Jeremiah 43
1 And it came about that when Jeremiah had come to the end of giving all the people the words of the Lord their God, which the Lord their God had sent him to say to them, even all these words,
καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ τετάρτῳ Ιωακιμ υἱοῦ Ιωσια βασιλέως Ιουδα ἐγενήθη λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
2 Then Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men of pride, said to Jeremiah, You have said what is false: the Lord our God has not sent you to say, You are not to go into the land of Egypt and make your living-place there:
λαβὲ σεαυτῷ χαρτίον βιβλίου καὶ γράψον ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐχρημάτισα πρὸς σὲ ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἐπὶ Ιουδαν καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ἀφ’ ἧς ἡμέρας λαλήσαντός μου πρός σε ἀφ’ ἡμερῶν Ιωσια βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης
3 But Baruch, the son of Neriah, is moving you against us, to give us up into the hands of the Chaldaeans so that they may put us to death, and take us away prisoners into Babylon.
ἴσως ἀκούσεται ὁ οἶκος Ιουδα πάντα τὰ κακά ἃ ἐγὼ λογίζομαι ποιῆσαι αὐτοῖς ἵνα ἀποστρέψωσιν ἀπὸ ὁδοῦ αὐτῶν τῆς πονηρᾶς καὶ ἵλεως ἔσομαι ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτῶν καὶ ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις αὐτῶν
4 So Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, did not give ear to the order of the Lord that they were to go on living in the land of Judah.
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ιερεμιας τὸν Βαρουχ υἱὸν Νηριου καὶ ἔγραψεν ἀπὸ στόματος Ιερεμιου πάντας τοὺς λόγους κυρίου οὓς ἐχρημάτισεν πρὸς αὐτόν εἰς χαρτίον βιβλίου
5 But Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces took all the rest of Judah who had come back into the land of Judah from all the nations where they had been forced to go;
καὶ ἐνετείλατο Ιερεμιας τῷ Βαρουχ λέγων ἐγὼ φυλάσσομαι οὐ μὴ δύνωμαι εἰσελθεῖν εἰς οἶκον κυρίου
6 The men and the women and the children and the king's daughters, and every person whom Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had put under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch, the son of Neriah;
καὶ ἀναγνώσῃ ἐν τῷ χαρτίῳ τούτῳ εἰς τὰ ὦτα τοῦ λαοῦ ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ νηστείας καὶ ἐν ὠσὶ παντὸς Ιουδα τῶν ἐρχομένων ἐκ πόλεως αὐτῶν ἀναγνώσῃ αὐτοῖς
7 And they came into the land of Egypt; for they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: and they came to Tahpanhes.
ἴσως πεσεῖται ἔλεος αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπον κυρίου καὶ ἀποστρέψουσιν ἐκ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτῶν τῆς πονηρᾶς ὅτι μέγας ὁ θυμὸς καὶ ἡ ὀργὴ κυρίου ἣν ἐλάλησεν ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον
8 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
καὶ ἐποίησεν Βαρουχ κατὰ πάντα ἃ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ Ιερεμιας τοῦ ἀναγνῶναι ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ λόγους κυρίου ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου
9 Take in your hand some great stones, and put them in a safe place in the paste in the brickwork which is at the way into Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, before the eyes of the men of Judah;
καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ ὀγδόῳ βασιλεῖ Ιωακιμ τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἐνάτῳ ἐξεκκλησίασαν νηστείαν κατὰ πρόσωπον κυρίου πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ οἶκος Ιουδα
10 And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and he will put the seat of his kingdom on these stones which have been put in a safe place here by you; and his tent will be stretched over them.
καὶ ἀνεγίνωσκε Βαρουχ ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τοὺς λόγους Ιερεμιου ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου ἐν οἴκῳ Γαμαριου υἱοῦ Σαφαν τοῦ γραμματέως ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐπάνω ἐν προθύροις πύλης τοῦ οἴκου κυρίου τῆς καινῆς ἐν ὠσὶ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ
11 And he will come and overcome the land of Egypt; those who are for death will be put to death, those who are to be prisoners will be made prisoners, and those who are for the sword will be given to the sword.
καὶ ἤκουσεν Μιχαιας υἱὸς Γαμαριου υἱοῦ Σαφαν ἅπαντας τοὺς λόγους κυρίου ἐκ τοῦ βιβλίου
12 And he will put a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and they will be burned by him: and he will make Egypt clean as a keeper of sheep makes clean his clothing; and he will go out from there in peace.
καὶ κατέβη εἰς οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ γραμματέως καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες ἐκάθηντο Ελισαμα ὁ γραμματεὺς καὶ Δαλαιας υἱὸς Σελεμιου καὶ Ελναθαν υἱὸς Ακχοβωρ καὶ Γαμαριας υἱὸς Σαφαν καὶ Σεδεκιας υἱὸς Ανανιου καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες
13 And the stone pillars of Beth-shemesh in the land of Egypt will be broken by him, and the houses of the gods of Egypt burned with fire.
καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν αὐτοῖς Μιχαιας πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἤκουσεν ἀναγινώσκοντος τοῦ Βαρουχ εἰς τὰ ὦτα τοῦ λαοῦ
καὶ ἀπέστειλαν πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες πρὸς Βαρουχ υἱὸν Νηριου τὸν Ιουδιν υἱὸν Ναθανιου υἱοῦ Σελεμιου υἱοῦ Χουσι λέγοντες τὸ χαρτίον ἐν ᾧ σὺ ἀναγινώσκεις ἐν αὐτῷ ἐν ὠσὶ τοῦ λαοῦ λαβὲ αὐτὸ εἰς τὴν χεῖρά σου καὶ ἧκε καὶ ἔλαβεν Βαρουχ τὸ χαρτίον καὶ κατέβη πρὸς αὐτούς
καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ πάλιν ἀνάγνωθι εἰς τὰ ὦτα ἡμῶν καὶ ἀνέγνω Βαρουχ
καὶ ἐγενήθη ὡς ἤκουσαν πάντας τοὺς λόγους συνεβουλεύσαντο ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπαν ἀναγγέλλοντες ἀναγγείλωμεν τῷ βασιλεῖ ἅπαντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους
καὶ τὸν Βαρουχ ἠρώτησαν λέγοντες πόθεν ἔγραψας πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους
καὶ εἶπεν Βαρουχ ἀπὸ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἀνήγγειλέν μοι Ιερεμιας πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ ἔγραφον ἐν βιβλίῳ
καὶ εἶπαν τῷ Βαρουχ βάδισον κατακρύβηθι σὺ καὶ Ιερεμιας ἄνθρωπος μὴ γνώτω ποῦ ὑμεῖς
καὶ εἰσῆλθον πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς τὴν αὐλήν καὶ τὸ χαρτίον ἔδωκαν φυλάσσειν ἐν οἴκῳ Ελισαμα καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τῷ βασιλεῖ πάντας τοὺς λόγους
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸν Ιουδιν λαβεῖν τὸ χαρτίον καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὸ ἐξ οἴκου Ελισαμα καὶ ἀνέγνω Ιουδιν εἰς τὰ ὦτα τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ εἰς τὰ ὦτα πάντων τῶν ἀρχόντων τῶν ἑστηκότων περὶ τὸν βασιλέα
καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐκάθητο ἐν οἴκῳ χειμερινῷ καὶ ἐσχάρα πυρὸς κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ
καὶ ἐγενήθη ἀναγινώσκοντος Ιουδιν τρεῖς σελίδας καὶ τέσσαρας ἀπέτεμνεν αὐτὰς τῷ ξυρῷ τοῦ γραμματέως καὶ ἔρριπτεν εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ ἐπὶ τῆς ἐσχάρας ἕως ἐξέλιπεν πᾶς ὁ χάρτης εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ ἐπὶ τῆς ἐσχάρας
καὶ οὐκ ἐζήτησαν καὶ οὐ διέρρηξαν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ οἱ ἀκούοντες πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους
καὶ Ελναθαν καὶ Γοδολιας καὶ Γαμαριας ὑπέθεντο τῷ βασιλεῖ πρὸς τὸ μὴ κατακαῦσαι τὸ χαρτίον
καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Ιερεμεηλ υἱῷ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τῷ Σαραια υἱῷ Εσριηλ συλλαβεῖν τὸν Βαρουχ καὶ τὸν Ιερεμιαν καὶ κατεκρύβησαν
καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν μετὰ τὸ κατακαῦσαι τὸν βασιλέα τὸ χαρτίον πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἔγραψεν Βαρουχ ἀπὸ στόματος Ιερεμιου λέγων
πάλιν λαβὲ σὺ χαρτίον ἕτερον καὶ γράψον πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοὺς ὄντας ἐπὶ τοῦ χαρτίου οὓς κατέκαυσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιωακιμ
καὶ ἐρεῖς οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος σὺ κατέκαυσας τὸ χαρτίον τοῦτο λέγων διὰ τί ἔγραψας ἐπ’ αὐτῷ λέγων εἰσπορευόμενος εἰσπορεύσεται ὁ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσει τὴν γῆν ταύτην καὶ ἐκλείψει ἀπ’ αὐτῆς ἄνθρωπος καὶ κτήνη
διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἐπὶ Ιωακιμ βασιλέα Ιουδα οὐκ ἔσται αὐτῷ καθήμενος ἐπὶ θρόνου Δαυιδ καὶ τὸ θνησιμαῖον αὐτοῦ ἔσται ἐρριμμένον ἐν τῷ καύματι τῆς ἡμέρας καὶ ἐν τῷ παγετῷ τῆς νυκτός
καὶ ἐπισκέψομαι ἐπ’ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ γένος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάξω ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆν Ιουδα πάντα τὰ κακά ἃ ἐλάλησα πρὸς αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν
καὶ ἔλαβεν Βαρουχ χαρτίον ἕτερον καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἀπὸ στόματος Ιερεμιου ἅπαντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ βιβλίου οὗ κατέκαυσεν Ιωακιμ καὶ ἔτι προσετέθησαν αὐτῷ λόγοι πλείονες ὡς οὗτοι
