which he spoke to all the people of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying
τρισκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει Ιωσια υἱοῦ Αμως βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης εἴκοσι καὶ τρία ἔτη καὶ ἐλάλησα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὀρθρίζων καὶ λέγων
In the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon, king of Judah, even until this day, twenty-three years, and I have spoken to you, rising early and saying
ἀπέστελλον πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοὺς δούλους μου τοὺς προφήτας ὄρθρου ἀποστέλλων καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατε καὶ οὐ προσέσχετε τοῖς ὠσὶν ὑμῶν
And I sent to you my servants the prophets, sending early, and you did not listen and did not give heed with your ears
ἀποστράφητε ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ τῆς πονηρᾶς καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πονηρῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων ὑμῶν καὶ κατοικήσετε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἧς ἔδωκα ὑμῖν καὶ τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν ἀπ᾿ αἰῶνος καὶ ἕως αἰῶνος
saying, Turn back each one from his evil way and from your evil practices, and you shall dwell on the land which I gave to you and to your fathers from of old and forever
πορεύεσθε ὀπίσω θεῶν ἀλλοτρίων τοῦ δουλεύειν αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῦ προσκυνεῖν αὐτοῖς ὅπως μὴ παροργίζητέ με ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν τοῦ κακῶσαι ὑμᾶς
Do not go after foreign gods to serve them and to worship them, so that you do not provoke me to anger by the works of your hands, to harm you.
and you did not hear me
Therefore thus says the Lord: Since you did not believe my words,
ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω καὶ λήμψομαι τὴν πατριὰν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ καὶ ἄξω αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ταύτην καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τὰ κύκλῳ αὐτῆς καὶ ἐξερημώσω αὐτοὺς καὶ δώσω αὐτοὺς εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ εἰς συριγμὸν καὶ εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν αἰώνιον
Behold, I am sending and I will take the family from the north, and I will bring them against this land and against its inhabitants and against all the nations around it, and I will make them desolate and give them for destruction and for a hissing and for everlasting reproach.
ἀπολῶ ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν φωνὴν χαρᾶς καὶ φωνὴν εὐφροσύνης φωνὴν νυμφίου καὶ φωνὴν νύμφης ὀσμὴν μύρου καὶ φῶς λύχνου
And I will destroy from among them the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of bridegroom and the voice of bride, the scent of ointment and the light of a lamp.
And all the land shall be for desolation, and they shall serve among the nations seventy years
ἐν τῷ πληρωθῆναι τὰ ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη ἐκδικήσω τὸ ἔθνος ἐκεῖνο φησὶν κύριος καὶ θήσομαι αὐτοὺς εἰς ἀφανισμὸν αἰώνιον
And when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will take vengeance on that nation, says the Lord, and I will make them for everlasting destruction.
ἐπάξω ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐκείνην πάντας τοὺς λόγους μου οὓς ἐλάλησα κατ᾿ αὐτῆς πάντα τὰ γεγραμμένα ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τούτῳ
And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have spoken against it, everything written in this book
which Jeremiah prophesied against the nations, Elam
Thus says the Lord: Let the bow of Elam be broken, the beginning of their might.
ἐπάξω ἐπὶ Αιλαμ τέσσαρας ἀνέμους ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἄκρων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ διασπερῶ αὐτοὺς ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἀνέμοις τούτοις καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ἔθνος ὃ οὐχ ἥξει ἐκεῖ οἱ ἐξωσμένοι Αιλαμ
And I will bring upon Elam four winds from the four ends of heaven, and I will scatter them into all these winds, and there shall not be a nation where the outcasts of Elam shall not come there.
πτοήσω αὐτοὺς ἐναντίον τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν τῶν ζητούντων τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπάξω ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς κακὰ κατὰ τὴν ὀργὴν τοῦ θυμοῦ μου καὶ ἐπαποστελῶ ὀπίσω αὐτῶν τὴν μάχαιράν μου ἕως τοῦ ἐξαναλῶσαι αὐτούς
And I will frighten them before their enemies, those seeking their life, and I will bring evils upon them according to the anger of my wrath, and I will send my sword after them until I consume them.
and I will set my throne in Elam, and I will send out from there a king and nobles
And it shall be at the end of the days, I will restore the captivity of Elam, says the Lord
In the beginning of the reigning of Zedekiah the king, this word came concerning Elam.
