ΗΣΑΙΑΣ - Isaia - Isaiah 14

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Διοτι ο Κυριος θελει ελεησει τον Ιακωβ, και θελει ετι εκλεξει τον Ισραηλ και καταστησει αυτους εν τη γη αυτων? και οι ξενοι θελουσιν ενωθη μετ' αυτων και θελουσι προσκολληθη εις τον οικον του Ιακωβ.	1 Her time is drawing near, and her days will not be prolonged. For the Lord will take pity on Jacob, and he will still choose from Israel, and he will cause them to rest upon their own soil. And the new arrival will be joined to them, and he will adhere to the house of Jacob.
2 Και οι λαοι θελουσι λαβει αυτους και φερει αυτους εις τον τοπον αυτων? και ο οικος του Ισραηλ θελει κληρονομησει αυτους εν τη γη του Κυριου δια δουλους και δουλας? και θελουσιν εισθαι αιχμαλωτοι αυτων οι αιχμαλωτισαντες αυτους, και θελουσι γεινει κυριοι των καταθλιβοντων αυτους.	2 And the people will take them, and lead them to their place. And the house of Israel will possess them, in the land of the Lord, as men and women servants. And they will take captive those who had taken them captive. And they will subjugate their oppressors.
3 Και καθ' ην ημεραν ο Κυριος θελει σε αναπαυσει απο της θλιψεως σου και απο του φοβου σου και απο της σκληρας δουλειας, εις την οποιαν ησο καταδεδουλωμενος,	3 And this shall be in that day: when God will have given you rest from your labor, and from your oppression, and from the difficult servitude under which you served before,
4 θελεις μεταχειρισθη την παροιμιαν ταυτην κατα του βασιλεως της Βαβυλωνος, λεγων, Πως επαυθη ο καταδυναστης? πως επαυθη η φορολογος του χρυσιου.	4 you will accept this parable against the king of Babylon, and you will say: “How is it that the oppressor has ceased, along with his tribute?
5 Ο Κυριος συνετριψε την ραβδον των ασεβων, το σκηπτρον των δυναστων.	5 The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots,
6 Ο πατασσων εν θυμω τον λαον με ακαταπαυστον κτυπημα, ο δεσποζων εν οργη επι τα εθνη, καταδιωκεται, και ουδεις ο κωλυων.	6 which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty.
7 Πασα η γη αναπαυεται, ησυχαζει? εκφωνουσιν ασματα αγαλλιασεως.	7 All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.
8 Χαιρουσιν επι σε και αι ελατοι, αι κεδροι του Λιβανου, λεγουσαι, Αφου συ εκοιμηθης, δενδροτομος δεν ανεβη εφ' ημας.	8 The evergreens, too, have rejoiced over you, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying: ‘Since you have slept, no one has ascended who would cut us down.’
9 Ο αδης κατωθεν εκινηθη δια σε, δια να απαντηση την ελευσιν σου? δια σε εξηγειρε τους νεκρους, παντας τους ηγεμονας της γης? εσηκωσεν εκ των θρονων αυτων παντας τους βασιλεις των εθνων.	9 Hell below was stirred up to meet you at your advent; it has awakened the giants for you. All the leaders of the earth have risen from their thrones, all the leaders among the nations.”
10 Παντες ουτοι θελουσιν αποκριθη και ειπει προς σε, Και συ εγεινες αδυνατος, καθως ημεις; κατεσταθης ομοιος ημων;	10 Everyone will respond and will say to you: “Now you are wounded, just as we were; you have become like us.
11 Η μεγαλαυχια σου κατηνεχθη εις τον ταφον και ο θορυβος των μουσικων σου οργανων? ο σκωληξ ειναι εστρωμενος υποκατω σου και οι σκωληκες σε σκεπαζουσι?	11 Your arrogance has been dragged down to Hell. Your body has fallen dead. The moths will be strewn beneath you, and the worms will be your covering.
12 πως επεσες εκ του ουρανου, Εωσφορε, υιε της αυγης? συνετριφθης κατα γης, συ ο καταπατων τα εθνη.	12 How is it that you have fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who used to rise like the sun? How is it that you have fallen to the earth, you who wounded the peoples?
13 Συ δε ελεγες εν τη καρδια σου, Θελω αναβη εις τον ουρανον, θελω υψωσει τον θρονον μου υπερανω των αστρων του Θεου? και θελω καθησει επι το ορος της συναξεως, προς τα μερη του βορρα?	13 And you said in your heart: ‘I will climb up to heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be enthroned upon the mountain of the covenant, on the northern parts.
14 θελω αναβη επι τα υψη των νεφελων? θελω εισθαι ομοιος του Υψιστου.	14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will be like the Most High.’
15 Εις τον αδην ομως θελεις καταβη, εις τα βαθη του λακκου.	15 Yet truly, you shall be dragged down to Hell, into the depths of the pit.
16 Οι βλεποντες σε θελουσιν ενατενισει προς σε, θελουσι σε παρατηρει, λεγοντες, ουτος ειναι ο ανθρωπος ο ποιων την γην να τρεμη, ο σειων τα βασιλεια;	16 Those who see you, will lean toward you, and will gaze upon you, saying: ‘Could this be the man who disturbed the earth, who shook kingdoms,
17 Ο ερημονων την οικουμενην και καταστρεφων τας πολεις αυτης; ο μη απολυων εις τας οικιας αυτων τους δεσμιους αυτου;	17 who made the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who would not even open a prison for his prisoners?’ ”
18 Παντες οι βασιλεις των εθνων, παντες αναπαυονται εν δοξη, εκαστος εν τη οικια αυτου?	18 All the kings of the nations throughout the whole world have slept in glory, each man in his own house.
