Isaiah 66

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 Thus says the Lord: Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What is this house that you would build for me? And what is this place of my rest?	1 ουτως λεγει κυριος ο ουρανος μοι θρονος η δε γη υποποδιον των ποδων μου ποιον οικον οικοδομησετε μοι η ποιος τοπος της καταπαυσεως μου
2 My hand has made all these things, and all these things have been made, says the Lord. But upon whom will I look with favor, except upon a poor little one, who is contrite in spirit, and who trembles at my words?	2 παντα γαρ ταυτα εποιησεν η χειρ μου και εστιν εμα παντα ταυτα λεγει κυριος και επι τινα επιβλεψω αλλ' η επι τον ταπεινον και ησυχιον και τρεμοντα τους λογους μου
3 Whoever immolates an ox, it is as if he slaughters a man. Whoever sacrifices a sheep, it is as if he is smashing the head of a dog. Whoever offers an oblation, it is as if he is offering swine’s blood. Whoever makes remembrance with incense, it is as if he is blessing an idol. All these things, they have chosen according to their own ways, and their soul has taken delight in their own abominations.	3 ο δε ανομος ο θυων μοι μοσχον ως ο αποκτεννων κυνα ο δε αναφερων σεμιδαλιν ως αιμα υειον ο διδους λιβανον εις μνημοσυνον ως βλασφημος και ουτοι εξελεξαντο τας οδους αυτων και τα βδελυγματα αυτων α η ψυχη αυτων ηθελησεν
4 Therefore, I also will choose their illusions, and I will lead over them the things that they feared. For I called, and there was no one who would respond. I have spoken, and they have not listened. And they have done evil in my eyes; and what I did not will, they have chosen.	4 καγω εκλεξομαι τα εμπαιγματα αυτων και τας αμαρτιας ανταποδωσω αυτοις οτι εκαλεσα αυτους και ουχ υπηκουσαν μου ελαλησα και ουκ ηκουσαν και εποιησαν το πονηρον εναντιον μου και α ουκ εβουλομην εξελεξαντο
5 Listen to the word of the Lord, you who tremble at his word. Your brothers, who hate you and who cast you out because of my name, have said: “Let the Lord be glorified, and we will see by your rejoicing.” But they themselves will be confounded.	5 ακουσατε το ρημα κυριου οι τρεμοντες τον λογον αυτου ειπατε αδελφοι ημων τοις μισουσιν ημας και βδελυσσομενοις ινα το ονομα κυριου δοξασθη και οφθη εν τη ευφροσυνη αυτων κακεινοι αισχυνθησονται
6 A voice of the people from the city! A voice from the temple! The voice of the Lord repaying retribution to his enemies!	6 φωνη κραυγης εκ πολεως φωνη εκ ναου φωνη κυριου ανταποδιδοντος ανταποδοσιν τοις αντικειμενοις
7 Before she was in labor, she gave birth. Before her time arrived for delivery, she gave birth to a male child.	7 πριν η την ωδινουσαν τεκειν πριν ελθειν τον πονον των ωδινων εξεφυγεν και ετεκεν αρσεν
8 Who has ever heard of such a thing? And who has seen anything like this? Will the earth give birth in one day? Or will a nation be born all at once? For Zion has been in labor, and she has given birth to her sons.	8 τις ηκουσεν τοιουτο και τις εωρακεν ουτως η ωδινεν γη εν μια ημερα η και ετεχθη εθνος εις απαξ οτι ωδινεν και ετεκεν σιων τα παιδια αυτης
9 Will I, who causes others to give birth, not also give birth myself, says the Lord? Will I, who bestows generation upon others, be barren myself, says the Lord your God?	9 εγω δε εδωκα την προσδοκιαν ταυτην και ουκ εμνησθης μου ειπεν κυριος ουκ ιδου εγω γεννωσαν και στειραν εποιησα ειπεν ο θεος
10 Rejoice with Jerusalem, and exult in her, all you who love her! Rejoice greatly with her, all you who mourn over her!	10 ευφρανθητι ιερουσαλημ και πανηγυρισατε εν αυτη παντες οι αγαπωντες αυτην χαρητε χαρα παντες οσοι πενθειτε επ' αυτης
11 So may you nurse and be filled, from the breasts of her consolations. So may you receive milk and overflow with delights, from every portion of her glory.	11 ινα θηλασητε και εμπλησθητε απο μαστου παρακλησεως αυτης ινα εκθηλασαντες τρυφησητε απο εισοδου δοξης αυτης
12 For thus says the Lord: Behold, I will turn a river of peace toward her, with an inundating torrent: the glory of the Gentiles, from which you will nurse. You will be carried at the breasts, and they will caress you upon the knees.	12 οτι ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω εκκλινω εις αυτους ως ποταμος ειρηνης και ως χειμαρρους επικλυζων δοξαν εθνων τα παιδια αυτων επ' ωμων αρθησονται και επι γονατων παρακληθησονται
