Parallel
Isaiah 10
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Οὐαὶ τοῖς γράφουσιν πονηρίαν· γράφοντες γὰρ πονηρίαν γράφουσιν,
Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and issue oppressive decrees,
ἐκκλίνοντες κρίσιν πτωχῶν, καὶ ἁρπάζοντες κρίμα πενήτων τοῦ λαοῦ μου, ὥστε εἶναι αὐτοῖς χήραν εἷς ἁρπαγήν, καὶ ὀρφανὸν εἷς προνομήν.
to deprive the poor of fair treatment and withhold justice from the oppressed of My people, to make widows their prey and orphans their plunder.
καὶ τί ποιήσουσιν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐπισκοπῆς ; ἡ γὰρ θλίψις ὑμῖν πόρρωθεν ἥξει· καὶ πρὸς τίνα καταφεύξεσθε τοῦ βοηθηθῆναι; καὶ ποῦ καταλείψετε τὴν δόξαν ὑμῶν,
What will you do on the day of reckoning when devastation comes from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
τοῦ μὴ ἐμπεσεῖν εἰς ἐπαγωγήν; καὶ ὑποκάτω ἀνῃρημένων πεσοῦνται. ἐπὶ τούτοις πᾶσιν οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὃ θυμός, ἀλλ’ ἔτι ἡ χεὶρ ὑψηλή.
Nothing will remain but to crouch among the captives or fall among the slain. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
Οὐαὶ Ἀσσυρίοις, ἡ ῥάβδος τοῦ θυμοῦ μου καὶ ὀργῆς ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν.
Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger; the staff in their hands is My wrath.
τὴν ὀργήν μου εἰς ἔθνος ἄνομον ἀποστέλλω, καὶ τῷ ἐμῷ λαῷ συντάξω τοῦ ποιῆσαι σκῦλα καὶ προνομήν, καὶ καταπατεῖν τὰς πόλεις καὶ θεῖναι αὐτὰς εἷς κονιορτόν.
I will send him against a godless nation; I will dispatch him against a people destined for My rage, to take spoils and seize plunder, and to trample them down like clay in the streets.
αὐτὸς δὲ οὐχ οὕτως ἐνεθυμήθη, καὶ πῆ ψυχῇ οὔχ οὕτως λελόγισται· ἀλλὰ ἀπαλλάξει ὃ νοῦς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοῦ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι ἔθνη οὐκ ὀλίγα.
But this is not his intention; this is not his plan. For it is in his heart to destroy and cut off many nations.
καὶ ἐρεῖ Οὐκ ἔλαβον τὴν χώραν τὴν ἐπάνω Βαβυλῶνος καὶ Χαλαννή, οὗ ὃ πύργος ᾠκοδομήθη ; καὶ ἔλαβον Ἀραβείαν καὶ Δαμασκὸν καὶ Σαμάρειαν·
“Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?
ὃν τρόπον ταύτας ἔλαβον ἐν τῇ χειρί μου, καὶ πάσας τὰς χώρας λήμψομαι. ὀλολύξατε, τὸ, γλυπτὰ ἐν Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ·
As my hand seized the idolatrous kingdoms whose images surpassed those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
ὃν τρόπον γὰρ ἐποίησα Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ τοῖς χειροποιήτοις < αὐτῆς, > οὕτως ποιήσω καὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῆς.
and as I have done to Samaria and its idols, will I not also do to Jerusalem and her idols?”
Καὶ ἔσται ὅταν συντελέσῃ Κύριος πάντα ποιῶν έν τῷ ὄρει Σιὼν καὶ ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἐπάξει ἐπὶ τὸν νοῦν τὸν μέγαν, τὸν ἄρχοντα τῶν Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος τῆς δόξης τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ.
So when the Lord has completed all His work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, He will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the fruit of his arrogant heart and the proud look in his eyes.
εἶπεν γὰρ Τῇ ἰσχύι ποιήσω, καὶ < τῆ σοφίᾳ. τῆς συνέσεως > ἀφελῶ ὅρια ἐθνῶν, καὶ τὴν προνομεύσω·
For he says: ‘By the strength of my hand I have done this, and by my wisdom, for I am clever. I have removed the boundaries of nations and plundered their treasures; like a mighty one I subdued their rulers.
καὶ σείσω πόλεις κατοικουμένας, καὶ τὴν οἰκουμένην ὅλην καταλήμψομαι τῇ χειρί μου ὡς νοσσιάν, καὶ ὡς καταλελιμμένα ὠᾶ ἀρῶ· καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὃς διαφεύξεταί με ἢ ἀντείπῃ μοι.
My hand reached as into a nest to seize the wealth of the nations. Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth. No wing fluttered, no beak opened or chirped.’”
Μὴ δοξασθήσεται ἀξίνη ἄνευ τοῦ κόπτοντος έν αὐτῇ; ἦ ὑψωθήσεται πρίων ἄνευ τοῦ ἕλκοντος αὐτόν; ὡσαύτως ἐάν τις ἄρῃ ῥάβδον ἢ ξύλον, καὶ οὔχ οὕτως;
Does an axe raise itself above the one who swings it? Does a saw boast over him who saws with it? It would be like a rod waving the one who lifts it, or a staff lifting him who is not wood!
ἀλλὰ ἀποστελεῖ Κύριος σαβαὼθ εἷς τὴν σὴν τιμὴν ἀτιμίαν, καὶ εἷς τὴν σὴν δόξαν πῦρ καιόμενον καυθήσεται·
Therefore the Lord GOD of Hosts will send a wasting disease among Assyria’s stout warriors, and under his pomp will be kindled a fire like a burning flame.
