< Isaiah 15 >
1 [I received] this message [from Yahweh] about the Moab [people-group]: In one night [two of your important cities], Ar and Kir, will be destroyed.
Пророчество о Моаве. - Так! ночью будет разорен Ар-Моав и уничтожен; так! ночью будет разорен Кир-Моав и уничтожен!
2 The people of Dibon, [your capital city, ] will go to their temple to mourn/weep; they will go to [their shrines] on the hilltops to weep. They will wail because of [what happened to] Nebo and Medeba [towns in the south]; they will all shave the hair of their heads, and the men will cut off their beards [to show that they are grieving].
Он восходит к Баиту и Дивону, восходит на высоты, чтобы плакать; Моав рыдает над Нево и Медевою; у всех их острижены головы, у всех обриты бороды.
3 In the streets people will wear rough sackcloth, and on their [flat] rooftops and in the [city] plazas everyone will wail, with tears streaming down their faces.
На улицах его препоясываются вретищем; на кровлях его и площадях его все рыдает, утопает в слезах.
4 [The people of] Heshbon [city] and Elealeh [towns in the north of Moab] will cry out; people as far away as Jahaz [town in the south] will hear them wailing. Therefore the soldiers of Moab will tremble and cry out and they will be very afraid [IDM].
И вопит Есевон и Елеала; голос их слышится до самой Иаацы; за ними и воины Моава рыдают; душа его возмущена в нем.
5 I feel very sorry for [the people of] Moab; they will flee to Zoar and Eglath-Shelishiyah [towns in the far south]. They will cry as they walk up to Luhith [town]. All along the road to Horonaim [town] people will mourn because their country has been destroyed.
Рыдает сердце мое о Моаве; бегут из него к Сигору, до третьей Эглы; восходят на Лухит с плачем; по дороге Хоронаимской поднимают страшный крик;
6 The water in Nimrim [Valley] will have dried up. The grass there will be withered; the green plants will [all] be gone, and there will be nothing left that is green.
потому что воды Нимрима иссякли, луга засохли, трава выгорела, не стало зелени.
7 The people will pick up their possessions and carry them across Willows Brook.
Поэтому они остатки стяжания и, что сбережено ими, переносят за реку Аравийскую.
8 Throughout the country of Moab, [people] will be crying; people as far away as Eglaim [in the south] and Beer-Elim [in the north] will hear them wailing.
Ибо вопль по всем пределам Моава, до Эглаима плач его и до Беэр-Елима плач его;
9 The stream near Dimon will become red from the blood [of people who have been killed], but I will cause the people of Moab to experience even more [trouble]: Lions will attack those who [are trying to] escape from Moab and will [also] attack the people who remain in that country.
потому что воды Димона наполнились кровью, и Я наведу на Димон еще новое - львов на убежавших из Моава и на оставшихся в стране.
