2πρὸς Ιερεμιαν τὸν προφήτην καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ Πεσέτω δὴ τὸ ἔλεος ἡμῶν κατὰ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ πρόσευξαι πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεόν σου περὶ τῶν καταλοίπων τούτων, ὅτι κατελείφθημεν ὀλίγοι ἀπὸ πολλῶν, καθὼς οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου βλέπουσιν· to Jeremias the prophet and said to him Let now our supplication come before thy face and pray thou to the Lord thy God for this remnant; for we are left few out of many as thine eyes see. 
3καὶ ἀναγγειλάτω ἡμῖν κύριος ὁ θεός σου τὴν ὁδόν, ᾗ πορευσόμεθα ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ λόγον, ὃν ποιήσομεν. And let the Lord thy God declare to us the way wherein we should walk and the thing which we should do. 
4καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ιερεμιας Ἤκουσα, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ προσεύξομαι πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεὸν ἡμῶν κατὰ τοὺς λόγους ὑμῶν· καὶ ἔσται, ὁ λόγος, ὃν ἂν ἀποκριθήσεται κύριος, ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ κρύψω ἀφ' ὑμῶν ῥῆμα. And Jeremias said to them I have heard [you]; behold I will pray for you to the Lord our God according to your words; and it shall come to pass [that] whatsoever word the Lord God shall answer 
5καὶ αὐτοὶ εἶπαν τῷ Ιερεμια Ἔστω κύριος ἐν ἡμῖν εἰς μάρτυρα δίκαιον καὶ πιστόν, εἰ μὴ κατὰ πάντα τὸν λόγον, ὃν ἂν ἀποστείλῃ σε κύριος πρὸς ἡμᾶς, οὕτως ποιήσομεν· And they said to Jeremias Let the Lord be between us for a just and faithful witness if we do not according to every word which the Lord shall send to us. 
6καὶ ἐὰν ἀγαθὸν καὶ ἐὰν κακόν, τὴν φωνὴν κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν, οὗ ἡμεῖς ἀποστέλλομέν σε πρὸς αὐτόν, ἀκουσόμεθα, ἵνα βέλτιον ἡμῖν γένηται, ὅτι ἀκουσόμεθα τῆς φωνῆς κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν. - And whether [it be] good or whether [it be] evil we will hearken to the voice of the Lord our God to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us because we shall hearken to the voice of the Lord our God. 
7καὶ ἐγενήθη μετὰ δέκα ἡμέρας ἐγενήθη λόγος κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν. And it came to pass after ten days [that] the word of the Lord came to Jeremias.Thre LORD's judgement on Edom. Jr.49.7-22
8καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸν Ιωαναν καὶ τοὺς ἡγεμόνας τῆς δυνάμεως καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου And he called Joanan and the Leaders of the host and all the people from the least even to the greatest 
9καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος and he said to them Thus saith the Lord; 
10Ἑὰν καθίσαντες καθίσητε ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ, οἰκοδομήσω ὑμᾶς καὶ οὐ μὴ καθέλω καὶ φυτεύσω ὑμᾶς καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐκτίλω· ὅτι ἀναπέπαυμαι ἐπὶ τοῖς κακοῖς, οἷς ἐποίησα ὑμῖν. If ye will indeed dwell in this land I will build you and will not pull [you] down but will plant you and in no wise pluck you up: for I have ceased from the calamities which I brought upon you. 
11μὴ φοβηθῆτε ἀπὸ προσώπου βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος, οὗ ὑμεῖς φοβεῖσθε ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ· μὴ φοβηθῆτε, φησὶν κύριος, ὅτι μεθ' ὑμῶν ἐγώ εἰμι τοῦ ἐξαιρεῖσθαι ὑμᾶς καὶ σῴζειν ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ· Be not afraid of the king of Babylon of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him saith the Lord: for I am with you to deliver you and save you out of their hand. 
12καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν ἔλεος καὶ ἐλεήσω ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐπιστρέψω ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν γῆν ὑμῶν. And I will grant you mercy and pity you and will restore you to your land. 
