ΤΩΒΙΤ - Tobia - Tobit 3

LXX	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 και λυπηθεις εκλαυσα και προσευξαμην μετ' οδυνης λεγων	1 Then I being grieved did weep, and in my sorrow prayed, saying,
2 δικαιος ει κυριε και παντα τα εργα σου και πασαι αι οδοι σου ελεημοσυναι και αληθεια και κρισιν αληθινην και δικαιαν συ κρινεις εις τον αιωνα	2 O Lord, thou art just, and all thy works and all thy ways are mercy and truth, and thou judgest truly and justly for ever.
3 μνησθητι μου και επιβλεψον επ' εμε μη με εκδικησης ταις αμαρτιαις μου και τοις αγνοημασιν μου και των πατερων μου α ημαρτον ενωπιον σου	3 Remember me, and look on me, punish me not for my sins and ignorances, and the sins of mg fathers, who have sinned before thee:
4 παρηκουσαν γαρ των εντολων σου εδωκας ημας εις διαρπαγην και αιχμαλωσιαν και θανατον και παραβολην ονειδισμου πασιν τοις εθνεσιν εν οις εσκορπισμεθα	4 For they obeyed not thy commandments: wherefore thou hast delivered us for a spoil, and unto captivity, and unto death, and for a proverb of reproach to all the nations among whom we are dispersed.
5 και νυν πολλαι αι κρισεις σου εισιν αληθιναι εξ εμου ποιησαι περι των αμαρτιων μου και των πατερων μου οτι ουκ εποιησαμεν τας εντολας σου ου γαρ επορευθημεν εν αληθεια ενωπιον σου	5 And now thy judgments are many and true: deal with me according to my sins and my fathers': because we have not kept thy commandments, neither have walked in truth before thee.
6 και νυν κατα το αρεστον ενωπιον σου ποιησον μετ' εμου επιταξον αναλαβειν το πνευμα μου οπως απολυθω και γενωμαι γη διοτι λυσιτελει μοι αποθανειν η ζην οτι ονειδισμους ψευδεις ηκουσα και λυπη εστιν πολλη εν εμοι επιταξον απολυθηναι με της αναγκης ηδη εις τον αιωνιον τοπον μη αποστρεψης το προσωπον σου απ' εμου	6 Now therefore deal with me as seemeth best unto thee, and command my spirit to be taken from me, that I may be dissolved, and become earth: for it is profitable for me to die rather than to live, because I have heard false reproaches, and have much sorrow: command therefore that I may now be delivered out of this distress, and go into the everlasting place: turn not thy face away from me.
7 εν τη αυτη ημερα συνεβη τη θυγατρι ραγουηλ σαρρα εν εκβατανοις της μηδιας και ταυτην ονειδισθηναι υπο παιδισκων πατρος αυτης	7 It came to pass the same day, that in Ecbatane a city of Media Sara the daughter of Raguel was also reproached by her father's maids;
8 οτι ην δεδομενη ανδρασιν επτα και ασμοδαυς το πονηρον δαιμονιον απεκτεινεν αυτους πριν η γενεσθαι αυτους μετ' αυτης ως εν γυναιξιν και ειπαν αυτη ου συνιεις αποπνιγουσα σου τους ανδρας ηδη επτα εσχες και ενος αυτων ουκ ωνασθης	8 Because that she had been married to seven husbands, whom Asmodeus the evil spirit had killed, before they had lain with her. Dost thou not know, said they, that thou hast strangled thine husbands? thou hast had already seven husbands, neither wast thou named after any of them.
9 τι ημας μαστιγοις ει απεθαναν βαδιζε μετ' αυτων μη ιδοιμεν σου υιον η θυγατερα εις τον αιωνα	9 Wherefore dost thou beat us for them? if they be dead, go thy ways after them, let us never see of thee either son or daughter.
10 ταυτα ακουσασα ελυπηθη σφοδρα ωστε απαγξασθαι και ειπεν μια μεν ειμι τω πατρι μου εαν ποιησω τουτο ονειδος αυτω εστιν και το γηρας αυτου καταξω μετ' οδυνης εις αδου	10 Whe she heard these things, she was very sorrowful, so that she thought to have strangled herself; and she said, I am the only daughter of my father, and if I do this, it shall be a reproach unto him, and I shall bring his old age with sorrow unto the grave.
11 και εδεηθη προς τη θυριδι και ειπεν ευλογητος ει κυριε ο θεος μου και ευλογητον το ονομα σου το αγιον και εντιμον εις τους αιωνας ευλογησαισαν σε παντα τα εργα σου εις τον αιωνα	11 Then she prayed toward the window, and said, Blessed art thou, O Lord my God, and thine holy and glorious name is blessed and honourable for ever: let all thy works praise thee for ever.
12 και νυν κυριε τους οφθαλμους μου και το προσωπον μου εις σε δεδωκα	12 And now, O Lord, I set I mine eyes and my face toward thee,
13 ειπον απολυσαι με απο της γης και μη ακουσαι με μηκετι ονειδισμον	13 And say, Take me out of the earth, that I may hear no more the reproach.
14 συ γινωσκεις κυριε οτι καθαρα ειμι απο πασης αμαρτιας ανδρος	14 Thou knowest, Lord, that I am pure from all sin with man,
15 και ουκ εμολυνα το ονομα μου ουδε το ονομα του πατρος μου εν τη γη της αιχμαλωσιας μου μονογενης ειμι τω πατρι μου και ουχ υπαρχει αυτω παιδιον ο κληρονομησει αυτον ουδε αδελφος εγγυς ουδε υπαρχων αυτω υιος ινα συντηρησω εμαυτην αυτω γυναικα ηδη απωλοντο μοι επτα ινα τι μοι ζην και ει μη δοκει σοι αποκτειναι με επιταξον επιβλεψαι επ' εμε και ελεησαι με και μηκετι ακουσαι με ονειδισμον	15 And that I never polluted my name, nor the name of my father, in the land of my captivity: I am the only daughter of my father, neither hath he any child to be his heir, neither any near kinsman, nor any son of his alive, to whom I may keep myself for a wife: my seven husbands are already dead; and why should I live? but if it please not thee that I should die, command some regard to be had of me, and pity taken of me, that I hear no more reproach.
16 και εισηκουσθη η προσευχη αμφοτερων ενωπιον της δοξης του μεγαλου ραφαηλ	16 So the prayers of them both were heard before the majesty of the great God.
17 και απεσταλη ιασασθαι τους δυο του τωβιτ λεπισαι τα λευκωματα και σαρραν την του ραγουηλ δουναι τωβια τω υιω τωβιτ γυναικα και δησαι ασμοδαυν το πονηρον δαιμονιον διοτι τωβια επιβαλλει κληρονομησαι αυτην εν αυτω τω καιρω επιστρεψας τωβιτ εισηλθεν εις τον οικον αυτου και σαρρα η του ραγουηλ κατεβη εκ του υπερωου αυτης	17 And Raphael was sent to heal them both, that is, to scale away the whiteness of Tobit's eyes, and to give Sara the daughter of Raguel for a wife to Tobias the son of Tobit; and to bind Asmodeus the evil spirit; because she belonged to Tobias by right of inheritance. The selfsame time came Tobit home, and entered into his house, and Sara the daughter of Raguel came down from her upper chamber.
