Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
1Τί ἐγένετό σοι, ὅτι νῦν ἀνέβητε πάντες εἰς δώματα μάταια;
2You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town, your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
2Ἐνεπλήσθη ἡ πόλις βοώντων, οἱ τραυματίαι σου οὐ τραυματίαι ἐν μαχαίραις, οὐδὲ οἱ νεκροί σου νεκροὶ πολέμων.
3All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
3Πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντές σου πεφεύγασι, καὶ οἱ ἁλόντες σκληρῶς δεδεμένοι εἰσί, καὶ οἱ ἰσχύοντες ἐν σοὶ πόῤῥω πεφεύγασι.
4Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
4Διὰ τοῦτο εἶπα, ἄφετέ με, πικρῶς κλαύσομαι· μὴ κατισχύσητε παρακαλεῖν με ἐπὶ τὸ σύντριμμα τῆς θυγατρὸς τοῦ γένους μου,
5For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity from the Lord, GOD of Armies, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”
5ὅτι ἡμέρα ταραχῆς καὶ ἀπωλείας καὶ καταπατήματος, καὶ πλάνησις παρὰ Κυρίου σαβαώθ· ἐν φάραγγι Σιὼν πλανῶνται, ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου πλανῶνται ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη.
6Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
6Οἱ δὲ Ἐλαμεῖται ἔλαβον φαρέτρας, καὶ ἀναβάται ἄνθρωποι ἐφʼ ἵππους, καὶ συναγωγὴ παρατάξεως.
7Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
7Καὶ ἔσονται αἱ ἐκλεκταὶ φάραγγές σου, πλησθήσονται ἁρμάτων, οἱ δὲ ἱππεῖς ἐμφράξουσι τὰς πύλας σου,
8He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
8καὶ ἀνακαλύψουσι τὰς πύλας Ἰούδα· καὶ ἐμβλέψονται τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἰς τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς οἴκους τῆς πόλεως·
9You saw the breaches of David’s city, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
9Καὶ ἀνακαλύψουσι τὰ κρυπτὰ τῶν οἴκων τῆς ἄκρας Δαυείδ· καὶ εἴδοσαν, ὅτι πλείους εἰσί, καὶ ὅτι ἀπέστρεψε τὸ ὕδωρ τῆς ἀρχαίας κολυμβήθρας εἰς τὴν πόλιν,
10You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
10καὶ ὅτι καθείλοσαν τοὺς οἴκους Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς ὀχυρώματα τείχους τῇ πόλει.
11You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you didn’t look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who planned it long ago.
11Καὶ ἐποιήσατε ἑαυτοῖς ὕδωρ ἀναμέσον τῶν δύο τειχῶν ἐσώτερον τῆς κολυμβήθρας τῆς ἀρχαίας, καὶ οὐκ ἐνεβλέψατε εἰς τὸν ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς ποιήσαντα αὐτὴν, καὶ τὸν κτίσαντα αὐτὴν οὐκ εἴδετε.
12In that day, the Lord, GOD of Armies, called to weeping, to mourning, to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth;
12Καὶ ἐκάλεσε Κύριος Κύριος σαβαὼθ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ κλαυθμὸν καὶ κοπετὸν, καὶ ξύρησιν καὶ ζῶσιν σάκκων,
13and behold, there is joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating meat and drinking wine: “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
13αὐτοὶ δὲ ἐποιήσαντο εὐφροσύνην καὶ ἀγαλλίαμα, σφάζοντες μόσχους, καὶ θύοντες πρόβατα, ὥστε φαγεῖν κρέατα, καὶ πιεῖν οἶνον, λέγονες, φάγωμεν καὶ πίωμεν, αὔριον γὰρ ἀποθνήσκομεν.
14The LORD of Armies revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies.
14Καὶ ἀνακεκαλυμμένα ταῦτά ἐστιν ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶ Κυρίου σαβαὼθ, ὅτι οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται ὑμῖν αὕτη ἡ ἁμαρτία, ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνητε.
15The Lord, GOD of Armies says, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
15Τάδε λέγει Κύριος σαβαὼθ, πορεύου εἰς τὸ παστοφόριον, πρὸς Σομνᾶν τὸν ταμίαν, καὶ εἰπὸν αὐτῷ,
16‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”
16τί σὺ ὧδε καὶ τί σοί ἐστιν ὧδε; ὅτι ἐλατόμησας σεαυτῷ ὧδε μνημεῖον, καὶ ἐποίησας σεαυτῷ ἐν ὑψηλῷ μνημεῖον, καὶ ἔγραψας σεαυτῷ ἐν πέτρᾳ σκηνήν;
17Behold, the LORD will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
17Ἰδοὺ δὴ Κύριος σαβαὼθ ἐκβάλλει καὶ ἐκτρίψει ἄνδρα, καὶ ἀφελεῖ τὴν στολήν σου καὶ τὸν στέφανόν σου τὸν ἔνδοξον,
18He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you disgrace of your lord’s house.
18καὶ ῥίψει σε εἰς χώραν μεγάλην καὶ ἀμέτρητον, καὶ ἐκεῖ ἀποθανῇ· καὶ θήσει τὸ ἅρμα σου τὸ καλὸν εἰς ἀτιμίαν, καὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἄρχοντός σου εἰς καταπάτημα.
19I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
19Καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσῃ ἐκ τῆς οἰκονομίας σου καὶ ἐκ τῆς στάσεώς σου.
20It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
20Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ καλέσω τὸν παῖδά μου Ἐλιακεὶμ τὸν τοῦ Χελκίου,
21and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
21καὶ ἐνδύσω αὐτὸν τὴν στολήν σου, καὶ τὸν στέφανόν σου δώσω αὐτῷ κατὰ κράτος, καὶ τὴν οἰκονομίαν σου δώσω εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔσται ὡς πατὴρ τοῖς ἐνοικοῦσιν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ τοῖς ἐνοικοῦσιν ἐν Ἰούδᾳ.
22I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
22Καὶ δώσω τὴν δόξαν Δαυεὶδ αὐτῷ, καὶ ἄρξει, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ ἀντιλέγων· καὶ δώσω αὐψῷ τὴν κλεῖδα οἴκου Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ τῷ ὢμῳ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀνοίξει, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ ἀποκλείων· καὶ κλείσει, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ ἀνοίγων.
23I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
23Καὶ στήλω αὐτὸν ἄρχοντα ἐν τόπῳ πιστῷ, καὶ ἔσται εἰς θρόνον δόξης τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ.
24They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
24Καὶ ἔσται πεποιθὼς ἐπʼ αὐτὸν πᾶς ἔνδοξος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου, καὶ ἔσονται ἐπικρεμάμενοι αὐτῷ
25“In that day,” says the LORD of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken it.”
25τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ· τάδε λέγει Κύριος σαβαὼθ, κινηθήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ ἐστηριγμένος ἐν τόπῳ πιστῷ, καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσεται, καὶ πεσεῖται, καὶ ἐξολεθρευθήσεται ἡ δόξα ἡ ἐπʼ αὐτόν, ὅτι Κύριος ἐλάλησεν. ΤΟ ῬΗΜΑ ΤΥΡΟΥ.
