  [14] καὶ ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς καὶ θήσομαι τὴν γῆν εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ εἰς ὄλεθρον ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου Δεβλαθα ἐκ πάσης τῆς κατοικίας· καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος.

  [14] And I will stretch out my hand against them, and I will make the land desolate and ruined from the wilderness of Deblatha, in all their habitations: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

  CHAPTER 7

  [1] Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

  [1] Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Also, thou, son of man, say,

  [2] Καὶ σύ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, εἰπόν Τάδε λέγει κύριος τῇ γῇ τοῦ Ισραηλ Πέρας ἥκει, τὸ πέρας ἥκει ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας πτέρυγας τῆς γῆς·

  [2] Thus saith the Lord;

  An end is come to the land of Israel, the end is come on the four corners of the land.

  [3] ἥκει τὸ πέρας

  [3] The end is come on thee,

  [4] ἐπὶ σὲ τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν γῆν, ἥκει ὁ καιρός, ἤγγικεν ἡ ἡμέρα, οὐ μετὰ θορύβων οὐδὲ μετὰ ὠδίνων.

  [7] the inhabitant of the land: the time is come, the day has drawn nigh, not with tumult, nor with pangs.

  [5] νῦν ἐγγύθεν ἐκχεῶ τὴν ὀργήν μου ἐπὶ σὲ καὶ συντελέσω τὸν θυμόν μου ἐν σοὶ καὶ κρινῶ σε ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς σου καὶ δώσω ἐπὶ σὲ πάντα τὰ βδελύγματά σου·

  [8] Now I will pour out my anger upon thee near at hand, and I will accomplish my wrath on thee: and I will judge thee for thy ways, and recompense upon thee all thine abominations.

  [6] οὐ φείσεται ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου, οὐδὲ μὴ ἐλεήσω, διότι τὰς ὁδούς σου ἐπὶ σὲ δώσω, καὶ τὰ βδελύγματά σου ἐν μέσῳ σου ἔσονται, καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ διότι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ὁ τύπτων.

  [9] Mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy: for I will recompense thy ways upon thee, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord that smite thee.

  [7] νῦν τὸ πέρας πρὸς σέ, καὶ ἀποστελῶ ἐγὼ ἐπὶ σὲ καὶ ἐκδικήσω σε ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς σου καὶ δώσω ἐπὶ σὲ πάντα τὰ βδελύγματά σου·

  [7] Now the end is come to thee, and I will send judgment upon thee: and I will take vengeance on thy ways, and will recompense all thine abominations upon thee.

  [8] οὐ φείσεται ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἐπὶ σέ, οὐδὲ μὴ ἐλεήσω, διότι τὴν ὁδόν σου ἐπὶ σὲ δώσω, καὶ τὰ βδελύγματά σου ἐν μέσῳ σου ἔσται· καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ διότι ἐγὼ κύριος.

  [4] Mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy: for I will recompense thy way upon thee, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

  [9] διότι τάδε λέγει κύριος

  [5] For thus saith the Lord; Behold, the end is come.

  [10] Ἰδοὺ τὸ πέρας ἥκει, ἰδοὺ ἡμέρα κυρίου· εἰ καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος ἤνθηκεν, ἡ ὕβρις ἐξανέστηκεν.

  [10] Behold, the day of the Lord! although the rod has blossomed,

  [11] καὶ συντρίψει στήριγμα ἀνόμου καὶ οὐ μετὰ θορύβου οὐδὲ μετὰ σπουδῆς.

  [11] pride has sprung up, and will break the staff of the wicked one, and that not with tumult, nor with haste.

  [12] ἥκει ὁ καιρός, ἰδοὺ ἡ ἡμέρα· ὁ κτώμενος μὴ χαιρέτω, καὶ ὁ πωλῶν μὴ θρηνείτω·

  [12] The time is come, behold the day: let not the buyer rejoice, and let not the seller mourn.

  [13] διότι ὁ κτώμενος πρὸς τὸν πωλοῦντα οὐκέτι μὴ ἐπιστρέψῃ, καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἐν ὀφθαλμῷ ζωῆς αὐτοῦ οὐ κρατήσει.

