KJV

1  Moreover the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ came¹⁹⁶¹ to⁴¹³ me, saying,⁵⁵⁹

2  Go¹⁹⁸⁰ and cry⁷¹²¹ in the ears²⁴¹ of Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD;³⁰⁶⁸ I remember²¹⁴² thee, the kindness²⁶¹⁷ of thy youth,⁵²⁷¹ the love¹⁶⁰ of thine espousals,³⁶²³ when thou wentest¹⁹⁸⁰ after³¹⁰ me in the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ in a land⁷⁷⁶ that was not³⁸⁰⁸ sown.²²³²

3  Israel³⁴⁷⁸ was holiness⁶⁹⁴⁴ unto the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and the firstfruits⁷²²⁵ of his increase:⁸³⁹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ that devour³⁹⁸ him shall offend;⁸¹⁶ evil⁷⁴⁵¹ shall come⁹³⁵ upon⁴¹³ them, saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

4  Hear⁸⁰⁸⁵ ye the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ O house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Jacob,³²⁹⁰ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the families⁴⁹⁴⁰ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Israel:³⁴⁷⁸

5  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ What⁴¹⁰⁰ iniquity⁵⁷⁶⁶ have your fathers¹ found⁴⁶⁷² in me, that³⁵⁸⁸ they are gone far⁷³⁶⁸ from^{4480 5921} me, and have walked¹⁹⁸⁰ after³¹⁰ vanity,¹⁸⁹² and are become vain?¹⁸⁹¹

6  Neither³⁸⁰⁸ said⁵⁵⁹ they, Where³⁴⁶ is the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ that brought us up^{5927 853} out of the land^{4480 776} of Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ that led¹⁹⁸⁰ us through the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ through a land⁷⁷⁶ of deserts⁶¹⁶⁰ and of pits,⁷⁷⁴⁵ through a land⁷⁷⁶ of drought,⁶⁷²³ and of the shadow of death,⁶⁷⁵⁷ through a land⁷⁷⁶ that no³⁸⁰⁸ man³⁷⁶ passed through,⁵⁶⁷⁴ and where⁸⁰³³ no³⁸⁰⁸ man¹²⁰ dwelt?³⁴²⁷

7  And I brought⁹³⁵ you into⁴¹³ a plentiful³⁷⁵⁹ country,⁷⁷⁶ to eat³⁹⁸ the fruit⁶⁵²⁹ thereof and the goodness²⁸⁹⁸ thereof; but when ye entered,⁹³⁵ ye defiled^{2930 853} my land,⁷⁷⁶ and made⁷⁷⁶⁰ mine heritage⁵¹⁵⁹ an abomination.⁸⁴⁴¹

8  The priests³⁵⁴⁸ said⁵⁵⁹ not,³⁸⁰⁸ Where³⁴⁶ is the LORD?³⁰⁶⁸ and they that handle⁸⁶¹⁰ the law⁸⁴⁵¹ knew³⁰⁴⁵ me not:³⁸⁰⁸ the pastors⁷⁴⁶² also transgressed⁶⁵⁸⁶ against me, and the prophets⁵⁰³⁰ prophesied⁵⁰¹² by Baal,¹¹⁶⁸ and walked¹⁹⁸⁰ after³¹⁰ things that do not³⁸⁰⁸ profit.³²⁷⁶

9  Wherefore³⁶⁵¹ I will yet⁵⁷⁵⁰ plead⁷³⁷⁸ with⁸⁵⁴ you, saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and with⁸⁵⁴ your children's¹¹²¹ children¹¹²¹ will I plead.⁷³⁷⁸

10  For³⁵⁸⁸ pass over⁵⁶⁷⁴ the isles³³⁹ of Chittim,³⁷⁹⁴ and see;⁷²⁰⁰ and send⁷⁹⁷¹ unto Kedar,⁶⁹³⁸ and consider⁹⁹⁵ diligently,³⁹⁶⁶ and see⁷²⁰⁰ if there be¹⁹⁶¹ such²⁰⁶³ a thing.

