Книга пророка Исаии 64
1 Аще отверзеши небо, трепет приимут от Тебе горы и растают,
Oh that thou mightest rend the heavens, come down: at thy presence would mountains [then] melt away.
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 fire is kindled on brushwood, as water is made to bubble up by fire—to make thy name known to thy adversaries, that at thy presence nations might tremble!
3 егда сотвориши славная, трепет приимут от Тебе горы.
[As] when thou didst fearful deeds which we had not looked for, thou camest down, [while] at thy presence mountains melted away;
4 От века не слышахом, ниже очи наши видеша бога, разве Тебе, и дела Твоя, яже сотвориши ждущым милости.
Yea! what from the beginning of the world men had not heard, not perceived by their hearing; no eye [also] had seen a god beside thee, who could do [the like] for the one that waiteth for him.
5 Милость бо срящет творящих правду, и пути Твоя помянутся: се, Ты разгневался еси, и мы согрешихом.
Thou acceptest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou wast wroth, for we had sinned on them continually; and can we thus 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 become like an unclean man all of us, and like a soiled garment, all our righteousness; and we wither like a leaf all of us; and our iniquities, like the wind, will bear 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 himself up to lay hold of thee; for thou hast hidden thy face from us, and hast let us melt away, through the force of our iniquities.
8 И ныне, Господи, Отец наш еси Ты, мы же брение, дела руку Твоею вси:
But now, O Lord, our father art thou; we are the clay, and thou our fashioner; and the work of thy hand are we all.
9 не прогневайся на ны зело и не помяни во время беззаконий наших, и ныне призри, яко людие Твои вси мы.
Be not wroth, O Lord, so very greatly, and do not for ever remember [our] iniquity: behold, look, we beseech thee, thy people are we all.
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 desolate place.
11 дом святый наш и слава, юже благословиша отцы наши, бысть огнем пожжен, и вся славная наша купно падоша.
Our holy and beautiful house where our fathers praised thee, is burnt up with fire; and all our costly things are become ruins.
12 И о всех сих терпел еси, Господи, и молчал, и смирил еси ны зело.
Wilt thou for these things refrain thyself, O Lord? wilt thou be silent, and afflict us so very greatly?
