  [8] and the Chaldeans themselves shall turn again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire.

  [9] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Μὴ ὑπολάβητε ταῖς ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν λέγοντες Ἀποτρέχοντες ἀπελεύσονται ἀφ’ ἡμῶν οἱ Χαλδαῖοι, ὅτι οὐ μὴ ἀπέλθωσιν·

  [9] For thus saith he Lord; Suppose not in your hearts, saying, The Chaldeans will certainly depart from us: for they shall not depart.

  [10] καὶ ἐὰν πατάξητε πᾶσαν δύναμιν τῶν Χαλδαίων τοὺς πολεμοῦντας ὑμᾶς καὶ καταλειφθῶσίν τινες ἐκκεκεντημένοι ἕκαστος ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ, οὗτοι ἀναστήσονται καὶ καύσουσιν τὴν πόλιν ταύτην ἐν πυρί.

  [10] And though ye should smite the whole host of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there should be left a few wounded men, these should rise up each in his place, and burn this city with fire.

  [11] Καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἀνέβη ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων ἀπὸ Ιερουσαλημ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς δυνάμεως Φαραω,

  [11] And it came to pass, when the host of the Chaldeans had gone up from Jerusalem for fear of the host of Pharao,

  [12] ἐξῆλθεν Ιερεμιας ἀπὸ Ιερουσαλημ τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς γῆν Βενιαμιν τοῦ ἀγοράσαι ἐκεῖθεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ.

  [12] that Jeremiah went forth from Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to buy thence a property in the midst of the people.

  [13] καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτὸς ἐν πύλῃ Βενιαμιν, καὶ ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος, παρ’ ᾧ κατέλυεν, Σαρουιας υἱὸς Σελεμιου υἱοῦ Ανανιου, καὶ συνέλαβεν τὸν Ιερεμιαν λέγων Πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους σὺ φεύγεις.

  [13] And he was in the gate of Benjamin, and there was there a man with whom he lodged, Saruia the son of Selemias, the son of Ananias; and he caught Jeremiah, saying, Thou art fleeing to the Chaldeans.

  [14] καὶ εἶπεν Ψεῦδος· οὐκ εἰς τοὺς Χαλδαίους ἐγὼ φεύγω. καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσεν αὐτοῦ καὶ συνέλαβεν Σαρουιας τὸν Ιερεμιαν καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὸν πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας.

  [14] And he said, It is false; I do not flee to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him; and Saruia caught Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.

  [15] καὶ ἐπικράνθησαν οἱ ἄρχοντες ἐπὶ Ιερεμιαν καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἀπέστειλαν αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Ιωναθαν τοῦ γραμματέως, ὅτι ταύτην ἐποίησαν εἰς οἰκίαν φυλακῆς.

  [15] And the princes were very angry with Jeremiah, and smote him, and sent him into the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made this a prison.

  [16] καὶ ἦλθεν Ιερεμιας εἰς οἰκίαν τοῦ λάκκου καὶ εἰς τὴν χερεθ καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐκεῖ ἡμέρας πολλάς.

  [16] So Jeremiah came into the dungeon, and into the cells, and he remained there many days.

  [17] Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Σεδεκιας καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἠρώτα αὐτὸν ὁ βασιλεὺς κρυφαίως εἰπεῖν εἰ ἔστιν λόγος παρὰ κυρίου, καὶ εἶπεν Ἔστιν· εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος παραδοθήσῃ.

  [17] Then Sedekias sent, and called him; and the king asked him secretly, saying, Is there a word from the Lord? and he said, There is: thou shalt be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon.

  [18] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας τῷ βασιλεῖ Τί ἠδίκησά σε καὶ τοὺς παῖδάς σου καὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον, ὅτι σὺ δίδως με εἰς οἰκίαν φυλακῆς;

  [18] And Jeremiah said to the king, Wherein have I wronged thee, or thy servants, or this people, that thou puttest me in prison?

