Книга пророка Исаии 41
1 Обновляйтеся ко Мне, острови князи бо изменят крепость: да приближатся и да глаголют вкупе, тогда суд да возвещают.
"Keep silent before me, islands, and let the peoples renew their strength. Let them come near, then let them speak. Let's meet together for judgment.
2 Кто возстави от восток правду, призва ю к ногам своим, и пойдет? Даст пред языки, и цари ужасит: и повержет на землю мечы их, и аки стеблие отвержени луцы их,
Who has raised up one from the east? Whom he called to his foot in righteousness? He hands over nations to him, and makes him rule over kings. He gives them like the dust to his sword, like the driven stubble to his bow.
3 и проженет я, и пройдет с миром путь ног его.
He pursues them, and passes by safely, Even by a way that he had not gone with his feet.
4 Кто содела и сотвори сия, призва ю призываяй ю от начала родов. Аз Бог первый, и в грядущая Аз есмь.
Who has worked and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I, YHWH, the first, and with the last, I am he."
5 Видеша языцы и убояшася, концы земнии приближишася и приидоша вкупе.
The coastlands have seen, and fear. The farthest parts of the earth tremble. They approach, and come.
6 Судяй кийждо ближнему, и брату помощи, и речет:
Everyone helps his neighbor. They say to their brothers, "Be strong."
7 превозможе муж древоделатель и ковачь бияй млатом, вкупе проковаяй: овогда убо речет: спаяние добро есть, утвердиша я гвоздьми, положат я, и не подвигнутся.
So the carpenter encourages the goldsmith. He who smoothes with the hammer encourages him who strikes the anvil, saying of the soldering, "It is good;" and he fastens it with nails, that it might not totter.
8 Ты же, Израилю, рабе Мой, Иакове, егоже избрах, семя Авраамле, егоже возлюбих,
"But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham my friend,
9 егоже поях от конец земли, и от стражб ея призвах тя, и рекох ти: раб Мой еси, избрах тя, и не оставих тебе:
you whom I have taken hold of from places far away on the earth, and summoned from its border, and said to you, 'You are my servant, I have chosen you and not rejected you.'
10 не бойся, с тобою бо есмь, не прельщаю: Аз бо есмь Бог твой, укрепивый тя, и помогох ти, и утвердих тя десницею Моею праведною:
Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
11 се, постыдятся и посрамятся вси сопротивляющиися тебе, будут бо яко не сущии, и погибнут вси соперницы твои:
Look, all those who are incensed against you will be disappointed and confounded. Those who strive with you will be like nothing, and shall perish.
12 взыщеши их, и не обрящеши человеков, иже поругаются тебе: будут бо аки не бывшии и не будут ратующии тебе.
You will seek them, and won't find them, even those who contend with you. Those who war against you will be as nothing, as a non-existent thing.
13 Яко Аз Бог твой держай десницу твою, глаголяй тебе:
For I, YHWH your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, 'Do not be afraid. I will help you.'
14 не бойся, Иакове, малый Израилю, Аз помогох ти, глаголет Бог твой, Избавляяй тя Святый Израилев:
Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel. I will help you," says YHWH, "and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 се, сотворих тя аки колеса колесничная новая, стирающая аки пила, и сотреши горы, и истончиши холмы, и аки прах положиши,
Look, I have made you into a new sharp threshing instrument with teeth. You will thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and will make the hills like chaff.
16 и извееши, и ветр возмет я, и буря развеет я: ты же возвеселишися во Святых Израилевых.
You will winnow them, and the wind will carry them away, and the whirlwind will scatter them. You will rejoice in YHWH. You will glory in the Holy One of Israel.
17 И возрадуются убозии и неимущии: поищут бо воды, и не будет, язык их от жажди изсше. Аз Господь Бог, Аз услышу их, Бог Израилев, и не оставлю их,
The poor and needy seek water, and there is none. Their tongue fails for thirst. I, YHWH, will answer them. I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.
18 но отверзу на горах реки и среди поля источники, сотворю пустыню в луги водныя и жаждущую землю в водотечы,
I will open rivers on the bare heights, and springs in the midst of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
19 положу в безводную землю кедр и смерчие, и мирсину и кипарис и тополю:
I will put cedar, acacia, myrtle, and oil trees in the wilderness. I will set fir trees, pine, and box trees together in the desert;
20 да узрят и уразумеют, и помыслят и уведят вкупе, яко рука Господня сотвори сия вся, и Святый Израилев показа.
that they may see, know, consider, and understand together, that the hand of YHWH has done this, and the Holy One of Israel has created it.
21 Приближается суд ваш, глаголет Господь Бог: приближишася совети ваши, глаголет Царь Иаковль.
Produce your cause," says YHWH. "Bring forth your strong reasons," says the King of Jacob.
22 Да приближатся и возвестят вам, яже сбудутся, или яже прежде быша, рцыте: и приставим ум и уразумеем, что последняя и будущая: рцыте нам,
"Let them come near and declare to us what shall happen. Declare the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or show us things to come.
23 возвестите нам грядущая на последок, и увемы, яко бози есте: благо сотворите и зло сотворите, и почудимся и узрим вкупе.
Declare the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods. Yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and see it together.
24 Яко откуду есте вы, и откуду дело ваше? От земли мерзость избраша вас.
Look, you are of nothing, and your work is of nothing. He who chooses you is an abomination.
25 Аз же возставих, иже от севера и иже от восток солнечных прозовутся именем Моим: да приидут князи, и яко брение скудельника и яко скудельник топчущь брение, тако попрани будете.
"I have raised up one from the north, and he has come; from the rising of the sun, one who calls on my name; and he shall come on rulers as on mortar, and as the potter treads clay.
26 Кто бо возвестит, яже исперва, да увемы, яже напреди, и речем, яко истинна суть? Несть предглаголющаго, ни слышащаго словес ваших.
Who has declared it from the beginning, that we may know? And before, that we may say, 'He is right?' Surely, there is no one who declares. Surely, there is no one who shows. Surely, there is no one who hears your words.
27 Начало Сиону дам и Иерусалима утешу на пути.
I am the first to say to Zion, 'Look, look at them;' and I will give one who brings good news to Jerusalem.
28 От язык бо, се, ни един и от кумир их несть возвещаяй. И аще вопрошу их, откуду есте? Не отвещают ми.
When I look, there is no man; even among them there is no counselor who, when I ask of them, can answer a word.
29 Суть бо творящии вас и всуе прельщающии вас.
Look, all of them, their works are vanity and nothing. Their molten images are wind and confusion.
