| 1 | If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord, return to me: if thou wilt take away thy stumblingblocks out of my sight, thou shalt not be moved. | Si reverteris, Israël, ait Dominus, ad me convertere: si abstuleris offendicula tua a facie mea, non commoveberis. | Ἐὰν ἐπιστραφῇ Ἰσραὴλ, λέγει Κύριος, πρὸς μὲ, ἐπιστραφήσεται· καὶ ἐὰν περιέλῃ τὰ βδελύγματα αὐτοῦ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου μου εὐλαβηθῇ, |
| 2 | And thou shalt swear: As the Lord liveth, in truth, and in judgement, and in justice: and the Gentiles shall bless him, and shall praise him. | Et iurabis: Vivit Dominus in veritate, et in iudicio, et in iustitia: et benedicent eum gentes, ipsumque laudabunt. | καὶ ὀμόσῃ, ζῇ Κύριος, μετὰ ἀληθείας ἐν κρίσει καὶ ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ, καὶ εὐλογήσουσιν ἐν αὐτῷ ἔθνη, καὶ ἐν αὐτῷ αἰνέσουσι τῷ Θεῷ ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ. |
| 3 | For thus saith the Lord to the men of Juda and Jerusalem: Break up anew your fallow ground, and sow not upon thorns: | Haec enim dicit Dominus viro Iuda et Ierusalem: Novate vobis novale, et nolite serere super spinas. | Ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος τοῖς ἀνδράσιν Ἰούδα, καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, νεώσατε ἑαυτοῖς νεώματα, καὶ μὴ σπείρητε ἐπʼ ἀκάνθαις. |
| 4 | Be circumcised to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your hearts, ye men of Juda, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my indignation come forth like fire, and burn, and there be none that can quench it: because of the wickedness of your thoughts. | Circumcidimini Domino, et auferte praeputia cordium vestrorum, viri Iuda, et habitatores Ierusalem: ne forte egrediatur ut ignis indignatio mea, et succendatur, et non sit qui extinguat, propter malitiam cogitationum vestrarum. | Περιτμήθητε τῷ Θεῷ ὑμῶν, καὶ περιτέμεσθε τὴν σκληροκαρδίαν ὑμῶν ἄνδρες Ἰούδα, καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ἱερουσαλὴμ, μὴ ἐξέλθῃ ὡς πῦρ ὁ θυμός μου, καὶ ἐκκαυθήσεται, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ σβέσων, ἀπὸ προσώπου πονηρίας ἐπιτηδευμάτων ὑμῶν. |
| 5 | Declare ye in Juda, and make it heard in Jerusalem: speak, and sound with the trumpet in the land: cry aloud, and say: Assemble yourselves, and let us go into strong cities. | Annuntiate in Iuda, et in Ierusalem auditum facite: loquimini, et canite tuba in terra, clamate fortiter, et dicite: Congregamini, et ingrediamur civitates munitas. | Ἀναγγείλατε ἐν τῷ Ἰούδᾳ, καὶ ἀκουσθήτω ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ· εἴπατε, σημάνατε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς σάλπιγγι, κεκράξατε μέγα· εἴπατε, συνάχθητε, καὶ εἰσέλθωμεν εἰς τὰς πόλεις τὰς τειχήρεις. |
| 6 | Set up the standard in Sion. Strengthen yourselves, stay not: for I bring evil from the north, and great destruction. | Levate signum in Sion; confortamini, nolite stare: quia malum ego adduco ab aquilone, et contritionem magnam. | Ἀναλαβόντες φεύγετε εἰς Σιών· σπεύσατε, μὴ στῆτε, ὅτι κακὰ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἀπὸ Βοῤῥα, καὶ συντριβὴν μεγάλην. |
| 7 | The lion is come up out of his den, and the robber of nations hath roused himself: he is come forth out of his place, to make thy land desolate: thy cities shall be laid waste, remaining without an inhabitant. | Ascendit leo de cubili suo, et praedo gentium se levavit: egressus est de loco suo ut ponat terram tuam in solitudinem: civitates tuae vastabuntur, remanentes absque habitatore. | Ἀνέβη λέων ἐκ τῆς μάνδρας αὐτοῦ, ἐξολοθρεύων ἔθνη ἐξῇρε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ, τοῦ θεῖναι τὴν γῆν εἰς ἐρήμωσιν· καὶ αἱ πόλεις καθαιρεθήσονται, παρὰ τὸ μὴ κατοικεῖσθαι αὐτάς. |
