- Ezra and Nehemiah form one book (2 Esdras) in this edition; the reader shows them as Ezra 1–10 and Nehemiah 1–13.
1 Καὶ παρέλαβε Γοργίας πεντακισχιλίους ἄνδρας καὶ χιλίαν ἵππον ἐκλεκτὴν, καὶ ἀπῇρεν ἡ παρεμβολὴ νυκτὸς,
1 Gorgias took five thousand infantry, a thousand chosen cavalry, and the army moved out at night,
2 ὥστε ἐπιβαλεῖν ἐπὶ τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Ἰουδαίων, καὶ πατάξαι αὐτοὺς ἄφνω· καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῆς ἄκρας ἦσαν αὐτῷ ὁδηγοί.
2 that it might fall upon the army of the Jews and strike them suddenly. The men of the citadel were his guides.
3 Καὶ ἤκουσεν Ἰούδας, καὶ ἀπῇρεν αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ δυνατοὶ πατάξαι τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ἐν Ἐμμαοὺμ,
3 Judas heard of this, and he and the valiant men moved, that he might strike the king’s army which was at Emmaus
4 ἕως ἔτι αἱ δυνάμεις ἐσκορπισμέναι ἦσαν ἀπὸ τῆς παρεμβολῆς.
4 while the forces were still dispersed from the camp.
5 Καὶ ἦλθε Γοργίας εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ἰούδα νυκτὸς, καὶ οὐδένα εὗρε· καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτοὺς ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν, ὅτι εἶπε, φεύγουσιν οὗτοι ἀφʼ ἡμῶν.
5 Gorgias came into the camp of Judas at night and found no man. He sought them in the mountains; for he said, “These men are running away from us.”
6 Καὶ ἅμα τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, ὤφθη Ἰούδας ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ ἐν τρισχιλίοις ἀνδράσι· πλὴν καλύμματα καὶ μαχαίρας οὐκ εἶχον καθὼς ἠβούλοντο.
6 As soon as it was day, Judas appeared in the plain with three thousand men. However they didn’t have the armor and swords they desired.
7 Καὶ εἶδον παρεμβολὴν ἐθνῶν ἰσχυρὰν, τεθωρακισμένην, καὶ ἵππον κυκλοῦσαν αὐτὴν, καὶ οὗτοι διδακτοὶ πολέμου.
7 They saw the camp of the Gentiles strong and fortified, with cavalry all around it; and these were expert in war.
8 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰούδας τοῖς ἀνδράσι τοῖς μετʼ αὐτοῦ, μὴ φοβεῖσθε τὸ πλῆθος αὐτῶν, καὶ τὸ ὅρμημα αὐτῶν μὴ δειλωθῆτε.
8 Judas said to the men who were with him, “Don’t be afraid of their numbers, or when they charge.
9 Μνήσθητε πῶς ἐσώθησαν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ἐν θαλάσσῃ ἐρυθρᾷ, ὅτε ἐδίωξεν αὐτοὺς Φαραὼ ἐν δυνάμει.
9 Remember how our fathers were saved in the Red sea, when Pharaoh pursued them with an army.
10 Καὶ νῦν βοήσωμεν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, εἴπως ἐλεήσει ἡμᾶς, καὶ μνησθήσεται διαθήκης πατέρων ἡμῶν, καὶ συντρίψει τὴν παρεμβολὴν ταύτην κατὰ πρόσωπον ἡμῶν σήμερον.
10 Now let’s cry to heaven, if he will have us, and will remember the covenant of our fathers, and destroy this army before our face today.
11 Καὶ γνώσεται πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ὅτι ἐστὶν ὁ λυτρούμενος καὶ σώζων τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
11 Then all the Gentiles will know that there is one who redeems and saves Israel.
12 Καὶ ᾖραν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν. καὶ ἴδον αὐτοὺς ἐρχομένους ἐξεναντίας,
12 The foreigners lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming near them.
13 καὶ ἐξῆλθον ἐκ τῆς παρεμβολῆς εἰς πόλεμον· καὶ ἐσάλπισαν οἱ μετὰ Ἰούδα.
13 They went out of the camp to battle. Those who were with Judas sounded their trumpets
14 Καὶ συνῆψαν, καὶ συνετρίβησαν τὰ ἔθνη, καὶ ἔφυγον εἰς τὸ πεδίον.
