Isaiah 5

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 I will sing to my beloved the canticle of my paternal cousin, about his vineyard. A vineyard was made for my beloved, at the horn in the son of oil.	1 ασω δη τω ηγαπημενω ασμα του αγαπητου τω αμπελωνι μου αμπελων εγενηθη τω ηγαπημενω εν κερατι εν τοπω πιονι
2 And he fenced it in, and he picked the stones out of it, and he planted it with the best vines, and he built a tower in the middle of it, and he set up a winepress within it. And he expected it to produce grapes, but it produced wild vines.	2 και φραγμον περιεθηκα και εχαρακωσα και εφυτευσα αμπελον σωρηχ και ωκοδομησα πυργον εν μεσω αυτου και προληνιον ωρυξα εν αυτω και εμεινα του ποιησαι σταφυλην εποιησεν δε ακανθας
3 Now then, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah: judge between me and my vineyard.	3 και νυν ανθρωπος του ιουδα και οι ενοικουντες εν ιερουσαλημ κρινατε εν εμοι και ανα μεσον του αμπελωνος μου
4 What more should I have done for my vineyard that I did not do for it? Should I not have expected it to produce grapes, though it produced wild vines?	4 τι ποιησω ετι τω αμπελωνι μου και ουκ εποιησα αυτω διοτι εμεινα του ποιησαι σταφυλην εποιησεν δε ακανθας
5 And now, I will reveal to you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its fence, and it will be plundered. I will pull down its wall, and it will be trampled.	5 νυν δε αναγγελω υμιν τι ποιησω τω αμπελωνι μου αφελω τον φραγμον αυτου και εσται εις διαρπαγην και καθελω τον τοιχον αυτου και εσται εις καταπατημα
6 And I will make it desolate. It will not be pruned, and it will not be dug. And briers and thorns will rise up. And I will command the clouds not to rain upon it.	6 και ανησω τον αμπελωνα μου και ου μη τμηθη ουδε μη σκαφη και αναβησεται εις αυτον ως εις χερσον ακανθα και ταις νεφελαις εντελουμαι του μη βρεξαι εις αυτον υετον
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel. And the man of Judah is his delightful seedling. And I expected that he would do judgment, and behold iniquity, and that he would do justice, and behold an outcry.	7 ο γαρ αμπελων κυριου σαβαωθ οικος του ισραηλ εστιν και ανθρωπος του ιουδα νεοφυτον ηγαπημενον εμεινα του ποιησαι κρισιν εποιησεν δε ανομιαν και ου δικαιοσυνην αλλα κραυγην
8 Woe to you who join house to house, and who combine field to field, even to the limits of the place! Do you intend to live alone in the midst of the earth?	8 ουαι οι συναπτοντες οικιαν προς οικιαν και αγρον προς αγρον εγγιζοντες ινα του πλησιον αφελωνται τι μη οικησετε μονοι επι της γης
9 These things are in my ears, says the Lord of hosts. Otherwise, many houses, great and beautiful, will become desolate, without an inhabitant.	9 ηκουσθη γαρ εις τα ωτα κυριου σαβαωθ ταυτα εαν γαρ γενωνται οικιαι πολλαι εις ερημον εσονται μεγαλαι και καλαι και ουκ εσονται οι ενοικουντες εν αυταις
10 Then ten acres of vineyard will produce one small bottle of wine, and thirty measures of seed will produce three measures of grain.	10 ου γαρ εργωνται δεκα ζευγη βοων ποιησει κεραμιον εν και ο σπειρων αρταβας εξ ποιησει μετρα τρια
11 Woe to you who rise up in the morning to pursue drunkenness, and to drink even until evening, so as to be inflamed with wine.	11 ουαι οι εγειρομενοι το πρωι και το σικερα διωκοντες οι μενοντες το οψε ο γαρ οινος αυτους συγκαυσει
12 Harp and lyre and timbrel and pipe, as well as wine, are at your feasts. But you do not respect the work of the Lord, nor do you consider the works of his hands.	12 μετα γαρ κιθαρας και ψαλτηριου και τυμπανων και αυλων τον οινον πινουσιν τα δε εργα κυριου ουκ εμβλεπουσιν και τα εργα των χειρων αυτου ου κατανοουσιν
13 Because of this, my people have been led away as captives, for they did not have knowledge, and their nobles have passed away from famine, and their multitudes have dried up from thirst.	13 τοινυν αιχμαλωτος ο λαος μου εγενηθη δια το μη ειδεναι αυτους τον κυριον και πληθος εγενηθη νεκρων δια λιμον και διψαν υδατος
14 For this reason, Hell has expanded its soul, and has opened its mouth without any limits. And their strong ones, and their people, and their exalted and glorious ones will descend into it.	14 και επλατυνεν ο αδης την ψυχην αυτου και διηνοιξεν το στομα αυτου του μη διαλιπειν και καταβησονται οι ενδοξοι και οι μεγαλοι και οι πλουσιοι και οι λοιμοι αυτης
15 And man will be bowed down, and man will be humbled, and the eyes of the exalted will be brought low.	15 και ταπεινωθησεται ανθρωπος και ατιμασθησεται ανηρ και οι οφθαλμοι οι μετεωροι ταπεινωθησονται
