Isaiah 37
1 It came about that when King Hezekiah heard their report, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Yahweh.
И бысть егда услыша царь Езекиа, растерза ризы и облечеся во вретище и вниде во храм Господень:
2 He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, all covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet.
и посла Елиакима домостроителя, и Сомну книгочия, и старейшины жречески оболчены во вретища ко Исаии пророку сыну Амосову.
3 They said to him, “Hezekiah says, 'This day is a day of distress, rebuke, and disgrace, like when a child is ready to be born, but the mother has no strength to give birth to her child.
И рекоша ему: сия глаголет Езекиа: день печали и укоризны и обличения и гнева днешний день, понеже прииде болезнь раждающей, крепости же не имеет родити:
4 It may be Yahweh your God will hear the words of the chief commander, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to defy the living God, and will rebuke the words which Yahweh your God has heard. Now lift up your prayer for the remnant that is still here.'”
да услышит Господь Бог твой словеса Рапсакова, яже посла царь Ассирийский, господин его, укаряти Бога живаго и поносити словесы, яже слыша Господь Бог твой, и да помолишися ко Господеви Богу твоему о оставшихся сих.
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah,
И приидоша отроцы царя Езекии ко Исаии.
6 and Isaiah said to them, “Say to your master: 'Yahweh says, “Do not be afraid of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have insulted me.
И рече им Исаиа: сице рцыте ко господину вашему: сия глаголет Господь: не убойся от словес, яже еси слышал, имиже укориша Мя послы царя Ассирийска:
7 Look, I will put a spirit in him, and he will hear a certain report and go back to his own land. I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.”'”
се, Аз вложу в него дух, и услышав весть возвратится во страну свою и падет мечем на своей земли.
8 Then the chief commander returned and found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah, for he had heard that the king had gone away from Lachish.
И возвратися Рапсак и обрете царя Ассирийскаго облежаща Ловну: и услыша царь Ассирийск, яко отиде от Лахиса,
9 Then Sennacherib heard that Tirhakah king of Cush and Egypt had mobilized to fight against him, so he sent messengers again to Hezekiah with a message:
и изыде Фарака царь Ефиопский воевати нань: и услышав возвратися и посла послы ко Езекии, глаголя:
10 “Say to Hezekiah, king of Judah, 'Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, “Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”
сице рцыте Езекии царю Иудейску: да не прельщает Бог твой тебе, на Негоже уповая еси, глаголя, яко не предастся Иерусалим в руце царя Ассирийска:
11 See, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands by destroying them completely. So will you be rescued?
или не слышал еси ты, что сотвориша царие Ассирийстии, како всю землю погубиша, и ты ли избавишися?
12 Have the gods of the nations rescued them, the nations that my fathers destroyed: Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden in Tel Assar?
Еда избавиша сих бози язычестии, ихже погубиша отцы мои Гозан и Харран и Расем, иже суть во стране Феемафи?
13 Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the cities of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?'”
Где суть царие Емафовы, и где Арфафовы, и где града Епфаруема, Анагугана?
14 Hezekiah received this letter from hand of the messengers and read it. Then he went up to the house of Yahweh and spread it before him.
И взя Езекиа книгу от послов и прочте ю, и вниде во храм Господень и отверзе ю пред Господем.
15 Hezekiah prayed to Yahweh:
И помолися Езекиа ко Господеви, глаголя:
16 “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, you who sit above the cherubim, you are God alone over all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth.
Господи Саваоф, Боже Израилев, седяй на Херувимех, Ты еси Бог един Царь всякаго царства вселенныя, Ты сотворил еси небо и землю:
17 Turn your ear, Yahweh, and listen. Open your eyes, Yahweh, and see, and hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God.
приклони, Господи, ухо Твое, услыши, Господи, отверзи, Господи, очи Твои, призри, Господи, и виждь и слыши вся словеса Сеннахиримля, яже посла укаряти Бога живаго:
18 It is true, Yahweh, the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the nations and their lands.
поистинне бо, Господи, пусту сотвориша царие Ассирийстии всю землю и страны их,
19 They have put their gods into the fire, for they were not gods but the work of men's hands, just wood and stone. So the Assyrians have destroyed them.
и ввергоша кумиры их во огнь, не беша бо бози, но дела рук человеческих, древа и камение, и погубиша я:
20 So now, Yahweh our God, save us from his power, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are Yahweh alone.”
ныне же, Господи Боже наш, спаси ны от руки их, да уведят вся царствия земная, яко Ты еси (Господь) Бог един.