19 συ δε απερριφθης του ταφου σου ως κλαδος βδελυκτος, ιματιον κεκεντημενων, πεφονευμενων εν μαχαιρα, καταβαινοντων εις τας πετρας του λακκου? ως πτωμα καταπατουμενον.	19 But you have been rejected from your grave, like a useless polluted plant, and you have been bound up with those who were slain by the sword, and who descended to the bottom of the pit, like a rotting carcass.
20 Δεν θελεις ενωθη μετ' αυτων εις ενταφιασμον, διοτι ηφανισας την γην σου, εφονευσας τον λαον σου? το σπερμα των κακοποιων ουδεποτε θελει ονομασθη.	20 You will not be associated with them, even in the grave. For you have destroyed your own land; you have slain your own people. The offspring of the wicked ones will not be called upon for eternity.
21 Ετοιμασατε σφαγην εις τα τεκνα αυτου δια την ανομιαν των πατερων αυτων, δια να μη σηκωθωσι και κληρονομησωσι την γην, και γεμισωσι το προσωπον της οικουμενης απο πολεων.	21 Prepare his sons for the slaughter, according to the iniquity of their fathers. They will not rise up, nor inherit the earth, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 Διοτι θελω σηκωθη εναντιον αυτων, λεγει ο Κυριος των δυναμεων? και θελω εξαλειψει απο της Βαβυλωνος το ονομα και το υπολοιπον και υιον και εκγονον, λεγει Κυριος.	22 But I will rise up against them, says the Lord of hosts. And I will perish the name of Babylon and its remnants: both the plant and its progeny, says the Lord.
23 Και θελω καταστησει αυτην κληρονομιαν εχινων και λιμνας υδατων? και θελω σαρωσει αυτην με το σαρωθρον της απωλειας, λεγει ο Κυριος των δυναμεων.	23 And I will appoint it as a possession for the hedgehog, with swamps of water. And I will sweep it out and wear it away with a brush, says the Lord of hosts.
24 Ωμοσεν ο Κυριος των δυναμεων, λεγων, Εξαπαντος καθως εβουλευθην, ουτω θελει γεινει? και καθως απεφασισα, ουτω θελει μεινει,	24 The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying: Surely, just as I have considered it, so shall it be, and in the same manner as I have drawn it through my mind,
25 να συντριψω τον Ασσυριον εν τη γη μου και να καταπατησω αυτον επι των ορεων μου? τοτε ο ζυγος αυτου θελει σηκωθη απ' αυτων και το φορτιον αυτου θελει αφαιρεθη απο των ωμων αυτων.	25 so shall it occur. So shall I crush the Assyrian in my land, and I will trample him upon my mountains, and his yoke will be taken away from them, and his burden will be removed from their shoulder.
26 Αυτη ειναι η βουλη η βεβουλευμενη καθ' ολης της γης? και αυτη η χειρ η εξηπλωμενη επι παντα τα εθνη.	26 This is the plan that I have decided, concerning the entire earth, and this is the hand which is extended over all the nations.
27 Διοτι ο Κυριος των δυναμεων απεφασισε και τις θελει αναιρεσει; και η χειρ αυτου εξηπλωθη και τις θελει αποστρεψει αυτην;	27 For the Lord of hosts has decreed it, and who is able to weaken it? And his hand is extended, so who can avert it?
28 Εν τω ετει, καθ' ο απεθανεν ο βασιλευς Αχαζ, εγεινεν αυτη η ορασις.	28 In the year in which king Ahaz died, this burden was given:
29 Μη χαιρε, Παλαιστινη πασα, διοτι συνετριφθη η ραβδος του παταξαντος σε? επειδη εκ της ριζης του οφεως θελει εξελθει βασιλισκος, και ο καρπος αυτου θελει εισθαι φλογερος πετωμενος οφις.	29 You should not rejoice, all you of Philistia, that the rod of him who struck you has been crushed. For from the root of the serpent will go forth a king snake, and his offspring will engulf that which flies.
30 Και οι πρωτοτοκοι του πτωχου θελουσι τραφη και οι ενδεεις θελουσιν αναπαυεσθαι εν ασφαλεια? και θελω θανατωσει την ριζαν σου με πειναν, και θελω φονευσει το υπολοιπον σου.	30 And the firstborn of the poor will be pastured, and the poor will rest in faithfulness. And I will cause your root to pass away by famine, and I will put to death your remnant.
31 Ολολυζε, πυλη? βοα, πολις? εχαθης, Παλαιστινη πασα? διοτι ερχεται καπνος απο βορρα, και ουδε εις θελει λειψει απο της εκστρατευσεως αυτου εν τοις ωρισμενοις καιροις.	31 Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! All of Philistia has been prostrated. For a smoke will arrive from the north, and there is no one who will escape his army.
32 Και τις αποκρισις θελει δοθη εις τους πρεσβεις των εθνων; Οτι ο Κυριος εθεμελιωσε την Σιων, και επ' αυτην θελουσιν ελπιζει οι πτωχοι του λαου αυτου.	32 And what will be the response to this news among the nations? It will be that the Lord has established Zion, and that the poor of his people will hope in him.
