| Strengthen yourselves, ye children of Benjamin, to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and sound an alarm with the trumpet in Thecue, and set up a signal over Bæthacharma: for evil threatens from the north, and a great destruction is coming. | ΕΝΙΣΧΥΣΑΤΕ, υἱοὶ Βενιαμίν, ἐκ μέσου τῆς ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἐν Θεκουὲ σημάνατε σάλπιγγι καὶ ὑπὲρ Βαιθαχαρμὰ ἄρατε σημεῖον, ὅτι κακὰ ἐκκέκυφεν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ συντριβὴ μεγάλη γίνεται, |

|
| And thy pride, O daughter of Sion, shall be taken away. | καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσεται τὸ ὕψος σου, θύγατερ Σιών. |

|
| The shepherds and their flocks shall come to her; and they shall pitch their tents against her round about, and shall feed their flocks each with his hand. | εἰς αὐτὴν ἥξουσι ποιμένες καὶ τὰ ποίμνια αὐτῶν καὶ πήξουσιν ἐπ’ αὐτὴν σκηνὰς κύκλῳ καὶ ποιμανοῦσιν ἕκαστος τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ. |

| Prepare yourselves for war against her; rise up, and let us go up against her at noon. Woe to us! for the day has gone down, for the shadows of the day fail. | παρασκευάσασθε ἐπ’ αὐτὴν εἰς πόλεμον, ἀνάστητε καὶ ἀναβῶμεν ἐπ’ αὐτὴν μεσημβρίας· οὐαὶ ἡμῖν, ὅτι κέκλικεν ἡ ἡμέρα, ὅτι ἐκλείπουσιν αἱ σκιαὶ τῆς ἑσπέρας. |
|

|
| Rise, and let us go up against her by night, and destroy her foundations. | ἀνάστητε καὶ ἀναβῶμεν ἐπ’ αὐτὴν νυκτὶ καὶ διαφθείρωμεν τὰ θεμέλια αὐτῆς. |

|
| For thus saith the Lord, Hew down her trees, array a numerous force against Jerusalem. O false city; there is all oppression in her. | ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἔκκοψον τὰ ξύλα αὐτῆς, ἔκχεον ἐπὶ ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ δύναμιν· ὦ πόλις ψευδής, ὅλη καταδυναστεία ἐν αὐτῇ. |

|
| As a cistern cools water, so her wickedness cools her, ungodliness and misery shall be heard in her, as continually before her. | ὡς ψύχει λάκκος ὕδωρ, οὕτω ψύχει κακία αὐτῆς· ἀσέβεια καὶ ταλαιπωρία ἀκουσθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς διαπαντός. πόνῳ καὶ μάστιγι |

|
| Thou shalt be chastened, O Jerusalem, with pain and the scourge, lest my soul depart from thee; lest I make thee a desert land, which shall not be inhabited. | παιδευθήσῃ ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, μὴ ἀποστῇ ἡ ψυχή μου ἀπὸ σοῦ, μὴ ποιήσω σε ἄβατον γῆν, ἥτις οὐ κατοικηθήσεται. |

|
| For thus saith the Lord, Glean, glean thoroughly as a vine the remnant of Israel: turn back your hands as a grape-gatherer to his basket. | ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος· καλαμᾶσθε, καλαμᾶσθε ὡς ἄμπελον τὰ κατάλοιπα τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ, ἐπιστρέψατε ὡς ὁ τρυγῶν ἐπὶ τὸν κάρταλλον αὐτοῦ. |
|

|
| To whom shall I speak, and testify, that he may hearken? behold, thine ears are uncircumcised, and they shall not be able to hear: behold, the word of the Lord is become to them a reproach, they will not at all desire it. | πρὸς τίνα λαλήσω καὶ διαμαρτύρωμαι, καὶ εἰσακούσεται; ἰδοὺ ἀπερίτμητα τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐ δυνήσονται ἀκούειν· ἰδοὺ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς ὀνειδισμόν, οὐ μὴ βουληθῶσιν αὐτὸ ἀκοῦσαι. |
|

