Isaiah 41
1 Keep silence before me, O isles; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment.
Обновляйтеся ко Мне, острови князи бо изменят крепость: да приближатся и да глаголют вкупе, тогда суд да возвещают.
2 Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow.
Кто возстави от восток правду, призва ю к ногам своим, и пойдет? Даст пред языки, и цари ужасит: и повержет на землю мечы их, и аки стеблие отвержени луцы их,
3 He pursued them, and passed safely; even by the way that he had not gone with his feet.
и проженет я, и пройдет с миром путь ног его.
4 Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he.
Кто содела и сотвори сия, призва ю призываяй ю от начала родов. Аз Бог первый, и в грядущая Аз есмь.
5 The isles saw it, and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew near, and came.
Видеша языцы и убояшася, концы земнии приближишася и приидоша вкупе.
6 They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage.
Судяй кийждо ближнему, и брату помощи, и речет:
7 So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the hammer him that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he fastened it with nails, that it should not be moved.
превозможе муж древоделатель и ковачь бияй млатом, вкупе проковаяй: овогда убо речет: спаяние добро есть, утвердиша я гвоздьми, положат я, и не подвигнутся.
8 But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
Ты же, Израилю, рабе Мой, Иакове, егоже избрах, семя Авраамле, егоже возлюбих,
9 Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from its chief men, and said to thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
егоже поях от конец земли, и от стражб ея призвах тя, и рекох ти: раб Мой еси, избрах тя, и не оставих тебе:
10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
не бойся, с тобою бо есмь, не прельщаю: Аз бо есмь Бог твой, укрепивый тя, и помогох ти, и утвердих тя десницею Моею праведною:
11 Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that contend with thee shall perish.
се, постыдятся и посрамятся вси сопротивляющиися тебе, будут бо яко не сущии, и погибнут вси соперницы твои:
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.
взыщеши их, и не обрящеши человеков, иже поругаются тебе: будут бо аки не бывшии и не будут ратующии тебе.
13 For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying to thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
Яко Аз Бог твой держай десницу твою, глаголяй тебе:
14 Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
не бойся, Иакове, малый Израилю, Аз помогох ти, глаголет Бог твой, Избавляяй тя Святый Израилев:
15 Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt make the hills as chaff.
се, сотворих тя аки колеса колесничная новая, стирающая аки пила, и сотреши горы, и истончиши холмы, и аки прах положиши,
16 Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in the LORD, and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
и извееши, и ветр возмет я, и буря развеет я: ты же возвеселишися во Святых Израилевых.
17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
И возрадуются убозии и неимущии: поищут бо воды, и не будет, язык их от жажди изсше. Аз Господь Бог, Аз услышу их, Бог Израилев, и не оставлю их,
18 I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
но отверзу на горах реки и среди поля источники, сотворю пустыню в луги водныя и жаждущую землю в водотечы,
19 I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, the pine, and the box tree together:
положу в безводную землю кедр и смерчие, и мирсину и кипарис и тополю:
20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.
да узрят и уразумеют, и помыслят и уведят вкупе, яко рука Господня сотвори сия вся, и Святый Израилев показа.
21 Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob.
Приближается суд ваш, глаголет Господь Бог: приближишася совети ваши, глаголет Царь Иаковль.
22 Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare to us things to come.
Да приближатся и возвестят вам, яже сбудутся, или яже прежде быша, рцыте: и приставим ум и уразумеем, что последняя и будущая: рцыте нам,
23 Show the things that are to come after this, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.
возвестите нам грядущая на последок, и увемы, яко бози есте: благо сотворите и зло сотворите, и почудимся и узрим вкупе.
24 Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you.
Яко откуду есте вы, и откуду дело ваше? От земли мерзость избраша вас.
25 I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as upon morter, and as the potter treadeth clay.
Аз же возставих, иже от севера и иже от восток солнечных прозовутся именем Моим: да приидут князи, и яко брение скудельника и яко скудельник топчущь брение, тако попрани будете.
26 Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and in times past, that we may say, He is righteous? verily, there is none that showeth, verily, there is none that declareth, verily, there is none that heareth your words.
Кто бо возвестит, яже исперва, да увемы, яже напреди, и речем, яко истинна суть? Несть предглаголющаго, ни слышащаго словес ваших.
27 The first shall say to Zion, Behold, behold them: and I will give to Jerusalem one that bringeth good tidings.
Начало Сиону дам и Иерусалима утешу на пути.
28 For I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word.
От язык бо, се, ни един и от кумир их несть возвещаяй. И аще вопрошу их, откуду есте? Не отвещают ми.
29 Behold, they are all vanity; their works are nothing: their molten images are wind and confusion.
Суть бо творящии вас и всуе прельщающии вас.
