1 И бысть слово Господне ко Иеремии вторицею, тойже бяше еще связан во дворе темничнем, глаголя:
While I was still being guarded in the courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave me this second message:
2 тако рече Господь, творяй землю и устрояяй ю, еже исправити ю, Господь имя Ему:
“This is what I, the one who made the earth, who formed/shaped it and put it in its place, say [to the people of Jerusalem]: ‘My name is Yahweh.
3 возопий ко Мне, и отвещаю ти и возвещу тебе великая и крепкая, ихже не разумел еси.
Call out to me, and [then] I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known [before].’
4 Яко тако рече Господь Бог Израилев о домех града сего и о храмех царя Иудина, растерзанных на остроги и на забрала,
This is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israeli people [say you belong to], say: ‘[The men in this city] have torn down [some of] their houses, and [even parts of] the king’s palace, to get materials to strengthen the walls around the city, in order that [the soldiers of Babylonia will not be able to break through the walls after they climb up] the ramps that they have built against the walls, and [kill the inhabitants with] their swords.
5 еже противитися ко Халдеем, и наполню его мертвыми человеки, ихже поразих во гневе Моем и в ярости Моей, и отвратих лице Мое от них всех ради злоб их.
You are expecting to fight against the army from Babylonia, but [what will happen is that] the houses of this city will be filled with the corpses of the men of this city whom I will [allow to be killed] because I am extremely angry [DOU] with them. I have abandoned them because of all the wicked things that they have done.
6 Се, Аз наведу на ня срастение язвы и изцеление, и изврачую я и явлю им, еже слушати, и изцелю я и сотворю им мир и веру:
However, [there will be a time when] I will cause the people in this city to be healthy and strong again. I will enable them to be prosperous and have peace.
7 и обращу преселение Иудино и преселение Израилево, и согражду я, якоже и прежде,
I will bring the people of Judah and Israel back from the lands to which they were exiled. I will enable them to rebuild their towns.
8 и очищу я от всех неправд их, имиже согрешиша Ми, и милостив буду всем неправдам их, имиже отступиша от Мене.
I will get rid of their guilt for all the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive them for their sin of rebelling against me.
9 И будет в веселие и во хвалу и в величие всем людем земли, иже услышат вся благоты, яже Аз сотворю им, и убоятся, и огорчатся о всех благотах и о всем мире, егоже Аз сотворю им.
[When that happens], all the nations of the world will rejoice, and they will praise me and honor me. They will hear about all the good things that I have done for this city and, because of that, they will revere me, and they will tremble because I have caused [the people in this city] to have peace and to prosper.’
10 Тако рече Господь: еще услышится в сем месте, о немже вы глаголете: пусто есть от человек и от скот, во градех Иудиных и вне Иерусалима, опустевших, понеже несть человека, ни скота,
And this is also what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘You people have said that this is a land where there are no [longer] any people or animals. But in the streets of Jerusalem that are now completely empty [DOU], and in the [other] towns in Judah,
11 глас веселия и глас радости, глас жениха и глас невесты, глас глаголющих: исповедайтеся Господеви Вседержителю, яко благ Господь, яко в век милость Его: и принесут дары похваления в дом Господень, яко возвращу все преселение земли тоя по прежнему, рече Господь.
[some day] people will again be happy and laugh. Brides and bridegrooms will [again] sing [joyfully]. And many other people will also sing joyfully as they bring their offerings to me to thank me [for what I have done for them]. [They will sing this song]: “[We] thank you, the Commander of the armies of angels, because you are good [to us]. You faithfully love [us] forever.” [They will sing that] because I will cause [the people of] land to be as prosperous as they were before.’
12 Тако глаголет Господь Сил: еще будут на сем месте пустем, за еже не быти человеку, ни скоту, во всех градех его обиталища пастухов пасущих овцы,
This land is [now] desolate. There are no people or animals living here. But [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘In this land there will again be pastures/fields where shepherds will lead their sheep.
