Книга пророка Иезекииля 2

1 Сие видение подобие славы Господни. И видех, и падох ниц, и слышах глас Глаголющаго, и рече ко мне: сыне человечь, стани на ноги твоя, и возглаголю тебе.

And he said to me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

2 И прииде на мя дух, и взя мя, и воздвиже мя, и постави мя на ногах моих, и слышах Его глаголюща ко мне.

And the Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me upon my feet. And I heard him who spoke to me.

3 И рече (Господь) ко мне: сыне человечь, послю тя Аз к дому Израилеву, огорчевающым Мя, иже огорчиша Мя: сами и отцы их отвергошася Мене до днешняго дне:

And he said to me, Son of man, I send thee to the sons of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.

4 и сынове жестоколичнии и твердосердечнии. Аз послю тя к тем, и речеши к ним: тако глаголет Адонаи Господь:

And the sons are impudent and stiff hearted. I send thee to them, and thou shall say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah.

5 аще убо услышат, или убоятся, зане дом огорчеваяй есть, и познают, яко пророк еси ты посреде их.

And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

6 И ты, сыне человечь, да не убоишися их, ни ужасайся от лица их: зане разсверепеют и обыдут тя окрест, посреде бо скорпиев ты живеши: словес их не убойся и от лица их не ужасайся, зане дом огорчеваяй есть:

And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with thee, and thou dwell among scorpions. Be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

7 и возглаголеши словеса Моя к ним, аще убо услышат, или убоятся, зане дом прогневаяй есть.

And thou shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, for they are most rebellious.

8 И ты, сыне человечь, послушай Глаголющаго к тебе, не буди огорчеваяй, якоже дом преогорчеваяй: отверзи уста твоя и снеждь, яже Аз даю тебе.

But thou, son of man, hear what I say to thee. Be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house. Open thy mouth, and eat that which I give thee.

9 И видех, и се, рука простерта ко мне, и в ней свиток книжный:

And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth to me, and, lo, a roll of a book was in it,

10 и разви его предо мною, и в том писана быша предняя и задняя: и вписано бяше в нем рыдание и жалость и горе.

And he spread it before me, and it was written inside and outside. And there were written in it lamentations and mourning and woe.
