[24] And Ambri bought the mount Semeron of Semer the lord of the mountain for two talents of silver; and he built upon the mountain, and they called the name of the mountain on which he built, after the name of Semer the lord of the mount, Semeron.
[25] καὶ ἐποίησεν ᾿Αμβρὶ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ ἐπονηρεύσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ·
[25] And Ambri did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and wrought wickedly beyond all that were before him.
[26] καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν πάσῃ ὁδῷ ῾Ιεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτοῦ, αἷς ἐξήμαρτε τὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ τοῦ παροργίσαι τὸν Κύριον Θεὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν τοῖς ματαίοις αὐτῶν.
[26] And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins wherewith he caused Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel by their vanities.
[27] καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων ᾿Αμβρὶ καὶ πάντα, ἃ ἐποίησε, καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων ᾿Ισραήλ;
[27] And the rest of the acts of Ambri, and all that he did, and all his might, behold, are not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
[28] καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ᾿Αμβρὶ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ, καὶ βασιλεύει ᾿Αχαὰβ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
[28] And Ambri slept with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria; and Achaab his son reigns in his stead.
[28]α Καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει τοῦ ᾿Αμβρὶ βασιλεύει ᾿Ιωσαφὰτ υἱὸς ᾿Ασὰ ἐτῶν τριάκοντα καὶ πέντε ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἴκοσι πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Γαζουβὰ θυγάτηρ Σελί.
[28a] And in the eleventh year of Ambri Josaphat the son of Asa reigns, being thirty-five years old in the beginning of his reign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Gazuba, daughter of Seli.
[28]β καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ᾿Ασὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ᾿ αὐτῆς τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον Κυρίου· πλὴν τῶν ὑψηλῶν οὐκ ἐξῇραν, ἔθυον ἐν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς, καὶ ἐθυμίων.
[28b] And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and turned not from it, even from doing right in the eyes of the Lord: only they removed not any of the high places; they sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places.
[28]γ καὶ ἃ συνέθετο ᾿Ιωσαφὰτ μετὰ βασιλέως ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία, ἣν ἐποίησε, καὶ οὓς ἐπολέμησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐν βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τῶν βασιλέων ᾿Ιούδα;
[28c] Now the engagements which Josaphat made with the king of Israel, and all his mighty deeds which he performed, and the enemies whom he fought against, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
[28]δ καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν συμπλοκῶν, ἃς ἐπέθεντο ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ᾿Ασὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἐξῇρεν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς.
[28d] and the remains of the prostitution which they practiced in the days of Asa his father, he removed out of the land:
[28]ε καὶ βασιλεὺς οὐκ ἦν ἐν Συρίᾳ Νασίβ.
[28e] and there was no king in Syria, but a deputy.
[28]ζ καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ᾿Ιωσαφὰτ ἐποίησε ναῦν εἰς Θαρσὶς πορεύεσθαι εἰς Σωφὶρ ἐπὶ τὸ χρυσίον· καὶ οὐκ ἐπορεύθη, ὅτι συνετρίβη ἡ ναῦς ἐν Γασιὼν Γαβέρ.
[28f] And king Josaphat made a ship at Tharsis to go to Sophir for gold: but it went not, for the ship was broken at Gasion Gaber.
[28]η τότε εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ πρὸς ᾿Ιωσαφάτ· ἐξαποστελῶ τοὺς παῖδάς σου καὶ τὰ παιδάριά μου ἐν τῇ νηῖ· καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο ᾿Ιωσαφάτ.
[28g] Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat, I will send forth thy servants and my servants in the ship: but Josaphat would not.
[28]θ καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ᾿Ιωσαφὰτ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ θάπτεται μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ᾿Ιωρὰμ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
[28h] And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.
[29] ᾿Εν ἔτει δευτέρῳ τοῦ ᾿Ιωσαφὰτ βασιλέως ᾿Ιούδα βασιλεύει ᾿Αχαὰβ υἱὸς ᾿Αμβρί· ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἔτη.
[29] In the second year of Josaphat king of Juda, Achaab son of Ambri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.
[30] καὶ ἐποίησεν ᾿Αχαὰβ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου καὶ ἐπονηρεύσατο ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
[30] And Achaab did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and did more wickedly than all that were before him.
[31] καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ ἱκανὸν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ῾Ιεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβάτ, καὶ ἔλαβε γυναῖκα τὴν ᾿Ιεζάβελ θυγατέρα ᾿Ιεθεβαὰλ βασιλέως Σιδωνίων καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἐδούλευσε τῷ Βάαλ καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ,
[31] And it was not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, but he took to wife, Jezabel the daughter of Jethebaal king of the Sidonians; and he went and served Baal, and worshiped him.
[32] καὶ ἔστησε θυσιαστήριον τῷ Βάαλ ἐν οἴκῳ τῶν προσοχθισμάτων αὐτοῦ, ὃν ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ,
[32] And he set up an alter to Baal, in the house of his abominations, which he built in Samaria.
