Ezekiel 36

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 “But as for you, son of man, prophesy over the mountains of Israel, and you shall say: O mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord.	1 και συ υιε ανθρωπου προφητευσον επι τα ορη ισραηλ και ειπον τοις ορεσιν του ισραηλ ακουσατε λογον κυριου
2 Thus says the Lord God: Because the enemy has said about you: ‘It is well! The everlasting heights have been given to us as an inheritance!’	2 ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ανθ' ων ειπεν ο εχθρος εφ' υμας ευγε ερημα αιωνια εις κατασχεσιν ημιν εγενηθη
3 because of this, prophesy and say: Thus says the Lord God: Because you have been made desolate, and you have been trampled on every side, and you have been made into an inheritance for the remainder of the nations, and because you rose up, over the tip of the tongue and over the shame of the people,	3 δια τουτο προφητευσον και ειπον ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος αντι του ατιμασθηναι υμας και μισηθηναι υμας υπο των κυκλω υμων του ειναι υμας εις κατασχεσιν τοις καταλοιποις εθνεσιν και ανεβητε λαλημα γλωσση και εις ονειδισμα εθνεσιν
4 because of this, O mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord God. Thus says the Lord God to the mountains, and to the hills, to the torrents, and to the valleys, and to the deserts, and to the ruins, and to the forsaken cities, which have been depopulated and ridiculed by the remainder of the nations all around:	4 δια τουτο ορη ισραηλ ακουσατε λογον κυριου ταδε λεγει κυριος τοις ορεσιν και τοις βουνοις και ταις φαραγξιν και τοις χειμαρροις και τοις εξηρημωμενοις και ηφανισμενοις και ταις πολεσιν ταις εγκαταλελειμμεναις αι εγενοντο εις προνομην και εις καταπατημα τοις καταλειφθεισιν εθνεσιν περικυκλω
5 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: In the fire of my zeal, I have spoken about the remainder of the nations, and about all of Idumea, who have given my land to themselves, joyfully, as an inheritance, and with all the heart and mind, and who have cast it out, so that they may lay waste to it.	5 δια τουτο ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ει μην εν πυρι θυμου μου ελαλησα επι τα λοιπα εθνη και επι την ιδουμαιαν πασαν οτι εδωκαν την γην μου εαυτοις εις κατασχεσιν μετ' ευφροσυνης ατιμασαντες ψυχας του αφανισαι εν προνομη
6 Therefore, prophesy over the soil of Israel, and you shall say to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ridges, and to the valleys: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I have spoken in my zeal and in my fury, because you have endured the shame of the Gentiles.	6 δια τουτο προφητευσον επι την γην του ισραηλ και ειπον τοις ορεσιν και τοις βουνοις και ταις φαραγξιν και ταις ναπαις ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω εν τω ζηλω μου και εν τω θυμω μου ελαλησα αντι του ονειδισμους εθνων ενεγκαι υμας
7 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: I have lifted up my hand, so that the Gentiles, who are all around you, will themselves bear their shame.	7 δια τουτο εγω αρω την χειρα μου επι τα εθνη τα περικυκλω υμων ουτοι την ατιμιαν αυτων λημψονται
8 But as for you, O mountains of Israel, spring forth your branches, and bear your fruit, to my people Israel. For they are close to their advent.	8 υμων δε ορη ισραηλ την σταφυλην και τον καρπον υμων καταφαγεται ο λαος μου οτι εγγιζουσιν του ελθειν
9 For behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you will be plowed, and you will receive seed.	9 οτι ιδου εγω εφ' υμας και επιβλεψω εφ' υμας και κατεργασθησεσθε και σπαρησεσθε
10 And I will multiply men among you and among all the house of Israel. And the cities shall be inhabited, and the ruinous places shall be restored.	10 και πληθυνω εφ' υμας ανθρωπους παν οικον ισραηλ εις τελος και κατοικηθησονται αι πολεις και η ηρημωμενη οικοδομηθησεται
