Daniel 2
1 In the second year of [his] reign Nabuchodonosor dreamt a dream, and his spirit was amazed, and his sleep departed from him.
В лето второе царства Навуходоносорова, соние виде Навуходоносор, и ужасеся дух его, и сон его отступи от него:
2 And the king gave orders to call the enchanters, and the magicians, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they came and stood before the king.
и рече царь призвати обаятелей и волхвов, и чародеев и Халдеев, еже возвестити царю сон его. И приидоша и сташа пред царем.
3 And the king said to them, I have dreamt, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
И рече им царь: видех сон, и ужасеся дух мой, еже уразумети сон.
4 And the Chaldeans spoke to the king in the Syrian language, [saying], O king, live for ever: do you tell the dream to your servants, and we will declare the interpretation.
И глаголаше Халдее сирски цареви: царю, во веки живи: ты повеждь сон рабом твоим, и сказание его возвестим ти.
5 The king answered the Chaldeans, The thing has departed from me: if you do not make known to me the dream and the interpretation, you shall be destroyed, and your houses shall be spoiled.
Отвеща же царь Халдеом и рече: слово отступило есть от мене: аще убо не возвестите ми сна и сказания его, в пагубу будете, и домове ваши разграбятся:
6 But if you make known to me the dream, and the interpretation thereof, you shall receive of me gifts and presents and much honour: only tell me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
аще же сон и сказание его возвестите мне, даяния и дары и честь многу приимете от мене: точию сон и сказание его возвестите мне.
7 They answered the second time, and said, Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will declare the interpretation.
И отвещаша второе и реша: царь да повесть сон рабом своим, и сказание его возвестим ему.
8 And the king answered and said, I verily know that you are trying to gain time, because you see that the thing has gone from me.
И отвеща царь и рече: поистинне вем аз, яко время вы (точию) искупуете, понеже видите, яко отступило есть слово от мене:
9 If then you do not tell me the dream, I know that you have concerted to utter before me a false and corrupt tale, until the time shall have past: tell me my dream, and I shall know that you will also declare to me the interpretation thereof.
аще убо сна не возвестите мне, вем, яко слово ложно и растленно совещастеся рещи предо мною, дондеже время минет: сон мой поведите мне, и увем, яко и сказание его возвестите мне.
10 The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is no man upon the earth, who shall be able to make known the king's matter: forasmuch as no great king or ruler asks such a question of an enchanter, magician, or Chaldean.
Отвещаша же паки Халдее пред царем и реша: несть человека на земли, иже слово царево возможет возвестити, яко всяк царь великий и князь не вопрошает ссиеваго словесе обаятеля, волхва и Халдеа:
11 For the question which the king asks is difficult, and there is no one else who shall answer it before the king, but the gods, whose dwelling is not with any flesh.
понеже слово, егоже вопрошает царь, тяжко, и несть другаго, иже возвестит е пред царем, но точию бози, ихже несть житие со всякою плотию.
12 Then the king in rage and anger commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
Тогда царь в ярости и во гневе мнозе рече погубити вся мудрыя Ваввилонския.
13 So the decree went forth, and they began to kill the wise men; and they sought Daniel and his fellows to kill [them].
И изыде повеление, и мудрии убивахуся: и взыскаша Даниила и другов его убити я.
14 Then Daniel answered [with] counsel and prudence to Arioch the captain of the royal guard, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon; [saying],
Тогда Даниил отвеща совет и разум Ариоху архимагиру царску, иже изыде убити мудрых Вавилонских,
15 Chief magistrate of the king, therefore has the preemptory command proceeded from the king? So Arioch made known the matter to Daniel.
и вопрошаше и глаголя: княже царев, о чесом изыде изречение безстудное от лица царева? Возвести же Ариох слово Даниилу.
16 And Daniel entreated the king to give him time, and that he might [thus] declare to the king the interpretation of it.
Даниил же вниде и моли царя, яко да время даст ему, и сказание его возвестит царю.
17 So Daniel went into his house, and made known the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias, his friends.
И вниде Даниил в дом свой и возвести слово Анании и Азарии и Мисаилу, другом своим:
18 And they sought mercies from the God of heaven concerning this mystery; that Daniel and his friends might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
и щедрот прошаху у Бога небеснаго отайне сей, яко да не погибнут Даниил и друзие его со прочиими мудрыми Вавилонскими.
