Isaiah 31

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 Woe to those who descend into Egypt for assistance, hoping in horses, and putting their trust in four-horse chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are exceedingly strong. And they have not believed in the Holy One of Israel, and they have not sought the Lord.	1 ουαι οι καταβαινοντες εις αιγυπτον επι βοηθειαν οι εφ' ιπποις πεποιθοτες και εφ' αρμασιν εστιν γαρ πολλα και εφ' ιπποις πληθος σφοδρα και ουκ ησαν πεποιθοτες επι τον αγιον του ισραηλ και τον θεον ουκ εξεζητησαν
2 Therefore, being wise, he has permitted harm, and he has not removed his words, and he will rise up against the house of the wicked and against those who assist the workers of iniquity.	2 και αυτος σοφος ηγεν επ' αυτους κακα και ο λογος αυτου ου μη αθετηθη και επαναστησεται επ' οικους ανθρωπων πονηρων και επι την ελπιδα αυτων την ματαιαν
3 Egypt is man, and not God. And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. And so, the Lord will reach down his hand, and the helper will fall, and the one who was being helped will fall, and they will all be consumed together.	3 αιγυπτιον ανθρωπον και ου θεον ιππων σαρκας και ουκ εστιν βοηθεια ο δε κυριος επαξει την χειρα αυτου επ' αυτους και κοπιασουσιν οι βοηθουντες και αμα παντες απολουνται
4 For the Lord says this to me: In the same way that a lion roars, and a young lion is over his prey, and though a multitude of shepherds may meet him, he will not dread their voice, nor be afraid of their number, so will the Lord of hosts descend in order to battle upon mount Zion and upon its hill.	4 οτι ουτως ειπεν μοι κυριος ον τροπον εαν βοηση ο λεων η ο σκυμνος επι τη θηρα η ελαβεν και κεκραξη επ' αυτη εως αν εμπλησθη τα ορη της φωνης αυτου και ηττηθησαν και το πληθος του θυμου επτοηθησαν ουτως καταβησεται κυριος σαβαωθ επιστρατευσαι επι το ορος το σιων επι τα ορη αυτης
5 Like birds flying, so will the Lord of hosts protect Jerusalem, protecting and freeing, passing over and saving.	5 ως ορνεα πετομενα ουτως υπερασπιει κυριος υπερ ιερουσαλημ και εξελειται και περιποιησεται και σωσει
6 Be converted to the same depth that you have drawn away, O sons of Israel.	6 επιστραφητε οι την βαθειαν βουλην βουλευομενοι και ανομον
7 For in that day, a man will cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your hands have made for you unto sin.	7 οτι τη ημερα εκεινη απαρνησονται οι ανθρωποι τα χειροποιητα αυτων τα αργυρα και τα χρυσα α εποιησαν αι χειρες αυτων
8 And Assur will fall by a sword not of man, and a sword not of man will devour him. And he will not flee from the face of the sword, and his young men will be subject to a penalty.	8 και πεσειται ασσουρ ου μαχαιρα ανδρος ουδε μαχαιρα ανθρωπου καταφαγεται αυτον και φευξεται ουκ απο προσωπου μαχαιρας οι δε νεανισκοι εσονται εις ηττημα
9 And his strength will pass away in terror, and his princes will flee in fear. The Lord has said it. His fire is in Zion, and his furnace is at Jerusalem.	9 πετρα γαρ περιλημφθησονται ως χαρακι και ηττηθησονται ο δε φευγων αλωσεται ταδε λεγει κυριος μακαριος ος εχει εν σιων σπερμα και οικειους εν ιερουσαλημ
