Isaiah 42

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 Here is my servant whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom my soul delights. I have sent my spiritupon him, he will bring fair judgement to the nations.	1 ιακωβ ο παις μου αντιλημψομαι αυτου ισραηλ ο εκλεκτος μου προσεδεξατο αυτον η ψυχη μου εδωκα το πνευμα μου επ' αυτον κρισιν τοις εθνεσιν εξοισει
2 He does not cry out or raise his voice, his voice is not heard in the street;	2 ου κεκραξεται ουδε ανησει ουδε ακουσθησεται εξω η φωνη αυτου
3 he does not break the crushed reed or snuff the faltering wick. Faithful y he presents fair judgement;	3 καλαμον τεθλασμενον ου συντριψει και λινον καπνιζομενον ου σβεσει αλλα εις αληθειαν εξοισει κρισιν
4 he wil not grow faint, he wil not be crushed until he has established fair judgement on earth, and thecoasts and islands are waiting for his instruction.	4 αναλαμψει και ου θραυσθησεται εως αν θη επι της γης κρισιν και επι τω ονοματι αυτου εθνη ελπιουσιν
5 Thus says God, Yahweh, who created the heavens and spread them out, who hammered into shapethe earth and what comes from it, who gave breath to the people on it, and spirit to those who walk on it:	5 ουτως λεγει κυριος ο θεος ο ποιησας τον ουρανον και πηξας αυτον ο στερεωσας την γην και τα εν αυτη και διδους πνοην τω λαω τω επ' αυτης και πνευμα τοις πατουσιν αυτην
6 I, Yahweh, have called you in saving justice, I have grasped you by the hand and shaped you; I havemade you a covenant of the people and light to the nations,	6 εγω κυριος ο θεος εκαλεσα σε εν δικαιοσυνη και κρατησω της χειρος σου και ενισχυσω σε και εδωκα σε εις διαθηκην γενους εις φως εθνων
7 to open the eyes of the blind, to free captives from prison, and those who live in darkness from thedungeon.	7 ανοιξαι οφθαλμους τυφλων εξαγαγειν εκ δεσμων δεδεμενους και εξ οικου φυλακης καθημενους εν σκοτει
8 I am Yahweh, that is my name! I shal not yield my glory to another, nor my honour to idols.	8 εγω κυριος ο θεος τουτο μου εστιν το ονομα την δοξαν μου ετερω ου δωσω ουδε τας αρετας μου τοις γλυπτοις
9 See how the former predictions have come true. Fresh things I now reveal; before they appear I tel youof them.	9 τα απ' αρχης ιδου ηκασιν και καινα α εγω αναγγελω και προ του ανατειλαι εδηλωθη υμιν
10 Sing a new song to Yahweh! Let his praise be sung from remotest parts of the earth by those who sailthe sea and by everything in it, by the coasts and islands and those who inhabit them.	10 υμνησατε τω κυριω υμνον καινον η αρχη αυτου δοξαζετε το ονομα αυτου απ' ακρου της γης οι καταβαινοντες εις την θαλασσαν και πλεοντες αυτην αι νησοι και οι κατοικουντες αυτας
11 Let the desert and its cities raise their voices, the encampments where Kedar lives. Let the inhabitantsof the Rock cry aloud for joy and shout from the mountain tops.	11 ευφρανθητι ερημος και αι κωμαι αυτης επαυλεις και οι κατοικουντες κηδαρ ευφρανθησονται οι κατοικουντες πετραν απ' ακρων των ορεων βοησουσιν
12 Let them give glory to Yahweh and, in the coasts and islands, let them voice his praise.	12 δωσουσιν τω θεω δοξαν τας αρετας αυτου εν ταις νησοις αναγγελουσιν
