Deuteronomy 32

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 Listen, heavens, while I speak; hear, earth, the words that I shal say!	1 προσεχε ουρανε και λαλησω και ακουετω γη ρηματα εκ στοματος μου
2 May my teaching fal like the rain, may my word drop down like the dew, like showers on the grass,like light rain on the turf!	2 προσδοκασθω ως υετος το αποφθεγμα μου και καταβητω ως δροσος τα ρηματα μου ωσει ομβρος επ' αγρωστιν και ωσει νιφετος επι χορτον
3 For I shal proclaim the name of Yahweh. Oh, tell the greatness of our God!	3 οτι ονομα κυριου εκαλεσα δοτε μεγαλωσυνην τω θεω ημων
4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect, for al his ways are equitable. A trustworthy God who does nowrong, he is the Honest, the Upright One!	4 θεος αληθινα τα εργα αυτου και πασαι αι οδοι αυτου κρισεις θεος πιστος και ουκ εστιν αδικια δικαιος και οσιος κυριος
5 They have acted perversely, those he fathered without blemish, a deceitful and underhand brood.	5 ημαρτοσαν ουκ αυτω τεκνα μωμητα γενεα σκολια και διεστραμμενη
6 Is this the return you make to Yahweh? O people brainless and unwise! Is this not your father, whogave you being, who made you, by whom you subsist?	6 ταυτα κυριω ανταποδιδοτε ουτω λαος μωρος και ουχι σοφος ουκ αυτος ουτος σου πατηρ εκτησατο σε και εποιησεν σε και εκτισεν σε
7 Think back on the days of old, think over the years, down the ages. Question your father, let himexplain to you, your elders, and let them tel you!	7 μνησθητε ημερας αιωνος συνετε ετη γενεας γενεων επερωτησον τον πατερα σου και αναγγελει σοι τους πρεσβυτερους σου και ερουσιν σοι
8 When the Most High gave the nations each their heritage, when he partitioned out the human race, heassigned the boundaries of nations according to the number of the children of God,	8 οτε διεμεριζεν ο υψιστος εθνη ως διεσπειρεν υιους αδαμ εστησεν ορια εθνων κατα αριθμον αγγελων θεου
9 but Yahweh's portion was his people, Jacob was to be the measure of his inheritance.	9 και εγενηθη μερις κυριου λαος αυτου ιακωβ σχοινισμα κληρονομιας αυτου ισραηλ
10 In the desert he finds him, in the howling expanses of the wastelands. He protects him, rears him,guards him as the pupil of his eye.	10 αυταρκησεν αυτον εν γη ερημω εν διψει καυματος εν ανυδρω εκυκλωσεν αυτον και επαιδευσεν αυτον και διεφυλαξεν αυτον ως κοραν οφθαλμου
11 Like an eagle watching its nest, hovering over its young, he spreads out his wings to hold him, hesupports him on his pinions.	11 ως αετος σκεπασαι νοσσιαν αυτου και επι τοις νεοσσοις αυτου επεποθησεν διεις τας πτερυγας αυτου εδεξατο αυτους και ανελαβεν αυτους επι των μεταφρενων αυτου
12 Yahweh alone is his guide; no alien god for him!	12 κυριος μονος ηγεν αυτους και ουκ ην μετ' αυτων θεος αλλοτριος
13 He gives him the heights of the land to ride, he feeds him on the yield of the mountains, he gives himhoney from the rock to taste, and oil from the flinty crag;	13 ανεβιβασεν αυτους επι την ισχυν της γης εψωμισεν αυτους γενηματα αγρων εθηλασαν μελι εκ πετρας και ελαιον εκ στερεας πετρας
14 curds from the cattle, milk from the flock, and the richness of the pasture, rams of Bashan's breed,and goats, the richness of the wheat kernel; the fermented blood of the grape for drink.	14 βουτυρον βοων και γαλα προβατων μετα στεατος αρνων και κριων υιων ταυρων και τραγων μετα στεατος νεφρων πυρου και αιμα σταφυλης επιον οινον
