1In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word from the LORD, saying:
2ΤΗ ΑΙΓΥΠΤΩ ἘΠΙ ΔΥΝΑΜΙΝ ΦΑΡΑΩ ΝΕΧΑΩ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΙΓΥΠΤΟΥ, ὃς ἦν ἐπὶ τῷ ποταμῷ Εὐφράτῃ ἐν Χαρμεὶς, ὃν ἐπάταξε Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος, ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τετάρτῳ Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα.
2'Thus saith the LORD: Stand in the court of the LORD'S house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the LORD'S house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word.
3Ἀναλάβετε ὅπλα καὶ ἀσπίδας, καὶ προσαγάγετε εἰς πόλεμον,
3It may be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way; that I may repent Me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
4καὶ ἐπισάξατε τοὺς ἵππους, ἐπίβητε οἱ ἱππεῖς, καὶ κατάστητε ἐν ταῖς περικεφαλαίαις ὑμῶν, προσβάλετε τὰ δόρατα, καὶ ἐνδύσασθε τοὺς θώρακας ὑμῶν.
4And thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the LORD: If ye will not hearken to Me, to walk in My law, which I have set before you,
5Τί ὅτι αὐτοὶ πτοοῦνται, καὶ ἀποχωροῦσιν εἰς τὸ ὀπίσω; διότι οἱ ἰσχυροὶ αὐτῶν κοπήσονται, φυγῇ ἔφυγον, καὶ οὐκ ἀνέστρεψαν περιεχόμενοι κυκλόθεν, λέγει Κύριος.
5to hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I send unto you, even sending them betimes and often, but ye have not hearkened;
6Μὴ φευγέτω ὁ κοῦφος, καὶ μὴ ἀνασωζέσθω ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ἐπὶ Βοῤῥᾶν· τὰ παρὰ τὸν Εὐφράτην ἠσθένησε, καὶ πεπτώκασι.
6then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.'
7Τίς οὗτος ὡς ποταμὸς ἀναβήσεται, καὶ ὡς ποταμοὶ κυμαίνουσιν ὕδωρ;
7So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD.
8Ὕδατα Αἰγύπτου ὡς ποταμὸς ἀναβήσεται· καὶ εἶπεν, ἀναβήσομαι, καὶ κατακαλύψω τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἀπολῶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν αὐτῇ.
8Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold on him, saying: 'Thou shalt surely die.
9Ἐπίβητε ἐπὶ τοὺς ἵππους, παρασκευάσατε τὰ ἅρματα, ἐξέλθατε οἱ μαχηταὶ Αἰθιόπων, καὶ Λίβυες καθωπλισμένοι ὅπλοις, καὶ Λυδοὶ ἀνάβητε, ἐντείνατε τόξον.
9Why hast thou prophesied in the name of the LORD, saying: This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, without an inhabitant?' And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
10Καὶ ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν ἡμέρα ἐκδικήσεως, τοῦ ἐκδικῆσαι τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ· καὶ καταφάγεται ἡ μάχαιρα Κυρίου, καὶ ἐμπλησθήσεται, καὶ μεθυσθήσεται ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτῶν, ὅτι θυσία τῷ Κυρίῳ ἀπὸ γῆς Βοῤῥᾶ ἐπὶ ποταμῷ Εὐφράτῃ.
10When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king's house unto the house of the LORD; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of the LORD'S house.
11Ἀνάβηθι Γαλαὰδ, καὶ λάβε ῥητίνην τῇ παρθένῳ θυγατρὶ Αἰγύπτου· εἰς τὸ κενὸν ἐπλήθυνας ἰάματά σου, ὠφέλεια οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν σοί.
11Then spoke the priests and the prophets unto the princes and to all the people, saying: 'This man is worthy of death; for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
12Ἤκουσαν ἔθνη φωνήν σου, καὶ τῆς κραυγῆς σου ἐπλήσθη ἡ γῆ, ὅτι μαχητὴς πρὸς μαχητὴν ἠσθένησαν, ἐπιτοαυτὸ ἔπεσαν ἀμφότεροι.
12Then spoke Jeremiah unto all the princes and to all the people, saying: 'The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that ye have heard.
13Ἃ ἘΛΑΛΗΣΕ ΚΥΡΙΟΣ ἐν χειρὶ Ἱερεμίου, τοῦ ἐλθεῖν τὸν βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος τοῦ κόψαι γῆν Αἰγύπτου.
13Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the LORD your God; and the LORD will repent Him of the evil that He hath pronounced against you.
14Ἀναγγείλατε εἰς Μαγδωλὸν, καὶ παραγγείλατε εἰς Μέμφιν· εἴπατε, ἐπίστηθι, καὶ ἑτοίμασον, ὅτι κατέφαγε μάχαιρα τὴν σμίλακά σου.