11  Hath a nation¹⁴⁷¹ changed⁴¹⁷¹ their gods,⁴³⁰ which¹⁹⁹² are yet no³⁸⁰⁸ gods?⁴³⁰ but my people⁵⁹⁷¹ have changed⁴¹⁷¹ their glory³⁵¹⁹ for that which doth not³⁸⁰⁸ profit.³²⁷⁶

12  Be astonished,⁸⁰⁷⁴ O ye heavens,⁸⁰⁶⁴ at⁵⁹²¹ this,²⁰⁶³ and be horribly afraid,⁸¹⁷⁵ be ye very³⁹⁶⁶ desolate,²⁷¹⁷ saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

13  For³⁵⁸⁸ my people⁵⁹⁷¹ have committed⁶²¹³ two⁸¹⁴⁷ evils;⁷⁴⁵¹ they have forsaken⁵⁸⁰⁰ me the fountain⁴⁷²⁶ of living²⁴¹⁶ waters,⁴³²⁵ and hewed them out²⁶⁷² cisterns,⁸⁷⁷ broken⁷⁶⁶⁵ cisterns,⁸⁷⁷ that⁸³⁴ can hold³⁵⁵⁷ no³⁸⁰⁸ water.⁴³²⁵

14  Is Israel³⁴⁷⁸ a servant?⁵⁶⁵⁰ is he¹⁹³¹ a homeborn^{1004 3211} slave? why⁴⁰⁶⁹ is¹⁹⁶¹ he spoiled?⁹⁵⁷

15  The young lions³⁷¹⁵ roared⁷⁵⁸⁰ upon⁵⁹²¹ him, and yelled,^{5414 6963} and they made⁷⁸⁹⁶ his land⁷⁷⁶ waste:⁸⁰⁴⁷ his cities⁵⁸⁹² are burned³³⁴¹ without^{4480 1097} inhabitant.³⁴²⁷

16  Also¹⁵⁷¹ the children¹¹²¹ of Noph⁵²⁹⁷ and Tahapanes⁸⁴⁷¹ have broken⁷⁴⁶² the crown of thy head.⁶⁹³⁶

17  Hast thou not³⁸⁰⁸ procured⁶²¹³ this²⁰⁶³ unto thyself, in that thou hast forsaken^{5800 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ when⁶²⁵⁶ he led¹⁹⁸⁰ thee by the way?¹⁸⁷⁰

18  And now⁶²⁵⁸ what⁴¹⁰⁰ hast thou to do in the way¹⁸⁷⁰ of Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ to drink⁸³⁵⁴ the waters⁴³²⁵ of Sihor?⁷⁸⁸³ or what⁴¹⁰⁰ hast thou to do in the way¹⁸⁷⁰ of Assyria,⁸⁰⁴ to drink⁸³⁵⁴ the waters⁴³²⁵ of the river?⁵¹⁰⁴

19  Thine own wickedness⁷⁴⁵¹ shall correct³²⁵⁶ thee, and thy backslidings⁴⁸⁷⁸ shall reprove³¹⁹⁸ thee: know³⁰⁴⁵ therefore and see⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ it is an evil⁷⁴⁵¹ thing and bitter,⁴⁷⁵¹ that thou hast forsaken^{5800 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ and that my fear⁶³⁴⁵ is not³⁸⁰⁸ in⁴¹³ thee, saith⁵⁰⁰² the Lord¹³⁶ GOD³⁰⁶⁹ of hosts.⁶⁶³⁵

20  For³⁵⁸⁸ of old time^{4480 5769} I have broken⁷⁶⁶⁵ thy yoke,⁵⁹²³ and burst⁵⁴²³ thy bands;⁴¹⁴⁷ and thou saidst,⁵⁵⁹ I will not³⁸⁰⁸ transgress;⁵⁶⁷⁴ when³⁵⁸⁸ upon⁵⁹²¹ every³⁶⁰⁵ high¹³⁶⁴ hill¹³⁸⁹ and under⁸⁴⁷⁸ every³⁶⁰⁵ green⁷⁴⁸⁸ tree⁶⁰⁸⁶ thou⁸⁵⁹ wanderest,⁶⁸⁰⁸ playing the harlot.²¹⁸¹

