Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Οὐαὶ τοῖς ἐξουθενοῦσι Σιὼν, καὶ τοῖς πεποιθόσιν ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος Σαμαρείας, ἀπετρύγησαν ἀρχὰς ἐθνῶν, καὶ εἰσῆλθον αὐτοί. οἶκος τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ
1Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and to them that are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!
2διάβητε πάντες καὶ ἴδετε, καὶ διέλθατε ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Ἐματραββὰ, καὶ κατάβητε ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Γὲθ ἀλλοφύλων, τὰς κρατίστας ἐκ πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τούτων, εἰ πλείονα τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν ἐστι τῶν ὑμετέρων ὁρίων.
2Pass ye unto Calneh, and see, and from thence go ye to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines; are they better than these kingdoms? or is their border greater than your border?
3Οἱ ἐρχόμενοι εἰς ἡμέραν κακὴν, οἱ ἐγγίζοντες καὶ ἐφαπτόμενοι σαββάτων ψευδῶν,
3Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
4οἱ καθεύδοντες ἐπὶ κλινῶν ἐλεφαντίνων, καὶ κατασπαταλῶντες ἐπὶ ταῖς στρωμναῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔσθοντες ἐρίφους ἐκ ποιμνίων, καὶ μοσχάρια ἐκ μέσου βουκολίων γαλαθηνὰ,
4That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
5οἱ ἐπικροτοῦντες πρὸς τὴν φωνὴν τῶν ὀργάνων, ὡς ἑστηκότα ἐλογίσαντο, καὶ οὐχ ὡς φεύγοντα,
5That thrum on the psaltery, that devise for themselves instruments of music, like David;
6οἱ πίνοντες τὸν διυλισμένον οἶνον, καὶ τὰ πρῶτα μῦρα χριόμενοι, καὶ οὐκ ἔπασχον οὐδὲν ἐπὶ τῇ συντριβῇ Ἰωσήφ.
6That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments; but they are not grieved for the hurt of Joseph.
7Διὰ τοῦτο νῦν αἰχμάλωτοι ἔσονται ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς δυναστῶν, καὶ ἐξαρθήσεται χρεμετισμὸς ἵππων ἐξ Ἐφραίμ·
7Therefore now shall they go captive at the head of them that go captive, and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.
8Ὅτι ὤμοσε Κύριος καθʼ ἑαυτοῦ, διότι βδελύσσομαι ἐγὼ πᾶσαν τὴν ὕβριν Ἰακὼβ, καὶ τὰς χώρας αὐτοῦ μεμίσηκα, καὶ ἐξαρῶ πόλιν σὺν πᾶσι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν αὐτήν.
8The Lord GOD hath sworn by Himself, saith the LORD, the God of hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will deliver up the city with all that is therein.
9Καὶ ἔσται, ἐὰν ὑπολειφθῶσι δέκα ἄνδρες ἐν οἰκίᾳ μιᾷ, καὶ ἀποθανοῦνται, καὶ ὑπολειφθήσονται οἱ κατάλοιποι,
9And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
10καὶ λήψονται οἱ οἰκεῖοι αὐτῶν, καὶ παραβιῶνται τοῦ ἐξενέγκαι τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτῶν ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου· καὶ ἐρεῖ τοῖς προεστηκόσι τῆς οἰκίας, εἰ ἔτι ὑπάρχει παρὰ σοί; Καὶ ἐρεῖ, οὐκ ἔτι· καὶ ἐρεῖ, σίγα ἕνεκα τοῦ μὴ ὀνομάσαι τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου.
10And when a man's uncle shall take him up, even he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is in the innermost parts of the house: 'Is there yet any with thee?' and he shall say: 'No'; then shall he say: 'Hold thy peace; for we must not make mention of the name of the LORD.'
11Διότι ἰδοὺ Κύριος ἐντέλλεται, καὶ πατάξει τὸν οἶκον τὸν μέγαν θλάσμασι, καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν μικρὸν ῥάγμασιν.
11For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and the great house shall be smitten into splinters, and the little house into chips.
12Εἰ διώξονται ἐν πέτραις ἵπποι; εἰ παρασιωπήσονται ἐν θηλείαις; ὅτι ἐξεστρέψατε εἰς θυμὸν κρίμα, καὶ καρπὸν δικαιοσύνης εἰς πικρίαν,
12Do horses run upon the rocks? Doth one plow there with oxen? that ye have turned justice into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;
13οἱ εὐφραινόμενοι ἐπʼ οὐδενὶ λόγῳ, οἱ λέγοντες, οὐκ ἐν τῃ ἰσχύϊ ἡμῶν ἔσχομεν κέρατα;
13Ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say: 'Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?'
14Διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπεγερῶ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς οἶκος Ἰσραὴλ ἔθνος, λέγει Κύριος τῶν δυνάμεων, καὶ ἐκθλίψουσιν ὑμᾶς τοῦ μὴ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς Αἰμὰθ, καὶ ὡς τοῦ χειμάῤῥου τῶν δυσμῶν.
14For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of the Arabah.
