Jeremiah 3

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	LXX
1 "If a man divorces his wife and she goes from him and becomes another man's wife, will he return to her? Would not that land be greatly polluted? You have played the harlot with many lovers; and would you return to me? says the LORD.	1 εαν εξαποστειλη ανηρ την γυναικα αυτου και απελθη απ' αυτου και γενηται ανδρι ετερω μη ανακαμπτουσα ανακαμψει προς αυτον ετι ου μιαινομενη μιανθησεται η γυνη εκεινη και συ εξεπορνευσας εν ποιμεσιν πολλοις και ανεκαμπτες προς με λεγει κυριος
2 Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see! Where have you not been lain with? By the waysides you have sat awaiting lovers like an Arab in the wilderness. You have polluted the land with your vile harlotry.	2 αρον εις ευθειαν τους οφθαλμους σου και ιδε που ουχι εξεφυρθης επι ταις οδοις εκαθισας αυτοις ωσει κορωνη ερημουμενη και εμιανας την γην εν ταις πορνειαις σου και εν ταις κακιαις σου
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and the spring rain has not come; yet you have a harlot's brow, you refuse to be ashamed.	3 και εσχες ποιμενας πολλους εις προσκομμα σεαυτη οψις πορνης εγενετο σοι απηναισχυντησας προς παντας
4 Have you not just now called to me, 'My father, thou art the friend of my youth--	4 ουχ ως οικον με εκαλεσας και πατερα και αρχηγον της παρθενιας σου
5 will he be angry for ever, will he be indignant to the end?' Behold, you have spoken, but you have done all the evil that you could."	5 μη διαμενει εις τον αιωνα η διαφυλαχθησεται εις νεικος ιδου ελαλησας και εποιησας τα πονηρα ταυτα και ηδυνασθης
6 The LORD said to me in the days of King Josiah: "Have you seen what she did, that faithless one, Israel, how she went up on every high hill and under every green tree, and there played the harlot?	6 και ειπεν κυριος προς με εν ταις ημεραις ιωσια του βασιλεως ειδες α εποιησεν μοι η κατοικια του ισραηλ επορευθησαν επι παν ορος υψηλον και υποκατω παντος ξυλου αλσωδους και επορνευσαν εκει
7 And I thought, 'After she has done all this she will return to me'; but she did not return, and her false sister Judah saw it.	7 και ειπα μετα το πορνευσαι αυτην ταυτα παντα προς με αναστρεψον και ουκ ανεστρεψεν και ειδεν την ασυνθεσιαν αυτης η ασυνθετος ιουδα
8 She saw that for all the adulteries of that faithless one, Israel, I had sent her away with a decree of divorce; yet her false sister Judah did not fear, but she too went and played the harlot.	8 και ειδον διοτι περι παντων ων κατελημφθη εν οις εμοιχατο η κατοικια του ισραηλ και εξαπεστειλα αυτην και εδωκα αυτη βιβλιον αποστασιου εις τας χειρας αυτης και ουκ εφοβηθη η ασυνθετος ιουδα και επορευθη και επορνευσεν και αυτη
9 Because harlotry was so light to her, she polluted the land, committing adultery with stone and tree.	9 και εγενετο εις ουθεν η πορνεια αυτης και εμοιχευσεν το ξυλον και τον λιθον
10 Yet for all this her false sister Judah did not return to me with her whole heart, but in pretense, says the LORD."	10 και εν πασιν τουτοις ουκ επεστραφη προς με η ασυνθετος ιουδα εξ ολης της καρδιας αυτης αλλ' επι ψευδει
11 And the LORD said to me, "Faithless Israel has shown herself less guilty than false Judah.	11 και ειπεν κυριος προς με εδικαιωσεν την ψυχην αυτου ισραηλ απο της ασυνθετου ιουδα
12 Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, 'Return, faithless Israel, says the LORD. I will not look on you in anger, for I am merciful, says the LORD; I will not be angry for ever.	12 πορευου και αναγνωθι τους λογους τουτους προς βορραν και ερεις επιστραφητι προς με η κατοικια του ισραηλ λεγει κυριος και ου στηριω το προσωπον μου εφ' υμας οτι ελεημων εγω ειμι λεγει κυριος και ου μηνιω υμιν εις τον αιωνα
13 Only acknowledge your guilt, that you rebelled against the LORD your God and scattered your favors among strangers under every green tree, and that you have not obeyed my voice, says the LORD.	13 πλην γνωθι την αδικιαν σου οτι εις κυριον τον θεον σου ησεβησας και διεχεας τας οδους σου εις αλλοτριους υποκατω παντος ξυλου αλσωδους της δε φωνης μου ουχ υπηκουσας λεγει κυριος
