Nahum 2
1 He that breaketh in pieces hath come up over thy face, Keep the keeps, —watch the way, brace the loins, make vigour very firm.
Взыде вдыхаяй в лице твое, отемляй от оскорбления: усмотри путь, укрепи чресла, возмужай крепостию зело:
2 For Yahweh hath restored the excellency of Jacob, like the excellency of Israel, —for the plunderers have plundered them, and, their vine branches, have they marred.
понеже отврати Господь укоризну Иаковлю, якоже укоризну Израилеву: зане отрясающии отрясоша я и лозы их растлиша.
3 The shield of his heroes, is made red, the men of war, are clad in crimson, on fire, are the chariot-steels, on the day he maketh ready, —and, the lances, are put in motion.
Оружия силы их от человек, мужы сильныя играющыя во огни: брозды колесниц их в день уготования его, и конницы возмятутся на путех,
4 In the streets, madly go the chariots, they rush along in the broadways, —their appearance, is like torches, as lightnings, hither and thither do they run.
и смятутся колесницы и сплетутся на стогнах: вид их яко свещы огненны, и яко молния протекающая.
5 Let him call to mind his nobles, they shall stumble as they go—let them hasten to her wall, yet the storming cover, is prepared.
И помянутся старейшины их, и побегнут в день, и изнемогут в пути своем, и потщатся на забрала его, и уготовят предния стражбы своя.
6 The gates of the rivers, have been opened, —and, the palace, doth quake.
Врата градная отверзошася, и царства падоша, и имение открыся.
7 And, Huzzab, hath been taken captive—hath been led up, —and, her handmaids, are making a moan like the sound of doves, as they taber upon their heart.
Сия же восхождаше, и рабыни ея ведяхуся, яко голубицы воркующя в сердцах своих:
8 Yet, as for Nineveh, like a reservoir of waters, are her waters, —but, those men, are in flight! Stand! stand! but no one is turning.
и Ниневиа, аки купель водная воды ея, и тии бежаще не сташа, и не бе взирающаго.
9 Plunder silver, plunder gold, —and there is no end to the costly furnishing, rich with every article of delight.
Расхищаху сребро, расхищаху злато, и не бяше конца имения ея: отяготишася паче всех сосудов вожделенная ея.
10 Emptiness, yea turned to emptiness, aye deserted [is she]! with, heart, unnerved, and, a tottering, of knees, and, anguish, in all loins, and, the faces of them all, have withdrawn their colour.
Истрясение и вострясение, и воскипение и сердца сокрушение, и разслабление колен и болезни по всем чреслом, и лице всех, аки опаление котла.
11 Where is the lair of the lions? Yea the very feeding-place of the young lions, —where walked the lion, the lioness, the lion’s whelp, with none to make them afraid?
Где есть виталище львов и пажить сущая львичищем? Камо иде лев, еже влезти тамо львичищу, и не бяше устрашающаго.
12 The lion, used to tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and to strangle for his lionesses, —and then fill with prey his holes, and his lairs with what he had torn.
Лев восхити доволная львичищем своим и удави львицам своим, и наполни ловитвы гнездо свое и виталище свое похищения.
13 Behold me! against thee, Declareth Yahweh of hosts, Therefore will I burn up in smoke her chariots, and, thy young lions, shall be devoured by the sword, —so will I cut off, out of the earth, thy prey, nor shall be heard any more, the voice of thine envoy.
Се, Аз на тя, глаголет Господь Вседержитель, и пожгу дымом множество твое, и львы твоя пояст оружие: и потреблю от земли ловитву твою, и не услышатся ктому дела твоя.
