4.24 For the LORD thy God is a devouring fire, a jealous God.
6.5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
7.8 but because the LORD loved you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
8.5 And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
8.10 And thou shalt eat and be satisfied, and bless the LORD thy God for the good land which He hath given thee.
8.13 and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
8.19 And it shall be, if thou shalt forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I forewarn you this day that ye shall surely perish.
9.10 And the LORD delivered unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spoke with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
9.26 And I prayed unto the LORD, and said: ‘O Lord GOD, destroy not Thy people and Thine inheritance, that Thou hast redeemed through Thy greatness, that Thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand. 9.27 Remember Thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin;
12.3 And ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods; and ye shall destroy their name out of that place.
13.1 All this word which I command you, that shall ye observe to do; thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it. 13.2 If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams—and he give thee a sign or a wonder, 13.3 and the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spoke unto thee—saying: ‘Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them’; 13.4 thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams; for the LORD your God putteth you to proof, to know whether ye do love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 13.5 After the LORD your God shall ye walk, and Him shall ye fear, and His commandments shall ye keep, and unto His voice shall ye hearken, and Him shall ye serve, and unto Him shall ye cleave. 13.6 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken perversion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bondage, to draw thee aside out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
14.1 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead. 14.2 For thou art a holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be His own treasure out of all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
30.19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed;
31.7 And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel: ‘Be strong and of good courage; for thou shalt go with this people into the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
32.8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the children of men, He set the borders of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.
32.16 They roused Him to jealousy with strange gods, With abominations did they provoke Him. 32.17 They sacrificed unto demons, no-gods, Gods that they knew not, New gods that came up of late, Which your fathers dreaded not. 32.18 of the Rock that begot thee thou wast unmindful, And didst forget God that bore thee. .
32.43 Sing aloud, O ye nations, of His people; For He doth avenge the blood of His servants, And doth render vengeance to His adversaries, And doth make expiation for the land of His people.
34.10 And there hath not arisen a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face;' ' None |

3.10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth My people the children of Israel out of Egypt.’
3.13 And Moses said unto God: ‘Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them: The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me: What is His name? what shall I say unto them?’ 3.14 And God said unto Moses: ‘I AM THAT I AM’; and He said: ‘Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: I AM hath sent me unto you.’
4.22 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh: Thus saith the LORD: Israel is My son, My first-born.
6.6 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel: I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments;
7.1 And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘See, I have set thee in God’s stead to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
7.5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth My hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.’
7.9 ’When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying: Show a wonder for you; then thou shalt say unto Aaron: Take thy rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.’
7.16 And thou shalt say unto him: The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, hath sent me unto thee, saying: Let My people go, that they may serve Me in the wilderness; and, behold, hitherto thou hast not hearkened;
7.19 And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘Say unto Aaron: Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’
8.5 And Moses said unto Pharaoh: ‘Have thou this glory over me; against what time shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?’
12.13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
12.23 For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when He seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
14.4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he shall follow after them; and I will get Me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD.’ And they did so.
15.2 The LORD is my strength and song, And He is become my salvation; This is my God, and I will glorify Him; My father’s God, and I will exalt Him.
15.11 Who is like unto Thee, O LORD, among the mighty? Who is like unto Thee, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?
15.17 Thou bringest them in, and plantest them in the mountain of Thine inheritance, The place, O LORD, which Thou hast made for Thee to dwell in, The sanctuary, O Lord, which Thy hands have established. 15.18 The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.
15.25 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There He made for them a statute and an ordice, and there He proved them;
16.4 Then said the LORD unto Moses: ‘Behold, I will cause to rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in My law, or not.
20.3 Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. 20.4 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 20.5 thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; 20.6 and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments.
20.8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
20.11 for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested on the seventh day; wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
20.13 Thou shalt not murder. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
24.10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under His feet the like of a paved work of sapphire stone, and the like of the very heaven for clearness. 24.11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel He laid not His hand; and they beheld God, and did eat and drink.
24.16 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and the seventh day He called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
33.18 And he said: ‘Show me, I pray Thee, Thy glory.’ 33.19 And He said: ‘I will make all My goodness pass before thee, and will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.’ 33.20 And He said: ‘Thou canst not see My face, for man shall not see Me and live.’
33.22 And it shall come to pass, while My glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with My hand until I have passed by. 33.23 And I will take away My hand, and thou shalt see My back; but My face shall not be seen.’
40.34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. 40.35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.—' ' None |

1.1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 1.2 Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters. 1.3 And God said: ‘Let there be light.’ And there was light. 1.4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 1.5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
1.7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.
1.14 And God said: ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
1.16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars.
1.20 And God said: ‘Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let fowl fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.’ 1.21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that creepeth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged fowl after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
1.24 And God said: ‘Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind.’ And it was so. 1.25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good. 1.26 And God said: ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.’ 1.27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them. 1.28 And God blessed them; and God said unto them: ‘Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth.’
1.31 And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
2.1 And the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2.2 And on the seventh day God finished His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. 2.3 And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; because that in it He rested from all His work which God in creating had made.
2.7 Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 2.8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed. 2.9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
2.10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became four heads.
2.11 The name of the first is Pishon; that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
2.12 and the gold of that land is good; there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
2.13 And the name of the second river is Gihon; the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Cush.
2.14 And the name of the third river is Tigris; that is it which goeth toward the east of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
2.15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
2.16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying: ‘of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
2.17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.’
2.18 And the LORD God said: ‘It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him.’
2.19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that was to be the name thereof.
3.2 And the woman said unto the serpent: ‘of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; 3.3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said: Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.’ 3.4 And the serpent said unto the woman: ‘Ye shall not surely die; 3.5 for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.’ 3.6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat; and she gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat. 3.7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves girdles. 3.8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden toward the cool of the day; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. 3.9 And the LORD God called unto the man, and said unto him: ‘Where art thou?’
3.16 Unto the woman He said: ‘I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy travail; in pain thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.’ 3.17 And unto Adam He said: ‘Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying: Thou shalt not eat of it; cursed is the ground for thy sake; in toil shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life. 3.18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field. 3.19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.’
3.20 And the man called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
3.21 And the LORD God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins, and clothed them.
3.22 And the LORD God said: ‘Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.’
3.23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
3.24 So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubim, and the flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way to the tree of life.
4.1 And the man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived and bore Cain, and said: ‘I have agotten a man with the help of the LORD.’
4.3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4.4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering;
4.10 And He said: ‘What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto Me from the ground.
4.12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a wanderer shalt thou be in the earth.’
4.13 And Cain said unto the LORD: ‘My punishment is greater than I can bear.
4.14 Behold, Thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the land; and from Thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth; and it will come to pass, that whosoever findeth me will slay me.’
4.26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh; then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
5.1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made He him; 5.2 male and female created He them, and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. 5.3 And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth.
5.24 And Enoch walked with God, and he was not; for God took him.
6.1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 6.2 that the sons of nobles saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. 6.3 And the LORD said: ‘My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.’ 6.4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of nobles came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.
6.6 And it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart. 6.7 And the LORD said: ‘I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and creeping thing, and fowl of the air; for it repenteth Me that I have made them.’
7.22 all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, whatsoever was in the dry land, died.
1
2.1 Now the LORD said unto Abram: ‘Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto the land that I will show thee. 12.2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing. 12.3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.’ 12.4 So Abram went, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
1
2.7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said: ‘Unto thy seed will I give this land’; and he builded there an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
1
2.13 Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister; that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.’
1
2.16 And he dealt well with Abram for her sake; and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.
13.14 And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him: ‘Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward; 13.15 for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. 1
3.16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth; so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. 13.17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.’
1
4.13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew—now he dwelt by the terebinths of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner; and these were confederate with Abram.
1
4.18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine; and he was priest of God the Most High. 1
4.19 And he blessed him, and said: ‘Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Maker of heaven and earth; 14.20 and blessed be God the Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand.’ And he gave him a tenth of all.
15.2 And Abram said: ‘O Lord GOD, what wilt Thou give me, seeing I go hence childless, and he that shall be possessor of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?’ 15.3 And Abram said: ‘Behold, to me Thou hast given no seed, and, lo, one born in my house is to be mine heir.’
15.5 And He brought him forth abroad, and said: ‘Look now toward heaven, and count the stars, if thou be able to count them’; and He said unto him: ‘So shall thy seed be.’ 15.6 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness.
15.9 And He said unto him: ‘Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.’ 1
5.10 And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not. 1
5.11 And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. 1
5.12 And it came to pass, that, when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, a dread, even a great darkness, fell upon him. 1
5.13 And He said unto Abram: ‘Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 1
5.14 and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they come out with great substance. 1
5.15 But thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age. 1
5.16 And in the fourth generation they shall come back hither; for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.’
1
5.18 In that day the LORD made a covet with Abram, saying: ‘Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates;
17.1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him: ‘I am God Almighty; walk before Me, and be thou wholehearted. 17.2 And I will make My covet between Me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.’ 17.3 And Abram fell on his face; and God talked with him, saying: 17.4 ’As for Me, behold, My covet is with thee, and thou shalt be the father of a multitude of nations. 17.5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee. 17.6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 17.7 And I will establish My covet between Me and thee and thy seed after thee throughout their generations for an everlasting covet, to be a God unto thee and to thy seed after thee. 17.8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.’ 17.9 And God said unto Abraham: ‘And as for thee, thou shalt keep My covet, thou, and thy seed after thee throughout their generations.
17.10 This is My covet, which ye shall keep, between Me and you and thy seed after thee: every male among you shall be circumcised.
17.11 And ye shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of a covet betwixt Me and you.
17.12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any foreigner, that is not of thy seed.
17.13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised; and My covet shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covet.
17.14 And the uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken My covet.’
17.15 And God said unto Abraham: ‘As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
17.16 And I will bless her, and moreover I will give thee a son of her; yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be of her.’
17.17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart: ‘Shall a child be born unto him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?’
17.18 And Abraham said unto God: ‘Oh that Ishmael might live before Thee! ’
17.19 And God said: ‘‘Nay, but Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish My covet with him for an everlasting covet for his seed after him. 17.20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee; behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. 17.21 But My covet will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.’
18.1 And the LORD appeared unto him by the terebinths of Mamre, as he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
18.10 And He said: ‘I will certainly return unto thee when the season cometh round; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son.’ And Sarah heard in the tent door, which was behind him.—
18.11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, and well stricken in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.—
18.12 And Sarah laughed within herself, saying: ‘After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?’
18.13 And the LORD said unto Abraham: ‘Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying: Shall I of a surety bear a child, who am old?
18.14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD. At the set time I will return unto thee, when the season cometh round, and Sarah shall have a son.’
18.15 Then Sarah denied, saying: ‘I laughed not’; for she was afraid. And He said: ‘Nay; but thou didst laugh.’
18.18 eeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
18.20 And the LORD said: ‘Verily, the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and, verily, their sin is exceeding grievous.
18.26 And the LORD said: ‘If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will forgive all the place for their sake.’ 18.27 And Abraham answered and said: ‘Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, who am but dust and ashes.
19.20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one; oh, let me escape thither—is it not a little one?—and my soul shall live.’ 19.21 And he said unto him: ‘See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou hast spoken.
21.6 And Sarah said: ‘God hath made laughter for me; every one that heareth will laugh on account of me.’ 2

"2.7 I will tell of the decree: The LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee." '2.8 Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession.
8.4 When I behold Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, The moon and the stars, which Thou hast established; 8.5 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him?
24.7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; that the King of glory may come in.
24.9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, Yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors; That the King of glory may come in.' "24.10 'Who then is the King of glory? The LORD of hosts; He is the King of glory.'

