| 1 | And now, O ye priests, this commandment is to you. | Et nunc ad vos mandatum hoc, o sacerdotes. | Καὶ νῦν ἡ ἐντολὴ αὕτη πρὸς ὑμᾶς οἱ ἱερεῖς. |
| 2 | If you will not hear, and if you will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my name, saith the Lord of hosts: I will send poverty upon you, and will curse your blessings, yea I will curse them, because you have not laid it to heart. | Si nolueritis audire, et si nolueritis ponere super cor, ut detis gloriam nomini meo, ait Dominus exercituum, mittam in vos egestatem, et maledicam benedictionibus vestris, et maledicam illis, quoniam non posuistis super cor. | Ἐὰν μὴ ἀκούσητε, καὶ ἐὰν μὴ θῆσθε εἰς τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν, τοῦ δοῦναι δόξαν τῷ ὀνόματί μου, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ· καὶ ἐξαποστελῶ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς τὴν κατάραν, καὶ ἐπικαταράσομαι τὴν εὐλογίαν ὑμῶν, καὶ καταράσομαι αὐτήν· καὶ διασκεδάσω τὴν εὐλογίαν ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ἐν ὑμῖν, ὅτι ὑμεῖς οὐ τίθεσθε εἰς τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν. |
| 3 | Behold, I will cast the shoulder to you, and I will scatter upon your face the dung of your solemnities, and it shall take you away with it. | Ecce ego proiiciam vobis brachium, et dispergam super vultum vestrum stercus solemnitatum vestrarum, et assumet vos secum. | Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀφορίζω ὑμῖν τὸν ὦμον, καὶ σκορπιῶ ἔνυστρον ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα ὑμῶν, ἔνυστρον ἑορτῶν, ὑμῶν, καὶ λήψομαι ὑμᾶς εἰς τὸ αὐτό· |
| 4 | And you shall know that I sent you this commandment, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts. | Et scietis quia misi ad vos mandatum istud, ut esset pactum meum cum Levi, dicit Dominus exercituum. | Καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ ἐξαπέσταλκα πρὸς ὑμᾶς τὴν ἐντολὴν ταύτην, τοῦ εἶναι τὴν διαθήκην μου πρὸς τοὺς Λευίτας, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ. |
| 5 | My covenant was with him of life and peace: and I gave him fear: and he feared me, and he was afraid before my name. | Pactum meum fuit cum eo vitae et pacis: et dedi ei timorem, et timuit me, et a facie nominis mei pavebat. | Ἡ διαθήκη μου ἦν μετʼ αὐτοῦ τῆς ζωῆς καὶ τῆς εἰρήνης, καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῷ ἐν φόβῳ φοβεῖσθαί με, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου ὀνόματός μου στέλλεσθαι αὐτόν· |
| 6 | The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace, and in equity, and turned many away from iniquity. | Lex veritatis fuit in ore eius, et iniquitas non est inventa in labiis eius: in pace et in aequitate ambulavit mecum, et multos avertit ab iniquitate. | νόμος ἀληθείας ἦν ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀδικία οὐχ εὑρέθη ἐν χείλεσιν αὐτοῦ· ἐν εἰρήνῃ κατευθύνων ἐπορεύθη μετʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ πολλοὺς ἐπέστρεψεν ἀπὸ ἀδικίας. |
| 7 | For the lips of the priest shall keep knowledge, and they shall seek the law at his mouth: because he is the angel of the Lord of hosts. | Labia enim sacerdotis custodient scientiam, et legem requirent ex ore eius, quia angelus Domini exercituum est. | Ὅτι χείλη ἱερέως φυλάξεται γνῶσιν, καὶ νόμον ἐκζητήσουσιν ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ, διότι ἄγγελος Κυρίου παντοκράτορός ἐστιν. |
| 8 | But you have departed out of the way, and have caused many to stumble at the law: you have made void the covenant of Levi, saith the Lord of hosts. | Vos autem recessistis de via, et scandalizastis plurimos in lege: irritum fecistis pactum Levi, dicit Dominus exercituum. | Ὑμεῖς δὲ ἐξεκλίνατε ἐκ τῆς ὁδοῦ, καὶ ἠσθενήσατε πολλοὺς ἐν νόμῳ, διεφθείρατε τὴν διαθήκην τοῦ Λευὶ, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ. |
| 9 | Therefore have I also made you contemptible, and base before all people, as you have not kept my ways, and have accepted persons in the law. | Propter quod et ego dedi vos contemptibiles, et humiles omnibus populis, sicut non servastis vias meas, et accepistis faciem in lege. | Κᾀγὼ δέδωκα ὑμᾶς ἐξουδενωμένους καὶ ἀπεῤῥιμμένους εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ἀνθʼ ὧν ὑμεῖς οὐκ ἐφυλάξασθε τὰς ὁδούς μου, ἀλλὰ ἐλαμβάνετε πρόσωπα ἐν νόμῳ. |
