1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying:
Καὶ-εγένετο-λόγος-κυρίου-πρός-με-λέγων-
2 “Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any other wood, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest?
Καὶ-σύ-,-υιὲ-ανθρώπου-,-τί-ὰν-γένοιτο-τὸ-ξύλον-τῆς-αμπέλου-εκ-πάντων-τῶν-ξύλων-τῶν-κλημάτων-τῶν-όντων-εν-τοῖς-ξύλοις-τοῦ-δρυμοῦ-;-
3 Is wood taken from it to make any object? Or can men make a peg from it to hang any vessel on?
ει-λήμψονται-εξ-αυτῆς-ξύλον-τοῦ-ποιῆσαι-εις-εργασίαν-;-ει-λήμψονται-εξ-αυτῆς-πάσσαλον-τοῦ-κρεμάσαι-επ᾿-αυτὸν-πᾶν-σκεῦος-;-
4 Instead, it is thrown into the fire for fuel; the fire devours both ends of it, and its middle is burned. Is it useful for any work?
πάρεξ-πυρὶ-δέδοται-εις-ανάλωσιν-,-τὴν-κατ᾿-ενιαυτὸν-κάθαρσιν-απ᾿-αυτῆς-αναλίσκει-τὸ-πῦρ-,-καὶ-εκλείπει-εις-τέλος-·-μὴ-χρήσιμον-έσται-εις-εργασίαν-;-
5 Indeed, when it was whole, no object could be made from it. How much less will it be useful for any work when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned?
ουδὲ-έτι-αυτοῦ-όντος-ολοκλήρου-ουκ-έσται-εις-εργασίαν-.-μὴ-ότι-εὰν-καὶ-πῦρ-αυτὸ-αναλώση-εις-τέλος-,-ει-έσται-έτι-εις-εργασίαν-;-
6 “Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: ‘Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give up the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
διὰ-τοῦτο-ειπόν-Τάδε-λέγει-κύριος-Ὸν-τρόπον-τὸ-ξύλον-τῆς-αμπέλου-εν-τοῖς-ξύλοις-τοῦ-δρυμοῦ-,-ὸ-δέδωκα-αυτὸ-τῶ-πυρὶ-εις-ανάλωσιν-,-ούτως-δέδωκα-τοὺς-κατοικοῦντας-Ιερουσαλημ-.-
7 and I will set My face against them. They will go out from one fire, but another fire shall devour them. Then you shall know that I am the LORD, when I set My face against them.
καὶ-δώσω-τὸ-πρόσωπόν-μου-επ᾿-αυτούς-·-εκ-τοῦ-πυρὸς-εξελεύσονται-,-καὶ-πῦρ-αυτοὺς-καταφάγεται-,-καὶ-επιγνώσονται-ότι-εγὼ-κύριος-εν-τῶ-στηρίσαι-με-τὸ-πρόσωπόν-μου-επ᾿-αυτούς-.-
8 Thus I will make the land desolate, because they have persisted in unfaithfulness,’ says the Lord GOD.”
καὶ-δώσω-τὴν-γῆν-εις-αφανισμὸν-ανθ᾿-ῶν-παρέπεσον-παραπτώματι-,-λέγει-κύριος-.-
