Zechariah 7

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, in the fourth day of the ninth month, which is Casleu.	1 και εγενετο εν τω τεταρτω ετει επι δαρειου του βασιλεως εγενετο λογος κυριου προς ζαχαριαν τετραδι του μηνος του ενατου ος εστιν χασελευ
2 When Sarasar, and Rogommelech, and the men that were with him, sent to the house of God, to entreat the face of the Lord:	2 και εξαπεστειλεν εις βαιθηλ σαρασαρ και αρβεσεερ ο βασιλευς και οι ανδρες αυτου του εξιλασασθαι τον κυριον
3 To speak to the priests of the house of the Lord of hosts, and to the prophets, saying: Must I weep in the fifth month, or must I sanctify myself as I have now done for many years?	3 λεγων προς τους ιερεις τους εν τω οικω κυριου παντοκρατορος και προς τους προφητας λεγων εισεληλυθεν ωδε εν τω μηνι τω πεμπτω το αγιασμα καθοτι εποιησα ηδη ικανα ετη
4 And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:	4 και εγενετο λογος κυριου των δυναμεων προς με λεγων
5 Speak to all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying: When you fasted, and mourned in the fifth and the seventh month for these seventy years: did you keep a fast unto me?	5 ειπον προς απαντα τον λαον της γης και προς τους ιερεις λεγων εαν νηστευσητε η κοψησθε εν ταις πεμπταις η εν ταις εβδομαις και ιδου εβδομηκοντα ετη μη νηστειαν νενηστευκατε μοι
6 And when you did eat and drink, did you not eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?	6 και εαν φαγητε η πιητε ουχ υμεις εσθετε και υμεις πινετε
7 Are not these the words which the Lord spoke by the hand of the former prophets, when Jerusalem as yet was inhabited, and was wealthy, both itself and the cities round about it, and there were inhabitants towards the south, and in the plain?	7 ουχ ουτοι οι λογοι εισιν ους ελαλησεν κυριος εν χερσιν των προφητων των εμπροσθεν οτε ην ιερουσαλημ κατοικουμενη και ευθηνουσα και αι πολεις αυτης κυκλοθεν και η ορεινη και η πεδινη κατωκειτο
8 And the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, saying:	8 και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς ζαχαριαν λεγων
9 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: Judge ye true judgment, and shew ye mercy and compassion every man to his brother.	9 ταδε λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ κριμα δικαιον κρινατε και ελεος και οικτιρμον ποιειτε εκαστος προς τον αδελφον αυτου
10 And oppress not the widow, and the fatherless, and the stranger, and the poor: and let not a man devise evil in his heart against his brother.	10 και χηραν και ορφανον και προσηλυτον και πενητα μη καταδυναστευετε και κακιαν εκαστος του αδελφου αυτου μη μνησικακειτω εν ταις καρδιαις υμων
11 But they would not hearken, and they turned away the shoulder to depart: and they stopped their ears, not to hear.	11 και ηπειθησαν του προσεχειν και εδωκαν νωτον παραφρονουντα και τα ωτα αυτων εβαρυναν του μη εισακουειν
12 And they made their heart as the adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts sent in his spirit by the hand of the former prophets: so a great indignation came from the Lord of hosts.	12 και την καρδιαν αυτων εταξαν απειθη του μη εισακουειν του νομου μου και τους λογους ους εξαπεστειλεν κυριος παντοκρατωρ εν πνευματι αυτου εν χερσιν των προφητων των εμπροσθεν και εγενετο οργη μεγαλη παρα κυριου παντοκρατορος
13 And it came to pass that as he spoke, and they heard not: so shall they cry, and I will not hear, saith the Lord of hosts.	13 και εσται ον τροπον ειπεν και ουκ εισηκουσαν αυτου ουτως κεκραξονται και ου μη εισακουσω λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ
14 And I dispersed them throughout all kingdoms, which they know not: and the land was left desolate behind them, so that no man passed through or returned: and they changed the delightful land into a wilderness.	14 και εκβαλω αυτους εις παντα τα εθνη α ουκ εγνωσαν και η γη αφανισθησεται κατοπισθεν αυτων εκ διοδευοντος και εξ αναστρεφοντος και εταξαν γην εκλεκτην εις αφανισμον
