τότε ἄρξονται λέγειν τοῖς ὄρεσιν Πέσετε ἐφ' ἡμᾶς καὶ τοῖς βουνοῖς Καλύψατε ἡμᾶς·
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
וְנִבְחַר מָוֶת מֵֽחַיִּים לְכֹל הַשְּׁאֵרִית הַנִּשְׁאָרִים מִן-הַמִּשְׁפָּחָה הָֽרָעָה הַזֹּאת בְּכָל-הַמְּקֹמוֹת הַנִּשְׁאָרִים אֲשֶׁר הִדַּחְתִּים שָׁם נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאֽוֹת׃
And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places whither I have driven them, saith the LORD of hosts.
καὶ λέγουσιν τοῖς ὄρεσιν καὶ ταῖς πέτραις Πέσετε ἐφ' ἡμᾶς καὶ κρύψατε ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ὀργῆς τοῦ ἀρνίου
And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
וּבָאוּ בִּמְעָרוֹת צֻרִים וּבִמְחִלּוֹת עָפָר מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאוֹנוֹ בְּקוּמוֹ לַעֲרֹץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
וְנִשְׁמְדוּ בָּמוֹת אָוֶן חַטַּאת יִשְׂרָאֵל קוֹץ וְדַרְדַּר יַעֲלֶה עַל-מִזְבְּחוֹתָם וְאָמְרוּ לֶֽהָרִים כַּסּוּנוּ וְלַגְּבָעוֹת נִפְלוּ עָלֵֽינוּ׃
The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
וַתִּבְחַר מַחֲנָק נַפְשִׁי מָוֶת מֵֽעַצְמוֹתָֽי׃
So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.
לָמָּה יִתֵּן לְעָמֵל אוֹר וְחַיִּים לְמָרֵי נָֽפֶשׁ׃
Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul;
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי עֲמָד-נָא עָלַי וּמֹתְתֵנִי כִּי אֲחָזַנִי הַשָּׁבָץ כִּֽי-כָל-עוֹד נַפְשִׁי בִּֽי׃
He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me.
οἱ γὰρ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἀπεληλύθεισαν εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἵνα τροφὰς ἀγοράσωσιν
(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
