¹ καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

² υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου στήρισον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη ισραηλ καὶ προφήτευσον ἐπ' αὐτὰ

³ καὶ ἐρεῖς τὰ ὄρη ισραηλ ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου τάδε λέγει κύριος τοῖς ὄρεσιν καὶ τοῖς βουνοῖς καὶ ταῖς φάραγξιν καὶ ταῖς νάπαις ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐφ' ὑμᾶς ῥομφαίαν καὶ ἐξολεθρευθήσεται τὰ ὑψηλὰ ὑμῶν

⁴ καὶ συντριβήσονται τὰ θυσιαστήρια ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ τεμένη ὑμῶν καὶ καταβαλῶ τραυματίας ὑμῶν ἐνώπιον τῶν εἰδώλων ὑμῶν

⁵ καὶ διασκορπιῶ τὰ ὀστᾶ ὑμῶν κύκλῳ τῶν θυσιαστηρίων ὑμῶν

⁶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ κατοικίᾳ ὑμῶν αἱ πόλεις ἐξερημωθήσονται καὶ τὰ ὑψηλὰ ἀφανισθήσεται ὅπως ἐξολεθρευθῇ τὰ θυσιαστήρια ὑμῶν καὶ συντριβήσονται τὰ εἴδωλα ὑμῶν καὶ ἐξαρθήσεται τὰ τεμένη ὑμῶν

⁷ καὶ πεσοῦνται τραυματίαι ἐν μέσῳ ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος

⁸ ἐν τῷ γενέσθαι ἐξ ὑμῶν ἀνασῳζομένους ἐκ ῥομφαίας ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν καὶ ἐν τῷ διασκορπισμῷ ὑμῶν ἐν ταῖς χώραις

⁹ καὶ μνησθήσονταί μου οἱ ἀνασῳζόμενοι ἐξ ὑμῶν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν οὗ ᾐχμαλωτεύθησαν ἐκεῖ ὀμώμοκα τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν τῇ ἐκπορνευούσῃ ἀπ' ἐμοῦ καὶ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτῶν τοῖς πορνεύουσιν ὀπίσω τῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ κόψονται πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς βδελύγμασιν αὐτῶν

¹⁰ καὶ ἐπιγνώσονται διότι ἐγὼ κύριος λελάληκα

¹¹ τάδε λέγει κύριος κρότησον τῇ χειρὶ καὶ ψόφησον τῷ ποδὶ καὶ εἰπόν εὖγε εὖγε ἐπὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς βδελύγμασιν οἴκου ισραηλ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ἐν θανάτῳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ πεσοῦνται

¹² ὁ ἐγγὺς ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσεῖται ὁ δὲ μακρὰν ἐν θανάτῳ τελευτήσει καὶ ὁ περιεχόμενος ἐν λιμῷ συντελεσθήσεται καὶ συντελέσω τὴν ὀργήν μου ἐπ' αὐτούς

¹³ καὶ γνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ κύριος ἐν τῷ εἶναι τοὺς τραυματίας ὑμῶν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν εἰδώλων ὑμῶν κύκλῳ τῶν θυσιαστηρίων ὑμῶν ἐπὶ πάντα βουνὸν ὑψηλὸν καὶ ὑποκάτω δένδρου συσκίου οὗ ἔδωκαν ἐκεῖ ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας πᾶσι τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν

¹⁴ καὶ ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπ' αὐτοὺς καὶ θήσομαι τὴν γῆν εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ εἰς ὄλεθρον ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου δεβλαθα ἐκ πάσης τῆς κατοικίας καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος

¹ Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, Praise his holy name!

² Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don't forget all his benefits;

³ who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases;

⁴ who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies;

⁵ who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

⁶ Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.

⁷ He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

⁸ Yahweh is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

⁹ He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

¹⁰ He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.

¹¹ For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

¹² As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

¹³ Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

¹⁴ For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

¹⁵ As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

¹⁶ For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.

¹⁷ But Yahweh's loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children's children;

¹⁸ to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

¹⁹ Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

²⁰ Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

²¹ Praise Yahweh, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

²² Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul!
