Deuteronomy 1

These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on this side Jordan in the desert towards the west near the Red Sea, between Pharan Tophol, and Lobon, and Aulon, and the gold works.

ΟΥΤΟΙ οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς παντὶ Ἰσραὴλ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ πρὸς δυσμαῖς πλησίον τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης ἀναμέσον Φαρὰν Τοφὸλ, καὶ Λοβὸν, καὶ Αὐλῶν, καὶ καταχρύσεα.

It is a journey of eleven days from Choreb to mount Seir as far as Cades Barne.

Ἕνδεκα ἡμερῶν ἐκ Χωρὴβ ὁδὸς ἐπʼ ὄρος

And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, Moses spoke to all the children of Israel, according to all things which the Lord commanded him for them:

Σηεὶρ ἕως Κάδης Βαρνή. Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ τεσσαρακοστῷ ἔτει ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς, ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο Κύριος αὐτῷ πρὸς αὐτούς· μετὰ τὸ πατάξαι

after he had smitten Seon king of the Amorites who dwelt in Esebon, and Og the king of Basan who dwelt in Astaroth and in Edrain;

Σηὼν βασιλέα Ἀμοῤῥαίων τὸν κατοικήσαντα ἐν Ἐσεβὼν, καὶ τὸν Ὢγ βασιλέα τῆς Βασὰν τὸν κατοικήσαντα ἐν Ἀσταρὼθ καὶ ἐν

beyond Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,

Ἐδραῒν, ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐν γῇ Μωὰβ, ἤρξατο Μωυσῆς διασαφῆσαι τὸν νόμον τοῦτον, λέγων,

The Lord your God spoke to us in Choreb, saying, Let it suffice you to have dwelt so long in this mountain.

Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλάλησεν ἡμῖν ἐν Χωρὴβ, λέγων, ἰκανούσθω ὑμῖν κατοικεῖν ἐν τῷ ὄρει τούτῳ.

Turn ye and depart and enter into the mountain of the Amorites, and go to all that dwell near about Araba, to the mountain and the plain and to the south, and the land of the Chananites near the sea, and Antilibanus, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.

Ἐπιστράφητε καὶ ἀπάρατε ὑμεῖς καὶ εἰσπορεύεσθε εἰς ὄρος Ἀμοῤῥαίων, καὶ πρὸς πάντας τοὺς περιοίκους Ἄραβα, εἰς ὄρος καὶ πεδίον, καὶ πρὸς Λίβα, καὶ παραλίαν γῆν Χαναναίων, καὶ Ἀντιλίβανον ἕως τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ μεγάλου, ποταμοῦ Εὐφράτου.

Behold, God has delivered the land before you; go in and inherit the land, which I sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give it to them and to their seed after them.

Ἴδετε, παραδέδωκεν ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν τὴν γῆν· εἰσπορευθέντες κληρονομήσατε τὴν γῆν, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν τῷ Ἁβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰσκὼβ, δοῦναι αὐτοῖς καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτῶν μετʼ αὐτούς.

And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I shall not be able by myself to bear you.

Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, λέγων, οὐ δυνήσομαι μόνος φέρειν ὑμᾶς.

The Lord your God has multiplied you, and, behold, ye are to-day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐπλήθυνεν ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἰδού ἐστε σήμερον ὡσεὶ τὰ ἄστρα τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τῷ πλήθει.

The Lord God of your fathers add to you a thousand-fold more than you are, and bless you as he has spoken to you.

Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν προσθείῃ ὑμῖν ὡς ἐστὲ χιλιοπλασίως, καὶ εὐλογήσαι ὑμᾶς καθότι ἐλάλησεν ὑμῖν.

How shall I alone be able to bear your labour, and your burden, and your gainsayings?

Πῶς δυνήσομαι μόνος φέρειν τὸν κόπον ὑμῶν καὶ τὴν ὑπόστασιν ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς ἀντιλογίας ὑμῶν;

Take to yourselves wise and understanding and prudent men for your tribes, and I will set your leaders over you.

