1 εν τω ετει τω δεκατω εν τω δεκατω μηνι μια του μηνος εγενετο λογος κυριου προς με λεγων | 1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the eleventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying: |
2 υιε ανθρωπου στηρισον το προσωπον σου επι φαραω βασιλεα αιγυπτου και προφητευσον επ' αυτον και επ' αιγυπτον ολην | 2 “Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall prophesy about him and about all of Egypt. |
3 και ειπον ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω επι φαραω τον δρακοντα τον μεγαν τον εγκαθημενον εν μεσω ποταμων αυτου τον λεγοντα εμοι εισιν οι ποταμοι και εγω εποιησα αυτους | 3 Speak, and you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, you great dragon, who rests in the midst of your rivers. And you say: ‘Mine is the river, and I have made myself.’ |
4 και εγω δωσω παγιδας εις τας σιαγονας σου και προσκολλησω τους ιχθυς του ποταμου σου προς τας πτερυγας σου και αναξω σε εκ μεσου του ποταμου σου και παντας τους ιχθυας του ποταμου σου | 4 But I will place a bridle in your jaws. And I will adhere the fish of your rivers to your scales. And I will draw you out of the midst of your rivers, and all your fish will adhere to your scales. |
5 και καταβαλω σε εν ταχει και παντας τους ιχθυας του ποταμου σου επι προσωπον του πεδιου πεση και ου μη συναχθης και ου μη περισταλης τοις θηριοις της γης και τοις πετεινοις του ουρανου δεδωκα σε εις καταβρωμα | 5 And I will cast you into the desert, with all the fish of your river. You will fall upon the surface of the earth; you will not be taken up, nor gathered together. I have given you to the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the air, to be devoured. |
6 και γνωσονται παντες οι κατοικουντες αιγυπτον οτι εγω ειμι κυριος ανθ' ων εγενηθης ραβδος καλαμινη τω οικω ισραηλ | 6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord. For you have been a staff made of reed to the house of Israel. |
7 οτε επελαβοντο σου τη χειρι αυτων εθλασθης και οτε επεκρατησεν επ' αυτους πασα χειρ και οτε επανεπαυσαντο επι σε συνετριβης και συνεκλασας αυτων πασαν οσφυν | 7 When they took hold of you with the hand, you broke, and so you wounded all of their shoulders. And when they leaned on you, you shattered, and so you injured all of their lower backs. |
8 δια τουτο ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω επαγω επι σε ρομφαιαν και απολω ανθρωπους απο σου και κτηνη | 8 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead the sword over you, and I will destroy both man and beast from among you. |
9 και εσται η γη αιγυπτου απωλεια και ερημος και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος αντι του λεγειν σε οι ποταμοι εμοι εισιν και εγω εποιησα αυτους | 9 And the land of Egypt will be a desert and a wilderness. And they shall know that I am the Lord. For you have said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it.’ |
10 δια τουτο ιδου εγω επι σε και επι παντας τους ποταμους σου και δωσω γην αιγυπτου εις ερημον και ρομφαιαν και απωλειαν απο μαγδωλου και συηνης και εως οριων αιθιοπων | 10 Therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. And I will make the land of Egypt into a wilderness, destroyed by the sword from the tower of Syene all the way to the borders of Ethiopia. |
11 ου μη διελθη εν αυτη πους ανθρωπου και πους κτηνους ου μη διελθη αυτην και ου κατοικηθησεται τεσσαρακοντα ετη | 11 The foot of man will not pass through it, and the foot of cattle will not walk in it. And it will be uninhabited for forty years. |
12 και δωσω την γην αυτης απωλειαν εν μεσω γης ηρημωμενης και αι πολεις αυτης εν μεσω πολεων ηρημωμενων εσονται τεσσαρακοντα ετη και διασπερω αιγυπτον εν τοις εθνεσιν και λικμησω αυτους εις τας χωρας | 12 And I will set the land of Egypt in desolation, in the midst of desolate lands, and its cities in the midst of overturned cites. And they will be desolate for forty years. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and I will disperse them among the lands. |
13 ταδε λεγει κυριος μετα τεσσαρακοντα ετη συναξω τους αιγυπτιους απο των εθνων ου διεσκορπισθησαν εκει | 13 For thus says the Lord God: After the end of forty years, I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples among whom they had been scattered. |
14 και αποστρεψω την αιχμαλωσιαν των αιγυπτιων και κατοικισω αυτους εν γη παθουρης εν τη γη οθεν ελημφθησαν και εσται αρχη ταπεινη | 14 And I will lead back the captivity of Egypt, and I will collect them in the land of Pathros, in the land of their nativity. And in that place, they will be a lowly kingdom. |
15 παρα πασας τας αρχας ου μη υψωθη ετι επι τα εθνη και ολιγοστους αυτους ποιησω του μη ειναι αυτους πλειονας εν τοις εθνεσιν | 15 It will be the lowest among the other kingdoms, and it will no longer be exalted above the nations. And I will diminish them, lest they rule over the Gentiles. |
16 και ουκετι εσονται τω οικω ισραηλ εις ελπιδα αναμιμνησκουσαν ανομιαν εν τω αυτους ακολουθησαι οπισω αυτων και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος | 16 And they will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, teaching iniquity, so that they may flee and follow them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.” |
17 και εγενετο εν τω εβδομω και εικοστω ετει μια του μηνος του πρωτου εγενετο λογος κυριου προς με λεγων | 17 And it happened that, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying: |
18 υιε ανθρωπου ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλευς βαβυλωνος κατεδουλωσατο αυτου την δυναμιν δουλεια μεγαλη επι τυρου πασα κεφαλη φαλακρα και πας ωμος μαδων και μισθος ουκ εγενηθη αυτω και τη δυναμει αυτου επι τυρου και της δουλειας ης εδουλευσαν επ' αυτην | 18 “Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has caused his army to serve with great servility against Tyre. Every head was shaven, and every shoulder was stripped of hair. And wages have not been paid to him, nor to his army, for Tyre, for the service by which he served for me against it. |
19 ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ιδου διδωμι τω ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλει βαβυλωνος γην αιγυπτου και προνομευσει την προνομην αυτης και σκυλευσει τα σκυλα αυτης και εσται μισθος τη δυναμει αυτου | 19 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will station Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, in the land of Egypt. And he will take its multitude, and he will prey upon its profits, and he will plunder its spoils. And this shall be the wages for his army |
20 αντι της λειτουργιας αυτου ης εδουλευσεν επι τυρον δεδωκα αυτω γην αιγυπτου ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος | 20 and for the work by which he has served against it. I have given to him the land of Egypt, because he has labored for me, says the Lord God. |
21 εν τη ημερα εκεινη ανατελει κερας παντι τω οικω ισραηλ και σοι δωσω στομα ανεωγμενον εν μεσω αυτων και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος | 21 In that day, a horn will spring forth for the house of Israel, and I will give to you an open mouth in their midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.” |
