Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the ancients of Juda sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me.
1Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἕκτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ μηνὶ, πέμπτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἐγὼ ἐκαθήμην ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Ἰούδα ἐκάθηντο ἐνώπιόν μου· καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπʼ ἐμὲ χεὶρ Κυρίου.
2And I saw, and behold a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins, and downward, fire: and from his loins, and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the appearance of amber.
2Καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁμοίωμα ἀνδρὸς, ἀπὸ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕως κάτω πῦρ, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ, ὑπεράνω αὐτοῦ ὡς ὅρασις ἠλέκτρου.
3And the likeness of a hand was put forth and took me by a lock of my head: and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the vision of God into Jerusalem, near the inner gate, that looked toward the north, where was set the idol of jealousy to provoke to jealousy.
3Καὶ ἐξέτεινεν ὁμοίωμα χειρὸς, καὶ ἀνέλαβέ με τῆς κορυφῆς μου, καὶ ἀνέλαβέ με πνεῦμα ἀναμέσον τῆς γῆς καὶ ἀναμέσον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἤγαγέ με εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὁράσει Θεοῦ ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης εἰς Βοῤῥᾶν, οὗ ἦν ἡ στήλη τοῦ κτωμένου·
4And behold the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I had seen in the plain.
4Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἦν ἐκεῖ δόξα Κυρίου Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ τὴν ὅρασιν ἣν ἴδον ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ.
5And he said to me: Son of man, lift up thy eyes towards the way of the north. And I lifted up my eyes towards the way of the north: and behold on the north side of the gate of the altar the idol of jealousy in the very entry.
5Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἀνάβλεψον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου πρὸς Βοῤῥᾶν· καὶ ἀνέβλεψα τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς μου πρὸς Βοῤῥᾶν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ ἐπὶ τὴν πύλην τὴν πρὸς ἀνατολάς,
6And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou see, thinkest thou, what these are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should depart far off from my sanctuary? and turn thee yet again and thou shalt see greater abominations.
6Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἑώρακας τί οὗτοι ποιοῦσιν· ἀνομίας μεγάλας ποιοῦσιν ὧδε τοῦ ἀπέχεσθαι ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων μου· καὶ ἔτι ὄψει ἀνομίας μείζονας.
7And he brought me in to the door of the court: and I saw, and behold a hole in the wall.
7Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς αὐλῆς.
8And he said to me: Son of man, dig in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
8Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ὄρυξον· καὶ ὤρυξα, καὶ ἰδοὺ θύρα.
9And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here.
9Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, εἴσελθε, καὶ ἴδε τὰς ἀνομίας ἃς οὗτοι ποιοῦσιν ὧδε.
10And I went in and saw, and behold every form of creeping things, and of living creatures, the abomination, and all the idols of the house of Israel, were painted on the wall all round about.
10Καὶ εἰσῆλθον, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ μάταια βδελύγματα, καὶ πάντα τὰ εἴδωλα οἴκου Ἰσραὴλ διαγεγραμμένα ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς κύκλῳ.
11And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them, that stood before the pictures: and every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense.
11Καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα ἄνδρες ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων οἴκου Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ Ἰεχονίας ὁ τοῦ Σαφὰν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν εἱστήκει πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, καὶ ἕκαστος θυμιατήριον αὐτοῦ εἶχεν ἐν τῇ χειρὶ, καὶ ἡ ἀτμὶς τοῦ θυμιάματος ἀνέβαινε.
12And he said to me: Surely thou seest. O son of man, what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every one in private in his chamber: for they say: The Lord seeth us not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth.
12Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ἑώρακας, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἃ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι οἴκου Ἰσραὴλ ποιοῦσιν, ἕκαστος αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ κοιτῶνι τῷ κρυπτῷ αὐτῶν, διότι εἶπαν, οὐχ ὁρᾷ ὁ Κύριος, ἐγκαταλέλοιπε Κύριος τὴν γῆν.
13And he said to me: If thou turn thee again, thou shalt see greater abominations which these commit.
13Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ἔτι ὄψει ἀνομίας μείζονας ἃς οὗτοι ποιοῦσι.
14And he brought me in by the door of the gate of the Lord’s house, which looked to the north: and behold women sat there mourning for Adonis.
14Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης οἴκου Κυρίου τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς Βοῤῥᾶν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ γυναῖκες καθήμεναι θρηνοῦσαι τὸν Θαμμούζ.
15And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: but turn thee again: and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
15Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου ἑώρακας, καὶ ἔτι ὄψει ἐπιτηδεύματα μείζονα τούτων.
16And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord: and behold at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men having their backs towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces to the east: and they adored towards the rising of the sun.
16Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν οἴκου Κυρίου τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν προθύρων τοῦ ναοῦ Κυρίου ἀναμέσον τῶν αἰλὰμ, καὶ ἀναμέσον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου, ὡς εἴκοσι ἄνδρες τὰ ὀπίσθια αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Κυρίου, καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἀπέναντι, καὶ οὗτοι προσκυνοῦσι τῷ ἡλίῳ.
17And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: is this a light thing to the house of Juda, that they should commit these abominations which they have committed here: because they have filled the land with iniquity, and have turned to provoke me to anger? and behold they put a branch to their nose.
17Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ἑώρακας υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου· μη μικρα τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰούδα τοῦ ποιεῖν τὰς ἀνομίας ἃς πεποιήκασιν ὧδε; διότι ἔπλησαν τὴν γῆν ἀνομίας· καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτοὶ ὡς μυκτηρίζοντες.
18Therefore I also will deal with them in my wrath: my eye shall not spare them, neither will I shew mercy: and when they shall cry to my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.
18Καὶ ἐγὼ ποιήσω αὐτοῖς μετὰ θυμοῦ· οὐ φείσεται ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου, οὐδὲ μὴ ἐλεήσω.
