Книга пророка Иезекииля 9
1 И возопи во ушы мои гласом великим, глаголя: приближися отмщение града: и кийждо имеяше сосуды истребления в руце своей.
Then he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying, “Cause those who are in charge of the city to draw near, each man with his destroying weapon in his hand.”
2 И се, шесть мужей идоша от пути врат высоких зрящих на север, и коемуждо секира (погубления) в руце его: и муж един посреде их облечен в подир, и пояс от сапфира о чреслех его: и внидоша и сташа близ жертвенника медянаго.
Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand. One man in the middle of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. They went in, and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 И слава Бога Израилева взыде от Херувимов сущая на них в непокровенное дому: и призва мужа оболчена в подир, иже имеяше на чреслех своих пояс.
The glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house; and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn by his side.
4 И рече Господь к нему: пройди среде града Иерусалима и даждь знамения на лица мужей стенящих и болезнующих о всех беззакониих бывающих среде их.
Yahweh said to him, “Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done within it.”
5 И сим рече, слышащу мне: идите во град вслед его, изсецыте и не пощадите очима вашима и не помилуйте:
To the others he said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him, and strike. Don’t let your eye spare, neither have pity.
6 старца и юношу и деву, и младенцы и жены избийте в потребление: а ко всем, на нихже есть знамение, не прикасайтеся: от освященных Моих начните. И начаша от мужей старых, иже беша внутрь в дому.
Kill utterly the old man, the young man, the virgin, little children and women; but don’t come near any man on whom is the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.” Then they began at the old men who were before the house.
7 И рече к ним: оскверните дом, и наполните пути мертвецев исходяще, и изсецыте (сущих во граде).
He said to them, “Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” They went out, and struck in the city.
8 И бысть внегда сечаху их, остах аз и падох ниц, и возопих и рех: горе, (горе, ) о, люте мне, Адонаю Господи! Еда потребляеши Ты останки Израилевы, егда разливаеши ярость Твою на Иерусалим?
While they were killing, and I was left, I fell on my face, and cried, and said, “Ah Lord Yahweh! Will you destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out of your wrath on Jerusalem?”
9 И рече ко мне: неправда дому Израилева и Иудина возвеличися зело зело, яко наполнися земля людий многих, и град наполнися неправд и нечистот, яко реша: оставил есть Господь землю и не видит Господь.
Then he said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perversion; for they say, ‘Yahweh has forsaken the land, and Yahweh doesn’t see.’
10 И Аз есмь, и не пощадит око Мое, ни помилую, пути их на главы их дах.
As for me also, my eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way on their head.”
11 И се, муж, оболченый в подир и препоясан поясом о чреслех своих, отвещаваше, глаголя: сотворих, якоже заповедал ми еси.
Behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, “I have done as you have commanded me.”