21 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a message to Hezekiah, saying, “Yahweh, the God of Israel says, 'Because you have prayed to me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,
И послан бысть Исаиа сын Амосов ко Езекии и рече ему: сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: слышах, о нихже молился еси ко Мне о Сеннахириме цари Ассирийстем.
22 this is the word that Yahweh has spoken about him: “The virgin daughter of Zion despises you and laughs you to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head at you.
Сие слово, еже глагола о нем Бог: похули тя и поругася тебе девица дщи Сионя, на тя главою покива дщи Иерусалимля:
23 Whom have you defied and insulted? Against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes in pride? Against the Holy One of Israel.
кого укорил и разгневал еси? Или к кому возвысил еси глас твой, и не воздвигл еси на высоту очес твоих? Ко Святому Израилеву!
24 By your servants you have defied the Lord and have said, 'With the multitude of my chariots I have gone up to the heights of the mountains, to the highest elevations of Lebanon. I will cut down its tall cedars and choice cypress trees there, and I will enter into its farthest high places, its most fruitful forest.
Яко послами укорил еси Господа, ты бо рекл еси: множеством колесниц аз взыдох на высоту гор и на последняя Ливана, и посекох высоту кедра его и доброту кипарисову, и внидох в высоту части дубравныя
25 I have dug wells and drunk water; I dried up all the rivers of Egypt under the soles of my feet.'
и положих мост, и опустоших воды и все собрание водное:
26 Have you not heard how I determined it long ago and worked it out in ancient times? Now I am bringing it to pass. You are here to reduce impregnable cities into heaps of ruins.
не слышал ли еси издревле сих, яже Аз сотворих? От древних дний совещах, ныне же показах опустошити языки в твердынех и живущыя во твердых градех:
27 Their inhabitants, of little strength, are shattered and ashamed. They are plants in the field, green grass, the grass on the roof or in the field, before the east wind.
опустих руце, и изсхоша и быша аки сухо сено на кровех и аки троскот:
28 But I know your sitting down, your going out, your coming in, and your raging against me.
ныне же покой твой и исход твой и вход твой Аз вем,
29 Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance has reached my ears, I will put my hook in your nose, and my bit in your mouth; I will turn you back the way you came.”
ярость же твоя, еюже разгневался еси, и огорчение твое взыде ко Мне, и вложу брозду в ноздри твоя, и узду во уста твоя, и возвращу тя путем, имже еси пришел.
30 This will be the sign for you: This year you will eat what grows wild, and in the second year what grows from that. But in the third year you must plant and harvest, plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
Сие же тебе знамение: яждь сего лета, еже еси всеял, а во второе лето, еже от себе растет: а в третие насеявше пожнете и насадите винограды и снесте плоды их:
31 The remnant of the house of Judah that survives will again take root and bear fruit.
и будут оставшии во Иудеи, прорастят корение долу и сотворят в верх плод,
32 For from Jerusalem a remnant will come out; from Mount Zion survivors will come. The zeal of Yahweh of hosts will do this.'”
яко от Иерусалима будут оставшиися и спасшиися от горы Сиони: ревность Господа Саваофа сотворит сия.
33 Therefore Yahweh says this about the king of Assyria: “He will not come into this city and he will not shoot an arrow here. He will not come before it with shield or build up a siege ramp against it.
Сего ради тако глаголет Господь на царя Ассирийска: не внидет в сей град, ниже пустит нань стрелу, ниже возложит нань щита, ниже оградит окрест его ограждения:
34 The way by which he came will be the same way he will leave; he will not enter this city—this is Yahweh's declaration.
но путем, имже прииде, темже возвратится, и во град сей не внидет. Сия глаголет Господь:
35 For I will defend this city and rescue it, for my own sake and for David my servant's sake.”
защищу град сей, еже спасти его Мене ради и ради Давида раба Моего.
36 Then the angel of Yahweh went out and attacked the camp of the Assyrians, putting to death 185,000 soldiers. When the men arose early in the morning, dead bodies lay everywhere.
И изыде Ангел Господень и изби от полка Ассирийска сто осмьдесят пять тысящ. И воставше заутра, обретоша вся телеса мертва.
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria left Israel and went home and stayed in Nineveh.
И отиде возвращься Сеннахирим царь Ассирийский и вселися во Ниневии.
38 Later, as he was worshiping in the house of Nisrok his god, his sons Adrammelek and Sharezer killed him with the sword. Then they escaped into the land of Ararat. Then Esarhaddon his son reigned in his place.
И внегда покланятися ему и в дому Насараху отечествоначалнику своему, Адрамелех и Сарасар сынове его убиста его мечьми, сами же убежаста во Армению. И воцарися Асордан сын его вместо его.
