ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Α´ - 1 Samuele - Kings I 2

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 και ειπεν εστερεωθη η καρδια μου εν κυριω υψωθη κερας μου εν θεω μου επλατυνθη επι εχθρους το στομα μου ευφρανθην εν σωτηρια σου	1 My heart hath rejoiced in the Lord, and my horn is exalted in my God: my mouth is enlarged over my enemies: because I have joyed in thy salvation.
2 οτι ουκ εστιν αγιος ως κυριος και ουκ εστιν δικαιος ως ο θεος ημων ουκ εστιν αγιος πλην σου	2 There is none holy as the Lord is: for there is no other beside thee, and there is none strong like our God.
3 μη καυχασθε και μη λαλειτε υψηλα μη εξελθατω μεγαλορρημοσυνη εκ του στοματος υμων οτι θεος γνωσεων κυριος και θεος ετοιμαζων επιτηδευματα αυτου	3 Do not multiply to speak lofty things, boasting: let old matters depart from your mouth: for the Lord is a God of all knowledge, and to him are thoughts prepared.
4 τοξον δυνατων ησθενησεν και ασθενουντες περιεζωσαντο δυναμιν	4 The bow of the mighty is overcome, and the weak are girt with strength.
5 πληρεις αρτων ηλαττωθησαν και οι πεινωντες παρηκαν γην οτι στειρα ετεκεν επτα και η πολλη εν τεκνοις ησθενησεν	5 They that were full before have hired out themselves for bread: and the hungry are filled, so that the barren hath borne many: and she that had many children is weakened.
6 κυριος θανατοι και ζωογονει καταγει εις αδου και αναγει	6 The Lord killeth and maketh alive, he bringeth down to hell and bringeth back again.
7 κυριος πτωχιζει και πλουτιζει ταπεινοι και ανυψοι	7 The Lord maketh poor and maketh rich, he humbleth and he exalteth.
8 ανιστα απο γης πενητα και απο κοπριας εγειρει πτωχον καθισαι μετα δυναστων λαων και θρονον δοξης κατακληρονομων αυτοις	8 He raiseth up the needy from the dust, and lifteth up the poor from the dunghill: that he may sit with princes, and hold the throne of glory. For the poles of the earth are the Lord's, and upon them he hath set the world.
9 διδους ευχην τω ευχομενω και ευλογησεν ετη δικαιου οτι ουκ εν ισχυι δυνατος ανηρ	9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness, because no man shall prevail by his own strength.
10 κυριος ασθενη ποιησει αντιδικον αυτου κυριος αγιος μη καυχασθω ο φρονιμος εν τη φρονησει αυτου και μη καυχασθω ο δυνατος εν τη δυναμει αυτου και μη καυχασθω ο πλουσιος εν τω πλουτω αυτου αλλ' η εν τουτω καυχασθω ο καυχωμενος συνιειν και γινωσκειν τον κυριον και ποιειν κριμα και δικαιοσυνην εν μεσω της γης κυριος ανεβη εις ουρανους και εβροντησεν αυτος κρινει ακρα γης και διδωσιν ισχυν τοις βασιλευσιν ημων και υψωσει κερας χριστου αυτου	10 The adversaries of the Lord shall fear him: and upon them shall he thunder in the heavens. The Lord shall judge the ends of the earth, and he shall give empire to his king, and shall exalt the horn of his Christ.
11 και κατελιπον αυτον εκει ενωπιον κυριου και απηλθον εις αρμαθαιμ και το παιδαριον ην λειτουργων τω προσωπω κυριου ενωπιον ηλι του ιερεως	11 And Elcana went to Ramatha, to his house: but the child ministered in the sight of the Lord before the face of Heli the priest.
