Jeremiah 38

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 Now Saphatias the son of Mathan, and Gedelias the son of Phassur, and Juchal the son of Selemias, and Phassur the son of Melchias heard the words that Jeremias spoke to all the people, saying:	1 εν τω χρονω εκεινω ειπεν κυριος εσομαι εις θεον τω γενει ισραηλ και αυτοι εσονται μοι εις λαον
2 Thus saith the Lord: Whosoever shell remain in this city, shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence : but he that shall go forth to the Chaldeans, shall live, and his life shall be safe, and he shall live.	2 ουτως ειπεν κυριος ευρον θερμον εν ερημω μετα ολωλοτων εν μαχαιρα βαδισατε και μη ολεσητε τον ισραηλ
3 Thus saith the Lord: This city shall surely be delivered into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it.	3 κυριος πορρωθεν ωφθη αυτω αγαπησιν αιωνιαν ηγαπησα σε δια τουτο ειλκυσα σε εις οικτιρημα
4 And the princes said to the king: We beseech thee that this man may be put to death: for on purpose he weakeneth the hands of the men of war, that remain in this city, and the hands of the people, speaking to them according to these words: for this man seeketh not peace to this people, but evil.	4 ετι οικοδομησω σε και οικοδομηθηση παρθενος ισραηλ ετι λημψη τυμπανον σου και εξελευση μετα συναγωγης παιζοντων
5 And king Sedecias said: Behold he is in your hands: for it is not lawful for the king to deny you any thing.	5 ετι φυτευσατε αμπελωνας εν ορεσιν σαμαρειας φυτευσατε και αινεσατε
6 Then they took Jeremias and cast him into the dungeon of Melchias the son of Amelech, which was in the entry of the prison: and they let down Jeremias by ropes into the dungeon, wherein there was no water, but mire. And Jeremias sunk into the mire.	6 οτι εστιν ημερα κλησεως απολογουμενων εν ορεσιν εφραιμ αναστητε και αναβητε εις σιων προς κυριον τον θεον ημων
7 Now Abdemelech the Ethiopian, an eunuch that was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremias in the dungeon: but the king was sitting in the gate of Benjamin.	7 οτι ουτως ειπεν κυριος τω ιακωβ ευφρανθητε και χρεμετισατε επι κεφαλην εθνων ακουστα ποιησατε και αινεσατε ειπατε εσωσεν κυριος τον λαον αυτου το καταλοιπον του ισραηλ
8 And Abdemelech went out of the king's house, and spoke to the king, saying:	8 ιδου εγω αγω αυτους απο βορρα και συναξω αυτους απ' εσχατου της γης εν εορτη φασεκ και τεκνοποιηση οχλον πολυν και αποστρεψουσιν ωδε
9 My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done against Jeremias the prophet, casting him into the dungeon to die there with hunger, for there is no more bread in the city.	9 εν κλαυθμω εξηλθον και εν παρακλησει αναξω αυτους αυλιζων επι διωρυγας υδατων εν οδω ορθη και ου μη πλανηθωσιν εν αυτη οτι εγενομην τω ισραηλ εις πατερα και εφραιμ πρωτοτοκος μου εστιν
10 Then the king commanded Abdemelech the Ethiopian, saying: Take from hence thirty men with thee, end draw up Jeremias the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.	10 ακουσατε λογον κυριου εθνη και αναγγειλατε εις νησους τας μακροτερον ειπατε ο λικμησας τον ισραηλ συναξει αυτον και φυλαξει αυτον ως ο βοσκων το ποιμνιον αυτου
11 So Abdemelech taking the men with him, went into the king's house that was under the storehouse: and he took from thence old rags, and old rotten things, and he let them down by cords to Jeremias into the dungeon.	11 οτι ελυτρωσατο κυριος τον ιακωβ εξειλατο αυτον εκ χειρος στερεωτερων αυτου
