Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρός με ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ ἐνάτῳ, ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δεκάτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνός, λέγων·
2“Son of man, write the name of the day, this same day. The king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.
2υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, γράψον σεαυτῷ εἰς ἡμέραν ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, ἀφ' ἧς ἀπηρείσατο βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ, ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας τῆς σήμερον,
3Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says, “Put the cauldron on the fire. Put it on, and also pour water into it.
3καὶ εἰπὸν ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν παραπικραίνοντα παραβολὴν καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς· τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἐπίστησον τὸν λέβητα καὶ ἔγχεον εἰς αὐτὸν ὕδωρ
4Gather its pieces into it, even every good piece: the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with the choice bones.
4καὶ ἔμβαλε εἰς αὐτὸν τὰ διχοτομήματα, πᾶν διχοτόμημα καλόν, σκέλος καὶ ὦμον ἐκσεσαρκισμένα ἀπὸ τῶν ὀστῶν
5Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the cauldron. Make it boil well. Yes, let its bones be boiled within it.”
5ἐξ ἐπιλέκτων κτηνῶν εἰλημμένων καὶ ὑπόκαιε τὰ ὀστᾶ ὑποκάτω αὐτῶν· ἔζεσεν ἔζεσε, καὶ ἥψηται τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτῆς ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς.
6“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Woe to the bloody city, to the cauldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust hasn’t gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece without casting lots for it.
6διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ὦ πόλις αἱμάτων, λέβης ἐν ᾧ ἐστιν ἰὸς ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ ὁ ἰὸς οὐκ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ αὐτῆς· κατὰ μέλος αὐτῆς ἐξήνεγκεν, οὐκ ἔπεσεν ἐπ' αὐτὴν κλῆρος.
7“‘“For the blood she shed is in the middle of her. She set it on the bare rock. She didn’t pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.
7ὅτι αἷμα αὐτῆς ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς ἐστιν, ἐπὶ λεωπετρίαν τέταχα αὐτό. οὐκ ἐκκέχυκα αὐτὸ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τοῦ καλύψαι ἐπ' αὐτὸ γῆν·
8That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.”
8τοῦ ἀναβῆναι θυμὸν εἰς ἐκδίκησιν ἐκδικηθῆναι δέδωκα τὸ αἷμα αὐτῆς ἐπὶ λεωπετρίαν τοῦ μὴ καλύψαι αὐτό.
9“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.
9διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος· κἀγὼ μεγαλυνῶ τὸν δαλὸν
10Heap on the wood. Make the fire hot. Boil the meat well. Make the broth thick, and let the bones be burned.
10καὶ πληθυνῶ τὰ ξύλα καὶ ἀνακαύσω τὸ πῦρ, ὅπως τακῇ τὰ κρέα καὶ ἐλαττωθῇ ὁ ζωμὸς
11Then set it empty on its coals, that it may be hot, and its bronze may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, that its rust may be consumed.
11καὶ στῇ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἄνθρακας, ὅπως προσκαυθῇ καὶ θερμανθῇ ὁ χαλκὸς αὐτῆς καὶ τακῇ ἐν μέσῳ ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐκλίπῃ ὁ ἰὸς αὐτῆς,
12She is weary with toil; yet her great rust, rust by fire, doesn’t leave her.
12καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐξέλθῃ ἐξ αὐτῆς πολὺς ὁ ἰὸς αὐτῆς, καταισχυνθήσεται ὁ ἰὸς αὐτῆς,
13“‘“In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed you and you weren’t cleansed, you won’t be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.
13ἀνθ' ὧν ἐμιαίνου σύ. καὶ τί ἐὰν μὴ καθαρισθῇς ἔτι, ἕως οὗ ἐμπλήσω τὸν θυμόν μου;
14“‘“I, the LORD, have spoken it. It will happen, and I will do it. I won’t go back. I won’t spare. I won’t repent. According to your ways and according to your doings, they will judge you,” says the Lord GOD.’”
14ἐγὼ Κύριος λελάληκα, καὶ ἥξει, καὶ ποιήσω, οὐ διαστελῶ οὐδὲ μὴ ἐλεήσω· κατὰ τὰς ὁδούς σου, καὶ κατὰ τὰ ἐνθυμήματά σου κρινῶ σε, λέγει Κύριος. διὰ τοῦτο ἐγὼ κρινῶ σε κατὰ τὰ αἵματά σου καὶ κατὰ τὰ ἐνθυμήματά σου κρινῶ σε, ἡ ἀκάθαρτος, ἡ ὀνομαστὴ καὶ πολλὴ τοῦ παραπικραίνειν.
