< Jeremiah 3 >
1 "They say, 'If a man puts away his wife, and she goes from him, and become another man's, will he return to her again?' Wouldn't that land be greatly polluted? But you have played the prostitute with many lovers; yet return again to me," says the LORD.
Аще отпустит муж жену свою, и отидет от него и будет мужу иному, еда возвращающися возвратится к нему паки? Еда непорочна будет и неосквернена жена та? Ты же соблудила еси с пастырьми многими, и возвращалася еси и ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
2 "Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see. Where have you not been lain with? You have sat for them by the ways, as an Arabian in the wilderness. You have polluted the land with your prostitution and with your wickedness.
Воздвигни очи твои на правоту и виждь, где не смесилася еси? На путех сидела еси аки врана особящаяся и осквернила еси землю в любодеяниих и в лукавствех твоих,
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and there has been no latter rain; yet you have a prostitute's forehead, you refused to be ashamed.
и имела еси пастырей многих в претыкание себе: лице жены блудницы бысть тебе, не хотела еси постыдетися ко всем.
4 Will you not from this time cry to me, 'My Father, you are the guide of my youth?'
Не аки ли домом Мене нарекла еси и Отцем и вождем девства твоего?
5 "'Will he retain his anger forever? Will he keep it to the end?' Look, you have spoken and have done evil things, and have had your way."
Еда пребудет во век, или сохранится в победу? Сия глаголала еси, и сотворила еси злая, и возмогла еси.
6 Moreover, the LORD said to me in the days of Josiah the king, "Have you seen that which backsliding Israel has done? She has gone up on every high mountain and under every green tree, and there has played the prostitute.
И рече Господь ко мне во дни Иосии царя: видел ли еси, яже сотвори ми дом Израилев? Поидоша на всяку гору высоку и под всяко древо листвяно и соблудиша тамо.
7 I said after she had done all these things, 'She will return to me;' but she did not return; and her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
И рекох по внегда прелюбодействовати ему во всех сих: ко Мне обратися. И виде преступление его преступница Иудеа сестра его.
8 She saw that for all the causes for which faithless Israel had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a bill of divorce, yet treacherous Judah, her sister, did not fear; but she also went and played the prostitute.
И видех, яко о всех (изобличен есть), в нихже ят бысть, в нихже любодействова дом Израилев: сего ради отпустих и и дах ему книгу распустную в руце его. Обаче не убояся преступница Иудеа (сестра его), но иде и соблудила есть и та:
9 And it came to pass, through her casual prostitution, that the land was polluted, and she committed adultery with stone and wood.
и бысть ни во что блуд ея, и оскверни землю, и соблудила есть с каменем и со древом.
10 Yet for all this her treacherous sister, Judah, has not returned to me with her whole heart, but only in pretense," says the LORD.
И во всех сих не обратися ко Мне преступница сестра ея Иудеа от всего сердца своего, но во лжи, рече Господь.
11 The LORD said to me, "Backsliding Israel has shown herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
И рече Господь ко мне: оправда душу свою отступница Израиль, паче преступницы Иудеи:
12 Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, 'Return, you backsliding Israel,' says the LORD; 'I will not look in anger on you; for I am merciful,' says the LORD. 'I will not keep anger forever.
иди, и прочти словеса та к северу, и речеши: обратися ко мне, доме Израилев, рече Господь: и не утвержду лица Моего на вас, яко милостив Аз есмь, рече Господь, и не прогневаюся на вы во веки.
13 Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against the LORD your God, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and you have not obeyed my voice,'" says the LORD.
Обаче веждь беззаконие твое, яко в Господа Бога твоего преступила еси, и расточила еси пути твоя чуждим под всяким древом листвяным, гласа же Моего не послушала еси, рече Господь.
14 "Return, backsliding children," says the LORD; "for I am a husband to you. I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion.
Обратитеся, сынове отступившии, глаголет Господь: яко Аз возобладаю вами и поиму вы единаго от града и двух от племене, и введу вас в Сион
15 I will give you shepherds according to my heart, who shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
и дам вам пастыри по сердцу Моему, и упасут вас разумом и учением.
16 It shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and increased in the land, in those days," says the LORD, "they shall say no more, 'The ark of the covenant of the LORD.' neither shall it come to mind; neither shall they remember it; neither shall they miss it; neither shall it be made any more.
И будет, егда умножитеся и возрастете на земли, глаголет Господь, во дни оны не рекут ктому: кивот завета Святаго Израилева: не взыдет на сердце, ни воспомянется, ниже посетится, ниже сотворится ктому.
17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem 'The throne of the LORD;' and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem. Neither shall they walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart.
Во дни оны нарекут Иерусалима престол Господень, и соберутся к нему вси языцы во имя Господне во Иерусалим, и не пойдут ктому вслед похотей сердца своего злейшаго.
18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I gave for an inheritance to your fathers.
Во днех тех приидет дом Иудин ко дому Израилеву, и пойдут вкупе от земли северныя и от всех стран к земли, юже дах в наследие отцем их.
19 "But I said, 'How I would put you among the children, and give you a pleasant land, the most beautiful inheritance of all the nations.' and I said, 'You shall call me "My Father," and shall not turn away from following me.'
Аз же рех: да будет, Господи, яко положу тя в чада и дам тебе землю избранную, достояние Бога Вседержителя языков: и рекох: отцем наречете Мя и от Мене не отвратитеся.
20 "Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so you have dealt treacherously with me, house of Israel," says the LORD.
Обаче якоже отвергается жена сожителя своего, тако отвержеся от Мене дом Израилев, рече Господь.
21 A voice is heard on the bare heights, the weeping and the petitions of the children of Israel; because they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the LORD their God.
Глас из устен слышан бысть плача и моления сынов Израилевых, яко беззаконноваша в путех своих, забыша Господа Бога святаго своего.
22 "Return, you backsliding children, I will heal your backsliding." "Look, we have come to you; for you are the LORD our God.
Возвратитеся, сынове возвращаюшиися, и изцелю сокрушения ваша. Се, рабы мы будем Тебе, Ты бо еси Господь Бог наш.
23 Truly the hills are a delusion, the tumult on the mountains. Truly the salvation of Israel is in the LORD our God.
Истинно лживи быша холми и множество гор, токмо Господем Богом нашим спасение Израилево.
24 But the shameful thing has devoured the labor of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
Студ же пояде труды отец наших, от юности нашея, овцы их и телцы их, и сыны их и дщери их.
25 Let us lie down in our shame, and let our confusion cover us; for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day. We have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God."
Уснухом в постыдении нашем, и покры нас безчестие наше, яко Господу Богу нашему согрешихом, мы и отцы наши, от юности нашея даже до сего дне, и не послушахом гласа Господа Бога нашего.
