< Книга пророка Иеремии 20 >

1 И услыша Пасхор сын Еммеров священник, иже поставлен бе началник в дому Господни, Иеремию пророчествующа словеса сия:
Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the LORD’s house, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
2 и удари Пасхор Иеремию пророка и вверже его в кладу, яже бе во вратех Вениаминих вышних в дому Господни.
Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the LORD’s house.
3 Бывшу же утру, изведе Пасхор Иеремию от клады. И рече к нему Иеремиа: не Пасхор нарече (Господь) имя твое, но Преселника Отвсюду.
On the next day, Pashhur released Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, “The LORD has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.
4 Понеже сия глаголет Господь: се, Аз дам тя в преселение и всех другов твоих: и падут мечем враг своих, и очи твои узрят, и тебе и всего Иуду дам в руки царя Вавилонска, и преведут их в Вавилон и побиют их мечьми.
For the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. They will fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes will see it. I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will carry them captive to Babylon, and will kill them with the sword.
5 И дам всю силу града сего и вся труды его и вся сокровища царя Иудина дам в руки врагов его, и расхитят их и возмут и отведут в Вавилон.
Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all its precious things, yes, I will give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies. They will make them captives, take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 Ты же, Пасхор, и вси обитателие дому твоего, отидете во пленение, и в Вавилон приидеши и тамо умреши, тамо же и погребешися ты и вси друзие твои, имже пророчествовал еси лжу.
You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house will go into captivity. You will come to Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.’”
7 Прельстил мя еси, Господи, и прельщен есмь, креплейший мене еси и превозмогл еси: бых в посмех весь день, вси ругаются мне.
LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I, and have prevailed. I have become a laughingstock all day. Everyone mocks me.
8 Понеже горьким словом моим посмеюся, отвержение и бедность наведу, яко бысть в поношение мне слово Господне и в посмех весь день.
For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, “Violence and destruction!” because the LORD’s word has been made a reproach to me, and a derision, all day.
9 И рекох: не воспомяну имене Господня, ниже возглаголю ктому во имя Его. И бысть в сердцы моем яко огнь горящь, палящь в костех моих, и разслабех отвсюду, и не могу носити:
If I say that I will not make mention of him, or speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones. I am weary with holding it in. I can’t.
10 слышах бо досадителства многих собравшихся окрест: нападите, нападим нань, вси мужие друзие его: наблюдайте помышление его, аще (како) прельстится, и преможем нань и сотворим отмщение наше ему.
For I have heard the defaming of many: “Terror on every side! Denounce, and we will denounce him!” say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall. “Perhaps he will be persuaded, and we will prevail against him, and we will take our revenge on him.”
11 Господь же со мною есть яко борец крепкий: сего ради погнаша и уразумети не могоша: постыдешася зело, яко не разумеша безчестия своего, еже во век не забвено будет.
But the LORD is with me as an awesome mighty one. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they won’t prevail. They will be utterly disappointed because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonour which will never be forgotten.
12 И Ты, Господи сил, искушаяй праведная, ведаяй утробы и сердца, (молютися, ) да вижду мщение Твое на них, Тебе бо открых прю мою.
But the LORD of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for I have revealed my cause to you.
13 Пойте Господу, хвалите Господа, яко избави душу убогаго от руки лукавых.
Sing to the LORD! Praise the LORD, for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
14 Проклят день, в оньже родихся: день, в оньже породи мя мати моя, да не будет благословен.
Cursed is the day in which I was born. Don’t let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
15 Проклят муж, иже возвести отцу моему, рекий: родися тебе отрок мужеск, и яко радостию возвесели его.
Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, “A boy is born to you,” making him very glad.
16 Да будет человек той якоже гради, яже преврати Господь яростию и не раскаяся: да слышит вопль заутра и рыдание во время полуденное:
Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and didn’t repent. Let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime,
17 яко не убил мене в ложеснах матере, и была бы мне мати моя гроб мой и ложесна зачатия вечнаго.
because he didn’t kill me from the womb. So my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18 Вскую изыдох из ложесн, да вижду труды и болезни, и скончашася в постыдении дние мои?
Why did I come out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