15Also the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
15Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρός με λέγων·
16“Son of man, behold, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with one stroke; yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
16υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ λαμβάνω ἐκ σοῦ τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν σου ἐν παρατάξει· οὐ μὴ κοπῇς οὐδ' οὐ μὴ κλαυσθῇς.
17Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind your headdress on you, and put your sandals on your feet. Don’t cover your lips, and don’t eat mourner’s bread.”
17στεναγμὸς αἵματος, ὀσφύος, πένθους ἐστίν· οὐκ ἔσται τὸ τρίχωμά σου συμπεπλεγμένον ἐπὶ σὲ καὶ τὰ ὑποδήματά σου ἐν τοῖς ποσί σου, οὐ μὴ παρακληθῇς ἐν χείλεσιν αὐτῶν καὶ ἄρτον ἀνδρῶν οὐ μὴ φάγῃς.
18So I spoke to the people in the morning, and at evening my wife died. So I did in the morning as I was commanded.
18καὶ ἐλάλησα πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τὸ πρωΐ, ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατό μοι, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἡ γυνή μου ἑσπέρας, καὶ ἐποίησα τὸ πρωΐ ὃν τρόπον ἐπετάγη μοι.
19The people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things mean to us, that you act like this?”
19καὶ εἶπε πρός με ὁ λαός· οὐκ ἀναγγελεῖς ἡμῖν τί ἐστι ταῦτα, ἃ σὺ ποιεῖς;
20Then I said to them, “The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
20καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτούς· λόγος Κυρίου ἐγένετο πρός με λέγων·
21‘Speak to the house of Israel, “The Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind will fall by the sword.
21εἰπὸν πρὸς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Ἰσραήλ· τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ βεβηλῶ τὰ ἅγιά μου, φρύαγμα ἰσχύος ὑμῶν, ἐπιθυμήματα ὀφθαλμῶν ὑμῶν, καὶ ὑπὲρ ὧν φείδονται αἱ ψυχαὶ ὑμῶν· καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ὑμῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες ὑμῶν, οὓς ἐγκατελίπετε, ἐν ρομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται.
22You will do as I have done. You won’t cover your lips or eat mourner’s bread.
22καὶ ποιήσετε ὃν τρόπον πεποίηκα· ἀπὸ στόματος αὐτῶν οὐ παρακληθήσεσθε καὶ ἄρτον ἀνδρῶν οὐ φάγεσθε,
23Your turbans will be on your heads, and your sandals on your feet. You won’t mourn or weep; but you will pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.
23καὶ αἱ κόμαι ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς ὑμῶν, καὶ τὰ ὑποδήματα ὑμῶν ἐν τοῖς ποσὶν ὑμῶν· οὔτε μὴ κόψησθε οὔτε μὴ κλαύσητε, καὶ ἐντακήσεσθε ἐν ταῖς ἀδικίαις ὑμῶν καὶ παρακαλέσετε ἕκαστος τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ.
24Thus Ezekiel will be a sign to you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When this comes, then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’”’”
24καὶ ἔσται Ἰεζεκιὴλ ὑμῖν εἰς τέρας· κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησα, ποιήσετε, ὅταν ἔλθῃ ταῦτα· καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος.
25“You, son of man, shouldn’t it be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart—their sons and their daughters—
25Καὶ σὺ υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, οὐχὶ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, ὅταν λαμβάνων τὴν ἰσχὺν παρ' αὐτῶν, τὴν ἔπαρσιν τῆς καυχήσεως αὐτῶν, τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν ἔπαρσιν ψυχῆς αὐτῶν, υἱοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ θυγατέρας αὐτῶν,
26that in that day he who escapes will come to you, to cause you to hear it with your ears?
26ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἥξει ὁ ἀνασῳζόμενος πρὸς σὲ τοῦ ἀναγγεῖλαί σοι εἰς τὰ ὦτα;
27In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you will speak and be no more mute. So you will be a sign to them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
27ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ διανοιχθήσεται τὸ στόμα σου πρὸς τὸν ἀνασῳζόμενον καὶ λαλήσεις καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποκωφωθῇς οὐκέτι· καὶ ἔσῃ αὐτοῖς εἰς τέρας, καὶ ἐπιγνώσονται διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος.