  [13] For the buyer shall never again return to the seller, neither shall a man cleave with the eye of hope to his life.

  [14] σαλπίσατε ἐν σάλπιγγι καὶ κρίνατε τὰ σύμπαντα.

  [14] Sound ye the trumpet, and pass sentence on all together.

  [15] ὁ πόλεμος ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ ἔξωθεν, καὶ ὁ λιμὸς καὶ ὁ θάνατος ἔσωθεν· ὁ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ τελευτήσει, τοὺς δὲ ἐν τῇ πόλει λιμὸς καὶ θάνατος συντελέσει.

  [15] There shall be war with the sword without, and famine and pestilence within: he that is in the field shall die by the sword; and famine and pestilence shall destroy them that are in the city.

  [16] καὶ ἀνασωθήσονται οἱ ἀνασῳζόμενοι ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ ἔσονται ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων· πάντας ἀποκτενῶ, ἕκαστον ἐν ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτοῦ.

  [16] But they that escape of them shall be delivered, and shall be upon the mountains: and I will slay all the rest, every one for his iniquities.

  [17] πᾶσαι χεῖρες ἐκλυθήσονται, καὶ πάντες μηροὶ μολυνθήσονται ὑγρασίᾳ,

  [17] All hands shall be completely weakened, and all thighs shall be defiled with moisture.

  [18] καὶ περιζώσονται σάκκους, καὶ καλύψει αὐτοὺς θάμβος, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶν πρόσωπον αἰσχύνη ἐπ’ αὐτούς, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν κεφαλὴν φαλάκρωμα.

  [18] And they shall gird themselves with sackcloth, and amazement shall cover them; and shame shall be upon them, even upon every face, and baldness upon every head.

  [19] τὸ ἀργύριον αὐτῶν ῥιφήσεται ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις, καὶ τὸ χρυσίον αὐτῶν ὑπεροφθήσεται· αἱ ψυχαὶ αὐτῶν οὐ μὴ ἐμπλησθῶσιν, καὶ αἱ κοιλίαι αὐτῶν οὐ μὴ πληρωθῶσιν· διότι βάσανος τῶν ἀδικιῶν αὐτῶν ἐγένετο.

  [19] Their silver shall be cast forth in the streets, and their gold shall be despised: their souls shall not be satisfied, and their bellies shall not be filled: for it was the punishment of their iniquities.

  [20] ἐκλεκτὰ κόσμου εἰς ὑπερηφανίαν ἔθεντο αὐτὰ καὶ εἰκόνας τῶν βδελυγμάτων αὐτῶν ἐποίησαν ἐξ αὐτῶν· ἕνεκεν τούτου δέδωκα αὐτὰ αὐτοῖς εἰς ἀκαθαρσίαν.

  [20] As for their choice ornaments, they employed them for pride, and they made of them images of their abominations: therefore have I made them uncleanness to them.

  [21] καὶ παραδώσω αὐτὰ εἰς χεῖρας ἀλλοτρίων τοῦ διαρπάσαι αὐτὰ καὶ τοῖς λοιμοῖς τῆς γῆς εἰς σκῦλα, καὶ βεβηλώσουσιν αὐτά.

  [21] And I will deliver them into the hands of strangers to make them a prey, and to the pests of the earth for a spoil; and they shall profane them.

  [22] καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀπ’ αὐτῶν, καὶ μιανοῦσιν τὴν ἐπισκοπήν μου καὶ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς αὐτὰ ἀφυλάκτως καὶ βεβηλώσουσιν αὐτά·

  [22] And I will turn away my face from them, and they shall defile my charge, and shall go in to them unguardedly, and profane them.

  [23] καὶ ποιήσουσι
φυρμόν, διότι ἡ γῆ πλήρης λαῶν, καὶ ἡ πόλις πλήρης ἀνομίας.

  [23] And they shall work uncleanness: because the land is full of strange nations, and the city is full of iniquity.

  [24] καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὸ φρύαγμα τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτῶν, καὶ μιανθήσεται τὰ ἅγια αὐτῶν.

  [24] And I will turn back the boasting of their strength; and their holy things shall be defiled.

