Книга пророка Исаии 19
1 Се, Господь седит на облаце легце и приидет во Египет, и потрясутся рукотворенная Египетская от лица Его, и сердца их разслабнут в них.
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Egypt: “Listen to this! I, Yahweh, am coming to Egypt, riding on a fast-moving cloud. The idols in Egypt will tremble when [I appear], and the people of Egypt will be extremely afraid [IDM].
2 И востанут Египтяне на Египтяны, и воюружится человек на брата своего, и всяк на ближняго своего, востанет град на град и закон на закон.
I will cause the people of Egypt to fight against each other: men will fight against their brothers, neighbors will fight against each other, people of one city will fight against the people of another city, people of one province will fight against the people of another province.
3 И возмятется дух Египтян в них, и совет их разсыплю, и вопросят богов своих и кумиров своих, и гласящих от земли и чревоволшебников.
The people of Egypt will become very discouraged, and I will cause their plans not to be successful. They will plead with idols and sorcerers and those who talk with spirits of dead people to tell them what they should do.
4 И предам Египет в руце человеков властелей жестоких, и царие жестоцы обладати будут ими: сия глаголет Господь Саваоф.
Then I will enable someone who will treat them very cruelly to become their king [DOU].” That is what I, the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
5 И испиют Египтяне воду, яже при мори, а река оскудеет и изсхнет.
[Some day] the water in the [Nile] River will dry up, and the riverbed will become very dry [DOU].
6 И оскудеют реки и ровенницы речнии: и изсхнет весь сонм водный, и во всяцем лузе тростнем и ситнем,
The branches of the river will all dry up [DOU] The canals along the river will stink because of the rotting reeds and (bulrushes/tall grass).
7 и злак зеленый весь иже окрест реки, и все сеемое при реце посхнет ветром растленно.
All the plants along the river and all the crops will dry up; then they will blow away and disappear.
8 И возстенят рыбарие, и возстенят вси мещущии удицу в реку, и мещущии неводы и мещущии сети возрыдают.
The fishermen will throw into the river lines with hooks on them and nets, and then they will groan and be very discouraged; they will be sad [because there will be no fish in the river].
9 И студ приимет делающих лен разчесаный и делающих виссон, и будут делающии я в болезни,
Those who weave cloth from flax will not know what to do, because there will be no thread for them to weave.
10 и вси творящии сикеру опечалятся и поболят душами.
They will all despair and be very discouraged.
11 И юродиви будут князи Танесовы: мудрии царевы советницы, совет их объюродеет. Како речете царю: сынове смысленых мы, сынове царей древних?
The officials in Zoan [city in northern Egypt] are foolish. The advice that they gave to the king was worthless. Why do they continue to tell the king that they are wise, that they are descendants of wise kings who lived long ago [RHQ]?
12 Где суть ныне мудрии твои, и да возвестят тебе и рекут: что совеща Господь Саваоф на Египет?
King, (where are your wise counselors now?/You have no wise counselors now!) [RHQ] If you had any wise counselors, they could tell you what the Commander of the armies of angels has planned to do to Egypt [SAR]!
13 Оскудеша князи Танесовы, и вознесошася князи Мемфитстии, и прельстят Египта по племеном.
[Yes], the officials of Zoan have become foolish, and the leaders in Memphis [city in northern Egypt] have deceived themselves. [All] leaders of the people have (caused their people to do wrong things/led their people astray).
14 Господь бо раствори им дух прельщения, и прельстиша Египта всеми делесы своими, якоже прельщается пияный и купно блюющь.
Yahweh has caused them to be very foolish, with the result that in everything that they do, [it is as though the people of] Egypt stagger like [SIM] a drunken person staggers [and slips] in his own vomit.
15 И не будет Египтяном дела, еже бы сотворило главу и ошиб, и начало и конец.
There is no one in Egypt, rich or poor, important or unimportant, [who will be able to help them].
16 В той день будут Египтяне аки жены во страсе и трепете от лица руки Господа Саваофа, юже Той возложит на ня.
At that time, the people of Egypt will be [as helpless] as [SIM] women. They will tremble, being terrified [because they know that] the Commander of the armies of angels has raised his fist, [ready to strike/punish them].
17 И будет страна Иудейска во страх Египтяном: всяк, иже аще воспомянет ю им, убоятся совета ради, егоже совеща Господь Саваоф нань.
The people of Egypt will be afraid of the people of Judah, and anyone who mentions Judah to them will cause them to be terrified, because [that will remind them] of what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of angels, is planning to do to them.
18 В той день будет пять градов во Египте, глаголющих языком Ханаанитским и кленущихся именем Господа Саваофа: град Аседек прозовется един град.
At that time, [people in] five cities in Egypt will solemnly declare that they will serve Yahweh. They will [learn to] speak the Hebrew language. One of those cities will be called ‘City of the Sun’.
19 В той день будет жертвенник Господеви в земли Египетстей и столп в пределех его Господеви.
At that time, there will be an altar for worshiping Yahweh in the center of Egypt, and there will be a (pillar/large rock) to honor Yahweh at the border [between Egypt and Israel].
20 И будет в знамение во век Господеви в земли Египетстей: яко возопиют ко Господу на оскорбляющыя их, и послет им Господь человека, иже спасет я, судяй спасет я.
That will be a sign to indicate that the Commander of the armies of angels is worshiped in the land of Egypt. And when the people cry out to Yahweh to help them because others are (oppressing them/causing them to suffer), he will send to them someone who will defend and rescue them.
21 И познан будет Господь Египтяном: и уведят Египтяне Господа в той день и сотворят жертвы и дары, и обещают обеты Господеви и воздадят.
Yahweh will enable the people of Egypt to know who he is, and at that time they will have a close relationship with Yahweh and worship him and bring to him offerings of grain and other sacrifices. They will solemnly promise to do things for Yahweh, and they will do what they promise.
22 И поразит Господь Египтян язвою великою и изцелит их цельбою, и обратятся ко Господеви, и услышит их и изцелит их цельбою.
After Yahweh has punished Egypt, he will cause their troubles to end. The people of Egypt will turn to Yahweh, and he will listen when they plead to him [for help], and he will cause their troubles to cease.
23 В той день будет путь от Египта ко Ассирианом, и внидут Ассириане во Египет, и Египтяне пойдут ко Ассирианом, и поработают Египтяне Ассирианом.
At that time, there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. [As a result], the people of Egypt will [be able to] travel [easily] to Assyria, and the people of Assyria [will be able to travel easily] to Egypt. And the people of both countries will worship [Yahweh].
24 В той день будет Израиль третий во Египтянех и во Ассирианех, благословен на земли,
And Israel will be their ally. All three nations will be [friendly to] each other, and the people of Israel will be a blessing to the people of the entire world.
25 юже благослови Господь Саваоф, глаголя: благословени людие Мои, иже во Египте и иже во Ассириах, и наследие Мое Израиль.
The Commander of the armies of angels will bless them, saying, “[You people of] Egypt are now my people. You people of Assyria, I have established your country. You people of Israel are the people whom I have chosen to belong to me.”
