2 Samuel 13

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 And it came to pass after this, that Amnon the son of David loved the sister of Absalom the son of David, who was very beautiful, and her name was Thamar.	1 Μετα δε ταυτα Αβεσσαλωμ ο υιος του Δαβιδ ειχεν αδελφην ωραιαν, ονοματι Θαμαρ, και ηγαπησεν αυτην Αμνων ο υιος του Δαβιδ.
2 And he was exceedingly fond of her, so that he fell sick for the love of her: for as she was a virgin, he thought it hard to do any thing dishonestly with her.	2 Και επασχε τοσον ο Αμνων, ωστε ηρρωστησε δια την αδελφην αυτου Θαμαρ? διοτι ητο παρθενος, και εφαινετο εις τον Αμνων δυσκολωτατον να πραξη τι εις αυτην.
3 Now Amnon had a friend, named Jonadab the son of Semmaa the brother of David, a very wise man:	3 ειχε δε ο Αμνων φιλον, ονομαζομενον Ιωναδαβ, υιον του Σαμαα, αδελφου του Δαβιδ? ητο δε ο Ιωναδαβ ανθρωπος πανουργος σφοδρα.
4 And he said to him: Why dost thou grow so lean from day to day, O son of the king? why dost thou not tell me the reason of it? And Amnon said to him: I am in love with Thamar the sister of my brother Absalom.	4 Και ειπε προς αυτον, Δια τι συ, υιε του βασιλεως, αδυνατεις τοσον απο ημερας εις ημεραν; δεν θελεις φανερωσει τουτο προς εμε; Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Αμνων, Αγαπω Θαμαρ, την αδελφην Αβεσσαλωμ του αδελφου μου.
5 And Jonadab said to him: Lie down upon thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father shall come to visit thee, say to him: Let my sister Thamar, I pray thee, come to me, to give me to eat, and to make me a mess, that I may eat it at her hand.	5 Και ο Ιωναδαβ ειπε προς αυτον, Πλαγιασον επι της κλινης σου και προσποιηθητι τον αρρωστον? και οταν ο πατηρ σου ελθη να σε ιδη, ειπε προς αυτον, Ας ελθη, παρακαλω, Θαμαρ η αδελφη μου, και ας μοι δωση να φαγω, και ας ετοιμαση εμπροσθεν μου το φαγητον, δια να ιδω και να φαγω εκ της χειρος αυτης.
6 So Amnon lay down, and made as if he were sick: and when the king came to visit him, Amnon said to the king: I pray thee let my sister Thamar come, and make in my sight two little messes, that I may eat at her hand.	6 Και επλαγιασεν ο Αμνων και προσεποιηθη τον αρρωστον? και οτε ηλθεν ο βασιλευς να ιδη αυτον, ειπεν ο Αμνων προς τον βασιλεα, Ας ελθη, παρακαλω, Θαμαρ η αδελφη μου, και ας καμη εμπροσθεν μου δυο κολλυρια, δια να φαγω εκ της χειρος αυτης.
7 Then David sent home to Thamar, saying: Come to the house of thy brother Amnon, and make him a mess.	7 Και απεστειλεν ο Δαβιδ εις τον οικον προς την Θαμαρ, λεγων, Υπαγε τωρα εις τον οικον του αδελφου σου Αμνων, και ετοιμασον εις αυτον φαγητον.
8 And Thamar came to the house of Amnon her brother: but he was laid down: and she took meal and tempered it: and dissolving it in his sight she made little messes.	8 Και υπηγεν η Θαμαρ εις τον οικον του αδελφου αυτης Αμνων, οστις ητο πλαγιασμενος? και ελαβε το αλευρον και εζυμωσε και εκαμε κολλυρια εμπροσθεν αυτου και εψησε τα κολλυρια.
9 And taking what she had boiled, she poured it out, and set it before him, but he would not eat: and Amnon said: Put out all persons from me. And when they had put all persons out,	9 Επειτα ελαβε το τηγανιον και εκενωσεν αυτα εμπροσθεν αυτου? πλην δεν ηθελησε να φαγη. Και ειπεν ο Αμνων, Εκβαλετε παντα ανθρωπον απ' εμπροσθεν μου. Και εξηλθον απ' αυτου παντες.
