Исаия 26
1 В тот день будет воспета песнь сия в земле Иудиной: город крепкий у нас; спасение дал Он вместо стены и вала.
Some day, [people in] Judah will sing this song: Our city [of Jerusalem] is strong! Yahweh protects our city; He is like [MET] a wall that surrounds it.
2 Отворите ворота; да войдет народ праведный, хранящий истину.
Open the gates of the city for people who are righteous; allow people who faithfully [obey Yahweh] to enter the city.
3 Твердого духом Ты хранишь в совершенном мире, ибо на Тебя уповает он.
Yahweh, those who trust in you, those who firmly resolve to never doubt you, you will enable them to feel perfectly peaceful.
4 Уповайте на Господа вовеки, ибо Господь Бог есть твердыня вечная:
[So] always trust in Yahweh, because Yahweh, [our God], is forever [like] [MET] a huge rock [under which we are sheltered/protected/safe].
5 Он ниспроверг живших на высоте, высоко стоявший город; поверг его, поверг на землю, бросил его в прах.
He humbles proud people and destroys cities whose people are arrogant. He causes those cities to collapse into the dust/dirt.
6 Нога попирает его, ноги бедного, стопы нищих.
[When that happens], poor and oppressed people will trample on the ruins.
7 Путь праведника прям; Ты уравниваешь стезю праведника.
[But as for] righteous people, Yahweh, you do what is right; [it is as though] you cause the paths where they walk to be level and smooth.
8 И на пути судов Твоих, Господи, мы уповали на Тебя; к имени Твоему и к воспоминанию о Тебе стремилась душа наша.
Yahweh, by obeying your laws we show that we trust you to help us; and what we desire is that you will be honored/praised/exalted.
9 Душею моею я стремился к Тебе ночью, и духом моим я буду искать Тебя во внутренности моей с раннего утра: ибо когда суды Твои совершаются на земле, тогда живущие в мире научаются правде.
[All] through the night I [SYN] desire to know you better, and each morning I still want to be with you. [Only] when you come to judge [and punish] people who live on the earth will they learn to do what is right.
10 Если нечестивый будет помилован, то не научится он правде, - будет злодействовать в земле правых и не будет взирать на величие Господа.
[But] your acting kindly toward wicked people does not cause them to do what is good. [Even] in places where people do what is right, the wicked people continue to do what is evil, and they do not realize that you, Yahweh, are great.
11 Господи! рука Твоя была высоко поднята, но они не видали ее; увидят и устыдятся ненавидящие народ Твой; огонь пожрет врагов Твоих.
Yahweh, [it is as though] your fist is raised up [ready to strike them], but they do not realize that. Show them that you are very eager to help your people. If your enemies would realize that, they would be ashamed; allow your fire to burn them up [because they are] your enemies.
12 Господи! Ты даруешь нам мир; ибо и все дела наши Ты устрояешь для нас.
Yahweh, [we desire that] you will allow things to go well for us; everything that we have done is what you have enabled us to do.
13 Господи Боже наш! другие владыки кроме Тебя господствовали над нами; но чрез Тебя только мы славим имя Твое.
Yahweh, our God, others have ruled over us, but you [MTY] are the only one whom we honor.
14 Мертвые не оживут; рефаимы не встанут, потому что Ты посетил и истребил их, и уничтожил всякую память о них.
Those who ruled us are [now] gone; they are dead; their spirits have left this earth, and they will not become alive [again]. You punished those rulers and got rid of them, and people do not even remember them any more.
15 Ты умножил народ, Господи, умножил народ, - прославил Себя, распространил все пределы земли.
Yahweh, you have enabled our nation to become great; we are more in [now], and we have more land, [so we] thank/praise you.
16 Господи! в бедствии он искал Тебя; изливал тихие моления, когда наказание Твое постигало его.
Yahweh, when we were distressed, we asked you [to help us]; when you disciplined/punished us, we were able only to whisper when we prayed to you.
17 Как беременная женщина, при наступлении родов, мучится, вопит от болей своих, так были мы пред Тобою, Господи.
Like pregnant women writhe and cry out when they are giving birth, we suffered very much, too.
18 Были беременны, мучились, и рождали как бы ветер; спасения не доставили земле, и прочие жители вселенной не пали.
We had severe pain, but nothing good resulted [MET] from it. We have not rescued our people [from being conquered by our enemies], and we have not given birth to children [who will rule the world correctly] (OR, not defeated the armies [that have attacked other nations].
19 Оживут мертвецы Твои, восстанут мертвые тела! Воспряньте и торжествуйте, поверженные в прахе: ибо роса Твоя - роса растений, и земля извергнет мертвецов.
But Yahweh’s people who have died will become alive [again], their corpses will become alive! Those whose bodies lie in graves will rise and shout joyfully! His light will be [like] dew that falls on his people who have died, who are [now] in the place where the dead people are, [and will cause them to become alive again].
20 Пойди, народ мой, войди в покои твои и запри за собой двери твои, укройся на мгновение, доколе не пройдет гнев;
But now, my people/fellow-citizens, go home and lock your doors! Hide for a short time, until [Yahweh] is no longer angry.
21 ибо вот, Господь выходит из жилища Своего наказать обитателей земли за их беззаконие, и земля откроет поглощенную ею кровь и уже не скроет убитых своих.
Listen to this: Yahweh will come from heaven to punish [all] the people on the earth for the sins that they have committed. People will be able to see [PRS] the (blood of those/the people) who have been murdered; their murderers will no longer be able to hide.
