Ezekiel 19

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 As for you, son of man, raise a lamentation over the prince of Israel:	1 και συ λαβε θρηνον επι τον αρχοντα του ισραηλ
2 What a lioness was your mother, a lion of lions! Among young lions she couched to rear her whelps.	2 και ερεις τι η μητηρ σου σκυμνος εν μεσω λεοντων εγενηθη εν μεσω λεοντων επληθυνεν σκυμνους αυτης
3 One whelp she raised up, a young lion he became; He learned to seize prey, men he devoured.	3 και απεπηδησεν εις των σκυμνων αυτης λεων εγενετο και εμαθεν του αρπαζειν αρπαγματα ανθρωπους εφαγεν
4 Then nations raised cries against him, in their pit he was caught; They took him away with hooks to the land of Egypt.	4 και ηκουσαν κατ' αυτου εθνη εν τη διαφθορα αυτων συνελημφθη και ηγαγον αυτον εν κημω εις γην αιγυπτου
5 Then she saw that in vain she had waited, her hope was destroyed. She took another of her whelps, him she made a young lion.	5 και ειδεν οτι απωσται απ' αυτης και απωλετο η υποστασις αυτης και ελαβεν αλλον εκ των σκυμνων αυτης λεοντα εταξεν αυτον
6 He prowled among the lions, a young lion he became; He learned to seize prey, men he devoured;	6 και ανεστρεφετο εν μεσω λεοντων λεων εγενετο και εμαθεν αρπαζειν αρπαγματα ανθρωπους εφαγεν
7 He ravaged their strongholds, their cities he wasted. The land and all in it were appalled at the noise of his roar.	7 και ενεμετο τω θρασει αυτου και τας πολεις αυτων εξηρημωσεν και ηφανισεν γην και το πληρωμα αυτης απο φωνης ωρυματος αυτου
8 Nations laid out against him snares all about him; They spread their net to take him, in their pit he was caught.	8 και εδωκαν επ' αυτον εθνη εκ χωρων κυκλοθεν και εξεπετασαν επ' αυτον δικτυα αυτων εν διαφθορα αυτων συνελημφθη
9 They put him in a cage and took him away to the king of Babylon, So that his voice would not be heard on the mountains of Israel.	9 και εθεντο αυτον εν κημω και εν γαλεαγρα ηλθεν προς βασιλεα βαβυλωνος και εισηγαγεν αυτον εις φυλακην οπως μη ακουσθη η φωνη αυτου επι τα ορη του ισραηλ
10 Your mother was like a vine planted by the water; Fruitful and branchy was she because of the abundant water.	10 η μητηρ σου ως αμπελος ως ανθος εν ροα εν υδατι πεφυτευμενη ο καρπος αυτης και ο βλαστος αυτης εγενετο εξ υδατος πολλου
11 One strong branch she put out as a royal scepter. Stately was her height amid the dense foliage; Notably tall was she with her many clusters.	11 και εγενετο αυτη ραβδος ισχυος επι φυλην ηγουμενων και υψωθη τω μεγεθει αυτης εν μεσω στελεχων και ειδεν το μεγεθος αυτης εν πληθει κληματων αυτης
12 But she was torn up in fury and flung to the ground; The east wind withered her up, her fruit was torn off; Then her strong branch withered up, fire devoured it.	12 και κατεκλασθη εν θυμω επι γην ερριφη και ανεμος ο καυσων εξηρανεν τα εκλεκτα αυτης εξεδικηθη και εξηρανθη η ραβδος ισχυος αυτης πυρ ανηλωσεν αυτην
13 So now she is planted in the desert, in a land dry and parched,	13 και νυν πεφυτευκαν αυτην εν τη ερημω εν γη ανυδρω
14 For fire came out of the branch and devoured her shoots; She is now without a strong branch, a ruler's scepter. This is a lamentation and serves as a lamentation.	14 και εξηλθεν πυρ εκ ραβδου εκλεκτων αυτης και κατεφαγεν αυτην και ουκ ην εν αυτη ραβδος ισχυος φυλη εις παραβολην θρηνου εστιν και εσται εις θρηνον