Δότε ἑαυτοῖς ἄνδρας σοφοὺς καὶ ἐπιστήμονας καὶ συνετοὺς εἰς τὰς φυλὰς ὑμῶν, καὶ καταστήσω ἐφʼ ὑμῶν, ἡγουμένους ὑμῶν.

And ye answered me and said, The thing which thou hast told us is good to do.

Καὶ ἀπεκρίθητέ μοι, καὶ εἴπατε, καλὸν τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐλάλησας ποιῆσαι.

So I took of you wise and understanding and prudent men, and I set them to rule over you as rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, and rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens, and officers to your judges.

Καὶ ἔλαβον ἐξ ὑμῶν ἄνδρας σοφοὺς καὶ ἐπιστήμονας καὶ συνετούς, καὶ κατέστησα αὐτοὺς ἡγεῖσθαι ἐφʼ ὑμῶν χιλιάρχους, καὶ ἑκατοντάρχους, καὶ πεντηκοντάρχους, καὶ δεκάρχους, καὶ γραμματοεισαγωγεῖς τοῖς κριταῖς ὑμῶν·

And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear causes between your brethren, and judge rightly between a man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.

Καὶ ἐνετειλάμην τοῖς κριταῖς ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, λέγων, διακούετε ἀναμέσον τῶν ἀδελφῶν ὑμῶν, καὶ κρίνατε δικαίως ἀναμέσον ἀνδρὸς, καὶ ἀναμέσον ἀδελφοῦ, καὶ ἀναμέσον προσηλύτου αὐτοῦ.

Thou shalt not have respect to persons in judgment, thou shalt judge small and great equally; thou shalt not shrink from before the person of a man, for the judgment is God's; and whatsoever matter shall be too hard for you, ye shall bring it to me, and I will hear it.

Οὐκ ἐπιγνώσῃ πρόσωπον ἐν κρίσει, κατὰ τὸν μικρὸν καὶ κατὰ τὸν μέγαν κρινεῖς, οὐ μὴ ὑποστείλῃ πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι ἡ κρίσις τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐστι· καὶ τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐὰν σκληρὸν ἠ· ἀφʼ ὑμῶν, ἀνοίσετε αὐτὸ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, καὶ ἀκούσομαι αὐτό.

And I charged upon you at that time all the commands which ye shall perform.

Καὶ ἐνετειλάμην ὑμῖν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ πάντας τοὺς λόγους, οὓς ποιήσετε.

And we departed from Choreb, and went through all that great wilderness and terrible, which ye saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite, as the Lord our God charged us, and we came as far as Cades Barne.

Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐκ Χωρὴβ ἐπορεύθημεν πᾶσαν τὴν ἔρημον τὴν μεγάλην καὶ τὴν φοβερὰν ἐκείνην, ἣν εἴδετε, ὁδὸν ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου, καθότι ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἤλθομεν ἕως Κάδης Βαρνή.

And I said to you, Ye have come as far as the mountain of the Amorite, which the Lord our God gives to you:

Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ἤλθατε ἕως τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου, ὃ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν δίδωσιν ὑμῖν.

behold, the Lord your God has delivered to us the land before you: go up and inherit it as the Lord God of your fathers said to you; fear not, neither be afraid.

Ἴδετε, παραδέδωκεν ὑμῖν Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν τὴν γῆν· ἀναβάντες κληρονομήσατε ὃν τρόπον εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν ὑμῖν· μὴ φοβεῖσθε, μηδὲ δειλιάσητε.

And ye all came to me, and said, Let us send men before us, and let them go up to the land for us; and let them bring back to us a report of the way by which we shall go up, and of the cities into which we shall enter.

Καὶ προσήλθατέ μοι πάντες, καὶ εἴπατε, Ἀποστείλωμεν ἄνδρας προτέρους ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐφοδευσάτωσαν ἡμῖν τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἀναγγειλάτωσαν ἡμῖν ἀπόκρισιν τὴν ὁδὸν διʼ ἧς ἀναβησόμεθα ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ τὰς πόλεις εἰς ἃς εἰσπορευσόμεθα εἰς αὐτάς.

And the saying pleased me: and I took of you twelve men, one man of a tribe.

