| 1 | The words of Jeremias the son of Helcias, of the priests that were in Anathoth, in the land of Benjamin. | ΤΟ ῥῆμα τοῦ Θεοῦ ὃ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ Ἱερεμίαν τὸν του Χελκίου, ἐκ τῶν ἱερέων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν Ἀναθὼθ ἐν γῇ Βενιαμὶν, |
| 2 | The word of the Lord which came to him in the days of Josias the son of Amon king of Juda, in the thirteenth year of his reign. | ὡς ἐγενήθη λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ πρὸς αὐτὸν, ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἰωσία υἱοῦ Ἀμὼς βασιλέως Ἰούδα, ἔτους τρισκαιδεκάτου ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ. |
| 3 | And which came to him in the days of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, unto the end of the eleventh year of Sedecias the son of Josias king of Juda, even unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive, in the fifth month. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἰωακεὶμ υἱοῦ Ἰωσία βασιλέως Ἰούδα, ἕως ἑνδεκάτου ἔτους τοῦ Σεδεκία υἱοῦ Ἰωσία βασιλέως Ἰούδα, ἕως τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ μηνί. |
| 4 | And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς αὐτόν· |
| 5 | Before I formed thee in the bowels of thy mother, I knew thee: and before thou camest forth out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and made thee a prophet unto the nations. | Πρὸ τοῦ με πλάσαι σε ἐν κοιλίᾳ, ἐπίσταμαί σε, καὶ πρὸ τοῦ σε ἐξελθεῖν ἐκ μήτρας, ἡγίακά σε, προφήτην εἰς ἔθνη τέθεικά σε. |
| 6 | And I said: Ah, ah, ah, Lord God: behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child. | Καὶ εἶπα, ὁ ὢν δέσποτα, Κύριε, ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἐπίσταμαι λαλεῖν, ὅτι νεώτερος ἐγώ εἰμι. |
| 7 | And the Lord said to me: Say not: I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee: and whatsoever I shall command thee, thou shalt speak. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, μὴ λέγε, ὅτι νεώτερος ἐγώ εἰμι, ὅτι πρὸς πάντας οὓς ἐὰν ἐξαποστείλω σε, πορεύσῃ, καὶ κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν ἐντείλωμαί σοι, λαλήσεις. |
| 8 | Be not afraid at their presence: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. | Μὴ φοβηθῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, ὅτι μετὰ σοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι τοῦ ἐξαιρεῖσθαί σε, λέγει Κύριος. |
| 9 | And the Lord put forth his hand, and touched my mouth: and the Lord said to me: Behold I have given my words in thy mouth: | Καὶ ἐξέτεινε Κύριος τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ πρὸς μὲ, καὶ ἥψατο τοῦ στόματός μου, καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, ἰδοὺ δέδωκα τοὺς λόγους μου εἰς τὸ στόμα σου. |
| 10 | Lo, I have set thee this day over the nations, and over the kingdoms, to root up, and pull down, and to waste, and to destroy, and to build, and to plant. | Ἰδοὺ καθέστακά σε σήμερον ἐπὶ ἔθνη καὶ ἐπὶ βασιλείας, ἐκριζοῦν, καὶ κατασκάπτειν, καὶ ἀπολύειν, καὶ ἀνοικοδομεῖν, καὶ καταφυτεύειν. |
| 11 | And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: What seest thou, Jeremias? And I said: I see a rod watching. | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων, τί σὺ ὁρᾷς; καὶ εἶπα, βακτηρίαν καρυΐνην. |
| 12 | And the Lord said to me: Thou hast seen well: for I will watch over my word to perform it. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, καλῶς ἑώρακας, διότι ἐγρήγορα ἐγὼ ἐπὶ τοὺς λόγους μου τοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτούς. |
| 13 | And the word of the Lord came to me a second time, saying: What seest thou? I see a boiling caldron, and the face thereof from the face of the north. | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου ἐκ δευτέρου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων, τί σὺ ὁρᾷς; καὶ εἶπα, λέβητα ὑποκαιόμενον, καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ προσώπου Βοῤῥᾶ. |
| 14 | And the Lord said to me: from the north shall an evil break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, ἀπὸ προσώπου Βοῤῥᾶ ἐκκαυθήσεται τὰ κακὰ ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν. |
| 15 | For behold I will call together all the families of the kingdoms of the north: saith the Lord: and they shall come, and shall set every one his throne in the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and upon all the walls thereof round about, and upon all the cities of Juda, | Διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ συγκαλῶ πάσας τὰς βασιλείας τῆς γῆς ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ, λέγει Κύριος· καὶ ἥξουσι καὶ θήσουσιν ἕκαστος τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῶν πυλῶν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ τείχη τὰ κύκλῳ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐπὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα. |
| 16 | And I will pronounce my judgements against them, touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have sacrificed to strange gods, and have adored the work of their own hands. | Καὶ λαλήσω πρὸς αὐτοὺς μετὰ κρίσεως, περὶ πάσης τῆς κακίας αὐτῶν, ὡς ἐγκατέλιπόν με, καὶ ἔθυσαν θεοῖς ἀλλοτρίοις, καὶ προσεκύνησαν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν. |
| 17 | Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command thee. Be not afraid at their presence: for I will make thee not to fear their countenance. | Καὶ σὺ περίζωσαι τὴν ὀσφύν σου, καὶ ἀνάστηθι, καὶ εἰπὸ πάντα ὅσα ἄν ἐντείλωμαί σοι· μὴ φοβηθῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, μηδὲ πτοηθῇς ἐναντίον αὐτῶν, ὅτι μετὰ σοῦ εἰμι, τοῦ ἐξαιρεῖσθαί σε, λέγει Κύριος. |
| 18 | For behold I have made thee this day a fortified city, and a pillar of iron, and a wall of brass, over all the land, to the kings of Juda, to the princes thereof, and to the priests, and to the people of the land. | Ἰδοὺ τέθεικά σε ἐν τῇ σήμερον ἡμέρᾳ ὡς πόλιν ὀχυρὰν καὶ ὡς τεῖχος χαλκοῦν, ὀχυρὸν πᾶσι τοῖς βασιλεύσιν Ἰούδα, καὶ τοῖς ἄρχουσιν αὐτοῦ, καὶ τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς. |
| 19 | And they shall fight against thee, and shall not prevail: for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee. | Καὶ πολεμήσουσί σε, καὶ οὐ μὴ δύνωνται πρὸς σὲ διότι μετὰ σοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι, τοῦ ἐξαιρεῖσθαί σε, εἶπε Κύριος. |
