Brenton's Septuagint (LXX) - Holy Name KJV

 5:1 ¶ Now I will sing to [my] beloved a song of my beloved concerning my vineyard. [My] beloved had a vineyard on a high hill in a fertile place.

 5:1 ¶ Nowº will I singºº to my wellbelovedº a songº of my belovedº touching his vineyard.º My wellbelovedº hathº a vineyardº in a very fruitfulºº hill:ººº

 5:2 And I made a hedge round it, and dug a trench, and planted a choice vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and dug a place for the wine-vat in it: and I waited [for it] to bring forth grapes, and it brought forth thorns.

 5:2 And he fencedºº it, and gathered out the stonesºº thereof, and plantedºº it with the choicest vine,º and builtºº a towerº in the midstº of it, and alsoº madeºº a winepressº therein: and he lookedºº that it should bring forthºº grapes,º and it brought forthºº wild grapes.º

 5:3 And now, ye dwellers in Jerusalem, and [every] man of Judah{gr.Juda}, judge between me and my vineyard.

 5:3 And now,º O inhabitantsºº of Jerusalem,º and menº of Judah,º judge,ºº I pray you,º betwixtº me and my vineyard.º

 5:4 What shall I do any more to my vineyard, that I have not done to it? Whereas I expected [it] to bring forth grapes, but it has brought forth thorns.

 5:4 Whatº could have been doneºº moreº to my vineyard,º that I have notº doneºº in it? wherefore,º when I lookedºº that it should bring forthºº grapes,º brought it forthºº wild grapes?º

 5:5 And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be for a spoil; and I will pull down its walls, and it shall be [left] to be trodden down.

 5:5 And nowº go to; I will tellººº youº whatº Iº will doºº to my vineyard:º I will take awayºº the hedgeº thereof, and it shall beº eaten up;ºº [and] break downºº the wallº thereof, and it shall beº trodden down:º

 5:6 And I will forsake my vineyard; and it shall not be pruned, nor dug, and thorns shall come up upon it as on barren land; and I will command the clouds to rain no rain upon it.

 5:6 And I will layºº it waste:º it shall notº be pruned,ººº norº digged;ºº but there shall come upºº briersº and thorns:º I will also commandººº the cloudsº that they rainºº no rainººº uponº it.

 5:7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah{gr.Juda} [his] beloved plant: I expected [it] to bring forth judgement, and it brought forth iniquity; and not righteousness, but a cry.

 5:7 Forº the vineyardº of Yahwehº Sabaothº [is] the houseº of Israel,º and the menº of Judahº his pleasantº plant:º and he lookedºº for judgment,º but beholdº oppression;º for righteousness,º but beholdº a cry.º

 5:8 ¶ Woe [to them] that join house to house, and add field to field, that they may take away something of their neighbor's: will ye dwell alone upon the land?

 5:8 ¶ Woeº unto them that joinºº houseº to house,º [that] layºº fieldº to field,º tillº [there be] noº place,º that they may be placedºº aloneº in the midstº of the earth!º

 5:9 For these things have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts: for though many houses should be built, many and fair houses shall be desolate, and there shall be no inhabitants in them.

 5:9 In mine earsº [said] Yahwehº Sabaoth,º Of a truthºº manyº housesº shall beº desolate,º [even] greatº and fair,º withoutºº inhabitant.ºº

 5:10 For where ten yoke of oxen plough [the land] shall yield one jar-full, and he that sows six homers shall produce three measures.

 5:10 Yea,º tenº acresº of vineyardº shall yieldºº oneº bath,º and the seedº of an homerº shall yieldºº an ephah.º

 5:11 ¶ Woe [to them] that rise up in the morning, and follow strong drink; who wait [at it till] evening: for the wine shall inflame them.

 5:11 ¶ Woeº unto them that rise up earlyºº in the morning,º [that] they may followºº strong drink;º that continueºº until night,º [till] wineº inflameºº them!

 5:12 For they drink wine with harp, and psaltery, and drums, and pipes: but they regard not the works of the Lord, and consider not the works of his hands.

 5:12 And the harp,º and the viol,º the tabret,º and pipe,º and wine,º areº in their feasts:º but they regardºº notº the workº of Yahweh,º neitherº considerºº the operationº of his hands.º

 5:13 ¶ Therefore my people have been taken captive, because they know not the Lord: and there has been a multitude of dead [bodies], because of hunger and of thirst for water.

 5:13 ¶ Thereforeº my peopleº are gone into captivity,ºº because [they have] noºº knowledge:º and their honourableº menº [are] famished,º and their multitudeº dried upº with thirst.º

 5:14 Therefore hell has enlarged its desire and opened its mouth without ceasing: and her glorious and great, and her rich and her pestilent men shall go down [into it].

 5:14 Thereforeº hellº hath enlargedºº herself,º and openedºº her mouthº withoutº measure:º and their glory,º and their multitude,º and their pomp,º and he that rejoiceth,º shall descendºº into it.

 5:15 And the mean man shall be brought low, and the great man shall be disgraced, and the lofty eyes shall be brought low.

