Δευτερονόμιον 26

1 καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν εἰσέλθῃς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν κύριος ὁ θεός σου δίδωσίν σοι ἐν κλήρῳ καὶ κατακληρονομήσῃς αὐτὴν καὶ κατοικήσῃς ἐπ’ αὐτῆς

And it shall be when thou comest into the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein,

2 καὶ λήμψῃ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀπαρχῆς τῶν καρπῶν τῆς γῆς σου ἧς κύριος ὁ θεός σου δίδωσίν σοι καὶ ἐμβαλεῖς εἰς κάρταλλον καὶ πορεύσῃ εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ

that thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which thou shalt bring of thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and shalt put it in a basket, and shalt go unto the place that Jehovah thy God will choose to cause his name to dwell there;

3 καὶ ἐλεύσῃ πρὸς τὸν ἱερέα ὃς ἐὰν ᾖ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτόν ἀναγγέλλω σήμερον κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ μου ὅτι εἰσελήλυθα εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ὤμοσεν κύριος τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν δοῦναι ἡμῖν

and thou shalt come unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto Jehovah thy God, that I am come unto the land that Jehovah swore unto our fathers to give us.

4 καὶ λήμψεται ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸν κάρταλλον ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν σου καὶ θήσει αὐτὸν ἀπέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου

And the priest shall take the basket out of thy hand, and set it down before the altar of Jehovah thy God.

5 καὶ ἀποκριθήσῃ καὶ ἐρεῖς ἔναντι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου Συρίαν ἀπέβαλεν ὁ πατήρ μου καὶ κατέβη εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ παρῴκησεν ἐκεῖ ἐν ἀριθμῷ βραχεῖ καὶ ἐγένετο ἐκεῖ εἰς ἔθνος μέγα καὶ πλῆθος πολὺ καὶ μέγα

And thou shalt speak and say before Jehovah thy God, A perishing Aramaean was my father, and he went down to Egypt with a few, and sojourned there, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

6 καὶ ἐκάκωσαν ἡμᾶς οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καὶ ἐταπείνωσαν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἡμῖν ἔργα σκληρά

And the Egyptians evil-entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage;

7 καὶ ἀνεβοήσαμεν πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεὸν τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν καὶ εἰσήκουσεν κύριος τῆς φωνῆς ἡμῶν καὶ εἶδεν τὴν ταπείνωσιν ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν μόχθον ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν θλιμμὸν ἡμῶν

and we cried to Jehovah, the God of our fathers, and Jehovah heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression;

8 καὶ ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς κύριος ἐξ Αἰγύπτου αὐτὸς ἐν ἰσχύι μεγάλῃ καὶ ἐν χειρὶ κραταιᾷ καὶ ἐν βραχίονι αὐτοῦ τῷ ὑψηλῷ καὶ ἐν ὁράμασιν μεγάλοις καὶ ἐν σημείοις καὶ ἐν τέρασιν

and Jehovah brought us forth out of Egypt with a powerful hand, and with a stretched-out arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders;

9 καὶ εἰσήγαγεν ἡμᾶς εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον καὶ ἔδωκεν ἡμῖν τὴν γῆν ταύτην γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι

and he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey!

10 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἐνήνοχα τὴν ἀπαρχὴν τῶν γενημάτων τῆς γῆς ἧς ἔδωκάς μοι κύριε γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι καὶ ἀφήσεις αὐτὰ ἀπέναντι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου καὶ προσκυνήσεις ἐκεῖ ἔναντι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου

And now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruits of the land, which thou, Jehovah, hast given me. And thou shalt set it down before Jehovah thy God, and worship before Jehovah thy God.

11 καὶ εὐφρανθήσῃ ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς οἷς ἔδωκέν σοι κύριος ὁ θεός σου καὶ τῇ οἰκίᾳ σου σὺ καὶ ὁ Λευίτης καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος ὁ ἐν σοί

And thou shalt rejoice in all the good that Jehovah thy God hath given to thee, and to thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the stranger that is in thy midst.

12 ἐὰν δὲ συντελέσῃς ἀποδεκατῶσαι πᾶν τὸ ἐπιδέκατον τῶν γενημάτων τῆς γῆς σου ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τρίτῳ τὸ δεύτερον ἐπιδέκατον δώσεις τῷ Λευίτῃ καὶ τῷ προσηλύτῳ καὶ τῷ ὀρφανῷ καὶ τῇ χήρᾳ καὶ φάγονται ἐν ταῖς πόλεσίν σου καὶ ἐμπλησθήσονται

When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thy produce in the third year, the year of tithing, thou shalt give it to the Levite, to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat in thy gates, and be filled;

13 καὶ ἐρεῖς ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου ἐξεκάθαρα τὰ ἅγια ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας μου καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτὰ τῷ Λευίτῃ καὶ τῷ προσηλύτῳ καὶ τῷ ὀρφανῷ καὶ τῇ χήρᾳ κατὰ πάσας τὰς ἐντολάς ἃς ἐνετείλω μοι οὐ παρῆλθον τὴν ἐντολήν σου καὶ οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην

and thou shalt say before Jehovah thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of the house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandment which thou hast commanded me; I have not transgressed nor forgotten [any] of thy commandments:

14 καὶ οὐκ ἔφαγον ἐν ὀδύνῃ μου ἀπ’ αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐκάρπωσα ἀπ’ αὐτῶν εἰς ἀκάθαρτον οὐκ ἔδωκα ἀπ’ αὐτῶν τῷ τεθνηκότι ὑπήκουσα τῆς φωνῆς κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ μου ἐποίησα καθὰ ἐνετείλω μοι

I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I brought away thereof in uncleanness, nor given thereof for a dead person; I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah my God; I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.

15 κάτιδε ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ἁγίου σου ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησον τὸν λαόν σου τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκας αὐτοῖς καθὰ ὤμοσας τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν δοῦναι ἡμῖν γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι

Look down from thy holy habitation, from the heavens, and bless thy people Israel, and the land that thou hast given us as thou didst swear unto our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey!

16 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐνετείλατό σοι ποιῆσαι πάντα τὰ δικαιώματα ταῦτα καὶ τὰ κρίματα καὶ φυλάξεσθε καὶ ποιήσετε αὐτὰ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς ὑμῶν

This day Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to do these statutes and ordinances; and thou shalt keep and do them with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

17 τὸν θεὸν εἵλου σήμερον εἶναί σου θεὸν καὶ πορεύεσθαι ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ φυλάσσεσθαι τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ καὶ ὑπακούειν τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ

Thou hast this day accepted Jehovah to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and to hearken unto his voice;

18 καὶ κύριος εἵλατό σε σήμερον γενέσθαι σε αὐτῷ λαὸν περιούσιον καθάπερ εἶπέν σοι φυλάσσειν πάσας τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ

and Jehovah hath accepted thee this day to be a people of possession to him, as he hath told thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments,

19 καὶ εἶναί σε ὑπεράνω πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν ὡς ἐποίησέν σε ὀνομαστὸν καὶ καύχημα καὶ δόξαστόν εἶναί σε λαὸν ἅγιον κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σου καθὼς ἐλάλησεν

so that he should make thee high above all the nations which he hath made, in praise and in name and in honour; and that thou shouldest be a holy people to Jehovah thy God, as he hath said.
