Второзаконие 31
1 И сконча Моисей глаголя вся словеса сия ко всем сыном Израилевым
When Moses/I finished saying all that to the Israeli people,
2 и рече к ним: ста и двадесяти лет аз есмь днесь: не возмогу ксему входити и исходити: Господь же рече ко мне: не прейдеши Иордана сего:
he/I said to them, “Now I am 120 years old. I am no longer able to go everywhere [that you go] (OR, to be your leader). Furthermore, Yahweh has told me that I will not cross the Jordan [River].
3 Господь Бог твой предидый пред лицем твоим, Той потребит языки сия от лица твоего, и наследиши их: и Иисус предидый пред лицем твоим, якоже глагола Господь:
But Yahweh our God will go ahead of you. He will [enable you to] destroy the nations that are living there, in order that you can occupy their land. Joshua will be your leader, which is what Yahweh already told me.
4 и сотворит им Господь, якоже сотвори Сиону и Огу, двум царем Аморрейским, иже быша об он пол Иордана, и земли их, якоже потреби их
Yahweh will do to those nations what he did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amor people-group when he destroyed their armies [MTY].
5 и предаде их Господь в руце ваши: и сотворите им, якоже заповедах вам:
Yahweh will enable you to conquer those nations, but you must [kill all of the people of those nations, which is] what I have commanded you to do.
6 мужайся и крепися, не бойся, ни ужасайся, ни устрашайся от лица их: яко Господь Бог твой, Сей предидый с вами, и не отступит от тебе, ниже оставит тя.
Be brave and confident. Do not be afraid of those people. [Do not forget that] it is Yahweh our God who will go with you. He will always help [LIT] you and never abandon you.”
7 И призва Моисей Иисуса и рече ему пред всем Израилем: мужайся и крепися: ты бо внидеши пред лицем людий сих в землю, юже клятся Господь отцем вашым дати им, и ты в наследие разделиши ю им:
Then Moses/I summoned Joshua, and while all the Israeli people were listening, he/I said to him, “Be brave and confident. You are the one who will lead these people into the land that Yahweh promised to our ancestors that he would give to them, and you will enable them to occupy it.
8 и Господь, идый с тобою, не отступит от тебе, ниже оставит тя: не бойся, ни ужасайся.
It is Yahweh who will go ahead of you. He will be with you. He will always help [LIT] you. He will never abandon you. So do not be afraid or dismayed.”
9 И вписа Моисей вся словеса закона сего в книгу и даде жерцем сыном Левииным, воздвижущым ковчег завета Господня, и старцем сынов Израилевых.
Moses/I wrote down all these laws [on two scrolls] and gave [one scroll] to the priests, who carried the chest containing the Ten Commandments, and [gave the other scroll] to the Israeli elders.
10 И заповеда им Моисей в той день, глаголя: по седми летех во время лета оставления, в праздник кущей?
Moses/I told them, “At the end of every seven years, at the time that all debts are canceled, [read this to the people] during the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters.
11 Егда сходится весь Израиль явитися пред Господем Богом твоим на месте, еже изберет Господь, читайте закон сей пред всем Израилем во ушы их:
Read it to all the Israeli people when they gather at the place that Yahweh chooses for them to worship him.
12 соберите люди, мужы и жены и дети, и пришелца, иже во градех ваших, да услышат и научатся боятися Господа Бога вашего, и послушают творити вся словеса закона сего:
Gather together everyone—men, women, children, even the foreigners [who are living] in your towns—in order that they may hear [these laws] and learn to revere Yahweh our God, and to faithfully obey everything that is written in these laws.
13 и сынове их, иже не ведят, услышат и научатся боятися Господа Бога вашего во вся дни, елики поживут на земли, на нюже вы преходите Иордан тамо наследити ю.
[If they do that], your descendants who have never known these laws will hear them and will also learn to revere Yahweh our God, during all the years that they live in the land that you are about to cross the Jordan [River] to occupy.”
14 И рече Господь к Моисею: се, приближишася дние смерти твоея: призови Иисуса, и станите пред дверми скинии свидения, и заповем ему и иде Моисей и Иисус ко скинии свидения, и счаста пред дверми скинии свидения.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen carefully. You will soon die. Summon Joshua, and you go to the Sacred Tent with him, in order that I may appoint him [to be the new leader].” So Joshua and Moses/I went to the Sacred Tent.
15 И сниде Господь в столпе облачне, и ста у дверий скинии свидения: и ста столп облачный у дверий скинии свидения.
There Yahweh appeared to them/us in a pillar of cloud, and that cloud was close to the door of the tent.
16 И рече Господь к Моисею: се, ты почиеши со отцы твоими, и воставше людие сии соблудят вслед богов чуждих земли, в нюже входят сии тамо, и оставят Мя, и разорят завет Мой, егоже завещах им:
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “You will soon die [EUP]. Then these people will become unfaithful [MET] to me. They will abandon me and (break/stop obeying) the agreement that I made with them. They will begin to worship the foreign/pagan gods [that are worshiped by the people] of the land that they will enter.