15 Jacob has eaten to his heart's content, Jeshurun, grown fat, has now lashed out. (You have grownfat, gross, bloated.) He has disowned the God who made him, and dishonoured the Rock, his salvation,	15 και εφαγεν ιακωβ και ενεπλησθη και απελακτισεν ο ηγαπημενος ελιπανθη επαχυνθη επλατυνθη και εγκατελιπεν θεον τον ποιησαντα αυτον και απεστη απο θεου σωτηρος αυτου
16 whose jealousy they aroused with foreigners -- with things detestable they angered him.	16 παρωξυναν με επ' αλλοτριοις εν βδελυγμασιν αυτων εξεπικραναν με
17 They sacrificed to demons who are not God, to gods hitherto unknown to them, to newcomers ofyesterday whom their ancestors had never respected.	17 εθυσαν δαιμονιοις και ου θεω θεοις οις ουκ ηδεισαν καινοι προσφατοι ηκασιν ους ουκ ηδεισαν οι πατερες αυτων
18 (You forget the Rock who fathered you, the God who made you, you no longer remember.)	18 θεον τον γεννησαντα σε εγκατελιπες και επελαθου θεου του τρεφοντος σε
19 Yahweh saw it and, in anger, he spurned his sons and daughters.	19 και ειδεν κυριος και εζηλωσεν και παρωξυνθη δι' οργην υιων αυτου και θυγατερων
20 'I shal hide my face from them,' he said, 'and see what wil become of them. For they are a deceitfulbrood, children with no loyalty in them.	20 και ειπεν αποστρεψω το προσωπον μου απ' αυτων και δειξω τι εσται αυτοις επ' εσχατων οτι γενεα εξεστραμμενη εστιν υιοι οις ουκ εστιν πιστις εν αυτοις
21 They have roused me to jealousy with a non-god, they have exasperated me with their idols. In myturn I shal rouse them to jealousy with a non-people, I shal exasperate them with a stupid nation.	21 αυτοι παρεζηλωσαν με επ' ου θεω παρωργισαν με εν τοις ειδωλοις αυτων καγω παραζηλωσω αυτους επ' ουκ εθνει επ' εθνει ασυνετω παροργιω αυτους
22 Yes, a fire has blazed from my anger, it will burn right down to the depths of Sheol; it will devour theearth and al its produce, it wil set fire to the footings of the mountains.	22 οτι πυρ εκκεκαυται εκ του θυμου μου καυθησεται εως αδου κατω καταφαγεται γην και τα γενηματα αυτης φλεξει θεμελια ορεων
23 I shal hurl disasters on them, on them I shal use up al my arrows.	23 συναξω εις αυτους κακα και τα βελη μου συντελεσω εις αυτους
24 They wil be weakened by hunger, eaten away by plague and the bitter scourge. Against them I shalsend the fang of wild animals and the poison of snakes that glide in the dust.	24 τηκομενοι λιμω και βρωσει ορνεων και οπισθοτονος ανιατος οδοντας θηριων αποστελω εις αυτους μετα θυμου συροντων επι γης
25 Outside, the sword bereaves, while inside terror wil reign. Young man and girl alike will perish,suckling and greybeard both together.	25 εξωθεν ατεκνωσει αυτους μαχαιρα και εκ των ταμιειων φοβος νεανισκος συν παρθενω θηλαζων μετα καθεστηκοτος πρεσβυτου
26 I should crush them to dust, I said, I should wipe out al memory of them,	26 ειπα διασπερω αυτους παυσω δη εξ ανθρωπων το μνημοσυνον αυτων
27 did I not fear the boasting of the enemy.' But do not let their foes be mistaken! Do not let them say,'We have got the upper hand and Yahweh plays no part in this.'	27 ει μη δι' οργην εχθρων ινα μη μακροχρονισωσιν και ινα μη συνεπιθωνται οι υπεναντιοι μη ειπωσιν η χειρ ημων η υψηλη και ουχι κυριος εποιησεν ταυτα παντα
