Книга пророка Исаии 8
1 И рече Господь ко мне: приими себе свиток нов велик и напиши в нем писалом человечим, еже скоро пленение сотворити корыстей, приспе бо:
Then Yahweh said to me, “Make a large signboard. And write clearly on it, ‘Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz’ [which means ‘quickly (plunder/take by force) and steal everything’].”
2 и свидетели мне сотвори верны человеки, Урию иереа и Захарию сына Варахиина.
[So] I requested Uriah the [Supreme] Priest and Jeberekiah’s son Zechariah, men who were both honest/trustworthy witnesses, to watch me as I was doing that.
3 И приступих ко пророчице, и во чреве зачат и роди сына. И рече Господь мне: нарцы имя ему: скоро плени, нагло расхити,
Then I had sex with [EUP] [my wife, who was] a prophetess, and she became pregnant and [then] gave birth to a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz (which means ‘suddenly attacked, quickly conquered’),
4 зане прежде неже разумети отрочати назвати отца или матерь, приимет силу Дамаскову, и корысти Самарийския пред царем Ассирийским.
because before he is old enough to say ‘papa’ or ‘mama’, the King of Assyria will [come with his army and] quickly take away all the valuable things in Damascus and in Samaria.”
5 И приложи Господь глаголати ко мне еще, глаголя:
Yahweh spoke to me again and said, “[Tell the people of Judah, ]
6 понеже не восхотеша людие сии воды Силоамли текущия тисе, но восхотеша имети Рассона и сына Ромелиева царя над вами,
‘[I have taken good care of] you people, but you have rejected that, [thinking that] my help was very little, like [MET] the little canal through which water flows from the Gihon Spring into Jerusalem. Instead, you have been happy [to request help from] King Rezin and King Pekah.
7 сего ради се, возводит Господь на вы воду реки сильну и многу, царя Ассирийска и славу его: и взыдет на всяку дебрь вашу, и обыдет всяку стену вашу,
Therefore, I will cause the people of Judah to be attacked by [the powerful army of] the King of Assyria, which will be [like] a great flood from the [Euphrates] River. Their soldiers will [be everywhere in your country, like] a river that overflows all its banks.
8 и отимет от Иудеи человека, иже возможет главу воздвигнути, или могущаго что совершити: и будет полк его, во еже наполнити ширину страны Твоея, с нами Бог!
Those soldiers will go all over Judah— [like a river whose water] [MET] rises as high as a person’s neck. Their army will spread over the land [quickly], like an eagle, and they will cover your entire land! But I will be with you!’”
9 Разумейте, языцы, и покаряйтеся, услышите даже до последних земли: могущии, покаряйтеся: аще бо паки возможете, паки побеждени будете,
Listen, all you [people in] distant countries! [You can] prepare to attack Judah. [You can] prepare [for battle, and shout your] war-cries, but your [armies will] be crushed/shattered!
10 и иже аще совет совещаете, разорит Господь, и слово, еже аще возглаголете, не пребудет в вас, яко с нами Бог.
[You can] prepare for what you will do [to attack Judah], but what you plan to do will not happen! You will not succeed, because God is with us!
11 Тако глаголет Господь: крепкою рукою не покаряются хождению пути людий сих, глаголюще:
Yahweh strongly warned me [MTY] not to act like the [other] people in Judah did. He said to me,
12 да не когда рекут: жестоко: все бо, еже аще рекут людие сии, жестоко есть: страха же их не убойтеся, ниже возмятитеся.
“Do not say that everything that people do is conspiring/rebelling [against the government], like [other] people say, and do not (be afraid of/worry about) the things that other people are afraid of.
13 Господа Сил, Того освятите, и Той будет тебе в страх.
[I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, am the one you should consider to be holy. And I am the one you should fear, the one you should revere.
14 И аще будеши уповая на Него, будет тебе во освящение, а не якоже о камень претыкания преткнешися, ниже яко о камень падения: домове же Иаковли в пругле, и в раздолии седящии во Иерусалиме.
I will protect you(sg). [But as for] the [other] people [MTY] in Israel and Judah, I will be [like] [MET] a stone that causes people to stumble, a rock that causes them to fall down. [And as for] the people of Jerusalem, I will be [like] [MET] a trap or a snare [DOU].
15 Сего ради изнемогут в них мнози, и падут, и сокрушатся, и приближатся, и яти будут человецы в твердыни суще.
Many [people] will stumble and fall down and never get up again. They will experience great troubles; they will be captured [by their enemies].”
16 Тогда явлени будут печатлеющии закон, еже не учитися.
[So, I say to you who are my disciples], seal up this scroll on which I have written the messages that God has given to me, and give his instructions to [others] who have accompanied me.
17 И речет: пожду Бога отвращшаго лице Свое от дому Иаковля и уповая буду Нань.
I will wait to see what Yahweh [will do]. He has rejected the descendants [MTY] of Jacob, but I will confidently expect him to help me.
18 Се, аз и дети, яже ми даде Бог: и будут знамения и чудеса в дому Израилеве от Господа Саваофа, иже обитает на горе Сион.
I and the children that Yahweh has given to me are [like] signs to warn [the people of] Israel; we are warnings from the Commander of the armies of angels the one who lives [in his temple] on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem].
19 И аще рекут к вам: изыщите чревоволшебников и от земли возглашающих, тщесловующих, иже от чрева глашают, не язык ли к Богу своему взыщет? Что испытуют мертвыя о живых?
Some people may urge you(pl) to (consult/go and talk with) those who talk with the spirits of dead people or with those who say that they receive messages from those spirits. They whisper and mutter [about what we should do in the future]. But God is [RHQ] the one whom we should ask to guide us! It is ridiculous [RHQ] for people who are alive to request spirits of dead people to tell us [what we should do]!
20 Закон бо в помощь даде, да рекут не якоже слово сие, заньже не леть дары даяти.
Pay attention to God’s instructions and teaching! If people do not say things that agree with what God teaches us, [what they say is worthless]. [It is as though] those people are in darkness.
21 И приидет на вы жесток глад, и будет, егда взалчете, скорбни будете и зло речете князю и отечеству:
They will wander through the land, worried/discouraged and hungry. And when they become [very] hungry, they will become very angry. They will look up [toward heaven] and curse God and [will also] curse their king.
22 и воззрят на небо горе, и на землю низу призрят, и се, скудость тесна и тма, скорбь и теснота и тма, якоже не видети: и не оскудеет в тесноте сый даже до времене.
They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. (questioned)