| 8 | For this gird yourselves with haircloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned away from us. | Super hoc accingite vos ciliciis; plangite, et ululate: quia non est aversa ira furoris Domini a nobis. | Ἐπὶ τούτοις περιζώσασθε σάκκους, καὶ κόπτεσθε, καὶ ἀλαλάξατε, διότι οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμὸς Κυρίου ἀφʼ ὑμῶν. |
| 9 | And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord: That the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes: and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall be amazed. | Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus: peribit cor regis, et cor principum, et obstupescent sacerdotes, et prophetae consternabuntur. | Καὶ ἔσται ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, λέγει Κύριος, ἀπολεῖται ἡ καρδία τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἡ καρδία τῶν ἀρχόντων, καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐκστήσονται, καὶ οἱ προφῆται θαυμάσονται. |
| 10 | And I said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, hast thou then deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying: You shall have peace: and behold the sword reacheth even to the soul? | Et dixi: Heu! heu! heu! Domine Deus, ergone decepisti populum istum et Ierusalem, dicens: Pax erit vobis: et ecce pervenit gladius usque ad animam? | Καὶ εἶπα, ὦ δέσποτα Κύριε, ἆρά γε ἀπατῶν ἠπάτησας τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον καὶ τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, λέγων, εἰρήνη ἔσται, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἥψατο ἡ μάχαιρα ἕως τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτῶν. |
| 11 | At that time it shall be said to this people, and to Jerusalem: A burning wind is in the ways that are in the desert of the way of the daughter of my people, not to fan, nor to cleanse. | In tempore illo dicetur populo huic et Ierusalem: Ventus urens in viis quae sunt in deserto viae filiae populi mei, non ad ventilandum et ad purgandum. | Ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐροῦσι τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ καὶ τῇ Ἱερουσαλὴμ, πνεῦμα πλανήσεως ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ὁδὸς τῆς θυγατρὸς τοῦ λαοῦ μου, οὐκ εἰς καθαρὸν, οὐδʼ εἰς ἅγιον. |
| 12 | A full wind from these places shall come to me: and now I will speak my judgments with them. | Spiritus plenus ex his veniet mihi, et nunc ego loquar iudicia mea cum eis. | Πνεῦμα πληρώσεως ἥξει μοι· νῦν δὲ ἐγὼ λαλῶ κρίματά μου πρὸς αὐτούς. |
| 13 | Behold he shall come up as a cloud, and his chariots as a tempest: his horses are swifter than eagles: woe unto us, for we are laid waste. | Ecce quasi nubes ascendet, et quasi tempestas currus eius: velociores aquilis equi illius. Vae nobis, quoniam vastati sumus. | Ἰδοὺ ὡς νεφέλη ἀναβήσεται, καὶ ὡς καταιγὶς τὰ ἄρματα αὐτοῦ, κουφότεροι ἀετῶν οἱ ἵπποι αὐτοῦ· οὐαὶ ἡμῖν, ὅτι ταλαιπωροῦμεν. |
| 14 | Wash thy heart from wickedness, O Jerusalem, that thou mayst be saved: how long shall hurtful thoughts abide in thee? | Lava a malitia cor tuum, Ierusalem, ut salva fias: usquequo morabuntur in te cogitationes noxiae? | Ἀπόπλυνε ἀπὸ κακίας τὴν καρδίαν σου Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ἵνα σωθῇς· ἕως πότε ὑπάρχουσιν ἐν σοὶ διαλογισμοὶ πόνων σου; |
