Книга пророка Исаии 9
1 Сие прежде испий, скоро твори, страно Завулоня и земле Неффалимля, и прочии при мори живущии, и об ону страну Иордана, Галилеа языков.
But there shall be no more gloom for her who was in anguish. In the former time, he brought into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; but in the latter time he has made it glorious, by the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
2 Людие ходящии во тме видеша свет велий: живущии во стране и сени смертней, свет возсияет на вы.
The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light. Those living in the land and shadow of death, on them a light has shined.
3 Множайшии людие, яже извел еси, в веселии Твоем: и возвеселятся пред тобою, якоже веселящиися в жатву, и якоже веселятся делящии корысти.
You have multiplied the nation. You have increased his joy. They rejoice before you according to the joy in harvest, as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4 Зане отятся ярем лежай на них, и жезл, иже на выи их: жезл бо истязующих разсыпа Господь, якоже в день, иже на Мадиама.
For the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you have broken as in the day of Midian.
5 Яко всякую одежду собранну лестию и ризу с примирением отдадут, и восхотят, да быша огнем сожжены были.
For all the armor of the armed man in the noisy battle, and the garments rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire.
6 Яко отроча родися нам, Сын, и дадеся нам, егоже началство бысть на раме Его: и нарицается имя Его: велика совета Ангел, Чуден, Советник, Бог крепкий, Властелин, Князь мира, Отец будущаго века: приведу бо мир на князи, мир и здравие Ему.
For to us a child is born. To us a son is given; and the government will be on his shoulders, and his name is called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 И велие началство Его, и мира Его несть предела на престоле Давидове и на царстве его, исправити е и заступити его в суде и правде, отныне и до века: ревность Господа Саваофа сотворит сия.
Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, on the throne of David, and on his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from that time on, even forever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.
8 Смерть посла Господь на Иакова, и прииде на Израиля:
Jehovah sent a word into Jacob, and it falls on Israel.
9 и уразумеют вси людие Ефремовы и живущии в Самарии, в досаждении и высоцем сердцы глаголюще:
All the people will know, including Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, who say in pride and in arrogance of heart,
10 плинфы падоша, но приидите, изсечем камение и посечем черничие и кедры, и созиждем себе столп.
"The bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stone. The sycamore fig trees have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place."
11 И разрушит Бог востающыя на гору Сионю, и враги его разсыплет:
Therefore Jehovah will set up on high against him the adversaries of Rezin, and will stir up his enemies,
12 Сирию от восток солнца и Еллины от запада солнца, поядающыя Израиля всеми усты. Во всех сих не отвратися ярость Его, но еще рука Его высока.
The Arameans in front, and the Philistines behind; and they will devour Israel with open mouth. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
13 И людие не обратишася, дондеже язвени быша, и Господа не взыскаша.
Yet the people have not turned to him who struck them, neither have they sought Jehovah of hosts.
14 И отят Господь от Израиля главу и ошиб, велика и мала, во един день:
Therefore Jehovah will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in one day.
15 старца и чудящихся лицам, сие начало: и пророка учаща беззаконная, сей ошиб.
The elder and the honorable man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.
16 И будут блажащии людий сих льстяще, и льстят, яко да поглотят я.
For those who lead this people lead them astray; and those who are led by them are destroyed.
17 Сего ради о юношах их не возвеселится Господь, и сирот их и вдовиц их не помилует: яко вси беззаконнии и лукавии, и всякая уста глаголют неправду. Во всех сих не отвратися ярость Его, но еще рука Его высока.
Therefore Jehovah will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
18 И разгорится яко огнь беззаконие, и яко троскот сухий пояден будет огнем, и разгорится в чащах дубравных и пояст, яже окрест холмов вся.
For wickedness burns like a fire. It devours the briers and thorns; yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
19 За ярость гнева Господня сгоре вся земля, и будут людие яко огнем пожжени: человек брата своего не помилует,
Through the wrath of Jehovah of hosts, the land is burnt up; and the people are the fuel for the fire. No one spares his brother.
20 но уклонится на десно, яко взалчет, и снесть от шуиих, и не насытится человек ядый плоти мышцы своея: снесть бо Манассий Ефремово, и Ефрем Манассиино, яко вкупе повоюют Иуду.
One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:
21 Во всех сих не отвратися ярость (Его), но еще рука Его высока.
Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
