Exodus 4

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	GREEK BIBLE
1 Then Moses answered, "But behold, they will not believe me or listen to my voice, for they will say, 'The LORD did not appear to you.'"	1 Απεκριθη δε ο Μωυσης και ειπε, Αλλ' ιδου, δεν θελουσι πιστευσει εις εμε ουδε θελουσιν εισακουσει εις την φωνην μου? διοτι θελουσιν ειπει, δεν εφανη εις σε ο Κυριος.
2 The LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?" He said, "A rod."	2 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Κυριος, Τι ειναι τουτο, το εν τη χειρι σου; Ο δε ειπε, Ραβδος.
3 And he said, "Cast it on the ground." So he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from it.	3 Και ειπε, Ριψον αυτην κατα γης. Και ερριψεν αυτην κατα γης και εγεινεν οφις? και εφυγεν ο Μωυσης απ' εμπροσθεν αυτου.
4 But the LORD said to Moses, "Put out your hand, and take it by the tail"-- so he put out his hand and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand--	4 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Εκτεινον την χειρα σου και πιασον αυτον απο της ουρας? και εκτεινας την χειρα αυτου επιασεν αυτον και εγεινε ραβδος εν τη χειρι αυτου?
5 "that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you."	5 δια να πιστευσωσιν οτι εφανη εις σε Κυριος ο Θεος των πατερων αυτων, ο Θεος του Αβρααμ, ο Θεος του Ισαακ και ο Θεος του Ιακωβ.
6 Again, the LORD said to him, "Put your hand into your bosom." And he put his hand into his bosom; and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white as snow.	6 Και ειπεν ετι προς αυτον ο Κυριος, Βαλε τωρα την χειρα σου εις τον κολπον σου. Και εβαλε την χειρα αυτου εις τον κολπον αυτου? και οτε εξηγαγεν αυτην, ιδου, η χειρ αυτου λεπρα ως χιων.
7 Then God said, "Put your hand back into your bosom." So he put his hand back into his bosom; and when he took it out, behold, it was restored like the rest of his flesh.	7 Και ειπε, Βαλε παλιν την χειρα σου εις τον κολπον σου. Και εβαλε την χειρα αυτου εις τον κολπον αυτου? και οτε εξηγαγεν αυτην εκ του κολπου αυτου, ιδου, αποκατεσταθη καθως η σαρξ αυτου.
8 "If they will not believe you," God said, "or heed the first sign, they may believe the latter sign.	8 Εαν δε, ειπεν ο Κυριος, δεν πιστευσωσιν εις σε μηδε εισακουσωσιν εις την φωνην του σημειου του πρωτου, θελουσι πιστευσει εις την φωνην του σημειου του δευτερου?
9 If they will not believe even these two signs or heed your voice, you shall take some water from the Nile and pour it upon the dry ground; and the water which you shall take from the Nile will become blood upon the dry ground."	9 εαν δε δεν πιστευσωσι και εις τα δυο ταυτα σημεια μηδε εισακουσωσιν εις την φωνην σου, θελεις λαβει εκ του υδατος του ποταμου και θελεις χυσει αυτο επι της ξηρας? και το υδωρ, το οποιον ηθελες λαβει εκ του ποταμου, θελει γεινει αιμα επι της ξηρας.
10 But Moses said to the LORD, "Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either heretofore or since thou hast spoken to thy servant; but I am slow of speech and of tongue."	10 Και ειπεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Κυριον, Δεομαι, Κυριε? εγω δεν ειμαι ευλαλος ουτε απο χθες ουτε απο προχθες ουτε αφ' ης ωρας ελαλησας προς τον δουλον σου? αλλ' ειμαι βραδυστομος και βραδυγλωσσος.
11 Then the LORD said to him, "Who has made man's mouth? Who makes him dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the LORD?	11 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Κυριος, Τις εδωκε στομα εις τον ανθρωπον; η τις εκαμε τον ευλαλον, η τον κωφον η τον βλεποντα τον τυφλον; ουχι εγω ο Κυριος;
12 Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak."	12 υπαγε λοιπον τωρα και εγω θελω εισθαι μετα του στοματος σου και θελω σε διδαξει ο, τι μελλεις να λαλησης.
13 But he said, "Oh, my Lord, send, I pray, some other person."	13 Ο δε ειπε, Δεομαι, Κυριε, αποστειλον οντινα εχεις να αποστειλης.
14 Then the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses and he said, "Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well; and behold, he is coming out to meet you, and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart.	14 Και εξηφθη ο θυμος του Κυριου κατα του Μωυσεως? και ειπε, Δεν ειναι Ααρων ο αδελφος σου ο Λευιτης; εξευρω οτι αυτος δυναται να λαλη καλως? και μαλιστα, ιδου, εξερχεται εις συναντησιν σου και οταν σε ιδη, θελει χαρη εν τη καρδια αυτου?
15 And you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do.	15 συ λοιπον θελεις λαλει προς αυτον και θελεις βαλλει τους λογους εις το στομα αυτου? εγω δε θελω εισθαι μετα του στοματος σου και μετα του στοματος εκεινου και θελω σας διδαξει ο, τι πρεπει να πραξητε?