41.13 And as for me, Thou upholdest me because of mine integrity, and settest me before Thy face for ever.
73.28 But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, That I may tell of all Thy works.
74.12 Yet God is my King of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.
82.6 I said: Ye are godlike beings, and all of you sons of the Most High.

104.1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with glory and majesty. 104.2 Who coverest Thyself with light as with a garment, who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain;
104.24 How manifold are Thy works, O LORD! In wisdom hast Thou made them all; The earth is full of Thy creatures. 104.25 Yonder sea, great and wide, Therein are creeping things innumerable, Living creatures, both small and great. 104.26 There go the ships; There is leviathan, whom Thou hast formed to sport therein.'

1.4 Ah sinful nation, A people laden with iniquity, A seed of evil-doers, Children that deal corruptly; They have forsaken the LORD, They have contemned the Holy One of Israel, They are turned away backward.
1.9 Except the LORD of hosts Had left unto us a very small remt, We should have been as Sodom, We should have been like unto Gomorrah.
1.16 Wash you, make you clean, Put away the evil of your doings From before Mine eyes, Cease to do evil; 1.17 Learn to do well; Seek justice, relieve the oppressed, Judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. 1.18 Come now, and let us reason together, Saith the LORD; Though your sins be as scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they be red like crimson, They shall be as wool. 1.19 If ye be willing and obedient, Ye shall eat the good of the land; 1.20 But if ye refuse and rebel, Ye shall be devoured with the sword; For the mouth of the LORD hath spoken.
1.24 Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, The Mighty One of Israel: Ah, I will ease Me of Mine adversaries, And avenge Me of Mine enemies;
5.7 For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah the plant of His delight; And He looked for justice, but behold violence; For righteousness, but behold a cry.
6.3 And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory.
6.10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.’
7.14 Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
9.6 That the government may be increased, and of peace there be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it through justice and through righteousness From henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts doth perform this.
10.24 Therefore thus saith the Lord, the GOD of hosts: O My people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of Asshur, though he smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
10.26 And the LORD of hosts shall stir up against him a scourge, as in the slaughter of Midian at the Rock of Oreb; and as His rod was over the sea, so shall He lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
11.11 And it shall come to pass in that day, That the Lord will set His hand again the second time To recover the remt of His people, That shall remain from Assyria, and from Egypt, And from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, And from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. 11.12 And He will set up an ensign for the nations, And will assemble the dispersed of Israel, And gather together the scattered of Judah From the four corners of the earth.
19.4 And I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
19.12 Where are they, then, thy wise men? And let them tell thee now; And let them know what the LORD of hosts Hath purposed concerning Egypt.
19.16 In that day shall Egypt be like unto women; and it shall tremble and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which He shaketh over it. 1
9.17 And the land of Judah shall become a terror unto Egypt, whensoever one maketh mention thereof to it; it shall be afraid, because of the purpose of the LORD of hosts, which He purposeth against it. 19.18 In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called The city of destruction. 19.19 In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD. 19.20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and He will send them a saviour, and a defender, who will deliver them.
19.25 for that the LORD of hosts hath blessed him, saying: ‘Blessed be Egypt My people and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel Mine inheritance.’
26.19 Thy dead shall live, my dead bodies shall arise— Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust— For Thy dew is as the dew of light, And the earth shall bring to life the shades. 26.20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, And shut thy doors about thee; Hide thyself for a little moment, Until the indignation be overpast. 26.21 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of His place To visit upon the inhabitants of the earth their iniquity; The earth also shall disclose her blood, And shall no more cover her slain.
34.4 And all the host of heaven shall moulder away, And the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll; And all their host shall fall down, As the leaf falleth off from the vine, And as a falling fig from the fig-tree.
37.16 ’O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, that sittest upon the cherubim, Thou art the God, even Thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; Thou hast made heaven and earth.
37.18 of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the countries, and their land, 37.19 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them. 37.20 Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that Thou art the LORD, even Thou only.’
40.2 Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins. 40.3 Hark! one calleth: ‘Clear ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make plain in the desert a highway for our God.
40.8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth; But the word of our God shall stand for ever.’
40.10 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One, And His arm will rule for Him; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His recompense before Him. 40.11 Even as a shepherd that feedeth his flock, That gathereth the lambs in his arm, And carrieth them in his bosom, And gently leadeth those that give suck.
40.18 To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness will ye compare unto Him? 40.19 The image perchance, which the craftsman hath melted, And the goldsmith spread over with gold, The silversmith casting silver chains?
40.20 A holm-oak is set apart, He chooseth a tree that will not rot; He seeketh unto him a cunning craftsman To set up an image, that shall not be moved.
40.25 To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? Saith the Holy One.
40.26 Lift up your eyes on high, And see: who hath created these? He that bringeth out their host by number, He calleth them all by name; By the greatness of His might, and for that He is strong in power, Not one faileth.
41.2 Who hath raised up one from the east, At whose steps victory attendeth? He giveth nations before him, And maketh him rule over kings; His sword maketh them as the dust, His bow as the driven stubble.
42.13 The LORD will go forth as a mighty man, He will stir up jealousy like a man of war; He will cry, yea, He will shout aloud, He will prove Himself mighty against His enemies. 4
3.14 Thus saith the LORD, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: For your sake I have sent to Babylon, And I will bring down all of them as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships of their shouting.
44.6 Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, And beside Me there is no God.
44.9 They that fashion a graven image are all of them vanity, And their delectable things shall not profit; And their own witnesses see not, nor know; That they may be ashamed. 44.10 Who hath fashioned a god, or molten an image That is profitable for nothing? 44.11 Behold, all the fellows thereof shall be ashamed; And the craftsmen skilled above men; Let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; They shall fear, they shall be ashamed together. 44.12 The smith maketh an axe, And worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, And worketh it with his strong arm; Yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth; He drinketh no water, and is faint. 44.13 The carpenter stretcheth out a line; He marketh it out with a pencil; He fitteth it with planes, And he marketh it out with the compasses, And maketh it after the figure of a man, According to the beauty of a man, to dwell in the house. 44.14 He heweth him down cedars, And taketh the ilex and the oak, And strengtheneth for himself one among the trees of the forest; He planteth a bay-tree, and the rain doth nourish it. 44.15 Then a man useth it for fuel; And he taketh thereof, and warmeth himself; Yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; Yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; He maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto. 44.16 He burneth the half thereof in the fire; With the half thereof he eateth flesh; He roasteth roast, and is satisfied; Yea, he warmeth himself, and saith: ‘Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire’; 44.17 And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image; He falleth down unto it and worshippeth, and prayeth unto it, And saith: ‘Deliver me, for thou art my god.’ 44.18 They know not, neither do they understand; For their eyes are bedaubed, that they cannot see, And their hearts, that they cannot understand. 44.19 And none considereth in his heart, Neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say: ‘I have burned the half of it in the fire; Yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh and eaten it; And shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?’ 44.20 He striveth after ashes, A deceived heart hath turned him aside, That he cannot deliver his soul, nor say: ‘Is there not a lie in my right hand?’
45.1 Thus saith the LORD to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him, and to loose the loins of kings; to open the doors before him, and that the gates may not be shut:
45.11 Thus saith the LORD, The Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: Ask Me of the things that are to come; Concerning My sons, and concerning the work of My hands, command ye Me.
46.9 Remember the former things of old: That I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me;
48.13 Yea, My hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, And My right hand hath spread out the heavens; When I call unto them, They stand up together.
49.7 Thus saith the LORD, The Redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, To him who is despised of men, To him who is abhorred of nations, To a servant of rulers: Kings shall see and arise, Princes, and they shall prostrate themselves; Because of the LORD that is faithful, Even the Holy One of Israel, who hath chosen thee.
49.14 But Zion said: ‘The LORD hath forsaken me, And the Lord hath forgotten me.’ 49.15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, That she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, these may forget, Yet will not I forget thee.
51.2 Look unto Abraham your father, And unto Sarah that bore you; For when he was but one I called him, And I blessed him, and made him many.
51.15 For I am the LORD thy God, Who stirreth up the sea, that the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is His name.
52.11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, Touch no unclean thing; Go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, Ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.
54.5 For thy Maker is thy husband, The LORD of hosts is His name; And the Holy One of Israel is thy Redeemer, The God of the whole earth shall He be called.
54.7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; But with great compassion will I gather thee.
54.9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto Me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
55.5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, And a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; Because of the LORD thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee.
55.11 So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: It shall not return unto Me void, Except it accomplish that which I please, And make the thing whereto I sent it prosper.
57.19 Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, Saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; And I will heal him.