17 и разгневаюся яростию на ня в той день, и оставлю я, и отвращу лице Мое от них, и будут в снедь: и обрящут я зла многа и скорби, и рекут в день той: понеже несть Господа Бога в нас, постигнуша ны злая сия:
When that happens, I will become very angry with them. I will abandon them [DOU] and I will no longer help them [IDM], and I will destroy them {they will be destroyed}. Many terrible things will happen to them, with the result that they will say, ‘[We are certain that] [RHQ] these things are happening to us because our God is no longer with us.’
18 Аз же отвращением отвращу лице Мое от них в той день, злоб ради всех яже сотвориша, яко обратишася к богом чуждим:
And because of all the evil things that they will have done, and [especially because] they will have started to worship other gods, I will refuse to help [IDM] them.
19 и ныне напишите словеса песни сея, и научите ей сыны Израилевы, и вложите ю во уста их, да будет Мне песнь сия во свидетелство в сынех Израилевых:
“So, [I am going to give you] a song. Write it [on a scroll] and teach it to the Israeli people and cause them to memorize it. It will be like a witness that accuses them.
20 введу бо их в землю благую, еюже кляхся отцем их, дати им землю кипящую медом и млеком, и ядят, и насытившеся утолстеют, и обратятся к богом чуждим, и послужат им, и разгневают Мя, и разорят завет Мой, егоже завещах им:
I am about to take them into a very fertile [IDM] land, a land that I solemnly promised their ancestors that I would give to them. There they will have plenty to eat, with the result that their [stomachs] will [always] be full and they will become fat. But then they will turn to other gods and start to worship them, and they will despise me and (break/stop obeying) the agreement that I made with them.
21 и будет егда постигнут их многа зла и скорби, и противостанет песнь сия пред лице их свидетелствующи, яко не забвена будет от яст их и от уст семене их: Аз бо вем злобу их, елика творят днесь зде, прежде введения их в землю благую, еюже кляхся отцем их.
And they will experience many terrible disasters. After that happens, their descendants will never forget this song, and it will be like a witness [that says, ‘Now you know why Yahweh punished your ancestors].’ I will soon take them into the land that I vowed that I would give to them; but now, before I do that, I know what they are thinking [that they will do when they are living there].”
22 И написа Моисей песнь сию в той день и научи ей сыны Израилевы и заповеда Моисей Иисусу сыну Навину и рече ему:
So on the day that [Yahweh gave Moses/me this song], he/I wrote it down, and he/I taught it to the Israeli people.
23 мужайся и крепися: ты бо введеши сыны Израилевы в землю, еюже клятся им Господь, и Той будет с тобою.
Then Yahweh (appointed/set apart) Joshua and said to him, “Be brave and confident, because you will lead the Israeli people into the land that I vowed that I would give to them. And I will be with you.”
24 Егда же сконча Моисей пиша вся словеса закона сего в книгу даже до конца,
Then Moses/I finished writing on a scroll all the laws that Yahweh had told to him/me.
25 и заповеда левитом воздвижущым ковчег завета Господня, глаголя:
Then Moses/I told the descendants of Levi, who were carrying the Sacred Chest that contained the Ten Commandments,
26 вземше книгу закона сего, положите ю от страны ковчега завета Господа Бога вашего, и будет тамо вам во свидетелство:
“Take this scroll on which these laws [are written], and place it beside the Sacred Chest that contains the agreement that Yahweh our God made with you, in order that it may remain there to testify [about what Yahweh will do] to the people [if they disobey him].
27 яко аз вем рвение твое и выю твою жестокую: еще бо мне живу сущу с вами днесь, преогорчающе бысте Господа, кольми паче по смерти моей?
[I say this] because I know that these people are very stubborn [DOU]. They have rebelled against Yahweh all during the time that I have been [with them], and they will rebel much more after I die!
28 Соберите ко мне племеноначалники вашя и старцы вашя, и судии вашя и книговводители вашя, да возглаголю во ушы их вся словеса сия и засвидетелствую им небом и землею:
So gather all the elders of the tribes and your officials, in order that I can tell them the words [of this song], and request all those who are in heaven and on the earth to be witnesses to testify against these people.
29 вем бо, яко по скончании моем беззаконием собеззаконнуете и уклонитеся от пути, егоже (аз) заповедах вам, и срящут вас злая в последния дни, яко сотворите злое пред Господем Богом, прогневати Его в делех рук ваших.
I say that because I know that after I die, the people will become very wicked. They will turn away from doing everything that I have commanded them to do. And in the future, because of all the evil things that they will do, they will cause Yahweh to become angry with them. And he will cause them to experience disasters.”
30 И глагола Моисей во ушеса всего сонма Израилева словеса песни сея даже до конца:
Then, while all the Israeli people listened, Moses/I sang/recited this entire song to them:
