Jeremiah 2

KING JAMES BIBLE	LXX
1 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,	1 -
2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.	2 και ειπεν ταδε λεγει κυριος εμνησθην ελεους νεοτητος σου και αγαπης τελειωσεως σου του εξακολουθησαι σε τω αγιω ισραηλ λεγει κυριος
3 Israel was holiness unto the LORD, and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come upon them, saith the LORD.	3 αγιος ισραηλ τω κυριω αρχη γενηματων αυτου παντες οι εσθοντες αυτον πλημμελησουσιν κακα ηξει επ' αυτους φησιν κυριος
4 Hear ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel:	4 ακουσατε λογον κυριου οικος ιακωβ και πασα πατρια οικου ισραηλ
5 Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?	5 ταδε λεγει κυριος τι ευροσαν οι πατερες υμων εν εμοι πλημμελημα οτι απεστησαν μακραν απ' εμου και επορευθησαν οπισω των ματαιων και εματαιωθησαν
6 Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?	6 και ουκ ειπαν που εστιν κυριος ο αναγαγων ημας εκ γης αιγυπτου ο καθοδηγησας ημας εν τη ερημω εν γη απειρω και αβατω εν γη ανυδρω και ακαρπω εν γη εν η ου διωδευσεν εν αυτη ουθεν και ου κατωκησεν εκει υιος ανθρωπου
7 And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.	7 και εισηγαγον υμας εις τον καρμηλον του φαγειν υμας τους καρπους αυτου και τα αγαθα αυτου και εισηλθατε και εμιανατε την γην μου και την κληρονομιαν μου εθεσθε εις βδελυγμα
8 The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.	8 οι ιερεις ουκ ειπαν που εστιν κυριος και οι αντεχομενοι του νομου ουκ ηπισταντο με και οι ποιμενες ησεβουν εις εμε και οι προφηται επροφητευον τη βααλ και οπισω ανωφελους επορευθησαν
9 Wherefore I will yet plead with you, saith the LORD, and with your children's children will I plead.	9 δια τουτο ετι κριθησομαι προς υμας λεγει κυριος και προς τους υιους των υιων υμων κριθησομαι
10 For pass over the isles of Chittim, and see; and send unto Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there be such a thing.	10 διοτι διελθετε εις νησους χεττιιμ και ιδετε και εις κηδαρ αποστειλατε και νοησατε σφοδρα και ιδετε ει γεγονεν τοιαυτα
11 Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.	11 ει αλλαξονται εθνη θεους αυτων και ουτοι ουκ εισιν θεοι ο δε λαος μου ηλλαξατο την δοξαν αυτου εξ ης ουκ ωφεληθησονται
12 Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the LORD.	12 εξεστη ο ουρανος επι τουτω και εφριξεν επι πλειον σφοδρα λεγει κυριος
13 For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.	13 οτι δυο πονηρα εποιησεν ο λαος μου εμε εγκατελιπον πηγην υδατος ζωης και ωρυξαν εαυτοις λακκους συντετριμμενους οι ου δυνησονται υδωρ συνεχειν
14 Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled?	14 μη δουλος εστιν ισραηλ η οικογενης εστιν δια τι εις προνομην εγενετο
15 The young lions roared upon him, and yelled, and they made his land waste: his cities are burned without inhabitant.	15 επ' αυτον ωρυοντο λεοντες και εδωκαν την φωνην αυτων οι εταξαν την γην αυτου εις ερημον και αι πολεις αυτου κατεσκαφησαν παρα το μη κατοικεισθαι
16 Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes have broken the crown of thy head.	16 και υιοι μεμφεως και ταφνας εγνωσαν σε και κατεπαιζον σου
17 Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, in that thou hast forsaken the LORD thy God, when he led thee by the way?	17 ουχι ταυτα εποιησεν σοι το καταλιπειν σε εμε λεγει κυριος ο θεος σου
18 And now what hast thou to do in the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Sihor? or what hast thou to do in the way of Assyria, to drink the waters of the river?	18 και νυν τι σοι και τη οδω αιγυπτου του πιειν υδωρ γηων και τι σοι και τη οδω ασσυριων του πιειν υδωρ ποταμων
19 Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the LORD thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.	19 παιδευσει σε η αποστασια σου και η κακια σου ελεγξει σε και γνωθι και ιδε οτι πικρον σοι το καταλιπειν σε εμε λεγει κυριος ο θεος σου και ουκ ευδοκησα επι σοι λεγει κυριος ο θεος σου
20 For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.	20 οτι απ' αιωνος συνετριψας τον ζυγον σου διεσπασας τους δεσμους σου και ειπας ου δουλευσω αλλα πορευσομαι επι παν βουνον υψηλον και υποκατω παντος ξυλου κατασκιου εκει διαχυθησομαι εν τη πορνεια μου