9.17 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, And a helmet of salvation upon His head, And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, And was clad with zeal as a cloak.
60.1 Arise, shine, for thy light is come, And the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
60.4 Lift Up thine eyes round about, and see: They all are gathered together, and come to thee; Thy sons come from far, And thy daughters are borne on the side.
60.9 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, And the ships of Tarshish first, To bring thy sons from far, Their silver and their gold with them, For the name of the LORD thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee.
60.14 And the sons of them that afflicted thee Shall come bending unto thee, And all they that despised thee shall bow down At the soles of thy feet; And they shall call thee The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
61.10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of victory, As a bridegroom putteth on a priestly diadem, And as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. 61.11 For as the earth bringeth forth her growth, And as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; So the Lord GOD will cause victory and glory To spring forth before all the nations.
62.3 Thou shalt also be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, And a royal diadem in the open hand of thy God.' ' None |

1.4 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying: 1.5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, And before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations. 1.6 Then said I: ‘Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak; for I am a child.’
4.31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, The anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, The voice of the daughter of Zion, that gaspeth for breath, That spreadeth her hands: ‘Woe is me, now! for my soul fainteth Before the murderers.’
10.2 thus saith the LORD: Learn not the way of the nations, And be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; For the nations are dismayed at them. 10.3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity; For it is but a tree which one cutteth out of the forest, The work of the hands of the workman with the axe. 10.4 They deck it with silver and with gold, They fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. 10.5 They are like a pillar in a garden of cucumbers, and speak not; They must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them, for they cannot do evil, Neither is it in them to do good. 10.6 There is none like unto Thee, O LORD; Thou art great, and Thy name is great in might. 10.7 Who would not fear Thee, O king of the nations? For it befitteth Thee; Forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royalty, There is none like unto Thee. 10.8 But they are altogether brutish and foolish: The vanities by which they are instructed are but a stock; 10.9 Silver beaten into plates which is brought from Tarshish, And gold from Uphaz, The work of the craftsman and of the hands of the goldsmith; Blue and purple is their clothing; They are all the work of skilful men. 10.10 But the LORD God is the true God, He is the living God, and the everlasting King; At His wrath the earth trembleth, And the nations are not able to abide His indignation. 10.11 Thus shall ye say unto them: ‘The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.’ 10.12 He that hath made the earth by His power, That hath established the world by His wisdom, And hath stretched out the heavens by His understanding; 10.13 At the sound of His giving a multitude of waters in the heavens, When He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; When He maketh lightnings with the rain, And bringeth forth the wind out of His treasuries; 10.14 Every man is proved to be brutish, without knowledge, Every goldsmith is put to shame by the graven image, His molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. 10.15 They are vanity, a work of delusion; In the time of their visitation they shall perish. 10.16 Not like these is the portion of Jacob; For He is the former of all things, And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; The LORD of hosts is His name.
26.18 ’Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Zion shall be plowed as a field, And Jerusalem shall become heaps, And the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
29.8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Let not your prophets that are in the midst of you, and your diviners, beguile you, neither hearken ye to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.
31.10 Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, And declare it in the isles afar off, and say: ‘He that scattered Israel doth gather him, And keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.’
31.31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covet with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah; 31.32 not according to the covet that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; forasmuch as they broke My covet, although I was a lord over them, saith the LORD. 31.33 But this is the covet that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the LORD, I will put My law in their inward parts, and in their heart will I write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people; 31.34 and they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying: ‘Know the LORD’; for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more.
33.11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for His mercy endureth for ever’, even of them that bring offerings of thanksgiving into the house of the LORD. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, saith the LORD.
51.14 The LORD of hosts hath sworn by Himself: Surely I will fill thee with men, as with the canker-worm, And they shall lift up a shout against thee.
51.19 The portion of Jacob is not like these; For He is the former of all things, And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; The LORD of hosts is His name. .' ' None |

2 Come hither and of Zeus, your father, tell, 3 Through whom all mortal men throughout their day
11 Not one, but two Strifes live on earth: when these 1
2 Are known, one’s praised, one blamed, because these two 13 Far differ. For the one makes foul war thrive, 14 The wretch, unloved of all, but the gods on high 15 Gave the decree that every man alive 16 Should that oppressive goddess glorify. 17 The other, black Night’s first-born child, the son 18 of Cronus, throned on high, set in the soil, 19 A greater boon to men; she urges on
20 Even the slack to work. One craves to toil
26 A beggar bears his fellow-beggar spite, 4
2 To judge such cases. Fools! They do not know 43 That half may well transcend the total store 44 Or how the asphodel and the mallow 45 Will benefit them much. The means of life
100 Which brought the Death-Gods. Now in misery'10
2 Grievous calamity, bringing to men 103 Dreadful distress by scattering it afar. 104 Within its firm sides, Hope alone was then
106 (The lid already stopped her, by the will
108 There roam among mankind all kinds of ill, 109 Filling both land and sea, while every day
110 Plagues haunt them, which, unwanted, come at night
111 As well, in silence, for Zeus took away
11
2 Their voice – it is not possible to fight
113 The will of Zeus. I’ll sketch now skilfully,
114 If you should welcome it, another story:
115 Take it to heart. The selfsame ancestry
116 Embraced both men and gods, who, in their glory
117 High on Olympus first devised a race
118 of gold, existing under Cronus’ reign
119 When he ruled Heaven. There was not a trace 1
20 of woe among them since they felt no pain; 1
21 There was no dread old age but, always rude 1
2
2 of health, away from grief, they took delight 1
23 In plenty, while in death they seemed subdued 1
24 By sleep. Life-giving earth, of its own right, 1
25 Would bring forth plenteous fruit. In harmony 1
26 They lived, with countless flocks of sheep, at ease
133 The land, bestowing wealth, this kingly right 134 Being theirs – a second race the Olympians made, 135 A silver one, far worse, unlike, in sight 136 And mind, the golden, for a young child stayed, 137 A large bairn, in his mother’s custody, 138 Just playing inside for a hundred years. 139 But when they all reached their maturity, 140 They lived a vapid life, replete with tears, 141 Through foolishness, unable to forbear 14
2 To brawl, spurning the gods, refusing, too, 15
2 With iron, full invincibility 153 In hands, limbs, shoulders, and the arms they plied
156 It was self-slaughter – they descended to 157 Chill Hades’ mouldy house, without a name. 158 Yes, black death took them off, although they’d been 159 Impetuous, and they the sun’s bright flame 160 Would see no more, nor would this race be seen 161 Themselves, screened by the earth. Cronus’ son then 16
2 Fashioned upon the lavish land one more, 163 The fourth, more just and brave – of righteous men, 164 Called demigods. It was the race before 165 Our own upon the boundless earth. Foul war 166 And dreadful battles vanquished some of these, 167 While some in Cadmus’ Thebes, while looking for 168 The flocks of Oedipus, found death. The sea 169 Took others as they crossed to Troy fight 170 For fair-tressed Helen. They were screened as well 171 In death. Lord Zeus arranged it that they might 17
2 Live far from others. Thus they came to dwell, 173 Carefree, among the blessed isles, content
176 To them by the earth, that gives vitality 177 To all mankind, and Cronus was their lord, 178 Far from the other gods, for Zeus, who reign 179 Over gods and men, had cut away the cord 180 That bound him. Though the lowest race, its gain 19
2 Grey hair. No bond a father with his boy
200 That’s given to the honest, just and kind.
20
2 Might will be right and shame shall cease to be,
203 The bad will harm the good whom they shall maim
204 With crooked words, swearing false oaths. We’ll see
205 Envy among the wretched, foul of face
206 And voice, adoring villainy, and then
207 Into Olympus from the endless space
208 Mankind inhabits, leaving mortal men,
209 Fair flesh veiled by white robes, shall Probity
210 And Shame depart, and there’ll be grievous pain
2
11 For men: against all evil there shall be
21
2 No safeguard. Now I’ll tell, for lords who know
238 Woe to the wicked men who ousted her.
240 However, when to both the foreigner
241 And citizen are given judgments fair
248 Bees thrive below, and mothers all give birth
250 Their fathers, while the fleeces on the sheep
25
2 Needs not a ship; the vital soil is deep
253 With fruits. Far-seeing Zeus evens the score
254 Against proud, evil men. The wickedne
255 of one man often sways whole cities, for
256 The son of Cronus sends from heaven distress,
257 Both plague and famine, causing death amid
258 Its folk, its women barren. Homes decline
259 By Zeus’s plan. Sometimes he will consign
260 Broad armies to destruction or will bid
261 Them of their walls and take their ships away.
26
2 Lords, note this punishment. The gods are nigh
280 Makes wicked plans, he’ll be the most distressed.
281 All-seeing Zeus sees all there is to see
28
2 And, should he wish, takes note nor fails to know
283 The justice in a city. I’d not be
286 Holds sway. I trust wise Zeus won’t punish me.
287 Perses, remember this, serve righteousne
288 And wholly sidestep the iniquity
289 of force. The son of Cronus made this act
290 For men - that fish, wild beasts and birds should eat
291 Each other, being lawless, but the pact
29
2 He made with humankind is very meet –
336 Should not be seized – god-sent, it’s better far. 337 If someone steals great riches by dure
339 Quite often, when his mind in cloudine
654 Unyoke your team and grant a holiday. 655 When rosy-fingered Dawn first gets a view
658 of grapes and bring them home; then to the sun
668 To flee Orion’s rain, the Pleiade
706 of Greeks here waited out the stormy gale, 7
24 Seafarers slaughter, nor will any man 7
25 Shatter his ship, unless such is the will 7
26 of earth-shaking Poseidon or our king,
730 Your ship with confidence and place all freight
733 Or fast-approaching blizzards, new-made wine, 734 The South Wind’s dreadful blasts – he stirs the sea 735 And brings downpours in spring and makes the brine 736 Inclement. Spring, too, grants humanity
738 On fig-tree-tops, as tiny as the mark 739 A raven leaves, the sea becomes serene 740 For sailing. Though spring bids you to embark, 741 I’ll not praise it – it does not gladden me.
755 Your bride should go four years: in the fifth year 756 Wed her. That you may teach her modesty 757 Marry a maid. The best would be one who 758 Lives near you, but you must with care look round 759 Lest neighbours make a laughingstock of you. 80

18 ἀθανάτων, οἳ ἔχουσι κάρη νιφόεντος Ὀλύμπου,
1
19 Τάρταρά τʼ ἠερόεντα μυχῷ χθονὸς εὐρυοδείης,

122 δάμναται ἐν στήθεσσι νόον καὶ ἐπίφρονα βουλήν.
123 ἐκ Χάεος δʼ Ἔρεβός τε μέλαινά τε Νὺξ ἐγένοντο·
124 Νυκτὸς δʼ αὖτʼ Αἰθήρ τε καὶ Ἡμέρη ἐξεγένοντο,
125 οὓς τέκε κυσαμένη Ἐρέβει φιλότητι μιγεῖσα.
1
26 Γαῖα δέ τοι πρῶτον μὲν ἐγείνατο ἶσον ἑαυτῇ
127 Οὐρανὸν ἀστερόενθʼ, ἵνα μιν περὶ πάντα καλύπτοι,

129 γείνατο δʼ Οὔρεα μακρά, θεῶν χαρίεντας ἐναύλους,
130 Νυμφέων, αἳ ναίουσιν ἀνʼ οὔρεα βησσήεντα.
13
1 ἣ δὲ καὶ ἀτρύγετον πέλαγος τέκεν, οἴδματι θυῖον,

137 τοὺς δὲ μέθʼ ὁπλότατος γένετο Κρόνος ἀγκυλομήτης,
139 γείνατο δʼ αὖ Κύκλωπας ὑπέρβιον ἦτορ ἔχοντας,
1
54 ὅσσοι γὰρ Γαίης τε καὶ Οὐρανοῦ ἐξεγένοντο,
155 δεινότατοι παίδων, σφετέρῳ δʼ ἤχθοντο τοκῆι
156 ἐξ ἀρχῆς· καὶ τῶν μὲν ὅπως τις πρῶτα γένοιτο,
157 πάντας ἀποκρύπτασκε, καὶ ἐς φάος οὐκ ἀνίεσκε,
158 Γαίης ἐν κευθμῶνι, κακῷ δʼ ἐπετέρπετο ἔργῳ
159 Οὐρανός. ἣ δʼ ἐντὸς στοναχίζετο Γαῖα πελώρη