21  Yet I⁵⁹⁵ had planted⁵¹⁹³ thee a noble vine,⁸³²¹ wholly³⁶⁰⁵ a right⁵⁷¹ seed:²²³³ how³⁴⁹ then art thou turned²⁰¹⁵ into the degenerate⁵⁴⁹⁴ plant of a strange⁵²³⁷ vine¹⁶¹² unto me?

22  For³⁵⁸⁸ though⁵¹⁸ thou wash³⁵²⁶ thee with niter,⁵⁴²⁷ and take thee much⁷²³⁵ soap,¹²⁸⁷ yet thine iniquity⁵⁷⁷¹ is marked³⁷⁹⁹ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ me, saith⁵⁰⁰² the Lord¹³⁶ GOD.³⁰⁶⁹

23  How³⁴⁹ canst thou say,⁵⁵⁹ I am not³⁸⁰⁸ polluted,²⁹³⁰ I have not³⁸⁰⁸ gone¹⁹⁸⁰ after³¹⁰ Baalim?¹¹⁶⁸ see⁷²⁰⁰ thy way¹⁸⁷⁰ in the valley,¹⁵¹⁶ know³⁰⁴⁵ what⁴¹⁰⁰ thou hast done:⁶²¹³ thou art a swift⁷⁰³¹ dromedary¹⁰⁷² traversing⁸³⁰⁸ her ways;¹⁸⁷⁰

24  A wild ass⁶⁵⁰¹ used³⁹²⁸ to the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ that snuffeth up⁷⁶⁰² the wind⁷³⁰⁷ at her pleasure;^{185 5315} in her occasion⁸³⁸⁵ who⁴³¹⁰ can turn her away?⁷⁷²⁵ all³⁶⁰⁵ they that seek¹²⁴⁵ her will not³⁸⁰⁸ weary³²⁸⁶ themselves; in her month²³²⁰ they shall find⁴⁶⁷² her.

25  Withhold⁴⁵¹³ thy foot⁷²⁷² from being unshod,^{4480 3182} and thy throat¹⁶²⁷ from thirst:^{4480 6773} but thou saidst,⁵⁵⁹ There is no hope:²⁹⁷⁶ no;³⁸⁰⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ I have loved¹⁵⁷ strangers,²¹¹⁴ and after³¹⁰ them will I go.¹⁹⁸⁰

26  As the thief¹⁵⁹⁰ is ashamed¹³²² when³⁵⁸⁸ he is found,⁴⁶⁷² so³⁶⁵¹ is the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ ashamed;⁹⁵⁴ they,¹⁹⁹² their kings,⁴⁴²⁸ their princes,⁸²⁶⁹ and their priests,³⁵⁴⁸ and their prophets,⁵⁰³⁰

27  Saying⁵⁵⁹ to a stock,⁶⁰⁸⁶ Thou⁸⁵⁹ art my father;¹ and to a stone,⁶⁸ Thou⁸⁵⁹ hast brought me forth:³²⁰⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ they have turned⁶⁴³⁷ their back⁶²⁰³ unto⁴¹³ me, and not³⁸⁰⁸ their face:⁶⁴⁴⁰ but in the time⁶²⁵⁶ of their trouble⁷⁴⁵¹ they will say,⁵⁵⁹ Arise,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and save³⁴⁶⁷ us.

