1The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the tenth year of Sedecias king of Juda: the same is eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor.
1ΟΥΤΩΣ εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραήλ· λαβὲ τὸ ποτήριον τοῦ οἴνου τοῦ ἀκράτου τούτου ἐκ χειρός μου καὶ ποτιεῖς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, πρὸς ἃ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω σε πρὸς αὐτούς,
2At that time the army of the king o Babylon besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremias the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Juda.
2καὶ πίονται καὶ ἐξεμοῦνται καὶ ἐκμανήσονται ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας, ἧς ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν.
3For Sedecias king of Juda had shut him up, saying: Why dost thou prophesy, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it?
3καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ ποτήριον ἐκ χειρὸς Κυρίου καὶ ἐπότισα τὰ ἔθνη, πρὸς ἃ ἀπέστειλέ με Κύριος ἐπ' αὐτά,
4And Sedecias king of Juda shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans: but he shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon: and he shall speak to him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall see his eyes.
4τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα καὶ βασιλεῖς Ἰούδα καὶ ἄρχοντας αὐτοῦ τοῦ θεῖναι αὐτὰς εἰς ἐρήμωσιν καὶ εἰς ἄβατον καὶ εἰς συριγμὸν
5And he shall lead Sedecias to Babylon: and he shall be there till I visit him, saith the Lord. But if you will fight against the Chaldeans, you shall have no success.
5καὶ τὸν Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου καὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς μεγιστᾶνας αὐτοῦ
6And Jeremias said: The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
6καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντας τοὺς συμμείκτους καὶ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς ἀλλοφύλων, τὴν Ἀσκάλωνα καὶ τὴν Γάζαν καὶ τὴν Ἀκκάρων καὶ τὸ ἐπίλοιπον Ἀζώτου
7Behold, Hanameel the son of Sellum thy cousin shall come to thee, saying: Buy thee my field, which is in Anathoth, for it is thy right to buy it, being akin.
7καὶ τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν καὶ τὴν Μωαβῖτιν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀμμὼν
8And Hanameel my uncle’s son cam to me, according to the word of the to the entry of the prison, and said me: Buy my held, which is in in the land of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thins, and thou art next of kin to possess it. And I understood this was the word of the Lord.
8καὶ βασιλεῖς Τύρου καὶ βασιλεῖς Σιδῶνος καὶ βασιλεῖς τοὺς ἐν τῷ πέραν τῆς θαλάσσης
9And I bought the held of my uncle’s son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.
9καὶ τὴν Δαιδὰν καὶ τὴν Θαιμὰν καὶ τὴν Ρῶς καὶ πᾶν περικεκαρμένον κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ
10And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.
10καὶ πάντας τοὺς συμμείκτους τοὺς καταλύοντας ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ
11And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with the seals that were on the outside.
11καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς Αἰλὰμ καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς Περσῶν
12And I gave the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neri the son of Maasias in the sight of Hanameel my uncle’s son, in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, and before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
12καὶ πάντας βασιλεῖς ἀπὸ ἀπηλιώτου τοὺς πόρρω καὶ τοὺς ἐγγύς, ἕκαστον πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάσας βασιλείας τὰς ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς.
13And I charged Baruch before them, saying:
13καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς· οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος παντοκράτωρ· πίετε καὶ μεθύσθητε καὶ ἐξεμέσετε καὶ πεσεῖσθε καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀναστῆτε ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας, ἧς ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ἀνὰ μέσον ὑμῶν.
14Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Take these writings, this deed of the purchase that is sealed up, and this deed that is open: and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.
14καὶ ἔσται ὅταν μὴ βούλωνται δέξασθαι τὸ ποτήριον ἐκ τῆς χειρός σου ὥστε πιεῖν, καὶ ἐρεῖς· οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος· πιόντες πίεσθε·
15For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.
15ὅτι ἐν πόλει, ἐν ᾗ ὠνομάσθη τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐπ' αὐτήν, ἐγὼ ἄρχομαι κακῶσαι, καὶ ὑμεῖς καθάρσει οὐ μὴ καθαρισθῆτε, ὅτι μάχαιραν ἐγὼ καλῶ ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς καθημένους ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
16And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
16καὶ σὺ προφητεύσεις ἐπ' αὐτοὺς τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ ἐρεῖς· Κύριος ἀφ' ὑψηλοῦ χρηματιεῖ, ἀπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου αὐτοῦ δώσει φωνὴν αὐτοῦ, λόγον χρηματιεῖ ἐπὶ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ, καὶ αἰδὰδ ὥσπερ τρυγῶντες ἀποκριθήσονται· καὶ ἐπὶ καθημένους τὴν γῆν ἥκει ὄλεθρος
17Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:
17ἐπὶ μέρος τῆς γῆς, ὅτι κρίσις τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, κρίνεται αὐτὸς πρὸς πᾶσαν σάρκα, οἱ δὲ ἀσεβεῖς ἐδόθησαν εἰς μάχαιραν, λέγει Κύριος.
18Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.
18οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος· ἰδοὺ κακὰ ἔρχεται ἀπὸ ἔθνους ἐπὶ ἔθνος, καὶ λαῖλαψ μεγάλη ἐκπορεύεται ἀπ' ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς.
19Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of Adam, to render unto every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his devices.
19καὶ ἔσονται τραυματίαι ὑπὸ Κυρίου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ Κυρίου, ἐκ μέρους τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἕως εἰς μέρος τῆς γῆς· οὐ μὴ κατορυγῶσιν, εἰς κόπρια ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς ἔσονται.
20Who hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt even until this day, and in Israel, and amongst men, and hast made thee a name as at this day.
20ἀλαλάξατε, ποιμένες, καὶ κεκράξατε· καὶ κόπτεσθε οἱ κριοὶ τῶν προβάτων, ὅτι ἐπληρώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι ὑμῶν εἰς σφαγήν, καὶ πεσεῖσθε ὥσπερ οἱ κριοὶ οἱ ἐκλεκτοί·
21And hast brought forth thy people Israel, out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm, and with great terror.
21καὶ ἀπολεῖται φυγὴ ἀπὸ τῶν ποιμένων καὶ σωτηρία ἀπὸ τῶν κριῶν τῶν προβάτων.
22And best given them this land which thou didst swear to their fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey.
22φωνὴ κραυγῆς τῶν ποιμένων καὶ ἀλαλαγμὸς τῶν προβάτων καὶ τῶν κριῶν, ὅτι ὠλόθρευσε Κύριος τὰ βοσκήματα αὐτῶν,
23And they came in, and possessed it: but they obeyed not thy voice, and they walked not in thy law: and they did not any of those things that thou didst command them to do, and all these evils are come upon them.
23καὶ παύσεται τὰ κατάλοιπα τῆς εἰρήνης ἀπὸ προσώπου ὀργῆς θυμοῦ μου.
24Behold works are built up against the city to take it: and the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken, is all come to pass, as thou thyself seest.
24ἐγκατέλιπεν ὥσπερ λέων κατάλειμμα αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἡ γῆ αὐτῶν εἰς ἄβατον ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς μαχαίρας τῆς μεγάλης.
25And sayest thou to me, O Lord God: Buy a field for money, and take witnesses, whereas the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans?