[33] καὶ ἐποίησεν ᾿Αχαὰβ ἄλσος, καὶ προσέθεκεν ᾿Αχαὰβ τοῦ ποιῆσαι παροργίσματα τοῦ παροργίσαι τὸν Κύριον Θεὸν τοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐξολοθρευθῆναι· ἐκακοποίησεν ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ τοὺς γενομένους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
[33] And Achaab made a grove; and Achaab did yet more abominably, to provoke the Lord God of Israel, and to sin against his own life so that he should be destroyed: he did evil above all the kings of Israel that were before him.
[34] καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ᾠκοδόμησεν ᾿Αχιὴλ ὁ Βαιθηλίτης τὴν ῾Ιεριχώ· ἐν τῷ ᾿Αβιρὼν προτοτόκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν καὶ τῷ Σεγοὺβ τῷ νεωτέρῳ αὐτοῦ ἐπέστησε θύρας αὐτῆς κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, ὃ ἐλάλησεν �
��ν χειρὶ ᾿Ιησοῦ υἱοῦ Ναυῆ.
[34] And in his days Achiel the Baethelite built Jericho: he laid the foundation of it in Abiron his first-born, and he set up the doors of it in Segub his younger son, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by Joshua the son of Naue.
CHAPTER 17
[1] Καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ὁ προφήτης ὁ Θεσβίτης ἐκ Θεσβων τῆς Γαλααδ πρὸς Αχααβ Ζῇ κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ, ᾧ παρέστην ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, εἰ ἔσται τὰ ἔτη ταῦτα δρόσος καὶ ὑετὸς ὅτι εἰ μὴ διὰ στόματος λόγου μου.
[1] And Eliu the prophet, the Thesbite of Thesbae of Galaad, said to Achaab, As the Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be these years dew nor rain, except by the word of my mouth.
[2] καὶ ἐγένετο ῥῆμα κυρίου πρὸς Ηλιου
[2] And the word of the Lord came to Eliu, saying,
[3] Πορεύου ἐντεῦθεν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ κρύβηθι ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Χορραθ τοῦ ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ Ιορδάνου·
[3] Depart hence eastward, and hide thee by the brook of Chorrath, that is before Jordan.
[4] καὶ ἔσται ἐκ τοῦ χειμάρρου πίεσαι ὕδωρ, καὶ τοῖς κόραξιν ἐντελοῦμαι διατρέφειν σε ἐκεῖ.
[4] And it shall be that thou shalt drink water of the brook, and I will charge the ravens to feed thee there.
[5] καὶ ἐποίησεν Ηλιου κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Χορραθ ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ Ιορδάνου.
[5] And Eliu did according to the word of the Lord, and he sat by the brook of Chorrath before Jordan.
[6] καὶ οἱ κόρακες ἔφερον αὐτῷ ἄρτους τὸ πρωῒ καὶ κρέα τὸ δείλης, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ χειμάρρου ἔπινεν ὕδωρ.
[6] And the ravens brought him loaves in the morning, and flesh in the evening and he drank water of the brook.
[7] Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ἐξηράνθη ὁ χειμάρρους, ὅτι οὐκ ἐγένετο ὑετὸς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
[7] And it came to pass after some time, that the brook was dried up, because there had been no rain upon the earth.
[8] καὶ ἐγένετο ῥῆμα κυρίου πρὸς Ηλιου
[8] And the word of the Lord came to Eliu, saying,
[9] Ἀνάστηθι καὶ πορεύου εἰς Σαρεπτα τῆς Σιδωνίας· ἰδοὺ ἐντέταλμαι ἐκεῖ γυναικὶ χήρᾳ τοῦ διατρέφειν σε.
[9] Arise, and go to Sarepta of the Sidonian land: behold, I have there commanded a widow-woman to maintain thee.
[10] καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Σαρεπτα εἰς τὸν πυλῶνα τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ γυνὴ χήρα συνέλεγεν ξύλα· καὶ ἐβόησεν ὀπίσω αὐτῆς Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Λαβὲ δή μοι ὀλίγον ὕδωρ εἰς ἄγγος καὶ πίομαι.
[10] And he arose and went to Sarepta, and came to the gate of the city: and, behold, a widow-woman was there gathering sticks; and Eliu cried after her, and said to her, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
[11] καὶ ἐπορεύθη λαβεῖν, καὶ ἐβόησεν ὀπίσω αὐτῆς Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν Λήμψῃ δή μοι ψωμὸν ἄρτου ἐν τῇ χειρί σου.
[11] And she went to fetch it; and Eliu cried after her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of the bread that is in thy hand.
[12] καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνή Ζῇ κύριος ὁ θεός σου, εἰ ἔστιν μοι ἐγκρυφίας ἀλλ’ ἢ ὅσον δρὰξ ἀλεύρου ἐν τῇ ὑδρίᾳ καὶ ὀλίγον ἔλαιον ἐν τῷ καψάκῃ· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ συλλέγω δύο ξυλάρια καὶ εἰσελεύσομαι καὶ ποιήσω αὐτὸ ἐμαυτῇ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις μου, καὶ φαγόμεθα καὶ ἀποθανούμεθα.
