Книга пророка Исаии 1
1 Видение, еже виде Исаиа сын Амосов, еже виде на Иудею и на Иерусалим, в царство Озии и Иоафама, и Ахаза и Езекии, иже царствоваша во Иудеи.
The vision of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, which he saw about Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Слыши, небо, и внуши, земле, яко Господь возглагола: сыны родих и возвысих, тии же отвергошася Мене.
Give ear, O heavens, and you, O earth, to the word which the Lord has said: I have taken care of my children till they became men, but their hearts have been turned away from me.
3 Позна вол стяжавшаго и, и осел ясли господина своего: Израиль же Мене не позна, и людие Мои не разумеша.
Even the ox has knowledge of its owner, and the ass of the place where its master puts its food: but Israel has no knowledge, my people give no thought to me.
4 Увы, язык грешный, людие исполнени грехов, семя лукавое, сынове беззаконнии, остависте Господа и разгневасте Святаго Израилева, отвратистеся вспять.
O nation full of sin, a people weighted down with crime, a generation of evil-doers, false-hearted children: they have gone away from the Lord, they have no respect for the Holy One of Israel, their hearts are turned back from him.
5 Что еще уязвляетеся, прилагающе беззаконие? Всякая глава в болезнь, и всякое сердце в печаль.
Why will you have more and more punishment? why keep on in your evil ways? Every head is tired and every heart is feeble.
6 От ног даже до главы несть в нем целости: ни струп, ни язва, ни рана палящаяся: несть пластыря приложити, ниже елеа, ниже обязания.
The body, from head to foot, is all diseased; it is a mass of open wounds, marks of blows, and broken flesh: the flow of blood has not been stopped, and no oil has been put on the wounds.
7 Земля ваша пуста, гради ваши огнем пожжени, страну вашу пред вами чуждии поядают, и опусте низвращена от людий чуждих.
Your country has become waste; your towns are burned with fire; as for your land, it is overturned before your eyes, made waste and overcome by men from strange lands.
8 Оставится дщерь Сионя яко куща в винограде и яко овощное хранилище в вертограде, яко град воюемый.
And the daughter of Zion has become like a tent in a vine-garden, like a watchman's house in a field of fruit, like a town shut in by armies.
9 И аще не бы Господь Саваоф оставил нам семене, яко Содома убо были быхом, и яко Гоморру уподобилися быхом.
If the Lord of armies had not kept some at least of us safe, we would have been like Sodom, and the fate of Gomorrah would have been ours.
10 Услышите слово Господне, князи Содомстии: внемлите закону Божию, людие Гоморрстии.
Give ear to the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom; let your hearts be turned to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11 Что Ми множество жертв ваших, глаголет Господь? Исполнен есмь всесожжений овних и тука агнцев, и и крове юнцев и козлов не хощу.
What use to me is the number of the offerings which you give me? says the Lord; your burned offerings of sheep, and the best parts of fat cattle, are a weariness to me; I take no pleasure in the blood of oxen, or of lambs, or of he-goats.
12 Ниже приходите явитися Ми: кто бо изыска сия из рук ваших? Ходити по двору Моему не приложите.
At whose request do you come before me, making my house unclean with your feet?
13 И аще принесете Ми семидал, всуе: кадило мерзость Ми есть.
Give me no more false offerings; the smoke of burning flesh is disgusting to me, so are your new moons and Sabbaths and your holy meetings.
14 Новомесячий ваших и суббот и дне великаго не потерплю: поста и праздности, и новомесячий ваших и праздников ваших ненавидит душа Моя: бысте Ми в сытость, ктому не стерплю грехов ваших.
Your new moons and your regular feasts are a grief to my soul: they are a weight in my spirit; I am crushed under them.
15 Егда прострете руки (вашя) ко Мне, отвращу очи Мои от вас: и аще умножите моление, не услышу вас: руки бо вашя исполнены крове.
And when your hands are stretched out to me, my eyes will be turned away from you: even though you go on making prayers, I will not give ear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Измыйтеся, (и) чисти будите, отимите лукавства от душ ваших пред очима Моима, престаните от лукавств ваших.
Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;
17 Научитеся добро творити, взыщите суда, избавите обидимаго, судите сиру и оправдите вдовицу,
Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.
18 и приидите, и истяжимся, глаголет Господь. И аще будут греси ваши яко багряное, яко снег убелю: аще же будут яко червленое, яко волну убелю.
Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool?
19 И аще хощете и послушаете Мене, благая земли снесте:
If you will give ear to my word and do it, the good things of the land will be yours;
20 аще же не хощете, ниже послушаете Мене, мечь вы пояст: уста бо Господня глаголаша сия.
But if your hearts are turned against me, I will send destruction on you by the sword; so the Lord has said.
21 Како бысть блудница град верный Сион полн суда? В немже правда почиваше, ныне же (в нем) убийцы.
The upright town has become untrue; there was a time when her judges gave right decisions, when righteousness had a resting-place in her, but now she is full of those who take men's lives.
22 Сребро ваше неискушено, корчемницы твои мешают вино с водою.
Your silver is no longer true metal, your wine is mixed with water.
23 Князи твои не покаряются, общницы татем, любяще дары, гоняще воздаяние, сирым не судящии и суду вдовиц не внимающии.
Your chiefs have gone against the Lord, they have become friends of thieves; every one of them is looking for profit and going after rewards; they do not give right decisions for the child who has no father, and they do not let the cause of the widow come before them.
24 Сего ради тако глаголет Владыка Господь Саваоф: горе крепким во Израили: не престанет бо ярость Моя на противныя, и суд врагом Моим сотворю:
For this reason the Lord, the Lord of armies, the Strong One of Israel, has said, I will put an end to my haters, and send punishment on those who are against me;
25 и наведу руку Мою на тя, и разжегу в чистоту, непокаряющихся же погублю, и отиму всех беззаконных от тебе, и всех гордых смирю.
And my hand will again be on you, washing away what is unclean as with soap, and taking away all your false metal;
26 И приставлю судии твоя якоже прежде, и советники твоя яко от начала: и по сих наречешися град правды, мати градовом, верный Сион.
And I will give you judges again as at the first, and wise guides as in the past; then you will be named, The Town of Righteousness, the true town.
27 С судом бо спасется пленение его и с милостынею.
Upright acts will be the price of Zion's forgiveness, and by righteousness will men be living there.
28 И сокрушатся беззаконнии и грешницы вкупе, и оставившии Господа скончаются:
But a common destruction will overtake sinners and evil-doers together, and those who have gone away from the Lord will be cut off.
29 занеже постыдятся о идолех своих, ихже сами восхотеша, и посрамятся о садех своих, ихже возжелеша.
For you will be put to shame because of the trees of your desire, and because of the gardens of your pleasure.
30 Будут бо яко теревинф отметнувый листвия (своя), и яко вертоград не имый воды.
For you will be like a tree whose leaves have become dry, and like a garden without water.
31 И будет крепость их яко стебль изгребия, и делания их яко искры огненныя, и сожгутся беззаконницы и грешницы вкупе, и не будет угашаяй.
And the strong will be as food for the fire, and his work as a flame; and they will be burned together, with no one to put out the fire.
