Ἰεζεκιήλ 30

1 καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

2 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου προφήτευσον καὶ εἰπόν τάδε λέγει κύριος ὦ ὦ ἡ ἡμέρα

'Son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Howl ye, ha! for the day!

3 ὅτι ἐγγὺς ἡ ἡμέρα τοῦ κυρίου ἡμέρα πέρας ἐθνῶν ἔσται

For near [is] a day, near [is] a day to Jehovah! A day of clouds, the time of nations it is.

4 καὶ ἥξει μάχαιρα ἐπ’ Αἰγυπτίους καὶ ἔσται ταραχὴ ἐν τῇ Αἰθιοπίᾳ καὶ πεσοῦνται τετραυματισμένοι ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ συμπεσεῖται αὐτῆς τὰ θεμέλια

And come in hath a sword to Egypt, And there hath been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And broken down have been its foundations.

5 Πέρσαι καὶ Κρῆτες καὶ Λυδοὶ καὶ Λίβυες καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐπίμικτοι καὶ τῶν υἱῶν τῆς διαθήκης μου μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται ἐν αὐτῇ

Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant with them by sword do fall,

6 καὶ πεσοῦνται τὰ ἀντιστηρίγματα Αἰγύπτου καὶ καταβήσεται ἡ ὕβρις τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτῆς ἀπὸ Μαγδώλου ἕως Συήνης μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται ἐν αὐτῇ λέγει κύριος

Thus said Jehovah: And — fallen have supporters of Egypt, And come down hath the arrogance of her strength, From Migdol to Syene, by sword they fall in her, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

7 καὶ ἐρημωθήσεται ἐν μέσῳ χωρῶν ἠρημωμένων καὶ αἱ πόλεις αὐτῶν ἐν μέσῳ πόλεων ἠρημωμένων ἔσονται

And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of wasted cities.

8 καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ὅταν δῶ πῦρ ἐπ’ Αἴγυπτον καὶ συντριβῶσι πάντες οἱ βοηθοῦντες αὐτῇ

And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving fire against Egypt, And broken have been all her helpers.

9 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐξελεύσονται ἄγγελοι σπεύδοντες ἀφανίσαι τὴν Αἰθιοπίαν καὶ ἔσται ταραχὴ ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ Αἰγύπτου ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἥκει

In that day go forth do messengers from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there hath been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for lo, it hath come.

10 τάδε λέγει κύριος κύριος καὶ ἀπολῶ πλῆθος Αἰγυπτίων διὰ χειρὸς Ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,

11 αὐτοῦ καὶ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ λοιμοὶ ἀπὸ ἐθνῶν ἀπεσταλμένοι ἀπολέσαι τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐκκενώσουσιν πάντες τὰς μαχαίρας αὐτῶν ἐπ’ Αἴγυπτον καὶ πλησθήσεται ἡ γῆ τραυματιῶν

He and his people with him — the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.

12 καὶ δώσω τοὺς ποταμοὺς αὐτῶν ἐρήμους καὶ ἀπολῶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς ἐν χερσὶν ἀλλοτρίων ἐγὼ κύριος λελάληκα

And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evil doers, And I have made desolate the land, And its fulness, by the hand of strangers, I, Jehovah, have spoken.

13 ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος κύριος καὶ ἀπολῶ μεγιστᾶνας ἀπὸ Μέμφεως καὶ ἄρχοντας ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου καὶ οὐκ ἔσονται ἔτι

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And — I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And a prince of the land of Egypt there is no more, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.

14 καὶ ἀπολῶ γῆν Παθουρης καὶ δώσω πῦρ ἐπὶ Τάνιν καὶ ποιήσω ἐκδίκησιν ἐν Διοσπόλει

And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,

15 καὶ ἐκχεῶ τὸν θυμόν μου ἐπὶ Σάιν τὴν ἰσχὺν Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἀπολῶ τὸ πλῆθος Μέμφεως

And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.

16 καὶ δώσω πῦρ ἐπ’ Αἴγυπτον καὶ ταραχὴν ταραχθήσεται Συήνη καὶ ἐν Διοσπόλει ἔσται ἔκρηγμα καὶ διαχυθήσεται ὕδατα

And I have given fire against Egypt, Greatly pained is Sin, and No is to be rent, And Noph hath daily distresses.

17 νεανίσκοι ἡλίου πόλεως καὶ Βουβάστου ἐν μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἐν αἰχμαλωσίᾳ πορεύσονται

The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth by sword do fall, And these into captivity do go.

18 καὶ ἐν Ταφνας συσκοτάσει ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν τῷ συντρῖψαι με ἐκεῖ τὰ σκῆπτρα Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἀπολεῖται ἐκεῖ ἡ ὕβρις τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτῆς καὶ αὐτὴν νεφέλη καλύψει καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῆς αἰχμάλωτοι ἀχθήσονται

And in Tehaphnehes hath the day been dark, In My breaking there the yokes of Egypt, And ceased in her hath the excellency of her strength, She — a cloud doth cover her, And her daughters into captivity do go.

19 καὶ ποιήσω κρίμα ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος

And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.'

20 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ μηνὶ ἑβδόμῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

And it cometh to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], in the seventh of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying: 'Son of man,

21 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου τοὺς βραχίονας Φαραω βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου συνέτριψα καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐ κατεδέθη τοῦ δοθῆναι ἴασιν τοῦ δοθῆναι ἐπ’ αὐτὸν μάλαγμα τοῦ δοθῆναι ἰσχὺν ἐπιλαβέσθαι μαχαίρας

The arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, I have broken, And lo, it hath not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it — to lay hold on the sword.

22 διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπὶ Φαραω βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου καὶ συντρίψω τοὺς βραχίονας αὐτοῦ τοὺς ἰσχυροὺς καὶ τοὺς τεταμένους καὶ καταβαλῶ τὴν μάχαιραν αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,

23 καὶ διασπερῶ Αἴγυπτον εἰς τὰ ἔθνη καὶ λικμήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς χώρας

And scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands,

24 καὶ κατισχύσω τοὺς βραχίονας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ δώσω τὴν ῥομφαίαν μου εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάξει αὐτὴν ἐπ’ Αἴγυπτον καὶ προνομεύσει τὴν προνομὴν αὐτῆς καὶ σκυλεύσει τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῆς

And strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And I have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he hath groaned the groans of a pierced one — before him.

25 καὶ ἐνισχύσω τοὺς βραχίονας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος οἱ δὲ βραχίονες Φαραω πεσοῦνται καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ἐν τῷ δοῦναι τὴν ῥομφαίαν μου εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ἐκτενεῖ αὐτὴν ἐπὶ γῆν Αἰγύπτου

And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh do fall down, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he hath stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.

26 καὶ διασπερῶ Αἴγυπτον εἰς τὰ ἔθνη καὶ λικμήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς χώρας καὶ γνώσονται πάντες ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος

And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