13 In the manner of one whom a mother caresses, so will I console you. And you will be consoled in Jerusalem.	13 ως ει τινα μητηρ παρακαλεσει ουτως και εγω παρακαλεσω υμας και εν ιερουσαλημ παρακληθησεσθε
14 You will see, and your heart will be glad, and your bones will flourish like a plant, and the hand of the Lord will be known to his servants, and he will be angry with his enemies.	14 και οψεσθε και χαρησεται υμων η καρδια και τα οστα υμων ως βοτανη ανατελει και γνωσθησεται η χειρ κυριου τοις σεβομενοις αυτον και απειλησει τοις απειθουσιν
15 For behold, the Lord will arrive with fire, and his four-horse chariots will be like a whirlwind: to render his wrath with indignation, and his rebuke with flames of fire.	15 ιδου γαρ κυριος ως πυρ ηξει και ως καταιγις τα αρματα αυτου αποδουναι εν θυμω εκδικησιν και αποσκορακισμον εν φλογι πυρος
16 For the Lord will divide with fire, and with his sword among all flesh, and those slain by the Lord will be many.	16 εν γαρ τω πυρι κυριου κριθησεται πασα η γη και εν τη ρομφαια αυτου πασα σαρξ πολλοι τραυματιαι εσονται υπο κυριου
17 Those who were sanctified, who thought themselves to be clean in the gardens behind the inner gate, who were eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse: they will be consumed all at once, says the Lord.	17 οι αγνιζομενοι και καθαριζομενοι εις τους κηπους και εν τοις προθυροις εσθοντες κρεας υειον και τα βδελυγματα και τον νυν επι το αυτο αναλωθησονται ειπεν κυριος
18 But I know their works and their thoughts. I am arriving, so that I may gather them together with all nations and languages. And they will approach, and they will see my glory.	18 καγω τα εργα αυτων και τον λογισμον αυτων επισταμαι ερχομαι συναγαγειν παντα τα εθνη και τας γλωσσας και ηξουσιν και οψονται την δοξαν μου
19 And I will set a sign among them. And I will send some of those who will have been saved to the Gentiles in the sea, to Africa, and to those who draw the bow in Lydia, to Italy and Greece, to islands far away, to those who have not heard of me, and to those who have not seen my glory. And they will announce my glory to the Gentiles.	19 και καταλειψω επ' αυτων σημεια και εξαποστελω εξ αυτων σεσωσμενους εις τα εθνη εις θαρσις και φουδ και λουδ και μοσοχ και θοβελ και εις την ελλαδα και εις τας νησους τας πορρω οι ουκ ακηκοασιν μου το ονομα ουδε εωρακασιν την δοξαν μου και αναγγελουσιν μου την δοξαν εν τοις εθνεσιν
20 And they will lead all of your brothers from all of the Gentiles as a gift to the Lord, on horses, and in four-horse chariots, and on stretchers, and on mules, and in coaches, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the Lord, in the same manner that the sons of Israel would carry an offering in a pure vessel into the house of the Lord.	20 και αξουσιν τους αδελφους υμων εκ παντων των εθνων δωρον κυριω μεθ' ιππων και αρματων εν λαμπηναις ημιονων μετα σκιαδιων εις την αγιαν πολιν ιερουσαλημ ειπεν κυριος ως αν ενεγκαισαν οι υιοι ισραηλ εμοι τας θυσιας αυτων μετα ψαλμων εις τον οικον κυριου
21 And I will take from them to be priests and Levites, says the Lord.	21 και απ' αυτων λημψομαι εμοι ιερεις και λευιτας ειπεν κυριος
22 For in like manner as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will cause to stand before me, says the Lord, so will your offspring and your name stand.	22 ον τροπον γαρ ο ουρανος καινος και η γη καινη α εγω ποιω μενει ενωπιον μου λεγει κυριος ουτως στησεται το σπερμα υμων και το ονομα υμων
23 And there will be month after month, and Sabbath after Sabbath. And all flesh will approach, so as to adore before my face, says the Lord.	23 και εσται μηνα εκ μηνος και σαββατον εκ σαββατου ηξει πασα σαρξ ενωπιον μου προσκυνησαι εν ιερουσαλημ ειπεν κυριος
24 And they will go out, and they will view the carcasses of the men who have transgressed against me. Their worm will not die, and their fire will not be extinguished. And they will be a sight to all flesh even unto revulsion.	24 και εξελευσονται και οψονται τα κωλα των ανθρωπων των παραβεβηκοτων εν εμοι ο γαρ σκωληξ αυτων ου τελευτησει και το πυρ αυτων ου σβεσθησεται και εσονται εις ορασιν παση σαρκι .
