Книга пророка Исаии 63
1 Кто Сей пришедый от Едома, червлены ризы Его от Восора, Сей красен во утвари, зело с крепостию? Аз глаголю правду и суд спасения.
[I ask], “Who is this who is coming from Bozrah [city] in Edom, whose clothes are stained red [from blood]? Who is this who is wearing beautiful robes?” [He replies], “It is I, [Yahweh], declaring that I have defeated [your enemies], and I am able to rescue you!”
2 Почто червлены ризы Твоя и одежды Твоя яко от истоптания точила?
[I ask him], “What are those red spots on your clothes? It appears that [SIM] you have been treading/tramping on grapes [to make wine].”
3 Исполнен истоптания, и от язык несть мужа со Мною: и попрах я яростию Моею, и сотрох я яко персть, и сведох кровь их в землю и вся ризы Моя омочих:
[He replies], “I have been treading on [my enemies, not] on grapes. I did it myself; no one helped me. I punished them because I was very angry with them, and my clothes became stained with their blood.
4 день бо воздаяния прииде на них, и лето избавления приспе:
I did that because it was time for me [SYN] to get revenge; it was time to rescue [my people from those who had oppressed them].
5 и воззрех, и не бе помощника: и помыслих, и никтоже заступи: и избави я мышца Моя, и ярость Моя наста:
I searched for someone who would enable me to help [my people], but I was amazed/shocked that there was no one to help me. So I defeated [their enemies] with my own power/strength [MTY]; I was able [PRS] to do that because of my being very angry.
6 и попрах я гневом Моим и сведох кровь их в землю.
Because I was extremely angry, I punished the nations; I caused them [to stagger like] [MET] drunk men, and I caused their blood to pour out on the ground.”
7 Милость Господню помянух, добродетели Господни во всех, имиже нам воздает: Господь, судия благ дому Израилеву, наводит нам по милости Своей и по множеству правды Своея.
I will tell about Yahweh faithfully loving his people, and I will praise him for all that he has done. Yahweh has done good things for [us] people [MTY] of Israel; he has acted mercifully toward us, and he has steadfastly and faithfully loved us.
8 И рече: не людие ли Мои? Чада, и не отвергнутся. И бысть им во спасение и всякия скорби их.
Yahweh said, “These are my people; they will not deceive me;” so he rescued us.
9 Не ходатай, ниже Ангел, но Сам Господь спасе их, зане любит их и щадит их: Сам избави их и восприят их и вознесе их во вся дни века.
When we had many troubles, he was sad [also]. He sent his angel to rescue us. Because he loved us and was merciful to us, he saved us; [it was as though] he picked our ancestors up and carried them all those years [during which they were oppressed in Egypt].
10 Тии же не покоришася и разгневаша Духа Святаго Его, и обратися им на вражду, и Той воева на ня.
But we rebelled against him, and we caused his Holy Spirit to be sad. So he became [like] [MET] an enemy who fought against us.
11 И помяну дни вечныя: где возведый от земли пастыря овец Своих? Где есть вложивый в них Духа Святаго?
Then we thought about [what happened] long ago, during the time when Moses led [our ancestors out of Egypt]. We cried out, “Where is the one who brought our ancestors through the [Red] Sea while Moses led them? Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit to be among our ancestors?
12 Возведшая десницею Моисеа, мышца славы Его раздели воду пред лицем его сотворити Ему имя вечно,
Where is the one who showed his glorious power [MTY], and caused the water to separate when Moses lifted his arm above it, with the result that he will be honored/praised forever?
13 проведе их сквозе бездну, якоже коня сквозе пустыню, и не утрудишася,
Where is the one who led our ancestors while they walked through the sea bed? They were like [SIM] horses that were racing along and never stumbled.
14 и яко скоты по полю, и сниде Дух от Господа и настави их: тако провел еси люди Твоя сотворити Тебе Самому имя славно.
They were like [SIM] cattle that walk down into a valley [to rest], and the Spirit of Yahweh enabled them to go to a place where they could rest. Yahweh, you led your people, and you caused yourself [MTY] to (get a wonderful reputation/be greatly honored).”
15 Обратися, Господи, от небесе и виждь от дому святаго Твоего и славы Твоея: где есть ревность Твоя и крепость Твоя? Где есть множество милости Твоея и щедрот Твоих, яко терпел еси нам?
[Yahweh], look down from heaven; look down on us from your holy and glorious home. You were [RHQ] previously very concerned [about us], and you acted powerfully [to help us]. But it seems that you do not act mercifully and zealously for us any more.
16 Ты бо еси Отец наш, понеже Авраам не уведе нас, и Израиль не позна нас, но Ты, Господи, Отец наш, избави ны, исперва имя Твое на нас есть.
You are our father. Abraham does not know [what is happening to] us, and Jacob is not concerned about us, [either], but Yahweh, you are our father; you rescued us long ago.
17 Что уклонил еси нас, Господи, от пути Твоего? И ожесточил еси сердца наша, еже не боятися Тебе? Обратися ради раб Твоих, ради племен достояния Твоего,
Yahweh, why did you cause us to wander away from your road [RHQ]? Why did you cause us to be stubborn, with the result that we no [longer] revere you [RHQ]? Help us like you did previously, because we are the people who serve you and belong to you.
18 да (поне) мало наследим горы святыя Твоея. Противницы наши попраша святыню Твою:
We, your holy people, possessed your sacred temple for only a short time, [and now] our enemies have destroyed it.
19 быхом яко исперва, егда не владел еси нами, ниже бе наречено имя Твое на нас.
Now it seems as though we never were ruled by you, as though we were never part of your family [MTY].
