| [1]καὶ ἰδὼν βαλααμ ὅτι καλόν ἐστιν ἔναντι κυρίου εὐλογεῖν τὸν ισραηλ οὐκ ἐπορεύθη κατὰ τὸ εἰωθὸς εἰς συνάντησιν τοῖς οἰωνοῖς καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον |
[1]And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. |
| [2]καὶ ἐξάρας βαλααμ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καθορᾷ τὸν ισραηλ ἐστρατοπεδευκότα κατὰ φυλάς καὶ ἐγένετο πνεῦμα θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ |
[2]And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding [in his tents] according to their tribes; and the spirit of God came upon him. |
| [3]καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν φησὶν βαλααμ υἱὸς βεωρ φησὶν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ ἀληθινῶς ὁρῶν |
[3]And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: |
| [4]φησὶν ἀκούων λόγια θεοῦ ὅστις ὅρασιν θεοῦ εἶδεν ἐν ὕπνῳ ἀποκεκαλυμμένοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ |
[4]He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eye open: |
| [5]ὡς καλοί σου οἱ οἶκοι ιακωβ αἱ σκηναί σου ισραηλ |
[5]How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, [and] thy tabernacles, O Israel! |
| [6]ὡσεὶ νάπαι σκιάζουσαι καὶ ὡσεὶ παράδεισοι ἐπὶ ποταμῶν καὶ ὡσεὶ σκηναί ἃς ἔπηξεν κύριος ὡσεὶ κέδροι παρ ὕδατα |
[6]As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath planted, [and] as cedar trees beside the waters. |
| [7]ἐξελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος αὐτοῦ καὶ κυριεύσει ἐθνῶν πολλῶν καὶ ὑψωθήσεται ἢ γωγ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐξηθήσεται ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ |
[7]He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed [shall be] in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. |
| [8]θεὸς ὡδήγησεν αὐτὸν ἐξ αἰγύπτου ὡς δόξα μονοκέρωτος αὐτῷ ἔδεται ἔθνη ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ πάχη αὐτῶν ἐκμυελιεῖ καὶ ταῖς βολίσιν αὐτοῦ κατατοξεύσει ἐχθρόν |
[8]God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce [them] through with his arrows. |
| [9]κατακλιθεὶς ἀνεπαύσατο ὡς λέων καὶ ὡς σκύμνος τίς ἀναστήσει αὐτόν οἱ εὐλογοῦντές σε εὐλόγηνται καὶ οἱ καταρώμενοί σε κεκατήρανται |
[9]He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed [is] he that blesseth thee, and cursed [is] he that curseth thee. |
| [10]καὶ ἐθυμώθη βαλακ ἐπὶ βαλααμ καὶ συνεκρότησεν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν βαλακ πρὸς βαλααμ καταρᾶσθαι τὸν ἐχθρόν μου κέκληκά σε καὶ ἰδοὺ εὐλογῶν εὐλόγησας τρίτον τοῦτο |
[10]And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed [them] these three times. |
| [11]νῦν οὖν φεῦγε εἰς τὸν τόπον σου εἶπα τιμήσω σε καὶ νῦν ἐστέρησέν σε κύριος τῆς δόξης |
[11]Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honour; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honour. |
| [12]καὶ εἶπεν βαλααμ πρὸς βαλακ οὐχὶ καὶ τοῖς ἀγγέλοις σου οὓς ἀπέστειλας πρός με ἐλάλησα λέγων |
[12]And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying |
| [13]ἐάν μοι δῷ βαλακ πλήρη τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἀργυρίου καὶ χρυσίου οὐ δυνήσομαι παραβῆναι τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου ποιῆσαι αὐτὸ πονηρὸν ἢ καλὸν παρ ἐμαυτοῦ ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπῃ ὁ θεός ταῦτα ἐρῶ |
[13]If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do [either] good or bad of mine own mind; [but] what the LORD saith to me, that will I speak? |
| [14]καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἀποτρέχω εἰς τὸν τόπον μου δεῦρο συμβουλεύσω σοι τί ποιήσει ὁ λαὸς οὗτος τὸν λαόν σου ἐπ ἐσχάτου τῶν ἡμερῶν |
[14]And now, behold, I go unto my people: come [therefore, and] I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days. |
| [15]καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν φησὶν βαλααμ υἱὸς βεωρ φησὶν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ ἀληθινῶς ὁρῶν |
[15]And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: |
| [16]ἀκούων λόγια θεοῦ ἐπιστάμενος ἐπιστήμην παρὰ ὑψίστου καὶ ὅρασιν θεοῦ ἰδὼν ἐν ὕπνῳ ἀποκεκαλυμμένοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ |
[16]He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, [which] saw the vision of the Almighty, falling [into a trance], but having his eyes open: |
| [17]δείξω αὐτῷ καὶ οὐχὶ νῦν μακαρίζω καὶ οὐκ ἐγγίζει ἀνατελεῖ ἄστρον ἐξ ιακωβ καὶ ἀναστήσεται ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ισραηλ καὶ θραύσει τοὺς ἀρχηγοὺς μωαβ καὶ προνομεύσει πάντας υἱοὺς σηθ |
[17]I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. |
| [18]καὶ ἔσται εδωμ κληρονομία καὶ ἔσται κληρονομία ησαυ ὁ ἐχθρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ισραηλ ἐποίησεν ἐν ἰσχύι |
[18]And Edom shall be a possession, Esau also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly. |
| [19]καὶ ἐξεγερθήσεται ἐξ ιακωβ καὶ ἀπολεῖ σῳζόμενον ἐκ πόλεως |
[19]Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city. |
| [20]καὶ ἰδὼν τὸν αμαληκ καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν ἀρχὴ ἐθνῶν αμαληκ καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν ἀπολεῖται |
[20]And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek [was] the first of the nations; but his latter end [shall be] that he perish for ever. |
| [21]καὶ ἰδὼν τὸν καιναῖον καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν ἰσχυρὰ ἡ κατοικία σου καὶ ἐὰν θῇς ἐν πέτρᾳ τὴν νοσσιάν σου |
[21]And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock. |
| [22]καὶ ἐὰν γένηται τῷ βεωρ νεοσσιὰ πανουργίας ἀσσύριοί σε αἰχμαλωτεύσουσιν |
[22]Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive. |
| [23]καὶ ἰδὼν τὸν ωγ καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τὴν παραβολὴν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν ὦ ὦ τίς ζήσεται ὅταν θῇ ταῦτα ὁ θεός |
[23]And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this! |
| [24]καὶ ἐξελεύσεται ἐκ χειρὸς κιτιαίων καὶ κακώσουσιν ασσουρ καὶ κακώσουσιν εβραίους καὶ αὐτοὶ ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἀπολοῦνται |
[24]And ships [shall come] from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever. |
| [25]καὶ ἀναστὰς βαλααμ ἀπῆλθεν ἀποστραφεὶς εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ καὶ βαλακ ἀπῆλθεν πρὸς ἑαυτόν |
[25]And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way. |
