Книга пророка Исаии 29
1 Горе граду Ариилу, наньже Давид воева. Соберите жита от года до года, снесте бо вкупе с Моавом:
Woe to Ariel! Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add year to year; let the feasts come around;
2 озлоблю бо Ариила, и будет крепость его и богатство Мне:
then I will distress Ariel, and there will be mourning and lamentation. She shall be to me as an altar hearth.
3 и обсяду тя аки Давид, и поставлю окрест тебе острог, и согражду столпы.
I will encamp against you all around you, and will lay siege against you with posted troops. I will raise siege works against you.
4 И смирятся словеса твоя до земли, и в землю внидут словеса твоя: и будет глас твой аки гласящих от земли, и ко земли изнеможет глас твой.
You will be brought down, and will speak out of the ground. Your speech will mumble out of the dust. Your voice will be as of one who has a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and your speech will whisper out of the dust.
5 И будет яко персть от колесе богатство нечестивых, и аки прах летяй множество утесняющих тя, и будет аки черта внезапу от Господа Саваофа.
But the multitude of your foes will be like fine dust, and the multitude of the ruthless ones like chaff that blows away. Yes, it will be in an instant, suddenly.
6 Присещение бо будет со громом и с трусом и гласом великим, буря несома и пламень огненный поядаяй.
She will be visited by the LORD of Hosts with thunder, with earthquake, with great noise, with whirlwind and storm, and with the flame of a devouring fire.
7 И будет аки соние видяй во сне нощию, богатство всех языков, елицы воеваша на Ариила, и вси, иже воеваша на Иерусалима, и вси собраннии нань и озлобляющии его.
The multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all who fight against her and her stronghold, and who distress her, will be like a dream, a vision of the night.
8 И будут аки во сне ядущии и пиющии, и воставшым, тощь их сон: и якоже во сне жаждай аки пияй, воспрянув же еще жаждет, душа же его вотще надеяся: тако будет богатство всех языков, елицы воеваша на гору Сионю.
It will be like when a hungry man dreams, and behold, he eats; but he awakes, and his hunger isn’t satisfied; or like when a thirsty man dreams, and behold, he drinks; but he awakes, and behold, he is faint, and he is still thirsty. The multitude of all the nations that fight against Mount Zion will be like that.
9 Разслабейте и ужаснитеся, и упийтеся не сикером, ни вином,
Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 яко напои вас Господь духом умиления, и смежит очи их и пророков их и князей их, видящих сокровенная.
For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets; and he has covered your heads, the seers.
11 И будут вам вся сия словеса, аки словеса книги запечатленныя сея, юже аще дадут человеку ведущему писания, глаголюще: прочти сие. И речет: не могу прочести, запечатленна бо.
All vision has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one who is educated, saying, “Read this, please;” and he says, “I can’t, for it is sealed;”
12 И дастся книга сия в руце человеку не ведущему писания, и речется ему: прочти сие. И речет: не вем писания.
and the book is delivered to one who is not educated, saying, “Read this, please;” and he says, “I can’t read.”
13 И рече Господь: приближаются Мне людие сии усты своими и устнами своими почитают Мя, сердце же их далече отстоит от Мене: всуе же почитают Мя, учаще заповедем человеческим и учением.
The Lord said, “Because this people draws near with their mouth and honors me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which has been taught;
14 Сего ради се, Аз приложу, еже преселити люди сия, и преставлю я, и погублю премудрость премудрых и разум разумных сокрыю.
therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will be hidden.”
15 Горе творящым глубоко совет, а не Господем: горе в тайне совет творящым, и будут во тме дела их, и рекут: кто ны виде, и кто ны уразумеет, яже мы творим?
Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from the LORD, and whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, “Who sees us?” and “Who knows us?”
16 Не якоже ли брение скудельника вменитеся? Еда речет здание создавшему е: не ты мя создал еси? Или творение сотворшему: не разумно мя сотворил еси?
You turn things upside down! Should the potter be thought to be like clay, that the thing made should say about him who made it, “He didn’t make me;” or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?
17 Не еще ли мало, и приложится Ливан, аки гора Хермель, и Хермель в дубраву вменится?
Isn’t it yet a very little while, and Lebanon will be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field will be regarded as a forest?
18 И услышат в день оный глусии словеса книги (сея), и иже во тме и иже во мгле очи слепых узрят.
In that day, the deaf will hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind will see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
19 И возрадуются нищии ради Господа в веселии, и отчаявшиися человецы исполнятся веселия.
The humble also will increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 Изчезе беззаконник, и погибе гордый, и потребишася вси беззаконнующии во злобе
For the ruthless is brought to nothing, and the scoffer ceases, and all those who are alert to do evil are cut off—
21 и творящии согрешати человеки во слове: всем же обличающым во вратех претыкание положат, понеже совратиша в неправдах праведнаго.
who cause a person to be indicted by a word, and lay a snare for one who reproves in the gate, and who deprive the innocent of justice with false testimony.
22 Сего ради тако глаголет Господь на дом Иаковль, егоже определи от Авраама: не ныне постыдится Иаков, ниже ныне лице свое изменит Израиль:
Therefore the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, says concerning the house of Jacob: “Jacob shall no longer be ashamed, neither shall his face grow pale.
23 но егда увидят чада их дела Моя, Мене ради освятят имя Мое и освятят Святаго Иаковля, и Бога Израилева убоятся.
But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in the middle of him, they will sanctify my name. Yes, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 И уразумеют заблуждающии духом смысл, и ропщущии научатся послушати, и языцы немотствующии научатся глаголати мир.
They also who err in spirit will come to understanding, and those who grumble will receive instruction.”
