apologetix – septuagint lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[verse 1]
in the store, when you go huntin’
for the manual from your father
and you’ll find at least a dozen
translations they have of god’s word
and they’re all in your own language
you may have to find your speed
just be thankful it’s in english
not in hebrew or in greek
[chorus 1]
yeah, it goes back to that septuagint
we’ll learn about it, now
it goes back to that septuagint
[verse 2]
when jews wrote the old+time bible
hebrew was fine for all of them
then their rulers said “you’re too tribal”
and they taught them greek instead
then it took a little whilе, but
that greek, lingo all men borrowed
over timе, jews spoke greek now, but
too many dropped the hebrew [?]
[chorus 2]
yeah, we know that we got septuagint
we’ll learn about it, now
it goes back to that septuagint
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
some jews were linguistic sages
and they brought forth 70 men
to transcribe the bible’s pages
into a playbook, greek for then
though that’s hard, they labored humbly
and in time then they were able
and their translation led one day
to the good book on your table
[chorus 3]
yeah, it goes back to that septuagint
we know versions now abound
it goes back to that septuagint
[instrumental outro]
