Judges 2

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	GREEK BIBLE
1 An angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, "It was I who brought you up from Egypt and led you into the land which I promised on oath to your fathers. I said that I would never break my covenant with you,	1 Και ανεβη αγγελος Κυριου απο Γαλγαλων εις Βοκιμ και ειπε, Σας ανεβιβασα εξ Αιγυπτου και σας εφερα εις την γην την οποιαν ωμοσα προς τους πατερας σας? και ειπα, Δεν θελω αθετησει την προς εσας διαθηκην μου εις τον αιωνα?
2 but that you were not to make a pact with the inhabitants of this land, and you were to pull down their altars. Yet you have not obeyed me. What did you mean by this?	2 και σεις δεν θελετε καμει συνθηκην προς τους κατοικους του τοπου τουτου? τα θυσιαστηρια αυτων θελετε καταστρεψει. Δεν υπηκουσατε ομως εις την φωνην μου? δια τι επραξατε τουτο;
3 For now I tell you, I will not clear them out of your way; they shall oppose you and their gods shall become a snare for you."	3 Δια τουτο και εγω ειπα, Δεν θελω εκδιωξει αυτους απ' εμπροσθεν σας? αλλα θελουσιν εισθαι εναντιοι σας, και οι θεοι αυτων θελουσιν εισθαι παγις εις εσας.
4 When the angel of the LORD had made these threats to all the Israelites, the people wept aloud;	4 Και καθως ελαλησεν ο αγγελος του Κυριου τους λογους τουτους προς παντας τους υιους Ισραηλ, ο λαος υψωσε την φωνην αυτου και εκλαυσε.
5 and so that place came to be called Bochim. They offered sacrifice there to the LORD.	5 Και εκαλεσαν το ονομα του τοπου εκεινου Βοκιμ? και εθυσιασαν εκει εις τον Κυριον.
6 When Joshua dismissed the people, each Israelite went to take possession of his own hereditary land.	6 Και οτε απελυσε τον λαον ο Ιησους, οι υιοι Ισραηλ υπηγον εκαστος εις την κληρονομιαν αυτου, δια να κατακληρονομησωσι την γην.
7 The people served the LORD during the entire lifetime of Joshua, and of those elders who outlived Joshua and who had seen all the great work which the LORD had done for Israel.	7 Και ελατρευσαν ο λαος τον Κυριον πασας τας ημερας του Ιησου και πασας τας ημερας των πρεσβυτερων, οιτινες επεζησαν μετα τον Ιησουν και ειδον παντα τα εργα τα μεγαλα του Κυριου, οσα εκαμεν υπερ του Ισραηλ.
8 Joshua, son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, was a hundred and ten years old when he died;	8 Και ετελευτησεν Ιησους, ο υιος του Ναυη, ο δουλος του Κυριου, ηλικιας εκατον δεκα ετων.
9 and they buried him within the borders of his heritage at Timnath-heres in the mountain region of Ephraim north of Mount Gaash.	9 Και εθαψαν αυτον εις το οριον της κληρονομιας αυτου εν Θαμναθ-αρες, εν τω ορει Εφραιμ, κατα το βορειον μερος του ορους Γαας.
10 But once the rest of that generation were gathered to their fathers, and a later generation arose that did not know the LORD, or what he had done for Israel,	10 Και πασα ετι η γενεα εκεινη προσετεθησαν εις τους πατερας αυτων? και εσηκωθη αλλη γενεα μετ' αυτους, ητις δεν εγνωρισε τον Κυριον ουδε τα εργα, τα οποια εκαμεν υπερ του Ισραηλ.
11 the Israelites offended the LORD by serving the Baals.	11 Και επραξαν οι υιοι Ισραηλ πονηρα ενωπιον του Κυριου και ελατρευσαν τους Βααλειμ?
12 Abandoning the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had led them out of the land of Egypt, they followed the other gods of the various nations around them, and by their worship of these gods provoked the LORD.	12 και εγκατελιπον Κυριον τον Θεον των πατερων αυτων, τον εξαγαγοντα αυτους εκ γης Αιγυπτου, και υπηγον κατοπιν αλλων θεων, εκ των θεων των λαων των περιξ αυτων, και προσεκυνησαν αυτους και παρωργισαν τον Κυριον.
13 Because they had thus abandoned him and served Baal and the Ashtaroth,	13 Και εγκατελιπον τον Κυριον και ελατρευσαν τον Βααλ και τας Ασταρωθ.
