< Jeremiah 39 >

1 In the ninth yeere of Zedekiah King of Iudah in the tenth moneth, came Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and they besieged it.
ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος παρὰ κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ δεκάτῳ τῷ βασιλεῖ Σεδεκια οὗτος ἐνιαυτὸς ὀκτωκαιδέκατος τῷ βασιλεῖ Ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος
2 And in the eleuenth yeere of Zedekiah in the fourth moneth, the ninth day of the moneth, the citie was broken vp.
καὶ δύναμις βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἐχαράκωσεν ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ Ιερεμιας ἐφυλάσσετο ἐν αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς ἥ ἐστιν ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ βασιλέως
3 And all the princes of the King of Babel came in, and sate in the middle gate, euen Neregal, Sharezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim, Rab-saris, Neregal, Sharezer, Rab-mag with all the residue of the princes of the King of Babel.
ἐν ᾗ κατέκλεισεν αὐτὸν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σεδεκιας λέγων διὰ τί σὺ προφητεύεις λέγων οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δίδωμι τὴν πόλιν ταύτην ἐν χερσὶν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ λήμψεται αὐτήν
4 And when Zedekiah the King of Iudah saw them, and all the men of warre, then they fled, and went out of the citie by night, through the Kings garden, and by the gate betweene the two walles, and he went toward the wildernes.
καὶ Σεδεκιας οὐ μὴ σωθῇ ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν Χαλδαίων ὅτι παραδόσει παραδοθήσεται εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ λαλήσει στόμα αὐτοῦ πρὸς στόμα αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ὄψονται
5 But the Caldeans hoste pursued after them, and ouertooke Zedekiah in the desart of Iericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him to Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel vnto Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gaue iudgement vpon him.
καὶ εἰσελεύσεται Σεδεκιας εἰς Βαβυλῶνα καὶ ἐκεῖ καθιεῖται
6 Then the King of Babel slewe the sonnes of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the King of Babel slewe all the nobles of Iudah.
καὶ λόγος κυρίου ἐγενήθη πρὸς Ιερεμιαν λέγων
7 Moreouer he put out Zedekiahs eyes, and bound him in chaines, to cary him to Babel.
ἰδοὺ Αναμεηλ υἱὸς Σαλωμ ἀδελφοῦ πατρός σου ἔρχεται πρὸς σὲ λέγων κτῆσαι σεαυτῷ τὸν ἀγρόν μου τὸν ἐν Αναθωθ ὅτι σοὶ κρίμα παραλαβεῖν εἰς κτῆσιν
8 And the Caldeans burnt the Kings house, and the houses of the people with fire, and brake downe the walles of Ierusalem.
καὶ ἦλθεν πρός με Αναμεηλ υἱὸς Σαλωμ ἀδελφοῦ πατρός μου εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ εἶπέν μοι κτῆσαι τὸν ἀγρόν μου τὸν ἐν γῇ Βενιαμιν τὸν ἐν Αναθωθ ὅτι σοὶ κρίμα κτήσασθαι καὶ σὺ πρεσβύτερος καὶ ἔγνων ὅτι λόγος κυρίου ἐστίν
9 Then Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde caried away captiue into Babel the remnant of the people, that remained in the citie, and those that were fled and fallen vnto him, with the rest of the people that remained.
καὶ ἐκτησάμην τὸν ἀγρὸν Αναμεηλ υἱοῦ ἀδελφοῦ πατρός μου καὶ ἔστησα αὐτῷ ἑπτὰ σίκλους καὶ δέκα ἀργυρίου
10 But Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward left the poore that had nothing in the land of Iudah, and gaue them vineyards and fieldes at the same time.
καὶ ἔγραψα εἰς βιβλίον καὶ ἐσφραγισάμην καὶ διεμαρτυράμην μάρτυρας καὶ ἔστησα τὸ ἀργύριον ἐν ζυγῷ
11 Nowe Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel gaue charge concerning Ieremiah vnto Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde, saying,
καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ βιβλίον τῆς κτήσεως τὸ ἐσφραγισμένον καὶ τὸ ἀνεγνωσμένον
12 Take him, and looke well to him, and doe him no harme, but doe vnto him euen as he shall say vnto thee.
καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτὸ τῷ Βαρουχ υἱῷ Νηριου υἱοῦ Μαασαιου κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς Αναμεηλ υἱοῦ ἀδελφοῦ πατρός μου καὶ κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς τῶν ἑστηκότων καὶ γραφόντων ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τῆς κτήσεως καὶ κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς τῶν Ιουδαίων τῶν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς
13 So Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward sent, and Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Neregal, Sharezar, Rab-mag, and all the King of Babels princes:
καὶ συνέταξα τῷ Βαρουχ κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν λέγων
14 Euen they sent, and tooke Ieremiah out of the court of the prison, and committed him vnto Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, that he should cary him home: so he dwelt among the people.
οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος παντοκράτωρ λαβὲ τὸ βιβλίον τῆς κτήσεως τοῦτο καὶ τὸ βιβλίον τὸ ἀνεγνωσμένον καὶ θήσεις αὐτὸ εἰς ἀγγεῖον ὀστράκινον ἵνα διαμείνῃ ἡμέρας πλείους
15 Now the worde of the Lord came vnto Ieremiah, while he was shut vp in the court of the prison, saying,
ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἔτι κτηθήσονται ἀγροὶ καὶ οἰκίαι καὶ ἀμπελῶνες ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ
16 Go and speake to Ebed-melech the blacke More, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Beholde, I wil bring my wordes vpon this citie for euill, and not for good, and they shalbe accomplished in that day before thee.
καὶ προσευξάμην πρὸς κύριον μετὰ τὸ δοῦναί με τὸ βιβλίον τῆς κτήσεως πρὸς Βαρουχ υἱὸν Νηριου λέγων
17 But I wil deliuer thee in that day, saith the Lord, and thou shalt not be giuen into the hand of the men whome thou fearest.
ὦ κύριε σὺ ἐποίησας τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν τῇ ἰσχύι σου τῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ τῷ βραχίονί σου τῷ ὑψηλῷ καὶ τῷ μετεώρῳ οὐ μὴ ἀποκρυβῇ ἀπὸ σοῦ οὐθέν
18 For I will surely deliuer thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sworde, but thy life shall be for a praye vnto thee, because thou hast put thy trust in me, sayth the Lord.
ποιῶν ἔλεος εἰς χιλιάδας καὶ ἀποδιδοὺς ἁμαρτίας πατέρων εἰς κόλπους τέκνων αὐτῶν μετ’ αὐτούς ὁ θεὸς ὁ μέγας καὶ ἰσχυρός
κύριος μεγάλης βουλῆς καὶ δυνατὸς τοῖς ἔργοις ὁ θεὸς ὁ μέγας ὁ παντοκράτωρ καὶ μεγαλώνυμος κύριος οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου εἰς τὰς ὁδοὺς τῶν υἱῶν τῶν ἀνθρώπων δοῦναι ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ
ὃς ἐποίησας σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης καὶ ἐν Ισραηλ καὶ ἐν τοῖς γηγενέσιν καὶ ἐποίησας σεαυτῷ ὄνομα ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη
καὶ ἐξήγαγες τὸν λαόν σου Ισραηλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἐν σημείοις καὶ ἐν τέρασιν καὶ ἐν χειρὶ κραταιᾷ καὶ ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ καὶ ἐν ὁράμασιν μεγάλοις
καὶ ἔδωκας αὐτοῖς τὴν γῆν ταύτην ἣν ὤμοσας τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι
καὶ εἰσήλθοσαν καὶ ἐλάβοσαν αὐτὴν καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν τῆς φωνῆς σου καὶ ἐν τοῖς προστάγμασίν σου οὐκ ἐπορεύθησαν ἅπαντα ἃ ἐνετείλω αὐτοῖς οὐκ ἐποίησαν καὶ ἐποίησας συμβῆναι αὐτοῖς πάντα τὰ κακὰ ταῦτα
ἰδοὺ ὄχλος ἥκει εἰς τὴν πόλιν ταύτην συλλαβεῖν αὐτήν καὶ ἡ πόλις ἐδόθη εἰς χεῖρας Χαλδαίων τῶν πολεμούντων αὐτὴν ἀπὸ προσώπου μαχαίρας καὶ τοῦ λιμοῦ ὡς ἐλάλησας οὕτως ἐγένετο
καὶ σὺ λέγεις πρός με κτῆσαι σεαυτῷ ἀγρὸν ἀργυρίου καὶ ἔγραψα βιβλίον καὶ ἐσφραγισάμην καὶ ἐπεμαρτυράμην μάρτυρας καὶ ἡ πόλις ἐδόθη εἰς χεῖρας Χαλδαίων
καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς πάσης σαρκός μὴ ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ κρυβήσεταί τι
διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ δοθεῖσα παραδοθήσεται ἡ πόλις αὕτη εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ λήμψεται αὐτήν
καὶ ἥξουσιν οἱ Χαλδαῖοι πολεμοῦντες ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην καὶ καύσουσιν τὴν πόλιν ταύτην ἐν πυρὶ καὶ κατακαύσουσιν τὰς οἰκίας ἐν αἷς ἐθυμιῶσαν ἐπὶ τῶν δωμάτων αὐτῶν τῇ Βααλ καὶ ἔσπενδον σπονδὰς θεοῖς ἑτέροις πρὸς τὸ παραπικρᾶναί με
