| 1 καὶ ἤκουσεν Σαφατιας υἱὸς Μαθαν καὶ Γοδολιας υἱὸς Πασχωρ καὶ Ιωαχαλ υἱὸς Σελεμιου τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐλάλει Ιερεμιας ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν λέγων 2 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ καὶ ὁ ἐκπορευόμενος πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους ζήσεται καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς εὕρεμα καὶ ζήσεται 3 ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος παραδιδομένη παραδοθήσεται ἡ πόλις αὕτη εἰς χεῖρας δυνάμεως βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ συλλήμψεται αὐτήν 4 καὶ εἶπαν τῷ βασιλεῖ ἀναιρεθήτω δὴ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος ὅτι αὐτὸς ἐκλύει τὰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀνθρώπων τῶν πολεμούντων τῶν καταλειπομένων ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ τὰς χεῖρας παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ λαλῶν πρὸς αὐτοὺς κατὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους ὅτι ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος οὐ χρησμολογεῖ εἰρήνην τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ ἀλλ' ἢ πονηρά 5 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐν χερσὶν ὑμῶν ὅτι οὐκ ἠδύνατο ὁ βασιλεὺς πρὸς αὐτούς 6 καὶ ἔρριψαν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν λάκκον Μελχιου υἱοῦ τοῦ βασιλέως ὃς ἦν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ ἐχάλασαν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν λάκκον καὶ ἐν τῷ λάκκῳ οὐκ ἦν ὕδωρ ἀλλ' ἢ βόρβορος καὶ ἦν ἐν τῷ βορβόρῳ 7 καὶ ἤκουσεν Αβδεμελεχ ὁ Αἰθίοψ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν οἰκίᾳ τοῦ βασιλέως ὅτι ἔδωκαν Ιερεμιαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἦν ἐν τῇ πύλῃ Βενιαμιν 8 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἐλάλησεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ εἶπεν 9 ἐπονηρεύσω ἃ ἐποίησας τοῦ ἀποκτεῖναι τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦτον ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ λιμοῦ ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶν ἔτι ἄρτοι ἐν τῇ πόλει 10 καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Αβδεμελεχ λέγων λαβὲ εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου ἐντεῦθεν τριάκοντα ἀνθρώπους καὶ ἀνάγαγε αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνῃ 11 καὶ ἔλαβεν Αβδεμελεχ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ὑπόγειον καὶ ἔλαβεν ἐκεῖθεν παλαιὰ ῥάκη καὶ παλαιὰ σχοινία καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὰ πρὸς Ιερεμιαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον 12 καὶ εἶπεν ταῦτα θὲς ὑποκάτω τῶν σχοινίων καὶ ἐποίησεν Ιερεμιας οὕτως 13 καὶ εἵλκυσαν αὐτὸν τοῖς σχοινίοις καὶ ἀνήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ιερεμιας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς | 1 Now Saphatias the son of Mathan, and Gedelias the son of Phassur, and Juchal the son of Selemias, and Phassur the son of Melchias heard the words that Jeremias spoke to all the people, saying: 2 Thus says the Lord: Whosoever shall remain in this city, shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence: but he that shall go forth to the Chaldeans, shall live, and his life shall be safe, and he shall live. 3 Thus says the Lord: This city shall surely be delivered into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it. 4 And the princes said to the king. We beseech you that this man may be put to death: for on purpose he weakens the hands of the men of war, that remain in this city, and the hands of the people, speaking to them according to these words: for this man seeks not peace to this people, but evil. 5 And King Sedecias said: Behold he is in your hands: for it is not lawful for the king to deny you anything. 