Καὶ ἤρεσεν ἐναντίον μου τὸ ῥῆμα· καὶ ἔλαβον ἐξ ὑμῶν δώδεκα ἄνδρας, ἄνδρα ἕνα κατά φυλήν.

And they turned and went up to the mountain, and they came as far as the valley of the cluster, and surveyed it.

Καὶ ἐπιστραφέντες ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸ ὄρος, καὶ ἤλθοσαν ἕως φάραγγος βότρυος, καὶ κατεσκόπευσαν αὐτήν.

And they took in their hands of the fruit of the land, and brought it to you, and said, The land is good which the Lord our God gives us.

Καὶ ἐλάβοσαν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ καρποῦ τῆς γῆς, καὶ κατήνεγκαν πρὸς ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔλεγον, Ἀγαθὴ ἡ γῆ, ἣν Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν δίδωσιν ἡμῖν.

Yet ye would not go up, but rebelled against the words of the Lord our God.

Καὶ οὐκ ἠθελήσατε ἀναβῆναι, ἀλλʼ ἠπειθήσατε τῷ ῥήματι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.

And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us.

Καὶ διεγογγύζετε ἐν ταῖς σκηναῖς ὑμῶν, καὶ εἴπατε, διὰ τὸ μισεῖν Κύριον ἡμᾶς, ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου παραδοῦναι ἡμᾶς εἰς χεῖρας Ἀμοῤῥαίων, ἐξολοθρεῦσαι ἡμᾶς.

Whither do we go up? and your brethren drew away your heart, saying, It is a great nation and populous, and mightier than we; and there are cities great and walled up to heaven: moreover we saw there the sons of the giants.

Ποῦ ἡμεῖς ἀναβαίνομεν; οἱ δὲ ἀδελφοὶ ὑμῶν ἀπέστησαν τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν, λέγοντες, ἔθνος μέγα καὶ πολὺ καὶ δυνατώτερον ἡμῶν, καὶ πόλεις μεγάλαι καὶ τετειχισμέναι ἕως τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· ἀλλὰ καὶ υἱοὺς γιγάντων ἑωράκαμεν ἐκεῖ.

And I said to you, Fear not, neither be ye afraid of them;

Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, μὴ πτήξητε, μηδὲ φοβηθῆτε ἀπʼ αὐτῶν.

the Lord your God who goes before your face, he shall fight against them together with you effectually, according to all that he wrought for you in the land of Egypt;

Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ὁ προπορευόμενος πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν, αὐτὸς συνεκπολεμήσει αὐτοὺς μεθʼ ὑμῶν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν ὑμῖν ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ταύτῃ ἣν εἴδετε, ὁδὸν ὄρους τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου· ὡς τροφοφορήσαι σε Κύριος ὁ

and in this wilderness which ye saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite; how the Lord thy God will bear thee as a nursling, as if any man should nurse his child, through all the way which ye have gone until ye came to this place.

Θεός σου, ὡς εἴτις τροφοφορήσαι ἄνθρωπος τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν ὁδὸν εἰς ἣν ἐπορεύθητε ἕως ῆλθετε εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον.

And in this matter ye believed not the Lord our God,

Καὶ ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ οὐκ ἐνεπιστεύσατε Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ ἡμῶν,

who goes before you in the way to choose you a place, guiding you in fire by night, shewing you the way by which ye go, and a cloud by day.

ὃς προπορεύεται πρότερος ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκλέγεσθαι ὑμῖν τόπον, ὁδηγῶν ὑμᾶς ἐν πυρὶ νυκτὸς, δεικνύων ὑμῖν τὴν ὁδὸν καθʼ ἣν πορεύεσθε ἐπʼ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐν νεφέλῃ ἡμέρας.

And the Lord heard the voice of your words, and being greatly provoked he sware, saying,

Καὶ ἤκουσε Κύριος τὴν φωνὴν τῶν λόγων ὑμῶν, καὶ παροξυνθεὶς ὤμοσε, λέγων,

Not one of these men shall see this good land, which I sware to their fathers,

εἰ ὄψεταί τις τῶν ἀνδρῶν τούτων τὴν γῆν ἀγαθὴν ταύτην, ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, πλὴν

except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, he shall see it; and to him I will give the land on which he went up, and to his sons, because he attended to the things of the Lord.

