Jeremias 33

1IN THE BEGINNING OF THE REIGN OF KING JOAKIM SON OF JOSIAS THERE CAME THIS WORD FROM THE LORD.ἘΝ ἈΡΧΗ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ἸΩΑΚΕΙΜ ΥΙΟΥ ἸΩΣΙΑ, ἘΓΕΝΗΘΗ Ὁ ΛΟΓΟΣ ΟΥΤΟΣ ΠΑΡΑ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ·

2Thus said the Lord; Stand in the court of the Lord's house, and you shall declare to all the Jews, and to all that come to worship in the house of the Lord, all the words which I commanded you to speak to them; abate not one word.Οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος, στῆθι ἐν αὐλῇ οἴκου Κυρίου, καὶ χρηματιεῖς ἅπασι τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις, καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐρχομένοις προσκυνεῖν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου, ἅπαντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς συνέταξά σοι χρηματίσαι αὐτοῖς, μὴ ἀφέλῃς ῥῆμα.

3Peradventure they will hear, and turn every one from his evil way: then I will cease from the evils which I purpose to do to them, because of their evil practices.Ἴσως ἀκούσονται, καὶ ἀποστραφήσονται ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ τῆς πονηρᾶς, καὶ παύσομαι ἀπὸ τῶν κακῶν ὧν ἐγὼ λογίζομαι τοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτοῖς ἕνεκεν τῶν πονηρῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων αὐτῶν.

4And you shall say, Thus said the Lord; If you will not listen to me, to walk in my statutes which I set before you,Καὶ ἐρεῖς, οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος, ἐὰν μὴ ἀκούσητέ μου, τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ἐν τοῖς νομίμοις μου οἷς ἔδωκα κατὰ πρόσωπον ὑμῶν,

5to listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send to you early in the morning; yes, I sent them, but you listened not to me;εἰσακούειν τῶν λόγων τῶν παίδων μου τῶν προφητῶν, οὓς ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὄρθρου, καὶ ἀπέστειλα, καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατέ μου,

6then will I make this house as Selo, and I will make this city a curse to all the nations of all the earth.καὶ δώσω τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον ὥσπερ Σηλὼ, καὶ τὴν πόλιν δώσω εἰς κατάραν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσι πάσης τῆς γῆς.

7And the priests, and the false prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.Καὶ ἤκουσαν οἱ ἱερεῖς, καὶ οἱ ψευδοπροφῆται, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τοῦ Ἱερεμίου λαλοῦντος τοὺς λόγους τούτους ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.

8And it came to pass, when Jeremias had ceased speaking all that the Lord had ordered him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the false prophets and all the people took him, saying,Καὶ ἐγένετο Ἱερεμίου παυσαμένου λαλοῦντος πάντα ἃ συνέταξε Κύριος αὐτῷ λαλῆσαι παντὶ τῷ λαῷ, καὶ συνελάβοσαν αὐτὸν οἱ ἱερεῖς, καὶ οἱ ψευδοπροφῆται, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς, λέγων, θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ,

9You shall surely die, because you have prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be as Selo, and this city shall be made quite destitute of inhabitants. And all the people assembled against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.ὅτι ἐπροφήτευσας τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου, λέγων, ὥσπερ Σηλὼ ἔσται ὁ οἶκος οὗτος, καὶ ἡ πόλις αὕτη ἐρημωθήσεται ἀπὸ κατοικούντων· Καὶ ἐξεκκλησιάσθη πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐπὶ Ἱερεμίαν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.

10And the princes of Juda heard this word, and they went up out of the house of the king to the house of the Lord, and sat in the entrance of the new gate.Καὶ ἤκουσαν οἱ ἄρχοντες Ἰούδα τὸν λόγον τοῦτον, καὶ ἀνέβησαν ἐξ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ ἐκάθισαν ἐν προθύροις πύλης τῆς καινῆς.

11Then the priests and the false prophets said to the princes and to all the people, The judgment of death is due to this man; because he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.Καὶ εἶπαν οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ ψευδοπροφῆται πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας, καὶ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ, κρίσις θανάτου τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τούτῳ, ὅτι ἐπροφήτευσε κατὰ τῆς πόλεως ταύτης, καθὼς ἠκούσατε ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ὑμῶν.

12Then Jeremias spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying, The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city, all the words which you have heard.Καὶ εἶπεν Ἱερεμίας πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας, καὶ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ, λέγων, Κύριος ἀπέστειλέ με προφητεῦσαι ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον, καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην, πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἠκούσατε.

