Книга пророка Исаии 23
1 Плачитеся, корабли Кархидонстии, яко погибе, и ктому не идут от земли Китиейския, отведеся пленен.
The doom of Tyre. Wail, ye ships of Tharshish; for it is laid waste, without house, without entrance: from the land of Kittim hath it been revealed to them.
2 Кому подобни быша живущии во острове, купцы Финичестии, преходящии море?
Be silent, ye inhabitants of the coast-land: the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea [formerly] filled thee.
3 В воде мнозе семя купеческо, аки жатве вносимей купцы язычестии.
And on mighty waters [came] the seed of Shichor, the harvest of the stream, as her revenue; and she became the mart of nations.
4 Усрамися, Сидоне, рече море. Крепость же морская рече: не болех, ни породих, ни вскормих юнош, ниже вознесох девиц.
Be ashamed, O Zion; for spoken hath the sea, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I travailed not, nor brought forth children, neither did I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
5 Егда же слышано будет во Египте, приимет я болезнь о Тире.
As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they tremble at the report of Tyre.
6 Идите в Кархидон, плачитеся, живущии во острове сем.
Pass ye over to Tharshish; wail, ye inhabitants of the coast-land.
7 Не сие ли бе величание вам исперва, прежде неже предану быти ему?
Is this your fate, ye of the joyous [city]? she whose antiquity is of ancient days—her own feet shall carry 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 resolved this against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth?
9 Господь Саваоф совеща разсыпати всякую гордыню славных и обезчестити всякое славное на земли.
The Lord hath resolved it, to dishonor the pride of all ornament, to make of light esteem all the honorable of the earth.
10 Делай землю твою, ибо корабли ктому не приидут от Кархидона.
Pass through thy land as a stream, O daughter of Tharshish: there is no more strength.
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 kingdoms; the Lord hath given a command against Canaan, to subvert its strongholds.
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 longer rejoice any more, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to the Kittim; also 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 people which was not, Asshur founded it for the dwellers in the wilderness—they have set up their watchtowers, have overthrown its palaces, have rendered it a heap of ruins.
14 Плачитеся, корабли Кархидонстии, яко погибе твердыня ваша.
Wail, ye ships of Tharshish; 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 on that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, like the days of one king: at the end of seventy years shall it happen to Tyre as in the song of the harlot.
16 Возми гусли, обыди град, блудница забвеная, добре погуди, много воспой, да память твоя будет.
“Take the harp, go round about the city, thou forgotten harlot; make sweet music, sing many songs, in order 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 visit 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 holy to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; but for those that dwell before the Lord shall her gain be, to eat to fulness, and for magnificent clothing.
