Parallel
Isaiah 17
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Τὸ ῥῆμα τὸ κατὰ. Δαμασκοῦ. Ἰδοὺ Δαμασκὸς ἀρθήσεται ἀπὸ πόλεων, καὶ ἔσται εἰς πτῶσιν,
This is the burden against Damascus: “Behold, Damascus is no longer a city; it has become a heap of ruins.
καταλελιμμένη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, εἰς κοίτην ποιμνίων καὶ ἀνάπαυσιν βουκολίων, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ διώκων·
The cities of Aroer are forsaken; they will be left to the flocks, which will lie down with no one to fear.
καὶ οὐκέτι ἔσται ὀχυρὰ τοῦ καταφυγεῖν Ἐφράιμ· καὶ οὐκέτι ἔσται βασιλεία ἐν Δαμασκῷ, καὶ τὸ λοιπὸν τῶν Σύρων ἀπολεῖται· οὐ γὰρ σὺ βελτίων εἷ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τῆς δόξης αὐτῶν.
The fortress will disappear from Ephraim (note: Or The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim, that is, from the northern kingdom of Israel), and the sovereignty from Damascus. The remnant of Aram will be like the splendor of the Israelites,” declares the LORD of Hosts.
Τάδε λέγει Κύριος σαβαώθ Ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔκλειψις τῆς δόξης Ἰακώβ, καὶ τὰ πίονα τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ σεισθήσεται.
“In that day the splendor of Jacob will fade, and the fat of his body will waste away,
καὶ ἔσται ὅν τρόπον ἐάν τις συναγάγῃ ἀμητὸν ἑστηκότα καὶ σπέρμα σταχύων ἐν τῷ βραχίονι αὐτοῦ ἀμήσῃ. καὶ ἔσται ὃν τρόπον ἐάν τις συναγάγῃ στάχυν ἐν φάραγγι στερεᾷ,
as the reaper gathers the standing grain and harvests the ears with his arm, as one gleans heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.
καὶ καταλειφθῇ ἒν αὐτῇ καλάμη, ἢ ὡς ῥῶγες ἐλαίας δύο ἢ τρεῖς ἐπ᾿ ἄκρου μετεώρου, ἦ τέσσαρες ἢ πέντε ἐπὶ τῶν κλάδων αὐτοῦ καταλειφθῇ. τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ.
Yet gleanings will remain, like an olive tree that has been beaten—two or three berries atop the tree, four or five on its fruitful branches,” declares the LORD, the God of Israel.
τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ πεποιθὼς ἔσται ἅνθρωπος ἐπὶ τῷ ποιήσαντι αὐτόν, οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐμβλέψονται,
In that day men will look to their Maker and turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel.
καὶ οὐ μὴ πεποιθότες ὦσιν ἐπὶ τοῖς βωμοῖς οὐδὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν ἅ ἐποίησαν οἱ δάκτυλοι οὐτῶν, καὶ οὐκ ὄψονται τὰ. ἄλση αὐτῶν οὐδὲ τὰ βδελύγματα αὐτῶν.
They will not look to the altars they have fashioned with their hands or to the Asherahs and incense altars they have made with their fingers.
τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσονται αἱ πόλεις σου ἐγκαταλελιμμέναι ὃν τρόπον ἐγκατέλιπον οἱ Ἀμορραῖοι καὶ οἱ Εὑαῖοι ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἔσονται ἔρημοι·
In that day their strong cities will be like forsaken thickets and summits, abandoned to the Israelites and to utter desolation.
διότι ἐγκατέλιπες τὸν θεὸν τὸν σωτῆρά σου, καὶ Κυρίου τοῦ βοηθοῦ σου οὐκ ἐμνήσθης. διὰ τοῦτο φυτεύσεις φύτευμα ἄπιστον καὶ σπέρμα ἄπιστον·
For you have forgotten the God of your salvation and failed to remember the Rock of your refuge. Therefore, though you cultivate delightful plots and set out cuttings from exotic vines—
τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ ᾖ ἂν φυτεύσῃς, πλανηθήσῃ· τὸ δὲ πρωὶ ἐὰν < σπείρῃς > , ἀνθήσει εἷς ἀμητόν ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ κληρώσῃ, καὶ ὥσπερ πατὴρ ἀνθρώπου κληρώσῃ τοῖς υἱοῖς.
though on the day you plant you make them grow, and on that morning you help your seed sprout—yet the harvest will vanish on the day of disease and incurable pain.
Οὐαὶ πλῆθος ἐθνῶν πολλῶν· ὡς θάλασσα κυμαίνουσα, οὕτως ταραχθήσεσθε, καὶ νῶτος ἐθνῶν πολλῶν ὡς ὕδωρ ἠχήσει·
Alas, the tumult of many peoples; they rage like the roaring seas and clamoring nations; they rumble like the crashing of mighty waters.
ὡς ὕδωρ πολὺ ἔθνη πολλά, ὡς ὕδατος πολλοῦ βίᾳ. καταφερομένου. καὶ ἀποσκορακιεῖ αὐτόν, καὶ πόρρω αὐτὸν διώξεται ὡς χνοῦν ἀχύρου λικμώντων ἀπέναντι ἀνέμου, καὶ ὡς κονιορτὸν τροχοῦ καταιγὶς φέρουσα.
The nations rage like the rush of many waters. He rebukes them, and they flee far away, driven before the wind like chaff on the hills, like tumbleweeds before a gale.
πρὸς ἑσπέραν ἔσται πένθος· πρὶν ἦ πρωί, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται. αὕτη ἡ μερὶς τῶν ὑμᾶς προνομευσάντων, καὶ κληρονομία τῶν ὑμᾶς κληρονομησάντων.
In the evening, there is sudden terror! Before morning, they are no more! This is the portion of those who loot us and the lot of those who plunder us.
