Книга пророка Иеремии 23
1 Горе пастырем, иже погубляют и расточают овцы паствы Моея, рече Господь.
“Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
2 Сего ради сия рече Господь Бог Израилев к пасущым людий Моих: вы расточили есте овцы Моя, и отвергосте я, и не посетисте их, се, Аз посещу на вас по лукавству умышлений ваших, рече Господь:
Therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this concerning the shepherds who are shepherding his people, “You have scattered my flock and have driven them away. You have not cared for them. So I am about to punish you for the evil you have done—this is Yahweh's declaration.
3 и Аз соберу останки стада Моего от всех земель, в няже извергох их тамо, и возвращу их к селением их, и возрастут и умножатся.
I myself will gather the remnant of my flock from all of the lands where I have driven them, and I will return them to a grazing place, where they will be fruitful and increase.
4 И возставлю над ними пастыри, и упасут их, и не убоятся ктому, ниже ужаснутся, и ни един погибнет от числа, рече Господь.
Then I will raise up shepherds over them who will shepherd them so they will no longer fear or be shattered. None of them will go missing—this is Yahweh's declaration.
5 Се, дние грядут, глаголет Господь, и возставлю Давиду Восток праведный, и царствовати будет Царь и премудр будет и сотворит суд и правду на земли:
See, the days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when I will raise up for David a righteous branch. He will reign as king; he will act wisely and cause justice and righteousness in the land.
6 во днех Его спасется Иуда, и Израиль пребудет в надежди, и сие имя Ему, имже нарекут Его: Господь праведен наш.
In his days Judah will be rescued, and Israel will live in security. Then this is the name by which he will be called: Yahweh is our righteousness.
7 Сего ради, се, дние грядут, рече Господь, и не рекут ктому: живет Господь, иже изведе сыны Израилевы от земли Египетския:
Therefore see, days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when they will no longer say, 'As Yahweh lives, who brought the people of Israel up from the land of Egypt.'
8 но: живет Господь, иже изведе и преведе семя дому Израилева от земли северски и от всех земель, в няже изверже их тамо, и обитати имут в земли своей.
Instead they will say, 'As Yahweh lives, who brought up and who led back the descendants of the house of Israel from the northern land and all the lands where they had been driven.' Then they will live in their own land.”
9 О пророцех сотрено есть сердце мое во мне, вострепеташа вся кости моя, бых яко муж пиян и яко человек, егоже одоле вино, от лица Господня и от лица благолепия славы Его.
Regarding the prophets, my heart is broken in me, and all of my bones tremble. I have become like a drunk man, like a man whom wine has overpowered, because of Yahweh and his holy words.
10 Яко прелюбодеяньми исполнена есть земля, яко от лица их плакася земля, изсхоша пажити пустынныя: и бысть течение их лукаво, и крепость их такожде.
For the land is full of adulterers. Because of these the land is dried up. The meadows in the wilderness dry up. These prophets' paths are wicked; their power is not used in a right manner.
11 Понеже пророк и священник осквернишася, и в дому Моем обретох лукавство их, рече Господь:
“For both the prophets and the priests are polluted. I even found their wickedness in my house!—this is Yahweh's declaration—
12 того ради путь их будет им ползок во тме, и поткнутся и падут в нем: наведу бо на них злая в лето посещения их, рече Господь.
therefore their way will be like a slippery place in the darkness. They will be pushed down. They will fall in it. For I will send disaster against them in the year of their punishment—this is Yahweh's declaration.
13 И во пророцех Самарийских видех беззакония: пророчествоваху чрез Ваала и прельщаху люди Моя Израиля.
For I have seen the prophets in Samaria doing what is repulsive: They prophesied by Baal and led my people Israel astray.
14 И во пророцех Иерусалимских видех ужасная, прелюбодействующих и ходящих во лжи и скрепляющих руки строптивым, да не отвратится кийждо от пути своего лукаваго: быша Мне вси аки Содом, и обитающии в нем яко Гоморр.
Among the prophets in Jerusalem I have seen horrible things: They commit adultery and walk in deceit. They strengthen the hands of evildoers; no one turns back from his evildoing. All of them have become like Sodom to me and its inhabitants like Gomorrah!”
15 Сего ради тако рече Господь Сил ко пророком: се, Аз напитаю их пелынем и напою их желчию, от пророков бо Иерусалимских изыде осквернение на всю землю.
Therefore Yahweh of hosts says this concerning the prophets, “Look, I am about to make them eat wormwood and drink poisonous water, for pollution has gone out from the prophets of Jerusalem to all the land.”
16 Сия глаголет Господь Сил: не слушайте словес пророков, иже пророчествуют вам и прельщают вас: видение от сердца своего глаголют, а не от уст Господних.
Yahweh of hosts says this, “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They have deluded you! They are announcing visions from their own minds, not from Yahweh's mouth.
17 Глаголют отвергающым Мя: глагола Господь, мир будет вам: и всем, иже ходят в похотех своих, и всякому, ходящему в строптивстве сердца своего, рекоша: не приидут на вас злая.
They are constantly saying to those who dishonor me, 'Yahweh declares there will be peace for you.' For everyone walking in the stubbornness of his own heart says, 'Disaster will not come upon you.'
18 Кто бо бысть в совете Господни, и виде и слыша словеса Его? Кто внят слово Его и слыша?
Yet who has stood in Yahweh's council meeting? Who sees and hears his word? Who pays attention to his word and listens?
19 Се, буря от Господа и ярость исходит в сотрясение, устремившися приидет на нечестивыя.
See, there is a storm coming from Yahweh! His fury is going out, and a tempest is whirling about. It is whirling around the heads of the wicked.