|
| And I allowed my wrath to come to the full, yet I kept it in, and did not utterly destroy them: I will pour it out on the children without, and on the assembly of young men together: for man and woman shall be taken together, the old man with him that is full of days. | καὶ τὸν θυμόν μου ἔπλησα καὶ ἐπέσχον καὶ οὐ συνετέλεσα αὐτούς. ἐκχεῶ ἐπὶ νήπια ἔξωθεν καὶ ἐπὶ συναγωγὴν νεανίσκων ἅμα, ὅτι ἀνὴρ καὶ γυνὴ συλληφθήσονται, πρεσβύτερος μετὰ πλήρους ἡμερῶν. |
|

|
| And their houses shall be turned to others, with their fields and their wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of this land, saith the Lord. | καὶ μεταστραφήσονται αἱ οἰκίαι αὐτῶν εἰς ἑτέρους, ἀγροὶ καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό, ὅτι ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν ταύτην, λέγει Κύριος. |
|

|
13
|
| For from the least of them even to the greatest they have all committed iniquity; from the priest even to the false prophet they have all wrought falsely. | ὅτι ἀπὸ μικροῦ αὐτῶν καὶ ἕως μεγάλου πάντες συνετελέσαντο ἄνομα, ἀπὸ ἱερέως καὶ ἕως ψευδοπροφήτου πάντες ἐποίησαν ψευδῆ. |
|
14
|

|
| And they healed the breach of my people imperfectly, making light of it, and saying, Peace, peace: and where is peace? | καὶ ἰῶντο σύντριμμα τοῦ λαοῦ μου ἐξουθενοῦντες καὶ λέγοντες· εἰρήνη — εἰρήνη. καὶ ποῦ ἐστιν εἰρήνη; |
|
15
|

|
| They were ashamed because they failed; yet they were not ashamed as those who are truly ashamed, and they knew not their own disgrace: therefore shall they utterly fall when they do fall, and in the time of visitation shall they perish, said the Lord. | κατῃσχύνθησαν, ὅτι ἐξελίποσαν· καὶ οὐδ’ ὡς καταισχυνόμενοι κατῃσχύνθησαν καὶ τὴν ἀτιμίαν αὐτῶν οὐκ ἔγνωσαν. διὰ τοῦτο πεσοῦνται ἐν τῇ πτώσει αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν καιρῷ ἐπισκοπῆς ἀπολοῦνται, εἶπε Κύριος. |
|

|

|
| Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths of the Lord; and see what is the good way, and walk in it, and ye shall find purification for your souls. But they said, We will not walk in them. | τάδε λέγει Κύριος· στῆτε ἐπὶ ταῖς ὁδοῖς καὶ ἴδετε, καὶ ἐρωτήσατε τρίβους Κυρίου αἰωνίους καὶ ἴδετε ποία ἐστὶν ἡ ὁδὸς ἡ ἀγαθή, καὶ βαδίζετε ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ εὑρήσετε ἁγνισμὸν ταῖς ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν. καὶ εἶπαν· οὐ πορευσόμεθα. |
|
17
|
17
|
| I have set watchmen over you, saying, Hear ye the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hear it. | καθέστακα ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς σκοπούς, ἀκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς τῆς σάλπιγγος· καὶ εἶπαν· οὐκ ἀκουσόμεθα. |
|
18
|
18
|
| Therefore have the nations heard, and they that feed their flocks. | διὰ τοῦτο ἤκουσαν τὰ ἔθνη καὶ οἱ ποιμαίνοντες τὰ ποίμνια αὐτῶν. |
|
19
|
19
|
| Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evils upon this people, even the fruit of their rebellions; for they have not heeded my words, and they have rejected my law. | ἄκουε, γῆ· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον κακά, τὸν καρπὸν ἀποστροφῆς αὐτῶν, ὅτι τῶν λόγων μου οὐ προσέσχον καὶ τὸν νόμον μου ἀπώσαντο. |
|