12 και οι υιοι ηλι του ιερεως υιοι λοιμοι ουκ ειδοτες τον κυριον	12 Now the sons of Heli were children of Belial, not knowing the Lord,
13 και το δικαιωμα του ιερεως παρα του λαου παντος του θυοντος και ηρχετο το παιδαριον του ιερεως ως αν ηψηθη το κρεας και κρεαγρα τριοδους εν τη χειρι αυτου	13 Nor the office of the priests to the people: but whosoever had offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest came, while the flesh was in boiling, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand,
14 και επαταξεν αυτην εις τον λεβητα τον μεγαν η εις το χαλκιον η εις την κυθραν παν ο εαν ανεβη εν τη κρεαγρα ελαμβανεν εαυτω ο ιερευς κατα ταδε εποιουν παντι ισραηλ τοις ερχομενοις θυσαι κυριω εν σηλωμ	14 And thrust it into the kettle, or into the caldron, or into the pot, or into the pan: and all that the fleshhook brought up, the priest took to himself. Thus did they to all Israel that came to Silo.
15 και πριν θυμιαθηναι το στεαρ ηρχετο το παιδαριον του ιερεως και ελεγεν τω ανδρι τω θυοντι δος κρεας οπτησαι τω ιερει και ου μη λαβω παρα σου εφθον εκ του λεβητος	15 Also before they burnt the fat, the servant of the priest came, and said to the man that sacrificed: Give me flesh to boil for the priest: for I will not take of thee sodden flesh, but raw.
16 και ελεγεν ο ανηρ ο θυων θυμιαθητω πρωτον ως καθηκει το στεαρ και λαβε σεαυτω εκ παντων ων επιθυμει η ψυχη σου και ειπεν ουχι οτι νυν δωσεις και εαν μη λημψομαι κραταιως	16 And he that sacrificed said to him: Let the fat first be burnt to day according to the custom, and then take as much as thy soul desireth. But he answered and said to him: Not so: but thou shalt give it me now, or else I will take it by force.
17 και ην η αμαρτια των παιδαριων ενωπιον κυριου μεγαλη σφοδρα οτι ηθετουν την θυσιαν κυριου	17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was exceeding great before the Lord: because they withdrew men from the sacrifice of the Lord.
18 και σαμουηλ ην λειτουργων ενωπιον κυριου παιδαριον περιεζωσμενον εφουδ βαρ	18 But Samuel ministered before the face of the Lord: being a child girded with a linen ephod.
19 και διπλοιδα μικραν εποιησεν αυτω η μητηρ αυτου και ανεφερεν αυτω εξ ημερων εις ημερας εν τω αναβαινειν αυτην μετα του ανδρος αυτης θυσαι την θυσιαν των ημερων	19 And his mother made him a little coat, which she brought to him on the appointed days, when she went up with her husband, to offer the solemn sacrifice.
20 και ευλογησεν ηλι τον ελκανα και την γυναικα αυτου λεγων αποτεισαι σοι κυριος σπερμα εκ της γυναικος ταυτης αντι του χρεους ου εχρησας τω κυριω και απηλθεν ο ανθρωπος εις τον τοπον αυτου	20 And Heli blessed Elcana and his wife: and he said to him: The Lord give thee seed of this woman, for the loan thou hast lent to the Lord. And they went to their own home.
21 και επεσκεψατο κυριος την ανναν και ετεκεν ετι τρεις υιους και δυο θυγατερας και εμεγαλυνθη το παιδαριον σαμουηλ ενωπιον κυριου	21 And the Lord visited Anna, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters: and the child Samuel became great before the Lord.
22 και ηλι πρεσβυτης σφοδρα και ηκουσεν α εποιουν οι υιοι αυτου τοις υιοις ισραηλ	22 Now Heli was very old, and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel: and how they lay with the women that waited at the door of the tabernacle:
23 και ειπεν αυτοις ινα τι ποιειτε κατα το ρημα τουτο ο εγω ακουω εκ στοματος παντος του λαου κυριου	23 And he said to them: Why do ye these kinds of things, which I hear, very wicked things, from all the people?
24 μη τεκνα οτι ουκ αγαθη η ακοη ην εγω ακουω μη ποιειτε ουτως οτι ουκ αγαθαι αι ακοαι ας εγω ακουω του μη δουλευειν λαον θεω	24 Do not so, my sons: for it is no good report that I hear, that you make the people of the Lord to transgress.
