Ἀκούσατε τὸν λόγον Κυρίου ὃν ἐλάλησεν ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς, οἶκος Ἰσραήλ.

τάδε λέγει Κύριος Κατὰ τὰς ὁδοὺς τῶν ἐθνῶν μὴ μανθάνετε, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν σημείων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ μὴ φοβεῖσθε, ὅτι φοβοῦνται αὐτὰ τοῖς προσώποις αὐτῶν.

ὅτι τὰ νόμιμα τῶν ἐθνῶν μάταια· ξύλον ἐστὶν ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ ἐκκεκομμένον, ἔργον τέκτονος καὶ χώνευμα,

ἀργυρίῳ καὶ χρυσίῳ κεκαλλωπισμένα· ἐν σφύραις καὶ ἥλοις ἐστερέωσαν αὐτά· θήσουσιν αὐτὰ καὶ οὐ κινηθήσονται·

aἀργύριον τορευτόν ἐστιν, οὐ πορεύσονται,

ἀργύριον προσβλητὸν ἀπὸ Θαρσεὶς ἥξει, χρυσίον Μωφάζ, καὶ χεὶρ χρυσοχόων, ἔργα τεχνιτῶν πάντα· ὑάκινθον καὶ πορφύραν ἐνδύσουσιν αὐτά·

bαἰρόμενα ἀρθήσονται, ὅτι οὐκ ἐπιβήσονται. μὴ φοβηθῆτε αὐτά, ὅτι οὐ μὴ κακοποιήσωσιν, καὶ ἀγαθὸν οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς.

Οὕτως ἐρεῖτε αὐτοῖς Θεοὶ οἳ τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν ¹³ γῆν οὐκ ἐποίησαν ἀπολέσθωσαν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ὑποκάτωθεν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τούτου.

Κύριος ὁ ποιήσας τὴν γῆν ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι αὐτοῦ, ὁ ἀνορθώσας τὴν οἰκουμένην ἐν τῇ σοφίᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τῇ φρονήσει αὺτοῦ ἐξέτεινεν τὸν οὐρανὸν

καὶ πλῆθος ὕδατος ἐν οὐρανῷ, καὶ ἀνήγαγεν νεφέλας ἐξ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς· ἀστραπὰς εἰς ὑετὸν ἐποίησεν, καὶ ἐξήγαγεν φῶς ἐκ θησαυρῶν αὐτοῦ.

ἐμωράνθη πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ἀπὸ γνώσεως, κατῃσχύνθη πᾶς χρυσοχόος ἐπὶ τοῖς γλυπτοῖς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ψευδῆ ἐχώνευσεν, οὐκ ἔστιν πνεῦμα ἐν αὐτοῖς.

μάταιά ἐστιν ἔργα ἐνπεπαιγμένα, ἐν καιρῷ ἐπισκοπῆς αὐτῶν ἀπολοῦνται.

οὐκ ἔστιν τοιαύτη μερὶς τῷ Ἰακώβ, ὅτι ὁ πλάσας τὰ πάντα αὐτὸς κληρονομία αὐτοῦ, Κύριος ὄνομα αὐτῷ.

Συνήγαγεν ἔξωθεν τὴν ὑπόστασίν σου, κατοικοῦσα ἐν ἐκλεκτοῖς.

ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ σκελίζω τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν ταύτην ἐν θλίψει ὅπως εὑρεθῇ ἡ πληγή σου.

οὐαὶ ἐπὶ συντρίμματί σου, ἀλγηρὰ ἡ πληγὴ σου. κἀγὼ εἶπα Ὄντως τοῦτο τὸ τραῦμά σου, καὶ κατέλαβέν σε.

ἡ σκηνή σου ἐταλαιπώρησεν, ὤλετο, καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ δέρρεις σου διεσπάσθησαν· οἱ υἱοί μου καὶ τὰ πρόβατά μου οὐκ εἰσίν, οὐκ ἔστιν ἔτι τόπος τῆς σκηνῆς μου, τόπος τῶν δέρρεών μου.

ὅτι οἱ ποιμένες ἠφρονεύσαντο, καὶ τὸν κύριον οὐκ ἐζήτησαν· διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἐνόησεν πᾶσα ἡ νομή, καὶ διεσκορπίσθησαν.

φωνὴ ἀκοῆς ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται καὶ σεισμὸς μέγας ἐκ γῆς βορρᾶ τοῦ τάξαι τὰς πόλεις Ἰούδα εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ κοίτην στρουθῶν.

οἶδα, Κύριε, ὅτι οὐχὶ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτοῦ, οὐδὲ ἀνὴρ πορεύσεται καὶ κατορθώσει πορείαν αὐτοῦ.

παίδευσον ἡμᾶς, Κύριε, πλὴν ἐν κρίσει καὶ μὴ ἐν θυμῷ, ἵνα μὴ ὀλίγους ἡμᾶς ποιήσῃς.

⁴⁵

ἔκχεον τὸν θυμόν σου ἐπὶ ἔθνη τὰ μὴ εἰδότα σε καὶ ἐπὶ γενεὰς αἱ τὸ ⁶ ὄνομά σου οὺκ ἐκεκαλέσαντο. ὅτι κατέφαγον τὸν Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἐξανήλωσαν αὐτόν, καὶ τὴν νομὴν αὐτοῦ ἠρήμωσαν.

Ἱερεμίας (Greek) (Septuaginta. The Old Testament in Greek According to the Septuagint. Volume 3: Hosea-4 Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Enoch, The Odes. Swete, Henry Barclay, editor. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1905)

Translations (1)

Jeremiah Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 10 focus

Hear you the word which Yahweh speaks to you, house of Israel:

thus says Yahweh, "Don't learn the way of the nations, and don't be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them.

For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the ax.

They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it not move.

They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and don't speak: they must be carried, because they can't go. Don't be afraid of them; for they can't do evil, neither is it in them to do good.

There is none like you, Yahweh; you are great, and your name is great in might.

Who should not fear you, King of the nations? for to you does it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like you.

But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols! it is but a stock.

There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the artificer and of the hands of the goldsmith; blue and purple for their clothing; they are all the work of skillful men.

But Yahweh is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembles, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation.

Thus shall you say to them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.

He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens:

when he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightnings for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries.

Every man is become brutish [and is] without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his engraved image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: Yahweh of Hosts is his name.

Gather up your wares out of the land, you who abide in the siege.

For thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel [it].

Woe is me because of my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is [my] grief, and I must bear it.

My tent is destroyed, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth from me, and they are no more: there is none to spread my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.

For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of Yahweh: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.

The voice of news, behold, it comes, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling-place of jackals.

Yahweh, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.

Yahweh, correct me, but in measure: not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.

Pour out your wrath on the nations that don't know you, and on the families that don't call on your name: for they have devoured Jacob, yes, they have devoured him and consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.