[12] And the woman said, As the Lord thy God lives, I have not a cake, but only a handful of meal in the pitcher, and a little oil in a cruse, and, behold, I am going to gather two sticks, and I shall go in and dress it for myself and my children, and we shall eat it and die.
[13] καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὴν Ηλιου Θάρσει, εἴσελθε καὶ ποίησον κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμά σου· ἀλλὰ ποίησον ἐμοὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἐγκρυφίαν μικρὸν ἐν πρώτοις καὶ ἐξοίσεις μοι, σαυτῇ δὲ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις σου ποιήσεις ἐπ’ ἐσχάτου·
[13] And Eliu said to her, Be of good courage, go in and do according to thy word: but make me thereof a little cake, and thou shalt bring it out to me first, and thou shalt make some for thyself and thy children last.
[14] ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος Ἡ ὑδρία τοῦ ἀλεύρου οὐκ ἐκλείψει καὶ ὁ καψάκης τοῦ ἐλαίου οὐκ ἐλαττονήσει ἕως ἡμέρας τοῦ δοῦναι κύριον τὸν ὑετὸν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
[14] For thus saith the Lord, The pitcher of meal shall not fail, and the cruse of oil shall not diminish, until the day that the Lord gives rain upon the earth.
[15] καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἡ γυνὴ καὶ ἐποίησεν· καὶ ἤσθιεν αὐτὴ καὶ αὐτὸς καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς.
[15] And the woman went and did so, and did eat, she, and he, and her children.
[16] καὶ ἡ ὑδρία τοῦ ἀλεύρου οὐκ ἐξέλιπεν καὶ ὁ καψάκης τοῦ ἐλαίου οὐκ ἐλαττονώθη κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου, ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ Ηλιου.
[16] And the pitcher of meal failed not, and the cruse of oil was not diminished, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by the hand of Eliu.
[17] Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ταῦτα καὶ ἠρρώστησεν ὁ υἱὸς τῆς γυναικὸς τῆς κυρίας τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἦν ἡ ἀρρωστία αὐτοῦ κραταιὰ σφόδρα, ἕως οὗ οὐχ ὑπελείφθη ἐν αὐτῷ πνεῦμα.
[17] And it came to pass afterward, that the son of the woman the mistress of the house was sick; and his sickness was very severe, until there was no breath left in him.
[18] καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Ηλιου Τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί, ἄνθρωπε τοῦ θεοῦ; εἰσῆλθες πρός με τοῦ ἀναμνῆσαι τὰς ἀδικίας μου καὶ θανατῶσαι τὸν υἱόν μου.
[18] And she said to Eliu, What have I to do with thee, O man of God? hast thou come in to me to bring my sins to remembrance, and to slay my son?
[19] καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα Δός μοι τὸν υἱόν σου. καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ κόλπου αὐτῆς καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ ὑπερῷον, ἐν ᾧ αὐτὸς ἐκάθητο ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἐκοίμισεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῆς κλίνης αὐτοῦ.
[19] And Eliu said to the woman, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and took him up to the chamber in which he himself lodged, and laid him on the bed.
[20] καὶ ἀνεβόησεν Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν Οἴμμοι, κύριε ὁ μάρτυς τῆς χήρας, μεθ’ ἧς ἐγὼ κατοικῶ μετ’ αὐτῆς, σὺ κεκάκωκας τοῦ θανατῶσαι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς.
[20] And E
liu cried aloud, and said, Alas, O Lord, the witness of the widow with whom I sojourn, thou hast wrought evil for her in slaying her son.
[21] καὶ ἐνεφύσησεν τῷ παιδαρίῳ τρὶς καὶ ἐπεκαλέσατο τὸν κύριον καὶ εἶπεν Κύριε ὁ θεός μου, ἐπιστραφήτω δὴ ἡ ψυχὴ τοῦ παιδαρίου τούτου εἰς αὐτόν.
[21] And he breathed on the child thrice, and called on the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, let, I pray thee, the soul of this child return to him.
[22] καὶ ἐγένετο οὕτως, καὶ ἀνεβόησεν τὸ παιδάριον.
[22] And it was so, and the child cried out,
[23] καὶ κατήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑπερῴου εἰς τὸν οἶκον καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου Βλέπε, ζῇ ὁ υἱός σου.
[23] and he brought him down from the upper chamber into the house, and gave him to his mother; and Eliu said, See, thy son lives.
[24] καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ πρὸς Ηλιου Ἰδοὺ ἔγνωκα ὅτι ἄνθρωπος θεοῦ εἶ σὺ καὶ ῥῆμα κυρίου ἐν στόματί σου ἀληθινόν.
[24] And the woman said to Eliu, Behold, I know that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is true.
CHAPTER 18
[1] Καὶ ἐγένετο μεθ’ ἡμέρας πολλὰς καὶ ῥῆμα κυρίου ἐγένετο πρὸς Ηλιου ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ τρίτῳ λέγων Πορεύθητι καὶ ὄφθητι τῷ Αχααβ, καὶ δώσω ὑετὸν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τῆς γῆς.
[1] And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the Lord came to Eliu in the third year, saying, Go, and appear before Achaab, and I will bring rain upon the face of the earth.