28  But where³⁴⁶ are thy gods⁴³⁰ that⁸³⁴ thou hast made⁶²¹³ thee? let them arise,⁶⁹⁶⁵ if⁵¹⁸ they can save³⁴⁶⁷ thee in the time⁶²⁵⁶ of thy trouble:⁷⁴⁵¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ according to the number⁴⁵⁵⁷ of thy cities⁵⁸⁹² are¹⁹⁶¹ thy gods,⁴³⁰ O Judah.³⁰⁶³

29  Wherefore⁴¹⁰⁰ will ye plead⁷³⁷⁸ with⁴¹³ me? ye all³⁶⁰⁵ have transgressed⁶⁵⁸⁶ against me, saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

30  In vain⁷⁷²³ have I smitten^{5221 853} your children;¹¹²¹ they received³⁹⁴⁷ no³⁸⁰⁸ correction:⁴¹⁴⁸ your own sword²⁷¹⁹ hath devoured³⁹⁸ your prophets,⁵⁰³⁰ like a destroying⁷⁸⁴³ lion.⁷³⁸

31  O generation,¹⁷⁵⁵ see⁷²⁰⁰ ye⁸⁵⁹ the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸ Have I been¹⁹⁶¹ a wilderness⁴⁰⁵⁷ unto Israel?³⁴⁷⁸ a land⁷⁷⁶ of darkness?³⁹⁹¹ wherefore⁴⁰⁶⁹ say⁵⁵⁹ my people,⁵⁹⁷¹ We are lords;⁷³⁰⁰ we will come⁹³⁵ no³⁸⁰⁸ more⁵⁷⁵⁰ unto⁴¹³ thee?

32  Can a maid¹³³⁰ forget⁷⁹¹¹ her ornaments,⁵⁷¹⁶ or a bride³⁶¹⁸ her attire?⁷¹⁹⁶ yet my people⁵⁹⁷¹ have forgotten⁷⁹¹¹ me days³¹¹⁷ without³⁶⁹ number.⁴⁵⁵⁷

33  Why⁴¹⁰⁰ trimmest³¹⁹⁰ thou thy way¹⁸⁷⁰ to seek¹²⁴⁵ love?¹⁶⁰ therefore³⁶⁵¹ hast thou also¹⁵⁷¹ taught^{3925 853} the wicked ones^{7451 853} thy ways.¹⁸⁷⁰

34  Also¹⁵⁷¹ in thy skirts³⁶⁷¹ is found⁴⁶⁷² the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of the souls⁵³¹⁵ of the poor³⁴ innocents:⁵³⁵⁵ I have not³⁸⁰⁸ found⁴⁶⁷² it by secret search,⁴²⁹⁰ but³⁵⁸⁸ upon⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ these.⁴²⁸

35  Yet thou sayest,⁵⁵⁹ Because³⁵⁸⁸ I am innocent,⁵³⁵² surely³⁸⁹ his anger⁶³⁹ shall turn⁷⁷²⁵ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ me. Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I will plead with⁸¹⁹⁹ thee, because⁵⁹²¹ thou sayest,⁵⁵⁹ I have not³⁸⁰⁸ sinned.²³⁹⁸

36  Why⁴¹⁰⁰ gaddest²³⁵ thou about so much³⁹⁶⁶ to change^{8138 853} thy way?¹⁸⁷⁰ thou also¹⁵⁷¹ shalt be ashamed⁹⁵⁴ of Egypt,^{4480 4714} as⁸³⁴ thou wast ashamed⁹⁵⁴ of Assyria.^{4480 804}

37  Yea,¹⁵⁷¹ thou shalt go forth³³¹⁸ from^{4480 854} him,²⁰⁸⁸ and thine hands³⁰²⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ thine head:⁷²¹⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath rejected³⁹⁸⁸ thy confidences,⁴⁰⁰⁹ and thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ prosper⁶⁷⁴³ in them.

