בּוֹרֵא (נוב) נִיב שְׂפָתָיִם שָׁלוֹם׀ שָׁלוֹם לָרָחוֹק וְלַקָּרוֹב אָמַר יְהוָה וּרְפָאתִֽיו׃
I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.
τὸν λόγον ὃν ἀπέστειλεν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ εὐαγγελιζόμενος εἰρήνην διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ οὗτός ἐστιν πάντων κύριος
The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
Δικαιωθέντες οὖν ἐκ πίστεως εἰρήνην ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν θεὸν διὰ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
ὑμῖν γάρ ἐστιν ἡ ἐπαγγελία καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις ὑμῶν καὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς εἰς μακρὰν ὅσους ἂν προσκαλέσηται κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν
For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
וַיָּרֶם קֶרֶן׀ לְעַמּוֹ תְּהִלָּה לְֽכָל-חֲסִידָיו לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עַם קְרֹבוֹ הַֽלְלוּ-יָֽהּ׃
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
כִּי מִי-גוֹי גָּדוֹל אֲשֶׁר-לוֹ אֱלֹהִים קְרֹבִים אֵלָיו כַּֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ בְּכָל-קָרְאֵנוּ אֵלָֽיו׃
For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?
νυνὶ δὲ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ὑμεῖς οἵ ποτε ὄντες μακρὰν ἐγγὺς ἐγενήθητε ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ Χριστοῦ
But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
וְהִכְרַתִּי-רֶכֶב מֵאֶפְרַיִם וְסוּס מִירוּשָׁלִַם וְנִכְרְתָה קֶשֶׁת מִלְחָמָה וְדִבֶּר שָׁלוֹם לַגּוֹיִם וּמָשְׁלוֹ מִיָּם עַד-יָם וּמִנָּהָר עַד-אַפְסֵי-אָֽרֶץ׃
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.
מַגִּיד (דברו) דְּבָרָיו לְיַעֲקֹב חֻקָּיו וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ οὖν πρεσβεύομεν ὡς τοῦ θεοῦ παρακαλοῦντος δι' ἡμῶν· δεόμεθα ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ καταλλάγητε τῷ θεῷ
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
מַה-נָּאווּ עַל-הֶהָרִים רַגְלֵי מְבַשֵּׂר מַשְׁמִיעַ שָׁלוֹם מְבַשֵּׂר טוֹב מַשְׁמִיעַ יְשׁוּעָה אֹמֵר לְצִיּוֹן מָלַךְ אֱלֹהָֽיִךְ׃
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
חֶֽסֶד-וֶאֱמֶת נִפְגָּשׁוּ צֶדֶק וְשָׁלוֹם נָשָֽׁקוּ׃
Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
καὶ ἐὰν μὲν ᾖ ἡ οἰκία ἀξία ἐλθέτω ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν ἐπ' αὐτήν· ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ᾖ ἀξία ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐπιστραφήτω
And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
הוֹדִינוּ לְּךָ׀ אֱֽלֹהִים הוֹדִינוּ וְקָרוֹב שְׁמֶךָ סִפְּרוּ נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃
Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
אוֹ יַחֲזֵק בְּמָעוּזִּי יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם לִי שָׁלוֹם יַֽעֲשֶׂה-לִּֽי׃
Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.
נוֹדָע בִּֽיהוּדָה אֱלֹהִים בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל גָּדוֹל שְׁמֽוֹ׃
In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.
Δόξα ἐν ὑψίστοις θεῷ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς εἰρήνη ἐν ἀνθρώποις εὐδοκία
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
καὶ θεραπεύετε τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ ἀσθενεῖς καὶ λέγετε αὐτοῖς Ἤγγικεν ἐφ' ὑμᾶς ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ
And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
καὶ εὑρὼν ἐπιτίθησιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους ἑαυτοῦ χαίρων
And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