  [19] καὶ ποῦ εἰσιν οἱ προφῆται ὑμῶν οἱ προφητεύσαντες ὑμῖν λέγοντες ὅτι Οὐ μὴ ἔλθῃ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ταύτην;

  [19] And where are your prophets who prophesied to you saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against this land?

  [20] καὶ νῦν, κύριε βασιλεῦ, πεσέτω τὸ ἔλεός μου κατὰ πρόσωπόν σου, καὶ τί ἀποστρέφεις με εἰς οἰκίαν Ιωναθαν τοῦ γραμματέως καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνω ἐκεῖ;

  [20] Now therefore, my lord the king, let my supplication come before thy face: and why dost thou send me back to the house of Jonathan the scribe? and let me not on any account die there.

  [21] καὶ συνέταξεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἐνεβάλοσαν αὐτὸν εἰς οἰκίαν τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ ἐδίδοσαν αὐτῷ ἄρτον ἕνα τῆς ἡμέρας ἔξωθεν οὗ πέσσουσιν, ἕως ἐξέλιπον οἱ ἄρτοι ἐκ τῆς πόλεως· καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ιερεμιας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς.

  [21] Then the king commanded, and they cast him into the prison, and gave him a loaf a day out of the place where they bake, until the bread failed out of the city. So Jeremiah continued in the court of the prison.

  CHAPTER 45

  [1] Καὶ ἤκουσεν Σαφατιας υἱὸς Μαθαν καὶ Γοδολιας υἱὸς Πασχωρ καὶ Ιωαχαλ υἱὸς Σελεμιου τοὺς λόγους, οὓς ἐλάλει Ιερεμιας ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν λέγων

  [1] And Saphanias the son of Nathan, and Godolias the son of Paschor, and Joachal the son of Semelias, heard the words which Jeremiah spoke to the people, saying,

  [2] Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ, καὶ ὁ ἐκπορευόμενος πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους ζήσεται, καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς εὕρεμα, καὶ ζήσεται·

  [2] Thus saith the Lord; He that remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine: but he that goes out to the Chaldeans shall live; and his soul shall be given him for a found treasure, and he shall live.

  [3] ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Παραδιδομένη παραδοθήσεται ἡ πόλις αὕτη εἰς χεῖρας δυνάμεως βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ συλλήμψεται αὐτήν.

  [3] For thus saith the Lord; This city shall certainly be delivered into the hands of the host of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.

  [4] καὶ εἶπαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἀναιρεθήτω δὴ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος, ὅτι αὐτὸς ἐκλύει τὰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀνθρώπων τῶν πολεμούντων τῶν καταλειπομένων ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ τὰς χεῖρας παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ λαλῶν πρὸς αὐτοὺς κατὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους, ὅτι ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος οὐ χρησμολογεῖ εἰρήνην τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ ἀλλ’ ἢ πονηρά.

  [4] And they said to the king. Let that man, we pray thee, be slain, for he weakens the hands of the fighting men that are left in the city, and the hands of all the people, speaking to them according to these words: for this man does not prophesy peace to this people, but evil.

  [5] καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς Ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐν χερσὶν ὑμῶν· ὅτι οὐκ ἠδύνατο ὁ βασιλεὺ
ς πρὸς αὐτούς.

  [5] Then the king said, Behold, he is in your hands. For the king could not resist them.

  [6] καὶ ἔρριψαν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν λάκκον Μελχιου υἱοῦ τοῦ βασιλέως, ὃς ἦν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς, καὶ ἐχάλασαν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν λάκκον, καὶ ἐν τῷ λάκκῳ οὐκ ἦν ὕδωρ ἀλλ’ ἢ βόρβορος, καὶ ἦν ἐν τῷ βορβόρῳ.

  [6] And they cast him into the dungeon of Melchias the king’s son, which was in the court of the prison; and they let him down into the pit: and there was no water in the pit, but mire: and he was in the mire.