2 καὶ εἶπεν τάδε λέγει κύριος ἐμνήσθην ἐλέους νεότητός σου καὶ ἀγάπης τελειώσεώς σου τοῦ ἐξακολουθῆσαί σε τῷ ἁγίῳ Ισραηλ λέγει κύριος

3 ἅγιος Ισραηλ τῷ κυρίῳ ἀρχὴ γενημάτων αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ ἔσθοντες αὐτὸν πλημμελήσουσιν κακὰ ἥξει ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς φησὶν κύριος

4 ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου οἶκος Ιακωβ καὶ πᾶσα πατριὰ οἴκου Ισραηλ

5 τάδε λέγει κύριος τί εὕροσαν οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ πλημμέλημα ὅτι ἀπέστησαν μακρὰν ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ὀπίσω τῶν ματαίων καὶ ἐματαιώθησαν

6 καὶ οὐκ εἶπαν ποῦ ἐστιν κύριος ὁ ἀναγαγὼν ἡμᾶς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ὁ καθοδηγήσας ἡμᾶς ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐν γῇ ἀπείρῳ καὶ ἀβάτῳ ἐν γῇ ἀνύδρῳ καὶ ἀκάρπῳ ἐν γῇ ἐν ᾗ οὐ διώδευσεν ἐν αὐτῇ οὐθὲν καὶ οὐ κατῴκησεν ἐκεῖ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου

7 καὶ εἰσήγαγον ὑμᾶς εἰς τὸν Κάρμηλον τοῦ φαγεῖν ὑμᾶς τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ἀγαθὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσήλθατε καὶ ἐμιάνατε τὴν γῆν μου καὶ τὴν κληρονομίαν μου ἔθεσθε εἰς βδέλυγμα

8 οἱ ἱερεῖς οὐκ εἶπαν ποῦ ἐστιν κύριος καὶ οἱ ἀντεχόμενοι τοῦ νόμου οὐκ ἠπίσταντό με καὶ οἱ ποιμένες ἠσέβουν εἰς ἐμέ καὶ οἱ προφῆται ἐπροφήτευον τῇ Βααλ καὶ ὀπίσω ἀνωφελοῦς ἐπορεύθησαν

9 διὰ τοῦτο ἔτι κριθήσομαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς λέγει κύριος καὶ πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν υἱῶν ὑμῶν κριθήσομαι

10 διότι διέλθετε εἰς νήσους Χεττιιμ καὶ ἴδετε καὶ εἰς Κηδαρ ἀποστείλατε καὶ νοήσατε σφόδρα καὶ ἴδετε εἰ γέγονεν τοιαῦτα

11 εἰ ἀλλάξονται ἔθνη θεοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ οὗτοι οὔκ εἰσιν θεοί ὁ δὲ λαός μου ἠλλάξατο τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ ἐξ ἧς οὐκ ὠφεληθήσονται

12 ἐξέστη ὁ οὐρανὸς ἐπὶ τούτῳ καὶ ἔφριξεν ἐπὶ πλεῖον σφόδρα λέγει κύριος

13 ὅτι δύο πονηρὰ ἐποίησεν ὁ λαός μου ἐμὲ ἐγκατέλιπον πηγὴν ὕδατος ζωῆς καὶ ὤρυξαν ἑαυτοῖς λάκκους συντετριμμένους οἳ οὐ δυνήσονται ὕδωρ συνέχειν

14 μὴ δοῦλός ἐστιν Ισραηλ ἢ οἰκογενής ἐστιν διὰ τί εἰς προνομὴν ἐγένετο

15 ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ὠρύοντο λέοντες καὶ ἔδωκαν τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν οἳ ἔταξαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ εἰς ἔρημον καὶ αἱ πόλεις αὐτοῦ κατεσκάφησαν παρὰ τὸ μὴ κατοικεῖσθαι

16 καὶ υἱοὶ Μέμφεως καὶ Ταφνας ἔγνωσάν σε καὶ κατέπαιζόν σου

17 οὐχὶ ταῦτα ἐποίησέν σοι τὸ καταλιπεῖν σε ἐμέ λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός σου

18 καὶ νῦν τί σοι καὶ τῇ ὁδῷ Αἰγύπτου τοῦ πιεῖν ὕδωρ Γηων καὶ τί σοι καὶ τῇ ὁδῷ Ἀσσυρίων τοῦ πιεῖν ὕδωρ ποταμῶν