6 Then they took Jeremias and cast him into the dungeon of Melchias the son of Amelech, which was in the entry of the prison: and they let down Jeremias by ropes into the dungeon, wherein there was no water, but mire. And Jeremias sunk into the mire. 7 Now Abdemelech the Ethiopian, an eunuch that was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremias in the dungeon: but the king was sitting in the gate of Benjamin. 8 And Abdemelech went out of the king's house, and spoke to the king, saying: 9 My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done against Jeremiah the prophet, casting him into the dungeon to die there with hunger, for there is no more bread in the city. 10 Then the king commanded Abdemelech the Ethiopian, saying: Take from hence thirty men with you, and draw up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die. 11 So Abdemelech taking the men with him, went into the king's house that was under the storehouse: and he took from thence old rags, and old rotten things, and he let them down by cords to Jeremias into the dungeon. 12 And Abdemelech the Ethiopian said to Jeremias: Put these old rags and these rent and rotten things under your arms, and upon the cords: and Jeremias did so. 13 And they drew up Jeremias with the cords, and brought him forth out of the dungeon. And Jeremias remained in the entry of the prison. | 1 Audivit autem Saphatias filius Mathan, et Gedelias filius Phassur, et Juchal filius Selemiæ, et Phassur filius Melchiæ, sermones quos Jeremias loquebatur ad omnem populum, dicens: 2 Hæc dicit Dominus : Quicumque manserit in civitate hac, morietur gladio, et fame, et peste : qui autem profugerit ad Chaldæos, vivet, et erit anima ejus sospes et vivens. 3 Hæc dicit Dominus : Tradendo tradetur civitas hæc in manu exercitus regis Babylonis, et capiet eam. 4 Et dixerunt principes regi : Rogamus ut occidatur homo iste : de industria enim dissolvit manus virorum bellantium qui remanserunt in civitate hac, et manus universi populi, loquens ad eos juxta verba hæc : siquidem homo iste non quærit pacem populo huic, sed malum. 5 Et dixit rex Sedecias : Ecce ipse in manibus vestris est : nec enim fas est regem vobis quidquam negare. 6 Tulerunt ergo Jeremiam, et projecerunt eum in lacum Melchiæ filii Amelech, qui erat in vestibulo carceris : et submiserunt Jeremiam funibus in lacum, in quo non erat aqua, sed lutum : descendit itaque Jeremias in cœnum. 7 Audivit autem Abdemelech Æthiops, vir eunuchus, qui erat in domo regis, quod misissent Jeremiam in lacum. Porro rex sedebat in porta Benjamin: 8 et egressus est Abdemelech de domo regis, et locutus est ad regem, dicens: 9 Domine mi rex, male fecerunt viri isti omnia quæcumque perpetrarunt contra Jeremiam prophetam, mittentes eum in lacum, ut moriatur ibi fame : non sunt enim panes ultra in civitate. 10 Præcepit itaque rex Abdemelech Æthiopi, dicens : Tolle tecum hinc triginta viros, et leva Jeremiam prophetam de lacu, antequam moriatur. 11 Assumptis ergo Abdemelech secum viris, ingressus est domum regis, quæ erat sub cellario, et tulit inde veteres pannos, et antiqua quæ computruerant, et submisit ea ad Jeremiam in lacum per funiculos. 12 Dixitque Abdemelech Æthiops ad Jeremiam : Pone veteres pannos, et hæc scissa et putrida, sub cubito manuum tuarum, et super funes. Fecit ergo Jeremias sic, 13 et extraxerunt Jeremiam funibus, et eduxerunt eum de lacu : mansit autem Jeremias in vestibulo carceris. |