14 the anger of the LORD flared up against Israel, and he delivered them over to plunderers who despoiled them. He allowed them to fall into the power of their enemies round about whom they were no longer able to withstand.	14 Και εξηφθη ο θυμος του Κυριου κατα του Ισραηλ, και παρεδωκεν αυτους εις την χειρα των λεηλατιστων, και ελεηλατησαν αυτους? και επωλησεν αυτους εις την χειρα των εχθρων αυτων κυκλω, ωστε δεν ηδυνηθησαν πλεον να σταθωσι κατα προσωπον των εχθρων αυτων.
15 Whatever they undertook, the LORD turned into disaster for them, as in his warning he had sworn he would do, till they were in great distress.	15 Πανταχου οπου εξηρχοντο, η χειρ του Κυριου ητο εναντιον αυτων προς κακον, καθως ελαλησεν ο Κυριος και καθως ωμοσεν ο Κυριος προς αυτους? και ηλθον εις μεγαλην αμηχανιαν.
16 Even when the LORD raised up judges to deliver them from the power of their despoilers,	16 Τοτε ανεστησεν ο Κυριος κριτας, οιτινες εσωσαν αυτους εκ της χειρος των λεηλατουντων αυτους.
17 they did not listen to their judges, but abandoned themselves to the worship of other gods. They were quick to stray from the way their fathers had taken, and did not follow their example of obedience to the commandments of the LORD.	17 Πλην ουδε εις τους κριτας αυτων υπηκουσαν, αλλ' επορνευσαν κατοπιν αλλων θεων και προσεκυνησαν αυτους? εξεκλιναν ταχεως απο της οδου, εις την οποιαν περιεπατησαν οι πατερες αυτων υπακουοντες εις τας εντολας του Κυριου? δεν εκαμον ουτω.
18 Whenever the LORD raised up judges for them, he would be with the judge and save them from the power of their enemies as long as the judge lived; it was thus the LORD took pity on their distressful cries of affliction under their oppressors.	18 Και οτε ανεστησεν ο Κυριος εις αυτους κριτας, τοτε ο Κυριος ητο μετα του κριτου και εσωζεν αυτους εκ της χειρος των εχθρων αυτων καθ' ολας τας ημερας του κριτου? διοτι εσπλαγχνισθη ο Κυριος εις τους στεναγμους αυτων τους εξ αιτιας των καταθλιβοντων αυτους και καταπιεζοντων αυτους.
19 But when the judge died, they would relapse and do worse than their fathers, following other gods in service and worship, relinquishing none of their evil practices or stubborn conduct.	19 Οτε δε απεθνησκεν ο κριτης, επεστρεφον και διεφθειροντο χειροτερα παρα τους πατερας αυτων, υπαγοντες κατοπιν αλλων θεων, δια να λατρευωσιν αυτους και να προσκυνωσιν αυτους? δεν επαυον απο των πραξεων αυτων ουδε απο της οδου αυτων της διεστραμμενης.
20 In his anger toward Israel the LORD said, "Inasmuch as this nation has violated my covenant which I enjoined on their fathers, and has disobeyed me,	20 Και εξηφθη ο θυμος του Κυριου κατα του Ισραηλ, και ειπεν, Επειδη ο λαος ουτος παρεβη την διαθηκην μου, την οποιαν προσεταξα εις τους πατερας αυτων, και δεν υπηκουσεν εις την φωνην μου?
21 I for my part will not clear away for them any more of the nations which Joshua left when he died."	21 και εγω δεν θελω εκδιωξει πλεον απ' εμπροσθεν αυτων ουδεν εκ των εθνων, τα οποια αφηκεν ο Ιησους οτε ετελευτησε,
22 Through these nations the Israelites were to be made to prove whether or not they would keep to the way of the LORD and continue in it as their fathers had done;	22 δια να δοκιμασω τον Ισραηλ δια μεσου αυτων, εαν φυλαττωσι την οδον του Κυριου, περιπατουντες εν αυτη, καθως εφυλαξαν αυτην οι πατερες αυτων, η ουχι.
23 therefore the LORD allowed them to remain instead of expelling them immediately, or delivering them into the power of Israel.	23 Και αφηκε Κυριος τα εθνη ταυτα, χωρις να εκδιωξη ταχεως αυτα? ουδε παρεδωκεν αυτα εις την χειρα του Ιησου.
