< Ἰεζεκιήλ 32 >
1 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
In the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, “the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου λαβὲ θρῆνον ἐπὶ Φαραω βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτῷ λέοντι ἐθνῶν ὡμοιώθης καὶ σὺ ὡς δράκων ὁ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ καὶ ἐκεράτιζες τοῖς ποταμοῖς σου καὶ ἐτάρασσες ὕδωρ τοῖς ποσίν σου καὶ κατεπάτεις τοὺς ποταμούς σου
‘Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh king of Egypt, and tell him, “You were likened to a young lion of the nations; yet you are as a monster in the seas. You broke out with your rivers, and troubled the waters with your feet, and fouled their rivers.”
3 τάδε λέγει κύριος καὶ περιβαλῶ ἐπὶ σὲ δίκτυα λαῶν πολλῶν καὶ ἀνάξω σε ἐν τῷ ἀγκίστρῳ μου
The Lord GOD says: “I will spread out my net on you with a company of many peoples. They will bring you up in my net.
4 καὶ ἐκτενῶ σε ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν πεδία πλησθήσεταί σου καὶ ἐπικαθιῶ ἐπὶ σὲ πάντα τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐμπλήσω ἐκ σοῦ πάντα τὰ θηρία πάσης τῆς γῆς
I will leave you on the land. I will cast you out on the open field, and will cause all the birds of the sky to settle on you. I will satisfy the animals of the whole earth with you.
5 καὶ δώσω τὰς σάρκας σου ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη καὶ ἐμπλήσω ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματός σου
I will lay your flesh on the mountains, and fill the valleys with your height.
6 καὶ ποτισθήσεται ἡ γῆ ἀπὸ τῶν προχωρημάτων σου ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους σου ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων φάραγγας ἐμπλήσω ἀπὸ σοῦ
I will also water the land in which you swim with your blood, even to the mountains. The watercourses will be full of you.
7 καὶ κατακαλύψω ἐν τῷ σβεσθῆναί σε οὐρανὸν καὶ συσκοτάσω τὰ ἄστρα αὐτοῦ ἥλιον ἐν νεφέλῃ καλύψω καὶ σελήνη οὐ μὴ φάνῃ τὸ φῶς αὐτῆς
When I extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and make its stars dark. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon won’t give its light.
8 πάντα τὰ φαίνοντα φῶς ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ συσκοτάσουσιν ἐπὶ σέ καὶ δώσω σκότος ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν σου λέγει κύριος κύριος
I will make all the bright lights of the sky dark over you, and set darkness on your land,” says the Lord GOD.
9 καὶ παροργιῶ καρδίαν λαῶν πολλῶν ἡνίκα ἂν ἄγω αἰχμαλωσίαν σου εἰς τὰ ἔθνη εἰς γῆν ἣν οὐκ ἔγνως
“I will also trouble the hearts of many peoples, when I bring your destruction amongst the nations, into the countries which you have not known.
10 καὶ στυγνάσουσιν ἐπὶ σὲ ἔθνη πολλά καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν ἐκστάσει ἐκστήσονται ἐν τῷ πέτασθαι τὴν ῥομφαίαν μου ἐπὶ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν προσδεχόμενοι τὴν πτῶσιν αὐτῶν ἀφ’ ἡμέρας πτώσεώς σου
Yes, I will make many peoples amazed at you, and their kings will be horribly afraid for you, when I brandish my sword before them. They will tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of your fall.”
11 ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος ῥομφαία βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἥξει σοι
For the Lord GOD says: “The sword of the king of Babylon will come on you.
12 ἐν μαχαίραις γιγάντων καὶ καταβαλῶ τὴν ἰσχύν σου λοιμοὶ ἀπὸ ἐθνῶν πάντες καὶ ἀπολοῦσι τὴν ὕβριν Αἰγύπτου καὶ συντριβήσεται πᾶσα ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτῆς
I will cause your multitude to fall by the swords of the mighty. They are all the ruthless of the nations. They will bring the pride of Egypt to nothing, and all its multitude will be destroyed.
13 καὶ ἀπολῶ πάντα τὰ κτήνη αὐτῆς ἀφ’ ὕδατος πολλοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ ταράξῃ αὐτὸ ἔτι ποὺς ἀνθρώπου καὶ ἴχνος κτηνῶν οὐ μὴ καταπατήσῃ αὐτό
I will destroy also all its animals from beside many waters. The foot of man won’t trouble them any more, nor will the hoofs of animals trouble them.
14 οὕτως τότε ἡσυχάσει τὰ ὕδατα αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ποταμοὶ αὐτῶν ὡς ἔλαιον πορεύσονται λέγει κύριος
Then I will make their waters clear, and cause their rivers to run like oil,” says the Lord GOD.
15 ὅταν δῶ Αἴγυπτον εἰς ἀπώλειαν καὶ ἐρημωθῇ ἡ γῆ σὺν τῇ πληρώσει αὐτῆς ὅταν διασπείρω πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος
“When I make the land of Egypt desolate and waste, a land destitute of that of which it was full, when I strike all those who dwell therein, then they will know that I am the LORD.
16 θρῆνός ἐστιν καὶ θρηνήσεις αὐτόν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες τῶν ἐθνῶν θρηνήσουσιν αὐτόν ἐπ’ Αἴγυπτον καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῆς θρηνήσουσιν αὐτήν λέγει κύριος κύριος
“‘“This is the lamentation with which they will lament. The daughters of the nations will lament with this. They will lament with it over Egypt, and over all her multitude,” says the Lord GOD.’”