| 14 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν πρὸς ἑαυτὸν εἰς οἰκίαν ασελισι τὴν ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς ἐρωτήσω σε λόγον καὶ μὴ δὴ κρύψῃς ἀπ' ἐμοῦ ῥῆμα 15 καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐὰν ἀναγγείλω σοι οὐχὶ θανάτῳ με θανατώσεις καὶ ἐὰν συμβουλεύσω σοι οὐ μὴ ἀκούσῃς μου 16 καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς λέγων ζῇ κύριος ὃς ἐποίησεν ἡμῖν τὴν ψυχὴν ταύτην εἰ ἀποκτενῶ σε καὶ εἰ δώσω σε εἰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀνθρώπων τούτων 17 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ιερεμιας οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἐὰν ἐξελθὼν ἐξέλθῃς πρὸς ἡγεμόνας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχή σου καὶ ἡ πόλις αὕτη οὐ μὴ κατακαυθῇ ἐν πυρί καὶ ζήσῃ σὺ καὶ ἡ οἰκία σου 18 καὶ ἐὰν μὴ ἐξέλθῃς δοθήσεται ἡ πόλις αὕτη εἰς χεῖρας τῶν Χαλδαίων καὶ καύσουσιν αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ σωθῇς 19 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Ιερεμια ἐγὼ λόγον ἔχω τῶν Ιουδαίων τῶν πεφευγότων πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους μὴ δώσειν με εἰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν καὶ καταμωκήσονταί μου 20 καὶ εἶπεν Ιερεμιας οὐ μὴ παραδῶσίν σε ἄκουσον τὸν λόγον κυρίου ὃν ἐγὼ λέγω πρὸς σέ καὶ βέλτιον ἔσται σοι καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχή σου 21 καὶ εἰ μὴ θέλεις σὺ ἐξελθεῖν οὗτος ὁ λόγος ὃν ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος 22 καὶ ἰδοὺ πᾶσαι αἱ γυναῖκες αἱ καταλειφθεῖσαι ἐν οἰκίᾳ βασιλέως Ιουδα ἐξήγοντο πρὸς ἄρχοντας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ αὗται ἔλεγον ἠπάτησάν σε καὶ δυνήσονταί σοι ἄνδρες εἰρηνικοί σου καὶ καταλύσουσιν ἐν ὀλισθήμασιν πόδας σου ἀπέστρεψαν ἀπὸ σοῦ 23 καὶ τὰς γυναῖκάς σου καὶ τὰ τέκνα σου ἐξάξουσιν πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ σωθῇς ὅτι ἐν χειρὶ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος συλλημφθήσῃ καὶ ἡ πόλις αὕτη κατακαυθήσεται 24 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς ἄνθρωπος μὴ γνώτω ἐκ τῶν λόγων τούτων καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς 25 καὶ ἐὰν ἀκούσωσιν οἱ ἄρχοντες ὅτι ἐλάλησά σοι καὶ ἔλθωσιν πρὸς σὲ καὶ εἴπωσίν σοι ἀνάγγειλον ἡμῖν τί ἐλάλησέν σοι ὁ βασιλεύς μὴ κρύψῃς ἀφ' ἡμῶν καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀνέλωμέν σε καὶ τί ἐλάλησεν πρὸς σὲ ὁ βασιλεύς 26 καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς ῥίπτω ἐγὼ τὸ ἔλεός μου κατ' ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ βασιλέως πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἀποστρέψαι με εἰς οἰκίαν Ιωναθαν ἀποθανεῖν ἐκεῖ 27 καὶ ἤλθοσαν πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες πρὸς Ιερεμιαν καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτόν καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν αὐτοῖς κατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους οὓς ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς καὶ ἀπεσιώπησαν ὅτι οὐκ ἠκούσθη λόγος κυρίου 28 καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ιερεμιας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς ἕως χρόνου οὗ συνελήμφθη Ιερουσαλημ | 14 And King Sedecias sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet to him to the third gate, that was in the house of the Lord: and the king said to Jeremias: I will ask you a thing, hide nothing from me. 15 Then Jeremias said to Sedecias: If I shall declare it to you, will you not put me to death? And if I give you counsel, you will not hearken to me. 16 Then King Sedecias swore to Jeremias, in private, saying: As the Lord lives, that, made us this soul, I will not put you to death, nor will I deliver you into the hands of these men that seek your life. 17 And Jeremias said to Sedecias: Thus says the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: If you will take a resolution and go out to the princes of the king of Babylon, your soul shall live, and this city shall not be burnt with fire: and you shall be safe, and your house. 