19 παιδεύσει σε ἡ ἀποστασία σου καὶ ἡ κακία σου ἐλέγξει σε καὶ γνῶθι καὶ ἰδὲ ὅτι πικρόν σοι τὸ καταλιπεῖν σε ἐμέ λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός σου καὶ οὐκ εὐδόκησα ἐπὶ σοί λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός σου

20 ὅτι ἀπ᾽ αἰῶνος συνέτριψας τὸν ζυγόν σου διέσπασας τοὺς δεσμούς σου καὶ εἶπας οὐ δουλεύσω ἀλλὰ πορεύσομαι ἐπὶ πᾶν βουνὸν ὑψηλὸν καὶ ὑποκάτω παντὸς ξύλου κατασκίου ἐκεῖ διαχυθήσομαι ἐν τῇ πορνείᾳ μου

21 ἐγὼ δὲ ἐφύτευσά σε ἄμπελον καρποφόρον πᾶσαν ἀληθινήν πῶς ἐστράφης εἰς πικρίαν ἡ ἄμπελος ἡ ἀλλοτρία

22 ἐὰν ἀποπλύνῃ ἐν νίτρῳ καὶ πληθύνῃς σεαυτῇ πόαν κεκηλίδωσαι ἐν ταῖς ἀδικίαις σου ἐναντίον ἐμοῦ λέγει κύριος

23 πῶς ἐρεῖς οὐκ ἐμιάνθην καὶ ὀπίσω τῆς Βααλ οὐκ ἐπορεύθην ἰδὲ τὰς ὁδούς σου ἐν τῷ πολυανδρίῳ καὶ γνῶθι τί ἐποίησας ὀψὲ φωνὴ αὐτῆς ὠλόλυξεν τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῆς

24 ἐπλάτυνεν ἐφ᾽ ὕδατα ἐρήμου ἐν ἐπιθυμίαις ψυχῆς αὐτῆς ἐπνευματοφορεῖτο παρεδόθη τίς ἐπιστρέψει αὐτήν πάντες οἱ ζητοῦντες αὐτὴν οὐ κοπιάσουσιν ἐν τῇ ταπεινώσει αὐτῆς εὑρήσουσιν αὐτήν

25 ἀπόστρεψον τὸν πόδα σου ἀπὸ ὁδοῦ τραχείας καὶ τὸν φάρυγγά σου ἀπὸ δίψους ἡ δὲ εἶπεν ἀνδριοῦμαι ὅτι ἠγαπήκει ἀλλοτρίους καὶ ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἐπορεύετο

26 ὡς αἰσχύνη κλέπτου ὅταν ἁλῷ οὕτως αἰσχυνθήσονται οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ προφῆται αὐτῶν

27 τῷ ξύλῳ εἶπαν ὅτι πατήρ μου εἶ σύ καὶ τῷ λίθῳ σὺ ἐγέννησάς με καὶ ἔστρεψαν ἐπ᾽ ἐμὲ νῶτα καὶ οὐ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τῶν κακῶν αὐτῶν ἐροῦσιν ἀνάστα καὶ σῶσον ἡμᾶς

28 καὶ ποῦ εἰσιν οἱ θεοί σου οὓς ἐποίησας σεαυτῷ εἰ ἀναστήσονται καὶ σώσουσίν σε ἐν καιρῷ τῆς κακώσεώς σου ὅτι κατ᾽ ἀριθμὸν τῶν πόλεών σου ἦσαν θεοί σου Ιουδα καὶ κατ᾽ ἀριθμὸν διόδων τῆς Ιερουσαλημ ἔθυον τῇ Βααλ

29 ἵνα τί λαλεῖτε πρός με πάντες ὑμεῖς ἠσεβήσατε καὶ πάντες ὑμεῖς ἠνομήσατε εἰς ἐμέ λέγει κύριος

30 μάτην ἐπάταξα τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν παιδείαν οὐκ ἐδέξασθε μάχαιρα κατέφαγεν τοὺς προφήτας ὑμῶν ὡς λέων ὀλεθρεύων καὶ οὐκ ἐφοβήθητε