καὶ ἔσται τὸ φῶς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ὡς πῦρ, καὶ ἁγιάσει αὐτὸ έν πυρὶ καιομένῳ, καὶ φάγεται ὡσεὶ χόρτον τὴν ὕλην.
And the Light of Israel will become a fire, and its Holy One a flame. In a single day it will burn and devour Assyria’s thorns and thistles.
τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀποσβεσθήσεται τὸ, ὅρη καὶ οἶ δρυμοὶ καὶ οἶ βουνοί, καὶ καταφάγεται ἀπὸ ψυχῆς ἕως σαρκῶν· καὶ ἔσται ὅ φεύγων ὡς ὅ φεύγων ἀπὸ φλογὸς καιομένης·
The splendor of its forests and orchards, both soul and body, it will completely destroy, as a sickness consumes a man.
καὶ οἱ καταλειφθέντες ἀπ’ αὐτῶν ἔσονται ἀριθμός, καὶ παιδίον γράψει αὐτούς.
The remaining trees of its forests will be so few that a child could count them.
Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ. ἐκείνῃ οὐκέτι προστεθήσεται τὸ καταλειφθὲν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ οἱ σωθέντες τοῦ Ἰακὼβ οὐκέτι μὴ πεποιθότες ὦσιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀδικήσαντας αὐτούς, ἀλλ᾿ ἔσονται πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τὸν θεὸν τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τῇ ἀληθείᾳ.
On that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer depend on him who struck them, but they will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.
καὶ ἔσται τὸ καταλειφθὲν τοῦ Ἰακὼβ ἐπὶ θεὸν ἰσχύοντα.
A remnant will return (note: Hebrew Shear-jashub; also in verse 22; see Isaiah 7:3.)—a remnant of Jacob—to the Mighty God.
καὶ ἐὰν γένηται ὁ λαός Ἰσραὴλ ὡς ἡ ἄμμος τῆς θαλάσσης, τὸ κατάλειμμα σωθήσεται· λόγον γὰρ συντελῶν καὶ συντέμνων ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ,
Though your people, O Israel, be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness.
ὅτι λόγον συντετμημένον ποιήσει ὁ θεός ἐν τῇ οἰκουμένῃ ὅλῃ.
For the Lord GOD of Hosts will carry out the destruction decreed upon the whole land (note: LXX He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work in all the world. Cited in Romans 9:28).
Διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς σαβαώθ Μὴ φοβοῦ, ὁ λαός μου, οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν Σιών, ἀπὸ Ἀσσυρίων, ὅτι ἐν ῥάβδῳ πατάξει σε· πληγὴν γὰρ ἐπάγω ἐπὶ σέ, τοῦ ἰδεῖν ὁδὸν Αἰγύπτου.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “O My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria, who strikes you with a rod and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians did.
ἔτι γὰρ μικρὸν καὶ παύσεται ἡ ὀργή, ὁ δὲ θυμός μου ἐπὶ τὴν βουλὴν αὐτῶν·
For in just a little while My fury against you will subside, and My anger will turn to their destruction.”
καὶ ἐπεγερεῖ ὁ θεὸς ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς κατὰ τὴν πληγὴν τὴν Μαδιὰμ ἐν τόπῳ θλίψεως, καὶ ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ τῇ ὁδῷ τῇ κατὰ θάλασσαν, εἰς τὴν ὁδόν τὴν κατ᾿ Αἴγυπτον.
And the LORD of Hosts will brandish a whip against them, as when He struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. He will raise His staff over the sea, as He did in Egypt.
καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀφαιρεθήσεται ὅ φόβος αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ ὁ ζυγὸς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ὤμου σου, καὶ καταφθαρήσεται ὁ ζυγὸς ἀπὸ τῶν ὤμων ὑμῶν.
On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders, and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because your neck will be too large (note: Literally broken because of fatness; LXX broken from your shoulders).
ἥξει γὰρ εἰς τὴν πόλιν Ἀγγαί,
Assyria has entered Aiath and passed through Migron, storing their supplies at Michmash.
καὶ παρελεύσεται εἰς Μαγεδδώ, καὶ ἐν Μαχμὰς θήσει τὰ, σκεύη αὐτοῦ· καὶ παρελεύσεται φάραγγα καὶ ἥξει εἰς Ἀγγαί, φόβος λήμψεται ῾Ραμὰ πόλιν Σαούλ. φεύξεται
They have crossed at the ford: “We will spend the night at Geba.” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul flees.
ἡ θυγάτηρ τηρ Γαλείμ, ἐπακούσεται ἐν Σά, ἐπακούσεται ἐν Ἀναθώθ·
Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim! Listen, O Laishah! O wretched Anathoth!
παρακαλεῖτε σήμερον ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τοῦ μεῖναι, τῇ χειρὶ παρακαλεῖτε τὸ ὄρος τὴν θυγατέρα Σιών, καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ οἱ ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ.
Yet today they will halt at Nob, shaking a fist at the mount of Daughter Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem.
ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ δεσπότης Κύριος σαβαὼθ συνταράσσει τοὺς ἐνδόξους μετὰ ἰσχύος, καὶ οἱ ὑψηλοὶ τῇ ὕβρει συντριβήσονται, καὶ ταπεινωθήσονται οἱ ὑψηλοί,
Behold, the Lord GOD of Hosts will lop off the branches with terrifying power. The tall trees will be cut down, the lofty ones will be felled.
< καὶ πεσοῦνται ὑψηλοὶ > μαχαίρᾳ, ὁ δὲ Λίβανος σὺν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς πεσεῖται.
He will clear the forest thickets with an axe, and Lebanon will fall before the Mighty One.