ὅτι ἦσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ιουδα μόνοι ποιοῦντες τὸ πονηρὸν κατ’ ὀφθαλμούς μου ἐκ νεότητος αὐτῶν
ὅτι ἐπὶ τὴν ὀργήν μου καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν θυμόν μου ἦν ἡ πόλις αὕτη ἀφ’ ἧς ἡμέρας ᾠκοδόμησαν αὐτὴν καὶ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης ἀπαλλάξαι αὐτὴν ἀπὸ προσώπου μου
διὰ πάσας τὰς πονηρίας τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα ὧν ἐποίησαν πικρᾶναί με αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ προφῆται αὐτῶν ἄνδρες Ιουδα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιερουσαλημ
καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν πρός με νῶτον καὶ οὐ πρόσωπον καὶ ἐδίδαξα αὐτοὺς ὄρθρου καὶ ἐδίδαξα καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν ἐπιλαβεῖν παιδείαν
καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰ μιάσματα αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ οὗ ἐπεκλήθη τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἐν ἀκαθαρσίαις αὐτῶν
καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν τοὺς βωμοὺς τῇ Βααλ τοὺς ἐν φάραγγι υἱοῦ Εννομ τοῦ ἀναφέρειν τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν τῷ Μολοχ βασιλεῖ ἃ οὐ συνέταξα αὐτοῖς καὶ οὐκ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ καρδίαν μου τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ βδέλυγμα τοῦτο πρὸς τὸ ἐφαμαρτεῖν τὸν Ιουδαν
καὶ νῦν οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ἣν σὺ λέγεις παραδοθήσεται εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ καὶ ἐν ἀποστολῇ
ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ συνάγω αὐτοὺς ἐκ πάσης τῆς γῆς οὗ διέσπειρα αὐτοὺς ἐκεῖ ἐν ὀργῇ μου καὶ τῷ θυμῷ μου καὶ παροξυσμῷ μεγάλῳ καὶ ἐπιστρέψω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον καὶ καθιῶ αὐτοὺς πεποιθότας
καὶ ἔσονταί μοι εἰς λαόν καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς εἰς θεόν
καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς ὁδὸν ἑτέραν καὶ καρδίαν ἑτέραν φοβηθῆναί με πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας εἰς ἀγαθὸν αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτῶν μετ’ αὐτούς
καὶ διαθήσομαι αὐτοῖς διαθήκην αἰωνίαν ἣν οὐ μὴ ἀποστρέψω ὄπισθεν αὐτῶν καὶ τὸν φόβον μου δώσω εἰς τὴν καρδίαν αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἀποστῆναι αὐτοὺς ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ
καὶ ἐπισκέψομαι τοῦ ἀγαθῶσαι αὐτοὺς καὶ φυτεύσω αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ ἐν πίστει καὶ ἐν πάσῃ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἐν πάσῃ ψυχῇ
ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος καθὰ ἐπήγαγον ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον πάντα τὰ κακὰ τὰ μεγάλα ταῦτα οὕτως ἐγὼ ἐπάξω ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς πάντα τὰ ἀγαθά ἃ ἐλάλησα ἐπ’ αὐτούς
καὶ κτηθήσονται ἔτι ἀγροὶ ἐν τῇ γῇ ᾗ σὺ λέγεις ἄβατός ἐστιν ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων καὶ κτήνους καὶ παρεδόθησαν εἰς χεῖρας Χαλδαίων
καὶ κτήσονται ἀγροὺς ἐν ἀργυρίῳ καὶ γράψεις βιβλίον καὶ σφραγιῇ καὶ διαμαρτυρῇ μάρτυρας ἐν γῇ Βενιαμιν καὶ κύκλῳ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν Ιουδα καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν τοῦ ὄρους καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν τῆς Σεφηλα καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν τῆς Ναγεβ ὅτι ἀποστρέψω τὰς ἀποικίας αὐτῶν