Χάλεβ υἱὸς Ἰεφοννὴ, οὗτος ὄψεται αὐτὴν, καὶ τούτῳ δώσω τὴν γῆν ἐφʼ ἣν ἐπέβη, καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ, διὰ τὸ προσκεῖσθαι αὐτὸν τὰ πρὸς Κύριον.

And the Lord was angry with me for your sake, saying, Neither shalt thou by any means enter therein.

Καὶ ἐμοὶ ἐθυμώθη Κύριος διʼ ὑμᾶς, λέγων, οὐδὲ σὺ οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθῃς ἐκεῖ.

Joshua the son of Naue, who stands by thee, he shall enter in there; do thou strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυὴ ὁ παρεστηκώς σοι, οὗτος εἰσελεύσεται ἐκεῖ· αὐτὸν κατίσχυσον, ὅτι αὐτὸς κατακληρονομήσει αὐτὴν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.

And every young child who this day knows not good or evil,—they shall enter therein, and to them I will give it, and they shall inherit it.

Καὶ πᾶν παιδίον νέον ὅστις οὐκ οἶδε σήμερον ἀγαθὸν ἢ κακόν, οὗτοι εἰσελεύσονται ἐκεῖ, καὶ τούτοις δώσω αὐτήν, καὶ αὐτοὶ κληρονομήσουσιν αὐτήν.

And ye turned and marched into the wilderness, in the way by the Red Sea.

Καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐπιστράφεντες ἐστρατοπεδεύσατε εἰς τὴν ἔρημον, ὁδὸν τὴν ἐπὶ τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης.

And ye answered and said, We have sinned before the Lord our God; we will go up and fight according to all that the Lord our God has commanded us: and having taken every one his weapons of war, and being gathered together, ye went up to the mountain.

Καὶ ἀπεκρίθητε, καὶ εἴπατε, ἡμάρτομεν ἔναντι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν· ἡμεῖς ἀναβάντες πολεμήσομεν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἡμῖν· καὶ ἀναλαβόντες ἕκαστος τὰ σκεύη τὰ πολεμικὰ αὐτοῦ, καὶ συναθροισθέντες ἀναβαίνετε εἰς τὸ ὄρος.

And the Lord said to me, Tell them, Ye shall not go up, neither shall ye fight, for I am not with you; thus shall ye not be destroyed before your enemies.

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, εἶπον αὐτοῖς, οὐκ ἀναβήσεσθε οὐδὲ μὴ πολεμήσετε, οὐ γάρ εἰμι μεθʼ ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ συντριβῆτε ἐνώπιον τῶν ἐχθρῶν ὑμῶν.

And I spoke to you, and ye did not hearken to me; and ye transgressed the commandment of the Lord; and ye forced your way and went up into the mountain.

Καὶ ἐλάλησα ὑμῖν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατέ μου· καὶ παρέβητε τὸ ῥῆμα Κυρίου· καὶ παραβιασάμενοι ἀνέβητε εἰς τὸ ὄρος.

And the Amorite who dwelt in that mountain came out to meet you, and pursued you as bees do, and wounded you from Seir to Herma.

Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ Ἀμοῤῥαῖος ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκείνῳ εἰς συνάντησιν ὑμῖν, καὶ κατεδίωξεν ὑμᾶς ὡσεὶ ποιήσαισαν αἱ μέλισσαι, καὶ ἐτίτρωσκον ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ Σηεὶρ ἕως Ἑρμᾶ.

And ye sat down and wept before the Lord our God, and the Lord hearkened not to your voice, neither did he take heed to you.

Καὶ καθίσαντες ἐκλαίετε ἐναντίον Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς ὑμῶν, οὐδὲ προσέσχεν ὑμῖν.

And ye dwelt in Cades many days, as many days as ye dwelt there.

Καὶ ἐνεκάθησθε ἐν Κάδης ἡμέρας πολλάς, ὅσας ποτὲ ἡμέρας ἐνεκάθησθε.