19 Then the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night; and Daniel blessed the God of heaven, and said,
Тогда Даниилу во сне нощию тайна открыся: и благослови Даниил Бога небеснаго
20 May the name of God be blessed from everlasting and to everlasting: for wisdom and understanding are his.
и рече: буди имя Господа Бога благословено от века и до века, яко премудрость и смысл и крепость Его есть,
21 And he changes times and seasons: he appoints kings, and removes [them], giving wisdom to the wise, and prudence to them that have understanding:
и Той пременяет времена и лета, поставляет цари и преставляет, даяй премудрость мудрым и разум ведущым смышление:
22 he reveals deep and secret [matters]; knowing what is in darkness, and the light is with him.
Той открывает глубокая и сокровенная, сведый сущая во тме и свет с Ним есть:
23 I give thanks to you, and praise [you], O God of my fathers, for you has given me wisdom and power, and has made known to me the things which we asked of you; and you has made known to me the king's vision.
Тебе, Боже отцев моих, исповедаюся и хвалю, яко премудрость и силу дал ми еси и возвестил ми еси, яже просихом у Тебе, и видение царево возвестил ми еси.
24 And Daniel came to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and said to him; Destroy not the wise men of Babylon, but bring me in before the king, and I will declare the interpretation to the king.
И прииде Даниил ко Ариоху егоже пристави царь погубити мудрыя Вавилонския, и рече ему: мудрых Вавилонских не погубляй, но введи мя пред царя, и сказание сна возвешу ему.
25 Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel before the king, and said to him, I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judea, who will declare the interpretation to the king.
Тогда Ариох с потщанием введе Даниила пред царя и рече ему: обретох мужа от пленник жидовских, иже сказание царю возвестит.
26 And the king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltasar, Canst you declare to me the dream which I saw, and the interpretation thereof?
И отвеща царь и рече Даниилу, емуже имя Валтасар: можеши ли ми возвестити сон, егоже видех, и сказание его?
27 And Daniel answered before the king, and said, The mystery which the king asks [the explanation of] is not [in the power] of the wise men, magicians, enchanters, [or] soothsayers to declare to the king.
И отвеща Даниил пред царем и рече: тайны, еяже царь вопрошает, несть мудрых, волхвов, ниже обаятелей газаринов (сила) возвестити царю:
28 But there is a God in heaven revealing mysteries, and he has made known to king Nabuchodonosor what things must come to pass in the last days. Your dream, and the visions of your head upon your bed, are as follows,
но есть Бог на небеси открываяй тайны и возвести царю Навуходоносору, имже подобает быти в последния дни. Сон твой и видение главы твоея на ложи твоем сие есть, царю:
29 O king: your thoughts upon your bed arose [as to] what must come to pass hereafter: and he that reveals mysteries has made known to you what must come to pass.
помышления твоя на ложи твоем взыдоша, чесому подобает быти по сих, и Открываяй тайны яви тебе, имже подобает быти:
30 Moreover, this mystery has not been revealed to me by reason of wisdom which is in me beyond all [others] living, but for the sake of making known the interpretation to the king, that you might know the thoughts of your heart.
и мне не премудростию сущею во мне паче всех живущих тайна сия открыся, но ради того, яко да возвещу сказание царю, да уразумееши размышления сердца твоего.
31 You, O king, saw, and behold an image: that image was great, and the appearance of it excellent, standing before your face; and the form of it was terrible.
Ты, царю видел еси: и се, тело едино, велие тело оно, и обличие его высоко, стоящо пред лицем твоим, и образ его страшен:
32 [It was] an image, the head of which was of fine gold, its hands and breast and arms of silver, [its] belly and thighs of brass,
тело, егоже глава от злата чиста, руце и перси и мышцы его сребряны, чрево и стегна медяна,
33 its legs of iron, its feet, part of iron and part of earthenware.
голени железны, нозе, часть убо некая железна и часть некая скудельна:
34 You saw until a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands, and it struck the image upon its feet of iron and earthenware, and utterly reduced them to powder.
видел еси, дондеже отторжеся камень от горы без рук, и удари тело в нозе железны и скудельны, и истни их до конца:
35 Then once for all the earthenware, the iron, the brass, the silver, the gold, were ground to powder, and became as chaff from the summer threshing floor; and the violence of the wind carried them away, and no place was found for them: and the stone which had struck the image became a great mountain, and filled all the earth.
тогда сотрошася вкупе скудель, железо, медь, сребро и злато, и бысть яко прах от гумна летня: и взят я премногий ветр, и место не обретеся им: камень же поразивый тело бысть гора велика и наполни всю землю.
36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
Сей есть сон, а сказание его речем пред царем.
37 You, O king, are a king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given a powerful and strong and honourable kingdom,
Ты, царю, царь царей, емуже Бог небесный царство даде крепко и державно и честно:
38 in every place where the children of men dwell: and he has given into your hand the wild beasts of the field, and the birds of the sky and the fish of the sea, and he has made you lord of all.
во всяцем месте, идеже живут сынове человечи и зверие польстии, и птицы небесныя и рыбы морския дал есть в руку твою и поставил тя властелина всем: ты еси глава златая.
39 You are the head of gold. And after you shall arise another kingdom inferior to you, an a third kingdom which is the brass, which shall have dominion over all the earth;
И последи тебе востанет царство другое меншее тебе, еже есть сребро, царство же третие, еже есть медь, еже соодолеет всей земли,
40 and a fourth kingdom, which shall be strong as iron: as iron beats to powder and subdues all things, so shall it beat to powder and subdue.
и царство четвертое, еже будет крепко аки железо: якоже железо стончевает и умягчает вся, такожде и то истончит и истнит вся.
41 And whereas you saw the feet and the toes, part of earthenware and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet there shall be in it of the strength of iron, as you saw the iron mixed with earthenware.
А яко видел еси нозе и персты, часть убо некую железну, часть же некую глиняну, царство разделено будет, и от корене железна будет в нем, якоже видел еси железо смешено с глиною:
42 And [whereas] the toes of the feet were part of iron and part of earthenware, part of the kingdom shall be strong, and [part] of it shall be broken.
и персты ножнии, часть убо некая железна, часть же некая глиняна, часть некая царства будет крепка и от него будет сокрушена.
43 Whereas you saw the iron mixed with earthenware, they shall be mingled with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave together, as the iron does not mix itself with earthenware.
Яко видел еси железо смешено со глиною, смешены будут во племени человечи, и не будут прилепляющеся сей к сему, якоже железо не смешается со глиною.
44 And in the days of those kings the God of heaven shall set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed: and his kingdom shall not be left to another people, [but] it shall beat to pieces and grind to powder all [other] kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
И во днех царей тех возставит Бог небесный царство, еже во веки не разсыплется, и царство Его людем инем не останется, истнит и развеет вся царства, тое же станет во веки,
45 Whereas you saw that a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands, and it beat to pieces the earthenware, the iron, the brass, the silver, the gold; the great God has made known to the king what must happen hereafter: and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof sure.
якоже видел еси, яко отсечеся от горы камень без рук и истни глину, железо, медь, сребро, злато. Бог великий возвести царю, имже подобает быти по сих: и истинен сон, и верно сказание его.
46 Then king Nabuchodonosor fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and gave orders to offer to him gifts and incense.
Тогда царь Навуходоносор паде на лице и поклонися Даниилу, и рече дары и благовония возлияти ему.
47 And the king answered and said to Daniel, Of a truth your God is a God of gods, and Lord of kings, who reveals mysteries; for you has been able to reveal this mystery.
И отвещав царь рече Даниилу: поистинне Бог ваш Той есть Бог богов и Господь господей и Царь царей, открываяй тайны, понеже возмогл еси открыти тайну сию.
48 And the king promoted Daniel, and gave him great and abundant gifts, and set him over the whole province of Babylon, and [made him] chief satrap over all the wise men of Babylon.
И возвеличи царь Даниила, и дары велики и многи даде ему, и постави его над всею страною Вавилонскою и князя воеводам, над всеми мудрыми Вавилонскими.
49 And Daniel asked of the king, and he appointed Sedrach, Misach, and Abdenago, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the king's palace.
И Даниил проси у царя и пристави над делы страны Вавилонския Седраха, Мисаха и Авденаго. Даниил же бяше во дворе цареве.
