Книга пророка Исаии 23
1 Плачитеся, корабли Кархидонстии, яко погибе, и ктому не идут от земли Китиейския, отведеся пленен.
The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in; from the land of Kittim it is revealed to them.
2 Кому подобни быша живущии во острове, купцы Финичестии, преходящии море?
Be still, ye inhabitants of the coast-land; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 В воде мнозе семя купеческо, аки жатве вносимей купцы язычестии.
And on great waters the seed of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue; and she was the mart of nations.
4 Усрамися, Сидоне, рече море. Крепость же морская рече: не болех, ни породих, ни вскормих юнош, ниже вознесох девиц.
Be thou ashamed, O Zidon; for the sea hath spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying: 'I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I reared young men, nor brought up virgins.'
5 Егда же слышано будет во Египте, приимет я болезнь о Тире.
When the report cometh to Egypt, they shall be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
6 Идите в Кархидон, плачитеся, живущии во острове сем.
Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the coast-land.
7 Не сие ли бе величание вам исперва, прежде неже предану быти ему?
Is this your joyous city, whose feet in antiquity, in ancient days, carried her afar off to sojourn?
8 Кто сия совеща на Тира? Еда хуждший есть, или не крепкий есть? Купцы его славнии князи земли.
Who hath devised this against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?
9 Господь Саваоф совеща разсыпати всякую гордыню славных и обезчестити всякое славное на земли.
The LORD of hosts hath devised it, to pollute the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.
10 Делай землю твою, ибо корабли ктому не приидут от Кархидона.
Overflow thy land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish! there is no girdle any more.
11 И рука Твоя ктому не укрепеет по морю, разгневляющая царей. Господь Саваоф заповеда о Ханаане, еже погубити крепость его.
He hath stretched out His hand over the sea, He hath shaken the kingdoms; the LORD hath given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds thereof;
12 И рекут: ктому не приложите укаряти и обидети дщерь Сидоню: и аще отидеши ко Китииом, ниже тамо будет тебе покой:
And He said: 'Thou shalt no more rejoice.' O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Zidon, arise, pass over to Kittim; even there shalt thou have no rest.
13 и в землю Халдейску, но и та опустела от Ассириан, яко стена ея падеся.
Behold, the land of the Chaldeans — this is the people that was not, when Asshur founded it for shipmen — they set up their towers, they overthrew the palaces thereof; it is made a ruin.
14 Плачитеся, корабли Кархидонстии, яко погибе твердыня ваша.
Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste.
15 И будет в той день, оставлен будет Тир седмьдесят лет, якоже время (единаго) царя, яко время человеческо: и по седмидесятих летех будет Тир яко песнь блудницы.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king; after the end of seventy years it shall fare with Tyre as in the song of the harlot:
16 Возми гусли, обыди град, блудница забвеная, добре погуди, много воспой, да память твоя будет.
Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot long forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
17 И будет по седмидесятих летех, присещение сотворит Бог Тиру, и паки возставится на прежднее и будет торжище всем царствам вселенныя на лицы земли.
And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will remember Tyre, and she shall return to her hire, and shall have commerce with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 И будет его купля и мзда свято Господеви, не им собрано будет, но живущым пред Господем, вся купля его, ясти и пити и наполнитися, и в сытость, на память пред Господем.
And her gain and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD; it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her gain shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat their fill, and for stately clothing.
