| Douay-Rheims | Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587) | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Behold a king shall reign in justice, and princes shell rule in judgment. | Ἰδοὺ γὰρ βασιλεὺς δίκαιος βασιλεύσει, καὶ ἄρχοντες μετὰ κρίσεως ἄρξουσι. |
| 2 | And a man shall be as when one is hid from the wind, and hideth himself from a storm, as rivers of waters in drought, and the shadow of a rock that standeth out in a desert land. | Καὶ ἔσται ὁ ἄνθρωπος κρύπτων τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ, καὶ κρυβήσεται, ὡς ἀφʼ ὕδατος φερομένου· καὶ φανήσεται ἐν Σειὼν ὡς ποταμὸς φερόμενος ἔνδοξος ἐν γῇ διψώσῃ. |
| 3 | The eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken diligently. | Καὶ οὐκέτι ἔσονται πεποιθότες ἐπʼ ἀνθρώποις, ἀλλὰ τὰ ὦτα ἀκούειν δώσουσι. |
| 4 | And the heart of fools shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of stammerers shall speak readily and plain. | Καὶ ἡ καρδία τῶν ἀσθενούντων προσέξει τῷ ἀκούειν, καὶ αἱ γλῶσσαι αἱ ψελλίζουσαι ταχὺ μαθήσονται λαλεῖν εἰρήνην. |
| 5 | The fool shall no more be called prince: neither shall the deceitful be called great: | Καὶ οὐκέτι μὴ εἴπωσι τῷ μωρῷ ἄρχειν, καὶ οὐκέτι μὴ εἴπωσιν οἱ ὑπηρέται σου, σίγα. |
| 6 | For the fool will speak foolish things, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and speak to the Lord deceitfully, and to make empty the soul of the hungry, and take away drink from the thirsty. | Ὁ γὰρ μωρὸς μωρὰ λαλήσει, καὶ ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ μάταια νοήσει, τοῦ συντελεῖν ἄνομα, καὶ λαλεῖν πρὸς Κύριον πλάνησιν, τοῦ διασπεῖραι ψυχὰς πεινώσας, καὶ τὰς ψυχὰς τὰς διψώσας κενὰς ποιήσει. |
| 7 | The vessels of the deceitful are most wicked: for he hath framed devices to destroy the meek, with lying words, when the poor man speaketh judgment. | Ἡ γὰρ βουλὴ τῶν πονηρῶν ἄνομα βουλεύσεται, καταφθεῖραι ταπεινοὺς ἐν λόγοις ἀδίκοις, καὶ διασκεδάσαι λόγους ταπεινῶν ἐν κρίσει. |
| 8 | But the prince will devise such things as are worthy of a prince, and he shall stand above the rulers. | Οἱ δὲ εὐσεβεῖς συνετὰ ἐβουλεύσαντο, καὶ αὕτη ἡ βουλὴ μενεῖ. |
| 9 | Rise up, ye rich women, and hear my voice: ye confident daughters, give ear to my speech. | Γυναῖκες πλούσιαι ἀνάστητε, καὶ ἀκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς μου· θυγατέρες ἐν ἐλπίδι εἰσακούσατε λόγους μου. |
| 10 | For after days and a year, you that are confident shall be troubled: for the vintage is at an end, the gathering shall come no more. | Ἡμέρας ἐνιαυτοῦ μνείαν ποιήσασθε ἐν ὀδύνῃ μετʼ ἐλπίδος· ἀνήλωται ὁ τρυγητὸς, πέπαυται, οὐκέτι μὴ ἔλθῃ. |
| 11 | Be astonished, ye rich women, be troubled, ye confident ones: strip yen, and be confounded, gird your loins. | Ἔκστητε, λυπήθητε αἱ πεποιθυῖαι, ἐκδύσασθε, γυμναὶ γένεσθε, περιζώσασθε τὰς ὀσφῦας, |
| 12 | Mourn for your breasts, for the delightful country, for the fruitful vineyard. | καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν μαστῶν κόπτεσθε, ἀπὸ ἀγροῦ ἐπιθυμήματος, καὶ ἀμπέλου γεννήματος. |
| 13 | Upon the land of my people shall thorns and briers come up: how much more upon all the houses of joy, of the city that rejoiced? | Ἡ γῆ τοῦ λαοῦ μου, ἄκανθα καὶ χόρτος ἀναβήσεται, καὶ ἐκ πάσης οἰκίας εὐφροσύνη ἀρθήσεται. |
| 14 | For the house is forsaken, the multitude of the city is left, darkness and obscurity are come upon its dens for ever. A joy of wild asses, the pastures of flocks, | Πόλις πλουσία, οἶκοι ἐγκαταλελειμμένοι πλοῦτον πόλεως ἀφήσουσιν, οἴκους ἐπιθυμήματος· καὶ ἔσονται αἱ κῶμαι σπήλαια ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος, εὐφροσύνη ὄνων ἀγρίων, βοσκήματα ποιμένων, |
| 15 | Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high: and the desert shall be as a charmel, and charmel shall be counted for a forest. | ἕως ἂν ἔλθῃ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς πνεῦμα ἀφʼ ὑψηλοῦ· καὶ ἔσται ἔρημος ὁ Χέρμελ, καὶ ὁ Χέρμελ εἰς δρυμὸν λογισθήσεται. |
| 16 | And judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and justice shall sit in charmel. | Καὶ ἀναπαύσεται ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ κρίμα, καὶ δικαιοσύνη ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ κατοικήσει. |
| 17 | And the work of justice shall be peace, and the service of justice quietness, and security for ever. | Καὶ ἔσται τὰ ἔργα τῆς δικαιοσύνης, εἰρήνη· καὶ κρατήσει ἡ δικαιοσύνη ἀνάπαυσιν, καὶ πεποιθότες ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος. |
| 18 | And my people shall sit in the beauty of peace, and in the tabernacles of confidence, and in wealthy rest. | Καὶ κατοικήσει ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει εἰρήνης, καὶ ἐνοικήσει πεποιθὼς, καὶ ἀναπαύσονται μετὰ πλούτου. |
| 19 | But hail shall be in the descent of the forest, and the city shall be made very low. | Ἡ δὲ χάλαζα ἐὰν καταβῇ, οὐκ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἥξει· καὶ ἔσονται οἱ ἐνοικοῦντες ἐν τοῖς δρυμοῖς πεποιθότες, ὡς οἱ ἐν τῷ πεδινῇ. |
| 20 | Blessed are ye that sow upon all waters, sending thither the foot of the ox and the ass. | Μακάριοι οἱ σπείροντες ἐπὶ πᾶν ὕδωρ, οὗ βοῦς καὶ ὄνος πατεῖ. |
