LXXKING JAMES BIBLE
1 και εγενετο εν ετει τριτω τω ωσηε υιω ηλα βασιλει ισραηλ εβασιλευσεν εζεκιας υιος αχαζ βασιλεως ιουδα1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.
2 υιος εικοσι και πεντε ετων ην εν τω βασιλευειν αυτον και εικοσι και εννεα ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ και ονομα τη μητρι αυτου αβου θυγατηρ ζαχαριου2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah.
3 και εποιησεν το ευθες εν οφθαλμοις κυριου κατα παντα οσα εποιησεν δαυιδ ο πατηρ αυτου3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.
4 αυτος εξηρεν τα υψηλα και συνετριψεν πασας τας στηλας και εξωλεθρευσεν τα αλση και τον οφιν τον χαλκουν ον εποιησεν μωυσης οτι εως των ημερων εκεινων ησαν οι υιοι ισραηλ θυμιωντες αυτω και εκαλεσεν αυτον νεεσθαν4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
5 εν κυριω θεω ισραηλ ηλπισεν και μετ' αυτον ουκ εγενηθη ομοιος αυτω εν βασιλευσιν ιουδα και εν τοις γενομενοις εμπροσθεν αυτου5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.
6 και εκολληθη τω κυριω ουκ απεστη οπισθεν αυτου και εφυλαξεν τας εντολας αυτου οσας ενετειλατο μωυση6 For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.
7 και ην κυριος μετ' αυτου εν πασιν οις εποιει συνηκεν και ηθετησεν εν τω βασιλει ασσυριων και ουκ εδουλευσεν αυτω7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
8 αυτος επαταξεν τους αλλοφυλους εως γαζης και εως οριου αυτης απο πυργου φυλασσοντων και εως πολεως οχυρας8 He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
9 και εγενετο εν τω ετει τω τεταρτω βασιλει εζεκια αυτος ενιαυτος ο εβδομος τω ωσηε υιω ηλα βασιλει ισραηλ ανεβη σαλαμανασσαρ βασιλευς ασσυριων επι σαμαρειαν και επολιορκει επ' αυτην9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
10 και κατελαβετο αυτην απο τελους τριων ετων εν ετει εκτω τω εζεκια αυτος ενιαυτος ενατος τω ωσηε βασιλει ισραηλ και συνελημφθη σαμαρεια10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.
11 και απωκισεν βασιλευς ασσυριων την σαμαρειαν εις ασσυριους και εθηκεν αυτους εν αλαε και εν αβωρ ποταμω γωζαν και ορη μηδων11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes:
12 ανθ' ων οτι ουκ ηκουσαν της φωνης κυριου θεου αυτων και παρεβησαν την διαθηκην αυτου παντα οσα ενετειλατο μωυσης ο δουλος κυριου και ουκ ηκουσαν και ουκ εποιησαν12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them.
13 και τω τεσσαρεσκαιδεκατω ετει βασιλει εζεκιου ανεβη σενναχηριμ βασιλευς ασσυριων επι τας πολεις ιουδα τας οχυρας και συνελαβεν αυτας13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them.
14 και απεστειλεν εζεκιας βασιλευς ιουδα αγγελους προς βασιλεα ασσυριων εις λαχις λεγων ημαρτηκα αποστραφητι απ' εμου ο εαν επιθης επ' εμε βαστασω και επεθηκεν ο βασιλευς ασσυριων επι εζεκιαν βασιλεα ιουδα τριακοσια ταλαντα αργυριου και τριακοντα ταλαντα χρυσιου14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
15 και εδωκεν εζεκιας παν το αργυριον το ευρεθεν εν οικω κυριου και εν θησαυροις οικου του βασιλεως15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house.
16 εν τω καιρω εκεινω συνεκοψεν εζεκιας τας θυρας ναου κυριου και τα εστηριγμενα α εχρυσωσεν εζεκιας βασιλευς ιουδα και εδωκεν αυτα βασιλει ασσυριων16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
17 και απεστειλεν βασιλευς ασσυριων τον θαρθαν και τον ραφις και τον ραψακην εκ λαχις προς τον βασιλεα εζεκιαν εν δυναμει βαρεια επι ιερουσαλημ και ανεβησαν και ηλθον εις ιερουσαλημ και εστησαν εν τω υδραγωγω της κολυμβηθρας της ανω η εστιν εν τη οδω του αγρου του γναφεως17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field.
18 και εβοησαν προς εζεκιαν και εξηλθον προς αυτον ελιακιμ υιος χελκιου ο οικονομος και σομνας ο γραμματευς και ιωας υιος ασαφ ο αναμιμνησκων18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.