14 and joined battle. The Gentiles were defeated, and fled into the plain.
15 Οἱ δὲ ἔσχατοι πάντες ἔπεσον ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ· καὶ ἐδίωξαν αὐτοὺς ἕως Γαζηρὼν καὶ ἕως τῶν πεδίων τῆς Ἰδουμαίας καὶ Ἀζώτου καὶ Ἰαμνίας, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐξ αὐτῶν εἰς ἄνδρας τρισχιλίους.
15 But all those in the rear fell by the sword. They pursued them to Gazara, and to the plains of Idumaea, Azotus, and Jamnia. About three thousand of those men fell.
16 Καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰούδας καὶ ἡ δύναμις ἀπὸ τοῦ διώκειν ὄπισθεν αὐτῶν,
16 Then Judas and his army returned from pursuing them;
17 καὶ εἶπε πρὸς τὸν λαὸν, μὴ ἐπιθυμήσητε τῶν σκύλων, ὅτι πόλεμος ἐξεναντίας ἡμῶν,
17 and he said to the people, “Don’t be greedy for the spoils, because there is a battle before us.
18 καὶ Γοργίας καὶ ἡ δύναμις ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐγγὺς ἡμῶν· ἀλλὰ στῆτε νῦν ἐναντίον τῶν ἐχθρῶν ἡμῶν, καὶ πολεμήσατε αὐτοὺς, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα λήψετε τὰ σκύλα μετὰ παῤῥησίας.
18 Gorgias and his army are near us on the mountain. But stand now against our enemies and fight against them, and afterwards take the spoils with boldness.”
19 Ἔτι λαλοῦντος Ἰούδα ταῦτα, ὤφθη μέρος τι ἐκκύπτον ἐκ τοῦ ὄρους.
19 While Judas was finishing this speech, a part of them appeared looking out from the mountain.
20 Καὶ εἶδεν ὅτι τετρόπωνται, καὶ ἐμπυρίζουσι τὴν παρεμβολὴν, ὁ γὰρ καπνὸς θεωρούμενος ἐνεφάνιζε τὸ γεγονός.
20 They saw that their army had been put to flight, and that the Jews were burning the camp; for the smoke that was seen declared what was done.
21 Οἱ δὲ ταῦτα συνιδόντες ἐδειλώθησαν σφόδρα· συνιδόντες δὲ καὶ τὴν Ἰούδα παρεμβολὴν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ ἑτοίμην εἰς παράταξιν,
21 But when they perceived these things, they were very afraid. Perceiving also the army of Judas in the plain ready for battle,
22 ἔφυγον πάντες εἰς γῆν ἀλλοφύλων.
22 they all fled into the land of the Philistines.
23 Καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν Ἰούδας ἐπὶ τὴν σκυλείαν τῆς παρεμβολῆς· καὶ ἔλαβον χρυσίον πολὺ καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ ὑάκινθον καὶ πορφύραν θαλασσίαν καὶ πλοῦτον μέγαν.
23 Judas returned to plunder the camp, and they took much gold, silver, blue, sea purple, and great riches.
24 Καὶ ἐπιστραφέντες ὕμνουν καὶ εὐλόγουν εἰς οὐρανὸν τὸν Κύριον, ὅτι καλὸν, ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ.
24 Then they returned home, and sang a song of thanksgiving, and gave praise to heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endures forever.
25 Καὶ ἐγένετο σωτηρία μεγάλη τῷ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ.
25 Israel had a great deliverance that day.
26 Ὅσοι δὲ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων διεσώθησαν, παραγενηθέντες ἀπήγγειλαν τῷ Λυσίᾳ πάντα τὰ συμβεβηκότα.
26 The foreigners who had escaped came and told Lysias all the things that had happened.
27 Ὁ δὲ ἀκούσας συνεχύθη καὶ ἠθύμει, ὅτι οὐχ οἷα ἤθελε, τοιαῦτα γεγόνει τῷ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οὐχ οἷα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς, τοιαῦτα ἐξέβη.
27 When he heard of it, he was confounded and discouraged, because the things he desired had not been done to Israel, nor had such things happened as the king commanded him.
