< Книга пророка Исаии 5 >
1 Воспою ныне Возлюбленному песнь Возлюбленнаго моего винограду моему: виноград бысть Возлюбленному в розе, на месте тучне:
[Now] I will sing a song about my dear friend, and about his vineyard. The vineyard was on a very fertile hillside.
2 и ограждением оградих и окопах, и насадих лозу избранну, и создах столп посреде его, и предточилие ископах в нем, и ждах, да сотворит гроздие, и сотвори терние.
My friend plowed the ground and cleared away the stones. Then he planted very good grapevines on that ground. In the middle of the vineyard, he built a watchtower, and he dug a (winepress/pit for squeezing the grapes). Then he waited [each year] to harvest some good grapes, but the vines produced [only] sour grapes.
3 И ныне, живущии во Иерусалиме и человече Иудин, судите между Мною и виноградом Моим.
Now [this is what Yahweh says]: “You people of Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, I [am like the friend, and you are like] my vineyard; [so] you judge which of us [has done what is right].
4 Что сотворю еще винограду Моему, и не сотворих ему? Занеже ждах, да сотворит гроздие, сотвори же терние.
What more could I have done for you than what I have already done? I expected you to be doing good deeds [MET], so it is disgusting that [RHQ] you were [doing only evil things] like the vineyard that produced only sour grapes!
5 Ныне убо возвещу вам, что Аз сотворю винограду Моему: отиму ограждение его, и будет в разграбление: и разорю стену его, и будет в попрание.
[So], I will now tell you what I will do to [Judah, the place that is like] my vineyard. I will cut down the hedges, and they will be destroyed. I will tear down the walls [of the cities] and allow [wild animals] to trample the land.
6 И оставлю виноград Мой, и ктому не обрежется, ниже покопается, и взыдет на нем, якоже на лядине, терние: и облаком заповем, еже не одождити на него дождя.
I will cause it to become a wasteland where the vines are not pruned and the ground is not hoed. It will be a place where briers and thorns [DOU] grow. And I will command that no rain will fall on it.”
7 Виноград бо Господа Саваофа, дом Израилев есть, и человек Иудин новый сад возлюбленный: ждах, да сотворит суд, сотвори же беззаконие, и не правду, но вопль.
The nation of Israel is [like] [MET] the vineyard of the Commander of the armies of angels. The people of Judah are [like] the garden that was pleasing to him. He expected you to be doing what is just/fair, but instead, [what he saw was people] murdering [MTY] others. [He expected that you would be doing] righteous deeds, but instead, he heard cries from people who were being [attacked] violently.
8 Горе совокупляющым дом к дому и село к селу приближающым, да ближнему отимут что: еда вселитеся едини на земли?
Terrible things will happen to you who continually [illegally] acquire houses and fields. You force one family after another to leave their homes until you are the only ones [HYP] [still] living in the land.
9 Услышашася бо во ушесех Господа Саваофа сия: аще бо будут домове мнози, в запустение будут велицыи и добрии, и не будут живущии в них:
[But] I heard the Commander of the armies of angels solemnly declare this: “[Some day], many of those huge houses will be empty/deserted; no one will be living in those beautiful mansions.
10 идеже бо возорют десять супруг волов, сотворит корчаг един, и сеяй артавас шесть сотворит меры три.
The vines on ten acres of land will not produce enough grapes to make (six gallons/22 liters) [of juice/wine], and ten baskets of seed will produce only one basket [of grain].”
11 Горе востающым заутра и сикер гонящым, ждущым вечера: вино бо сожжет я:
Terrible things will happen to those who get up early [each] morning to begin drinking alcoholic drinks, and who stay awake until late at night [drinking a lot of wine] until they are completely drunk.
12 со гусльми бо и певницами, и тимпаны и свирельми вино пиют, на дела же Господня не взирают и дел руку Его не помышляют.
They have [big parties and provide lots of] wine. At their parties, there are [people playing] harps and lyres and tambourines and flutes, but they never think about what Yahweh does or appreciate what he has created.
13 Убо пленени быша людие мои, за еже не ведети им Господа, и множество бысть мертвых глада ради и жажди водныя.
So, my people will be (exiled/taken to other countries) [far away] because they do not know [about me]. Those who are [now very important and] honored will starve, and the other people will die from thirst.
14 И разшири ад душу свою и разверзе уста своя, еже не престати: и снидут славнии и велицыи и богатии и губителие их и веселяйся в нем: (Sheol )
[It is as though] [PRS] the place where the dead people are is eagerly looking for more Israeli people, opening its mouth to swallow them, and a huge number of people will be thrown into that place, including their leaders as well as a noisy crowd of people who enjoy living in Jerusalem. (Sheol )
15 и смирится человек, и обезчестится муж, и очи высокоглядающии смирятся.