28 What a short-sighted nation this is, how thoroughly imperceptive!	28 οτι εθνος απολωλεκος βουλην εστιν και ουκ εστιν εν αυτοις επιστημη
29 Were they wise, they would succeed, they would be able to read their destiny.	29 ουκ εφρονησαν συνιεναι ταυτα καταδεξασθωσαν εις τον επιοντα χρονον
30 How else could one man rout a thousand, how could two put ten thousand to flight, were it not thattheir Rock has sold them, that Yahweh has delivered them up?	30 πως διωξεται εις χιλιους και δυο μετακινησουσιν μυριαδας ει μη ο θεος απεδοτο αυτους και κυριος παρεδωκεν αυτους
31 But their rock is not like our Rock; our enemies cannot pray for us!	31 οτι ουκ εστιν ως ο θεος ημων οι θεοι αυτων οι δε εχθροι ημων ανοητοι
32 For their vine springs from the stock of Sodom and from the groves of Gomorrah: their grapes arepoisonous grapes, their clusters are bitter;	32 εκ γαρ αμπελου σοδομων η αμπελος αυτων και η κληματις αυτων εκ γομορρας η σταφυλη αυτων σταφυλη χολης βοτρυς πικριας αυτοις
33 their wine is snakes' poison, the vipers' cruel venom.	33 θυμος δρακοντων ο οινος αυτων και θυμος ασπιδων ανιατος
34 But he, is he not safe with me, sealed inside my treasury?	34 ουκ ιδου ταυτα συνηκται παρ' εμοι και εσφραγισται εν τοις θησαυροις μου
35 Vengeance is mine, I wil pay them back, for the time when they make a false step. For the day oftheir ruin is close, doom is rushing towards them, for he wil see to it that their power fails. that neither serf norfree man remains.	35 εν ημερα εκδικησεως ανταποδωσω εν καιρω οταν σφαλη ο πους αυτων οτι εγγυς ημερα απωλειας αυτων και παρεστιν ετοιμα υμιν
36 (For Yahweh wil see his people righted, he wil take pity on his servants.)	36 οτι κρινει κυριος τον λαον αυτου και επι τοις δουλοις αυτου παρακληθησεται ειδεν γαρ παραλελυμενους αυτους και εκλελοιποτας εν επαγωγη και παρειμενους
37 'Where are their gods then?' he wil ask, 'the rock where they sought refuge,	37 και ειπεν κυριος που εισιν οι θεοι αυτων εφ' οις επεποιθεισαν επ' αυτοις
38 who ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their libations?' Let these arise and help you,let these be the shelter above you!	38 ων το στεαρ των θυσιων αυτων ησθιετε και επινετε τον οινον των σπονδων αυτων αναστητωσαν και βοηθησατωσαν υμιν και γενηθητωσαν υμιν σκεπασται
39 See now that I, I am he, and beside me there is no other god. It is I who deal death and life; when Ihave struck, it is I who heal (no one can rescue anyone from me).	39 ιδετε ιδετε οτι εγω ειμι και ουκ εστιν θεος πλην εμου εγω αποκτενω και ζην ποιησω παταξω καγω ιασομαι και ουκ εστιν ος εξελειται εκ των χειρων μου
40 Yes, I raise my hand to heaven, and I say, 'As surely as I live for ever,	40 οτι αρω εις τον ουρανον την χειρα μου και ομουμαι τη δεξια μου και ερω ζω εγω εις τον αιωνα
41 When I have whetted my flashing sword, I shal enforce justice, I shal return vengeance to my foes, Ishall take vengeance on my foes.	41 οτι παροξυνω ως αστραπην την μαχαιραν μου και ανθεξεται κριματος η χειρ μου και ανταποδωσω δικην τοις εχθροις και τοις μισουσιν με ανταποδωσω