  [25] ἐξιλασμὸς ἥξει καὶ ζητήσει εἰρήνην, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται.

  [25] And though propitiation shall come, and one shall seek peace, yet there shall be none.

  [26] οὐαὶ ἐπὶ οὐαὶ ἔσται, καὶ ἀγγελία ἐπ’ ἀγγελίαν ἔσται, καὶ ζητηθήσεται ὅρασις ἐκ προφήτου, καὶ νόμος ἀπολεῖται ἐξ ἱερέως καὶ βουλὴ ἐκ πρεσβυτέρων.

  [26] There shall be woe upon woe, and there shall be message upon message; and a vision shall be sought from a prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.

  [27] ἄρχων ἐνδύσεται ἀφανισμόν, καὶ αἱ χεῖρες τοῦ λαοῦ τῆς γῆς παραλυθήσονται· κατὰ τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν ποιήσω αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐν τοῖς κρίμασιν αὐτῶν ἐκδικήσω αὐτούς· καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος.

  [27] The prince shall clothe himself with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be made feeble: I will do to them according to their ways, and according to their judgements will I punish them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

  CHAPTER 8

  [1] Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἕκτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ μηνὶ πέμπτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγὼ ἐκαθήμην ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Ιουδα ἐκάθηντο ἐνώπιόν μου, καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπ’ ἐμὲ χεὶρ κυρίου,

  [1] And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the fifth month, on the fifth day of the month, I was sitting in the house, and the elders of Juda were sitting before me: and the hand of the Lord came upon me.

  [2] καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁμοίωμα ἀνδρός, ἀπὸ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕως κάτω πῦρ, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ ὑπεράνω ὡς ὅρασις ἠλέκτρου.

  [2] And I looked, and, behold, the likeness of a man: from his loins and downwards there was fire, and from his loins upwards there was as the appearance of amber.

  [3] καὶ ἐξέτεινεν ὁμοίωμα χειρὸς καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με τῆς κορυφῆς μου, καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με πνεῦμα ἀνὰ μέσον τῆς γῆς καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἤγαγέν με εἰς Ιερουσαλημ ἐν ὁράσει θεοῦ ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης τῆς ἐσωτέρας τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν, οὗ ἦν ἡ στήλη τοῦ κτωμένου.

  [3] And he stretched forth the likeness of a hand, and took me by the crown of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and sky, and brought me to Jerusalem in a vision of God, to the porch of the gate that looks to the north, where was the pillar of the Purchaser.

  [4] καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ ἦν δόξα κυρίου θεοῦ Ισραηλ κατὰ τὴν ὅρασιν, ἣν εἶδον ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ.

  [4] And, behold, the glory of the Lord God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I saw in the plain.

  [5] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἀνάβλεψον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου πρὸς βορρᾶν· καὶ ἀνέβλεψα τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς μου πρὸς βορρᾶν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀπὸ βορρᾶ ἐπὶ τὴν πύλην τὴν πρὸς ἀνατολάς.

  [5] And he said to me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes toward the north, and, behold, I looked from the north toward the eastern gate.

  [6] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἑώρακας τί οὗτοι ποιοῦσιν; ἀνομίας μεγάλας ποιοῦσιν ὧδε τοῦ ἀπέχεσθαι ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων μου· καὶ ἔτι ὄψει ἀνομίας μείζονας.

  [6] And he said to me, Son of man, hast thou seen what these do? They commit great abominations here so that I should keep away from my sanctuary: and thou shalt see yet greater iniquities.

  [7] καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς αὐλῆς

  [7] And he brought me to the porch of the court.

  [8] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ὄρυξον· καὶ ὤρυξα, καὶ ἰδοὺ θύρα μία.

  [8] And he said to me, Son of man, dig: so I dug, and behold a door.

  [9] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Εἴσελθε καὶ ἰδὲ τὰς ἀνομίας, ἃς οὗτοι ποιοῦσιν ὧδε·

  [9] And he said to me, Go in, and behold the iniquities which they practise here.

  [10] καὶ εἰσῆλθον καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ μάταια βδελύγματα καὶ πάντα τὰ εἴδωλα οἴκου Ισραηλ διαγεγραμμένα ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ κύκλῳ,

  [10] So I went in and looked; and beheld vain abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon them round about.

