Ἱερεμίας 30
1 τῇ Ιδουμαίᾳ τάδε λέγει κύριος οὐκ ἔστιν ἔτι σοφία ἐν Θαιμαν ἀπώλετο βουλὴ ἐκ συνετῶν ὤχετο σοφία αὐτῶν
The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
2 ἠπατήθη ὁ τόπος αὐτῶν βαθύνατε εἰς κάθισιν οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν Δαιδαν ὅτι δύσκολα ἐποίησεν ἤγαγον ἐπ’ αὐτὸν ἐν χρόνῳ ᾧ ἐπεσκεψάμην ἐπ’ αὐτόν
"Thus speaks YHWH, the God of Israel, saying, 'Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a scroll.
3 ὅτι τρυγηταὶ ἦλθόν σοι οὐ καταλείψουσίν σοι καταλείμματα ὡς κλέπται ἐν νυκτὶ ἐπιθήσουσιν χεῖρα αὐτῶν
For, look, the days come, says YHWH, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,' says YHWH; 'and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.'"
4 ὅτι ἐγὼ κατέσυρα τὸν Ησαυ ἀνεκάλυψα τὰ κρυπτὰ αὐτῶν κρυβῆναι οὐ μὴ δύνωνται ὤλοντο διὰ χεῖρα ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ γείτονος αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν
These are the words that YHWH spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 ὑπολείπεσθαι ὀρφανόν σου ἵνα ζήσηται καὶ ἐγὼ ζήσομαι καὶ χῆραι ἐπ’ ἐμὲ πεποίθασιν
For thus says YHWH: "We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
6 ὅτι τάδε εἶπεν κύριος οἷς οὐκ ἦν νόμος πιεῖν τὸ ποτήριον ἔπιον καὶ σὺ ἀθῳωμένη οὐ μὴ ἀθῳωθῇς ὅτι πίνων πίεσαι
Ask now, and see whether a man does travail with child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?
7 ὅτι κατ’ ἐμαυτοῦ ὤμοσα λέγει κύριος ὅτι εἰς ἄβατον καὶ εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν καὶ εἰς κατάρασιν ἔσῃ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ πόλεις αὐτῆς ἔσονται ἔρημοι εἰς αἰῶνα
Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it. It is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
8 ἀκοὴν ἤκουσα παρὰ κυρίου καὶ ἀγγέλους εἰς ἔθνη ἀπέστειλεν συνάχθητε καὶ παραγένεσθε εἰς αὐτήν ἀνάστητε εἰς πόλεμον
It shall come to pass in that day," says YHWH of hosts, "that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondservant;
9 μικρὸν ἔδωκά σε ἐν ἔθνεσιν εὐκαταφρόνητον ἐν ἀνθρώποις
but they shall serve YHWH their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
10 ἡ παιγνία σου ἐνεχείρησέν σοι ἰταμία καρδίας σου κατέλυσεν τρυμαλιὰς πετρῶν συνέλαβεν ἰσχὺν βουνοῦ ὑψηλοῦ ὅτι ὕψωσεν ὥσπερ ἀετὸς νοσσιὰν αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖθεν καθελῶ σε
Therefore do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says YHWH; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
11 καὶ ἔσται ἡ Ιδουμαία εἰς ἄβατον πᾶς ὁ παραπορευόμενος ἐπ’ αὐτὴν συριεῖ
For I am with you, says YHWH, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished."
12 ὥσπερ κατεστράφη Σοδομα καὶ Γομορρα καὶ αἱ πάροικοι αὐτῆς εἶπεν κύριος παντοκράτωρ οὐ μὴ καθίσῃ ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐνοικήσῃ ἐκεῖ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου
For thus says YHWH, "Your hurt is incurable, and your wound grievous.
13 ἰδοὺ ὥσπερ λέων ἀναβήσεται ἐκ μέσου τοῦ Ιορδάνου εἰς τόπον Αιθαμ ὅτι ταχὺ ἐκδιώξω αὐτοὺς ἀπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ τοὺς νεανίσκους ἐπ’ αὐτὴν ἐπιστήσατε ὅτι τίς ὥσπερ ἐγώ καὶ τίς ἀντιστήσεταί μοι καὶ τίς οὗτος ποιμήν ὃς στήσεται κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου
There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.
14 διὰ τοῦτο ἀκούσατε βουλὴν κυρίου ἣν ἐβουλεύσατο ἐπὶ τὴν Ιδουμαίαν καὶ λογισμὸν αὐτοῦ ὃν ἐλογίσατο ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Θαιμαν ἐὰν μὴ συμψησθῶσιν τὰ ἐλάχιστα τῶν προβάτων ἐὰν μὴ ἀβατωθῇ ἐπ’ αὐτὴν κατάλυσις αὐτῶν
All your lovers have forgotten you; they do not seek you: for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.
15 ὅτι ἀπὸ φωνῆς πτώσεως αὐτῶν ἐσείσθη ἡ γῆ καὶ κραυγή σου ἐν θαλάσσῃ ἠκούσθη
Why do you cry for your hurt? Your pain is incurable: for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.
