Isaiah 52
1 [You people who live in the] holy city of Jerusalem [APO], wake up! Be strong again! Show that [MTY] your city is beautiful and glorious; foreigners who do not believe in God will not enter your city again [to attack you].
Востани, востани, Сионе, облецыся во крепость твою, Сионе, и ты облецыся во славу твою, Иерусалиме, граде святый, ктому не приложит проити сквозе тя необрезанный и нечистый.
2 People of Jerusalem, get up from [humbly] sitting in the dust and sit in places where people are honored! You people who have returned from being exiled, take off from your neck the chains which were fastened around you [as slaves in Babylonia],
Истряси прах и востани, сяди, Иерусалиме, совлецы узу выи твоея, плененая дщи Сионя.
3 because this is what Yahweh says: “[When you were taken to Babylonia], no one paid me for doing that. So now I will bring you back without [being required to] pay for you!”
Яко сия глаголет Господь: туне продани бысте, и не сребром избавитеся.
4 Yahweh [our] Lord [also] says this: “Long ago, my people went to Egypt to live there. [Later] they were being (oppressed/treated cruelly) by [the soldiers of] Assyria.
Тако глаголет Господь: во Египет снидоша людие Мои прежде, еже пришелцем быти тамо, и во Ассирию нуждею отведошася.
5 But now think about what is happening: My people are being forced to be slaves again, this time by the [people of Babylonia]. And [those who have conquered them this time have also] paid me nothing, and they despise me [MTY] continually [DOU].
И ныне что зде есте? Сия глаголет Господь: яко взяшася людие Мои туне, чудитеся и плачитеся. Тако глаголет Господь: вас ради присно имя Мое хулится во языцех.
6 But my people will then have a close relationship with [MTY] me, and when that happens, they will know that I am the one who predicted/promised [that it would happen]. It is I, [Yahweh, who will do it].”
Сего ради познают людие Мои имя Мое в той день, яко Аз есмь Сам глаголяй, ту есмь.
7 It is a wonderful thing when messengers [MTY] arrive on the mountains/hills, bringing good news, the news about [God giving us] peace and saving us, the news that the God to whom we [Israeli people] belong is now ruling/king!
Коль красны на горах ноги благовествующих мир, благовествующих благая, яко слышано сотворю спасение твое, глаголя: Сионе, воцарится Бог твой.
8 The watchmen [who are guarding the city] will shout and sing joyfully, because while they are watching they will see Yahweh returning to Jerusalem.
Яко глас хранящих тя вознесеся, и гласом вкупе возрадуются: яко очи ко очесем воззрят, егда помилует Господь Сиона.
9 Jerusalem has been ruined, but the people who are there now should start to sing joyfully, because Yahweh will encourage his people; he will set his people free and bring them back to Jerusalem.
Да отрыгнут веселие вкупе пустыни Иерусалимския, яко помилова Господь людий Своих и избави Иерусалима:
10 Yahweh will show all the nations that he is holy and powerful. People in the most remote/distant places on earth will know that he has rescued his people.
и открыет Господь мышцу Свою святую пред всеми языки, и узрят вси концы земли спасение, еже от Бога нашего.
11 So, leave [the places where you were taken to when you were captured], where [everything is] unacceptable to God. You men who carry the items used for the worship of Yahweh, leave there [and return to Jerusalem], and purify yourselves [in order to be acceptable to worship God].
Отступите, отступите, изыдите отсюду и нечистоте не прикасайтеся, изыдите от среды его, отлучитеся, носящии сосуды Господни:
12 But it will not [be necessary] for you to leave suddenly, to flee in panic, because Yahweh will (go in front of/lead) you; and he will [also] protect you [from being attacked] at the rear [while you travel].
яко не с мятежем изыдете, ниже убежанием пойдете: пойдет бо пред вами Господь, и собираяй вы Господь Бог Израилев.
13 [Yahweh says], “Listen carefully! My servant will act wisely (OR, do the right things to accomplish what he wants to), and I will highly exalt him.”
Се, уразумеет отрок Мой и вознесется и прославится зело.
14 But many people will be appalled when they see what has happened to him. [Because of his being beaten very badly], his appearance will be changed; people will hardly recognize that he is a human.
Якоже ужаснутся о Тебе мнози, тако обезславится от человек вид Твой, и слава Твоя от сынов человеческих.
15 But he will cause [people of] many nations to be surprised; [even] kings will be silent when they stand in front of him, because they will see someone that no one had told them about [previously], and they will understand things that they had not heard about [before].
Тако удивятся языцы мнози о Нем, и заградят царие уста своя: яко, имже не возвестися о Нем, узрят, и иже не слышаша, уразумеют.
