< Книга пророка Исаии 64 >
1 Аще отверзеши небо, трепет приимут от Тебе горы и растают,
Oh, that Thou wouldest rend the heavens, that Thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might quake at Thy presence,
2 яко тает воск от лица огня, и попалит огнь супостаты, и явлено будет имя Твое в сопротивных Твоих: от лица Твоего языцы возмятутся:
As when fire kindleth the brush-wood, and the fire causeth the waters to boil; to make Thy name known to Thine adversaries, that the nations might tremble at Thy presence,
3 егда сотвориши славная, трепет приимут от Тебе горы.
When Thou didst tremendous things which we looked not for — Oh that Thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might quake at Thy presence! —
4 От века не слышахом, ниже очи наши видеша бога, разве Тебе, и дела Твоя, яже сотвориши ждущым милости.
And whereof from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen a God beside Thee, who worketh for him that waiteth for Him.
5 Милость бо срящет творящих правду, и пути Твоя помянутся: се, Ты разгневался еси, и мы согрешихом.
Thou didst take away him that joyfully worked righteousness, those that remembered Thee in Thy ways — behold, Thou wast wroth, and we sinned — upon them have we stayed of old, that we might be saved.
6 Сего ради заблудихом и быхом яко нечисти вси мы, якоже порт нечистыя вся правда наша, и отпадохом яко листвие беззаконий ради наших: тако ветр восхитит нас.
And we are all become as one that is unclean, and all our righteousnesses are as a polluted garment; and we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
7 И несть призываяй имя Твое и помянувый удержати Тя: яко отвратил еси лице Твое от нас и предал ны еси беззаконий ради наших.
And there is none that calleth upon Thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of Thee; for Thou hast hid Thy face from us, and hast consumed us by means of our iniquities.
8 И ныне, Господи, Отец наш еси Ты, мы же брение, дела руку Твоею вси:
But now, O LORD, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and Thou our potter, and we all are the work of Thy hand.
9 не прогневайся на ны зело и не помяни во время беззаконий наших, и ныне призри, яко людие Твои вси мы.
Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever; behold, look, we beseech Thee, we are all Thy people.
10 Град святилища Твоего бысть пуст, Сион якоже пустыня бысть, Иерусалим на проклятие:
Thy holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 дом святый наш и слава, юже благословиша отцы наши, бысть огнем пожжен, и вся славная наша купно падоша.
Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised Thee, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
12 И о всех сих терпел еси, Господи, и молчал, и смирил еси ны зело.
Wilt Thou refrain Thyself for these things, O LORD? Wilt Thou hold Thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