19 και ειπεν προς αυτους ραψακης ειπατε δη προς εζεκιαν ταδε λεγει ο βασιλευς ο μεγας βασιλευς ασσυριων τις η πεποιθησις αυτη ην πεποιθας19 And Rab-shakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
20 ειπας πλην λογοι χειλεων βουλη και δυναμις εις πολεμον νυν ουν τινι πεποιθως ηθετησας εν εμοι20 Thou sayest, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
21 νυν ιδου πεποιθας σαυτω επι την ραβδον την καλαμινην την τεθλασμενην ταυτην επ' αιγυπτον ος αν στηριχθη ανηρ επ' αυτην και εισελευσεται εις την χειρα αυτου και τρησει αυτην ουτως φαραω βασιλευς αιγυπτου πασιν τοις πεποιθοσιν επ' αυτον21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharoah king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
22 και οτι ειπας προς με επι κυριον θεον πεποιθαμεν ουχι αυτος ουτος ου απεστησεν εζεκιας τα υψηλα αυτου και τα θυσιαστηρια αυτου και ειπεν τω ιουδα και τη ιερουσαλημ ενωπιον του θυσιαστηριου τουτου προσκυνησετε εν ιερουσαλημ22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
23 και νυν μιχθητε δη τω κυριω μου βασιλει ασσυριων και δωσω σοι δισχιλιους ιππους ει δυνηση δουναι σεαυτω επιβατας επ' αυτους23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
24 και πως αποστρεψεις το προσωπον τοπαρχου ενος των δουλων του κυριου μου των ελαχιστων και ηλπισας σαυτω επ' αιγυπτον εις αρματα και ιππεις24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
25 και νυν μη ανευ κυριου ανεβημεν επι τον τοπον τουτον του διαφθειραι αυτον κυριος ειπεν προς με αναβηθι επι την γην ταυτην και διαφθειρον αυτην25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
26 και ειπεν ελιακιμ υιος χελκιου και σομνας και ιωας προς ραψακην λαλησον δη προς τους παιδας σου συριστι οτι ακουομεν ημεις και ου λαλησεις μεθ' ημων ιουδαιστι και ινα τι λαλεις εν τοις ωσιν του λαου του επι του τειχους26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears of the people that are on the wall.
27 και ειπεν προς αυτους ραψακης μη επι τον κυριον σου και προς σε απεστειλεν με ο κυριος μου λαλησαι τους λογους τουτους ουχι επι τους ανδρας τους καθημενους επι του τειχους του φαγειν την κοπρον αυτων και πιειν το ουρον αυτων μεθ' υμων αμα27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you.
28 και εστη ραψακης και εβοησεν φωνη μεγαλη ιουδαιστι και ελαλησεν και ειπεν ακουσατε τους λογους του μεγαλου βασιλεως ασσυριων28 Then Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:
29 ταδε λεγει ο βασιλευς μη επαιρετω υμας εζεκιας λογοις οτι ου μη δυνηται υμας εξελεσθαι εκ χειρος μου29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand:
30 και μη επελπιζετω υμας εζεκιας προς κυριον λεγων εξαιρουμενος εξελειται ημας κυριος ου μη παραδοθη η πολις αυτη εν χειρι βασιλεως ασσυριων30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
31 μη ακουετε εζεκιου οτι ταδε λεγει ο βασιλευς ασσυριων ποιησατε μετ' εμου ευλογιαν και εξελθατε προς με και πιεται ανηρ την αμπελον αυτου και ανηρ την συκην αυτου φαγεται και πιεται υδωρ του λακκου αυτου31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:
32 εως ελθω και λαβω υμας εις γην ως γη υμων γη σιτου και οινου και αρτου και αμπελωνων γη ελαιας ελαιου και μελιτος και ζησετε και ου μη αποθανητε και μη ακουετε εζεκιου οτι απατα υμας λεγων κυριος ρυσεται ημας32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us.
33 μη ρυομενοι ερρυσαντο οι θεοι των εθνων εκαστος την εαυτου χωραν εκ χειρος βασιλεως ασσυριων33 Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
34 που εστιν ο θεος αιμαθ και αρφαδ που εστιν ο θεος σεπφαρουαιν και οτι εξειλαντο σαμαρειαν εκ χειρος μου34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand?
35 τις εν πασιν τοις θεοις των γαιων οι εξειλαντο τας γας αυτων εκ χειρος μου οτι εξελειται κυριος την ιερουσαλημ εκ χειρος μου35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand?
36 και εκωφευσαν και ουκ απεκριθησαν αυτω λογον οτι εντολη του βασιλεως λεγων ουκ αποκριθησεσθε αυτω36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
37 και εισηλθεν ελιακιμ υιος χελκιου ο οικονομος και σομνας ο γραμματευς και ιωας υιος ασαφ ο αναμιμνησκων προς εζεκιαν διερρηχοτες τα ιματια και ανηγγειλαν αυτω τους λογους ραψακου37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