11 And I will fill you again with men and with cattle. And they will be multiplied, and they will increase. And I will cause you to live as from the beginning, and I will give you even greater gifts than those you had from the start. And you shall know that I am the Lord.	11 και πληθυνω εφ' υμας ανθρωπους και κτηνη και κατοικιω υμας ως το εν αρχη υμων και ευ ποιησω υμας ωσπερ τα εμπροσθεν υμων και γνωσεσθε οτι εγω ειμι κυριος
12 And I will lead men over you, over my people Israel, and they will possess you as an inheritance. And you shall be to them as an inheritance. And you shall no longer be permitted to be without them.	12 και γεννησω εφ' υμας ανθρωπους τον λαον μου ισραηλ και κληρονομησουσιν υμας και εσεσθε αυτοις εις κατασχεσιν και ου μη προστεθητε ετι ατεκνωθηναι απ' αυτων
13 Thus says the Lord God: Because they are saying about you, ‘You are a woman who devours men, and you are strangling your own nation,’	13 ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ανθ' ων ειπαν σοι κατεσθουσα ανθρωπους ει και ητεκνωμενη υπο του εθνους σου εγενου
14 because of this, you shall no longer consume men, and you shall no longer harm your own nation, says the Lord God.	14 δια τουτο ανθρωπους ουκετι φαγεσαι και το εθνος σου ουκ ατεκνωσεις ετι λεγει κυριος κυριος
15 Neither will I permit men to discover in you the shame of the Gentiles any more. And you shall never again bear the reproach of the peoples. And you shall not send your people away any more, says the Lord God.”	15 και ουκ ακουσθησεται ουκετι εφ' υμας ατιμια εθνων και ονειδισμους λαων ου μη ανενεγκητε λεγει κυριος κυριος
16 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:	16 και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς με λεγων
17 “Son of man, the house of Israel lived on their own soil, and they defiled it with their ways and with their intentions. Their way, in my sight, became like the uncleanness of a menstruous woman.	17 υιε ανθρωπου οικος ισραηλ κατωκησεν επι της γης αυτων και εμιαναν αυτην εν τη οδω αυτων και εν τοις ειδωλοις αυτων και εν ταις ακαθαρσιαις αυτων κατα την ακαθαρσιαν της αποκαθημενης εγενηθη η οδος αυτων προ προσωπου μου
18 And so I poured out my indignation upon them, because of the blood which they shed upon the land, and because they defiled it with their idols.	18 και εξεχεα τον θυμον μου επ' αυτους
19 And I dispersed them among the Gentiles, and they have been scattered among the lands. I have judged them according to their ways and their plans.	19 και διεσπειρα αυτους εις τα εθνη και ελικμησα αυτους εις τας χωρας κατα την οδον αυτων και κατα την αμαρτιαν αυτων εκρινα αυτους
20 And when they walked among the Gentiles, to whom they had entered, they defiled my holy name, though it was being said about them: ‘This is the people of the Lord,’ and ‘They went forth from his land.’	20 και εισηλθοσαν εις τα εθνη ου εισηλθοσαν εκει και εβεβηλωσαν το ονομα μου το αγιον εν τω λεγεσθαι αυτους λαος κυριου ουτοι και εκ της γης αυτου εξεληλυθασιν
21 But I have spared my holy name, which the house of Israel has defiled among the Gentiles, to whom they entered.	21 και εφεισαμην αυτων δια το ονομα μου το αγιον ο εβεβηλωσαν οικος ισραηλ εν τοις εθνεσιν ου εισηλθοσαν εκει
22 For this reason, you shall say to the house of Israel: Thus says the Lord God: I will act, not for your sake, O house of Israel, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have defiled among the Gentiles, to whom you entered.	22 δια τουτο ειπον τω οικω ισραηλ ταδε λεγει κυριος ουχ υμιν εγω ποιω οικος ισραηλ αλλ' η δια το ονομα μου το αγιον ο εβεβηλωσατε εν τοις εθνεσιν ου εισηλθετε εκει
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was defiled among the Gentiles, which you have defiled in their midst. So may the Gentiles know that I am the Lord, says the Lord of hosts, when I will have been sanctified in you, before their eyes.	23 και αγιασω το ονομα μου το μεγα το βεβηλωθεν εν τοις εθνεσιν ο εβεβηλωσατε εν μεσω αυτων και γνωσονται τα εθνη οτι εγω ειμι κυριος εν τω αγιασθηναι με εν υμιν κατ' οφθαλμους αυτων
24 Certainly, I will take you away from the Gentiles, and I will gather you together from all the lands, and I will lead you into your own land.	24 και λημψομαι υμας εκ των εθνων και αθροισω υμας εκ πασων των γαιων και εισαξω υμας εις την γην υμων