10 Amnon said to Thamar: Bring the mess into the chamber, that I may eat at thy hand. And Thamar took the little messes which she had made, and brought them in to her brother Amnon in the chamber.	10 Και ειπεν ο Αμνων προς την Θαμαρ, Φερε το φαγητον εις τον κοιτωνα, δια να φαγω εκ της χειρος σου. Και η Θαμαρ ελαβε τα κολλυρια, τα οποια εκαμε, και εφερεν εις τον κοιτωνα προς Αμνων τον αδελφον αυτης.
11 And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister.	11 Και οτε προσεφερε προς αυτον δια να φαγη, επιασεν αυτην και ειπε προς αυτην, Ελθε, κοιμηθητι μετ' εμου, αδελφη μου.
12 She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly.	12 Η δε ειπε προς αυτον, Μη, αδελφε μου, μη με ταπεινωσης? διοτι δεν πρεπει τοιουτον πραγμα να γεινη εν τω Ισραηλ? μη καμης την αφροσυνην ταυτην?
13 For I shall not be able to bear my shame, and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel: but rather speak to the king, and he will not deny me to thee.	13 και εγω πως θελω απαλειψει το ονειδος μου; αλλα και συ θελεις εισθαι ως εις εκ των αφρονων εν τω Ισραηλ? τωρα λοιπον, παρακαλω, λαλησον προς τον βασιλεα? διοτι δεν θελει με αρνηθη εις σε.
14 But he would not hearken to her prayers, but being stronger overpowered her and lay with her.	14 Δεν ηθελησεν ομως να εισακουση της φωνης αυτης? αλλ' υπερισχυσας εκεινης, εβιασεν αυτην και εκοιμηθη μετ' αυτης.
15 Then Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred: so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her before, And Amnon said to her: Arise, and get thee gone.	15 Τοτε ο Αμνων εμισησεν αυτην μισος μεγα σφοδρα? ωστε το μισος, με το οποιον εμισησεν αυτην, ητο μεγαλητερον παρα την αγαπην, με την οποιαν ηγαπησεν αυτην. Και ειπε προς αυτην ο Αμνων, Σηκωθητι, υπαγε.
16 She answered him: This evil which now thou dost against me, in driving me away, is greater than that which thou didst before. And he would not hearken to her:	16 Η δε ειπε προς αυτον, Δεν ειναι αιτια? το κακον τουτο, το να μη αποβαλης, ειναι μεγαλητερον του αλλου, το οποιον επραξας εις εμε. Δεν ηθελησεν ομως να εισακουση αυτης.
17 But calling the servants that ministered to him, he said: Thrust this woman out from me: and shut the door after her.	17 Και εκραξε τον νεον αυτου τον υπηρετουντα αυτον και ειπεν, Εκβαλε τωρα ταυτην απ' εμου εξω, και μοχλωσον την θυραν κατοπιν αυτης.
18 And she was clothed with along robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments. Then his servant thrust her out: and shut the door after her.	18 Ητο δε ενδεδυμενη χιτωνα ποικιλοχρουν? διοτι αι θυγατερες του βασιλεως, αι παρθενοι, τοιαυτα επενδυματα ενεδυοντο. Και εξεβαλεν αυτην εξω ο υπηρετης αυτου και εμοχλωσε την θυραν κατοπιν αυτης.
19 And she put ashes on her head, and rent her long robe and laid her hands upon her head, and went on crying.	19 Λαβουσα δε η Θαμαρ στακτην επι της κεφαλης αυτης, και διασχισασα τον εφ' αυτης χιτωνα τον ποικιλοχρουν, και βαλουσα τας χειρας αυτης επι της κεφαλης αυτης, απηρχετο, πορευομενη και κραζουσα.