14 Return, O faithless children, says the LORD; for I am your master; I will take you, one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion.	14 επιστραφητε υιοι αφεστηκοτες λεγει κυριος διοτι εγω κατακυριευσω υμων και λημψομαι υμας ενα εκ πολεως και δυο εκ πατριας και εισαξω υμας εις σιων
15 "'And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.	15 και δωσω υμιν ποιμενας κατα την καρδιαν μου και ποιμανουσιν υμας ποιμαινοντες μετ' επιστημης
16 And when you have multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, says the LORD, they shall no more say, "The ark of the covenant of the LORD." It shall not come to mind, or be remembered, or missed; it shall not be made again.	16 και εσται εαν πληθυνθητε και αυξηθητε επι της γης εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις λεγει κυριος ουκ ερουσιν ετι κιβωτος διαθηκης αγιου ισραηλ ουκ αναβησεται επι καρδιαν ουκ ονομασθησεται ουδε επισκεφθησεται και ου ποιηθησεται ετι
17 At that time Jerusalem shall be called the throne of the LORD, and all nations shall gather to it, to the presence of the LORD in Jerusalem, and they shall no more stubbornly follow their own evil heart.	17 εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και εν τω καιρω εκεινω καλεσουσιν την ιερουσαλημ θρονος κυριου και συναχθησονται εις αυτην παντα τα εθνη και ου πορευσονται ετι οπισω των ενθυμηματων της καρδιας αυτων της πονηρας
18 In those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land of the north to the land that I gave your fathers for a heritage.	18 εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις συνελευσονται οικος ιουδα επι τον οικον του ισραηλ και ηξουσιν επι το αυτο απο γης βορρα και απο πασων των χωρων επι την γην ην κατεκληρονομησα τους πατερας αυτων
19 "'I thought how I would set you among my sons, and give you a pleasant land, a heritage most beauteous of all nations. And I thought you would call me, My Father, and would not turn from following me.	19 και εγω ειπα γενοιτο κυριε οτι ταξω σε εις τεκνα και δωσω σοι γην εκλεκτην κληρονομιαν θεου παντοκρατορος εθνων και ειπα πατερα καλεσετε με και απ' εμου ουκ αποστραφησεσθε
20 Surely, as a faithless wife leaves her husband, so have you been faithless to me, O house of Israel, says the LORD.'"	20 πλην ως αθετει γυνη εις τον συνοντα αυτη ουτως ηθετησεν εις εμε οικος ισραηλ λεγει κυριος
21 A voice on the bare heights is heard, the weeping and pleading of Israel's sons, because they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the LORD their God.	21 φωνη εκ χειλεων ηκουσθη κλαυθμου και δεησεως υιων ισραηλ οτι ηδικησαν εν ταις οδοις αυτων επελαθοντο θεου αγιου αυτων
22 "Return, O faithless sons, I will heal your faithlessness." "Behold, we come to thee; for thou art the LORD our God.	22 επιστραφητε υιοι επιστρεφοντες και ιασομαι τα συντριμματα υμων ιδου δουλοι ημεις εσομεθα σοι οτι συ κυριος ο θεος ημων ει
23 Truly the hills are a delusion, the orgies on the mountains. Truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel.	23 οντως εις ψευδος ησαν οι βουνοι και η δυναμις των ορεων πλην δια κυριου θεου ημων η σωτηρια του ισραηλ
24 "But from our youth the shameful thing has devoured all for which our fathers labored, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.	24 η δε αισχυνη καταναλωσεν τους μοχθους των πατερων ημων απο νεοτητος ημων τα προβατα αυτων και τους μοσχους αυτων και τους υιους αυτων και τας θυγατερας αυτων
25 Let us lie down in our shame, and let our dishonor cover us; for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day; and we have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God."	25 εκοιμηθημεν εν τη αισχυνη ημων και επεκαλυψεν ημας η ατιμια ημων διοτι εναντι του θεου ημων ημαρτομεν ημεις και οι πατερες ημων απο νεοτητος ημων εως της ημερας ταυτης και ουχ υπηκουσαμεν της φωνης κυριου του θεου ημων
