Deuteronomy 26

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 'When you have entered the country which Yahweh your God is giving you as heritage, when youhave taken possession of it and are living in it,	1 και εσται εαν εισελθης εις την γην ην κυριος ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι εν κληρω και κατακληρονομησης αυτην και κατοικησης επ' αυτης
2 you must set aside the first-fruits of al the produce of the soil raised by you in your country, given youby Yahweh your God. You must put these in a basket and go to the place where Yahweh your God chooses togive his name a home.	2 και λημψη απο της απαρχης των καρπων της γης σου ης κυριος ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι και εμβαλεις εις καρταλλον και πορευση εις τον τοπον ον αν εκλεξηται κυριος ο θεος σου επικληθηναι το ονομα αυτου εκει
3 You wil go to the priest then in office and say to him, "Today I declare to Yahweh my God that I havereached the country which Yahweh swore to our ancestors that he would give us."	3 και ελευση προς τον ιερεα ος εαν η εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και ερεις προς αυτον αναγγελλω σημερον κυριω τω θεω μου οτι εισεληλυθα εις την γην ην ωμοσεν κυριος τοις πατρασιν ημων δουναι ημιν
4 'The priest will then take the basket from your hand and lay it before the altar of Yahweh your God.	4 και λημψεται ο ιερευς τον καρταλλον εκ των χειρων σου και θησει αυτον απεναντι του θυσιαστηριου κυριου του θεου σου
5 In the presence of Yahweh your God, you will then pronounce these words: "My father was awandering Aramaean, who went down to Egypt with a smal group of men, and stayed there, until he therebecame a great, powerful and numerous nation.	5 και αποκριθηση και ερεις εναντι κυριου του θεου σου συριαν απεβαλεν ο πατηρ μου και κατεβη εις αιγυπτον και παρωκησεν εκει εν αριθμω βραχει και εγενετο εκει εις εθνος μεγα και πληθος πολυ και μεγα
6 The Egyptians ill-treated us, they oppressed us and inflicted harsh slavery on us.	6 και εκακωσαν ημας οι αιγυπτιοι και εταπεινωσαν ημας και επεθηκαν ημιν εργα σκληρα
7 But we called on Yahweh, God of our ancestors. Yahweh heard our voice and saw our misery, our toiland our oppression;	7 και ανεβοησαμεν προς κυριον τον θεον των πατερων ημων και εισηκουσεν κυριος της φωνης ημων και ειδεν την ταπεινωσιν ημων και τον μοχθον ημων και τον θλιμμον ημων
8 and Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with mighty hand and outstretched arm, with great terror, andwith signs and wonders.	8 και εξηγαγεν ημας κυριος εξ αιγυπτου αυτος εν ισχυι μεγαλη και εν χειρι κραταια και εν βραχιονι αυτου τω υψηλω και εν οραμασιν μεγαλοις και εν σημειοις και εν τερασιν
9 He brought us here and has given us this country, a country flowing with milk and honey.	9 και εισηγαγεν ημας εις τον τοπον τουτον και εδωκεν ημιν την γην ταυτην γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι
10 Hence, I now bring the first-fruits of the soil that you, Yahweh, have given me." 'You wil then laythem before Yahweh your God, and prostrate yourself in the presence of Yahweh your God.	10 και νυν ιδου ενηνοχα την απαρχην των γενηματων της γης ης εδωκας μοι κυριε γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι και αφησεις αυτα απεναντι κυριου του θεου σου και προσκυνησεις εκει εναντι κυριου του θεου σου
11 You must then rejoice in al the good things that Yahweh your God has bestowed on you and yourfamily-you, the Levite and the foreigner living with you.	11 και ευφρανθηση εν πασιν τοις αγαθοις οις εδωκεν σοι κυριος ο θεος σου και τη οικια σου συ και ο λευιτης και ο προσηλυτος ο εν σοι
12 'In the third year, the tithing year, when you have finished taking the tithe of your whole income andhave given it to the Levite, the foreigner, the orphan and the widow so that, in your towns, they may eat to theirheart's content,	12 εαν δε συντελεσης αποδεκατωσαι παν το επιδεκατον των γενηματων της γης σου εν τω ετει τω τριτω το δευτερον επιδεκατον δωσεις τω λευιτη και τω προσηλυτω και τω ορφανω και τη χηρα και φαγονται εν ταις πολεσιν σου και εμπλησθησονται
13 in the presence of Yahweh your God, you must say: "I have cleared my house of what wasconsecrated. Yes, I have given it to the Levite, the foreigner, the orphan and the widow, in accordance with althe commandments you have imposed on me, neither going beyond your commandments nor neglecting them.	13 και ερεις εναντιον κυριου του θεου σου εξεκαθαρα τα αγια εκ της οικιας μου και εδωκα αυτα τω λευιτη και τω προσηλυτω και τω ορφανω και τη χηρα κατα πασας τας εντολας ας ενετειλω μοι ου παρηλθον την εντολην σου και ουκ επελαθομην
14 When in mourning, I have not eaten any of it; when unclean, I have taken none of it away; I havegiven none of it for the dead. I have obeyed the voice of Yahweh my God and I have behaved in every way asyou have commanded me.	14 και ουκ εφαγον εν οδυνη μου απ' αυτων ουκ εκαρπωσα απ' αυτων εις ακαθαρτον ουκ εδωκα απ' αυτων τω τεθνηκοτι υπηκουσα της φωνης κυριου του θεου μου εποιησα καθα ενετειλω μοι
15 Look down from your holy dwel ing, from heaven, and bless your people Israel and the country which you have given us, as you swore to our ancestors, a country flowing with milk and honey." '	15 κατιδε εκ του οικου του αγιου σου εκ του ουρανου και ευλογησον τον λαον σου τον ισραηλ και την γην ην εδωκας αυτοις καθα ωμοσας τοις πατρασιν ημων δουναι ημιν γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι
16 'Yahweh your God commands you today to observe these laws and customs; you must keep andobserve them with al your heart and with al your soul.	16 εν τη ημερα ταυτη κυριος ο θεος σου ενετειλατο σοι ποιησαι παντα τα δικαιωματα ταυτα και τα κριματα και φυλαξεσθε και ποιησετε αυτα εξ ολης της καρδιας υμων και εξ ολης της ψυχης υμων
17 'Today you have obtained this declaration from Yahweh: that he wil be your God, but only if youfol ow his ways, keep his statutes, his commandments, his customs, and listen to his voice.	17 τον θεον ειλου σημερον ειναι σου θεον και πορευεσθαι εν ταις οδοις αυτου και φυλασσεσθαι τα δικαιωματα και τα κριματα αυτου και υπακουειν της φωνης αυτου
18 And today Yahweh has obtained this declaration from you: that you will be his own people -- as hehas said -- but only if you keep all his commandments;	18 και κυριος ειλατο σε σημερον γενεσθαι σε αυτω λαον περιουσιον καθαπερ ειπεν σοι φυλασσειν πασας τας εντολας αυτου
19 then for praise and renown and honour, he wil raise you higher than every other nation he hasmade, and you wil be a people consecrated to Yahweh, as he has promised.'	19 και ειναι σε υπερανω παντων των εθνων ως εποιησεν σε ονομαστον και καυχημα και δοξαστον ειναι σε λαον αγιον κυριω τω θεω σου καθως ελαλησεν