13And now amend your ways and your works, and listen to the voice of the Lord; and the Lord shall cease from the evils which he has pronounced against you.Καὶ νῦν βελτίους ποιήσατε τὰς ὁδοὺς ὑμῶν, καὶ τὰ ἔργα ὑμῶν, καὶ ἀκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς Κυρίου, καὶ παύσεται Κύριος ἀπὸ τῶν κακῶν ὧν ἐλάλησεν ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς.

14And behold, I am in your hands; do to me as is expedient, and as it is best for you.Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐν χερσὶν ὑμῶν, ποιήσατέ μοι ὡς συμφέρει, καὶ ὡς βέλτιον ὑμῖν.

15But know for a certainty, that if you kill me, you bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon them that dwell in it; for in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak in your ears all these words.Ἀλλʼ ἢ γνόντες γνώσεσθε, ὅτι εἰ ἀναιρεῖτέ με, αἷμα ἀθῶον δίδοτε ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην, καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν αὐτῇ· ὅτι ἐν ἀληθείᾳ ἀπέσταλκέ με Κύριος πρὸς ὑμᾶς λαλῆσαι εἰς τὰ ὦτα ὑμῶν πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους.

16Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the false prophets; Judgment of death is not due to this man; for he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.Καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄρχοντες καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς πρὸς τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ψευδοπροφήτας, οὐκ ἔστι τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τούτῳ κρίσις θανάτου, ὅτι ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐλάλησε πρὸς ἡμᾶς.

17And there rose up men of the elders of the land, and said to all the assembly of the people,Καὶ ἀνέστησαν ἄνδρες τῶν πρεσβυτέρων τῆς γῆς, καὶ εἶπαν πάσῃ τῇ συναγωγῇ τοῦ λαοῦ,

18Michaeas the Morathite lived in the days of Ezekias king of Juda, and said to all the people of Juda, Thus says the Lord; Sion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become a desolation, and the mountain of the house shall be a thicket of trees.Μιχαίας ὁ Μωραθίτης ἦν ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἐζεκίου βασιλέως Ἰούδα, καὶ εἶπε παντὶ τῷ λαῷ Ἰούδα, οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος, Σιὼν ὡς ἀγρὸς ἀροτριαθήσεται, καὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς ἄβατον ἔσται, καὶ τὸ ὄρος τοῦ οἴκου εἰς ἄλσος δρυμοῦ.

19Did Ezekias and all Juda in any way kill him? Was it not that they feared the Lord, and they made supplication before the Lord, and the Lord ceased from the evils which he had pronounced against them? whereas we have wrought great evil against our own souls.Μὴ ἀνελὼν ἀνεῖλεν αὐτὸν Ἐζεκίας καὶ πᾶς Ἰούδα; οὐχ ὅτι ἐφοβήθησαν τὸν Κύριον, καὶ ὅτι ἐδεήθησαν τοῦ προσώπου Κυρίου, καὶ ἐπαύσατο Κύριος ἀπὸ τῶν κακῶν ὧν ἐλάλησεν ἐπʼ αὐτούς; καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐποιήσαμεν κακὰ μεγάλα ἐπὶ ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.

20And there was another man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Samaeas of Cariathiarim; and he prophesied concerning this land according to all the words of Jeremias.Καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἦν προφητεύων τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου, Οὐρίας υἱὸς Σαμαίου ἐκ Καριαθιαρὶμ, καὶ ἐπροφήτευσε περὶ τῆς γῆς ταύτης κατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους Ἱερεμίου.

21And king Joakim and all the princes heard all his words, and sought to kill him; and Urias heard it and went into Egypt.Καὶ ἤκουσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰωακεὶμ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες πάντας τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐζήτουν ἀποκτεῖναι αὐτόν· καὶ ἤκουσεν Οὐρίας, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Αἴγυπτον.

22And the king sent men into Egypt;Καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἄνδρας εἰς Αἴγυπτον,

23and they brought him thence, and brought him into the king; and he struck him with the sword, and cast him into the sepulchre of the children of his people.καὶ ἐξηγάγοσαν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν, καὶ εἰσηγάγοσαν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ἐν μαχαίρᾳ, καὶ ἔῤῥιψεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ μνῆμα υἱῶν λαοῦ αὐτοῦ.

24Nevertheless the hand of Achicam son of Saphan was with Jeremias, to prevent his being delivered into the hands of the people, or being killed.Πλὴν χεὶρ Ἀχεικὰμ υἱοῦ Σαφὰν ἦν μετὰ Ἱερεμίου, τοῦ μὴ παραδοῦναι αὐτὸν εἰς χεῖρας τοῦ λαοῦ, μὴ ἀνελεῖν αὐτόν.