13 Yahweh advances like a hero, like a warrior he rouses his fire. He shouts, he raises the war cry, heshows his might against his foes.	13 κυριος ο θεος των δυναμεων εξελευσεται και συντριψει πολεμον επεγερει ζηλον και βοησεται επι τους εχθρους αυτου μετα ισχυος
14 'From long ago I have been silent, I have kept quiet, held myself in check, groaning like a woman inlabour, panting and gasping for air.	14 εσιωπησα μη και αει σιωπησομαι και ανεξομαι εκαρτερησα ως η τικτουσα εκστησω και ξηρανω αμα
15 I shal ravage mountain and hil , shal wither al their vegetation; I shal turn the torrents into firmground and dry up the marshes.	15 και θησω ποταμους εις νησους και ελη ξηρανω
16 I shal lead the blind by a road they do not know, by paths they do not know I shal conduct them. Ishall turn the darkness into light before them and the quagmires into solid ground. This I shal do -- without fail.'	16 και αξω τυφλους εν οδω η ουκ εγνωσαν και τριβους ους ουκ ηδεισαν πατησαι ποιησω αυτους ποιησω αυτοις το σκοτος εις φως και τα σκολια εις ευθειαν ταυτα τα ρηματα ποιησω και ουκ εγκαταλειψω αυτους
17 Those who trust in idols will recoil, they will blush for shame, who say to metal images, 'You are ourgods.'	17 αυτοι δε απεστραφησαν εις τα οπισω αισχυνθητε αισχυνην οι πεποιθοτες επι τοις γλυπτοις οι λεγοντες τοις χωνευτοις υμεις εστε θεοι ημων
18 Listen, you deaf! Look and see, you blind!	18 οι κωφοι ακουσατε και οι τυφλοι αναβλεψατε ιδειν
19 Who so blind as my servant, so deaf as the messenger I send? (Who so blind as the friend I havetaken to myself, so deaf as Yahweh's servant?)	19 και τις τυφλος αλλ' η οι παιδες μου και κωφοι αλλ' η οι κυριευοντες αυτων και ετυφλωθησαν οι δουλοι του θεου
20 You have seen many things but not observed them; your ears are open but you do not hear.	20 ειδετε πλεονακις και ουκ εφυλαξασθε ηνοιγμενα τα ωτα και ουκ ηκουσατε
21 Yahweh wished, because of his saving justice, to make the Law great and glorious.	21 κυριος ο θεος εβουλετο ινα δικαιωθη και μεγαλυνη αινεσιν και ειδον
22 Yet here is a people pil aged and plundered, all of them shut up in caves, imprisoned in dungeons.They have been pil aged, with no one to rescue them, plundered, with no one to say, 'Give it back!'	22 και εγενετο ο λαος πεπρονομευμενος και διηρπασμενος η γαρ παγις εν τοις ταμιειοις πανταχου και εν οικοις αμα οπου εκρυψαν αυτους εγενοντο εις προνομην και ουκ ην ο εξαιρουμενος αρπαγμα και ουκ ην ο λεγων αποδος
23 Which of you wil listen to this, who pay attention and listen in future?	23 τις εν υμιν ος ενωτιειται ταυτα εισακουσεται εις τα επερχομενα
24 Who surrendered Jacob to the plunderer and Israel to the pil agers? Was it not Yahweh, againstwhom we had sinned, in whose ways they would not walk and whose Law they would not obey?	24 τις εδωκεν εις διαρπαγην ιακωβ και ισραηλ τοις προνομευουσιν αυτον ουχι ο θεος ω ημαρτοσαν αυτω και ουκ εβουλοντο εν ταις οδοις αυτου πορευεσθαι ουδε ακουειν του νομου αυτου
25 On him he poured out his blazing anger and the fury of war; it enveloped him in flames and yet he didnot understand; it burned him up, but he did not learn a lesson.	25 και επηγαγεν επ' αυτους οργην θυμου αυτου και κατισχυσεν αυτους πολεμος και οι συμφλεγοντες αυτους κυκλω και ουκ εγνωσαν εκαστος αυτων ουδε εθεντο επι ψυχην
