Ezekiel 29
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
1Ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ δωδεκάτῳ, ἐν τῷ δεκάτῳ μηνὶ, μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων,
2'Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt;
2υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, στήρισον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπὶ Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου, καὶ προφήτευσον ἐπʼ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπʼ Αἴγυπτον ὅλην,
3speak, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, that hath said: My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
3καὶ εἰπόν, Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπὶ Φαραὼ, τὸν δράκοντα τὸν μέγαν τὸν ἐγκαθήμενον ἐν μέσῳ ποταμῶν αὐτοῦ, τὸν λέγοντα, ἐμοί εἰσιν οἱ ποταμοὶ, καὶ ἐγὼ ἐποίησα αὐτούς.
4And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales; and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
4Καὶ ἐγὼ δώσω παγίδας εἰς τὰς σιαγόνας σου, καὶ προσκολλήσω τοὺς ἰχθῦας τοῦ ποταμοῦ σου πρὸς τὰς πτέρυγάς σου, καὶ ἀνάξω σε ἐκ μέσου τοῦ ποταμοῦ σου,
5And I will cast thee into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers; thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered; to the beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the heaven have I given thee for food.
5καὶ καταβαλῶ σε ἐν τάχει καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἰχθύας τοῦ ποταμοῦ σου· ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ πεδίου πέσῇ, καὶ οὐ μὴ συναχθῇς, καὶ οὐ μὴ περισταλῇς, τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς καὶ τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ δέδωκά σε εἰς κατάβρωμα·
6And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
6Καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες Αἴγυπτον, ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος· ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐγενήθης ῥάβδος καλαμίνη τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ,
7When they take hold of thee with the hand, thou dost break, and rend all their shoulders; and when they lean upon thee, thou breakest, and makest all their loins to be at a stand.
7ὅτε ἐπελάβετό σου τῇ χειρὶ αὐτῶν, ἐθλάσθης· καὶ ὅτε ἐπεκρότησεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς πᾶσα χεὶρ, καὶ ὅτε ἐπανεπαύσαντο ἐπὶ σέ, συνετρίβης, καὶ συνέκλασας αὐτῶν πᾶσαν ὀσφύν.
8Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and will cut off from thee man and beast.
8Διατοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐπὶ σὲ ῥομφαίαν, καὶ ἀπολῶ ἀπὸ σοῦ ἀνθρώπους καὶ κτήνη,
9And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste, and they shall know that I am the LORD; because he hath said: The river is mine, and I have made it.
9καὶ ἔσται ἡ γῆ Αἰγύπτου ἀπώλεια καὶ ἔρημος· καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος· ἀντὶ τοῦ λέγειν σε, οἱ ποταμοὶ ἐμοί εἰσι, καὶ ἐγὼ ἐποίησα αὐτοὺς,
10Therefore, behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from Migdol to Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
10Διατοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπὶ σὲ, καὶ ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς ποταμούς σου, καὶ δώσω γῆν Αἰγύπτου εἰς ἔρημον καὶ ῥομφαίαν καὶ ἀπώλειαν ἀπὸ Μαγδωλοῦ καὶ Συήνης καὶ ἕως ὁρίων Αἰθιόπων.
11No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
11Οὐ μὴ διέλθῃ ἐν αὐτῇ ποὺς ἀνθρώπου, καὶ ποὺς κτήνους οὐ μὴ διέλθῃ αὐτὴν, καὶ οὐ κατοικηθήσεται τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη.
12And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
12Καὶ δώσω τὴν γῆν αὐτῆς ἀπώλειαν ἐν μέσῳ γῆς ἠρημωμένης, καὶ αἱ πόλεις αὐτῆς ἐν μέσῳ πόλεων ἠρημωμένων ἔσονται τεσσεράκοντα ἔτη· καὶ διασπερῶ Αἴγυπτον ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ λικμήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς χώρας.
13For thus saith the Lord GOD: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered;
13Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, μετὰ τεσσεράκοντα ἔτη συνάξω Αἰγυπτίους ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνῶν οὗ διεσκορπίσθησαν ἐκεῖ,
14and I will turn the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their origin; and they shall be there a lowly kingdom.
14καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων, καὶ κατοικίσω αὐτοὺς ἐν γῇ Φαθωρῆς, ἐν τῇ γῇ ὅθεν ἐλήμφθησαν, καὶ ἔσται ἀρχὴ ταπεινὴ
15It shall be the lowliest of the kingdoms, neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations; and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
15παρὰ πάσας τὰς ἀρχάς· οὐ μὴ ὑψωθῇ ἔτι ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη· καὶ ὀλιγοστοὺς αὐτοὺς ποιήσω, τοῦ μὴ εἶναι αὐτοὺς πλείονας ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι.
16And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn after them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.'
16Καὶ οὐκέτι ἔσονται τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ εἰς ἐλπίδα ἀναμιμνήσκουσαν ἀνομίαν, ἐν τῷ ἀκολουθῆσαι αὐτοὺς ὀπίσω ἀυτῶν, καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος.
17And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
17Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἑβδόμῳ καὶ εἰκοστῷ ἔτει, μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ πρώτου, ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων,
18'Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre; every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it;
18Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος κατεδουλώσατο τὴν δύναμιν αὐτοῦ δουλείᾳ μεγάλῃ ἐπὶ Τύρου, πᾶσα κεφαλὴ φαλακρὰ, καὶ πᾶς ὦμος μαδῶν· καὶ μισθὸς οὐκ ἐγενήθη αὐτῷ καὶ τῇ δυνάμει αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Τύρον, καὶ τῆς δουλείας ἧς ἐδούλευσαν ἐπʼ αὐτήν.
19Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her abundance, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
19Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δίδωμι τῷ Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος γῆν Αἰγύπτου, καὶ προνομεύσει τὴν προνομὴν αὐτῆς, καὶ σκυλεύσει τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῆς· καὶ ἔσται μισθὸς τῇ δυνάμει αὐτοῦ,
20I have given him the land of Egypt as his hire for which he served, because they wrought for Me, saith the Lord GOD.
20ἀντὶ τῆς λειτουργίας αὐτοῦ ἧς ἐδούλευσεν ἐπὶ Τύρον, δέδωκα αὐτῷ γῆν Αἰγύπτου· τάδε λέγει Κύριος Κύριος.
21In that day will I cause a horn to shoot up unto the house of Israel, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'
21Ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀνατελεῖ κέρας παντὶ τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ σοὶ δώσω στόμα ἀνεῳγμένον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος.