14But as for me, behold, I am in your hand; do with me as is good and right in your eyes.
15Διατί ἔφυγεν ἀπὸ σοῦ ὁ Ἄπις; ὁ μόσχος ὁ ἐκλεκτός σου οὐκ ἔμεινεν· ὅτι Κύριος παρέλυσεν αὐτόν.
15Only know ye for certain that, if ye put me to death, ye will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof; for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.'
16Καὶ τὸ πλῆθός σου ἠσθένησε, καὶ ἔπεσε· καὶ ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἐλάλει, ἀναστῶμεν, καὶ ἀναστρέψωμεν πρὸς τὸν λαὸν ἡμῶν εἰς τὴν πατρίδα ἡμῶν, ἀπὸ προσώπου μαχαίρας Ἑλληνικῆς.
16Then said the princes and all the people unto the priests and to the prophets: 'This man is not worthy of death; for he hath spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God.'
17Καλέσατε τὸ ὄνομα Φαραὼ Νεχαὼ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου, Σαὼν ἑσβειὲ μωήδ.
17Then rose up certain of the elders of the land, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying:
18Ζῶ ἐγὼ, λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς, ὅτι ὡς τὸ Ἰταβύριον ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσι, καὶ ὡς ὁ Κάρμηλος ὁ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ, ἥξει.
18'Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
19Σκεύη ἀποικισμοῦ ποίησον σεαυτῇ κατοικοῦσα θύγατερ Αἰγύπτου, ὅτι Μέμφις εἰς ἀφανισμὸν ἔσται, καὶ κληθήσεται Οὐαὶ, διὰ τὸ μὴ ὑπάρχειν κατοικοῦντας ἐν αὐτῇ.
19Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death? did he not fear the LORD, and entreat the favour of the LORD, and the LORD repented Him of the evil which He had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our own souls.'
20Δάμαλις κεκαλλωπισμένη Αἴγυπτος, ἀπόσπασμα ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ ἦλθεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν,
20And there was also a man that prophesied in the name of the LORD, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah;
21καὶ οἱ μισθωτοὶ αὐτῆς ἐν αὐτῇ, ὥσπερ μόσχοι σιτευτοὶ τρεφόμενοι ἐν αὐτῇ· διότι καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐπεστράφησαν, καὶ ἔφυγον ὁμοθυμαδόν· οὐκ ἔστησαν, ὅτι ἡμέρα ἀπωλείας ἦλθεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς, καὶ καιρὸς ἐκδικήσεως αὐτῶν.
21and when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt;
22Φωνὴ αὐτῶν ὡς ὄφεως συρίζοντος, ὅτι ἐν ἄμμῳ πορεύονται, ἐν ἀξίναις ἥξουσιν ἐπʼ αὐτήν·
22and Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt;
23ὡς κόπτοντες ξύλα ἐκκόψουσι τὸν δρυμὸν αὐτῆς, λέγει Κύριος, ὅτι οὐ μὴ εἰκασθῇ, ὅτι πληθύνει ὑπὲρ ἀκρίδα, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῖς ἀριθμός.
23and they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the children of the people.
24Κατῃσχύνθη ἡ θυγάτηρ Αἰγύπτου, παρεδόθη εἰς χεῖρας λαοῦ ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ.
24Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
25Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐκδικῶ τὸν Ἀμμὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς ἐπὶ Φαραὼ, καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς πεποιθότας ἐπʼ αὐτῷ.

27Σὺ δὲ μὴ φοβηθῇς δοῦλός μου Ἰακὼβ, μηδὲ πτοηθῇς Ἰσραήλ· διότι ἐγὼ ἰδοὺ σώζων σε μακρόθεν, καὶ τὸ σπέρμα σου ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας αὐτῶν· καὶ ἀναστρέψει Ἰακὼβ, καὶ ἡσυχάσει καὶ ὑπνώσει, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ παρενοχλῶν αὐτόν.

28Μὴ φοβοῦ παῖς μου Ἰακὼβ, λέγει Κύριος, ὅτι μετὰ σοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι· ἡ ἀπτόητος καὶ τρυφερὰ παρεδόθη· ὅτι ποιήσω ἔθνει συντέλειαν ἐν παντὶ ἔθνει εἰς οὓς ἔξωσά σε ἐκεῖ, σὲ δὲ οὐ μὴ ποιήσω ἐκλιπεῖν, καὶ παιδεύσω σε εἰς κρίμα, καὶ ἀθῶον οὐκ ἀθωώσω σε.