  [7] Καὶ ἤκουσεν Αβδεμελεχ ὁ Αἰθίοψ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν οἰκίᾳ τοῦ βασιλέως, ὅτι ἔδωκαν Ιερεμιαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον· καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἦν ἐν τῇ πύλῃ Βενιαμιν·

  [7] And Abdemelech the Ethiopian heard, (now he was in the king’s household,)that they had put Jeremiah into the dungeon; and the king was in the gate of Benjamin:

  [8] καὶ ἐξῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἐλάλησεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ εἶπεν

  [8] and he went forth to him, and spoke to the king and said,

  [9] Ἐπονηρεύσω ἃ ἐποίησας τοῦ ἀποκτεῖναι τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦτον ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ λιμοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶν ἔτι ἄρτοι ἐν τῇ πόλει.

  [9] Thou hast done evil in what thou hast done to slay this man with hunger: for there is no more bread in the city.

  [10] καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Αβδεμελεχ λέγων Λαβὲ εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου ἐντεῦθεν τριάκοντα ἀνθρώπους καὶ ἀνάγαγε αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνῃ.

  [10] And the king commanded Abdemelech, saying, Take with thee hence thirty men, and bring him up out of the dungeon, that he die not.

  [11] καὶ ἔλαβεν Αβδεμελεχ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ὑπόγειον καὶ ἔλαβεν ἐκεῖθεν παλαιὰ ῥάκη καὶ παλαιὰ σχοινία καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὰ πρὸς Ιερεμιαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον

  [11] So Abdemelech took the men and went into the underground part of the king’s house, and took thence old rags and old ropes, and threw them to Jeremiah into the dungeon.

  [12] καὶ εἶπεν Ταῦτα θὲς ὑποκάτω τῶν σχοινίων· καὶ ἐποίησεν Ιερεμιας οὕτως.

  [12] And he said, Put these under the ropes. And Jeremiah did so.

  [13] καὶ εἵλκυσαν αὐτὸν τοῖς σχοινίοις καὶ ἀνήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου· καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ιερεμιας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς.

  [13] And they drew him with the ropes, and lifted him out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.

  [14] Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν πρὸς ἑαυτὸν εἰς οἰκίαν ασελισι τὴν ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς Ἐρωτήσω σε λόγον, καὶ μὴ δὴ κρύψῃς ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ ῥῆμα.

  [14] Then the king sent, and called him to himself into the house of Aselisel, which was in the house of the Lord: and the King said to him, I will ask thee a question, and I pray thee hide nothing from me.

  [15] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἐὰν ἀναγγείλω σοι, οὐχὶ θανάτῳ με θανατώσεις; καὶ ἐὰν συμβουλεύσω σοι, οὐ μὴ ἀκούσῃς μου.

  [15] And Jeremiah said to the king, If I tell thee, wilt thou not certainly put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, thou wilt not at all hearken to me.

  [16] καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς λέγων Ζῇ κύριος, ὃς ἐποίησεν ἡμῖν τὴν ψυχὴν ταύτην, εἰ ἀποκτενῶ σε καὶ εἰ δώσω σε εἰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀνθρώπων τούτων.

  [16] And the king swore to him, saying, As the Lord lives who gave us this soul, I will not slay thee, neither will I give thee into the hands of these men.

  [17] καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ιερεμιας Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ἐὰν ἐξελθὼν ἐξέλθῃς πρὸς ἡγεμόνας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχή σου, καὶ ἡ πόλις αὕτη οὐ μὴ κατακαυθῇ ἐν πυρί, καὶ ζήσῃ σὺ καὶ ἡ οἰκία σου·

  [17] And Jeremiah said to him, Thus saith the Lord; If thou wilt indeed go forth to the captains of the king of Babylon, thy soul shall live, and this city shall certainly not be burnt with fire; and thou shalt live, and thy house.

  [18] καὶ ἐὰν μὴ ἐξέλθῃς, δοθήσεται ἡ πόλις αὕτη εἰς χεῖρας τῶν Χαλδαίων, καὶ καύσουσιν αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί, καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ σωθῇς.

  [18] But if thou wilt not go forth this city shall be delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt by no means escape.