16

162 τεῦξε μέγα δρέπανον καὶ ἐπέφραδε παισὶ φίλοισιν·
163 εἶπε δὲ θαρσύνουσα, φίλον τετιημένη ἦτορ·
1
64 παῖδες ἐμοὶ καὶ πατρὸς ἀτασθάλου, αἴ κʼ ἐθέλητε
165 πείθεσθαι, πατρός κε κακὴν τισαίμεθα λώβην
166 ὑμετέρου· πρότερος γὰρ ἀεικέα μήσατο ἔργα.
167 ὣς φάτο· τοὺς δʼ ἄρα πάντας ἕλεν δέος, οὐδέ τις αὐτῶν
168 φθέγξατο. θαρσήσας δὲ μέγας Κρόνος ἀγκυλομήτης

172 ἡμετέρου· πρότερος γὰρ ἀεικέα μήσατο ἔργα.
173 ὣς φάτο· γήθησεν δὲ μέγα φρεσὶ Γαῖα πελώρη·
174 εἷσε δέ μιν κρύψασα λόχῳ· ἐνέθηκε δὲ χερσὶν
175 ἅρπην καρχαρόδοντα· δόλον δʼ ὑπεθήκατο πάντα.
1

26 αὐτὰρ Ἔρις στυγερὴ τέκε μὲν Πόνον ἀλγινόεντα 227 Λήθην τε Λιμόν τε καὶ Ἄλγεα δακρυόεντα 228 Ὑσμίνας τε Μάχας τε Φόνους τʼ Ἀνδροκτασίας τε 229 Νείκεά τε ψευδέας τε Λόγους Ἀμφιλλογίας τε 230 Δυσνομίην τʼ Ἄτην τε, συνήθεας ἀλλήλῃσιν, 23

309 Ὄρθον μὲν πρῶτον κύνα γείνατο Γηρυονῆι· 3

340 Φᾶσίν τε Ῥῆσόν τʼ Ἀχελώιόν τʼ ἀργυροδίνην

64 τρὶς γὰρ χίλιαί εἰσι τανύσφυροι Ὠκεανῖναι,
368 υἱέες Ὠκεανοῦ, τοὺς γείνατο πότνια Τηθύς· 37
1 θεία δʼ Ἠέλιόν τε μέγαν λαμπράν τε Σελήνην 372 Ἠῶ θʼ, ἣ πάντεσσιν ἐπιχθονίοισι φαείνει 373 ἀθανάτοις τε θεοῖσι, τοὶ οὐρανὸν εὐρὺν ἔχουσι, 374 γείναθʼ ὑποδμηθεῖσʼ Ὑπερίονος ἐν φιλότητι.
384 Ζῆλον καὶ Νίκην καλλίσφυρον ἐν μεγάροισιν· 385 καὶ Κράτος ἠδὲ Βίην ἀριδείκετα γείνατο τέκνα, 386 τῶν οὐκ ἔστʼ ἀπάνευθε Διὸς δόμος, οὐδέ τις ἕδρη, 387 οὐδʼ ὁδός, ὅππη μὴ κείνοις θεὸς ἡγεμονεύῃ, 388 ἀλλʼ αἰεὶ πὰρ Ζηνὶ βαρυκτύπῳ ἑδριόωνται.