13καὶ εἰ λέγετε ὑμεῖς Οὐ μὴ καθίσωμεν ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἀκοῦσαι φωνῆς κυρίου, But if ye say We will not dwell in this land that we may not hearken to the voice of the Lord; 
14ὅτι εἰς γῆν Αἰγύπτου εἰσελευσόμεθα καὶ οὐ μὴ ἴδωμεν πόλεμον καὶ φωνὴν σάλπιγγος οὐ μὴ ἀκούσωμεν καὶ ἐν ἄρτοις οὐ μὴ πεινάσωμεν καὶ ἐκεῖ οἰκήσομεν, for wee will go into the land of Egypt and we shall see no war and shall not hear the sound of a trumpet and we shall not hunger for bread; and there we will dwell: 
15διὰ τοῦτο ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου Οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Ἑὰν ὑμεῖς δῶτε τὸ πρόσωπον ὑμῶν εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ εἰσέλθητε ἐκεῖ κατοικεῖν, then hear the word of the Lord; thus saith the Lord; 
16καὶ ἔσται, ἡ ῥομφαία, ἣν ὑμεῖς φοβεῖσθε ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῆς, εὑρήσει ὑμᾶς ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ὁ λιμός, οὗ ὑμεῖς λόγον ἔχετε ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ, καταλήμψεται ὑμᾶς ὀπίσω ὑμῶν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ ἐκεῖ ἀποθανεῖσθε. If ye set your face toward Egypt and go in there to dwell; then it shall be [that] the sword which ye fear shall find you in the land of Egypt and the famine to which ye have regard shall overtake you 
17καὶ ἔσονται πάντες οἱ ἄνθρωποι καὶ πάντες οἱ ἀλλογενεῖς οἱ θέντες τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν εἰς γῆν Αἰγύπτου ἐνοικεῖν ἐκεῖ ἐκλείψουσιν ἐν τῇ ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ἐν τῷ λιμῷ, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται αὐτῶν οὐθεὶς σῳζόμενος ἀπὸ τῶν κακῶν, ὧν ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐπ' αὐτούς. And all the men and all the strangers who have set their face toward the land of Egypt to dwell there shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine: and there shall not one of them escape from the evils which I bring upon them. 
18ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος Καθὼς ἔσταξεν ὁ θυμός μου ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ιερουσαλημ, οὕτως στάξει ὁ θυμός μου ἐφ' ὑμᾶς εἰσελθόντων ὑμῶν εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ ἔσεσθε εἰς ἄβατον καὶ ὑποχείριοι καὶ εἰς ἀρὰν καὶ εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν καὶ οὐ μὴ ἴδητε οὐκέτι τὸν τόπον τοῦτον, For thus saith the Lord; As my wrath has dropped upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem so shall my wrath drop upon you when ye have entered into Egypt: and ye shall be a desolation and under the power of others and a curse and a reproach: and ye shall no more 
19ἃ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐφ' ὑμᾶς τοὺς καταλοίπους Ιουδα Μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς Αἴγυπτον. καὶ νῦν γνόντες γνώσεσθε [These are the words] which the Lord has spoken concerning you the remnant of Juda; Enter ye not into Egypt: and now know ye for a certainty 
20ὅτι ἐπονηρεύσασθε ἐν ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν ἀποστείλαντές με λέγοντες Πρόσευξαι περὶ ἡμῶν πρὸς κύριον, καὶ κατὰ πάντα, ἃ ἐὰν λαλήσῃ σοι κύριος, ποιήσομεν. that ye have wrought wickedness in your hearts when ye sent me saying Pray thou for us to the Lord; and according to all that the Lord shall speak to thee we will do. 
21καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς κυρίου, ἧς ἀπέστειλέν με πρὸς ὑμᾶς. And ye have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord with which he sent me to you. 
22καὶ νῦν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ ἐκλείψετε ἐν τῷ τόπῳ, οὗ ὑμεῖς βούλεσθε εἰσελθεῖν κατοικεῖν ἐκεῖ. Now therefore ye shall perish by sword and by famine in the place which ye desire to go into to dwell there.

Notes:The Old Testament in Greek is Rahlf's LXX available in Word format at the Tyndale website, adapted to database format.
The alternative readings of the LXX - Judges (Alexandrinus), Daniel, Susanna & Bel (LXX received text), and Tobit (Sinaiticus [not printed in Swete]) as separate book references so that they can be viewed as an alternative text in parallel with the primary text.
(I have reversed the Swete presentation for Daniel, Susanna, Bel by listing in the later Theodotion LXX text as the main text.)
The LXX cross references to the Hebrew Bible have been extensively revised using those set out in Swete's 'Old Testament in Greek' publications between 1894 and 1909, amended in part to agree with verses as printed in the Biblia Hebraica 1937 publication).
Some verse cross references in Swete's had to be amended to agree with the BHS verse numbering, and there may well be some mismatches that I haven't yet picked up on. (If you find any errors please e-mail me.)
Hebrew Bible has been adapted from the BHS in Word format at Tyndale.
The Septuagint in English ( translated by Sir Lancelot CL Brenton) - is used here only for the books of the Hebrew Bible.
The Revised Standard Version: This generally follows the Hebrew Bible for the canonical OT so I have included the RSV Aprocrypha for the Greek books not covered by Brenton.
Ecclesiasticus - Sirach Chs.30-36: The text of these chapters from 30.24 to 36.16, is disordered.
I have followed Swete's verse numbering for the greek text.
Also, the RSV verse numbering differs from the NRSV.
The NRSV appears to have followed Swete's numbering here, so I have re-ordered the RSV to agree with both the NRSV & Swete for these chapters.