  [19] καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Ιερεμια Ἐγὼ λόγον ἔχω τῶν Ιουδαίων τῶν πεφευγότων πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους, μὴ δώσειν με εἰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν, καὶ καταμωκήσονταί μου.

  [19] And the king said to Jeremiah, I consider the Jews that have gone over to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hands, and they mock me.

  [20] καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας Οὐ μὴ παραδῶσίν σε· ἄκουσον τὸν λόγον κυρίου, ὃν ἐγὼ λέγω πρὸς σέ, καὶ βέλτιον ἔσται σοι, καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχή σου.

  [20] And Jeremiah said, They shall in no wise deliver thee up. Hear the word of the Lord which I speak to thee; and it shall be better for thee, and thy soul shall live.

  [21] καὶ εἰ μὴ θέλεις σὺ ἐξελθεῖν, οὗτος ὁ λόγος, ὃν ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος

  [21] But if thou wilt not go forth, this is the word which the Lord has shewn me.

  [22] Καὶ ἰδοὺ πᾶσαι αἱ γυναῖκες αἱ καταλειφθεῖσαι ἐν οἰκίᾳ βασιλέως Ιουδα ἐξήγοντο πρὸς ἄρχοντας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ αὗται ἔλεγον Ἠπάτησάν σε καὶ δυνήσονταί σοι ἄνδρες εἰρηνικοί σου καὶ καταλύσουσιν ἐν ὀλισθήμασιν πόδας σου, ἀπέστρεψαν ἀπὸ σοῦ.

  [22] And, behold, all the women that are left in the house of the king of Juda were brought forth to the princes of the king of Babylon; and they said, The men who were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and will prevail against thee; and they shall cause thy foot to slide and fail, they have turned back from thee.

  [23] καὶ τὰς γυναῖκάς σου καὶ τὰ τέκνα σου ἐξάξουσιν πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους, καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ σωθῇς, ὅτι ἐν χειρὶ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος συλλημφθήσῃ, καὶ ἡ πόλις αὕτη κατακαυθήσεται.

  [23] And they shall bring forth thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt by no means escape, for thou shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon, and this city shall be burnt.

  [24] καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς Ἄνθρωπος μὴ γνώτω ἐκ τῶν λόγων τούτων, καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς.

  [24] Th
en the king said to him, Let no man know any of these words, and certainly thou shalt not die.

  [25] καὶ ἐὰν ἀκούσωσιν οἱ ἄρχοντες ὅτι ἐλάλησά σοι καὶ ἔλθωσιν πρὸς σὲ καὶ εἴπωσίν σοι Ἀνάγγειλον ἡμῖν τί ἐλάλησέν σοι ὁ βασιλεύς· μὴ κρύψῃς ἀφ’ ἡμῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀνέλωμέν σε· καὶ τί ἐλάλησεν πρὸς σὲ ὁ βασιλεύς;

  [25] And if the princes shall hear that I have spoken to thee, and they come to thee, and say to thee, Tell us, what said the king to thee? hide it not from us, and we will in no wise slay thee, and what said the king to thee?

  [26] καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς Ῥίπτω ἐγὼ τὸ ἔλεός μου κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ βασιλέως πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἀποστρέψαι με εἰς οἰκίαν Ιωναθαν ἀποθανεῖν ἐκεῖ.

  [26] Then thou shalt say to them, I brought my supplication before the presence of the king, that he would not send me back into the house of Jonathan, that I should die there.

  [27] καὶ ἤλθοσαν πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες πρὸς Ιερεμιαν καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτόν, καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν αὐτοῖς κατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους, οὓς ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς· καὶ ἀπεσιώπησαν, ὅτι οὐκ ἠκούσθη λόγος κυρίου.

  [27] And all the princes came to Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words, which the king had commanded him. And they were silent, because the word of the Lord was not heard.

  [28] καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ιερεμιας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς ἕως χρόνου οὗ συνελήμφθη Ιερουσαλημ.

  [28] And Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison, until the time when Jerusalem was taken.
