Jeremiah 2
1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
И бысть слово Господне ко мне глаголющее: иди и вопий во ушы Иерусалиму, рекий: сия глаголет Господь:
2 "Go, and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, 'Thus says the LORD, "I remember you, the devotion of your youth, the love of your weddings; how you went after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.
помянух милость юности твоея и любовь совершенства твоего, егда последовал еси в пустыни ненасеянней Святому Израилеву, глаголет Господь.
3 Israel was holiness to the LORD, the first fruits of his increase. All who devour him shall be held guilty. Evil shall come on them,"' says the LORD."
Свят Израиль Господеви, начаток плодов Его: вси поядающии его согрешат, злая приидут на них, рече Господь.
4 Hear the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
Услышите слово Господне, доме Иаковль и вся племена дому Израилева.
5 Thus says the LORD, "What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me, that they have gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
Сия глаголет Господь: кое обретоша отцы ваши во Мне погрешение, яко удалишася от Мене и ходиша вслед суетных и осуетишася,
6 Neither did they say, 'Where is the LORD who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought and of the shadow of death, through a land that none passed through, and where no man lived?'
и не рекоша: где есть Господь, изведый нас от земли Египетския, преведый нас по пустыни, по земли необитанней и непроходней, по земли безводней и неплодней, по земли, по нейже не ходил муж никогдаже и не обитал человек тамо?
7 I brought you into a plentiful land, to eat its fruit and its goodness; but when you entered, you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.
И введох вас в землю Кармил, да снесте плоды его и благая того: и внидосте, и осквернили есте землю Мою, и достояние Мое поставили есте в мерзость.
8 The cohanim did not say, 'Where is the LORD?' And those who handle the law did not know me. The rulers also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.
Священницы не рекоша: где есть Господь? И держащии закон не ведеша Мя, и пастырие нечествоваша на Мя, и пророцы пророчествоваша в Ваала и идолом последоваша.
9 "Therefore I will yet contend with you," says the LORD, "and I will contend with your children's children.
Сего ради еще судом претися имам с вами, рече Господь, и с сыны вашими препрюся.
10 For pass over to the islands of Kittim, and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently; and see if there has been such a thing.
Того ради приидите во островы Хеттим и видите, и в Кидар послите и разсмотрите прилежно и видите, аще сотворена быша таковая?
11 Has a nation changed its gods, which really are no gods? But my people have changed their glory for that which does not profit.
Аще премениша языцы боги своя, и тии не суть бози? Людие же Мои премениша славу свою на то, от негоже не упользуются.
12 "Be astonished, you heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid. Be very desolate," says the LORD.
Ужасеся небо о сем и вострепета попремногу зело, глаголет Господь.
13 "For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the spring of living waters, and cut them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Два бо зла сотвориша людие Мои: Мене оставиша источника воды живы, и ископаша себе кладенцы сокрушеныя, иже не возмогут воды содержати.
14 Is Israel a servant? Is he a native-born slave? Why has he become a prey?
Еда раб есть Израиль, или домочадец есть? Вскую бысть в пленение?
15 The young lions have roared at him, and yelled. They have made his land waste. His cities are burned up, without inhabitant.
На него рыкаша львове и издаша глас свой, иже поставиша землю его в пустыню, и грады его сожжени суть, еже не обитати в них.
16 The people of Memphis and Tahpanhes have also shaved the crown of your head.
И сынове Мемфиса и Тафны познаша тя и поругашася тебе.
17 "Haven't you brought this on yourself, in that you have forsaken the LORD your God, when he led you by the way?
Не сия ли сотвори тебе то, яко оставил еси Мене? Глаголет Господь Бог твой.
18 Now what have you to do in the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Shihor? Or what have you to do in the way to Assyria, to drink the waters of the River?
И ныне что тебе и пути Египетскому, еже пити воду Геонскую? И что тебе и пути Ассирийскому, да пиеши воду речную?
19 "Your own wickedness shall correct you, and your backsliding shall reprove you. Know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter that you have forsaken the LORD your God, and that my fear is not in you," says the LORD of hosts.
Накажет тя отступление твое и злоба твоя обличит тя и увеждь и виждь, яко зло и горько ти есть, еже оставити мя, глаголет Господь Бог твой: и не благоволих от тебе, глаголет Господь Бог твой.
20 "For of old time I have broken your yoke, and burst your bonds; and you said, 'I will not serve;' for on every high hill and under every green tree you bowed yourself, playing the prostitute.