12 And Abdemelech the Ethiopian said to Jeremias: Put these old rags and these rent and rotten things under thy arms, and upon the cords: and Jeremias did so.	12 και ηξουσιν και ευφρανθησονται εν τω ορει σιων και ηξουσιν επ' αγαθα κυριου επι γην σιτου και οινου και καρπων και κτηνων και προβατων και εσται η ψυχη αυτων ωσπερ ξυλον εγκαρπον και ου πεινασουσιν ετι
13 And they drew up Jeremias with the cords, and brought him forth out of the dungeon. And Jeremias remained in the entry of the prison.	13 τοτε χαρησονται παρθενοι εν συναγωγη νεανισκων και πρεσβυται χαρησονται και στρεψω το πενθος αυτων εις χαρμονην και ποιησω αυτους ευφραινομενους
14 And king Sedecias sent, and took Jeremias the prophet to him to the third gate, that was in the house of the Lord: and the king said to Jeremias: I will ask thee a thing, hide nothing from me.	14 μεγαλυνω και μεθυσω την ψυχην των ιερεων υιων λευι και ο λαος μου των αγαθων μου εμπλησθησεται
15 Then Jeremias said to Sedecias: If I shall declare it to thee, wilt thou not put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, thou wilt not hearken to me.	15 ουτως ειπεν κυριος φωνη εν ραμα ηκουσθη θρηνου και κλαυθμου και οδυρμου ραχηλ αποκλαιομενη ουκ ηθελεν παυσασθαι επι τοις υιοις αυτης οτι ουκ εισιν
16 Then king Sedecias swore to Jeremias, in private, saying: As the Lord liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, nor will I deliver thee into the hands of these men that seek thy life.	16 ουτως ειπεν κυριος διαλιπετω η φωνη σου απο κλαυθμου και οι οφθαλμοι σου απο δακρυων σου οτι εστιν μισθος τοις σοις εργοις και επιστρεψουσιν εκ γης εχθρων
17 And Jeremias said to Sedecias: Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: If thou wilt take a resolution and go out to the princes of the king of Babylon, thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burnt with fire: and thou shalt be safe, and thy house.	17 μονιμον τοις σοις τεκνοις
18 But if thou wilt not go out to the princes of the king of Babylon, this city shall be delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire: and thou shalt not escape out of their hands.	18 ακοην ηκουσα εφραιμ οδυρομενου επαιδευσας με και επαιδευθην εγω ωσπερ μοσχος ουκ εδιδαχθην επιστρεψον με και επιστρεψω οτι συ κυριος ο θεος μου
19 And king Sedecias said to Jeremias: I am afraid because of the Jews that are fled over to the Chaldeans: lest I should be delivered into their hands, and they should abuse me.	19 οτι υστερον αιχμαλωσιας μου μετενοησα και υστερον του γνωναι με εστεναξα εφ' ημερας αισχυνης και υπεδειξα σοι οτι ελαβον ονειδισμον εκ νεοτητος μου
20 But Jeremias answered: They shall not deliver thee: hearken, I beseech thee, to the word of the Lord, which I speak to thee, and it shall be well with thee, and thy soul shall live.	20 υιος αγαπητος εφραιμ εμοι παιδιον εντρυφων οτι ανθ' ων οι λογοι μου εν αυτω μνεια μνησθησομαι αυτου δια τουτο εσπευσα επ' αυτω ελεων ελεησω αυτον φησιν κυριος
21 But if thou wilt not go forth, this is the word which the Lord hath shewn me:	21 στησον σεαυτην σιων ποιησον τιμωριαν δος καρδιαν σου εις τους ωμους οδον ην επορευθης αποστραφητι παρθενος ισραηλ αποστραφητι εις τας πολεις σου πενθουσα
22 Behold all the women that are left in the house of the king of Juda, shall be brought out to the princes of the king of Babylon: and they shall say: Thy men of peace have deceived thee, and have prevailed against thee, they have plunged thy feet in the mire, and in a slippery place, and they have departed from thee.	22 εως ποτε αποστρεψεις θυγατηρ ητιμωμενη οτι εκτισεν κυριος σωτηριαν εις καταφυτευσιν καινην εν σωτηρια περιελευσονται ανθρωποι