28 Καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐχομένῳ ἐνιαυτῷ συνελόχησεν ὁ Λυσίας ἀνδρῶν ἐπιλέκτων ἑξήκοντα χιλιάδας καὶ πεντακισχιλίαν ἵππον, ὥστε ἐκπολεμῆσαι αὐτούς.
28 In the next year, he gathered together sixty thousand chosen infantry and five thousand cavalry, that he might subdue them.
29 Καὶ ἦλθον εἰς τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Βαιθσούροις, καὶ συνήντησεν αὐτοῖς Ἰούδας ἐν δέκα χιλιάσιν ἀνδρῶν.
29 They came into Idumaea and encamped at Bethsura. Judas met them with ten thousand men.
30 Καὶ εἶδε τὴν παρεμβολὴν ἰσχυρὰν, καὶ προσηύξατο, καὶ εἶπεν, εὐλογητὸς εἶ, ὁ σωτὴρ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, ὁ συντρίψας τὸ ὅρμημα τοῦ δυνατοῦ ἐν χειρὶ τοῦ δούλου σου Δαυὶδ, καὶ παρέδωκας τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων εἰς χεῖρας Ἰωνάθαν υἱοῦ Σαοὺλ, καὶ τοῦ αἴροντος τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ.
30 He saw that the army was strong, and he prayed and said, “Blessed are you, O Savior of Israel, who defeated the attack of the mighty warrior by the hand of your servant David, and delivered the army of the Philistines into the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul, and of his armor bearer.
31 Σύγκλεισον τὴν παρεμβολὴν ταύτην ἐν χειρὶ λαοῦ σου Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ αἰσχυνθήτωσαν ἐπὶ τῇ δυνάμει καὶ τῇ ἵππῳ αὐτῶν.
31 Hem in this army in the hand of your people Israel, and let them be ashamed for their army and their cavalry.
32 Δὸς αὐτοῖς δειλίαν, καὶ τῆξον θράσος ἰσχύος αὐτῶν, καὶ σαλευθήτωσαν τῇ συντριβῇ αὐτῶν.
32 Give them faintness of heart. Cause the boldness of their strength to melt away, and let them quake at their destruction.
33 Κατάβαλε αὐτοὺς ῥομφαίᾳ ἀγαπώντων σε, καὶ αἰνεσάτωσάν σε πάντες οἱ εἰδότες τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐν ὕμνοις.
33 Strike them down with the sword of those who love you, and let all who know your name praise you with thanksgiving.”
34 Καὶ συνέβαλον ἀλλήλοις, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐκ τῆς παρεμβολῆς Λυσίου εἰς πεντακισχιλίους ἄνδρας, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐξ ἐναντίας αὐτῶν.
34 They joined in battle; and about five thousand men of Lysias’ army fell. They fell down near them.
35 Ἰδὼν δὲ Λυσίας τὴν γενομένην τροπὴν, τῆς αὐτοῦ συντάξεως, τῆς δὲ Ἰούδα τὸ γεγενημένον θάρσος, καὶ ὡς ἕτοιμοί εἰσιν ἢ ζῇν ἢ τεθνάναι γενναίως, ἀπῇρεν εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν, καὶ ἐξενολόγει· καὶ πλεονάσας τὸν γενηθέντα στρατὸν, ἐλογίζετο πάλιν παραγενέσθαι εἰς τὴν Ἰουδαίαν.
35 But when Lysias saw that his troops were put to flight, and the boldness that had come upon those who were with Judas, and how they were ready either to live or to die nobly, he withdrew to Antioch, and gathered together hired soldiers, that he might come again into Judea with an even greater army.
36 Εἶπε δὲ Ἰούδας καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ, Ἰδοὺ συνετρίβησαν οἱ ἐχθροὶ ἡμῶν, ἀναβῶμεν καθαρίσαι τὰ ἅγια καὶ ἐγκαινίσαι.
36 But Judas and his kindred said, “Behold, our enemies are defeated. Let’s go up to cleanse the holy place and to rededicate it.”
37 Καὶ συνήχθη ἡ παρεμβολὴ πᾶσα, καὶ ἀνέβησαν εἰς ὄρος Σιών.
