Jeremiah 4:30 Heb. eyes

και συ τι ποιησεις εαν περιβαλη κοκκινον και κοσμηση κοσμω χρυσω και εαν εγχριση στιβι τους οφθαλμους σου εις ματην ο ωραισμος σου απωσαντο σε οι ερασται σου την ψυχην σου ζητουσιν

Behold, I will bring a nation on you from far away, house of Israel,” says Yahweh. “It is a mighty nation. It is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you don’t know and don’t understand what they say.

Lo, I will bring H935 (HiphPtc) a nation H1471 upon you from far, H4801 O house H1004 of Israel, H3478 saith H5002 (QalPasPtc) the Lord: H3068 it is a mighty H386 nation, H1471 it is an ancient H5769 nation, H1471 a nation H1471 whose language H3956 thou knowest H3045 (QalImpf) not, neither understandest H8085 (QalImpf) what they say. H1696 (PielImpf)

ιδου εγω επαγω εφ υμας εθνος πορρωθεν οικος ισραηλ λεγει κυριος εθνος ου ουκ ακουση της φωνης της γλωσσης αυτου

It will happen when you say, ‘Why has Yahweh our God done all these things to us?’ Then you shall say to them, ‘Just as you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your land, so you will serve strangers in a land that is not yours.’

And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, H559 (QalImpf) Wherefore H8478 H4100 doeth H6213 (QalPerf) the Lord H3068 our God H430 all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer H559 (QalPerf) them, Like as ye have forsaken H5800 (QalPerf) me, and served H5647 (QalImpf) strange H5236 gods H430 in your land, H776 so shall ye serve H5647 (QalImpf) strangers H2114 (QalPtc) in a land H776 that is not yours.

και εσται οταν ειπητε τινος ενεκεν εποιησεν κυριος ο θεος ημων ημιν απαντα ταυτα και ερεις αυτοις ανθ ων εδουλευσατε θεοις αλλοτριοις εν τη γη υμων ουτως δουλευσετε αλλοτριοις εν γη ουχ υμων

The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority; and my people love to have it so. What will you do in the end of it?

the prophets H5030 prophesy H5012 (NiphPerf) falsely, H8267 and the priests H3548 bear rule^§ H7287 (QalImpf) by their means; H3027 and my people H5971 love H157 (QalPerf) to have it so: and what will ye do H6213 (QalImpf) in the end H319 thereof?

Jeremiah 5:31 Or, take into their hands

οι προφηται προφητευουσιν αδικα και οι ιερεις επεκροτησαν ταις χερσιν αυτων και ο λαος μου ηγαπησεν ουτως και τι ποιησετε εις τα μετα ταυτα

To what purpose does frankincense from Sheba come to me, and the sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, and your sacrifices are not pleasing to me.”

To what purpose cometh H935 (QalImpf) there to me incense H3828 from Sheba, H7614 and the sweet H2896 cane H7070 from a far H4801 country? H776 your burnt offerings H5930 are not acceptable, H7522 nor your sacrifices H2077 sweet H6149 (QalPerf) unto me.

ινα τι μοι λιβανον εκ σαβα φερετε και κινναμωμον εκ γης μακροθεν τα ολοκαυτωματα υμων ουκ εισιν δεκτα και αι θυσιαι υμων ουχ ηδυναν μοι

Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

Seest H7200 (QalActPtc) thou not what they do H6213 (QalActPtc) in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 and in the streets H2351 of Jerusalem? H3389

η ουχ ορας τι αυτοι ποιουσιν εν ταις πολεσιν ιουδα και εν ταις οδοις ιερουσαλημ

I listened and heard, but they didn’t say what is right. No one repents of his wickedness, saying, “What have I done?” Everyone turns to his course, as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.

I hearkened H7181 (HiphPerf) and heard, H8085 (QalImpf) but they spake not aright: H1696 (PielImpf) no man H376 repented H5162 (NiphPtc) him of H5921 his wickedness, H7451 saying, H559 (QalInf) What have I done? H6213 (QalPerf) every one turned H7725 (QalPerf) to his course, H4794 as the horse H5483 rusheth H7857 (QalActPtc) into the battle. H4421

ενωτισασθε δη και ακουσατε ουχ ουτως λαλησουσιν ουκ εστιν ανθρωπος μετανοων απο της κακιας αυτου λεγων τι εποιησα διελιπεν ο τρεχων απο του δρομου αυτου ως ιππος καθιδρος εν χρεμετισμω αυτου

The wise men are disappointed. They are dismayed and trapped. Behold, they have rejected Yahweh’s word. What kind of wisdom is in them?

The wise H2450 men are ashamed,^§ H3001 (HiphPerf) they are dismayed H2865 (QalPerf) and taken: H3920 (NiphImpf) lo, they have rejected H3988 (QalPerf) the word H1697 of the Lord; H3068 and what wisdom H2451 is in them?^§

Jeremiah 8:9a Or, have they been ashamed, etc.
Jeremiah 8:9b Heb. the wisdom of what thing

ησχυνθησαν σοφοι και επτοηθησαν και εαλωσαν οτι τον λογον κυριου απεδοκιμασαν σοφια τις εστιν εν αυτοις

“Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves! Let’s enter into the fortified cities, and let’s be silent there; for Yahweh our God has put us to silence, and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against Yahweh.

Why do we sit still? H3427 (QalActPtc) assemble H622 (NiphImpv) yourselves, and let us enter H935 (QalImpf) into the defenced H4013 cities, H5892 and let us be silent H1826 (NiphImpf) there: for the Lord H3068 our God H430 hath put us to silence, H1826 (HiphPerf) and given us water H4325 of gall^§ H7219 to drink, H8248 (HiphImpf) because we have sinned H2398 (QalPerf) against the Lord. H3068

Jeremiah 8:14 Or, poison

επι τι ημεις καθημεθα συναχθητε και εισελθωμεν εις τας πολεις τας οχυρας και απορριφωμεν οτι ο θεος απερριψεν ημας και εποτισεν ημας υδωρ χολης οτι ημαρτομεν εναντιον αυτου

Who is wise enough to understand this? Who is he to whom the mouth of Yahweh has spoken, that he may declare it? Why has the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that no one passes through?

Who is the wise H2450 man, H376 that may understand H995 (QalImpf) this? and who is he to whom the mouth H6310 of the Lord H3068 hath spoken, H1696 (PielPerf) that he may declare H5046 (HiphImpf) it, for what the land H776 perisheth H6 (QalPerf) and is burned up H3341 (NiphPerf) like a wilderness, H4057 that none passeth through? H5674 (QalActPtc)

^[9:11] τις ο ανθρωπος ο συνετος και συνετω τουτο και ω λογος στοματος κυριου προς αυτον αναγγειλατω υμιν ενεκεν τινος απωλετο η γη ανηφθη ως ερημος παρα το μη διοδευεσθαι αυτην