20 And Absalom her brother said to her: Hath thy brother Amnon lain with thee? but now, sister, hold thy peace, he is thy brother: and afflict not thy heart for this thing. So Thamar remained pining away in the house of Absalom her brother.	20 Και ειπε προς αυτην Αβεσσαλωμ ο αδελφος αυτης, Μηπως Αμνων ο αδελφος σου ευρεθη μετα σου; πλην τωρα σιωπησον, αδελφη μου? αδελφος σου ειναι μη καταθλιβε την καρδιαν σου δια το πραγμα τουτο. Η Θαμαρ λοιπον εκαθητο χηρευουσα εν τω οικω του αδελφου αυτης Αβεσσαλωμ.
21 And when king David heard of these things he was exceedingly grieved: and he would not afflict the spirit of his son Amnon, for he loved him, because he was his firstborn.	21 Ακουσας δε ο βασιλευς Δαβιδ παντα ταυτα τα πραγματα, εθυμωθη σφοδρα.
22 But Absalom spoke not to Amnon neither good nor evil: for Absalom hated Amnon because he had ravished his sister Thamar.	22 Ο δε Αβεσσαλωμ δεν ελαλησε μετα του Αμνων ουτε καλον ουτε κακον? διοτι εμισει ο Αβεσσαλωμ τον Αμνων, επειδη εταπεινωσε την αδελφην αυτου Θαμαρ.
23 And it came to pass after two years, that the sheep of Absalom were shorn in Baalhasor, which is near Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons:	23 Και μετα δυο ολοκληρα ετη, ο Αβεσσαλωμ ειχε κουρευτας εν Βααλ-ασωρ, ητις ειναι πλησιον του Εφραιμ, και προσεκαλεσεν ο Αβεσσαλωμ παντας τους υιους του βασιλεως.
24 And he came to the king, and said to him: Behold thy servant's sheep are shorn. Let the king, I pray, with his servants come to his servant.	24 Και ηλθεν ο Αβεσσαλωμ προς τον βασιλεα και ειπεν, Ιδου, τωρα, ο δουλος σου εχει κουρευτας? ας ελθη, παρακαλω, ο βασιλευς και οι δουλοι αυτου μετα του δουλου σου.
25 And the king said to Absalom: Nay, my son, do not ask that we should all come, and be chargeable to thee. And when he pressed him, and he would not go, he blessed him.	25 Και ειπεν ο βασιλευς προς τον Αβεσσαλωμ, Ουχι, υιε μου, ας μη ελθωμεν τωρα παντες, δια να μη ημεθα βαρος εις σε. Και εβιασεν αυτον, πλην δεν ηθελησε να υπαγη, αλλ' ευλογησεν αυτον.
26 And Absalom said: If thou wilt not come, at least let my brother Amnon, I beseech thee, come with us. And the king said to him: It is not necessary that he should go with thee.	26 Τοτε ειπεν ο Αβεσσαλωμ, Αν οχι, ας ελθη καν μεθ' ημων Αμνων, ο αδελφος μου. Και ειπεν ο βασιλευς προς αυτον, Δια τι να ελθη μετα σου;
27 But Absalom pressed him, so that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a feast as it were the feast of a king.	27 πλην ο Αβεσσαλωμ εβιασεν αυτον, ωστε απεστειλε μετ' αυτου τον Αμνων και παντας τους υιους του βασιλεως.
28 And Absalom had commanded his servants, saying: Take notice when Amnon shall be drunk with wine, and when I shall say to you: Strike him, and kill him, fear not: for it is I that command you: take courage, and be valiant men.	28 Τοτε προσεταξεν ο Αβεσσαλωμ τους υπηρετας αυτου λεγων. Ιδετε τωρα οταν ευφρανθη η καρδια του Αμνων εκ του οινου, και ειπω προς εσας, Παταξατε τον Αμνων, τοτε θανατωσατε αυτον? μη φοβεισθε? δεν ειμαι εγω οστις σας προσταζω; ανδριζεσθε και γινεσθε υιοι δυναμεως.