16 ἰδοὺ ὥσπερ ἀετὸς ὄψεται καὶ ἐκτενεῖ τὰς πτέρυγας ἐπ’ ὀχυρώματα αὐτῆς καὶ ἔσται ἡ καρδία τῶν ἰσχυρῶν τῆς Ιδουμαίας ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ὡς καρδία γυναικὸς ὠδινούσης
Therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, everyone of them, shall go into captivity; and those who plunder you shall be plundered, and all who prey on you I will make a prey.
17 τοῖς υἱοῖς Αμμων οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος μὴ υἱοὶ οὔκ εἰσιν ἐν Ισραηλ ἢ παραλημψόμενος οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῖς διὰ τί παρέλαβεν Μελχομ τὸν Γαδ καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτῶν ἐν πόλεσιν αὐτῶν ἐνοικήσει
For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds," says YHWH; "because they have called you an outcast, saying, 'It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.'"
18 διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται φησὶν κύριος καὶ ἀκουτιῶ ἐπὶ Ραββαθ θόρυβον πολέμων καὶ ἔσονται εἰς ἄβατον καὶ εἰς ἀπώλειαν καὶ βωμοὶ αὐτῆς ἐν πυρὶ κατακαυθήσονται καὶ παραλήμψεται Ισραηλ τὴν ἀρχὴν αὐτοῦ
Thus says YHWH: "Look, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built on its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited in its own way.
19 ἀλάλαξον Εσεβων ὅτι ὤλετο Γαι κεκράξατε θυγατέρες Ραββαθ περιζώσασθε σάκκους καὶ ἐπιλημπτεύσασθε καὶ κόψασθε ἐπὶ Μελχομ ὅτι ἐν ἀποικίᾳ βαδιεῖται οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτοῦ ἅμα
Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
20 τί ἀγαλλιάσῃ ἐν τοῖς πεδίοις Ενακιμ θύγατερ ἰταμίας ἡ πεποιθυῖα ἐπὶ θησαυροῖς αὐτῆς ἡ λέγουσα τίς εἰσελεύσεται ἐπ’ ἐμέ
Their children also shall be as before, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all who oppress them.
21 ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ φέρω φόβον ἐπὶ σέ εἶπεν κύριος ἀπὸ πάσης τῆς περιοίκου σου καὶ διασπαρήσεσθε ἕκαστος εἰς πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ συνάγων
Their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from their midst; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach to me: for who is he who has had boldness to approach to me? says YHWH.
You shall be my people, and I will be your God.
23 τῇ Κηδαρ βασιλίσσῃ τῆς αὐλῆς ἣν ἐπάταξεν Ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἀνάστητε καὶ ἀνάβητε ἐπὶ Κηδαρ καὶ πλήσατε τοὺς υἱοὺς Κεδεμ
Look, the storm of YHWH, his wrath, has gone forth, a sweeping storm: it shall burst on the head of the wicked.
24 σκηνὰς αὐτῶν καὶ πρόβατα αὐτῶν λήμψονται ἱμάτια αὐτῶν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν καὶ καμήλους αὐτῶν λήμψονται ἑαυτοῖς καὶ καλέσατε ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς ἀπώλειαν κυκλόθεν
The fierce anger of YHWH will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.
25 φεύγετε λίαν βαθύνατε εἰς κάθισιν καθήμενοι ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ ὅτι ἐβουλεύσατο ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος βουλὴν καὶ ἐλογίσατο ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς λογισμόν
26 ἀνάστηθι καὶ ἀνάβηθι ἐπ’ ἔθνος εὐσταθοῦν καθήμενον εἰς ἀναψυχήν οἷς οὔκ εἰσιν θύραι οὐ βάλανοι οὐ μοχλοί μόνοι καταλύουσιν
27 καὶ ἔσονται κάμηλοι αὐτῶν εἰς προνομὴν καὶ πλῆθος κτηνῶν αὐτῶν εἰς ἀπώλειαν καὶ λικμήσω αὐτοὺς παντὶ πνεύματι κεκαρμένους πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν ἐκ παντὸς πέραν αὐτῶν οἴσω τὴν τροπὴν αὐτῶν εἶπεν κύριος
28 καὶ ἔσται ἡ αὐλὴ διατριβὴ στρουθῶν καὶ ἄβατος ἕως αἰῶνος οὐ μὴ καθίσῃ ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος καὶ οὐ μὴ κατοικήσῃ ἐκεῖ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου
29 τῇ Δαμασκῷ κατῃσχύνθη Ημαθ καὶ Αρφαδ ὅτι ἤκουσαν ἀκοὴν πονηράν ἐξέστησαν ἐθυμώθησαν ἀναπαύσασθαι οὐ μὴ δύνωνται
30 ἐξελύθη Δαμασκός ἀπεστράφη εἰς φυγήν τρόμος ἐπελάβετο αὐτῆς
31 πῶς οὐχὶ ἐγκατέλιπεν πόλιν ἐμήν κώμην ἠγάπησαν
32 διὰ τοῦτο πεσοῦνται νεανίσκοι ἐν πλατείαις σου καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ πολεμισταί σου πεσοῦνται φησὶν κύριος
33 καὶ καύσω πῦρ ἐν τείχει Δαμασκοῦ καὶ καταφάγεται ἄμφοδα υἱοῦ Αδερ
