Ezekiel 33
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
2 “Son of man, speak to the sons of your people, and you have said to them: When I bring a sword on a land, And the people of the land have taken one man out of their borders, And made him their watchman,
υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς τοῦ λαοῦ σου καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς γῆ ἐφ’ ἣν ἂν ἐπάγω ῥομφαίαν καὶ λάβῃ ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς ἄνθρωπον ἕνα ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ δῶσιν αὐτὸν ἑαυτοῖς εἰς σκοπόν
3 And he has seen the sword coming against the land, And has blown with a horn, and has warned the people,
καὶ ἴδῃ τὴν ῥομφαίαν ἐρχομένην ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ σαλπίσῃ τῇ σάλπιγγι καὶ σημάνῃ τῷ λαῷ
4 And the hearer has heard the voice of the horn, and he has not taken warning, And the sword comes in, and takes him away, His blood is on his [own] head.
καὶ ἀκούσῃ ὁ ἀκούσας τὴν φωνὴν τῆς σάλπιγγος καὶ μὴ φυλάξηται καὶ ἐπέλθῃ ἡ ῥομφαία καὶ καταλάβῃ αὐτόν τὸ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἔσται
5 The voice of the horn he heard, And he has not taken warning, his blood is on him, And he who took warning has delivered his soul.
ὅτι τὴν φωνὴν τῆς σάλπιγγος ἀκούσας οὐκ ἐφυλάξατο τὸ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ ἔσται καὶ οὗτος ὅτι ἐφυλάξατο τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἐξείλατο
6 And the watchman, when he sees the sword coming in, And he has not blown with a horn, And the people have not been warned, And a sword comes in, And takes away a soul from them, He is taken away in his iniquity, And I require his blood from the hand of the watchman.
καὶ ὁ σκοπός ἐὰν ἴδῃ τὴν ῥομφαίαν ἐρχομένην καὶ μὴ σημάνῃ τῇ σάλπιγγι καὶ ὁ λαὸς μὴ φυλάξηται καὶ ἐλθοῦσα ἡ ῥομφαία λάβῃ ἐξ αὐτῶν ψυχήν αὕτη διὰ τὴν αὑτῆς ἀνομίαν ἐλήμφθη καὶ τὸ αἷμα ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ σκοποῦ ἐκζητήσω
7 And you, son of man, I gave you [as] a watchman for the house of Israel, And you have heard a word from My mouth, And you have warned them from Me.
καὶ σύ υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου σκοπὸν δέδωκά σε τῷ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ καὶ ἀκούσῃ ἐκ στόματός μου λόγον
8 In My saying to the wicked, O wicked one—you surely die, And you have not spoken to warn the wicked from his way, He—the wicked—dies in his iniquity, And I require his blood from your hand.
ἐν τῷ εἶπαί με τῷ ἁμαρτωλῷ θανάτῳ θανατωθήσῃ καὶ μὴ λαλήσῃς τοῦ φυλάξασθαι τὸν ἀσεβῆ ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ αὐτὸς ὁ ἄνομος τῇ ἀνομίᾳ αὐτοῦ ἀποθανεῖται τὸ δὲ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῆς χειρός σου ἐκζητήσω
9 And you, when you have warned the wicked of his way, to turn back from it, And he has not turned back from his way, He dies in his iniquity, And you have delivered your soul.
σὺ δὲ ἐὰν προαπαγγείλῃς τῷ ἀσεβεῖ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι ἀπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ μὴ ἀποστρέψῃ ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ οὗτος τῇ ἀσεβείᾳ αὐτοῦ ἀποθανεῖται καὶ σὺ τὴν ψυχὴν σαυτοῦ ἐξῄρησαι
10 And you, son of man, say to the house of Israel: You have spoken correctly, saying, Surely our transgressions and our sins [are] on us, And we are wasting away in them, How, then, do we live?
καὶ σύ υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου εἰπὸν τῷ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ οὕτως ἐλαλήσατε λέγοντες αἱ πλάναι ἡμῶν καὶ αἱ ἀνομίαι ἡμῶν ἐφ’ ἡμῖν εἰσιν καὶ ἐν αὐταῖς ἡμεῖς τηκόμεθα καὶ πῶς ζησόμεθα
11 Say to them, [As] I live—a declaration of Lord YHWH, I do not delight in the death of the wicked, But in the turning of the wicked from his way, and he has lived. Turn back, turn back, from your evil ways! Indeed, why do you die, O house of Israel?