25 And I will pour clean water over you, and you shall be cleansed from all your filth, and I will cleanse you from all your idols.	25 και ρανω εφ' υμας υδωρ καθαρον και καθαρισθησεσθε απο πασων των ακαθαρσιων υμων και απο παντων των ειδωλων υμων και καθαριω υμας
26 And I will give to you a new heart, and I will place in you a new spirit. And I will take away the heart of stone from your body, and I will give to you a heart of flesh.	26 και δωσω υμιν καρδιαν καινην και πνευμα καινον δωσω εν υμιν και αφελω την καρδιαν την λιθινην εκ της σαρκος υμων και δωσω υμιν καρδιαν σαρκινην
27 And I will place my Spirit in your midst. And I will act so that you may walk in my precepts and keep my judgments, and so that you may fulfill them.	27 και το πνευμα μου δωσω εν υμιν και ποιησω ινα εν τοις δικαιωμασιν μου πορευησθε και τα κριματα μου φυλαξησθε και ποιησητε
28 And you shall live in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you shall be my people, and I will be your God.	28 και κατοικησετε επι της γης ης εδωκα τοις πατρασιν υμων και εσεσθε μοι εις λαον καγω εσομαι υμιν εις θεον
29 And I will save you from all your filth. And I will call for grain, and I will multiply it, and I will not impose a famine upon you.	29 και σωσω υμας εκ πασων των ακαθαρσιων υμων και καλεσω τον σιτον και πληθυνω αυτον και ου δωσω εφ' υμας λιμον
30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the produce of the field, so that you may no longer bear the disgrace of famine among the nations.	30 και πληθυνω τον καρπον του ξυλου και τα γενηματα του αγρου οπως μη λαβητε ονειδισμον λιμου εν τοις εθνεσιν
31 And you shall remember your very wicked ways and your intentions, which were not good. And you will be displeased by your own iniquities and your own crimes.	31 και μνησθησεσθε τας οδους υμων τας πονηρας και τα επιτηδευματα υμων τα μη αγαθα και προσοχθιειτε κατα προσωπον αυτων εν ταις ανομιαις υμων και επι τοις βδελυγμασιν υμων
32 It is not for your sakes that I will act, says the Lord God; let this be known to you. Be confounded and ashamed over your own ways, O house of Israel.	32 ου δι' υμας εγω ποιω λεγει κυριος κυριος γνωστον εσται υμιν αισχυνθητε και εντραπητε εκ των οδων υμων οικος ισραηλ
33 Thus says the Lord God: In the day when I will have cleansed you from all your iniquities, and when I will have caused the cities to be inhabited, and when I will have restored the ruinous places,	33 ταδε λεγει κυριος εν ημερα η καθαριω υμας εκ πασων των ανομιων υμων και κατοικιω τας πολεις και οικοδομηθησονται αι ερημοι
34 and when the deserted land will have been cultivated, which previously was desolate to the eyes of all who passed by,	34 και η γη η ηφανισμενη εργασθησεται ανθ' ων οτι ηφανισμενη εγενηθη κατ' οφθαλμους παντος παροδευοντος
35 then they shall say: ‘This uncultivated land has become a garden of delight, and the cities, which were deserted and destitute and overturned, have been settled and fortified.’	35 και ερουσιν η γη εκεινη η ηφανισμενη εγενηθη ως κηπος τρυφης και αι πολεις αι ερημοι και ηφανισμεναι και κατεσκαμμεναι οχυραι εκαθισαν
36 And the Gentiles, those who remain around you, shall know that I, the Lord, have built up what was destroyed, and have planted what was uncultivated. I, the Lord, have spoken and acted.	36 και γνωσονται τα εθνη οσα αν καταλειφθωσιν κυκλω υμων οτι εγω κυριος ωκοδομησα τας καθηρημενας και κατεφυτευσα τας ηφανισμενας εγω κυριος ελαλησα και ποιησω
37 Thus says the Lord God: Even in this time, the house of Israel shall find me, so that I may act for them. I will multiply them like a flock of men,	37 ταδε λεγει κυριος ετι τουτο ζητηθησομαι τω οικω ισραηλ του ποιησαι αυτοις πληθυνω αυτους ως προβατα ανθρωπους
38 like a holy flock, like the flock of Jerusalem in her solemnities. So shall the deserted cities be filled with flocks of men. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”	38 ως προβατα αγια ως προβατα ιερουσαλημ εν ταις εορταις αυτης ουτως εσονται αι πολεις αι ερημοι πληρεις προβατων ανθρωπων και γνωσονται οτι εγω κυριος
