Книга пророка Исаии 57
1 Видите, како праведный погибе, и никтоже не приемлет сердцем, и мужие праведнии вземлются, и никтоже разумеет: от лица бо неправды взяся праведный.
The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and godly men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
2 Будет с миром погребение его, взяся от среды.
He entereth into peace, they rest in their beds, each one that walketh in his uprightness.
3 Вы же приидите семо, сынове беззаконнии, семя прелюбодеев и блудницы:
But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot.
4 в чем услаждастеся и на кого отверзосте уста ваша? И на кого изсунусте язык ваш? Не вы ли есте чада пагубы, семя беззаконно,
Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
5 молящиися кумиром под древием частым, закалающе чада своя в дебрех посреде камения?
Ye that inflame yourselves among the terebinths, under every leafy tree; that slay the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
6 То твоя часть, сей твой жребий, и тем пролиял еси возлияния, и тем принесл еси жертвы: о сих убо не разгневаюся ли?
Among the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion; they, they are thy lot; even to them hast thou poured a drink-offering, thou hast offered a meal-offering. Should I pacify Myself for these things?
7 На горе высоце и превознесенне, тамо твое ложе, и тамо вознесл еси требы твоя:
Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou set thy bed; thither also wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.
8 и за подвоями дверий твоих положил еси память твою: мыслил еси, яко аще от Мене отступиши, более нечто возимееши: возлюбил еси спящыя с тобою,
And behind the doors and the posts hast thou set up thy symbol; for thou hast uncovered, and art gone up from Me, thou hast enlarged thy bed, and chosen thee of them whose bed thou lovedst, whose hand thou sawest.
9 и умножил еси блужение твое с ними, и многи сотворил, иже далече от тебе, и послал еси послы за пределы твоя, и смирился еси даже до ада. (Sheol h7585)
And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thine ambassadors far off, even down to the nether-world. (Sheol h7585)
10 Многими путьми твоими трудился еси, и не рекл еси: престану крепящься, яко сотворил еси сия, сего ради не помолился ми еси ты.
Thou wast wearied with the length of thy way; yet saidst thou not: 'There is no hope'; thou didst find a renewal of thy strength, therefore thou wast not affected.
11 Кого благопочет убоялся еси, и солгал Ми, и не помянул еси Мене, ниже приял Мя еси во ум, ниже в сердце твое? И Аз тя видя, презираю, и не убоялся еси Мене.
And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not.
12 И аз возвещу правду твою и злобы твоя, яже не успеют тебе:
I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also — they shall not profit thee.
13 егда возопиеши, да избавят тя во печалех твоих: сия бо вся ветр возмет, и отнесет буря: а держащиися Мене стяжут землю и наследят гору святую Мою.
When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.
14 И рекут: очистите пред лицем его пути и отимите претыкания от пути людий Моих.
And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people.
15 Сия глаголет Господь Вышний, Иже живет во высоких во век, Святый во святых имя Ему, Вышний, во святых почиваяй, и малодушным даяй долготерпение и даяй живот сокрушеным сердцем:
For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
16 не во век отмщу вам, ни всегда гневатися буду на вы: дух бо от Мене изыдет, и всякое дыхание Аз сотворих.
For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit that enwrappeth itself is from Me, and the souls which I have made.
17 За грех мало что опечалих его и поразих его и отвратих лице Мое от него: и опечалися и пойде дряхл во путех своих.
For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth and smote him, I hid Me and was wroth; and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.
18 Пути его видех и изцелих его, и утеших его и дах ему утешение истинно,
I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners.
19 мир на мир далече и близ сущым: и рече Господь: изцелю я.
Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.
20 Неправеднии же возволнуются и почити не возмогут.
But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it cannot rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 Несть радоватися нечестивым, рече Господь Бог.
There is no peace, saith my God concerning the wicked.
