Obadiah 1
1 This is a message that Yahweh our God gave to me, Obadiah, about the Edom [people-group]. Yahweh our God has told me this about [the people of] Edom: “I, Yahweh, have sent a messenger to other nations, telling them to prepare to go and attack Edom.”
Видение Авдия. Так говорит Господь Бог об Едоме: весть услышали мы от Господа, и посол послан объявить народам: “вставайте, и выступим против него войною!
2 And Yahweh says this to the people of Edom: “I will soon cause you to become the weakest and most despised nation [on the earth].
Вот, Я сделал тебя малым между народами, и ты в большом презрении.
3 Your [capital city] is high in the rocky cliffs, and you are very proud; you think that you are safe from being attacked by your enemies [RHQ], but you [IDM] have deceived yourselves.
Гордость сердца твоего обольстила тебя; ты живешь в расселинах скал, на возвышенном месте, и говоришь в сердце твоем: “кто низринет меня на землю?”
4 And I tell you that even if [you had wings and] could fly higher than eagles fly, and if you could make your homes among the stars, I would bring you [crashing] down from there.
Но хотя бы ты, как орел, поднялся высоко и среди звезд устроил гнездо твое, то и оттуда Я низрину тебя, говорит Господь.
5 When thieves break into someone’s house during the night, they certainly [RHQ] steal only the things that they want. And people who pick grapes always [RHQ] leave a few grapes on the vines. But your country will be completely destroyed!
Не воры ли приходили к тебе? не ночные ли грабители, что ты так разорен? Но они украли бы столько, сколько надобно им. Если бы проникли к тебе обиратели винограда, то и они разве не оставили бы несколько ягод?
6 Everything that is valuable will be taken away. [Your enemies] will find and take away even the valuable things that you have hidden.
Как обобрано все у Исава и обысканы тайники его!
7 All (your allies/nations who promised to help you) will turn against you, and they will force you to leave your country/land. Those with whom you have peace now will trick/deceive you and defeat you. Those who eat meals with you now are planning to trap you, and [then they will say to you], ‘You are not [RHQ] as clever [as you thought you were]!’
До границы выпроводят тебя все союзники твои, обманут тебя, одолеют тебя живущие с тобою в мире, ядущие хлеб твой нанесут тебе удар. Нет в нем смысла!
8 I, Yahweh, declare that at the time that I destroy Edom, I will punish the men who live in those cliffs who [thought that they] were wise.
Не в тот ли день это будет, говорит Господь, когда Я истреблю мудрых в Едоме и благоразумных на горе Исава?”
9 The soldiers from Teman [town] will become terrified; all you people who are descendants of Esau will be (wiped out/killed).
Поражены будут страхом храбрецы твои, Феман, дабы все на горе Исава истреблены были убийством.
10 You acted cruel in a cruel way toward your relatives who are descendants of Jacob, [the twin brother of your ancestor Esau]. So now you will be disgraced forever; you will be completely destroyed.
За притеснение брата твоего, Иакова, покроет тебя стыд и ты истреблен будешь навсегда.
11 Foreigners entered the gates of Jerusalem and (cast lots/threw small stones that were marked) to decide what valuable things they would take away; but you were as bad as those foreigners, because you just stood there [and did not help the Israelis].
В тот день, когда ты стоял напротив, в тот день, когда чужие уводили войско его в плен и иноплеменники вошли в ворота его и бросали жребий о Иерусалиме, ты был как один из них.
12 You should not have (gloated/been happy) about the disaster that the Israelis were experiencing. You should not have been happy when their towns were ruined. You should not have made fun [of them] when they were suffering.
Не следовало бы тебе злорадно смотреть на день брата твоего, на день отчуждения его; не следовало бы радоваться о сынах Иуды в день гибели их и расширять рот в день бедствия.
13 They are my people, so you should not have entered their [city] gates when they were experiencing those disasters and you should not have laughed at them. And you should not have taken away their [valuable] possessions.
Не следовало бы тебе входить в ворота народа Моего в день несчастья его и даже смотреть на злополучие его в день погибели его, ни касаться имущества его в день бедствия его,
14 You should not have stood at crossroads to catch those who were [trying to] escape. You should not have [captured them and] put them into the hands of [their enemies] when they were experiencing those disasters.”
ни стоять на перекрестках для убивания бежавших его, ни выдавать уцелевших из него в день бедствия.
15 “There will soon be the time when I, Yahweh, will judge [and punish] all the nations. And you [people of Edom] will experience the same [disasters] that you caused [others to experience]. The same evil things that you have done to others will happen to you.
Ибо близок день Господень на все народы: как ты поступал, так поступлено будет и с тобою; воздаяние твое обратится на голову твою.
16 [My people in Jerusalem have been punished] because I was very angry with them. [It is as though] [MET] they drank [a cup of very bitter liquid] on Zion, my sacred hill. But [I] will punish [MET] all the other nations even more severely, and cause them to disappear completely.
Ибо, как вы пили на святой горе Моей, так все народы всегда будут пить, будут пить, проглотят и будут, как бы их не было.
17 But some [people in Jerusalem will escape], and Jerusalem will become a very holy/sacred place. Then the descendants of Jacob will [conquer and] possess again the land that truly belongs to them.
А на горе Сионе будет спасение, и будет она святынею; и дом Иакова получит во владение наследие свое.
18 The descendants [MTY] of Jacob and his son Joseph will be like [MET] a fire, and the people [MTY] of Edom will be like [MET] stubble that will be completely burned in that fire. Not one person will remain alive. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
И дом Иакова будет огнем, и дом Иосифа - пламенем, а дом Исавов - соломою: зажгут его и истребят его, и никого не останется из дома Исава: ибо Господь сказал это.
19 The Israeli people [who live] in the southern desert are the ones who will capture Edom. And those [who live in] the western foothills will capture the Phoenicia [region] and the areas of Ephraim and Samaria. And people of the tribe of Benjamin will conquer the Gilead [region].
И завладеют те, которые к югу, горою Исава, а которые в долине, - Филистимлянами; и завладеют полем Ефрема и полем Самарии, а Вениамин завладеет Галаадом.
20 Those who were (exiled in/forced to go to) [Babylon] will [return to their land] [and] capture the Phoenicia [region] as far north as Zarephath [on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea]. People of Jerusalem who were captured and taken to Sardis, [the capital city of the Lydia region], will capture the towns in the southern desert.
И переселенные из войска сынов Израилевых завладеют землею Ханаанскою до Сарепты, а переселенные из Иерусалима, находящиеся в Сефараде, получат во владение города южные.
21 The army of Jerusalem will attack Edom and conquer it, and Yahweh will be their king.
И придут спасители на гору Сион, чтобы судить гору Исава, и будет царство Господа
