1
Ἀκούσατε λόγον Κυρίου υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι κρίσις τῷ Κυρίῳ πρὸς τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν, διότι οὐκ ἔστιν ἀλήθεια, οὐδὲ ἔλεος, οὐδὲ ἐπίγνωσις Θεοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2
Ἀρὰ, καὶ ψεῦδος, καὶ φόνος καὶ κλοπὴ, καὶ μοιχεία κέχυται ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, καὶ αἵματα ἐφʼ αἵμασι μίσγουσι.
By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3
Διὰ τοῦτο πενθήσει ἡ γῆ, καὶ σμικρυνθήσεται σὺν πᾶσι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν αὐτὴν, σὺν τοῖς θηρίοις τοῦ ἀγροῦ, καὶ σὺν τοῖς ἑρπετοῖς τῆς γῆς, καὶ σὺν τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ οἱ ἰχθύες τῆς θαλάσσης ἐκλείψουσιν,
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
4
ὅπως μηδεὶς μήτε δικάζηται, μήτε ἐλέγχῃ μηδείς· ὁ δὲ λαός μου ὡς ἀντιλεγόμενος ἱερεύς.
Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
5
Καὶ ἀσθενήσει ἡμέρας, καὶ ἀσθενήσει ὁ προφήτης μετὰ σοῦ· νυκτὶ ὡμοίωσα τὴν μητέρα σου.
Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
6
Ὡμοιώθη ὁ λαός μου, ὡς οὐκ ἔχων γνῶσιν· ὅτι σὺ ἐπίγνωσιν ἀπώσω, κᾀγὼ ἀπώσομαί σε, τοῦμὴ ἱερατεύειν μοι· καὶ ἐπελάθου νόμον Θεοῦ σου, κᾀγὼ ἐπιλήσομαι τέκνων σου.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7
Κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος αὐτῶν, οὕτως ἥμαρτόν μοι· τὴν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς ἀτιμίαν θήσομαι.
As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
8
Ἁμαρτίας λαοῦ μου φάγονται· καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτῶν λήψονται τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν.
They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
9
Καὶ ἔσται καθὼς ὁ λαὸς, οὕτως καὶ ὁ ἱερεύς· καὶ ἐκδικήσω ἐπʼ αὐτὸν τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ διαβούλια αὐτοῦ ἀνταποδώσω αὐτῷ.
And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
10
Καὶ φάγονται, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐμπλησθῶσιν· ἐπόρνευσαν, καὶ οὐ μὴ κατευθύνωσι· διότι τὸν Κύριον ἐγκατέλιπον τοῦ φυλάξαι.
For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11
Πορνείαν καὶ οἶνον καὶ μέθυσμα ἐδέξατο καρδία λαοῦ μου·
Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
12
ἐν συμβόλοις ἐπηρώτων, καὶ ἐν ῥάβδοις αὐτοῦ ἀπήγγελλον αὐτῷ· πνεύματι πορνείας ἐπλανήθησαν, καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσαν ἀπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτῶν.
My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
13
Ἐπὶ τὰς κορυφὰς τῶν ὀρέων ἐθυσίαζον, καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς βουνοὺς ἔθυον ὑποκάτω δρυὸς, καὶ λεύκης, καὶ δένδρου συσκιάζοντος, ὅτι καλὸν σκέπη. διὰ τοῦτο ἐκπορνεύσουσιν αἱ θυγατέρες ὑμῶν, καὶ αἱ νύμφαι ὑμῶν μοιχεύσουσι.
They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
14
Καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐπισκέψωμαι ἐπὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ὑμῶν ὅταν πορνεύσωσι, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς νύμφας ὑμῶν ὅταν μοιχεύωσιν· ὅτι αὐτοὶ μετὰ τῶν πορνῶν συνεφύροντο, καὶ μετὰ τῶν τετελεσμένων ἔθυον, καὶ ὁ λαὸς ὁ μὴ συνιὼν συνεπλέκετο μετὰ πόρνης.
I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.
15
Σὺ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ μὴ ἀγνόει, καὶ Ἰούδα μὴ εἰσπορεύεσθε εἰς Γάλγαλα, καὶ μὴ ἀναβαίνετε εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ὦν, καὶ μὴ ὀμνύετε ζῶντα Κύριον.
Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth–aven, nor swear, The Lord liveth.
16
Διότι ὡς δάμαλις παροιστρῶσα παροίστρησεν Ἰσραήλ· νῦν νεμήσει αὐτοὺς Κύριος ὡς ἀμνὸν ἐν εὐρυχώρῳ.
For Israel slideth back as a backsliding heifer: now the Lord will feed them as a lamb in a large place.
17
Μέτοχος εἰδώλων Ἐφραὶμ ἔθηκεν ἑαυτῷ σκάνδαλα,
Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
18
ἠρέτισε Χαναναίους· πορνεύοντες ἐξεπόρνευσαν, ἠγάπησαν ἀτιμίαν ἐκ φρυάγματος αὐτῆς.
Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give ye.
19
Συστροφὴ πνεύματος σὺ εἶ ἐν ταῖς πτέρυξιν αὐτῆς, καὶ καταισχυνθήσονται ἐκ τῶν θυσιαστηρίων αὐτῶν.
The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