| 15 | For a voice of one declaring from Dan, and giving notice of the idol from mount Ephraim. | Vox enim annuntiantis a Dan, et notum facientis idolum de monte Ephraim. | Διότι φωνὴ ἀγγέλλοντος ἐκ Δὰν ἥξει, καὶ ἀκουσθήσεται πόνος ἐξ ὄρους Ἐφραίμ. |
| 16 | Say ye to the nations: Behold it is heard in Jerusalem, that guards are coming from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Juda. | Dicite gentibus: Ecce auditum est in Ierusalem custodes venire de terra longinqua, et dare super civitates Iuda vocem suam: | Ἀναμνήσατε ἔθνη, ἰδοὺ ἥκασιν· ἀναγγείλατε ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, συστροφαὶ ἔρχονται ἐκ γῆς μακρόθεν, καὶ ἔδωκαν ἐπὶ τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα φωνὴν αὐτῶν. |
| 17 | They are set round about her, as keepers of fields: because she hath provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord. | quasi custodes agrorum facti sunt super eam in gyro, quia me ad iracundiam provocavit, dicit Dominus. | Ὡς φυλάσσοντες ἀγρὸν, ἐγένοντο ἐπʼ αὐτὴν κύκλῳ, ὅτι ἐμοῦ ἠμέλησας, λέγει Κύριος. |
| 18 | They ways, and thy devices have brought these things upon thee: this is thy wickedness, because it is bitter, because it hath touched thy heart. | Viae tuae et cogitationes tuae fecerunt haec tibi: ista malitia tua, quia amara, quia tetigit cor tuum. | Αἱ ὁδοί σου καὶ τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματά σου ἐποίησαν ταῦτά σοι· αὕτη ἡ κακία σου, ὅτι πικρὰ, ὅτι ἥψατο ἕως τῆς καρδίας σου. |
| 19 | My bowels, my bowels are in pain, the senses of my heart are troubled within me, I will not hold my peace, for my soul hath heard the sound of the trumpet, the cry of battle. | Ventrem meum, ventrem meum doleo; sensus cordis mei turbati sunt in me. Non tacebo, quoniam vocem buccinae audivit anima mea, clamorem praelii. | Τὴν κοιλίαν μου, τὴν κοιλίαν μου ἀλγῶ, καὶ τὰ αἰσθητήρια τῆς καρδίας μου, μαιμάσσει ἡ ψυχή μου, σπαράσσεται ἡ καρδία μου· οὐ σιωπήσομαι, ὅτι φωνὴν σάλπιγγος ἤκουσεν ἡ ψυχή μου, κραυγὴν πολέμου |
| 20 | Destruction upon destruction is called for, and all the earth is laid waste: my tents are destroyed on a sudden, and my pavilions in a moment. | Contritio super contritionem vocata est, et vastata est omnis terra: repente vastata sunt tabernacula mea; subito pelles meae. | καὶ ταλαιπωρίας συντριμμὸν ἐπικαλεῖται, ὅτι τεταλαιπώρηκε πᾶσα ἡ γῆ, ἄφνω τεταλαιπώρηκεν ἡ σκηνὴ, διεσπάσθησαν αἱ δέῤῥεις μου. |
| 21 | How long shall I see men fleeing away, how long shall I hear the sound of the trumpet? | Usquequo videbo fugientem; audiam vocem buccinae? | Ἕως πότε ὄψομαι φεύγοντας ἀκούων φωνὴν σαλπίγγων; |
| 22 | For my foolish people have not known me: they are foolish and senseless children: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge. | Quia stultus populus meus me non cognovit: filii insipientes sunt et vecordes: sapientes sunt ut faciant mala, bene autem facere nescierunt. | Διότι οἱ ἡγούμενοι τοῦ λαοῦ μου ἐμὲ οὐκ ᾔδεισαν· υἱοὶ ἄφρονές εἰσι καὶ οὐ συνετοὶ, σοφοί εἰσι τοῦ κακοποιῆσαι, τὸ δὲ καλῶς ποιῆσαι οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν. |
| 23 | I beheld the earth, and lo it was void, and nothing: and the heavens, and there was no light in them. | Aspexi terram, et ecce vacua erat et nihili; et caelos, et non erat lux in eis. | Ἐπέβλεψα ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐθὲν, καὶ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, καὶ οὐκ ἦν τὰ φῶτα αὐτοῦ. |
| 24 | I looked upon the mountains, and behold they trembled: and all the hills were troubled. | Vidi montes, et ecce movebantur: et omnes colles conturbati sunt. | Εἶδον τὰ ὄρη, καὶ ἦν τρέμοντα, καὶ πάντας τοὺς βουνοὺς ταρασσομένους. |
