Μὴ νομίσητε ὅτι ἦλθον βαλεῖν εἰρήνην ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν· οὐκ ἦλθον βαλεῖν εἰρήνην ἀλλὰ μάχαιραν
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Πῦρ ἦλθον βαλεῖν εἰς τὴν γῆν καὶ τί θέλω εἰ ἤδη ἀνήφθη
I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?
ἐγερθήσεται γὰρ ἔθνος ἐπὶ ἔθνος καὶ βασιλεία ἐπὶ βασιλείαν καὶ ἔσονται λιμοὶ καὶ λοιμοί καὶ σεισμοὶ κατὰ τόπους·
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
וָאֶקַּח אֶת-מַקְלִי אֶת-נֹעַם וָאֶגְדַּע אֹתוֹ לְהָפֵיר אֶת-בְּרִיתִי אֲשֶׁר כָּרַתִּי אֶת-כָּל-הָעַמִּֽים׃
And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.
וָֽאֶגְדַּע אֶת-מַקְלִי הַשֵּׁנִי אֵת הַחֹֽבְלִים לְהָפֵר אֶת-הָֽאַחֲוָה בֵּין יְהוּדָה וּבֵין יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
וָֽאֶרְעֶה אֶת-צֹאן הַֽהֲרֵגָה לָכֵן עֲנִיֵּי הַצֹּאן וָאֶקַּֽח-לִי שְׁנֵי מַקְלוֹת לְאַחַד קָרָאתִי נֹעַם וּלְאַחַד קָרָאתִי חֹֽבְלִים וָאֶרְעֶה אֶת-הַצֹּֽאן׃
And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
