Numbers 22

KING JAMES BIBLE	LXX
1 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.	1 και απαραντες οι υιοι ισραηλ παρενεβαλον επι δυσμων μωαβ παρα τον ιορδανην κατα ιεριχω
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.	2 και ιδων βαλακ υιος σεπφωρ παντα οσα εποιησεν ισραηλ τω αμορραιω
3 And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.	3 και εφοβηθη μωαβ τον λαον σφοδρα οτι πολλοι ησαν και προσωχθισεν μωαβ απο προσωπου υιων ισραηλ
4 And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall this company lick up all that are round about us, as the ox licketh up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.	4 και ειπεν μωαβ τη γερουσια μαδιαμ νυν εκλειξει η συναγωγη αυτη παντας τους κυκλω ημων ως εκλειξαι ο μοσχος τα χλωρα εκ του πεδιου και βαλακ υιος σεπφωρ βασιλευς μωαβ ην κατα τον καιρον εκεινον
5 He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the earth, and they abide over against me:	5 και απεστειλεν πρεσβεις προς βαλααμ υιον βεωρ φαθουρα ο εστιν επι του ποταμου γης υιων λαου αυτου καλεσαι αυτον λεγων ιδου λαος εξεληλυθεν εξ αιγυπτου και ιδου κατεκαλυψεν την οψιν της γης και ουτος εγκαθηται εχομενος μου
6 Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.	6 και νυν δευρο αρασαι μοι τον λαον τουτον οτι ισχυει ουτος η ημεις εαν δυνωμεθα παταξαι εξ αυτων και εκβαλω αυτους εκ της γης οτι οιδα ους εαν ευλογησης συ ευλογηνται και ους εαν καταραση συ κεκατηρανται
7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand; and they came unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak.	7 και επορευθη η γερουσια μωαβ και η γερουσια μαδιαμ και τα μαντεια εν ταις χερσιν αυτων και ηλθον προς βαλααμ και ειπαν αυτω τα ρηματα βαλακ
8 And he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the LORD shall speak unto me: and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.	8 και ειπεν προς αυτους καταλυσατε αυτου την νυκτα και αποκριθησομαι υμιν πραγματα α εαν λαληση κυριος προς με και κατεμειναν οι αρχοντες μωαβ παρα βαλααμ
9 And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee?	9 και ηλθεν ο θεος προς βαλααμ και ειπεν αυτω τι οι ανθρωποι ουτοι παρα σοι
10 And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me, saying,	10 και ειπεν βαλααμ προς τον θεον βαλακ υιος σεπφωρ βασιλευς μωαβ απεστειλεν αυτους προς με λεγων
11 Behold, there is a people come out of Egypt, which covereth the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out.	11 ιδου λαος εξεληλυθεν εξ αιγυπτου και ιδου κεκαλυφεν την οψιν της γης και ουτος εγκαθηται εχομενος μου και νυν δευρο αρασαι μοι αυτον ει αρα δυνησομαι παταξαι αυτον και εκβαλω αυτον απο της γης
12 And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed.	12 και ειπεν ο θεος προς βαλααμ ου πορευση μετ' αυτων ουδε καταραση τον λαον εστιν γαρ ευλογημενος
13 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak, Get you into your land: for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you.	13 και αναστας βαλααμ το πρωι ειπεν τοις αρχουσιν βαλακ αποτρεχετε προς τον κυριον υμων ουκ αφιησιν με ο θεος πορευεσθαι μεθ' υμων
14 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.	14 και ανασταντες οι αρχοντες μωαβ ηλθον προς βαλακ και ειπαν ου θελει βαλααμ πορευθηναι μεθ' ημων
15 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.	15 και προσεθετο βαλακ ετι αποστειλαι αρχοντας πλειους και εντιμοτερους τουτων
16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me:	16 και ηλθον προς βαλααμ και λεγουσιν αυτω ταδε λεγει βαλακ ο του σεπφωρ αξιω σε μη οκνησης ελθειν προς με
17 For I will promote thee unto very great honour, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.	17 εντιμως γαρ τιμησω σε και οσα εαν ειπης ποιησω σοι και δευρο επικαταρασαι μοι τον λαον τουτον
18 And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more.	18 και απεκριθη βαλααμ και ειπεν τοις αρχουσιν βαλακ εαν δω μοι βαλακ πληρη τον οικον αυτου αργυριου και χρυσιου ου δυνησομαι παραβηναι το ρημα κυριου του θεου ποιησαι αυτο μικρον η μεγα εν τη διανοια μου
19 Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will say unto me more.	19 και νυν υπομεινατε αυτου και υμεις την νυκτα ταυτην και γνωσομαι τι προσθησει κυριος λαλησαι προς με
