Книга пророка Иеремии 47
1 Слово Господне, еже бысть ко Иеремии пророку на иноплеменники, прежде нежели порази фараон Газу.
The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah, the prophet, against the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.
2 Тако глаголет Господь: се, воды восходят от севера и будут яко поток наводняяй, и потопят землю и исполнение ея, град и живущыя в нем: и возопиют людие и восплачутся вси живущии на земли,
Thus says the Lord: “Behold, waters will rise up from the north, and they will be like an inundating torrent, and they will cover the land and its plenitude, the city and its inhabitants. The men will cry out, and all the inhabitants of the land will wail,
3 от шума устремления его, от оружия ног его и от гремения колесниц его и от звука колес его: не обратишася отцы ко сыном своим, опустивше руце свои,
before the uproar of a procession of weapons and of his soldiers, before the commotion of his four-horse chariots and the multitude of his wheels. The fathers have not looked back for the sons, because of feebleness of hands,
4 в день находящь, еже погубити вся иноплеменники: и разорю Тир и Сидон со всеми прочими помощники их, яко истребит Господь Филистины, останки островов Каппадокийских.
because of the arrival of the day on which all the Philistines will be devastated, and Tyre and Sidon will be destroyed, with all the rest of their helpers. For the Lord has depopulated the Philistines, the remnant of the island of Cappadocia.
5 Прииде плешь на Газу, отвержен бысть Аскалон и останцы енакимли.
Baldness has arrived over Gaza. Ashkelon has been silenced, along with the remnant of their valley. And how long will you continue to be cut down?
6 Доколе сещи будеши, о, мечу Божий! Доколе не упокоишися? Вниди в ножны твоя, почий и вознесися.
O sharp sword of the Lord, how long will you be without rest? Enter your sheath; be refreshed and silenced.
7 Како упокоится? Понеже Господь заповеда ему на Аскалона и на сущыя при мори, на прочыя востати.
But how can it find rest, when the Lord has ordered it against Ashkelon and against its maritime regions, and when a task has been appointed to it there?”