17 καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ ἔτει τοῦ πρώτου μηνὸς πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων
Also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
18 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου θρήνησον ἐπὶ τὴν ἰσχὺν Αἰγύπτου καὶ καταβιβάσουσιν αὐτῆς τὰς θυγατέρας τὰ ἔθνη νεκρὰς εἰς τὸ βάθος τῆς γῆς πρὸς τοὺς καταβαίνοντας εἰς βόθρον
“Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her and the daughters of the famous nations, to the lower parts of the earth, with those who go down into the pit.
Whom do you pass in beauty? Go down, and be laid with the uncircumcised.
20 ἐν μέσῳ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας πεσοῦνται μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ κοιμηθήσεται πᾶσα ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ
They will fall amongst those who are slain by the sword. She is delivered to the sword. Draw her away with all her multitudes.
21 καὶ ἐροῦσίν σοι οἱ γίγαντες ἐν βάθει βόθρου γίνου τίνος κρείττων εἶ κατάβηθι καὶ κοιμήθητι μετὰ ἀπεριτμήτων ἐν μέσῳ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας (Sheol )
The strong amongst the mighty will speak to him out of the middle of Sheol with those who help him. They have gone down. The uncircumcised lie still, slain by the sword. (Sheol )
22 ἐκεῖ Ασσουρ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ αὐτοῦ πάντες τραυματίαι ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν καὶ ἡ ταφὴ αὐτῶν ἐν βάθει βόθρου καὶ ἐγενήθη ἡ συναγωγὴ αὐτοῦ περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ τραυματίαι οἱ πεπτωκότες μαχαίρᾳ
“Asshur is there with all her company. Her graves are all around her. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword,
23 οἱ δόντες τὸν φόβον αὐτῶν ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς
whose graves are set in the uttermost parts of the pit, and her company is around her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who caused terror in the land of the living.
24 ἐκεῖ αιλαμ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δύναμις αὐτοῦ περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ τραυματίαι οἱ πεπτωκότες μαχαίρᾳ καὶ οἱ καταβαίνοντες ἀπερίτμητοι εἰς γῆς βάθος οἱ δεδωκότες αὐτῶν φόβον ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς καὶ ἐλάβοσαν τὴν βάσανον αὐτῶν μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον
“There is Elam and all her multitude around her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who have gone down uncircumcised into the lower parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living, and have borne their shame with those who go down to the pit.
They have made Elam a bed amongst the slain with all her multitude. Her graves are around her, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for their terror was caused in the land of the living, and they have borne their shame with those who go down to the pit. He is put amongst those who are slain.
26 ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν Μοσοχ καὶ Θοβελ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτῶν περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες τραυματίαι αὐτοῦ πάντες ἀπερίτμητοι τραυματίαι ἀπὸ μαχαίρας οἱ δεδωκότες τὸν φόβον αὐτῶν ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς
“There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude. Their graves are around them, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27 καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν μετὰ τῶν γιγάντων τῶν πεπτωκότων ἀπὸ αἰῶνος οἳ κατέβησαν εἰς ᾅδου ἐν ὅπλοις πολεμικοῖς καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰς μαχαίρας αὐτῶν ὑπὸ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐγενήθησαν αἱ ἀνομίαι αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῶν ὀστῶν αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐξεφόβησαν γίγαντας ἐν γῇ ζωῆς (Sheol )
They will not lie with the mighty who are fallen of the uncircumcised, who have gone down to Sheol with their weapons of war and have laid their swords under their heads. Their iniquities are on their bones; for they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. (Sheol )
28 καὶ σὺ ἐν μέσῳ ἀπεριτμήτων κοιμηθήσῃ μετὰ τετραυματισμένων μαχαίρᾳ
“But you will be broken amongst the uncircumcised, and will lie with those who are slain by the sword.
29 ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν οἱ ἄρχοντες Ασσουρ οἱ δόντες τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτοῦ εἰς τραῦμα μαχαίρας οὗτοι μετὰ τραυματιῶν ἐκοιμήθησαν μετὰ καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον
“There is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who in their might are laid with those who are slain by the sword. They will lie with the uncircumcised, and with those who go down to the pit.
30 ἐκεῖ οἱ ἄρχοντες τοῦ βορρᾶ πάντες στρατηγοὶ Ασσουρ οἱ καταβαίνοντες τραυματίαι σὺν τῷ φόβῳ αὐτῶν καὶ τῇ ἰσχύι αὐτῶν ἐκοιμήθησαν ἀπερίτμητοι μετὰ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας καὶ ἀπήνεγκαν τὴν βάσανον αὐτῶν μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον
“There are the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Sidonians, who have gone down with the slain. They are put to shame in the terror which they caused by their might. They lie uncircumcised with those who are slain by the sword, and bear their shame with those who go down to the pit.
31 ἐκείνους ὄψεται βασιλεὺς Φαραω καὶ παρακληθήσεται ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῶν λέγει κύριος κύριος
“Pharaoh will see them and will be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword,” says the Lord GOD.
32 ὅτι δέδωκα τὸν φόβον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς καὶ κοιμηθήσεται ἐν μέσῳ ἀπεριτμήτων μετὰ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας Φαραω καὶ πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος αὐτοῦ λέγει κύριος κύριος
“For I have put his terror in the land of the living. He will be laid amongst the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude,” says the Lord GOD.
