וַיִּפְּלוּ עַל-פְּנֵיהֶם וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵל אֱלֹהֵי הָֽרוּחֹת לְכָל-בָּשָׂר הָאִישׁ אֶחָד יֶֽחֱטָא וְעַל כָּל-הָֽעֵדָה תִּקְצֹֽף׃
And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
יִפְקֹד יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי הָֽרוּחֹת לְכָל-בָּשָׂר אִישׁ עַל-הָֽעֵדָֽה׃
Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
כֹּֽה-אָמַר הָאֵל׀ יְהוָה בּוֹרֵא הַשָּׁמַיִם וְנוֹטֵיהֶם רֹקַע הָאָרֶץ וְצֶאֱצָאֶיהָ נֹתֵן נְשָׁמָה לָעָם עָלֶיהָ וְרוּחַ לַהֹלְכִים בָּֽהּ׃
Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τῆς σαρκὸς σάρξ ἐστιν καὶ τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος πνεῦμά ἐστιν
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
אֲשֶׁר בְּיָדוֹ נֶפֶשׁ כָּל-חָי וְרוּחַ כָּל-בְּשַׂר-אִֽישׁ׃
In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
מַשָּׂא דְבַר-יְהוָה עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם-יְהוָה נֹטֶה שָׁמַיִם וְיֹסֵד אָרֶץ וְיֹצֵר רֽוּחַ-אָדָם בְּקִרְבּֽוֹ׃
The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
כַּבֵּד אֶת-אָבִיךָ וְאֶת-אִמֶּךָ לְמַעַן יַֽאֲרִכוּן יָמֶיךָ עַל הָֽאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָֽךְ׃
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
אֲדֹנָי עֲלֵיהֶם יִֽחְיוּ וּלְכָל-בָּהֶן חַיֵּי רוּחִי וְתַחֲלִימֵנִי וְהַחֲיֵֽנִי׃
O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.
ὑποτάγητε οὖν τῷ θεῷ ἀντίστητε τῷ διαβόλῳ καὶ φεύξεται ἀφ' ὑμῶν
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
כִּי לֹא לְעוֹלָם אָרִיב וְלֹא לָנֶצַח אֶקְּצוֹף כִּי-רוּחַ מִלְּפָנַי יַֽעֲטוֹף וּנְשָׁמוֹת אֲנִי עָשִֽׂיתִי׃
For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.
Ταπεινώθητε οὖν ὑπὸ τὴν κραταιὰν χεῖρα τοῦ θεοῦ ἵνα ὑμᾶς ὑψώσῃ ἐν καιρῷ
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
אִישׁ אִמּוֹ וְאָבִיו תִּירָאוּ וְאֶת-שַׁבְּתֹתַי תִּשְׁמֹרוּ אֲנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם׃
Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.
עַיִן׀ תִּֽלְעַג לְאָב וְתָבֻז לִֽיקְּהַת-אֵם יִקְּרוּהָ עֹרְבֵי-נַחַל וְֽיֹאכְלוּהָ בְנֵי-נָֽשֶׁר׃
The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
ὧν οἱ πατέρες καὶ ἐξ ὧν ὁ Χριστὸς τὸ κατὰ σάρκα· ὁ ὢν ἐπὶ πάντων θεὸς εὐλογητὸς εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας ἀμήν
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
אָרוּר מַקְלֶה אָבִיו וְאִמּוֹ וְאָמַר כָּל-הָעָם אָמֵֽן׃
Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.
כִּֽי-יִהְיֶה לְאִישׁ בֵּן סוֹרֵר וּמוֹרֶה אֵינֶנּוּ שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל אָבִיו וּבְקוֹל אִמּוֹ וְיִסְּרוּ אֹתוֹ וְלֹא יִשְׁמַע אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
וְיָשֹׁב הֶעָפָר עַל-הָאָרֶץ כְּשֶׁהָיָה וְהָרוּחַ תָּשׁוּב אֶל-הָאֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר נְתָנָֽהּ׃
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Τὰ τέκνα ὑπακούετε τοῖς γονεῦσιν ὑμῶν ἐν κυρίῳ· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν δίκαιον
Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
בֵּן יְכַבֵּד אָב וְעֶבֶד אֲדֹנָיו וְאִם-אָב אָנִי אַיֵּה כְבוֹדִי וְאִם-אֲדוֹנִים אָנִי אַיֵּה מוֹרָאִי אָמַר׀ יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת לָכֶם הַכֹּֽהֲנִים בּוֹזֵי שְׁמִי וַאֲמַרְתֶּם בַּמֶּה בָזִינוּ אֶת-שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?
ταπεινώθητε ἐνώπιον τοῦ κυρίου καὶ ὑψώσει ὑμᾶς