42 I shal make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword wil feed on flesh: the blood of the woundedand the prisoners, the dishevelled heads of the enemy!'	42 μεθυσω τα βελη μου αφ' αιματος και η μαχαιρα μου καταφαγεται κρεα αφ' αιματος τραυματιων και αιχμαλωσιας απο κεφαλης αρχοντων εχθρων
43 Heavens, rejoice with him, let al the children of God pay him homage! Nations, rejoice with hispeople, let God's envoys tel of his power! For he wil avenge the blood of his servants, he wil return vengeanceto my foes, he will repay those who hate him and purify his people's country.	43 ευφρανθητε ουρανοι αμα αυτω και προσκυνησατωσαν αυτω παντες υιοι θεου ευφρανθητε εθνη μετα του λαου αυτου και ενισχυσατωσαν αυτω παντες αγγελοι θεου οτι το αιμα των υιων αυτου εκδικαται και εκδικησει και ανταποδωσει δικην τοις εχθροις και τοις μισουσιν ανταποδωσει και εκκαθαριει κυριος την γην του λαου αυτου
44 Moses came with Joshua son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the people's hearing.	44 και εγραψεν μωυσης την ωδην ταυτην εν εκεινη τη ημερα και εδιδαξεν αυτην τους υιους ισραηλ και εισηλθεν μωυσης και ελαλησεν παντας τους λογους του νομου τουτου εις τα ωτα του λαου αυτος και ιησους ο του ναυη
45 When Moses had finished reciting these words to al Israel,	45 και συνετελεσεν μωυσης λαλων παντι ισραηλ
46 he said to them, 'Take al these words to heart; I intend them today to be evidence against you. Youmust order your children to keep and observe al the words of this Law.	46 και ειπεν προς αυτους προσεχετε τη καρδια επι παντας τους λογους τουτους ους εγω διαμαρτυρομαι υμιν σημερον α εντελεισθε τοις υιοις υμων φυλασσειν και ποιειν παντας τους λογους του νομου τουτου
47 You must not think of this as empty words, for the Law is your life, and by its means you will live longin the country which you are crossing the Jordan to possess.'	47 οτι ουχι λογος κενος ουτος υμιν οτι αυτη η ζωη υμων και ενεκεν του λογου τουτου μακροημερευσετε επι της γης εις ην υμεις διαβαινετε τον ιορδανην εκει κληρονομησαι αυτην
48 Yahweh spoke to Moses that same day and said to him,	48 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην εν τη ημερα ταυτη λεγων
49 'Climb this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, in the country of Moab, opposite Jericho, and viewthe Canaan which I am giving to the Israelites as their domain.	49 αναβηθι εις το ορος το αβαριν τουτο ορος ναβαυ ο εστιν εν γη μωαβ κατα προσωπον ιεριχω και ιδε την γην χανααν ην εγω διδωμι τοις υιοις ισραηλ εις κατασχεσιν
50 Die on the mountain you have climbed, and be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron diedon Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.	50 και τελευτα εν τω ορει εις ο αναβαινεις εκει και προστεθητι προς τον λαον σου ον τροπον απεθανεν ααρων ο αδελφος σου εν ωρ τω ορει και προσετεθη προς τον λαον αυτου
51 Because, with the other Israelites, you broke faith with me at the Waters of Meribah-Kadesh in thedesert of Zin, because you did not make my holiness clear to the Israelites;	51 διοτι ηπειθησατε τω ρηματι μου εν τοις υιοις ισραηλ επι του υδατος αντιλογιας καδης εν τη ερημω σιν διοτι ουχ ηγιασατε με εν τοις υιοις ισραηλ
52 you may only see the country from outside; you cannot enter it -- the country which I am giving to theIsraelites.'	52 οτι απεναντι οψη την γην και εκει ουκ εισελευση