| 25 | I beheld, and lo there was no man: and all the birds of the air were gone. | Intuitus sum, et non erat homo: et omne volatile caeli recessit. | Ἐπέβλεψα, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν ἄνθρωπος, καὶ πάντα τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐπτοεῖτο. |
| 26 | I looked, and behold Carmel was a wilderness: and all its cities were destroyed at the presence of the Lord, and at the presence of the wrath of his indignation. | Aspexi, et ecce Carmelus desertus, et omnes urbes eius destructae sunt a facie Domini, et a facie irae furoris eius. | Εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ Κάρμηλος ἔρημος, καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ πόλεις ἐμπεπυρισμέναι πυρὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου Κυρίου, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου ὀργῆς θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ ἠφανίσθησαν. |
| 27 | For thus saith the Lord: All the land shall be desolate, but yet I will not utterly destroy. | Haec enim dicit Dominus: Deserta erit omnis terra, sed tamen consummationem non faciam. | Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἔρημος ἔσται πᾶσα ἡ γῆ, συντέλειαν δὲ οὐ μὴ ποιήσω. |
| 28 | The earth shall mourn, and the heavens shall lament from above: because I have spoken, I have purposed, and I have not repented, neither am I turned away from it. | Lugebit terra, et moerebunt caeli desuper, eo quod locutus sum. Cogitavi, et non poenituit me, nec aversus sum ab eo. | Ἐπὶ τούτοις πενθείτω ἡ γῆ, καὶ συσκοτασάτω ὁ οὐρανὸς ἄνωθεν· διότι ἐλάλησα, καὶ οὐ μετανοήσω, ὥρμησα, καὶ οὐκ ἀποστρέψω ἀπʼ αὐτῆς. |
| 29 | At the voice of the horsemen, and the archers, all the city is fled away; they have entered into thickets and have climbed up the rocks: all the cities are forsaken, and there dwelleth not a man in them. | A voce equitis et mittentis sagittam fugit omnis civitas: ingressi sunt ardua, et ascenderunt rupes: universae urbes derelictae sunt, et non habitat in eis homo. | Ἀπὸ φωνῆς ἱππέως, καὶ ἐντεταμένου τόξου ἀνεχώρησε πᾶσα ἡ χώρα· εἰσέδυσαν εἴς τὰ σπήλαια, καὶ εἰς τὰ ἄλση ἐκρύβησαν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς πέτρας ἀνέβησαν· πᾶσα πόλις ἐγκατελείφθη, οὐ κατῴκει ἐν αὐταῖς ἄνθρωπος. |
| 30 | But when thou art spoiled what wilt thou do? though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, and paintest thy eyes with stibic stone, thou shalt dress thyself out in vain: thy lovers have despised thee, they will seek thy life. | Tu autem vastata, quid facies? cum vestieris te coccino, cum ornata fueris monili aureo, et pinxeris stibio oculos tuos, frustra componeris: contempserunt te amatores tui; animam tuam quaerent. | Καὶ σὺ τί ποιήσεις; ἐὰν περιβάλῃ κόκκινον, καὶ κοσμήσῃ κόσμῳ χρυσῷ· ἐὰν ἐγχρίσῃ στίβι τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς σου, εἰς μάταιον ὡραϊσμός σου· ἀπώσαντό σε οἱ ἐρασταί σου, τὴν ψυχήν σου ζητοῦσιν. |
| 31 | For I have heard the voice as of a woman in travail, anguishes as of a woman in labor of a child. The voice of the daughter of Sion, dying away, spreading her hands: Woe is me, for my soul hath fainted because of them that are slain. | Vocem enim quasi parturientis audivi, angustias ut puerperae: vox filiae Sion intermorientis, expandentisque manus suas: Vae mihi, quia defecit anima mea propter interfectos! | Ὅτι φωνὴν ὡς ὠδινούσης ἤκουσα τοῦ στεναγμοῦ σου, ὡς πρωτοτοκούσης· φωνὴ θυγατρὸς Σιὼν ἐκλυθήσεται, καὶ παρήσει τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῆς· οἴμοι ἐγὼ, ὅτι ἐκλείπει ἡ ψυχή μου ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀνῃρημένοις. |