406 Λητὼ κυανόπεπλον ἐγείνατο, μείλιχον αἰεί,

1 From the Heliconian Muses let me sing:' 2 They dance on soft feet round the deep-blue spring 3 And shrine of Cronus’ mighty son upon 4 The great and holy mount of Helicon. 5 They wash their tender frames in Permesso 6 Or Horses’ Spring or holy Olmeio 7 And then display their fair terpsichory 8 On that high mountain, moving vigorously; 9 They wander through the night, all veiled about
10 With heavy mist and lovely songs sing out
1
1 To Zeus, the aegis-bearer, lavishing hymns,
12 And her whose golden sandals grace her limbs,
13 Hera, the queen of Argos, and grey-eyed
14 Athena, Phoebus and her who casts side-
15 Long glances, Aphrodite, Artemis, too,
16 The archeress, and Lord Poseidon who
17 Both holds and shakes the earth, Themis the blest
18 And Hebe, too, who wears a golden crest,
19 And fair Dione, Leto, Iapeto 20 And crafty Cronos, Eos, Helio 2
1 The mighty, bright Selene, Oceanos, Ge, 22 Black Night and each sacred divinity 23 That lives forever. Hesiod was taught
26 of Helicon, and in those early day 27 Those daughters of Lord Zeus proclaimed to me:
33 A sturdy laurel shoot, plucked from the ground,
43 With one accord. Unwearied, all around 44 The house their lips emit the sweetest sound,
49 Through the immortals’ homes. They glorify,
54 The father of all gods and men, telling 6
1 Among the hills, coupled with Zeus and bore
64 With wise Zeus in his holy bed, away 7
1 The Graces and Desire dwelt quite free 72 of care while singing songs delightfully 73 of the gods’ laws and all the goodly way 74 of the immortals. offering up their praise
76 In their mellifluous tones and uttering 77 Their heavenly song. The black earth echoed round 78 And underneath their feet a lovely sound
80 With lightning and with thunder holding sway 8
1 In heaven, once Cronus he’d subjugated 82 As to the immortals he disseminated 83 Their rights. Lord Zeus begat this company 84 of Muses, Thalia, Melpomene, 85 Clio, Euterpe and Terpsichory, 86 And Polyhymnia, Calliope, 87 Urania, Erato: but the best 88 of all of them, deferred to by the rest 89 of all the Muses is Calliope 90 Because the kings blest by divinity 9
1 She serves. Each god-nursed king whom they adore, 92 Beholding him at birth, for him they pour 93 Sweet dew upon his tongue that there may flow 94 Kind words from hm; thus all the people go 95 To see him arbitrate successfully 96 Their undertakings and unswervingly
10
1 And he stood out among them. Thus were they
104 Men sing and play the lyre, but the birth
105 of kings comes from Lord Zeus. Happy are those
106 Loved by the Muses, for sweet speaking flow
107 Out of their mouths. One in a sudden plight
108 May live in sorrow, trembling with fright
109 And sick at heart, but singers, ministering
1
10 To the Muses, of their ancestors will sing
1
1
1 And all the deeds that they’ve performed so well,
1
12 And all the gods who in Olympus dwell:
1
13 At once they then forget their heaviness –
1
14 Such is the precious gift of each goddess.
1
15 Hail, Zeus’s progeny, and give to me
1
16 A pleasing song and laud the company
1
17 of the immortal gods, and those created
1
18 In earthly regions and those generated
1
19 In Heaven and Night and in the briny sea.
120 Tell how the gods and Earth first came to be,
12
1 The streams, the swelling sea and up on high
122 The gleaming stars, broad Heaven in the sky,
123 The gods they spawned, providing generously
124 Good things, dividing their prosperity
125 And sharing all their honours, and how they
1
26 To many-valed Olympus found their way.
127 Therefore, Olympian Muses, tell to me,
128 From the beginning, how each came to be.
129 First Chaos came, then wide Earth, ever-sound
130 Foundations of the gods who on snow-bound
13
1 Olympus dwell, then, swathed in murkine
132 Beneath the wide-pathed Earth, came Tartarus,
1
33 Then Eros, fairest of the deathless ones,
134 Who weakens all the gods and men and stun
135 Their prudent judgment. Chaos then created
137 With Erebus and spawned Aether and Day;
139 Be covered, first bore Heaven, who was replete
1
54 The wily Cronus, such a dreadful son
155 To lusty Heaven, the vilest of all these
156 Divinities. She bore the Cyclopes –
157 Brontes, who gave the thunderbolt to Zeus,
158 And Steropes, who also for his use
159 Gave lightning, and Arges, so strong of heart.
160 The only thing that made them stand apart
16
1 From all the other gods was one sole eye
162 That stood upon their foreheads: that is why
163 We call them Cyclopes. Both skilfulne
1
64 And mighty strength did all of them possess.
165 There were three other children, odiou
166 Though spirited – Cottus, Briareu
167 And Gyges, all full of effrontery:
168 Even to be in their vicinity
169 Was dangerous – of arms they had five score,
170 Sprung from their shoulders ; fifty heads, what’s more,
17
1 They had on brawny limbs; none could suppre
172 Their perseverance or their mightiness.
173 They were the foulest of the progeny
174 of Earth and Heaven and earned the enmity
175 of their own father, for, as soon as they
1
76 Were given birth, he hid them all away
177 Deep in the earth’s recesses, far from the light,
178 And in his evil deeds took great delight.
179 But vast Earth groaned aloud in her distre
1
80 And so devised a piece of cleverness,
18
1 An evil ruse: a mass of flint she made
182 And of it shaped a sickle, then relayed
183 Her scheme to all her brood in consolation,
184 Although her heart was sore with indignation.
185 “Children, your father’s sinful, so hear me,”
186 She said, “that he might pay the penalty.”
187 They stood in silent fear at what she’d said,
188 But wily Cronus put aside his dread
189 And answered, “I will do what must be done,
190 Mother. I don’t respect The Evil One.”
19
1 At what he said vast Earth was glad at heart
192 And in an ambush set her child apart
193 And told him everything she had in mind.
194 Great Heaven brought the night and, since he pined
195 To couple, lay with Earth. Cronus revealed
196 Himself from where he had been well concealed,
197 Stretched out one hand and with the other gripped
198 The great, big, jagged sickle and then ripped
199 His father’s genitals off immediately 200 And cast them down, nor did they fruitlessly 20
1 Descend behind him, because Earth conceived 202 The Furies and the Giants, who all wore 203 Bright-gleaming armour, and long spears they bore, 204 And the Nymphs, called Meliae by everyone; 205 And when the flinty sickle’s work was done, 206 Then Cronus cast into the surging sea 207 His father’s genitals which were to be 208 Borne long upon the waves, and there was spread 2
10 White foam from the timeless flesh: from it was bred 2
1
1 A maid: holy Cythera first she neared, 2
12 Then came to sea-girt Cyprus. A revered 2
13 And lovely goddess she became. Grass grew 2
14 Beneath her feet, and men and gods all knew 2
15 Her then as Aphrodite, Nursed Around 2
16 The Foam Upon The Sea, and richly-crowned 2
17 Cytherea, which she’d reached. She’s known as well, 2
18 Because she first saw light amid the swell 2
19 of Cyprian shores, The Cyprian. One more name 220 She’s known by, since from genitals she came, 22
1 Is Philommedes, Genial-Loving One. 222 Love and Desire formed a union 223 With her the moment she was born: all three 224 of them then went to join the company 225 of all the gods. This honour she attained 2
26 From the beginning and this share she gained 227 Among both men and gods – the whispering 228 of maids who are in love, their giggling, 229 Sweet loving, gentleness and trickery 230 In love affairs. Great Heaven’s progeny 23
1 He labelled Titans for they used huge strain 232 To do a dreadful deed, and so the pain 2
33 of punishment would follow. Night gave breath 2
54 The Telling of Untruths and Arguing,
270 Galene, Thetis, Eudora, Glauce, 27
1 Fair Halie, Cymothoe. Speo, 272 Pasithea, Theo and Erato, 273 Eulimene and gracious Melite 274 And Doto, Proto, pink-armed Eunice,
277 Panopea, pink-armed Hipponoe, 278 Fair Galatea and Cymodoce 279 (With Amphitrite and Cymatolege 28
1 Protomedea, Cymo, Eione, 29
1 Sprang from fine Nereus, who was talented
305 And liquid songs, Sthenno and Euryale 306 And her who bore a woeful destiny,
309 In age) and then the dark-haired god of the sea, 3
13 From her dead body, Pegasus called thu 3
14 Since he was born near the springs of Oceanus, 3
15 Chrysaor since at the moment of his birth 3
16 He held a gold sword. Pegasus left the earth, 3
17 The mother of all flocks, and flew away 3
18 Up to the deathless gods, where he would stay: 3
19 He brought to prudent Zeus his weaponry, 320 Thunder and lightning. To Callirrhoe, 32
1 Begat by glorious Ocean, Chrysaor 322 Was joined in love, and Calirrhoe bore 323 The creature with three heads, Geryones, 324 But in sea-girt Erythea, Heracle 325 Slew him among his oxen on that day 3
26 He drove his wide-browed oxen on the way 327 To holy Tiryns, after he had gone 328 Across the sea and slain Eurytion 329 The herdsman in an inky-black homestead
330 And Orthus. She then bore a monster, dread
33
1 And powerful, in a hollow cave: and it
332 Looked like no god or man, no, not a whit,
333 And fierce Echidna, who, with flashing eye
334 And prepossessing cheeks, displays the guise
335 of a nymph – well, that was half of her at least,
340 A hollow rock where none would ever go,
342 A glorious house for her, and she indeed
350 The loud-voiced Cerberus who eats raw meat,
359 Athene, with his ruthless sword. And she 3
64 And then a fiery goat’s, the third in the guise
368 To adulthood the deadly Sphinx who slew 37
1 In the Nemean hills, a plague to all 372 Its people, proving, too, a pestilent gall 373 To her own tribes, and he had mastery 374 Over Tretus and Apesas, yet he
384 The silver eddies of Achelous, 385 The Haliacmon, the Heptaporus, 386 The Nessus, Rhodius, the Granicus, 387 The holy Simois, the Aesepus, 388 The Peneus, Hermus, the fair Caïcus,
392 of daughters who received the godly grace 393 of Zeus to nurture young men, with the aid 394 of Phoebus and the rivers I’ve displayed, 395 Across the earth – Electra and Peitho, 396 Admete, Ianthe, Doris and Prymno,
400 Thoe and fair Dione and Plexaura,
403 Ianeira, Perseis, soft-eyed Pluto,
406 The saffron-clad, the charming Calypso,
409 The chiefest, Styx. And yet Oceanu 4
1
1 In fact three thousand of them, every one 4
12 Neat-ankled, spread through his dominion, 4
13 Serving alike the earth and mighty seas, 4
14 And all of them renowned divinities. 4
15 They have as many brothers, thundering 4
16 As on they flow, begotten by the king 4
17 of seas on Tethys. Though it’s hard to tell 4
18 Their names, yet they are known from where they dwell. 4
19 Hyperion lay with Theia, and she thu 420 Bore clear Selene and great Heliu 42
1 And Eos shining on all things on earth 422 And on the gods who dwell in the wide berth 423 of heaven. Eurybia bore great Astraeu 424 And Pallas, having mingled with Crius; 425 The bright goddess to Perses, too, gave birth, 4
26 Who was the wisest man on all the earth; 427 Eos bore the strong winds to Astraeus, 428 And Boreas, too, and brightening Zephyru 429 And Notus, born of two divinities.
430 The star Eosphorus came after these,
43
1 Birthed by Eugeneia, ‘Early-Born’,
432 Who came to be the harbinger of Dawn, 4
33 And heaven’s gleaming stars far up above.
434 And Ocean’s daughter Styx was joined in love
435 To Pelias – thus trim-ankled Victory
436 And Zeal first saw the light of day; and she
437 Bore Strength and Force, both glorious children: they
438 Dwell in the house of Zeus; they’ve no pathway
439 Or dwelling that’s without a god as guide, 440 And ever they continue to reside 44
1 With Zeus the Thunderer; thus Styx had planned 442 That day when Lightning Zeus sent a command 4
43 That all the gods to broad Olympus go 444 And said that, if they helped him overthrow 445 The Titans, then he vowed not to bereave 446 Them of their rights but they would still receive 447 The rights they’d had before, and, he explained, 448 To those who under Cronus had maintained 4
49 No rights or office he would then entrust 450 Those very privileges, as is just. 45
1 So deathless Styx, with all her progeny, 452 Was first to go, through the sagacity 453 of her fear father, and Zeus gave her fame 4
54 With splendid gifts, and through him she became 455 The great oath of the gods, her progeny 456 Allowed to live with him eternally. 457 He kept his vow, continuing to reign 458 Over them all. Then Phoebe once again 459 With Coeus lay and brought forth the goddess, 460 Dark-gowned Leto, so full of gentlene 46
1 To gods always – she was indeed 462 The gentlest of the gods. From Coeus’ seed 463 Phoebe brought forth Asterie, aptly named, 4
64 Whom Perseus took to his great house and claimed 465 As his dear wife, and she bore Hecate, 466 Whom Father Zeus esteemed exceedingly. 467 He gave her splendid gifts that she might keep 468 A portion of the earth and barren deep. 469 Even now, when a man, according to convention, 470 offers great sacrifices, his intention 47
1 To beg good will he calls on Hecate. 472 He whom the goddess looks on favourably 473 Easily gains great honour. She bestow 474 Prosperity upon him. Among those 475 Born of both Earth and Ocean who possessed 4
76 Illustriousness she was likewise blest. 477 Lord Zeus, the son of Cronus, did not treat 478 Her grievously and neither did he cheat 479 Her of what those erstwhile divinities, 4
80 The Titans, gave her: all the libertie 48
1 They had from the beginning in the sea 482 And on the earth and in the heavens, she 483 Still holds. And since Hecate does not posse 484 Siblings, of honour she receives no less, 485 Since Zeus esteems her, nay, she gains yet more. 486 To those she chooses she provides great store 487 of benefits. As intermediary, 488 She sits beside respected royalty. 489 In the assembly those who are preferred
490 By her she elevates, and when men gird
49
1 Themselves for deadly battle, there she’ll be
492 To grant to those she chooses victory
493 And glory. She is helpful, too, when men
494 Contend in games, for she is present then
495 To see the strongest gain the victory
496 And win with ease the rich prize joyfully,
497 Ennobling his parents. She aids, too,
498 The horsemen she espouses and those who
499 Are forced to ply the grey and stormy sea 500 And prey to Poseidon and Queen Hecate,
506 She’ll cause a dearth if she should will it so. 56
1 The marvel to all men, and he set free
590 So that the bird could once more take away 59
1 What had been there before. Heracles, the son 592 of trim-ankled Clymene, was the one 593 Who slew that bird and from his sore distre 594 Released Prometheus – thus his wretchedne 595 Was over, and it was with Zeus’s will, 596 Who planned that hero would be greater still 597 Upon the rich earth than he was before. 598 Lord Zeus then took these things to heart therefore; 599 He ceased the anger he had felt when he 600 Had once been matched in ingenuity 60
1 By Prometheus, for when several gods and men 602 Had wrangled at Mecone, even then 603 Prometheus calved a giant ox and set 604 A share before each one, trying to get 605 The better of Lord Zeus – before the rest 606 He set the juicy parts, fattened and dressed 607 With the ox’s paunch, then very cunningly 608 For Zeus he took the white bones up, then he 609 Marked them with shining fat. “O how unfair,” 6
10 Spoke out the lord of gods and men, “to share 6
1
1 That way, most glorious lord and progeny 6
12 of Iapetus.” Zeus, whose sagacity
793 of the wide earth. They may not leave this snare 794 Because bronze portals had been fitted there 795 By Lord Poseidon, and upon each side 796 A wall runs round it. There those three reside, 797 Great-souled Obriareus, Cottus and Gyes, 798 The faithful guardians and orderlie 799 of aegis-bearing Zeus, and there exist
800 The springs and boundaries, filled full of mist
80
1 And gloom, of Earth and Hell and the barren sea
802 And starry heaven, arranged sequentially,
803 Loathsome and dank, by each divinity
804 Detested: it’s a massive cavity,
825 Or climbing back to Heaven. Day peacefully 8
26 Roams through the earth and the broad backs of the sea, 88
1 of Chaos. But the glorious allie 882 of thunderous Zeus dwell where the Ocean lies, 883 Even Cottus and Gyes. But Briareus, 884 Because he is upright, the clamorou
886 Gave him in marriage to his progeny 887 Cymopolea. When Zeus, in the war, 888 Drove the Titans out of Heaven, huge Earth bore 889 Her youngest child Typhoeus with the aid 890 of golden Aphrodite, who had bade 89
1 Her lie with Tartarus. In everything 892 He did the lad was strong, untiring 893 When running, and upon his shoulders spread 894 A hundred-headed dragon, full of dread, 895 Its dark tongues flickering, and from below 896 His eyes a flashing flame was seen to glow; 897 And from each head shot fire as he glared
899 Sometimes a god could understand the sound 900 They made, but sometimes, echoing around, 90
1 A bull, unruly, proud and furious, 902 Would sound, sometimes a lion, mercile 903 At heart, sometimes – most wonderful to hear – 904 The sound of whelps was heard, sometimes the ear 905 Would catch a hissing sound, which then would change 906 To echoing along the mountain range. 907 Something beyond all help would have that day 908 Occurred and over men and gods hold sway 909 Had Zeus not quickly seen it: mightily 9
10 And hard he thundered so that terribly 9
1
1 The earth resounded, as did Tartarus, 9
12 Wide Heaven and the streams of Oceanus, 9
13 And at his feet the mighty Heaven reeled 9
14 As he arose. The earth groaned, thunder pealed 9
15 And lightning flashed, and to the dark-blue sea, 9
16 From them and from the fiery prodigy, 9
17 The scorching winds and blazing thunderbolt, 9
18 Came heat, the whole earth seething in revolt 92
1 of gods. An endless shaking, too, arose,
923 Who are deceased, shook, and the Titan horde 924 Beneath that Hell, residing with the lord 925 Cronus, shook too at the disharmony 9
26 And dreadful clamour. When his weaponry, 927 Thunder and lightning, Zeus had seized, his might 928 Well-shored, from high Olympus he took flight, 929 Lashed out at him and burned that prodigy, 930 Igniting all those wondrous heads. When he 93
1 Had conquered him, belabouring him so
937 Scorched by a terrible vapour, liquefied
940 The hardest of all things, which men subdue 94
1 With fire in mountain-glens and with the glow 942 Causes the sacred earth to melt: just so 9
43 The earth now fused, and to wide Tartaru 944 In bitter anger Zeus cast Typhoeus, 945 From whom unruly, wet winds issued forth, 946 Except the Zephyr, and the South and North, 947 For they are sent by the gods and are to all 948 A boon; the others, though, fitfully fall 9
49 Upon the sea, and there some overthrow 950 Sailors and ships as fearfully they blow 95
1 In every season, making powerle 952 The sailors. Others haunt the limitle 953 And blooming earth, where recklessly they spoil 9
54 The splendid crops that mortals sweat and toil 955 To cultivate, and cruel agitation 96
1 Divided among the gods their dignities.
965 Her time arrived to bring forth the godde
969 So that no other god should ever hold sway,
973 As Father Zeus, but later she would bring 974 Into the world an overbearing king 975 of gods and men. Before his birth, though, he
978 Themis, who bore The Hours, Order, Right
986 And fair Thaleia, whose glance lovingly 987 Melted the limbs of all. Indeed the eye 988 of all of them were fit to hypnotize 989 Those whom they looked upon; and furthermore 990 He wed nourishing Demeter, who then bore 99
1 A daughter, the fair-armed Persephone
1003 Who Eileithyia, Hebe and Ares bore.
1004 But Zeus himself yet brought forth, furthermore,
1005 Bright-eyed Tritogeneia from his head,
1006 The queen who stirred up conflict and who led
1007 Her troops in dreadful strife, unwearying,
1008 In tumults and in battles revelling.
1009 But Hera with her spouse became irate,
10
10 And therefore, spurning union with her mate,
10
1
1 She brought into the world a glorious son,
10
12 Hephaestus, who transcended everyone
10
13 In Heaven in handiwork. But Zeus then lay
10
14 With Ocean’s and Tethys’ fair child, away
10
15 From Hera … He duped Metis, although she
10
16 Was splendidly intelligent. Then he
10
17 Seized her and swallowed her right then and there,
10
18 For he was fearful that she just might bear
10
19 A stronger thing than his own bolt. And then
1020 She bore Athene. The father of gods and men ' None |