[Yahweh] will get rid of a huge number of people; and he will humble [many more] people who [now] are proud/arrogant.
16 И вознесется Господь Саваоф в суде, и Бог Святый прославится в правде:
But the Commander of the armies of angels will be exalted/praised because of his acting justly. God will show that he is holy by doing righteous/just deeds.
17 и упасутся расхищеннии яко юнцы, и пустыни плененных агнцы поядят.
Then lambs and fat sheep will [be able to] find good grass to eat, [even] among the ruins [of the houses of rich people].
18 Горе привлачающым грехи яко ужем долгим, и яко ига юнична ременем беззакония своя,
Some people constantly tell lies, and [it is as though] they are dragging behind them the wrong things that they have done. Terrible things will happen to them!
19 глаголющым: скоро да приближатся, яже сотворит, да видим, и да приидет совет Святаго Израилева, да разумеем.
They [make fun of God and] say [to him, ] “Go ahead, do something [to punish us]! We want to see what you will do. You, the Holy One of Israel, should do what you are planning to do, because we want to know what it is.”
20 Горе глаголющым лукавое доброе, и доброе лукавое, полагающым тму свет, и свет тму, полагающым горькое сладкое, и сладкое горькое.
Terrible things will happen to those who say that evil is good, and that good is evil, that darkness is light and that light is darkness, that what is bitter is sweet and what is sweet is bitter.
21 Горе, иже мудри в себе самих и пред собою разумни.
Terrible things will happen to those who think that they are wise and that they (are very clever/know everything).
22 Горе крепким вашым, вино пиющым, и вельможам растворяющым сикер,
Terrible things will happen to those who [think that] [IRO] they are great/heroes because they are able to drink [lots of] wine, and boast about being able to mix good alcoholic drinks.
23 оправдающым нечестива даров ради, и еже есть праведное праведнаго вземлющым от него.
If people offer them bribes in order that they will enable wicked people not to be punished, they accept those bribes, and they cause people who are innocent to be punished.
24 Сего ради якоже сгорит трость от углия огненнаго и сожжется от пламене разгоревшагося, корень их яко персть будет, и цвет их яко прах взыдет: не восхотеша бо закона Господа Саваофа, но слово Святаго Израилева раздражиша.
Therefore, just like [SIM] fires burn up stubble and dry grass shrivels up and quickly burns in flames, [it will be as though] those people have roots that will rot and have flowers that will wither. [That will happen] because they rejected the laws of the Commander of the armies of angels; they have despised the messages of the Holy One of Israel.
25 И возярися гневом Господь Саваоф на люди Своя, и наложи руку Свою на них, и порази их: и раздражишася горы, и быша трупи их яко гной посреде пути. И во всех сих не отвратися ярость Его, но еще рука Его высока.
That is why Yahweh is [extremely] angry [with his people]; [it is as though] his hand is raised [and he is ready to smash them]. [When he does that], the mountains will shake, and the corpses of people will be scattered in the streets like [SIM] manure. But even when that happens, Yahweh will still be very angry; he will be ready to punish his people [MET] again.
26 Воздвигнет убо знамение во языцех сущих далече и позвиждет им от конец земли, и се, скоро легце грядут:
Yahweh will send a signal to summon [armies of] nations far away; [it is as though] he will whistle [to summon those soldiers who are] in very remote places on the earth. They will come very swiftly [DOU] [to Jerusalem].
27 не взалчут, ни утрудятся, ни воздремлют, ни поспят, ни распояшут поясов своих от чресл своих, ниже расторгнутся ремени сапогов их:
They will not get tired or stumble. They will not [stop to] rest or to sleep. None of their belts will be loose, and none of them will have sandals with broken straps, [so they will all be ready to fight in battles].
28 ихже стрелы остры суть, и луцы их напряжени: копыта коней их яко тверд камень вменишася, колеса колесниц их яко буря.
Their arrows will be sharp, and their bows will be ready [to shoot those arrows in a battle]. [Because their horses pull the chariots fast], sparks will shoot out from their hooves, and the wheels of the chariots will spin like a whirlwind.
29 Ярятся яко львове, и предсташа яко львичища: и имет, и возопиет яко зверь, и извержет, и не будет отемлющаго их.
They will roar like [very strong] lions [DOU] that growl and [then] pounce on the animals they want to kill and carry them off, and no one is able to rescue them.
30 И возопиет их ради в той день, яко шум моря волнующася: и воззрят на землю, и се, тма жестока в недоумении их.
[Similarly, your enemies] will roar when they see the people they are about to kill, like [SIM] the sea roars. [On that day], if someone looks across the land, he will see [only people who are in] darkness and distressed; [it will be as though] even the sunlight is hidden by dark clouds.
