ΙΕΡΕΜΙΑΣ - Geremia - Jeremiah 19

LXX	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 τοτε ειπεν κυριος προς με βαδισον και κτησαι βικον πεπλασμενον οστρακινον και αξεις απο των πρεσβυτερων του λαου και απο των πρεσβυτερων των ιερεων	1 Thus says the Lord: “Go, and take a potter’s earthen bottle from the elders of the people and from the elders of the priests.
2 και εξελευση εις το πολυανδριον υιων των τεκνων αυτων ο εστιν επι των προθυρων πυλης της χαρσιθ και αναγνωθι εκει παντας τους λογους ους αν λαλησω προς σε	2 And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is near the entrance to the earthen gate, and there you shall proclaim the words that I will speak to you.
3 και ερεις αυτοις ακουσατε τον λογον κυριου βασιλεις ιουδα και ανδρες ιουδα και οι κατοικουντες ιερουσαλημ και οι εισπορευομενοι εν ταις πυλαις ταυταις ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ιδου εγω επαγω επι τον τοπον τουτον κακα ωστε παντος ακουοντος αυτα ηχησει αμφοτερα τα ωτα αυτου	3 And you shall say: Listen to the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead an affliction over this place, so much so that it will ring in the ears of all who hear about it.
4 ανθ' ων εγκατελιπον με και απηλλοτριωσαν τον τοπον τουτον και εθυμιασαν εν αυτω θεοις αλλοτριοις οις ουκ ηδεισαν αυτοι και οι πατερες αυτων και οι βασιλεις ιουδα επλησαν τον τοπον τουτον αιματων αθωων	4 For they have abandoned me, and they have made this place foreign, and they have offered libations in it to foreign gods, whom neither they, nor their fathers, nor the kings of Judah have known. And they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
5 και ωκοδομησαν υψηλα τη βααλ του κατακαιειν τους υιους αυτων εν πυρι α ουκ ενετειλαμην ουδε ελαλησα ουδε διενοηθην εν τη καρδια μου	5 And they have built the exalted places of Baal, in order to burn their children with fire as a holocaust to Baal, something that I did not instruct or speak of, nor did it enter into my heart.
6 δια τουτο ιδου ημεραι ερχονται λεγει κυριος και ου κληθησεται τω τοπω τουτω ετι διαπτωσις και πολυανδριον υιου εννομ αλλ' η πολυανδριον της σφαγης	6 Because of this, behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when this place will no longer be called Topheth, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7 και σφαξω την βουλην ιουδα και την βουλην ιερουσαλημ εν τω τοπω τουτω και καταβαλω αυτους εν μαχαιρα εναντιον των εχθρων αυτων και εν χερσιν των ζητουντων τας ψυχας αυτων και δωσω τους νεκρους αυτων εις βρωσιν τοις πετεινοις του ουρανου και τοις θηριοις της γης	7 And I will scatter the counsel of Judah and of Jerusalem in this place. And I will overthrow them with the sword, in the sight of their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their lives. And I will give their carcasses to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the land as food.
8 και ταξω την πολιν ταυτην εις αφανισμον και εις συριγμον πας ο παραπορευομενος επ' αυτης σκυθρωπασει και συριει υπερ πασης της πληγης αυτης	8 And I will set this city amid stupor and hissing. Everyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and they will hiss over all its wounds.
9 και εδονται τας σαρκας των υιων αυτων και τας σαρκας των θυγατερων αυτων και εκαστος τας σαρκας του πλησιον αυτου εδονται εν τη περιοχη και εν τη πολιορκια η πολιορκησουσιν αυτους οι εχθροι αυτων	9 And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons and with the flesh of their daughters. And each one of them will eat the flesh of his friend during the blockade and the embargo by which their enemies, and those who seek their lives, will enclose them.
10 και συντριψεις τον βικον κατ' οφθαλμους των ανδρων των εκπορευομενων μετα σου	10 And you shall crush the bottle in the sight of the men who will go with you.
11 και ερεις ταδε λεγει κυριος ουτως συντριψω τον λαον τουτον και την πολιν ταυτην καθως συντριβεται αγγος οστρακινον ο ου δυνησεται ιαθηναι ετι	11 And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: In the same way, I will crush this people and this city, just as the potter’s vessel was crushed and cannot be made whole again. And they will be buried at Topheth, because there will be no other place for burial.
12 ουτως ποιησω λεγει κυριος τω τοπω τουτω και τοις κατοικουσιν εν αυτω του δοθηναι την πολιν ταυτην ως την διαπιπτουσαν	12 So will I do to this place and to its inhabitants, says the Lord. And I will make this city to be like Topheth.
13 και οι οικοι ιερουσαλημ και οι οικοι βασιλεων ιουδα εσονται καθως ο τοπος ο διαπιπτων των ακαθαρσιων εν πασαις ταις οικιαις εν αις εθυμιασαν επι των δωματων αυτων παση τη στρατια του ουρανου και εσπεισαν σπονδας θεοις αλλοτριοις	13 And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be unclean, just like the place of Topheth: all the houses on whose roofs they sacrificed to all the armies of heaven and poured out libations to strange gods.”
14 και ηλθεν ιερεμιας απο της διαπτωσεως ου απεστειλεν αυτον κυριος εκει του προφητευσαι και εστη εν τη αυλη οικου κυριου και ειπε προς παντα τον λαον	14 Then Jeremiah arrived from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the atrium of the house of the Lord, and he said to all the people:
15 ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω επαγω επι την πολιν ταυτην και επι πασας τας πολεις αυτης και επι τας κωμας αυτης απαντα τα κακα α ελαλησα επ' αυτην οτι εσκληρυναν τον τραχηλον αυτων του μη εισακουειν των λογων μου	15 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead over this community, and over all its cities, all the evils that I have spoken against it. For they have hardened their necks, so that they would not heed my words.”
