Второзаконие 33
1 И сие благословение, имже благослови Моисей человек Божий сыны Израилевы прежде скончания своего,
Now, this, is the blessing wherewith Moses, the man of God, blessed the sons of Israel, —before his death.
2 и рече: Господь от Синаи прииде, и явися от Сиира нам, и приспе от горы Фарани, и прииде со тмами святых, одесную Его ангели с ним,
And he said—Yahweh from Sinai, came near, —Yea he dawned, out of Seir, upon them, He shone forth out of Mount Paran, Yea he came out of holy myriads, —Out of his right hand [proceeded] fire to guide them.
3 и пощаде люди Своя: и вси освященнии под руками Твоими, и сии под Тобою суть.
Yea he loved the tribes, All his holy ones, were in thy hand, —Yea, they, were encamped at thy feet, Each one bare away some of thy words.
4 И прия от словес Его закон, егоже заповеда нам Моисей, наследие сонму Иаковлю:
A law, did Moses command us, —A possession, for the convocation of Jacob.
5 и будет в Возлюбленнем князь, собравшымся князем людским купно с племены Израилевыми.
Thus became he in, Jeshurun, a king, —When the heads of the people gathered them-selves together, As one man, the tribes of Israel. [Reuben] —
6 Да живет Рувим, и да не умрет, и Симеон да будет мног числом.
Let Reuben live and not die, —Nor his men be easily counted.
7 И сие Иуде: услыши, Господи, глас Иудин и в люди его вниди: руце его поборют по нем, и помощник на враги его да будеши.
And, this, is for Judah, when he said, Hear, O Yahweh, the voice of Judah, That unto his own people, thou wouldst bring him home, —Let, his own hands, suffice him, And, a helper from his adversaries, do thou become.
8 И Левию рече: дадите Левию явленная Его, и истину Его мужу преподобну, егоже искусиша Искушением, укориша его у воды Пререкания:
And of Levi, he said: Let, thy perfections and thy lights, belong unto thy man of lovingkindness, —Whom thou didst put to the proof at Massah, With whom thou didst contend over the waters of Meribah;
9 глаголяй отцу своему и матери своей: не видех тебе: и братии своея не позна, и сынов своих не уведе: сохрани словеса Твоя и завет Твой соблюде:
Who saith of his father and of his mother, I behold them not, And, his own brethren, regardeth he not, And, his own sons, observeth he not, —Because they watch thy speech, That, thy covenant, they may preserve;
10 явят оправдания Твоя Иакову и закон Твой Израилю: возложат фимиам во гневе Твоем всегда на олтарь Твой:
May teach thy regulations unto Jacob, And thy law unto Israel, —May put incense in thy nostrils, And a whole-offering upon thine altar.
11 благослови, Господи, крепость его и дела руку его приими: порази чресла воставших на него врагов его, и ненавидящии его да не востанут.
Bless, O Yahweh his substance, And with the work of his hands, wilt thou be well pleased, —Crush thou the loins of them who rise up against him, And of them who hate him, that they rise not again.
12 И Вениамину рече: возлюбленный Господем уповаяй вселится (в Нем), и Бог осеняет его во вся дни, и посреде рамен Его почи.
Of Benjamin, he said, The beloved of Yahweh, shall settle down securely, —With one to throw a shade over him all the day long, Yea, between his shoulders, hath he found rest.
13 И Иосифови рече: от благословения Господня земля его, от красот небесных и росы, и от бездн источников низу,
And of Joseph, he said, Blessed of Yahweh, be his land, —With the precious things of the heavens with the dew, And with the abyss, couching beneath;
14 и во время плодов солнечных обращений, и от схождений месячных,
And with the precious fruits of the sun, —And with the precious yield of the moons;
15 и от верха гор начала, и от верха холмов вечных,
And with the chief of the ancient mountains, —And with the precious things of the age-abiding hills;
16 и по времени земли исполнения: и приятная Явившемуся в купине, да приидут на главу Иосифу, и на версе прославивыйся в братии.