23 And all thy wives, and thy children shall be brought out to the Chaldeans, and thou shalt not escape their hands, but thou shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and he shall burn this city with fire.	23 ουτως ειπεν κυριος ετι ερουσιν τον λογον τουτον εν γη ιουδα και εν πολεσιν αυτου οταν αποστρεψω την αιχμαλωσιαν αυτου ευλογημενος κυριος επι δικαιον ορος το αγιον αυτου
24 Then Sedecias said to Jeremias: Let no man know these words, and thou shalt not die.	24 και ενοικουντες εν ταις πολεσιν ιουδα και εν παση τη γη αυτου αμα γεωργω και αρθησεται εν ποιμνιω
25 But if the princes shall hear that I have spoken with thee, and shall come to thee, and say to thee: Tell us what thou hast said to the king, hide it not from us, and we will not kill thee: and also what the king said to thee:	25 οτι εμεθυσα πασαν ψυχην διψωσαν και πασαν ψυχην πεινωσαν ενεπλησα
26 Thou shalt say to them: I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not command me to be carried back into the house of Jonathan, to die there.	26 δια τουτο εξηγερθην και ειδον και ο υπνος μου ηδυς μοι εγενηθη
27 So all the princes came to Jeremias, and asked him: and he spoke to them according to all the words that the king had commanded him: and they left him: for nothing had been heard.	27 δια τουτο ιδου ημεραι ερχονται φησιν κυριος και σπερω τον ισραηλ και τον ιουδαν σπερμα ανθρωπου και σπερμα κτηνους
28 But Jeremias remained in the entry of the prison, until the day that Jerusalem was taken: and it came to pass that Jerusalem was taken.	28 και εσται ωσπερ εγρηγορουν επ' αυτους καθαιρειν και κακουν ουτως γρηγορησω επ' αυτους του οικοδομειν και καταφυτευειν φησιν κυριος
	29 εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις ου μη ειπωσιν οι πατερες εφαγον ομφακα και οι οδοντες των τεκνων ημωδιασαν
	30 αλλ' η εκαστος εν τη εαυτου αμαρτια αποθανειται και του φαγοντος τον ομφακα αιμωδιασουσιν οι οδοντες αυτου
	31 ιδου ημεραι ερχονται φησιν κυριος και διαθησομαι τω οικω ισραηλ και τω οικω ιουδα διαθηκην καινην
	32 ου κατα την διαθηκην ην διεθεμην τοις πατρασιν αυτων εν ημερα επιλαβομενου μου της χειρος αυτων εξαγαγειν αυτους εκ γης αιγυπτου οτι αυτοι ουκ ενεμειναν εν τη διαθηκη μου και εγω ημελησα αυτων φησιν κυριος
	33 οτι αυτη η διαθηκη ην διαθησομαι τω οικω ισραηλ μετα τας ημερας εκεινας φησιν κυριος διδους δωσω νομους μου εις την διανοιαν αυτων και επι καρδιας αυτων γραψω αυτους και εσομαι αυτοις εις θεον και αυτοι εσονται μοι εις λαον
	34 και ου μη διδαξωσιν εκαστος τον πολιτην αυτου και εκαστος τον αδελφον αυτου λεγων γνωθι τον κυριον οτι παντες ειδησουσιν με απο μικρου αυτων και εως μεγαλου αυτων οτι ιλεως εσομαι ταις αδικιαις αυτων και των αμαρτιων αυτων ου μη μνησθω ετι
	35 εαν υψωθη ο ουρανος εις το μετεωρον φησιν κυριος και εαν ταπεινωθη το εδαφος της γης κατω και εγω ουκ αποδοκιμω το γενος ισραηλ φησιν κυριος περι παντων ων εποιησαν
	36 ουτως ειπεν κυριος ο δους τον ηλιον εις φως της ημερας σεληνην και αστερας εις φως της νυκτος και κραυγην εν θαλασση και εβομβησεν τα κυματα αυτης κυριος παντοκρατωρ ονομα αυτω
	37 εαν παυσωνται οι νομοι ουτοι απο προσωπου μου φησιν κυριος και το γενος ισραηλ παυσεται γενεσθαι εθνος κατα προσωπον μου πασας τας ημερας
	38 ιδου ημεραι ερχονται φησιν κυριος και οικοδομηθησεται πολις τω κυριω απο πυργου αναμεηλ εως πυλης της γωνιας
	39 και εξελευσεται η διαμετρησις αυτης απεναντι αυτων εως βουνων γαρηβ και περικυκλωθησεται κυκλω εξ εκλεκτων λιθων
	40 και παντες ασαρημωθ εως ναχαλ κεδρων εως γωνιας πυλης ιππων ανατολης αγιασμα τω κυριω και ουκετι ου μη εκλιπη και ου μη καθαιρεθη εως του αιωνος
