Isaiah 50

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 Thus says the LORD: Where is the bill of divorce with which I dismissed your mother? Or to which of my creditors have I sold you? It was for your sins that you were sold, for your crimes that your mother was dismissed.	1 ουτως λεγει κυριος ποιον το βιβλιον του αποστασιου της μητρος υμων ω εξαπεστειλα αυτην η τινι υποχρεω πεπρακα υμας ιδου ταις αμαρτιαις υμων επραθητε και ταις ανομιαις υμων εξαπεστειλα την μητερα υμων
2 Why was no one there when I came? Why did no one answer when I called? Is my hand too short to ransom? Have I not the strength to deliver? Lo, with my rebuke I dry up the sea, I turn rivers into a desert; Their fish rot for lack of water, and die of thirst.	2 τι οτι ηλθον και ουκ ην ανθρωπος εκαλεσα και ουκ ην ο υπακουων μη ουκ ισχυει η χειρ μου του ρυσασθαι η ουκ ισχυω του εξελεσθαι ιδου τη απειλη μου εξερημωσω την θαλασσαν και θησω ποταμους ερημους και ξηρανθησονται οι ιχθυες αυτων απο του μη ειναι υδωρ και αποθανουνται εν διψει
3 I clothe the heavens in mourning, and make sackcloth their vesture.	3 και ενδυσω τον ουρανον σκοτος και θησω ως σακκον το περιβολαιον αυτου
4 The Lord GOD has given me a well-trained tongue, That I might know how to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them. Morning after morning he opens my ear that I may hear;	4 κυριος διδωσιν μοι γλωσσαν παιδειας του γνωναι εν καιρω ηνικα δει ειπειν λογον εθηκεν μοι πρωι προσεθηκεν μοι ωτιον ακουειν
5 And I have not rebelled, have not turned back.	5 και η παιδεια κυριου ανοιγει μου τα ωτα εγω δε ουκ απειθω ουδε αντιλεγω
6 I gave my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who plucked my beard; My face I did not shield from buffets and spitting.	6 τον νωτον μου δεδωκα εις μαστιγας τας δε σιαγονας μου εις ραπισματα το δε προσωπον μου ουκ απεστρεψα απο αισχυνης εμπτυσματων
7 The Lord GOD is my help, therefore I am not disgraced; I have set my face like flint, knowing that I shall not be put to shame.	7 και κυριος βοηθος μου εγενηθη δια τουτο ουκ ενετραπην αλλα εθηκα το προσωπον μου ως στερεαν πετραν και εγνων οτι ου μη αισχυνθω
8 He is near who upholds my right; if anyone wishes to oppose me, let us appear together. Who disputes my right? Let him confront me.	8 οτι εγγιζει ο δικαιωσας με τις ο κρινομενος μοι αντιστητω μοι αμα και τις ο κρινομενος μοι εγγισατω μοι
9 See, the Lord GOD is my help; who will prove me wrong? Lo, they will all wear out like cloth, the moth will eat them up.	9 ιδου κυριος βοηθει μοι τις κακωσει με ιδου παντες υμεις ως ιματιον παλαιωθησεσθε και ως σης καταφαγεται υμας
10 Who among you fears the LORD, heeds his servant's voice, And walks in darkness without any light, Trusting in the name of the LORD and relying on his God?	10 τις εν υμιν ο φοβουμενος τον κυριον ακουσατω της φωνης του παιδος αυτου οι πορευομενοι εν σκοτει ουκ εστιν αυτοις φως πεποιθατε επι τω ονοματι κυριου και αντιστηρισασθε επι τω θεω
11 All of you kindle flames and carry about you fiery darts; Walk by the light of your own fire and by the flares you have burnt! This is your fate from my hand: you shall lie down in a place of pain.	11 ιδου παντες υμεις πυρ καιετε και κατισχυετε φλογα πορευεσθε τω φωτι του πυρος υμων και τη φλογι η εξεκαυσατε δι' εμε εγενετο ταυτα υμιν εν λυπη κοιμηθησεσθε
