< Jeremiah 37 >

1 And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
И царствова Седекиа сын Иосиин вместо Иехонии сына Иоакимова, егоже постави Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский царствовати во Иудеи.
2 But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, hearkened to the words of the LORD, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.
И не послуша той и отроцы его и людие земли словес Господних, яже глагола рукою Иеремииною.
3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now to the LORD our God for us.
И посла царь Седекиа Иоахала сына Селемиина и Софонию сына Массеа жерца ко Иеремии пророку, глаголя: молися за ны ко Господу Богу нашему.
4 Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people: for they had not put him into prison.
Иеремиа же свободен прихождаше и прохождаше среде града, не введоша бо его во храмину темничную.
5 Then Pharaoh’s army had come from Egypt: and when the Chaldeans that besieged Jerusalem heard tidings of them, they departed from Jerusalem.
И сила фараоня изыде из Египта, и слышавше Халдее облегшии Иерусалим слух их, отступиша от Иерусалима.
6 Then came the word of the LORD to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
И бысть слово Господне ко Иеремии глаголя:
7 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you to me to enquire of me; Behold, Pharaoh’s army, which hath come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land.
тако рече Господь Бог Израилев: тако речеши царю Иудину, пославшему к тебе вопросити Мя: се, сила фараоня, изшедшая вам на помощь, возвратится паки до земли Египетския,
8 And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire.
и возвратятся Халдее и повоюют град сей, и возмут его и пожгут его огнем.
9 Thus saith the LORD; Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us: for they shall not depart.
Яко тако рече Господь: не прельщайте душ своих, глаголюще: отходяше отидут от нас Халдее: яко не отидут.
10 For though ye had smitten the whole army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yet should they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire.
И аще побиете всю силу Халдеев воюющих на вы, и останут нецыи язвени, кийждо на месте своем, сии востанут и пожгут град сей огнем.
11 And it came to pass, that when the army of the Chaldeans was broken up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s army,
И бысть егда взыде сила Халдейска от Иерусалима, от лица силы фараони,
12 Then Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to separate himself from there in the midst of the people.
изыде Иеремиа из Иерусалима ити в землю Вениаминю, еже купити оттуду посреде людий.
13 And when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he took Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Thou fallest away to the Chaldeans.
Внегда же быти ему во вратех Вениаминих, и (бысть) тамо человек, у негоже обита Саруиа сын Селемиин, сына Ананиина, и взя Иеремию, глаголя: ко Халдеем ты бежиши.
14 Then said Jeremiah, It is false; I fall not away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
И рече Иеремиа: лжа, не ко Халдеем аз бегу. И не послуша его. И взя Саруиа Иеремию и приведе его ко князем.
15 Therefore the princes were angry with Jeremiah, and beat him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
И разгневашася князи на Иеремию и биша его, и послаша его в дом Ионафана книгочия, яко той сотвориша храминою темничною.
16 When Jeremiah had entered into the dungeon, and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days;
И прииде Иеремиа в дом рва и в херет, и седе ту дни многи.
17 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took him out: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from the LORD? And Jeremiah said, There is: for, said he, thou shalt be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.
И посла Седекиа царь и призва его, и вопрошаше его царь отай, аще есть слово от Господа? И рече ему Иеремиа: есть. И рече: в руце царя и Вавилонска предан будеши.
18 Moreover Jeremiah said to king Zedekiah, How have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in prison?
И рече Иеремиа царю: чим преобидех тя и отроки твоя и люди сия, яко ты вдаеши мя в дом темничный?
19 Where are now your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land?
И где суть пророцы ваши прорицавшии вам, глаголюще, яко не приидет царь Вавилонский на вас и на землю сию?
20 Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
Ныне же послушай, молютися, господи мой, царю, да падет моление мое пред лицем твоим: и не посылай мя паки в дом Ионафана книгочия, да не умру тамо.
21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread out of the baker’s street, until all the bread in the city should be consumed. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.
И повеле царь, и ввергоша его во храмину темничную, и даяху ему хлеб един на день извне, идеже пекут, дондеже скончашася хлебы из града. И седяше Иеремиа во дворе темничнем.