29 And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded them. And all the king's sons arose and got up every man upon his mule, and fled.	29 Και εκαμον οι υπηρεται του Αβεσσαλωμ προς τον Αμνων, ως προσεταξεν ο Αβεσσαλωμ. Τοτε σηκωθεντες παντες οι υιοι του βασιλεως, εκαθησαν εκαστος επι της ημιονου αυτου και εφυγον.
30 And while they were yet in the way, a rumour came to David, saying: Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.	30 Ενω δε ουτοι ησαν καθ' οδον, η φημη εφθασε προς τον Δαβιδ, λεγουσα, Ο Αβεσσαλωμ επαταξε παντας τους υιους του βασιλεως, και δεν εναπελειφθη εξ αυτων ουδε εις.
31 Then the king rose up, and rent his garments: and fell upon the ground, and all his servants, that stood about him, rent their garments.	31 Τοτε σηκωθεις ο βασιλευς διεσχισε τα ιματια αυτου και επλαγιασε κατα γης? και παντες οι δουλοι αυτου οι περιεστωτες διεσχισαν τα ιματια αυτων.
32 But Jonadab the son of Semmaa David's brother answering, said: Let not my lord the king think that all the king's sons are slain: Amnon only is dead, for he was appointed by the mouth of Absalom from the day that he ravished his sister Thamar.	32 Και απεκριθη Ιωναδαβ, ο υιος του Σαμαα, αδελφου του Δαβιδ, και ειπεν, Ας μη λεγη ο κυριος μου οτι εθανατωθησαν παντες οι νεοι, οι υιοι του βασιλεως? διοτι ο Αμνων μονος απεθανεν? επειδη ο Αβεσσαλωμ ειχεν αποφασισει τουτο, αφ' ης ημερας εταπεινωσε Θαμαρ την αδελφην αυτου?
33 Now therefore let not my lord the king take this thing into his heart, saying: All the king's sons are slain: for Amnon only is dead.	33 τωρα λοιπον ας μη βαλη ο κυριος μου ο βασιλευς το πραγμα εν τη καρδια αυτου, λεγων οτι παντες οι υιοι του βασιλεως απεθανον? διοτι ο Αμνων μονος απεθανεν.
34 But Absalom fled away: and the young man that kept the watch, lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold there came much people by a by-way on the side of the mountain.	34 Ο δε Αβεσσαλωμ εφυγε. Και υψωσας ο νεος, ο σκοπος, τους οφθαλμους αυτου, ειδε, και ιδου, λαος πολυς επορευετο δια της οδου οπισθεν αυτου κατα το πλευρον του ορους.
35 And Jonadab said to the king: Behold the king's sons are come: as thy servant said, so it is.	35 Και ειπεν ο Ιωναδαβ προς τον βασιλεα, Ιδου, οι υιοι του βασιλεως ερχονται κατα τον λογον του δουλου σου, ουτως εγεινε.
36 And when he made an end of speaking, the king's sons also appeared: and coming in they lifted up their voice, and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very much.	36 Και ως ετελειωσε λαλων, ιδου, οι υιοι του βασιλεως ηλθον και υψωσαν την φωνην αυτων και εκλαυσαν? και ο βασιλευς ετι, και παντες οι δουλοι αυτου εκλαυσαν κλαυθμον μεγαν σφοδρα.
37 But Absalom fled, and went to Tholomai the son of Ammiud the king of Gessur. And David mourned for his son every day.	37 Ο δε Αβεσσαλωμ εφυγε και υπηγε προς τον Θαλμαι, υιον του Αμμιουδ, βασιλεα της Γεσσουρ? και επενθησεν ο Δαβιδ δια τον υιον αυτου πασας τας ημερας.
38 And Absalom after he was fled, and come into Gessur, was there three years. And king David ceased to pursue after Absalom, because he was comforted concerning the death of Amnon.	38 Ο Αβεσσαλωμ λοιπον εφυγε και υπηγεν εις Γεσσουρ, και ητο εκει τρια ετη.
	39 Επεποθησε δε ο βασιλευς Δαβιδ να υπαγη προς τον Αβεσσαλωμ, διοτι ειχε παρηγορηθη δια τον θανατον του Αμνων.
