Brenton Brenton's English Septuagint
PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 The Word of the Valley of Sion. What has happened to thee, that now ye are all gone up to the housetops which help you not?
·
2 The city is filled with shouting [men]: thy slain are not slain with swords, nor are thy dead those who have died in battle.
·
3 All thy princes have fled, and [thy] captives are tightly bound, and the mighty [men] in thee have fled far away.
·
4 Therefore I said, Let me alone, I will weep bitterly; labour not to comfort me for the breach of the daughter of my people.
·
5 For [it is] a day of trouble, and of destruction, and of treading down, and [there is] perplexity [sent] from the Lord of hosts: they wander in the valley of Sion; they wander from the least to the greatest on the mountains.
·
6 And the Elamites took [their] quivers, and [there were] men mounted on horses, and [there was] a gathering for battle.
·
7 And it shall be [that] thy choice valleys shall be filled with chariots, and horsemen shall block up thy gates.
·
8 And they shall uncover the gates of Juda, and they shall look in that day on the choice houses of the city.
·
9 And they shall uncover the secret places of the houses of the citadel of David: and they saw that they were many, and that one [had] turned the water of the old pool into the city;
·
10 and that they [had] pulled down the houses of Jerusalem, to fortify the wall of the city.
·
11 And ye procured to yourselves water between the two walls within the ancient pool: but ye looked not to him that made it from the beginning, and regarded not him that created it.
·
12 And the Lord, the Lord of hosts, called in that day for weeping, and lamentation, and baldness, and for girding with sackcloth:
·
13 but they engaged in joy and gladness, slaying calves, and killing sheep, so as to eat flesh, and drink wine; saying, Let us eat and drink; for to-morrow we die.
·
14 And these things are revealed in the ears of the Lord of hosts: for this sin shall not be forgiven you, until ye die.
·
15 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Go into the chamber, to Somnas the treasurer, and say to him, Why art thou here?
·
16 and what hast thou to do here, that thou hast here hewn thyself a sepulchre, and madest thyself a sepulchre on high, and hast graven for thyself a dwelling in the rock?
·
17 Behold now, the Lord of hosts casts forth and will utterly destroy [such] a man, and will take away thy robe and thy glorious crown,
·
18 and will cast thee into a great and unmeasured land, and there thou shalt die: and he will bring thy fair chariot to shame, and the house of thy prince to be trodden down.
·
19 And thou shalt be removed from thy stewardship, and from thy place.
·
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Chelcias:
·
21 and I will put on him thy robe, and I will grant him thy crown with power, and I will give thy stewardship into his hands: and he shall be as a father to them that dwell in Jerusalem, and to them that dwell in Juda.
·
22 And I will give him the glory of David; and he shall rule, and there shall be none to speak against him: and I will give him the key of the house of David [upon] his shoulder; and he shall open, and there shall be none to shut; and he shall shut, and there shall be none to open.
·
23 And I will make him a ruler in a sure place, and he shall be for a glorious throne of his father's house.
·
24 And every one that is glorious in the house of his father shall trust in him, from the least to the greatest; and they shall depend upon him in that day.
·
25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, The man that is fastened in the sure place shall be removed and be taken away, and shall fall; and the glory that is upon him shall be utterly destroyed: for the Lord has spoken it.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 22:13 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXIV)

    So with the Scribes; suppose them to speak out of their own heart; thou wilt hear, "Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we shall die." Suppose them to speak from Moses' seat; thou wilt hear, "Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shall not steal, Thou shall not bear false witness.