| 10 | Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why then doth every one of us despise his brother, violating the covenant of our fathers? | Numquid non pater unus omnium nostrum? numquid non Deus unus creavit nos? quare ergo despicit unusquisque nostrum fratrem suum, violans pactum patrum nostrorum? | Οὐχὶ πατὴρ εἷς πάντων ὑμῶν; οὐχὶ Θεὸς εἷς ἔκτισεν ὑμᾶς; τί ὅτι ἐγκατελίπετε ἕκαστος τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ βεβηλῶσαι τὴν διαθήκην τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν; |
| 11 | Juda hath transgressed, and abomination hath been committed in Israel, and in Jerusalem: for Juda hath profaned the holiness of the Lord, which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange God. | Transgressus est Iuda, et abominatio facta est in Israël et in Ierusalem, quia contaminavit Iuda sanctificationem Domini, quam dilexit, et habuit filiam dei alieni. | Ἐνκατελείφθη Ἰούδας, καὶ βδέλυγμα ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, διότι ἐβεβήλωσεν Ἰούδας τὰ ἅγια Κυρίου, ἐν οἷς ἠγάπησε, καὶ ἐπετήδευσεν εἰς θεοὺς ἀλλοτρίους. |
| 12 | The Lord will cut off the man that hath done this, both the master, and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering to the Lord of hosts. | Disperdet Dominus virum qui fecerit hoc, magistrum et discipulum, de tabernaculis Iacob, et offerentem munus Domino exercituum. | Ἐξολοθρεύσει Κύριος τὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν ποιοῦντα ταῦτα, ἕως καὶ ταπεινωθῇ ἐκ σκηνωμάτων Ἰακὼβ, καὶ ἐκ προσαγόντων θυσίαν τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι. |
| 13 | And this again have you done, you have covered the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping, and bellowing, so that I have no more a regard to sacrifice, neither do I accept any atonement at your hands. | Et hoc rursum fecistis: operiebatis lacrimis altare Domini, fletu et mugitu, ita ut non respiciam ultra ad sacrificium, nec accipiam placabile quid de manu vestra. | Καὶ ταῦτα, ἃ ἔμισουν, ἐποιεῖτε· ἐκαλύπτετε δάκρυσι τὸ θυσιαστήριον Κυρίου, καὶ κλαυθμῷ καὶ στεναγμῷ ἐκ κόπων· ἔτι ἄξιον ἐπιβλέψαι εἰς θυσίαν, ἢ λαβεῖν δεκτὸν ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν; |
| 14 | And you have said: For what cause? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee, and the wife of thy youth, whom thou hast despised: yet she was thy partner, and the wife of thy covenant. | Et dixistis: Quam ob causam? Quia Dominus testificatus est inter te et uxorem pubertatis tuae, quam tu despexisti: et haec particeps tua, et uxor foederis tui. | Καὶ εἴπατε, ἕνεκεν τίνος; ὅτι Κύριος διεμαρτύρατο ἀναμέσον σου, καὶ ἀναμέσον γυναικὸς νεότητός σου, ἣν ἐγκατέλιπες, καὶ αὕτη κοινωνός σου, καὶ γυνὴ διαθήκης σου. |
| 15 | Did not one make her, and she is the residue of his spirit? And what doth one seek, but the seed of God? Keep then your spirit, and despise not the wife of thy youth. | Nonne unus fecit, et residuum spiritus eius est? et quid unus quaerit, nisi semen Dei? custodite ergo spiritum vestrum, et uxorem adolescentiae tuae noli despicere. | Καὶ οὐ καλὸν ἐποίησε; καὶ ὑπόλειμμα πνεύματος αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἴπατε, τί ἄλλο ἢ σπέρμα ζητεῖ ὁ Θεός; καὶ φυλάξασθε ἐν τῷ πνεύματι ὑμῶν, καὶ γυναῖκα νεότητός σου μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς. |
| 16 | When thou shalt hate her put her away, saith the Lord the God of Israel: but iniquity shall cover his garment, saith the Lord of hosts, keep your spirit, and despise not. | Cum odio habueris, dimitte, dicit Dominus Deus Israël: operiet autem iniquitas vestimentum eius, dicit Dominus exercituum. Custodite spiritum vestrum, et nolite despicere. | Ἀλλὰ ἐὰν μισήσας ἐξαποστείλῃς, λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ καλύψει ἀσέβεια ἐπὶ τὰ ἐνθυμήματά σου, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ. καὶ φυλάξασθε ἐν τῷ πνεύματι ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐγκαταλίπητε |
| 17 | You have wearied the Lord with your words, and you said: Wherein have we wearied him? In that you say: Every one that doth evil, is good in the sight of the Lord, and such please him: or surely where is the God of judgment? | Laborare fecistis Dominum in sermonibus vestris, et dixistis: In quo eum fecimus laborare? In eo quod dicitis: Omnis qui facit malum bonus est in conspectu Domini, et tales ei placent: aut certe ubi est Deus iudicii? | οἱ παροξύναντες τὸν Θεὸν ἐν τοῖς λόγοις ὑμῶν· καὶ εἴπατε, ἐν τίνι παρωξύναμεν αὐτόν; ἐν τῷ λέγειν ὑμᾶς, πᾶς ποιῶν πονηρὸν, καλὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου, καὶ ἐν αὐτοῖς αὐτὸς εὐδόκησε, καί ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δικαιοσύνης; |