20 And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, If the men come to call thee, rise up, and go with them; but yet the word which I shall say unto thee, that shalt thou do.	20 και ηλθεν ο θεος προς βαλααμ νυκτος και ειπεν αυτω ει καλεσαι σε παρεισιν οι ανθρωποι ουτοι αναστας ακολουθησον αυτοις αλλα το ρημα ο αν λαλησω προς σε τουτο ποιησεις
21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.	21 και αναστας βαλααμ το πρωι επεσαξεν την ονον αυτου και επορευθη μετα των αρχοντων μωαβ
22 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.	22 και ωργισθη θυμω ο θεος οτι επορευθη αυτος και ανεστη ο αγγελος του θεου ενδιαβαλλειν αυτον και αυτος επιβεβηκει επι της ονου αυτου και δυο παιδες αυτου μετ' αυτου
23 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.	23 και ιδουσα η ονος τον αγγελον του θεου ανθεστηκοτα εν τη οδω και την ρομφαιαν εσπασμενην εν τη χειρι αυτου και εξεκλινεν η ονος εκ της οδου και επορευετο εις το πεδιον και επαταξεν την ονον τη ραβδω του ευθυναι αυτην εν τη οδω
24 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.	24 και εστη ο αγγελος του θεου εν ταις αυλαξιν των αμπελων φραγμος εντευθεν και φραγμος εντευθεν
25 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again.	25 και ιδουσα η ονος τον αγγελον του θεου προσεθλιψεν εαυτην προς τον τοιχον και απεθλιψεν τον ποδα βαλααμ και προσεθετο ετι μαστιξαι αυτην
26 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.	26 και προσεθετο ο αγγελος του θεου και απελθων υπεστη εν τοπω στενω εις ον ουκ ην εκκλιναι δεξιαν ουδε αριστεραν
27 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.	27 και ιδουσα η ονος τον αγγελον του θεου συνεκαθισεν υποκατω βαλααμ και εθυμωθη βαλααμ και ετυπτεν την ονον τη ραβδω
28 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?	28 και ηνοιξεν ο θεος το στομα της ονου και λεγει τω βαλααμ τι εποιησα σοι οτι πεπαικας με τουτο τριτον
29 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee.	29 και ειπεν βαλααμ τη ονω οτι εμπεπαιχας μοι και ει ειχον μαχαιραν εν τη χειρι μου ηδη αν εξεκεντησα σε
30 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.	30 και λεγει η ονος τω βαλααμ ουκ εγω η ονος σου εφ' ης επεβαινες απο νεοτητος σου εως της σημερον ημερας μη υπερορασει υπεριδουσα εποιησα σοι ουτως ο δε ειπεν ουχι
31 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.	31 απεκαλυψεν δε ο θεος τους οφθαλμους βαλααμ και ορα τον αγγελον κυριου ανθεστηκοτα εν τη οδω και την μαχαιραν εσπασμενην εν τη χειρι αυτου και κυψας προσεκυνησεν τω προσωπω αυτου
32 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me:	32 και ειπεν αυτω ο αγγελος του θεου δια τι επαταξας την ονον σου τουτο τριτον και ιδου εγω εξηλθον εις διαβολην σου οτι ουκ αστεια η οδος σου εναντιον μου
33 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive.	33 και ιδουσα με η ονος εξεκλινεν απ' εμου τριτον τουτο και ει μη εξεκλινεν νυν ουν σε μεν απεκτεινα εκεινην δε περιεποιησαμην
34 And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back again.	34 και ειπεν βαλααμ τω αγγελω κυριου ημαρτηκα ου γαρ ηπισταμην οτι συ μοι ανθεστηκας εν τη οδω εις συναντησιν και νυν ει μη σοι αρεσκει αποστραφησομαι
35 And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.	35 και ειπεν ο αγγελος του θεου προς βαλααμ συμπορευθητι μετα των ανθρωπων πλην το ρημα ο εαν ειπω προς σε τουτο φυλαξη λαλησαι και επορευθη βαλααμ μετα των αρχοντων βαλακ
36 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast.	36 και ακουσας βαλακ οτι ηκει βαλααμ εξηλθεν εις συναντησιν αυτω εις πολιν μωαβ η εστιν επι των οριων αρνων ο εστιν εκ μερους των οριων
37 And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour?	37 και ειπεν βαλακ προς βαλααμ ουχι απεστειλα προς σε καλεσαι σε δια τι ουκ ηρχου προς με οντως ου δυνησομαι τιμησαι σε
38 And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.	38 και ειπεν βαλααμ προς βαλακ ιδου ηκω προς σε νυν δυνατος εσομαι λαλησαι τι το ρημα ο εαν βαλη ο θεος εις το στομα μου τουτο λαλησω
39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjath-huzoth.	39 και επορευθη βαλααμ μετα βαλακ και ηλθον εις πολεις επαυλεων
40 And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.	40 και εθυσεν βαλακ προβατα και μοσχους και απεστειλεν τω βαλααμ και τοις αρχουσι τοις μετ' αυτου
41 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that thence he might see the utmost part of the people.	41 και εγενηθη πρωι και παραλαβων βαλακ τον βαλααμ ανεβιβασεν αυτον επι την στηλην του βααλ και εδειξεν αυτω εκειθεν μερος τι του λαου