 5:15 And the mean manº shall be brought down,ºº and the mighty manº shall be humbled,ºº and the eyesº of the loftyº shall be humbled:ºº

 5:16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgement, and the holy God shall be glorified in righteousness.

 5:16 But Yahwehº Sabaothº shall be exaltedºº in judgment,º and Elº that is holyº shall be sanctifiedºº in righteousness.º

 5:17 And they that were spoiled shall be fed as bulls, and lambs shall feed on the waste places of them that are taken away.

 5:17 Then shall the lambsº feedºº after their manner,º and the waste placesº of the fat onesº shall strangersºº eat.ºº

 5:18 Woe [to them] that draw sins to them as with a long rope, and iniquities as with a thong of the heifer's yoke:

 5:18 Woeº unto them that drawºº iniquityº with cordsº of vanity,º and sinºº as it were with a cartº rope:º

 5:19 who say, Let him speedily hasten what he will do, that we may see [it]: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel come, that we may know [it].

 5:19 That say,ºº Let him make speed,ºº [and] hastenºº his work,º thatº we may seeºº [it]: and let the counselº of the Holy Oneº of Israelº draw nighºº and come,ºº that we may knowºº [it]!

 5:20 ¶ Woe [to them] that call evil good, and good evil; who make darkness light, and light darkness; who make bitter sweet, and sweet bitter.

 5:20 ¶ Woeº unto them that callºº evilº good,º and goodº evil;º that putºº darknessº for light,º and lightº for darkness;º that putºº bitterº for sweet,º and sweetº for bitter!º

 5:21 Woe [to them] that are wise in their own conceit, and knowing in their own sight.

 5:21 Woeº unto [them that are] wiseº in their own eyes,º and prudentºº inº their own sight!º

 5:22 Woe to the strong [ones] of you that drink wine, and the mighty [ones] that mingle strong drink:

 5:22 Woeº unto [them that are] mightyº to drinkºº wine,º and menºº of strengthº to mingleºº strong drink:º

 5:23 who justify the ungodly for rewards, and take away the righteousness of the righteous.

 5:23 Which justifyºº the wickedº forº reward,º and take awayºº the righteousnessº of the righteousº fromº him!

 5:24 Therefore as stubble shall be burnt by a coal of fire, and shall be consumed by a violent flame, their root shall be as chaff, and their flower shall go up as dust: for they rejected the law of the Lord of hosts, and insulted the word of the Holy One of Israel.

 5:24 Thereforeº as the fireº devourethºº the stubble,º and the flameºº consumethºº the chaff,º [so] their rootº shall beº as rottenness,º and their blossomº shall go upºº as dust:º becauseº they have cast awayººº the lawº of Yahwehº Sabaoth,º and despisedºº the wordº of the Holy Oneº of Israel.º

 5:25 Therefore the Lord of hosts was greatly angered against his people, and he reached forth his hand upon them, and smote them: and the mountains were troubled, and their carcasses were as dung in the midst of the way: yet for all this his anger has not been turned away, but his hand is yet raised.

 5:25 Thereforeºº is the angerº of Yahwehº kindledºº against his people,º and he hath stretched forthºº his handº againstº them, and hath smittenºº them: and the hillsº did tremble,ºº and their carcasesº [were] tornºº in the midstº of the streets.º For allº thisº his angerº is notº turned away,ºº but his handº [is] stretched outºº still.º

 5:26 ¶ Therefore shall he lift up a signal to the nations that are afar, and shall hiss for them from the end of the earth; and, behold, they are coming very quickly.

 5:26 ¶ And he will lift upºº an ensignº to the nationsº from far,ºº and will hissºº unto them from the endºº of the earth:º and, behold,º they shall comeºº with speedº swiftly:º

 5:27 They shall not hunger nor be weary, neither shall they slumber nor sleep; neither shall they loose their girdles from their loins, neither shall their shoe-latchets be broken.

 5:27 Noneº shall be wearyº norº stumbleºº among them; noneº shall slumberºº norº sleep;ºº neitherº shall the girdleº of their loinsº be loosed,ºº norº the latchetº of their shoesº be broken:ºº

 5:28 Whose arrows are sharp, and their bows bent; their horses' hoofs are counted as solid rock: their chariot-wheels are as a storm.

 5:28 Whoseº arrowsº [are] sharp,ºº and allº their bowsº bent,ºº their horses'º hoofsº shall be countedºº like flint,ºº and their wheelsº like a whirlwind:º

 5:29 They rage as lions, and draw nigh as a lion's whelps: and he shall seize, and roar as a wild beast, and he shall cast [them] forth, and there shall be none to deliver them.

 5:29 Their roaringº [shall be] like a lion,º they shall roarºººº like young lions:º yea, they shall roar,ºº and lay holdºº of the prey,º and shall carry [it] away safe,ºº and noneº shall deliverºº [it].

 5:30 And he shall roar on account of them in that day, as the sound of the swelling sea; and they shall look to the land, and, behold, [there shall be] thick darkness in their perplexity.

 5:30 And in thatº dayº they shall roarºº againstº them like the roaringº of the sea:º and if [one] lookºº unto the land,º beholdº darknessº [and] sorrow,º and the lightº is darkenedºº in the heavensº thereof.