25 εαν αμαρτανων αμαρτη ανηρ εις ανδρα και προσευξονται υπερ αυτου προς κυριον και εαν τω κυριω αμαρτη τις προσευξεται υπερ αυτου και ουκ ηκουον της φωνης του πατρος αυτων οτι βουλομενος εβουλετο κυριος διαφθειραι αυτους	25 If one man shall sin against another, God may be appeased in his behalf: but if a man shall sin against the Lord, who shall pray for him? And they hearkened not to the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them.
26 και το παιδαριον σαμουηλ επορευετο και εμεγαλυνετο και αγαθον και μετα κυριου και μετα ανθρωπων	26 But the child Samuel advanced, and grew on, and pleased both the Lord and men.
27 και ηλθεν ανθρωπος θεου προς ηλι και ειπεν ταδε λεγει κυριος αποκαλυφθεις απεκαλυφθην προς οικον πατρος σου οντων αυτων εν γη αιγυπτω δουλων τω οικω φαραω	27 And there came a man of God to Heli, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Did I not plainly appear to thy father's house, when they were in Egypt in the house of Pharao?
28 και εξελεξαμην τον οικον του πατρος σου εκ παντων των σκηπτρων ισραηλ εμοι ιερατευειν και αναβαινειν επι θυσιαστηριον μου και θυμιαν θυμιαμα και αιρειν εφουδ και εδωκα τω οικω του πατρος σου τα παντα του πυρος υιων ισραηλ εις βρωσιν	28 And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my sitar, and burn incense to me, and to wear the ephod before me: and I gave to thy father's house of all the sacrifices of the children of Israel.
29 και ινα τι επεβλεψας επι το θυμιαμα μου και εις την θυσιαν μου αναιδει οφθαλμω και εδοξασας τους υιους σου υπερ εμε ενευλογεισθαι απαρχης πασης θυσιας ισραηλ εμπροσθεν μου	29 Why have you kicked away my victims, and my gifts which I commanded to be offered in the temple: and thou hast rather honoured thy sons than me, to eat the firstfruits of every sacrifice of my people Israel?
30 δια τουτο ταδε ειπεν κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ειπα ο οικος σου και ο οικος του πατρος σου διελευσεται ενωπιον μου εως αιωνος και νυν φησιν κυριος μηδαμως εμοι οτι αλλ' η τους δοξαζοντας με δοξασω και ο εξουθενων με ατιμωθησεται	30 Wherefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father should minister in my sight, for ever. But now saith the Lord: Far be this from me: but whosoever shall glorify me, him will I glorify: but they that despise me, shall be despised.
31 ιδου ημεραι ερχονται και εξολεθρευσω το σπερμα σου και το σπερμα οικου πατρος σου	31 Behold the days come: and I will cut off thy arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
32 και ουκ εσται σου πρεσβυτης εν οικω μου πασας τας ημερας	32 And thou shalt see thy rival in the temple, in all the prosperity of Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.
33 και ανδρα ουκ εξολεθρευσω σοι απο του θυσιαστηριου μου εκλιπειν τους οφθαλμους αυτου και καταρρειν την ψυχην αυτου και πας περισσευων οικου σου πεσουνται εν ρομφαια ανδρων	33 However I will not altogether take away a man of thee from my altar: but that thy eyes may faint and thy soul be spent: and a great part of thy house shall die when they come to man's estate.
34 και τουτο σοι το σημειον ο ηξει επι τους δυο υιους σου τουτους οφνι και φινεες εν ημερα μια αποθανουνται αμφοτεροι	34 And this shall be a sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees: In one day they shall both of them die.
35 και αναστησω εμαυτω ιερεα πιστον ος παντα τα εν τη καρδια μου και τα εν τη ψυχη μου ποιησει και οικοδομησω αυτω οικον πιστον και διελευσεται ενωπιον χριστου μου πασας τας ημερας	35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, who shall do according to my heart, and my soul, and I will build him a faithful house, and he shall walk all days before my anointed.
36 και εσται ο περισσευων εν οικω σου ηξει προσκυνειν αυτω οβολου αργυριου λεγων παραρριψον με επι μιαν των ιερατειων σου φαγειν αρτον	36 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall remain in thy house, shall come that he may be prayed for, and shall offer a piece of silver, and a roll of bread, and shall say: Put me, I beseech thee, to somewhat of the priestly office, that I may eat a morsel of bread.