And with the precious things of the earth and its fulness, And with the goodwill of One who dwelt in a thorn-bush.—Let it come on the head of Joseph, And on the crown of the head of him who was consecrated among his brethren.
17 Первородный юнца доброта его, рози единорога рози его: ими языки избодет вкупе даже до края земли: сия тмы Ефремовы, и сия тысящи Манассиины.
His firstborn ox, be an honour to him. And the horns of a buffalo, be his horns, With them, let him thrust, peoples, All at once, to the ends of the earth, —Yea, [with] these, the myriads of Ephraim, And, [with] those, the thousands of Manasseh.
18 И Завулону рече: возвеселися, Завулоне, во исходе твоем, и Иссахаре в селениих твоих:
And, of Zebulun, he said, Rejoice, Zebulun in thy going out, —And [thou], Issachar in thy tents:
19 языки потребят: и призовете тамо, и пожрете тамо жертву правды: яко богатство морское воздоит тя, и купли от язык при мори живущих.
The peoples, unto the mountain, will they call, There, will they offer the sacrifices of righteousness, —For, the abundance of the seas, will they suck, Hidden treasures of the sand.
20 И Гаду рече: благословен разширяяй Гада: яко лев почи, сокрушивый мышцу и князя:
And, of Gad, he said: Blessed, be he that hath made room for Gad, —As a lioness, hath he laid himself down, And hath torn an arm likewise the crown of the head;
21 и виде начатки своя, яко тамо разделися земля, князей собранных вкупе с началники людскими: правду Господь сотвори и суд Свой со Израилем.
And hath provided a first part for himself, For, there, a commander’s portion hath been hid, —So he cometh with the heads of the people, The righteousness of Yahweh, he executeth, And his regulations, with Israel.
22 И Дану рече: Дан, скимен львов, и изскочит от Васана.
And, of Dan, he said, Dan, is a lion’s whelp, —He leapeth out of Bashan.
23 И Неффалиму рече: Неффалиму насыщение приятных, и да насытится благословением от Господа: море и юг наследит.
And, of Naphtali, he said, O Naphtali! satisfied with favour, And full with the blessing of Yahweh, —The west and the sunny south, do thou possess.
24 И Асиру рече: благословен от чад Асир, и будет приятен братии своей: омочит в елей ногу свою:
And, of Asher, he said, Most blessed of sons, be Asher, —Let him have the goodwill of his brethren, And let him dip, in oil, his foot:
25 железо и медь сапог его будет, и аки дни твоя крепость твоя.
Iron and bronze, be thy sandals, And, as thy days, be thy strength.
26 Несть якоже Бог Возлюбленнаго: восходяй на небо помощник твой, и великолепый в тверди:
There is none like GOD, O Jeshurun, —Riding upon the heavens to thy help, —And for his own majesty, on the skies;
27 и покрыет тя Божие начало, и под крепостию мышцей вечных: и отженет от лица твоего врага, глаголя: да погибнеши:
Above, is the God of aforetime, And, beneath, are the Arms of the ages, —So he driveth before thee the foe, And doth say—Destroy!
28 и вселится Израиль уповая един на земли Иаковли в вине и пшенице: и небо ему облачно росою.
Thus hath Israel settled down securely, Alone, the fountain of Jacob, Within a land both of corn and new wine, —His heaven also droppeth down dew.
29 Блажен еси, Израилю: кто подобен тебе, людие спасаемии от Господа? Защитит помощник твой, и мечь хвала твоя: и солжут тебе врази твои, и ты на выю их наступиши.
How happy art thou, O Israel! Who is like unto thee, O people victorious in Yahweh? Thy helpful shield, who also is thy majestic sword, —So that thy foes come cringing unto thee, And, thou, upon their heights, dost march along.
