< Micah 3 >

1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and all of you princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?
И речет: слышите убо сия, власти дому Иаковля и оставшии дому Израилева: не вам ли есть еже разумети суд?
2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
Ненавидящии добра, а ищущии зла, похищающии кожы их с них и плоти их от костей их:
3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
якоже объядоша плоти людий Моих, и кожы их от костей их одраша, и кости их столкоша и содробиша яко плоти в коноб и яко мяса в горнец:
4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
тако возопиют ко Господу, и не послушает их и отвратит лице Свое от них в то время, понеже слукавноваша в начинаниих своих на Ня.
5 Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people go astray, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that puts not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.
Сия глаголет Господь на пророки льстящыя людий Моих, угрызающыя зубы своими и проповедающыя мир на них, и не вдася во уста их, возставиша на них рать:
6 Therefore night shall be unto you, that all of you shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that all of you shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
сего ради нощь будет вам от видения, и тма будет вам от волхвования, и зайдет солнце на пророки, и померкнет на ня день:
7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.
и усрамятся видящии сония, и посмеяни будут волсви, и возглаголют на них вси сии, зане не будет послушаяй их.
8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
Аще аз не наполню силы Духом Господним и судом и силою, еже возвестити Иакову нечестия его и Израилеви грехи его.
9 Hear this, I pray you, all of you heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that detest judgment, and pervert all equity.
Слышите сия, старейшины дому Иаковля и оставшии дому Израилева, гнушающиися судом и вся правая развращающии,
10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
созидающии Сиона кровьми и Иерусалима неправдами:
11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
старейшины его на дарех суждаху, и жерцы его на мзде отвещаваху, и пророцы его на сребре волхвоваху, и на Господе почиваху, глаголюще: не Господь ли в нас есть? Не приидут на ны злая.
12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
Сего ради вас дела Сион якоже нива изорется, и Иерусалим яко овощное хранилище будет, и гора дому якоже луг дубравный.
