1 ακουσατε τον λογον τουτον ον ελαλησεν κυριος εφ' υμας οικος ισραηλ και κατα πασης φυλης ης ανηγαγον εκ γης αιγυπτου λεγων | 1 Listen to the word which the Lord has spoken about you, sons of Israel, concerning the whole family that I led out of the land of Egypt, saying: |
2 πλην υμας εγνων εκ πασων φυλων της γης δια τουτο εκδικησω εφ' υμας πασας τας αμαρτιας υμων | 2 I have known only you in such a way, out of all the families of the earth. For this reason, I will visit upon you all your iniquities. |
3 ει πορευσονται δυο επι το αυτο καθολου εαν μη γνωρισωσιν εαυτους | 3 Will two walk together, unless they have agreed to do so? |
4 ει ερευξεται λεων εκ του δρυμου αυτου θηραν ουκ εχων ει δωσει σκυμνος φωνην αυτου εκ της μανδρας αυτου καθολου εαν μη αρπαση τι | 4 Will a lion roar in the forest, unless he has prey? Will the lion’s young cry out from his den, unless he has taken something? |
5 ει πεσειται ορνεον επι την γην ανευ ιξευτου ει σχασθησεται παγις επι της γης ανευ του συλλαβειν τι | 5 Will a bird fall into a snare on the ground, if there is no bird-catcher? Will a snare be taken away from the ground, before it has caught something? |
6 ει φωνησει σαλπιγξ εν πολει και λαος ου πτοηθησεται ει εσται κακια εν πολει ην κυριος ουκ εποιησεν | 6 Will the trumpet sound in a city, and the people not become frightened? Will there be disaster in a city, which the Lord has not done? |
7 διοτι ου μη ποιηση κυριος ο θεος πραγμα εαν μη αποκαλυψη παιδειαν αυτου προς τους δουλους αυτου τους προφητας | 7 For the Lord God does not fulfill his word, unless he has revealed his secret to his servants the prophets. |
8 λεων ερευξεται και τις ου φοβηθησεται κυριος ο θεος ελαλησεν και τις ου προφητευσει | 8 The lion will roar, who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken, who will not prophesy? |
9 απαγγειλατε χωραις εν ασσυριοις και επι τας χωρας της αιγυπτου και ειπατε συναχθητε επι το ορος σαμαρειας και ιδετε θαυμαστα πολλα εν μεσω αυτης και την καταδυναστειαν την εν αυτη | 9 Let it be heard in the buildings of Ashdod and in the buildings of the land of Egypt, and say: Gather together across the mountains of Samaria, and see the many absurdities in its midst, and those who are suffering false accusations in its inner most places. |
10 και ουκ εγνω α εσται εναντιον αυτης λεγει κυριος οι θησαυριζοντες αδικιαν και ταλαιπωριαν εν ταις χωραις αυτων | 10 And they do not know how to make it right, says the Lord, storing up iniquity and plunder in their buildings. |
11 δια τουτο ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος τυρος κυκλοθεν η γη σου ερημωθησεται και καταξει εκ σου ισχυν σου και διαρπαγησονται αι χωραι σου | 11 Because of these things, thus says the Lord God: The land will be encircled and squeezed together. And your strength will be drawn away from you, and your buildings will be torn apart. |
12 ταδε λεγει κυριος ον τροπον οταν εκσπαση ο ποιμην εκ στοματος του λεοντος δυο σκελη η λοβον ωτιου ουτως εκσπασθησονται οι υιοι ισραηλ οι κατοικουντες εν σαμαρεια κατεναντι φυλης και εν δαμασκω ιερεις | 12 Thus says the Lord: Just as if a shepherd had rescued two legs from the mouth of a lion, or the tip of an ear, so also will the sons of Israel be rescued, who dwell in the sick bed of Samaria, and in the cot of Damascus. |
13 ακουσατε και επιμαρτυρασθε τω οικω ιακωβ λεγει κυριος ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ | 13 Listen and give testimony in the house of Jacob, says the Lord God of hosts: |
14 διοτι εν τη ημερα οταν εκδικω ασεβειας του ισραηλ επ' αυτον και εκδικησω επι τα θυσιαστηρια βαιθηλ και κατασκαφησεται τα κερατα του θυσιαστηριου και πεσουνται επι την γην | 14 that in the day, when I will begin to visit the betrayals of Israel, I will visit upon him and upon the altars of Bethel. And the horns of the altars will be cut off and will fall to the ground. |
15 συγχεω και παταξω τον οικον τον περιπτερον επι τον οικον τον θερινον και απολουνται οικοι ελεφαντινοι και προστεθησονται οικοι ετεροι πολλοι λεγει κυριος | 15 And I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory will perish, and many buildings will be torn apart, says the Lord. |