37 All the army was gathered together, and they went up to mount Zion.
38 Καὶ ἴδον τὸ ἁγίασμα ἠρημωμένον, καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον βεβηλωμένον, καὶ τὰς πύλας κατακεκαυμένας, καὶ ἐν ταῖς αὐλαῖς φυτὰ πεφυκότα ὡς ἐν δρυμῷ ἢ ὡς ἐν ἑνὶ τῶν ὀρέων, καὶ τὰ παστοφόρια καθῃρημένα.
38 They saw the sanctuary laid desolate, the altar profaned, the gates burned up, shrubs growing in the courts as in a forest or as on one of the mountains, and the priests’ chambers pulled down;
39 Καὶ διέῤῥηξαν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐκόψαντο κοπετὸν μέγαν, καὶ ἐπέθεντο σποδὸν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν.
39 and they tore their clothes, made great lamentation, put ashes upon their heads,
40 Καὶ ἔπεσον ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ταῖς σάλπιγξι τῶν σημασιῶν, καὶ ἐβόησαν εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
40 fell on their faces to the ground, blew with the solemn trumpets, and cried toward heaven.
41 Τότε ἐπέταξεν Ἰούδας ἄνδρας πολεμεῖν τοὺς ἐν τῇ ἄκρᾳ, ἕως ἂν καθαρίσῃ τὰ ἅγια.
41 Then Judas appointed certain men to fight against those who were in the citadel until he had cleansed the holy place.
42 Καὶ ἐπέλεξεν ἱερεῖς ἀμώμους, θελητὰς νόμου.
42 He chose blameless priests who were devoted to the law;
43 Καὶ ἐκαθάρισαν τὰ ἅγια, καὶ ᾖραν τοὺς λίθους τοῦ μιασμοῦ εἰς τόπον ἀκάθαρτον.
43 and they cleansed the holy place and carried the defiled stones out to an unclean place.
44 Καὶ ἐβουλεύσαντο περὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τῆς ὁλοκαυτώσεως τοῦ βεβηλωμένου, τί αὐτῷ ποιήσωσι.
44 They deliberated what to do with the altar of burnt offerings, which had been profaned.
45 Καὶ ἐπέπεσεν αὐτοῖς βουλὴ ἀγαθὴ, καθελεῖν αὐτὸ, μήποτε γένηται αὐτοῖς εἰς ὄνειδος, ὅτι ἐμίαναν τὰ ἔθνη αὐτό· καὶ καθεῖλον τὸ θυσιαστήριον,
45 A good plan came into their mind, that they should pull it down, lest it would be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it. So they pulled down the altar
46 καὶ ἀπέθεντο τοὺς λίθους ἐν τῷ ὄρει τοῦ οἴκου, ἐν τόπῳ ἐπιτηδείῳ, μέχρι τοῦ παραγενηθῆναι προφήτην τοῦ ἀποκριθῆναι περὶ αὐτῶν.
46 and laid up the stones on the temple hill in a convenient place, until a prophet would come to give an answer concerning them.
47 Καὶ ἔλαβον λίθους ὁλοκλήρους κατὰ τὸν νόμον, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν τὸ θυσιαστήριον καινὸν κατὰ τὸ πρότερον.
47 They took whole stones according to the law, and built a new altar like the former.
48 Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν τὰ ἅγια καὶ τὰ ἐντὸς τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ τὰς αὐλὰς ἡγίασαν.
48 They built the holy place and the inner parts of the house; and they consecrated the courts.
49 Καὶ ἐποίησαν σκεύη ἅγια καινὰ, καὶ εἰσήνεγκαν τὴν λυχνίαν καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τῶν θυμιαμάτων καὶ τὴν τράπεζαν εἰς τὸν ναόν.
49 They made new holy vessels, and they brought the lampstand, the altar of incense, and the table into the temple.
50 Καὶ ἐθυμίασαν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον, καὶ ἐξῆψαν τοὺς λύχνους τοὺς ἐπὶ τῆς λυχνίας, καὶ ἐφαίνοσαν ἐν τῷ ναῷ.
50 They burned incense on the altar, and they lit the lamps that were upon the lampstand, and they gave light in the temple.
51 Καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ τὴν τράπεζαν ἄρτους, καὶ ἐξεπέτασαν τὰ καταπετάσματα· καὶ ἐτέλεσαν πάντα τὰ ἔργα ἃ ἐποίησαν.