13 во градех горних и во градех польных, и во градех нагев и в земли Вениамини, и во окрестных Иерусалима и во градех Иудиных, еще пойдут овцы к руце изчисляющаго, глаголет Господь.
Shepherds will again count their sheep as the sheep walk by, outside the towns in the hilly area, in the western foothills, in the southern desert area, in the land [where the descendants] of Benjamin live, around Jerusalem, and outside [all] the [other] towns in Judah.’ [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.
14 Се, дние грядут, рече Господь, и возставлю слово благо, еже глаголах к дому Израилеву и к дому Иудину.
Listen to this! [I], Yahweh, say that there will be a time when I will do for the people of Israel and Judah [all the good things that] I promised to do [for them].
15 Во днех онех и в то время произрастити сотворю Давиду Отрасль правды, и сотворит суд и правду на земли.
At that time [DOU] I will appoint a righteous man who will be a descendant [MET] of King David. Throughout the land, he will do what is just and right.
16 Во днех онех спасен будет Иуда, и Иерусалим пребудет в надежди: и сие есть имя, имже нарекут Его: Господь праведен наш.
At that time, [the people of] Judah will be rescued [from their enemies], and [the people of] Jerusalem will be safe. And people will say that the name of the city is ‘Yahweh [is the one who] vindicates/defends us’.
17 Тако бо рече Господь: не оскудеет от Давида муж седяй на престоле дому Израилева:
And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘There will be descendants of King David ruling [MTY] Israel forever.
18 и от жерцев и от левитов не погибнет муж от лица Моего, приносяй всесожжения и дар и творяй жертвы по вся дни.
And there will always be priests who are descendants of Levi who [stand] in front of me and offer sacrifices that will be completely burned [on the altar] and who will burn grain offerings and [other] sacrifices.’”
19 И бысть слово Господне ко Иеремии глаголя:
[Then] Yahweh gave me this message:
20 тако глаголет Господь: может ли разоритися завет Мой со днем и завет Мой с нощию, еже не быти дню и нощи во время свое?
“This is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘[You] certainly cannot annul my promise/agreement to cause nighttime to follow daytime each day.
21 То и завет Мой разорится с Давидом рабом Моим, еже не быти от него сыну царствующу на престоле его, и с левиты и священники рабы Моими.
Similarly, you cannot annul the promise/agreement [that I made] with King David, who served me [well], that there will always be descendants of his who will rule [Judah]. The same is true for my agreement with the descendants of Levi who are priests who do work for me.
22 Якоже сочтены быти не могут звезды небесныя, ни измерен быти песок морский, тако умножу семя раба Моего Давида и левиты служители Моя.
No one can count the stars in the sky, and no one can count the grains of sand at the seashore. Similarly, I will cause there to be a huge number of priests who are descendants of David and descendants of Levi who will work for me.’”
23 И бысть слово Господне ко Иеремии глаголя:
Yahweh gave another message to me. He said,
24 еда не видел еси, что рекоша людие сии, глаголюще: два народа, ихже избра Господь, и се, отверже я: и преогорчиша людий Моих, (сего ради) яко да не будет ктому народ пред ними?
“Have you noticed/heard that some people are saying, ‘Yahweh chose two groups, the people [of Judah] and the people [of Israel], and [later] abandoned them.’ They are despising my people and saying that Israel no longer deserves to be considered a nation.
25 Тако рече Господь: не положих ли убо завета Моего между днем и нощию и законов небеси и земли?
But this is what I say: ‘I will not change my laws that control the day and the night, the sky and the earth.
26 Тогда и семя Иаковле и Давида раба Моего отвергу, еже не прияти от семене его князей семене Авраама и Исаака и Иакова: яко паки возвращу плен их и помилую их.
Similarly, I will never abandon the descendants of David or the [other] descendants of Jacob, and I will always allow descendants of David to rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will bring my people back to their land, and I will act mercifully toward them.’”