31 ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου τάδε λέγει κύριος μὴ ἔρημος ἐγενόμην τῷ Ισραηλ ἢ γῆ κεχερσωμένη διὰ τί εἶπεν ὁ λαός μου οὐ κυριευθησόμεθα καὶ οὐχ ἥξομεν πρὸς σὲ ἔτι

32 μὴ ἐπιλήσεται νύμφη τὸν κόσμον αὐτῆς καὶ παρθένος τὴν στηθοδεσμίδα αὐτῆς ὁ δὲ λαός μου ἐπελάθετό μου ἡμέρας ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός

33 τί ἔτι καλὸν ἐπιτηδεύσεις ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς σου τοῦ ζητῆσαι ἀγάπησιν οὐχ οὕτως ἀλλὰ καὶ σὺ ἐπονηρεύσω τοῦ μιᾶναι τὰς ὁδούς σου

34 καὶ ἐν ταῖς χερσίν σου εὑρέθησαν αἵματα ψυχῶν ἀθῴων οὐκ ἐν διορύγμασιν εὗρον αὐτούς ἀλλ᾽ ἐπὶ πάσῃ δρυί

35 καὶ εἶπας ἀθῷός εἰμι ἀλλὰ ἀποστραφήτω ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ κρίνομαι πρὸς σὲ ἐν τῷ λέγειν σε οὐχ ἥμαρτον

36 τί κατεφρόνησας σφόδρα τοῦ δευτερῶσαι τὰς ὁδούς σου καὶ ἀπὸ Αἰγύπτου καταισχυνθήσῃ καθὼς κατῃσχύνθης ἀπὸ Ασσουρ

37 ὅτι καὶ ἐντεῦθεν ἐξελεύσῃ καὶ αἱ χεῖρές σου ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς σου ὅτι ἀπώσατο κύριος τὴν ἐλπίδα σου καὶ οὐκ εὐοδωθήσῃ ἐν αὐτῇ

1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

2 [Vade, et clama in auribus Jerusalem, dicens:
Hæc dicit Dominus:
Recordatus sum tui, miserans adolescentiam tuam,
et caritatem desponsationis tuæ,
quando secuta es me in deserto,
in terra quæ non seminatur.

3 Sanctus Israël Domino,
primitiæ frugum ejus:
omnes qui devorant eum delinquunt:
mala venient super eos,
dicit Dominus.

4 Audite verbum Domini, domus Jacob,
et omnes cognationes domus Israël.

5 Hæc dicit Dominus:
Quid invenerunt patres vestri in me iniquitatis,
quia elongaverunt a me,
et ambulaverunt post vanitatem,
et vani facti sunt?

6 Et non dixerunt: Ubi est Dominus
qui ascendere nos fecit de terra Ægypti;
qui traduxit nos per desertum,
per terram inhabitabilem et inviam,
per terram sitis, et imaginem mortis,
per terram in qua non ambulavit vir,
neque habitavit homo?

7 Et induxi vos in terram Carmeli,
ut comederetis fructum ejus et optima illius:
et ingressi contaminastis terram meam,
et hæreditatem meam posuistis in abominationem.

8 Sacerdotes non dixerunt: Ubi est Dominus?
et tenentes legem nescierunt me,
et pastores prævaricati sunt in me,
et prophetæ prophetaverunt in Baal,
et idola secuti sunt.

9 Propterea adhuc judicio contendam vobiscum, ait Dominus,
et cum filiis vestris disceptabo.

10 Transite ad insulas Cethim, et videte:
et in Cedar mittite, et considerate vehementer:
et videte si factum est hujuscemodi:

11 si mutavit gens deos suos,
et certe ipsi non sunt dii:
populus vero meus mutavit gloriam suam in idolum.

12 Obstupescite, cæli, super hoc,
et portæ ejus, desolamini vehementer, dicit Dominus.

13 Duo enim mala fecit populus meus:
me dereliquerunt fontem aquæ vivæ,
et foderunt sibi cisternas, cisternas dissipatas,
quia continere non valent aquas.