51 They set loaves upon the table, hung up the curtains, and finished all the work which they had done.
52 Καὶ ὤρθρισαν τοπρωῒ τῇ πέμπτῃ καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ ἐννάτου· οὗτος ὁ μὴν Χασελεῦ τοῦ ὀγδόου καὶ τεσσαρακοστοῦ καὶ ἑκατοστοῦ ἔτους.
52 They rose up early in the morning, on the twenty-fifth day of the ninth month, which is the month Chislev, in the one hundred forty eighth year,
53 Καὶ ἀνήνεγκαν θυσίαν κατὰ τὸν νόμον ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων τὸ καινὸν ὃ ἐποίησαν.
53 and offered sacrifice according to the law on the new altar of burnt offerings which they had made.
54 Κατὰ τὸν καιρὸν καὶ κατὰ τὴν ἡμέραν ἐν ᾗ ἐβεβήλωσαν αὐτὸ τὰ ἔθνη, ἐν ἐκείνῃ ἐνεκαινίσθη ἐν ᾠδαῖς καὶ κιθάραις καὶ κινύραις, καὶ ἐν κυμβάλοις.
54 At the time and day the Gentiles had profaned it, even then it was dedicated with songs, harps, lutes, and with cymbals.
55 Καὶ ἔπεσον πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐπὶ πρόσωπον, καὶ προσεκύνησαν, καὶ εὐλόγησαν εἰς οὐρανὸν τὸν εὐοδώσαντα αὐτοῖς.
55 All the people fell on their faces, worshiped, and gave praise toward heaven, which had given them good success.
56 Καὶ ἐποίησαν τὸν ἐγκαινισμὸν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἡμέρας ὀκτὼ, καὶ προσήνεγκαν ὁλοκαυτώματα μετʼ εὐφροσύνης, καὶ ἔθυσαν θυσίαν σωτηρίου καὶ αἰνέσεως.
56 They celebrated the dedication of the altar eight days, and offered burnt offerings with gladness, and sacrificed a sacrifice of deliverance and praise.
57 Καὶ κατεκόσμησαν τὸ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ στεφάνοις χρυσοῖς καὶ ἀσπιδίσκαις, καὶ ἐνεκαίνισν τὰς πύλας καὶ τὰ παστοφόρια, καὶ ἐθύρωσαν αὐτά.
57 They decorated the front of the temple with crowns of gold and small shields. They dedicated the gates and the priests’ chambers, and made doors for them.
58 Καὶ ἐγενήθη εὐφροσύνη μεγάλη ἐν τῷ λαῷ σφόδρα, καὶ ἀπεστράφη ὄνειδος ἐθνῶν.
58 There was exceedingly great gladness among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.
59 Καὶ ἔστησεν Ἰούδας καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία Ἰσραὴλ, ἵνα ἄγωνται αἱ ἡμέραι ἐγκαινισμοῦ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἐν τοῖς καιροῖς αὐτῶν ἐνιαυτὸν κατʼ ἐνιαυτὸν ἡμέρας ὀκτὼ, ἀπὸ τῆς πέμπτης καὶ εἰκάδος τοῦ μηνὸς Χασελεῦ, μετʼ εὐφροσύνης καὶ χαρᾶς.
59 Judas and his kindred and the whole congregation of Israel ordained that the days of the dedication of the altar should be kept in their seasons from year to year for eight days, from the twenty-fifth day of the month Chislev, with gladness and joy.
60 Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ τὸ ὄρος Σιὼν, κυκλόθεν τείχη ὑψηλὰ καὶ πύργους ὀχυροὺς, μήποτε παραγενηθέντα τὰ ἔθνη καταπατήσωσιν αὐτὰ, ὡς ἐποίησαν τοπρότερον.
60 At that time, they fortified mount Zion with high walls and strong towers around it, lest perhaps the Gentiles might come and trample them down, as they had done before.
61 Καὶ ἐπέταξεν ἐκεῖ δύναμιν τηρεῖν αὐτὸ, καὶ ὠχύρωσαν αὐτὸ τηρεῖν τὴν Βαιθσούραν, τοῦ ἔχειν τὸν λαὸν ὀχύρωμα κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς Ἰδουμαίας.
61 Judas stationed a garrison to guard it. They fortified Bethsura to keep it, that the people might have a stronghold near Idumaea.
