ὁ λαὸς ἐκπορνεύσει ὀπίσω θεῶν ἀλλοτρίων τῆς γῆς, εἰς ἣν οὗτος εἰσπορεύεται, καὶ καταλείψουσί με, καὶ διασκεδάσουσι τὴν διαθήκην μου, ἣν διεθέμην αὐτοῖς.
17And my wrath shall be kindled against them in that day: and I will forsake them, and will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured: all evils and afflictions shall find them, so that they shall say in that day: In truth it is because God is not with me, that these evils have found me.
17Καὶ ὀργισθήσομαι θυμῷ εἰς αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ καταλείψω αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀπʼ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔσται κατάβρωμα· καὶ εὑρήσουσιν αὐτὸν κακὰ πολλὰ καὶ θλίψεις· καὶ ἐρεῖ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, διότι οὐκ ἔστι Κύριος ὁ Θεός μου ἐν ἐμοὶ, εὕροσάν με τὰ κακὰ ταῦτα.
18But I will hide, and cover my face in that day, for all the evils which they have done, because they have followed strange gods.
18Ἐγὼ δὲ ἀποστροφῇ ἀποστρέψω τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀπʼ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, διὰ πάσας τὰς κακίας ἃς ἐποίησαν, ὅτι ἀπέστρεψαν ἐπὶ θεοὺς ἀλλοτρίους.
19Now therefore write you this canticle, and teach the children of Israel: that they may know it by heart, and sing it by mouth, and this song may be unto me for a testimony among the children of Israel.
19Καὶ νῦν γράψατε τὰ ῥήματα τῆς ᾠδῆς ταύτης, καὶ διδάξατε αὐτὴν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐμβαλεῖτε αὐτὴν εἰς τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν, ἵνα γένηταί μοι ἡ ᾠδὴ αὕτη κατὰ πρόσωπον μαρτυροῦσα ἐν υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ.
20For I will bring them into the land, for which I swore to their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey. And when they have eaten, and are full and fat, they will turn away after strange gods, and will serve them: and will despise me, and make void my covenant.
20Εἰσάξω γὰρ αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ἀγαθὴν, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, δοῦναι αὐτοῖς γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι, καὶ φάγονται, καὶ ἐμπλησθέντες κορήσουσι, καὶ ἐπιστραφήσονται ἐπὶ θεοὺς ἀλλοτρίους, καὶ λατρεύσουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ παροξυνοῦσί με, καὶ διασκεδάσουσι τὴν διαθήκην μου.
21And after many evils and afflictions shall have come upon them, this canticle shall answer them for a testimony, which no oblivion shall take away out of the mouth of their seed. For I know their thoughts, and what they are about to do this day, before that I bring them into the land which I have promised them.
21Καὶ ἀντικαταστήσεται ἡ ᾠδὴ αὕτη κατὰ πρόσωπον μαρτυροῦσα· οὐ γὰρ μὴ ἐπιλησθῇ ἀπὸ στόματος αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀπὸ στόματος τοῦ σπέρματος αὐτῶν· ἐγὼ γὰρ οἶδα τὴν πονηρίαν αὐτῶν, ὅσα ποιοῦσιν ὧδε σήμερον, πρὸ τοῦ εἰσαγαγεῖν με αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ἀγαθὴν, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν.
22Moses therefore wrote the canticle and taught it to the children of Israel.
22Καὶ ἔγραψε Μωυσῆς τὴν ᾠδὴν ταύτην ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, καὶ ἐδίδαξεν αὐτὴν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.
23And the Lord commanded Josue the son of Nun, and said: Take courage, and be valiant: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I have promised, and I will be with thee.
23Καὶ ἐνετείλατο Ἰησοῖ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἀνδρίζου καὶ ἴσχυε, σὺ γὰρ εἰσάξεις τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ εἰς τὴν γῆν, ἣν ὤμοσεν αὐτοῖς Κύριος, καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται μετὰ σοῦ.
24Therefore after Moses had wrote the words of this law in a volume, and finished it:
24Ἡνίκα δὲ συνετέλεσε Μωυσῆς γράφων πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ νόμου τούτου εἰς βιβλίον ἕως εἰς τέλος,
25He commanded the Levites, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord. saying:
25καὶ ἐνετείλατο τοῖς Λευίταις τοῖς αἴρουσι τὴν κιβωτὸν τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου, λέγων,
26Take this book, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God: that it may be there for a testimony against thee.
26λαβόντες τὸ βιβλίον τοῦ νόμου τούτου, θήσετε αὐτὸ ἐκ πλαγίων τῆς κιβωτοῦ τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ὑμῶν· καὶ ἔσται ἐκεῖ ἐν σοὶ εἰς μαρτύριον.
27For I know thy obstinacy, and thy most stiff neck, While I am yet living, and going in with you, you have always been rebellious against the Lord: how much more when I shall be dead?
27Ὅτι ἐγὼ ἐπίσταμαι τὸν ἐρεθισμόν σου, καὶ τὸν τράχηλόν σου τὸν σκληρόν· ἔτι γὰρ ἐμοῦ ζῶντος μεθʼ ὑμῶν σήμερον, παραπικραίνοντες ἦτε τὰ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν· πῶς οὐχὶ καὶ ἔσχατον τοῦ θανάτου μου;
28Gather unto me all the ancients of your tribes, and your doctors, and I will speak these words in their hearing, and will call heaven and earth to witness against them.
28Ἐκκλησιάσατε πρὸς μὲ τοὺς φυλάρχους ὑμῶν, καὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους ὑμῶν, καὶ τοὺς κριτὰς ὑμῶν, καὶ τοὺς γραμματοεισαγωγεῖς ὑμῶν, ἵνα λαλήσω εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους· καὶ διαμαρτύρομαι αὐτοῖς τόν τε οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν.
29For I know that, after my death, you will do wickedly, and will quickly turn aside from the way that I have commanded you: and evils shall come upon you in the latter times, when you shall do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him by the works of your hands.
29Οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι ἔσχατον τῆς τελευτῆς μου ἀνομίᾳ ἀνομήσετε, καὶ ἐκκλινεῖτε ἐκ τῆς ὁδοῦ ἧς ἐνετειλάμην ὑμῖν, καὶ συναντήσεται ὑμῖν τὰ κακὰ ἔσχατον τῶν ἡμερῶν, ὅτι ποιήσετε τὰ πονηρὰ ἐναντίον Κυρίου, παροργίσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν.
30Moses therefore spoke, in the hearing of the whole assembly of Israel, the words of this canticle, and finished it even to the end,
30Καὶ ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς εἰς τὰ ὦτα πάσης ἐκκλησίας τὰ ῥήματα τῆς ᾠδῆς ταύτης ἕως εἰς τέλος.
