Notes on this text (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).
1 Ζητείτε παρά του Κυρίου υετόν εν τω καιρώ της οψίμου βροχής· και ο Κύριος θέλει κάμει αστραπάς και θέλει δώσει εις αυτούς βροχάς όμβρου, εις έκαστον βοτάνην εν τω αγρώ.
1 Ask of Yahweh rain in the spring time, Yahweh who makes storm clouds, and he gives rain showers to everyone for the plants in the field.
2 Διότι τα είδωλα ελάλησαν ματαιότητα και οι μάντεις είδον οράσεις ψευδείς και ελάλησαν ενύπνια μάταια· παρηγόρουν ματαίως· διά τούτο μετετοπίσθησαν ως ποίμνιον· εταράχθησαν, διότι δεν υπήρχε ποιμήν.
2 For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they go their way like sheep. They are oppressed, because there is no shepherd.
3 Ο θυμός μου εξήφθη κατά των ποιμένων και θέλω τιμωρήσει τους τράγους· διότι ο Κύριος των δυνάμεων επεσκέφθη το ποίμνιον αυτού, τον οίκον Ιούδα, και έκαμεν αυτούς ως ίππον αυτού ένδοξον εν μάχη.
3 My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the male goats, for Yahweh of Armies has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his majestic horse in the battle.
4 Απ' αυτού εξήλθεν η γωνία, απ' αυτού ο πάσσαλος, απ' αυτού το πολεμικόν τόξον, απ' αυτού πας ηγεμών ομού.
4 From him will come the cornerstone, from him the tent peg, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.
5 Και θέλουσιν είσθαι ως ισχυροί, καταπατούντες τους πολεμίους εν τω πηλώ των οδών, εν τη μάχη· και θέλουσι πολεμήσει, διότι ο Κύριος είναι μετ' αυτών, και οι αναβάται των ίππων θέλουσι καταισχυνθή.
5 They will be as mighty men, treading down muddy streets in the battle. They will fight, because Yahweh is with them. The riders on horses will be confounded.
6 Και θέλω ενισχύσει τον οίκον Ιούδα και τον οίκον Ιωσήφ θέλω σώσει, και θέλω επαναφέρει αυτούς, διότι ηλέησα αυτούς· και θέλουσιν είσθαι ως εάν δεν είχον αποβάλει αυτούς· διότι εγώ είμαι Κύριος ο Θεός αυτών και θέλω εισακούσει αυτών.
6 “I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back, for I have mercy on them. They will be as though I had not cast them off, for I am Yahweh their God, and I will hear them.
7 Και οι Εφραϊμίται θέλουσιν είσθαι ως ισχυρός και η καρδία αυτών θέλει χαρή ως από οίνου· και τα τέκνα αυτών θέλουσιν ιδεί και χαρή· η καρδία αυτών θέλει ευφρανθή εις τον Κύριον.
7 Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine. Yes, their children will see it and rejoice. Their heart will be glad in Yahweh.
8 Θέλω συρίξει εις αυτούς και θέλω συνάξει αυτούς· διότι εγώ ελύτρωσα αυτούς· και θέλουσι πληθυνθή καθώς ποτέ επληθύνθησαν.
8 I will signal for them and gather them, for I have redeemed them. They will increase as they were before.
9 Και θέλω σπείρει αυτούς μεταξύ των λαών· και θέλουσι με ενθυμηθή εν απομεμακρυσμένοις τόποις· και θέλουσι ζήσει μετά των τέκνων αυτών και θέλουσιν επιστρέψει.
9 I will sow them among the peoples. They will remember me in far countries. They will live with their children and will return.
10 Και θέλω επαναφέρει αυτούς εκ γης Αιγύπτου και συνάξει αυτούς εκ της Ασσυρίας· και θέλω φέρει αυτούς εις την γην Γαλαάδ και εις τον Λίβανον, και δεν θέλει εξαρκέσει εις αυτούς.
10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria. I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and there won’t be room enough for them.
11 Και θέλει περάσει διά της θαλάσσης εν θλίψει και θέλει πατάξει τα κύματα εν τη θαλάσση και πάντα τα βάθη του ποταμού θέλουσι ξηρανθή, και η υπερηφανία της Ασσυρίας θέλει καταβληθή και το σκήπτρον της Αιγύπτου θέλει αφαιρεθή.
11 He will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.
12 Και θέλω ενισχύσει αυτούς εις τον Κύριον, και θέλουσι περιπατεί εν τω ονόματι αυτού, λέγει Κύριος.
12 I will strengthen them in Yahweh. They will walk up and down in his name,” says Yahweh.