14 Numquid servus est Israël, aut vernaculus?
quare ergo factus est in prædam?

15 Super eum rugierunt leones,
et dederunt vocem suam:
posuerunt terram ejus in solitudinem.
Civitates ejus exustæ sunt,
et non est qui habitet in eis.

16 Filii quoque Mempheos et Taphnes
constupraverunt te usque ad verticem.

17 Numquid non istud factum est tibi,
quia dereliquisti Dominum Deum tuum
eo tempore quo ducebat te per viam?

18 Et nunc quid tibi vis in via Ægypti,
ut bibas aquam turbidam?
et quid tibi cum via Assyriorum,
ut bibas aquam fluminis?

19 Arguet te malitia tua,
et aversio tua increpabit te.
Scito et vide quia malum et amarum est
reliquisse te Dominum Deum tuum,
et non esse timorem mei apud te,
dicit Dominus Deus exercituum.

20 A sæculo confregisti jugum meum:
rupisti vincula mea,
et dixisti: Non serviam.
In omni enim colle sublimi,
et sub omni ligno frondoso,
tu prosternebaris meretrix.

21 Ego autem plantavi te vineam electam,
omne semen verum:
quomodo ergo conversa es mihi in pravum,
vinea aliena?

22 Si laveris te nitro,
et multiplicaveris tibi herbam borith,
maculata es in iniquitate tua coram me,
dicit Dominus Deus.

23 Quomodo dicis: Non sum polluta;
post Baalim non ambulavi?
Vide vias tuas in convalle;
scito quid feceris:
cursor levis explicans vias suas.

24 Onager assuetus in solitudine,
in desiderio animæ suæ attraxit ventum amoris sui:
nullus avertet eam:
omnes qui quærunt eam non deficient:
in menstruis ejus invenient eam.

25 Prohibe pedem tuum a nuditate,
et guttur tuum a siti.
Et dixisti: Desperavi: nequaquam faciam:
adamavi quippe alienos,
et post eos ambulabo.]

26 [Quomodo confunditur fur quando deprehenditur,
sic confusi sunt domus Israël,
ipsi et reges eorum,
principes, et sacerdotes, et prophetæ eorum,

27 dicentes ligno: Pater meus es tu:
et lapidi: Tu me genuisti.
Verterunt ad me tergum et non faciem,
et in tempore afflictionis suæ dicent:
Surge, et libera nos.

28 Ubi sunt dii tui quos fecisti tibi?
surgant, et liberent te in tempore afflictionis tuæ:
secundum numerum quippe civitatum tuarum erant dii tui, Juda.

29 Quid vultis mecum judicio contendere?
omnes dereliquistis me, dicit Dominus.

30 Frustra percussi filios vestros:
disciplinam non receperunt.
Devoravit gladius vester prophetas vestros:
quasi leo vastator

31 generatio vestra.
Videte verbum Domini:
numquid solitudo factus sum Israëli,
aut terra serotina?
quare ergo dixit populus meus: Recessimus;
non veniemus ultra ad te?

32 Numquid obliviscetur virgo ornamenti sui,
aut sponsa fasciæ pectoralis suæ?
populus vero meus oblitus est mei diebus innumeris.

33 Quid niteris bonam ostendere viam tuam
ad quærendam dilectionem,
quæ insuper et malitias tuas docuisti vias tuas,

34 et in alis tuis inventus est sanguis animarum pauperum et innocentum?
non in fossis inveni eos,
sed in omnibus quæ supra memoravi.

35 Et dixisti: Absque peccato et innocens ego sum,
et propterea avertatur furor tuus a me.
Ecce ego judicio contendam tecum,
eo quod dixeris: Non peccavi.

36 Quam vilis facta es nimis, iterans vias tuas!
et ab Ægypto confunderis,
sicut confusa es ab Assur.

37 Nam et ab ista egredieris,
et manus tuæ erunt super caput tuum:
quoniam obtrivit Dominus confidentiam tuam,
et nihil habebis prosperum in ea.]