εἰπὸν αὐτοῖς ζῶ ἐγώ τάδε λέγει κύριος οὐ βούλομαι τὸν θάνατον τοῦ ἀσεβοῦς ὡς τὸ ἀποστρέψαι τὸν ἀσεβῆ ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ζῆν αὐτόν ἀποστροφῇ ἀποστρέψατε ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ ὑμῶν καὶ ἵνα τί ἀποθνῄσκετε οἶκος Ισραηλ
12 And you, son of man, say to the sons of your people: The righteousness of the righteous does not deliver him in the day of his transgression, And the wickedness of the wicked, He does not stumble for it in the day of his turning from his wickedness, And the righteous is not able to live in it in the day of his sinning.
εἰπὸν πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ λαοῦ σου δικαιοσύνη δικαίου οὐ μὴ ἐξέληται αὐτὸν ἐν ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ πλανηθῇ καὶ ἀνομία ἀσεβοῦς οὐ μὴ κακώσῃ αὐτὸν ἐν ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ ἀποστρέψῃ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας αὐτοῦ καὶ δίκαιος οὐ μὴ δύνηται σωθῆναι
13 In My saying of the righteous: He surely lives, And—he has trusted on his righteousness, And he has done perversity, All his righteous acts are not remembered, And for his perversity that he has done, He dies for it.
ἐν τῷ εἶπαί με τῷ δικαίῳ οὗτος πέποιθεν ἐπὶ τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ αὐτοῦ καὶ ποιήσῃ ἀνομίαν πᾶσαι αἱ δικαιοσύναι αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ ἀναμνησθῶσιν ἐν τῇ ἀδικίᾳ αὐτοῦ ᾗ ἐποίησεν ἐν αὐτῇ ἀποθανεῖται
14 And in My saying to the wicked: You surely die, And—he has turned back from his sin, And has done judgment and righteousness,
καὶ ἐν τῷ εἶπαί με τῷ ἀσεβεῖ θανάτῳ θανατωθήσῃ καὶ ἀποστρέψῃ ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ποιήσῃ κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην
15 (The wicked restores a pledge, he repays [for] plunder), He has walked in the statutes of life, So as not to do perversity, He surely lives—he does not die.
καὶ ἐνεχύρασμα ἀποδῷ καὶ ἅρπαγμα ἀποτείσῃ ἐν προστάγμασιν ζωῆς διαπορεύηται τοῦ μὴ ποιῆσαι ἄδικον ζωῇ ζήσεται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃ
16 All his sin—his sins that he has sinned—are not remembered against him, He has done judgment and righteousness, He surely lives.
πᾶσαι αἱ ἁμαρτίαι αὐτοῦ ἃς ἥμαρτεν οὐ μὴ ἀναμνησθῶσιν ὅτι κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην ἐποίησεν ἐν αὐτοῖς ζήσεται
17 And the sons of your people have said: The way of the Lord is not pondered, As for them—their way is not pondered.
καὶ ἐροῦσιν οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου οὐκ εὐθεῖα ἡ ὁδὸς τοῦ κυρίου καὶ αὕτη ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν οὐκ εὐθεῖα
18 In the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, And he has done perversity—he dies for it.
ἐν τῷ ἀποστρέψαι δίκαιον ἀπὸ τῆς δικαιοσύνης αὐτοῦ καὶ ποιήσῃ ἀνομίας καὶ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν αὐταῖς
19 And in the turning back of the wicked from his wickedness, And he has done judgment and righteousness—he lives by them.
καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀποστρέψαι τὸν ἁμαρτωλὸν ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ποιήσῃ κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην ἐν αὐτοῖς αὐτὸς ζήσεται
20 And you have said, The way of the Lord is not pondered; I judge each of you according to his ways, O house of Israel.”
καὶ τοῦτό ἐστιν ὃ εἴπατε οὐκ εὐθεῖα ἡ ὁδὸς κυρίου ἕκαστον ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ κρινῶ ὑμᾶς οἶκος Ισραηλ
21 And it comes to pass, in the twelfth year—in the tenth [month], in the fifth of the month—of our removal, one who is escaped from Jerusalem comes to me, saying, “The city has been struck.”
καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ μηνὶ πέμπτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας ἡμῶν ἦλθεν ὁ ἀνασωθεὶς πρός με ἀπὸ Ιερουσαλημ λέγων ἑάλω ἡ πόλις
22 And the hand of YHWH has been to me in the evening, before the coming in of the escaped one, and He opens my mouth until [his] coming to me in the morning, and my mouth is opened, and I have not been silent again.
καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐπ’ ἐμὲ χεὶρ κυρίου ἑσπέρας πρὶν ἐλθεῖν αὐτὸν καὶ ἤνοιξέν μου τὸ στόμα ἕως ἦλθεν πρός με τὸ πρωί καὶ ἀνοιχθέν μου τὸ στόμα οὐ συνεσχέθη ἔτι
23 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
καὶ ἐγενήθη λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
24 “Son of man, the inhabitants of these ruins on the ground of Israel are speaking, saying, Abraham has been alone—and he possesses the land, and we [are] many—the land has been given to us for a possession.
υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὰς ἠρημωμένας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς τοῦ Ισραηλ λέγουσιν εἷς ἦν Αβρααμ καὶ κατέσχεν τὴν γῆν καὶ ἡμεῖς πλείους ἐσμέν ἡμῖν δέδοται ἡ γῆ εἰς κατάσχεσιν
25 Therefore say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: You eat with the blood, And you lift up your eyes to your idols, And you shed blood, Should you then inherit the land?
διὰ τοῦτο εἰπὸν αὐτοῖς τάδε λέγει κύριος κύριος
26 You have stood on your sword, You have done abomination, You have each defiled the wife of his neighbor, Should you then possess the land?
27 Thus you say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: [As] I live—do they who [are] in the ruins not fall by the sword? And they who [are] on the face of the field, I have given for food to the beast, And they who are in strongholds and in caves die by pestilence.
ζῶ ἐγώ εἰ μὴν οἱ ἐν ταῖς ἠρημωμέναις μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ οἱ ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ πεδίου τοῖς θηρίοις τοῦ ἀγροῦ δοθήσονται εἰς κατάβρωμα καὶ τοὺς ἐν ταῖς τετειχισμέναις καὶ τοὺς ἐν τοῖς σπηλαίοις θανάτῳ ἀποκτενῶ
28 And I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, And the excellence of its strength has ceased, And mountains of Israel have been desolated, Without anyone passing through.
καὶ δώσω τὴν γῆν ἔρημον καὶ ἀπολεῖται ἡ ὕβρις τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτῆς καὶ ἐρημωθήσεται τὰ ὄρη τοῦ Ισραηλ διὰ τὸ μὴ εἶναι διαπορευόμενον
29 And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My making the land a desolation and an astonishment, For all their abominations that they have done.
καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος καὶ ποιήσω τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν ἔρημον καὶ ἐρημωθήσεται διὰ πάντα τὰ βδελύγματα αὐτῶν ἃ ἐποίησαν
30 And you, son of man, The sons of your people who are speaking about you, By the walls, and in openings of the houses, Have spoken with one another, each with his brother, Saying, Please come in, And hear what the word [is] that comes out from YHWH.
καὶ σύ υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου οἱ λαλοῦντες περὶ σοῦ παρὰ τὰ τείχη καὶ ἐν τοῖς πυλῶσι τῶν οἰκιῶν καὶ λαλοῦσιν ἄνθρωπος τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ λέγοντες συνέλθωμεν καὶ ἀκούσωμεν τὰ ἐκπορευόμενα παρὰ κυρίου
31 And they come in to you as the coming in of a people, And they sit before you—My people, And have heard your words, and they do not do them, For they are making unhealthy loves with their mouth, Their heart is going after their dishonest gain.
ἔρχονται πρὸς σέ ὡς συμπορεύεται λαός καὶ κάθηνται ἐναντίον σου καὶ ἀκούουσιν τὰ ῥήματά σου καὶ αὐτὰ οὐ μὴ ποιήσουσιν ὅτι ψεῦδος ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν καὶ ὀπίσω τῶν μιασμάτων ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν
32 And behold, you [are] as a singer of unhealthy loves to them, A beautiful voice, and playing well on an instrument, And they have heard your words, and they are not doing them.
καὶ γίνῃ αὐτοῖς ὡς φωνὴ ψαλτηρίου ἡδυφώνου εὐαρμόστου καὶ ἀκούσονταί σου τὰ ῥήματα καὶ οὐ μὴ ποιήσουσιν αὐτά
33 And in its coming in—behold, it has come, And they have known that a prophet has been in their midst!”
καὶ ἡνίκα ἂν ἔλθῃ ἐροῦσιν ἰδοὺ ἥκει καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι προφήτης ἦν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν
