Isaiah 45

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 Thus saith the Lord to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have taken hold of, to subdue nations before his face, and to turn the backs of kings, and to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut.	1 ουτως λεγει κυριος ο θεος τω χριστω μου κυρω ου εκρατησα της δεξιας επακουσαι εμπροσθεν αυτου εθνη και ισχυν βασιλεων διαρρηξω ανοιξω εμπροσθεν αυτου θυρας και πολεις ου συγκλεισθησονται
2 I will go before thee, and will humble the great ones of the earth: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and will burst the bars of iron.	2 εγω εμπροσθεν σου πορευσομαι και ορη ομαλιω θυρας χαλκας συντριψω και μοχλους σιδηρους συγκλασω
3 And I will give thee hidden treasures, and the concealed riches of secret places: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord who call thee by thy name, the God of Israel.	3 και δωσω σοι θησαυρους σκοτεινους αποκρυφους αορατους ανοιξω σοι ινα γνως οτι εγω κυριος ο θεος ο καλων το ονομα σου θεος ισραηλ
4 For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have made a likeness of thee, and thou hast not known me.	4 ενεκεν ιακωβ του παιδος μου και ισραηλ του εκλεκτου μου εγω καλεσω σε τω ονοματι σου και προσδεξομαι σε συ δε ουκ εγνως με
5 I am the Lord, and there is none else: there is no God, besides me: I girded thee, and thou hast not known me:	5 οτι εγω κυριος ο θεος και ουκ εστιν ετι πλην εμου θεος και ουκ ηδεις με
6 That they may know who are from the rising of the sun, and they who are from the west, that there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is none else:	6 ινα γνωσιν οι απο ανατολων ηλιου και οι απο δυσμων οτι ουκ εστιν πλην εμου εγω κυριος ο θεος και ουκ εστιν ετι
7 I form the light, and create darkness, I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord that do all these things.	7 εγω ο κατασκευασας φως και ποιησας σκοτος ο ποιων ειρηνην και κτιζων κακα εγω κυριος ο θεος ο ποιων ταυτα παντα
8 Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain the just: let the earth be opened, and bud forth a saviour: and let justice spring up together: I the Lord have created him.	8 ευφρανθητω ο ουρανος ανωθεν και αι νεφελαι ρανατωσαν δικαιοσυνην ανατειλατω η γη ελεος και δικαιοσυνην ανατειλατω αμα εγω ειμι κυριος ο κτισας σε
9 Woe to him that gainsayeth his maker, a sherd of the earthen pots: shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it: What art thou making, and thy work is without hands?	9 ποιον βελτιον κατεσκευασα ως πηλον κεραμεως μη ο αροτριων αροτριασει την γην ολην την ημεραν μη ερει ο πηλος τω κεραμει τι ποιεις οτι ουκ εργαζη ουδε εχεις χειρας
10 Woe to him that saith to his father: Why begettest thou? and to the woman: Why dost thou bring forth?	10 ο λεγων τω πατρι τι γεννησεις και τη μητρι τι ωδινησεις
11 Thus saith the Lord the Holy One of Israel, his maker: Ask me of things to come, concerning my children, and concerning the work of my hands give ye charge to me.	11 οτι ουτως λεγει κυριος ο θεος ο αγιος ισραηλ ο ποιησας τα επερχομενα ερωτησατε με περι των υιων μου και περι των θυγατερων μου και περι των εργων των χειρων μου εντειλασθε μοι
12 I made the earth: and I created man upon it: my hand stretched forth the heavens, and I have commanded all their host.	12 εγω εποιησα γην και ανθρωπον επ' αυτης εγω τη χειρι μου εστερεωσα τον ουρανον εγω πασι τοις αστροις ενετειλαμην
13 I have raised him up to justice, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and let go my captives, not for ransom, nor for presents, saith the Lord the God of hosts.	13 εγω ηγειρα αυτον μετα δικαιοσυνης βασιλεα και πασαι αι οδοι αυτου ευθειαι ουτος οικοδομησει την πολιν μου και την αιχμαλωσιαν του λαου μου επιστρεψει ου μετα λυτρων ουδε μετα δωρων ειπεν κυριος σαβαωθ
14 Thus saith the Lord: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of Sabaim, men of stature shall come over to thee, and shall be thins: they shall walk after thee, they shall go bound with manacles: and they shall worship thee, and shall make supplication to thee: only in thee is God, and there is no God besides thee.	14 ουτως λεγει κυριος σαβαωθ εκοπιασεν αιγυπτος και εμπορια αιθιοπων και οι σεβωιν ανδρες υψηλοι επι σε διαβησονται και σοι εσονται δουλοι και οπισω σου ακολουθησουσιν δεδεμενοι χειροπεδαις και προσκυνησουσιν σοι και εν σοι προσευξονται οτι εν σοι ο θεος εστιν και ερουσιν ουκ εστιν θεος πλην σου
15 Verily thou art a hidden God, the God of Israel the saviour.	15 συ γαρ ει θεος και ουκ ηδειμεν ο θεος του ισραηλ σωτηρ
16 They are all confounded and ashamed: the forgers of errors are gone together into confusion.	16 αισχυνθησονται και εντραπησονται παντες οι αντικειμενοι αυτω και πορευσονται εν αισχυνη εγκαινιζεσθε προς με νησοι
17 Israel is saved in the Lord with as eternal salvation: you shall not be confounded, and you shall not be ashamed for ever and ever.	17 ισραηλ σωζεται υπο κυριου σωτηριαν αιωνιον ουκ αισχυνθησονται ουδε μη εντραπωσιν εως του αιωνος
18 For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens, God himself that formed the earth, and made it, the very maker thereof: he did not create it in vain: he formed it to be inhabited. I am the Lord, and there is no other.	18 ουτως λεγει κυριος ο ποιησας τον ουρανον ουτος ο θεος ο καταδειξας την γην και ποιησας αυτην αυτος διωρισεν αυτην ουκ εις κενον εποιησεν αυτην αλλα κατοικεισθαι εγω ειμι και ουκ εστιν ετι
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I have not said to the seed of Jacob: Seek me in vain. I am the Lord that speak justice, that declare right things.	19 ουκ εν κρυφη λελαληκα ουδε εν τοπω γης σκοτεινω ουκ ειπα τω σπερματι ιακωβ ματαιον ζητησατε εγω ειμι εγω ειμι κυριος λαλων δικαιοσυνην και αναγγελλων αληθειαν
20 Assemble yourselves, and come, and draw near together, ye that are saved of the Gentiles: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven work, and pray to a god that cannot save.	20 συναχθητε και ηκετε βουλευσασθε αμα οι σωζομενοι απο των εθνων ουκ εγνωσαν οι αιροντες το ξυλον γλυμμα αυτων και προσευχομενοι ως προς θεους οι ου σωζουσιν
21 Tell ye, and come, and consult together: who hath declared this from the beginning, who hath foretold this from that time? Have not I the Lord, and there is no God else besides me? A just God and a saviour, there is none besides me.	21 ει αναγγελουσιν εγγισατωσαν ινα γνωσιν αμα τις ακουστα εποιησεν ταυτα απ' αρχης τοτε ανηγγελη υμιν εγω ο θεος και ουκ εστιν αλλος πλην εμου δικαιος και σωτηρ ουκ εστιν παρεξ εμου
22 Be converted to me, and you shall be saved, all ye ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is no other.	22 επιστραφητε προς με και σωθησεσθε οι απ' εσχατου της γης εγω ειμι ο θεος και ουκ εστιν αλλος
23 I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, and shall not return:	23 κατ' εμαυτου ομνυω η μην εξελευσεται εκ του στοματος μου δικαιοσυνη οι λογοι μου ουκ αποστραφησονται οτι εμοι καμψει παν γονυ και εξομολογησεται πασα γλωσσα τω θεω
24 For every knee shall be bowed to me, and every tongue shall swear.	24 λεγων δικαιοσυνη και δοξα προς αυτον ηξουσιν και αισχυνθησονται παντες οι αφοριζοντες εαυτους
25 Therefore shall he say: In the Lord are my justices and empire: they shall come to him, and all that resist him shall be confounded.	25 απο κυριου δικαιωθησονται και εν τω θεω ενδοξασθησονται παν το σπερμα των υιων ισραηλ
26 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified and praised.