21 Yet I had planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how then art thou turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine unto me?	21 εγω δε εφυτευσα σε αμπελον καρποφορον πασαν αληθινην πως εστραφης εις πικριαν η αμπελος η αλλοτρια
22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before me, saith the Lord GOD.	22 εαν αποπλυνη εν νιτρω και πληθυνης σεαυτη ποαν κεκηλιδωσαι εν ταις αδικιαις σου εναντιον εμου λεγει κυριος
23 How canst thou say, I am not polluted, I have not gone after Baalim? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: thou art a swift dromedary traversing her ways;	23 πως ερεις ουκ εμιανθην και οπισω της βααλ ουκ επορευθην ιδε τας οδους σου εν τω πολυανδριω και γνωθι τι εποιησας οψε φωνη αυτης ωλολυξεν τας οδους αυτης
24 A wild ass used to the wilderness, that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.	24 επλατυνεν εφ' υδατα ερημου εν επιθυμιαις ψυχης αυτης επνευματοφορειτο παρεδοθη τις επιστρεψει αυτην παντες οι ζητουντες αυτην ου κοπιασουσιν εν τη ταπεινωσει αυτης ευρησουσιν αυτην
25 Withhold thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from thirst: but thou saidst, There is no hope: no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.	25 αποστρεψον τον ποδα σου απο οδου τραχειας και τον φαρυγγα σου απο διψους η δε ειπεν ανδριουμαι οτι ηγαπηκει αλλοτριους και οπισω αυτων επορευετο
26 As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,	26 ως αισχυνη κλεπτου οταν αλω ουτως αισχυνθησονται οι υιοι ισραηλ αυτοι και οι βασιλεις αυτων και οι αρχοντες αυτων και οι ιερεις αυτων και οι προφηται αυτων
27 Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.	27 τω ξυλω ειπαν οτι πατηρ μου ει συ και τω λιθω συ εγεννησας με και εστρεψαν επ' εμε νωτα και ου προσωπα αυτων και εν τω καιρω των κακων αυτων ερουσιν αναστα και σωσον ημας
28 But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.	28 και που εισιν οι θεοι σου ους εποιησας σεαυτω ει αναστησονται και σωσουσιν σε εν καιρω της κακωσεως σου οτι κατ' αριθμον των πολεων σου ησαν θεοι σου ιουδα και κατ' αριθμον διοδων της ιερουσαλημ εθυον τη βααλ
29 Wherefore will ye plead with me? ye all have transgressed against me, saith the LORD.	29 ινα τι λαλειτε προς με παντες υμεις ησεβησατε και παντες υμεις ηνομησατε εις εμε λεγει κυριος
30 In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction: your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.	30 ματην επαταξα τα τεκνα υμων παιδειαν ουκ εδεξασθε μαχαιρα κατεφαγεν τους προφητας υμων ως λεων ολεθρευων και ουκ εφοβηθητε
31 O generation, see ye the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? wherefore say my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?	31 ακουσατε λογον κυριου ταδε λεγει κυριος μη ερημος εγενομην τω ισραηλ η γη κεχερσωμενη δια τι ειπεν ο λαος μου ου κυριευθησομεθα και ουχ ηξομεν προς σε ετι
32 Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.	32 μη επιλησεται νυμφη τον κοσμον αυτης και παρθενος την στηθοδεσμιδα αυτης ο δε λαος μου επελαθετο μου ημερας ων ουκ εστιν αριθμος
33 Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? therefore hast thou also taught the wicked ones thy ways.	33 τι ετι καλον επιτηδευσεις εν ταις οδοις σου του ζητησαι αγαπησιν ουχ ουτως αλλα και συ επονηρευσω του μιαναι τας οδους σου
34 Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.	34 και εν ταις χερσιν σου ευρεθησαν αιματα ψυχων αθωων ουκ εν διορυγμασιν ευρον αυτους αλλ' επι παση δρυι
35 Yet thou sayest, Because I am innocent, surely his anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will plead with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.	35 και ειπας αθωος ειμι αλλα αποστραφητω ο θυμος αυτου απ' εμου ιδου εγω κρινομαι προς σε εν τω λεγειν σε ουχ ημαρτον
36 Why gaddest thou about so much to change thy way? thou also shalt be ashamed of Egypt, as thou wast ashamed of Assyria.	36 τι κατεφρονησας σφοδρα του δευτερωσαι τας οδους σου και απο αιγυπτου καταισχυνθηση καθως κατησχυνθης απο ασσουρ
37 Yea, thou shalt go forth from him, and thine hands upon thine head: for the LORD hath rejected thy confidences, and thou shalt not prosper in them.	37 οτι και εντευθεν εξελευση και αι χειρες σου επι της κεφαλης σου οτι απωσατο κυριος την ελπιδα σου και ουκ ευοδωθηση εν αυτη