Понеже от века сокрушил еси иго твое и растерзал еси узы твоя и рекл еси: не имам тебе служити, но пойду на всякий холм высокий и под всяким древом лиственным тамо разлиюся в блуде моем.
21 Yet I had planted you a noble vine, wholly a right seed. How then have you turned into the degenerate branches of a foreign vine to me?
Аз же насадих тя виноград плодоносен, весь истинен: како превратился еси в горесть, виноград чуждий?
22 For though you wash yourself with lye, and use much soap, yet your iniquity is marked before me," says the LORD.
Аще умыешися нитром и умножиши себе травы борифовы, порочен еси во беззакониих твоих предо Мною, рече Господь Бог.
23 "How can you say, 'I am not defiled. I have not gone after the Baals'? See your way in the valley. Know what you have done. You are a swift dromedary traversing her ways;
Како речеши: не осквернихся и вслед Ваала не ходих? Виждь пути твоя на месте многогробищнем и увеждь, что сотворил еси. В вечер глас его рыдаше,
24 a wild donkey used to the wilderness, that snuffs up the wind in her desire. When she is in heat, who can turn her away? All those who seek her will not weary themselves. In her month, they will find her.
пути своя разшири на воды пустынныя, в похотех души своея ветром ношашеся, предан бысть, кто обратит его? Вси ищущии его не утрудятся, во смирении его обрящут его.
25 "Withhold your foot from being unshod, and your throat from thirst. But you said, 'It is in vain. No, for I have loved strangers, and I will go after them.'
Отврати ногу твою от пути стропотна и гортань твой от жажди. И рече: возмужаюся, яко возлюби чуждих и вслед их хождаше.
26 As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their officials, and their cohanim, and their prophets;
Якоже стыд татю, егда ят будет, тако постыдятся сынове Израилевы, тии и царие их, и началницы их и священницы их и пророцы их.
27 who tell wood, 'You are my father;' and a stone, 'You have brought me out:' for they have turned their back to me, and not their face; but in the time of their trouble they will say, 'Arise, and save us.'
Древу рекоша: яко отец мой еси ты: и камени: ты мя родил еси: и обратиша ко Мне хребты, а не лица своя: и во время озлобления своего рекут: востани и избави нас.
28 "But where are your gods that you have made for yourselves? Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble. For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah. And according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem they were sacrificing to Baal.
И где суть бози твои, яже сотворил еси тебе? Да востанут и избавят тя во время озлобления твоего: по числу бо градов твоих быша бози твои, Иудо, и по числу путий Иерусалимских жряху Ваалу.
29 "Why will you contend with me? You all have transgressed against me," says the LORD.
Вскую глаголете ко Мне? Вси вы нечествовасте и вси вы беззаконновасте ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
30 "I have struck your children in vain. They received no correction. Your own sword has devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
Всуе поразих чада ваша, наказания не приясте, мечь пояде пророки вашя, аки лев погубляяй, и не убоястеся.
31 Generation, consider the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness to Israel? Or a land of thick darkness? Why do my people say, 'We have broken loose. We will come to you no more?'
Слышите слово Господне, тако глаголет Господь: еда пустыня бых Израилю, или земля неплодна? Вскую реша людие Мои: обладаеми не будем и потом не приидем к Тебе?
32 "Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me for days without number.
Еда забудет невеста красоту свою, и дева мониста персий своих? Людие же Мои забыша Мене дни безчисленны.
33 How well you prepare your way to seek love. Therefore you have taught even the wicked women your ways.
Что еще добро ухитриши на путех твоих, еже взыскати любве? Не тако: но и ты лукавновала еси, еже осквернити пути твоя,
34 Also the blood of the souls of the innocent poor is found in your skirts. You did not find them breaking in; but it is because of all these things.
и в руках твоих обретеся кровь душ (убогих) неповинных: не в ровех обретох их, но во всяцей дубраве.
35 "Yet you said, 'I am innocent. Surely his anger has turned away from me.' "Look, I will judge you, because you say, 'I have not sinned.'
И рекла еси: неповинна есмь, но да отвратится ярость Твоя от мене. Се, Аз суждуся с тобою, внегда рещи тебе: не согреших:
36 Why do you go about so much to change your way? You will be ashamed of Egypt also, as you were ashamed of Assyria.
понеже презрела еси зело, еже повторити пути твоя: и от Египта постыдишися, якоже постыдена еси от Ассура:
37 From there also you shall go forth, with your hands on your head; for the LORD has rejected those in whom you trust, and you shall not prosper with them.
яко и оттуду изыдеши, и руце твои на главе твоей: яко отрину Господь надеяние твое, и не благопоспешится тебе в нем.
