Micah 3

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 And I said: Hear, O ye princes of Jacob, and ye chiefs of the house of Israel: Is it not your part to know judgment,	1 και ερει ακουσατε δη ταυτα αι αρχαι οικου ιακωβ και οι καταλοιποι οικου ισραηλ ουχ υμιν εστιν του γνωναι το κριμα
2 You that hate good, and love evil: that violently pluck off their skins from them, and their flesh from their bones?	2 οι μισουντες τα καλα και ζητουντες τα πονηρα αρπαζοντες τα δερματα αυτων απ' αυτων και τας σαρκας αυτων απο των οστεων αυτων
3 Who have eaten the flesh of my people, and have flayed their skin from off them: and have broken, and chopped their bones as for the kettle, and as flesh in the midst of the pot.	3 ον τροπον κατεφαγον τας σαρκας του λαου μου και τα δερματα αυτων απο των οστεων αυτων εξεδειραν και τα οστεα αυτων συνεθλασαν και εμελισαν ως σαρκας εις λεβητα και ως κρεα εις χυτραν
4 Then shall they cry to the Lord, and he will not hear them: and he will hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved wickedly in their devices.	4 ουτως κεκραξονται προς κυριον και ουκ εισακουσεται αυτων και αποστρεψει το προσωπον αυτου απ' αυτων εν τω καιρω εκεινω ανθ' ων επονηρευσαντο εν τοις επιτηδευμασιν αυτων επ' αυτους
5 Thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that make my people err: that bite with their teeth, and preach peace: and if a man give not something into their mouth, they prepare war against him.	5 ταδε λεγει κυριος επι τους προφητας τους πλανωντας τον λαον μου τους δακνοντας εν τοις οδουσιν αυτων και κηρυσσοντας επ' αυτον ειρηνην και ουκ εδοθη εις το στομα αυτων ηγειραν επ' αυτον πολεμον
6 Therefore night shall be to you instead of vision, and darkness to you instead of divination; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be darkened over them.	6 δια τουτο νυξ υμιν εσται εξ ορασεως και σκοτια υμιν εσται εκ μαντειας και δυσεται ο ηλιος επι τους προφητας και συσκοτασει επ' αυτους η ημερα
7 And they shall be confounded that see visions, and the diviners shall be confounded: and they shall all cover their faces, because there is no answer of God.	7 και καταισχυνθησονται οι ορωντες τα ενυπνια και καταγελασθησονται οι μαντεις και καταλαλησουσιν κατ' αυτων παντες αυτοι διοτι ουκ εσται ο εισακουων αυτων
8 But yet I am filled with the strength of the spirit of the Lord, with judgment, and power: to declare unto Jacob his wickedness, and to Israel his sin.	8 εαν μη εγω εμπλησω ισχυν εν πνευματι κυριου και κριματος και δυναστειας του απαγγειλαι τω ιακωβ ασεβειας αυτου και τω ισραηλ αμαρτιας αυτου
9 Hear this, ye princes of the house of Jacob, and ye judges of the house of Israel: you that abhor judgment, and pervert all that is right.	9 ακουσατε δη ταυτα οι ηγουμενοι οικου ιακωβ και οι καταλοιποι οικου ισραηλ οι βδελυσσομενοι κριμα και παντα τα ορθα διαστρεφοντες
10 You that build up Sion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.	10 οι οικοδομουντες σιων εν αιμασιν και ιερουσαλημ εν αδικιαις
11 Her princes have judged for bribes, and her priests have taught for hire, and her prophets divined for money: and they leaned upon the Lord, saying: Is not the Lord in the midst of us? no evil shall come upon us.	11 οι ηγουμενοι αυτης μετα δωρων εκρινον και οι ιερεις αυτης μετα μισθου απεκρινοντο και οι προφηται αυτης μετα αργυριου εμαντευοντο και επι τον κυριον επανεπαυοντο λεγοντες ουχι κυριος εν ημιν εστιν ου μη επελθη εφ' ημας κακα
12 Therefore, because of you, Sion shall be ploughed as a field, and Jerusalem shall be as a heap of stones, and the mountain of the temple as the high places of the forests.	12 δια τουτο δι' υμας σιων ως αγρος αροτριαθησεται και ιερουσαλημ ως οπωροφυλακιον εσται και το ορος του οικου ως αλσος δρυμου