18 But if you will not go out to the princes of the king of Babylon, this city shall be delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire: and you shall not escape out of their hand. 19 And King Sedecias said to Jeremias: I am afraid because of the Jews that are fled over to the Chaldeans: lest I should be delivered into their hands, and they should abuse me. 20 But Jeremias answered: They shall not deliver you: hearken, I beseech you, to the word of the Lord, which I speak to you, and it shall be well with you, and your soul shall live. 21 But if you will not go forth, this is the word which the Lord has shown me: 22 Behold all the women that are left in the house of the king of Juda, shall be brought out to the princes of the king of Babylon: and they shall say: Your men of peace have deceived you, and have prevailed against you, they have plunged your feet in the mire, and in a slippery place and they have departed from you. 23 And all your wives, and your children shall be brought out to the Chaldeans, and you shall not escape their hands, but you shall be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and he shall burn this city with fire. 24 Then Sedecias said to Jeremias: Let no man know these words, and you shall not die. 25 But if the princes shall hear that I have spoken with you, and shall come to you, and say to you: Tell us what you have said to the king, hide it not from us, and we will not kill you: and also what the king said to you: 26 You shall say to them: I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not command me to be carried back into the house of Jonathan, to die there. 27 So all the princes came to Jeremias, and asked him: and he spoke to them according to all the words that the king had commanded him: and they left him: for nothing had been heard. 28 But Jeremias remained in the entry of the prison, until the day that Jerusalem was taken: and it came to pass that Jerusalem was taken. | 14 Et misit rex Sedecias, et tulit ad se Jeremiam prophetam ad ostium tertium quod erat in domo Domini : et dixit rex ad Jeremiam : Interrogo ego te sermonem, ne abscondas a me aliquid. 15 Dixit autem Jeremias ad Sedeciam : Si annuntiavero tibi, numquid non interficies me? et si consilium dedero tibi, non me audies. 16 Juravit ergo rex Sedecias Jeremiæ clam, dicens : Vivit Dominus, qui fecit nobis animam hanc, si occidero te, et si tradidero te in manus virorum istorum qui quærunt animam tuam. 17 Et dixit Jeremias ad Sedeciam : Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël : Si profectus exieris ad principes regis Babylonis, vivet anima tua, et civitas hæc non succendetur igni : et salvus eris tu, et domus tua. 18 Si autem non exieris ad principes regis Babylonis, tradetur civitas hæc in manus Chaldæorum, et succendent eam igni : et tu non effugies de manu eorum. 19 Et dixit rex Sedecias ad Jeremiam : Sollicitus sum propter Judæos qui transfugerunt ad Chaldæos, ne forte tradar in manus eorum, et illudant mihi. 20 Respondit autem Jeremias : Non te tradent. Audi, quæso, vocem Domini, quam ego loquor ad te, et bene tibi erit, et vivet anima tua. 21 Quod si nolueris egredi, iste est sermo quem ostendit mihi Dominus: 22 ecce omnes mulieres quæ remanserunt in domo regis Juda educentur ad principes regis Babylonis, et ipsæ dicent : Seduxerunt te, et prævaluerunt adversum te, viri pacifici tui : demerserunt in cœno et in lubrico pedes tuos, et recesserunt a te. 23 Et omnes uxores tuæ et filii tui educentur ad Chaldæos : et non effugies manus eorum, sed in manu regis Babylonis capieris, et civitatem hanc comburet igni. 24 Dixit ergo Sedecias ad Jeremiam : Nullus sciat verba hæc, et non morieris. 25 Si autem audierint principes quia locutus sum tecum, et venerint ad te, et dixerint tibi : Indica nobis quid locutus sis cum rege : ne celes nos, et non te interficiemus : et quid locutus est tecum rex: 26 dices ad eos : Prostravi ego preces meas coram rege, ne me reduci juberet in domum Jonathan, et ibi morerer. 27 Venerunt ergo omnes principes ad Jeremiam, et interrogaverunt eum, et locutus est eis juxta omnia verba quæ præceperat ei rex : et cessaverunt ab eo : nihil enim fuerat auditum. 28 Mansit vero Jeremias in vestibulo carceris usque ad diem quo capta est Jerusalem: et factum est ut caperetur Jerusalem. |