|
| Wherefore do ye bring me frankincense from Saba, and cinnamon from a land afar off? your whole-burnt-offerings are not acceptable, and your sacrifices have not been pleasant to me. | ἱνατί μοι λίβανον ἐκ Σαβὰ φέρετε καὶ κινάμωμον ἐκ γῆς μακρόθεν; τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν οὐκ εἰσὶ δεκτά, καὶ αἱ θυσίαι ὑμῶν οὐχ ἥδυνάν μοι. |
|

|

|
| Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring weakness upon this people, and the fathers and sons shall be weak together; the neighbour and his friend shall perish. | διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δίδωμι ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ἀσθένειαν, καὶ ἀσθενήσουσιν ἐν αὐτῷ πατέρες καὶ υἱοὶ ἅμα, γείτων καὶ ὁ πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἀπολοῦνται. |
|
22
|
22
|
| Thus saith the Lord, Behold, a people comes from the north, and nations shall be stirred up from the end of the earth. | τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἰδοὺ λαὸς ἔρχεται ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ ἔθνη ἐξεγερθήσονται ἀπ’ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς· |
|
23
|
23
|
| They shall lay hold on bow and spear; the people is fierce, and will have no mercy; their voice is as the roaring sea; they shall array themselves for war against thee as fire on horses and chariots, O daughter of Sion. | τόξον καὶ ζιβύνην κρατήσουσιν, ἰταμός ἐστι καὶ οὐκ ἐλεήσει, φωνὴ αὐτοῦ ὡς θάλασσα κυμαίνουσα, ἐφ’ ἵπποις καὶ ἅρμασι παρατάξεται ὡς πῦρ εἰς πόλεμον πρὸς σέ, θύγατερ Σιών. |
|
24
|
24
|
| We have heard the report of them: our hands are weakened: anguish has seized us, the pangs as of a woman in travail. | ἠκούσαμεν τὴν ἀκοὴν αὐτῶν, παρελύθησαν αἱ χεῖρες ἡμῶν, θλίψις κατέσχεν ἡμᾶς, ὠδῖνες ὡς τικτούσης. |
|
25
|
25
|
| Go not forth into the field, and walk not in the ways; for the sword of the enemy lingers round about. | μὴ ἐκπορεύεσθε εἰς ἀγρὸν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς μὴ βαδίζετε, ὅτι ρομφαία τῶν ἐχθρῶν παροικεῖ κυκλόθεν. |
|
26
|
26
|
| O daughter of my people, gird thyself with sackcloth: sprinkle thyself with ashes; make for thyself pitiable lamentation, as the mourning for a beloved son: for misery will come suddenly upon you. | θύγατερ λαοῦ μου, περίζωσαι σάκκον, κατάπασσε ἐν σποδῷ, πένθος ἀγαπητοῦ ποίησαι σεαυτῇ, κοπετὸν οἰκτρόν, ὅτι ἐξαίφνης ἥξει ταλαιπωρία ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς. |
|
27
|
27
|
| I have caused thee to be tried among tried nations, and thou shalt know me when I have tried their way. | δοκιμαστὴν δέδωκά σε ἐν λαοῖς δεδοκιμασμένοις, καὶ γνώσῃ με ἐν τῷ δοκιμάσαι με τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτῶν· |
|
28
|
28
|
| They are all disobedient, walking perversely: they are brass and iron; they are all corrupted. | πάντες ἀνήκοοι, πορευόμενοι σκολιῶς, χαλκὸς καὶ σίδηρος, πάντες διεφθαρμένοι εἰσίν. |
|
29
|
29
|
| The bellows have failed from the fire, the lead has failed: the silversmith works at his trade in vain; their wickedness is not consumed. | ἐξέλιπε φυσητὴρ ἀπὸ πυρός, ἐξέλιπε μόλυβδος· εἰς κενὸν ἀργυροκόπος ἀργυροκοπεῖ, πονηρία αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐτάκη. |
|
30
|
30
|
| Call ye them reprobate silver, because the Lord has rejected them. | ἀργύριον ἀποδεδοκιμασμένον καλέσατε αὐτούς, ὅτι ἀπεδοκίμασεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος. |