7 Three hearts she cannot bend nor yet beguile: 8 Grey-eyed Athene’s one – she’ll never smile 9 At Aphrodite’s deeds. Her care is war, 10 The work of Ares, conflict, blood and gore.' 11 She was the first to teach mortals to build 12 Bronze chariots of battle, and she filled 13 Soft maids with knowledge of the arts. Also, 16 Gold-shafted Artemis, in amorousness, 1
7 For she loves slaying beasts and archery, 19 Dark groves and just men’s cities. Now the chaste 20 Istia is the third to have no taste 21 For Aphrodite’s works (first progeny 22 of wily Cronus, and the last, was she 23 By aegis-bearing Zeus’s will) - a queen 24 of whom Poseidon and Phoebus had been 25 Wooers, whom she rejected stubbornly. 26 She swore a great oath, which would come to be 2
7 Fulfilled, by touching Father Zeus’s head. 28 She’d be a virgin evermore, she said. 29 For this she was given a great reward 30 And lodged inside the house of Zeus, the lord 31 of all and got the greatest share, and she 32 Is praised in all the shrines, the primary
38 Is mightiest of all. Easily she 39 Seduces his wise heart and, at a whim,
45 Child whom with Rhea sly Cronus created. 46 With the chaste, modest goddess Zeus then mated, 4
7 The ever-wise one. Zeus, though, this godde 48 For a mortal man imbued with amorousness. 49 And she lay with him so that even she 50 Might soon know mortal love nor laughingly 51 Say gods to mortal women she had paired, 52 Creating mortal men, while men had shared, 53 Through her, goddesses’ beds. So she straightway
61 The Graces bathed her with the oil that’s seen
64 Her in, then, swathed in gold, for Troy she made 65 With speed high in the air. And thus she came
68 She came, where, fawning, grey wolves came to meet 69 Her – grim-eyed lions and speedy leopards, too,
70 Hungry for deer and bears. All, two by two,
71 Mated among the shadowy haunts. But she
72 Came to the well-built leas. And there was he -
76 The others urged their cattle all to go
7
7 With them to grassy pasturelands, yet he
78 Was playing on his lyre thrillingly
79 While strolling to and fro. And there she stood 80 Before him like a girl in maidenhood, 81 In height and mien, that she might quell his fright. 82 He saw her and he wondered at the sight –
84 Had on a robe whose shining brilliancy 85 Capped fire, gorgeous, golden and enhanced 86 With many hues and, like a moon, it glanced 8
7 Over her delicate breasts, a wondrous sight, 88 And twisted brooches, earrings shining bright, 89 And lovely necklaces were set around 90 Her tender throat. Now Eros quickly found 91 Anchises, who said: “Lady queen, may bli 92 Be on you whether you are Artemi 93 Or golden Aphrodite or, maybe, 94 Noble Themis or bright-eyed Athene 95 Or Leto? Does a Grace, p’raps, come to me? 96 (They’re called immortal, seen in company 9
7 With gods). Or else a Nymph, who’s seen around 98 The pleasant woods, or one, perhaps, who’s found 99 Upon this lovely mountain way up high 100 Or in streams’ springs or grassy meadows? I 101 Will build a shrine to you, seen far away 102 Upon a peak, and on it I will lay 103 In every season some rich offering. 104 Be gracious, granting that all men may sing 105 of my prestige in Troy, my progeny 10
7 May I live long in wealth.” Then in reply 108 The child of Zeus addressed him and said: “I 109 Am no goddess, Anchises, most sublime 110 of earth-born ones. Why do you think that I’m 111 Immortal? No, a mortal gave me birth. 112 My father’s Otreus, very well known on earth, 113 If you have heard of him. He holds command 114 In well-walled Phrygia. I understand 115 Your language well. At home have I been bred 116 By a Trojan nurse who, in my mother’s stead, 11
7 Nurtured me from a child, and that is why 118 I know your tongue as well. However, I 119 Was seized by Hermes, who took me away 120 From Artemis’s dance. A great array 121 of marriageable maids were we as we
126 Where beasts of prey roamed the dark vales. I guessed 12
7 I’d never touch the earth again. He said 128 I’d be the wedded partner of your bed 129 And birth great brood. Back to the gods he flew, 130 And here I am! I have great need of you. 131 So by your noble parents (for no-one 132 of wretched stock could create such a son) 133 And Zeus, I beg, take me to wife, who know 134 Nothing of love, a maiden pure, and show 135 Me to your parents and your brothers, who 136 Shall like me well. Then send a herald to 13
7 The swift-horsed Phrygians that immediately 1
38 My sorrowing folks shall know of this. You’ll see 139 From them much gold and woven stuff and more. 140 Take these as bride-price, then make ready for 141 A lovely wedding that for gods and men 142 Shall be immortalized. The goddess then 1
61 In bed, each twisted brooch and each earring 162 And necklace he removed – each shining thing – 163 And doffed her girdle and bright clothes and laid 1
64 Her on a golden-studded seat, then made 165 Love to her, man and goddess – destiny 16
7 Did not know what he did. But at the hour 1
7
7 Get up, Anchises! Tell me, is my guise
192 The gods love you. A son who shall be dear 193 To you shall over Troy hold sovereignty, 194 As shall his offspring in posterity. 195 His name shall be Aeneas, for the pain 196 of grief I felt inside because I’d lain 19
7 With a mortal. Yet the people of your race 198 Are the most godlike, being fair of face 199 And tall. Zeus seized golden-haired Ganymede 200 Thanks to his beauty, that he might indeed 201 Pour wine for all the gods and always be 202 Among them all – remarkable to see. 203 Honoured by all, he from the golden bowl 204 Drew the red nectar. Grief, though, filled the soul 205 of Tros, not knowing if a heaven-sent blow 206 Had snatched away his darling son, and so 20
7 He mourned day after day unceasingly. 208 In pity, Zeus gave him indemnity- 209 High-stepping horses such as carry men. 210 Hermes, the Argos-slaying leader, then, 211 At Zeus’s bidding, told him all – his son 212 Would live forever agelessly, atone 213 With all the gods. So, when he heard of thi 214 No longer did he mourn but, filled with bliss, 215 On his storm-footed horses joyfully 216 He rode away. Tithonus similarly 21
7 Was seized by golden-throned Eos – he, too, 218 Was of your race and godlike, just like you. 219 She begged dark-clouded Zeus to give consent 220 That he’d be deathless, too. Zeus granted this. 221 But thoughtless queenly Eos was amiss, 222 Not craving youth so that senility 223 Would never burden him and so, though he 224 Lived happily with Eos far away 225 On Ocean’s streams, at the first signs of grey 226 Upon his lovely head and noble chin, 22
7 She spurned his bed but cherished him within 228 Her house and gave him lovely clothes to wear, 229 Food and ambrosia. But when everywhere 230 He could not move, her best resolve for him 230 Old age oppressed him and his every limb 231 Was this – to place him in a room and close 232 The shining doors. An endless babbling rose 233 Out of his mouth; he had no strength at all 234 As once he had. I’d not have this befall 235 Yourself. But if you looked as now you do 236 Forevermore and everyone called you 23
7 My husband, I’d not grieve. But pitile 2
38 Old age will soon enshroud you – such distre 239 Will burden every mortal – wearying 240 And deadly, even by the gods a thing 241 of fear. You’ve caused great endless infamy 242 For me among the gods who formerly 243 Feared all my jibes and wiles with which I mated 244 The gods with mortal maids and subjugated 2
45 Them all. However, no more shall my word 246 Have force among the gods, since I’ve incurred 24
7 Much madness on myself, dire, full of dread. 248 My mind has gone astray! I’ve shared a bed 249 With a mortal! Underneath my girdle lie 250 A child! As soon as he has cast his eye 251 Upon the sun, the mountain Nymphs whose breast 252 Are deep, who dwell on those great sacred crests, 253 Shall rear him. They’re not of mortality 254 Nor immortality; extendedly 255 They live, eat heavenly food and lightly tread 256 The dance among the deathless ones and bed 25
7 With Hermes and Sileni, hid away 258 In pleasant caves, and on the very day 259 That they are born, up from the fruitful earth 260 Pines and high oaks also display their birth, 2
61 Trees so luxuriant, so very fair, 262 Called the gods’ sancta, high up in the air. 263 No mortal chops them down. When the Fates mark 2
64 Them out for death, they wither there, their bark 265 Shrivelling too, their twigs fall down. As one, 266 Both Nymph and tree leave the light of the sun. 26
7 They’ll rear my son. And at his puberty 2
68 The goddesses will show you him. Let me 269 Tell you what I propose – when he is near 2
70 His fifth year on this earth, I’ll bring him here 2
71 That you may gaze upon him and enjoy 2
72 The sight, for he will be a godlike boy. 2
73 Bring him to windy Ilium. If you 2
74 Are queried by some mortal as to who 2
75 Gave birth to him, then say, as I propose, 2
76 It was a flower-like Nymph, one Nymph of those 2
7
7 Who dwell upon that forest-covered crag. 2
78 Should you tell all, though, and foolishly brag 2
79 That you have lain with rich-crowned Aphrodite, 280 Then with a smoky bolt will Zeus Almighty 281 Strike you. That’s all. Take heed. Do not name me. 282 Respect the anger of the gods.” Then she 283 Soared up to windy heaven. Queen, farewell. 2
84 Your tale is told. I have one more to tell. ' None |