20 И ктому не возвратится ярость Господня, дондеже сотворит сие и дондеже совершит помышление сердца Своего. В последния дни уразумеете совет Его.
Yahweh's wrath will not return until it has carried out and brought into being his heart's intentions. In the final days, you will understand it.
21 Не посылах пророки, а они течаху: не глаголах к ним, и тии пророчествоваху.
I did not send out these prophets. They just appeared. I did not proclaim anything to them, but they have still prophesied.
22 И аще бы стали в совете Моем, слышана сотворили бы словеса Моя и отвратили бы людий Моих от пути их лукаваго и от начинаний их лукавых.
For if they had stood in my council meeting, they would have caused my people to hear my word; they would have caused them to turn from their wicked words and corrupt practices.
23 Бог приближаяйся Аз есмь, глаголет Господь, а не Бог издалеча.
Am I only a God nearby—this is Yahweh's declaration—and not also a God far away?
24 Аще утаится кто в сокровенных, и Аз не узрю ли его? Рече Господь. Еда небо и землю не Аз наполняю? Рече Господь.
Can anyone hide in a secret place so I cannot see him?—this is Yahweh's declaration— and do I not fill the heavens and the earth?—this is Yahweh's declaration.
25 Слышах, яже глаголют пророцы, пророчествующе во имя Мое лжу и глаголюще: видех сон, (видех сон).
I have heard what the prophets have said, those who were prophesying deceit in my name. They said, 'I had a dream! I had a dream!'
26 Доколе будет в сердцы пророков прорицающих лжу и пророчествующих льщения сердца своего,
How long will this go on, prophets who prophesy lies from their minds, and who prophesy from the deceit in their hearts?
27 мыслящих, да забвен будет закон Мой в сониих их, яже вещают кийждо искреннему своему, якоже забыша отцы их имя Мое ради Ваала?
They are planning on making my people forget my name with the dreams that they report, each one to his neighbor, just as their ancestors forgot my name in favor of Baal's name.
28 Пророк, иже имать сновидение, да вещает сновидение свое, а иже имать слово Мое, да глаголет слово Мое во истине. Что плевы ко пшенице? Тако слово Мое, рече Господь.
The prophet who has a dream, let him report the dream. But the one to whom I have declared something, let him declare my word truthfully. What does straw have to do with grain?—this is Yahweh's declaration—
29 Еда словеса Моя не суть якоже огнь горящь, рече Господь, и яко млат сотрыющь камень?
Is not my word like fire?—this is Yahweh's declaration—and like a hammer that shatters a rock into pieces?
30 Сего ради, се, Аз ко пророком, рече Господь, иже крадут словеса Моя кийждо от искренняго своего.
So see, I am against the prophets—this is Yahweh's declaration—anyone who steals words from another person and says they come from me.
31 Се, Аз на пророки, глаголет Господь, износящыя пророчествия языком и дремлющыя дремание свое.
See, I am against the prophets—this is Yahweh's declaration—who use their tongues to prophesy proclamations.
32 Се, Аз на пророки, прорицающыя соние лживо, рече Господь, и провещаша та, и прельстиша люди Моя во лжах своих и во прелестех своих, Аз же не послах их, ни заповедах им, и пользою не упользуют людий сих, (рече Господь).
See, I am against the prophets who dream deceitfully—this is Yahweh's declaration—and then proclaim them and in this way mislead my people with their deceit and boasting. I am against them, for I have not sent them out nor given them commands. So they will certainly not help this people—this is Yahweh's declaration.
33 И аще вопросят людие сии, или пророк, или священник, рекуще: кое (есть) бремя Господне? И речеши к ним: вы есте бремя, и повергу вас, рече Господь.
When these people, or a prophet, or a priest asks you, 'What is the burden of Yahweh?' you will say to them, 'You are the burden, and I will cast you off'—this is Yahweh's declaration.
34 И пророк, и священник, и людие, иже рекут: бремя Господне, посещу местию на мужа того и на дом его.
As for the prophets, priests, and people who are saying, 'This is the burden of Yahweh' I will punish that man and his house.
35 Сице рцыте кийждо ко искреннему и ко брату своему: что отвеща Господь? И что глагола Господь?
You continue to say, each person to his neighbor and each man to his brother, 'What did Yahweh answer?' and 'What did Yahweh declare?'
36 И бремя Господне не помянется ктому, ибо бремя будет комуждо слово его: и превратисте словеса Бога живаго, Господа Сил, Бога нашего.
But you must no longer talk about the 'burden of Yahweh,' for the burden is every man's own word, and you have perverted the words of the living God, Yahweh of hosts, our God.
37 Сия рцы ко пророку: что отвеща тебе Господь? И что глагола Господь?
This is what you will say to the prophet, 'What answer did Yahweh give you? or 'What did Yahweh say?'
38 Аще же речете: бремя Господне: сего ради тако рече Господь: понеже рекли есте глагол сей бремя Господне, и послах к вам, рекий: не глаголите бремя Господне:
But if you say, 'The burden of Yahweh', this is what Yahweh says: 'Because you have said these words, 'The burden of Yahweh,' when I sent to you, saying, 'You will not say, “The burden of Yahweh,”'
39 сего ради, се, Аз возму и повергу вас и град, егоже дах вам и отцем вашым, от лица Моего,
therefore, behold, I am about to pick you up and throw you away from me, along with the city that I gave you and your ancestors.
40 и дам вас в поношение вечное и в срамоту вечную, яже никогда забвением загладится.
Then I will put everlasting shame and insult on you that will not be forgotten.'”