  [11] καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα ἄνδρες ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων οἴκου Ισραηλ, καὶ Ιεζονιας ὁ τοῦ Σαφαν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν εἱστήκει πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, καὶ ἕκαστος θυμιατήριον αὐτοῦ εἶχεν ἐν τῇ χειρί, καὶ ἡ ἀτμὶς τοῦ θυμιάματος ἀνέβαινεν.

  [11] And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Jechonias the son of Saphan stood in their presence in the midst of them, and each one held his censer in his hand; and the smoke of the incense went up.

  [12] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἑώρακας ἃ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ οἴκου Ισραηλ ποιοῦσιν, ἕκαστος αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ κοιτῶνι τῷ κρυπτῷ αὐτῶν; διότι εἶπαν Οὐχ ὁρᾷ ὁ κύριος, ἐγκαταλέλοιπεν κύριος τὴν γῆν.

  [12] And he said to me, Thou hast seen, son of man, what the elders of the house of Israel do, each one of them in their secret chamber: because they have said, The Lord see not; The Lord has forsaken the earth.

  [13] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Ἔτι ὄψει ἀνομίας μείζονας, ἃς οὗτοι ποιοῦσιν.

  [13] And he said to me, Thou shalt see yet greater iniquities which these do.

  [14] καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης οἴκου κυρίου τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ γυναῖκες καθήμεναι θρηνοῦσαι τὸν Θαμμουζ,

  [14] And he brought me in to the porch of the house of the Lord that looks to the north; and, behold there were women sitting there lamenting for Thammuz.

  [15] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἑώρακας; καὶ ἔτι ὄψει ἐπιτηδεύματα μείζονα τούτων.

  [15] And he said to me, Son of man, thou hast seen; but thou shalt yet see evil practices greater then these.

  [16] καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν οἴκου κυρίου τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπὶ τῶν προθύρων τοῦ ναοῦ κυρίου ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν αιλαμ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θυσιαστηρί�
�υ ὡς εἴκοσι ἄνδρες, τὰ ὀπίσθια αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ κυρίου καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἀπέναντι, καὶ οὗτοι προσκυνοῦσιν τῷ ἡλίῳ·

  [16] And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord, and at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty men, with their back parts toward the temple of the Lord, and their faces turned the opposite way; and these were worshipping the sun.

  [17] καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Ἑώρακας, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου; μὴ μικρὰ τῷ οἴκῳ Ιουδα τοῦ ποιεῖν τὰς ἀνομίας, ἃς πεποιήκασιν ὧδε; διότι ἔπλησαν τὴν γῆν ἀνομίας, καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτοὶ ὡς μυκτηρίζοντες.

  [17] And he said to me, Son of man, thou hast seen this. Is it a little thing to the house of Juda to practise the iniquities which they have practised here? for they have filled the land with iniquity: and, behold, these are as scorners.

  [18] καὶ ἐγὼ ποιήσω αὐτοῖς μετὰ θυμοῦ· οὐ φείσεται ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου, οὐδὲ μὴ ἐλεήσω.

  [18] Therefore will I deal with them in wrath: mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy.

  CHAPTER 9

  [1] Καὶ ἀνέκραγεν εἰς τὰ ὦτά μου φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων Ἤγγικεν ἡ ἐκδίκησις τῆς πόλεως· καὶ ἕκαστος εἶχεν τὰ σκεύη τῆς ἐξολεθρεύσεως ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.

  [1] And he cried in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, The judgement of the city has drawn nigh; and each had the weapons of destruction in his hand.

  [2] καὶ ἰδοὺ ἓξ ἄνδρες ἤρχοντο ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ τῆς πύλης τῆς ὑψηλῆς τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν, καὶ ἑκάστου πέλυξ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἷς ἀνὴρ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν ἐνδεδυκὼς ποδήρη, καὶ ζώνη σαπφείρου ἐπὶ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἰσήλθοσαν καὶ ἔστησαν ἐχόμενοι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τοῦ χαλκοῦ.