59 The awe of majesty once unconquered, unvanquished, irresistible in war, that penetrated the ears and heart of the people, is now cast off. But there is still fear. And prosperity—this, 60 among mortals, is a god and more than a god. But the balance of Justice keeps watch: swiftly it descends on those in the light; sometimes pain waits for those who linger on the frontier of twilight; 65 and others are claimed by strengthless night. Chorus
129 ummon to me the spirits beneath the earth to hear my prayers, spirits that watch over my father’s house, and Earth herself, who gives birth to all things, and having nurtured them receives their increase in turn. And meanwhile, as I pour these lustral offerings to the dead, '130 I invoke my father: 140 I utter these prayers on our behalf, but I ask that your avenger appear to our foes, father, and that your killers may be killed in just retribution. 145 Such are my prayers, and over them I pour out these libations. 150 It is right for you to crown them with lamentations, raising your voices in a chant for the dead. Chorus 152 Pour forth your tears, splashing as they fall for our fallen lord, to accompany this protection against evil, this charm for the good 155 against the loathsome pollution. Hear me, oh hear me, my honored lord, out of the darkness of your spirit. Woe, woe, woe! Oh for 160 a man mighty with the spear to deliver our house, an Ares, brandishing in the fight the springing Scythian bow and wielding his hilted sword in close combat. As they conclude, Electra discovers the lock of Orestes’ hair Electra
306 You mighty Fates, through the power of Zeus grant fulfilment in the way to which Justice now turns. 311 Justice cries out as she exacts the debt, Orestes 315 O father, unhappy father, by what word or deed of mine can I succeed in sailing from far away to you, where your resting-place holds you, a light to oppose your darkness? 320 Yet a lament in honor of the Atreidae who once possessed our house is none the less a joyous service. Chorus 323 My child, the fire’s ravening jaw does not overwhelm the wits of the dead man, 325 but afterwards he reveals what stirs him. The murdered man has his dirge; the guilty man is revealed. Justified lament for fathers and for parents, 330 when raised loud and strong, makes its search everywhere. Electra 332 Hear then, O father, as in turn we mourn with plentiful tears. Look, your two children mourn you 335 in a dirge over your tomb. As suppliants and exiles as well they have sought a haven at your sepulchre. What of these things is good, what free of evil? Is it not hopeless to wrestle against doom? Chorus 340 Yet heaven, if it pleases, may still turn our utterance to more joyfully sounding strains. In place of dirges over a tomb, a song of triumph within the royal halls will welcome back a reunited friend. νεοκρᾶτα, newly-mixed. As friendship, when begun, was pledged by a loving-cup, so Orestes, after his long absence, is to be welcomed as a new friend. Orestes 345 Ah, my father, if only beneath 350 and in their maturity you would have made their lives admired by men. And in a land beyond the sea you would have found a tomb heaped high with earth, no heavy burden for your house to bear— Chorus 354 —Welcomed there below by your comrades 355 who nobly fell, a ruler of august majesty, distinguished even beneath the earth, and minister of the mightiest, the deities who rule in the nether world.360 For in your life you were a king of those who have the power to assign the portion of death, Electra 363 No, not even beneath the walls of 365 would I wish you to have fallen and to be entombed beside Scamander’s waters among the rest of the host slain by the spear. I wish rather that his murderers had been killed by their own loved ones, just as they killed you, 370 so that someone in a distant land who knew nothing of these present troubles should learn of their fatal doom. Chorus 372 In this, my child, your wish is better than gold. It surpasses great good fortune, even that of the supremely blesssed;375 But now the lash of this double scourge Agam. 647 ) because the participants in the scene are the two children (l. 334) and the Chorus. comes home: our cause already has its champions beneath the earth, while the hands of our loathsome opponents, though they have the mastery, are unholy. The children have won the day. Orestes 380 This has pierced the earth and reached your ear385 And yet it will be accomplished for our father’s sake. Chorus 386 May it be mine to raise a hearty shout in triumph over the man when he is stabbed and over the woman as she perishes! Why should I try to keep hidden what nevertheless hovers before my soul? 390 Full against the prow of my heart wrath blows sharply in rancorous hate. Electra 394 And when will mighty Zeus bring down his hand on them 395 and split their heads open? Let it be a pledge to the land! After injustice I demand justice as my right. Hear, O Earth, and you honored powers below! Chorus 400 And it is the eternal rule that drops of blood spilled on the ground demand yet more blood. Murder cries out on the Fury, which from those killed before brings one ruin in the wake of another. Orestes 405 Alas, you sovereign powers of the world below, behold, you potent Curses of the slain, behold the remts of the line of Atreus in their helpless plight, cast out from house and home in dishonor. Which way can we turn, O Zeus? Chorus 410 But again my heart throbs as I hear this pitiful lament. At once I am devoid of hope and my viscera are darkened at the words I hear. 415 But when hope once again lifts and strengthens me, it puts away my distress and dawns brightly on me. Electra 418 To what could we more fittingly appeal than to those very miseries we have endured from the woman herself who bore us? 420 She may fawn upon us, but they are past all soothing. For like a fierce-hearted wolf the temper we have acquired from our mother is implacable. Chorus 423 On my breast I beat Aria was a district of Persia . For Eranians (Old-Persian ariya ) the Greeks used Ἄριοι ; at least Herodotus says this was an ancient name of the Medes. dirge in just the same fashion as a Cissian Cissia formed part of Susiana . wailing woman. 425 With clenched fists, raining blows thick and fast, my outstretched hands could be seen descending from above, from far above, now on this side, now on that, till my battered and wretched head resounded with the strokes. Electra 429 Away with you, cruel 430 and utterly brazen mother! You dared to give your husband a most cruel burial: unmourned, without lamentation, a king unattended by his people. Orestes 434 Ah me, your words spell utter dishonor. 435 Yet with the help of the gods, and with the help of my own hands, will she not atone for the dishonor she did my father? Let me only take her life, then let me die! Chorus 439 Yes, and I would have you know he was brutally mangled.440 And even as she buried him in this way, she acted with intent to make the manner of his death a burden on your life past all power to bear. You hear the story of the ignominious outrage done to your father. Electra 445 My father was murdered just as you say. But all the while I was kept sequestered, despised, accounted a worthless thing. Kennelled in my room as if I were a vicious cur, I gave free vent to my streaming tears, which came more readily than laughter, as in my concealment I poured out my lament in plentiful weeping. 450 Hear my tale and inscribe it on your heart. Chorus 451 Yes, let it sink deep into your ears, but keep inside a quiet steadfastness of soul. So far things are so. But you yourself be eager to resolve what is to follow. 455 You must enter the contest with inflexible wrath. Orestes 456 Father, I call on you; side with your loved ones! Electra 457 And I in tears join my voice to his. Chorus 458 And let all our company blend our voices to echo the prayer. Hear! Come to the light! 460 Side with us against the foe! Orestes 461 Ares will encounter Ares; Right will encounter Right. Electra 462 O you gods, judge rightly the plea of right! Chorus 463 A shudder steals over me as I hear these prayers. Doom has long been waiting, 465 but it will come in answer to those who pray. Chorus 466 Ah, inbred trouble and bloody stroke of ruin striking a discord! Ah, lamentable and grievous sorrows! 470 Ah, the unstaunched pain! Chorus 471 Our house has a cure to heal these woes, a cure not from outside, from the hands of others, but from itself, by fierce, bloody strife. 475 This hymn is for the gods beneath the earth. Chorus
523 I know, my child, for I was there. It was because she was shaken by dreams and wandering terrors of the night 525 that she sent these offerings, godless woman that she is. Orestes 526 And have you learned the nature of the dream so as to tell it properly? Chorus 527 She dreamed she gave birth to a serpent: that is her own account. Orestes 528 And where does the tale end, and what is its consummation? Chorus 529 She laid it to rest as if it were a child, in swaddling clothes. Orestes 530 What food did it crave, the newborn viper? Chorus 531 In her dream she offered it her own breast. Orestes 532 Surely her nipple was not unwounded by the loathsome beast? Chorus 533 No: it drew in clotted blood with the milk. Orestes 534 Truly it is not without meaning: the vision signifies a man! Chorus

1.26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.

8.14 Then He brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD’S house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat the women weeping for Tammuz.

36.26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.

1 I, the son of Zeus, have come to this land of the Thebans—Dionysus, whom once Semele, Kadmos’ daughter, bore, delivered by a lightning-bearing flame. And having taken a mortal form instead of a god’s,4 I, the son of Zeus, have come to this land of the Thebans—Dionysus, whom once Semele, Kadmos’ daughter, bore, delivered by a lightning-bearing flame. And having taken a mortal form instead of a god’s,
6 I am here at the fountains of Dirke and the water of Ismenus. And I see the tomb of my thunder-stricken mother here near the palace, and the remts of her house, smouldering with the still living flame of Zeus’ fire, the everlasting insult of Hera against my mother.
10 I praise Kadmos, who has made this place hallowed, the shrine of his daughter; and I have covered it all around with the cluster-bearing leaf of the vine.I have left the wealthy lands of the Lydians and Phrygians, the sun-parched plains of the Persians,
15 and the Bactrian walls, and have passed over the wintry land of the Medes, and blessed Arabia , and all of Asia which lies along the coast of the salt sea with its beautifully-towered cities full of Hellenes and barbarians mingled together; 20 and I have come to this Hellene city first, having already set those other lands to dance and established my mysteries there, so that I might be a deity manifest among men. In this land of Hellas , I have first excited Thebes to my cry, fitting a fawn-skin to my body and 25 taking a thyrsos in my hand, a weapon of ivy. For my mother’s sisters, the ones who least should, claimed that I, Dionysus, was not the child of Zeus, but that Semele had conceived a child from a mortal father and then ascribed the sin of her bed to Zeus, 30 a trick of Kadmos’, for which they boasted that Zeus killed her, because she had told a false tale about her marriage. Therefore I have goaded them from the house in frenzy, and they dwell in the mountains, out of their wits; and I have compelled them to wear the outfit of my mysteries. 35 And all the female offspring of Thebes , as many as are women, I have driven maddened from the house, and they, mingled with the daughters of Kadmos, sit on roofless rocks beneath green pines. For this city must learn, even if it is unwilling,
40 that it is not initiated into my Bacchic rites, and that I plead the case of my mother, Semele, in appearing manifest to mortals as a divinity whom she bore to Zeus. Now Kadmos has given his honor and power to Pentheus, his daughter’s son,
59 But, you women who have left Tmolus, the bulwark of Lydia , my sacred band, whom I have brought from among the barbarians as assistants and companions to me, take your drums, native instruments of the city of the Phrygians, the invention of mother Rhea and myself,
70 peaking propitious things. For I will celebrate Dionysus with hymns according to eternal custom. Choru
73 Blessed is he who, being fortunate and knowing the rites of the gods, keeps his life pure and 75 has his soul initiated into the Bacchic revels, dancing in inspired frenzy over the mountains with holy purifications, and who, revering the mysteries of great mother Kybele, 80 brandishing the thyrsos, garlanded with ivy, serves Dionysus.Go, Bacchae, go, Bacchae, escorting the god Bromius, child of a god, 85 from the Phrygian mountains to the broad streets of Hellas—Bromius, Choru 88 Whom once, in the compulsion of birth pains, 90 the thunder of Zeus flying upon her, his mother cast from her womb, leaving life by the stroke of a thunderbolt. Immediately Zeus, Kronos’ son, 95 received him in a chamber fit for birth, and having covered him in his thigh shut him up with golden clasps, hidden from Hera.And he brought forth, when the Fate
100 had perfected him, the bull-horned god, and he crowned him with crowns of snakes, for which reason Maenads cloak their wild prey over their locks. Choru
105 O Thebes , nurse of Semele, crown yourself with ivy, flourish, flourish with the verdant yew bearing sweet fruit, and crown yourself in honor of Bacchus with branches of oak

