Esias 59
1 Has the hand of the Lord no power to save? or has he made his ear heavy, so that he should not hear?
Еда не может рука Господня спасти? Или отягчил есть слух Свой, еже не услышати?
2 Nay, your iniquities separate between you and God, and because of your sins has he turned away [his] face from you, so as not to have mercy [upon you].
Но греси ваши разлучают между вами и между Богом, и грех ради ваших отврати лице Свое от вас еже не помиловати.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with sins; your lips also have spoken iniquity, and your tongue meditates unrighteousness.
Руце бо ваши осквернене кровию, и персты ваши во гресех, устне же ваши возглаголаша беззаконие, и язык ваш неправде поучается.
4 None speaks justly, neither is there true judgment: they trust in vanities, and speak empty [words]; for they conceive trouble, and bring forth iniquity.
Никтоже глаголет правды, ниже есть суд истинен: уповают на суетная и глаголют тщетная, яко зачинают труд и раждают беззаконие.
5 They have hatched asps' eggs, and weave a spider's web: and he that is going to eat of their eggs, having crushed an addled egg, has found also in it a basilisk.
Яица аспидска разбиша и постав паучинный ткут, и хотяй от яиц их ясти, разбив запорток (его), обрете и в нем василиска.
6 Their web shall not become a garment, nor shall they at all clothe themselves with their works; for their works are works of iniquity.
Постав их не будет на ризу, и не одеждутся от дел своих: дела бо их дела беззакония.
7 And their feet run to wickedness, swift to shed blood; their thoughts also are thoughts of murder; destruction and misery are in their ways;
Нозе же их на зло текут, скори пролияти кровь, и мысли их мысли о убийствах: сокрушение и бедность во путех их,
8 and the way of peace they know not, neither is there judgment in their ways; for their paths by which they go are crooked, and they know not peace.
и пути мирнаго не познаша, и несть суда во путех их: стези во их развращены, по нихже ходят и не ведят мира.
9 Therefore has judgment departed from them, and righteousness shall not overtake them: while they waited for light, darkness came upon them; while they waited for brightness, they walked in perplexity.
Того ради отступи от них суд, и не постигнет их правда: ждущым им света, бысть им тма, ждуще зари во мраце ходиша.
10 They shall feel for the wall as blind [men], and shall feel [for it] as if they had no eyes: and they shall feel at noon-day as at midnight; they shall groan as dying men.
Осяжут яко слепии стену, яко суще без очес осязати будут, и падутся в полудни яко в полунощи, яко умирающе возстенут
11 They shall proceed together as a bear and as a dove: we have waited for judgment, and there is no salvation, it is gone far from us.
яко медведь, и яко голубь вкупе пойдут. Ждахом суда, и несть, спасение далече отступи от нас.
12 For our iniquity is great before you, and our sins have risen up against us: for our iniquities are in us, and we know our unrighteous deeds.
Много бо беззаконие наше пред Тобою, и греси наши противу сташа нам: беззакония бо наша в нас, и неправды нашя уразумехом:
13 We have sinned, and dealt falsely, and revolted from our God: we have spoken unrighteous words, and have been disobedient; we have conceived and uttered from our heart unrighteous words.
нечествовахом и солгахом и отступихом от последования Бога нашего: глаголахом неправду и не покорихомся, во утробе зачахом и поучихомся от сердца нашего словесем неправедным:
14 And we have turned judgment back, and righteousness has departed afar off: for truth is consumed in their ways, and they could not pass by a straight [path].
и оставихом созади суд, и правда далече отступи от нас: яко изнеможе во путех их истина, и правым (путем) не возмогоша прейти:
15 And truth has been taken away, and they have turned aside [their] mind from understanding. And the Lord saw it, and it pleased him not that there was no judgment.
и истина взяся, и преставиша ум свой еже смыслити. И виде Господь и негодова, яко не бяше суда:
16 And he looked, and there was no man, and he observed, and there was none to help: so he defended them with his arm, and established [them] with [his] mercy.
и виде, и не бяше мужа, и помысли, и не бяше избавляющаго: и мсти им мышцею Своею, и помилованием утверди.
17 And he put on righteousness as a breast-plate, and placed the helmet of salvation on his head; and he clothed himself with the garment of vengeance, and with his cloak,
И одеяся правдою яко щитом, и возложи шлем спасения на главу, и облечеся в ризу отмщения, и одеждею Своею:
18 as one about to render a recompence, [even] reproach to his adversaries.
яко воздаваяй воздаяние укоризну супостатом.
19 So shall they of the west fear the name of the Lord, and they [that come] from the rising of the sun his glorious name: for the wrath of the Lord shall come as a mighty river, it shall come with fury.
И убоятся, иже от запад, имене Господня, и иже от восток солнца, имене Его славнаго: приидет бо яко река насильная гнев от Господа, приидет со яростию.
20 And the deliverer shall come for Sion's sake, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
И приидет Сиона ради Избавляяй, и отвратит нечестие от Иакова.
21 And this shall be my covenant with them, said the Lord; My Spirit which is upon you, and the words which I have put in your mouth, shall never fail from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your seed, for the Lord has spoken it, henceforth and for ever.
И сей им иже от Мене завет, рече Господь: Дух Мой, иже есть в тебе, и глаголголы, яже Аз дах во уста твоя, не оскудеют от уст твоих и от уст семене твоего: рече бо Господь отныне и во век.