16 And the Lord of hosts will be exalted in judgment, and the holy God will be sanctified in justice.	16 και υψωθησεται κυριος σαβαωθ εν κριματι και ο θεος ο αγιος δοξασθησεται εν δικαιοσυνη
17 And the lambs will pasture in proper order, and new arrivals will eat from the deserts turned into fertile lands.	17 και βοσκηθησονται οι διηρπασμενοι ως ταυροι και τας ερημους των απειλημμενων αρνες φαγονται
18 Woe to you who draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and who draw sin as if with the rope of a cart,	18 ουαι οι επισπωμενοι τας αμαρτιας ως σχοινιω μακρω και ως ζυγου ιμαντι δαμαλεως τας ανομιας
19 and who say: “Let him hurry, and let his work arrive soon, so that we may see it. And let the plan of the Holy One of Israel approach and arrive, so that we may know it.”	19 οι λεγοντες το ταχος εγγισατω α ποιησει ινα ιδωμεν και ελθατω η βουλη του αγιου ισραηλ ινα γνωμεν
20 Woe to you who call evil good, and good evil; who substitute darkness for light, and light for darkness; who exchange bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!	20 ουαι οι λεγοντες το πονηρον καλον και το καλον πονηρον οι τιθεντες το σκοτος φως και το φως σκοτος οι τιθεντες το πικρον γλυκυ και το γλυκυ πικρον
21 Woe to you who are wise in your own eyes, and prudent in your own sight!	21 ουαι οι συνετοι εν εαυτοις και ενωπιον εαυτων επιστημονες
22 Woe to you who are powerful at drinking wine, who are strong men in contriving inebriation!	22 ουαι οι ισχυοντες υμων οι τον οινον πινοντες και οι δυνασται οι κεραννυντες το σικερα
23 For you justify an impious man in exchange for bribes, and you carry away the justice of a just man from him.	23 οι δικαιουντες τον ασεβη ενεκεν δωρων και το δικαιον του δικαιου αιροντες
24 Because of this, as the tongue of fire devours stubble, and as the heat of a flame burns it completely, so will their root become like glowing embers, and so will their offshoot ascend like dust. For they have cast aside the law of the Lord of hosts, and they have blasphemed the eloquence of the Holy One of Israel.	24 δια τουτο ον τροπον καυθησεται καλαμη υπο ανθρακος πυρος και συγκαυθησεται υπο φλογος ανειμενης η ριζα αυτων ως χνους εσται και το ανθος αυτων ως κονιορτος αναβησεται ου γαρ ηθελησαν τον νομον κυριου σαβαωθ αλλα το λογιον του αγιου ισραηλ παρωξυναν
25 For this reason, the fury of the Lord has been enraged against his people, and he has extended his hand over them, and he has struck them. And the mountains were disturbed. And their carcasses became like dung in the midst of the streets. After all this, his fury was not turned away; instead, his hand was still extended.	25 και εθυμωθη οργη κυριος σαβαωθ επι τον λαον αυτου και επεβαλεν την χειρα αυτου επ' αυτους και επαταξεν αυτους και παρωξυνθη τα ορη και εγενηθη τα θνησιμαια αυτων ως κοπρια εν μεσω οδου και εν πασι τουτοις ουκ απεστραφη ο θυμος αλλ' ετι η χειρ υψηλη
26 And he will lift up a sign to nations far away, and he will whistle to them from the ends of the earth. And behold, they will rush forward speedily.	26 τοιγαρουν αρει συσσημον εν τοις εθνεσιν τοις μακραν και συριει αυτοις απ' ακρου της γης και ιδου ταχυ κουφως ερχονται
27 There is no one weak or struggling among them. They will not become drowsy, and they will not sleep. Neither will the belt around their waist be loosened, nor the laces of their boots be broken.	27 ου πεινασουσιν ουδε κοπιασουσιν ουδε νυσταξουσιν ουδε κοιμηθησονται ουδε λυσουσιν τας ζωνας αυτων απο της οσφυος αυτων ουδε μη ραγωσιν οι ιμαντες των υποδηματων αυτων
28 Their arrows are sharp, and all their bows are taut. The hoofs of their horses are like flint, and their wheels are like the force of a tempest.	28 ων τα βελη οξεια εστιν και τα τοξα αυτων εντεταμενα οι ποδες των ιππων αυτων ως στερεα πετρα ελογισθησαν οι τροχοι των αρματων αυτων ως καταιγις
29 Their roaring is like the lion; they will roar like young lions. They will both roar and seize their prey. And they will wrap themselves around it, and there will be no one who can rescue it.	29 ορμωσιν ως λεοντες και παρεστηκαν ως σκυμνος λεοντος και επιλημψεται και βοησει ως θηριου και εκβαλει και ουκ εσται ο ρυομενος αυτους
30 And in that day, they will make a noise over it, like the sound of the sea. We will gaze out toward the land, and behold, the darkness of the tribulation, and even the light has been darkened by its gloom.	30 και βοησει δι' αυτους εν τη ημερα εκεινη ως φωνη θαλασσης κυμαινουσης και εμβλεψονται εις την γην και ιδου σκοτος σκληρον εν τη απορια αυτων