10 or pine. Adorn your garments of spotted fawn-skin with fleeces of white sheep, and sport in holy games with insolent thyrsoi The thyrsos is a staff that is crowned with ivy and that is sacred to Dionysus and an emblem of his worship. . At once all the earth will dance—
120 O secret chamber of the Kouretes and you holy Cretan caves, parents to Zeus, where the Korybantes with triple helmet invented for me in their caves this circle,
125 covered with stretched hide; and in their excited revelry they mingled it with the sweet-voiced breath of Phrygian pipes and handed it over to mother Rhea, resounding with the sweet songs of the Bacchae;
130 nearby, raving Satyrs were fulfilling the rites of the mother goddess, and they joined it to the dances of the biennial festivals, in which Dionysus rejoices. Choru
135 He is sweet in the mountains cf. Dodds, ad loc. , whenever after the running dance he falls on the ground, wearing the sacred garment of fawn skin, hunting the blood of the slain goat, a raw-eaten delight, rushing to the

233 Autonoe, the mother of Actaeon. And having bound them in iron fetters, I will soon stop them from this ill-working revelry. And they say that some stranger has come, a sorcerer, a conjuror from the Lydian land, 235 fragrant in hair with golden curls, having in his eyes the wine-dark graces of Aphrodite. He is with the young girls day and night, alluring them with joyful mysteries. If I catch him within this house,
272 A man powerful in his boldness, one capable of speaking well, becomes a bad citizen in his lack of sense. This new god, whom you ridicule, I am unable to express how great he will be throughout Hellas . For two things, young man, 275 are first among men: the goddess Demeter—she is the earth, but call her whatever name you wish; she nourishes mortals with dry food; but he who came afterwards, the offspring of Semele, discovered a match to it, the liquid drink of the grape, and introduced it 280 to mortals. It releases wretched mortals from grief, whenever they are filled with the stream of the vine, and gives them sleep, a means of forgetting their daily troubles, nor is there another cure for hardships. He who is a god is poured out in offerings to the gods, 285 o that by his means men may have good things. And do you laugh at him, because he was sewn up in Zeus’ thigh? I will teach you that this is well: when Zeus snatched him out of the lighting-flame, and led the child as a god to Olympus , 290 Hera wished to banish him from the sky, but Zeus, as a god, had a counter-contrivance. Having broken a part of the air which surrounds the earth, he gave this to Hera as a pledge protecting the real A line of text has apparently been lost here. Dionysus from her hostility. But in time, 295 mortals say that he was nourished in the thigh of Zeus, changing the word, because a god he had served as a hostage for the goddess Hera, and composing the story. The account given in lines 292f. of the development of this legend is based on the similarity between the Greek words for hostage ( ὅμηρος ) and thigh ( μηρός ). But this god is a prophet—for Bacchic revelry and madness have in them much prophetic skill. 7

4 and the sight of this was terrible to behold, lord. For their pointed spears drew no blood, but the women, hurling the thyrsoi from their hands, kept wounding them and turned them to flight—women did this to men, not without the help of some god.

339 O Zeus, in vain, it seems, did I get you to share my bride with me; 340 in vain used we to call you partner in my son. After all you are less our friend than you pretended. Great god as you are, I, a mortal, surpass you in true worth. For I did not betray the children of Heracles; but you by stealth found your way to my bed, 345 taking another’s wife without leave given, while to save your own friends you have no skill. Either you are a god of little sense, or else naturally unjust. Exit Amphitryon. Choru

Aegeu 667 From Phoebus’ ancient oracle. Medea 668 What took thee on thy travels to the prophetic centre of the earth? Aegeu 669 The wish to ask how I might raise up seed unto myself. Medea 670 Pray tell me, hast thou till now dragged on a childless life? Aegeu 671 I have no child owing to the visitation of some god. Medea 672 Hast thou a wife, or hast thou never known the married state? Aegeu 673 I have a wife joined to me in wedlock’s bond. Medea 674 What said Phoebus to thee as to children? Aegeu 675 Words too subtle for man to comprehend. Medea 676 Surely I may learn the god’s answer? Aegeu 677 Most assuredly, for it is just thy subtle wit it needs. Medea 678 What said the god? speak, if I may hear it. Aegeu 679 He bade me not loose the wineskin’s pendent neck. i.e., enjoined strict chastity. Medea 680 Till when? what must thou do first, what country visit? Aegeu 681 Till I to my native home return. Medea 682 What object hast thou in sailing to this land? Aegeu 683 O’er Troezen’s realm is Pittheus king. Medea 684 Pelops’ son, a man devout they say. Aegeu 685 To him I fain would impart the oracle of the god. Medea 686 The man is shrewd and versed in such-like lore. Aegeu 687 Aye, and to me the dearest of all my warrior friends. Medea 688 Good luck to thee! success to all thy wishes! Aegeu 689 But why that downcast eye, that wasted cheek? Medea 690 O Aegeus, my husband has proved a monster of iniquity. Aegeu 691 What meanest thou? explain to me clearly the cause of thy despondency. Medea 692 Jason is wronging me though I have given him no cause. Aegeu 693 What hath he done? tell me more clearly. Medea 694 He is taking another wife to succeed me as mistress of his house. Aegeu 695 Can he have brought himself to such a dastard deed? Medea 696 Be assured thereof; I, whom he loved of yore, am in dishonour now. Aegeu 697 Hath he found a new love? or does he loathe thy bed? Medea 698 Much in love is he! A traitor to his friend is he become. Aegeu 699 Enough! if he is a villain as thou sayest. Medea 700 The alliance he is so much enamoured of is with a princess. Aegeu 701 Who gives his daughter to him? go on, I pray. Medea 702 Creon, who is lord of this land of Corinth. Aegeu 703 Lady, I can well pardon thy grief. Medea 704 I am undone, and more than that, am banished from the land. Aegeu 705 By whom? fresh woe this word of thine unfolds. Medea 706 Creon drives me forth in exile from Corinth. Aegeu 707 Doth Jason allow it? This too I blame him for. Medea 708 Not in words, but he will not stand out against it. Ο, I implore thee by this beard 710 and by thy knees, in suppliant posture, pity, O pity my sorrows; do not see me cast forth forlorn, but receive me in thy country, to a seat within thy halls. So may thy wish by heaven’s grace be crowned with a full harvest 715 of offspring, and may thy life close in happiness! Thou knowest not the rare good luck thou findest here, for I will make thy childlessness to cease and cause thee to beget fair issue; so potent are the spells I know. Aegeu 719 Lady, on many grounds I am most fain to grant thee this thy boon, 720 first for the gods’ sake, next for the children whom thou dost promise I shall beget; for in respect of this I am completely lost. The Schol. gives two interpretations of φροῦδος , (1) I am ruined as far as begetting children goes. (2) I am entirely devoted to doing so. Neither is satisfactory owing to want of parallel passages. ’Tis thus with me; if e’er thou reach my land, I will attempt to champion thee as I am bound to do. 725 Only one warning I do give thee first, lady; I will not from this land bear thee away, yet if of thyself thou reach my halls, there shalt thou bide in safety and I will never yield thee up to any man. But from this land escape without my aid, 730 for I have no wish to incur the blame of my allies as well. i.e., as well as Jason. Medea 731 It shall be even so; but wouldst thou pledge thy word to this, I should in all be well content with thee. Aegeu 733 Surely thou dost trust me? or is there aught that troubles thee? Medea 734 Thee I trust; but Pelias’ house and Creon are my foes. 735 Wherefore, if thou art bound by an oath, thou wilt not give To avoid the very doubtful form μεθεῖς = μεθείης some read μεθεῖ’ ἂν . me up to them when they come to drag me from the land, but, having entered into a compact and sworn Reading ἐνώμοτος . Hermann changes καὶ into μὴ . A simpler change, supported by a Schol., and one MS., would be to read ἀνωμοτος = whereas if thou only make a verbal compact, without oath, thou mightest be persuaded, etc. The whole passage is, as it stands, probably corrupt; numerous emendations have been proposed. If the above emendation be adopted, it will be necessary to alter οὐκ ἂν πίθοιο for which Munro proposed ὀκνῶν πίθοιο = and fearing their demands of surrender thou mightest yield. Wecklein, τάχ’ ἂν τίθοι σε (adopted by Nauck), is tempting. by heaven as well, thou wilt become my friend and disregard their overtures. Weak is any aid of mine, 740 whilst they have wealth and a princely house. Aegeu 741 Lady, thy words show much foresight, so if this is thy will, I do not refuse. For I shall feel secure and safe if I have some pretext to offer to thy foes, 745 and thy case too the firmer stands. Now name thy gods. Medea 746 Swear by the plain of Earth, by Helios my father’s sire, and, in one comprehensive oath, by all the race of gods. Aegeu 748 What shall I swear to do, from what refrain? tell me that. Medea 749 Swear that thou wilt never of thyself expel me from thy land, 750 nor, whilst life is thine, permit any other, one of my foes maybe, to hale me thence if so he will. Aegeu 752 By earth I swear, by the sun-god’s holy beam and by all the host of heaven that I will stand fast to the terms, I hear thee make. Medea 754 ’Tis enough. If thou shouldst break this oath, what curse dost thou invoke upon thyself? Aegeu 755 Whate’er betides the impious. Medea 756 Go in peace; all is well, and I with what speed I may, will to thy city come, when I have wrought my purpose and obtained my wish. Choru