16 He shall speak for you to the people; and he shall be a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God.	16 και αυτος θελει λαλει αντι σου προς τον λαον? και αυτος θελει εισθαι εις σε αντι στοματος, συ δε θελεις εισθαι εις αυτον αντι Θεου?
17 And you shall take in your hand this rod, with which you shall do the signs."	17 λαβε δε εις την χειρα σου την ραβδον ταυτην, με την οποιαν θελεις καμνει τα σημεια.
18 Moses went back to Jethro his father-in-law and said to him, "Let me go back, I pray, to my kinsmen in Egypt and see whether they are still alive." And Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."	18 Και ανεχωρησεν ο Μωυσης και επεστρεψε προς τον Ιοθορ τον πενθερον αυτου και ειπε προς αυτον, Ας υπαγω, παρακαλω, και ας επιστρεψω προς τους αδελφους μου, τους εν Αιγυπτω, και ας ιδω αν ζωσιν ετι. Και ειπεν ο Ιοθορ προς τον Μωυσην, Υπαγε εν ειρηνη.
19 And the LORD said to Moses in Midian, "Go back to Egypt; for all the men who were seeking your life are dead."	19 Ο δε Κυριος ειπε προς τον Μωυσην εν Μαδιαμ, Υπαγε, επιστρεψον εις Αιγυπτον? διοτι απεθανον παντες οι ανθρωποι οι ζητουντες την ψυχην σου.
20 So Moses took his wife and his sons and set them on an ass, and went back to the land of Egypt; and in his hand Moses took the rod of God.	20 Τοτε παραλαβων ο Μωυσης την γυναικα αυτου και τα τεκνα αυτου και καθισας αυτα επι ονους επεστρεψεν εις την γην της Αιγυπτου? ελαβε δε ο Μωυσης την ραβδον του Θεου εν τη χειρι αυτου.
21 And the LORD said to Moses, "When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the miracles which I have put in your power; but I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go.	21 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Οταν υπαγης και επιστρεψης εις Αιγυπτον, ιδε να καμης εμπροσθεν του Φαραω παντα τα θαυμασια, τα οποια εδωκα εις την χειρα σου? πλην εγω θελω σκληρυνει την καρδιαν αυτου, και δεν θελει εξαποστειλει τον λαον?
22 And you shall say to Pharaoh, 'Thus says the LORD, Israel is my first-born son,	22 και θελεις ειπει προς τον Φαραω, Ουτω λεγει Κυριος? Υιος μου ειναι, πρωτοτοκος μου, ο Ισραηλ?
23 and I say to you, "Let my son go that he may serve me"; if you refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay your first-born son.'"	23 και προς σε λεγω, Εξαποστειλον τον υιον μου, δια να με λατρευση? και εαν δεν θελης να εξαποστειλης αυτον, ιδου, εγω θελω θανατωσει τον υιον σου, τον πρωτοτοκον σου.
24 At a lodging place on the way the LORD met him and sought to kill him.	24 Ενω δε ο Μωυσης ητο εν τη οδω, εν τω καταλυματι, συνηντησεν αυτον ο Κυριος και εζητει να θανατωση αυτον.
25 Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son's foreskin, and touched Moses' feet with it, and said, "Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me!"	25 Και λαβουσα η Σεπφωρα λιθαριον κοπτερον, περιετεμε την ακροβυστιαν του υιου αυτης, και ερριψεν εις τους ποδας αυτου, λεγουσα, Βεβαιως νυμφιος αιματων εισαι εις εμε.
26 So he let him alone. Then it was that she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood," because of the circumcision.	26 Και απηλθεν απ' αυτου? η δε ειπε, Νυμφιος αιματων εισαι ενεκα της περιτομης.
27 The LORD said to Aaron, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moses." So he went, and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him.	27 Ειπε δε Κυριος προς τον Ααρων, Υπαγε προς συναντησιν του Μωυσεως εις την ερημον. Και υπηγε και συνηντησεν αυτον εν τω ορει του Θεου και ησπασθη αυτον.
28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD with which he had sent him, and all the signs which he had charged him to do.	28 Και απηγγειλεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Ααρων παντας τους λογους του Κυριου, τους οποιους παρηγγειλεν εις αυτον, και παντα τα σημεια, τα οποια προσεταξεν εις αυτον.
29 Then Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the people of Israel.	29 Υπηγαν λοιπον ο Μωυσης και ο Ααρων και συνηγαγον παντας τους πρεσβυτερους των υιων Ισραηλ?
30 And Aaron spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.	30 και ελαλησεν ο Ααρων παντας τους λογους, τους οποιους ο Κυριος ελαλησε προς τον Μωυσην, και εκαμε τα σημεια ενωπιον του λαου.
31 And the people believed; and when they heard that the LORD had visited the people of Israel and that he had seen their affliction, they bowed their heads and worshiped.	31 Και επιστευσεν ο λαος? και οτε ηκουσεν οτι ο Κυριος επεσκεφθη τους υιους Ισραηλ και οτι επεβλεψεν επι την ταλαιπωριαν αυτων, κυψαντες προσεκυνησαν.
