Книга пророка Иеремии 49
1 К сыном Аммоним тако глаголет Господь: еда не суть сынове Израилевы, или наследника несть им? Почто убо прия наследие Мелхом Гада, и людие его во градех его живяху?
Against the sons of Ammon. Thus says the Lord: “Does Israel have no sons? Or is there no heir for him? Then why has Milcom possessed the inheritance of Gad, and why have his people lived in his cities?
2 Сего ради, се, дние грядут, глаголет Господь, и оглашу на Равваф сынов Аммоних ратный звук, и будет в непроходная и в пагубу, и требища его огнем сожжена будут, и восприимет Израиль власть свою, глаголет Господь.
Therefore, behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will cause the noise of battle to be heard over Rabbah of the sons of Ammon. And it will be scattered into a tumult, and her daughters will be burned with fire. And Israel shall possess those who had possessed him, says the Lord.
3 Возопий, Есевоне, яко погибе Гай: возопийте, дщери Раввафски, препояшитеся вретищами, рыдайте и бегайте по забралом, яко Мелхом во плен отведется, священницы и князи его вкупе.
Wail, O Heshbon! For Ai has been devastated. Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah! Wrap yourselves with haircloth. Mourn and circle the hedges. For Milcom will be led into the transmigration: his priests and his leaders together.
4 Что хвалишися во удолиих? Стече удолие твое, дщи безстудная, уповающая на богатства своя, глаголющи: кто приидет на мя?
Why have you gloried in the valleys? Your valley has flowed away, O delicate daughter, for you had confidence in your treasures, and you were saying, ‘Who can approach me?’
5 Се, Аз наведу на тя страх, глаголет Господь Вседержитель, от всех сущих окрест тебе: и разсеетеся вси от лица его, и не будет собирающаго бежащих.
Behold, I will lead a terror over you, says the Lord, the God of hosts, from those who are all around you. And you will be dispersed, each one from before your sight. There will be no one who will gather together those who are fleeing.
6 И посем возвращу пленники сынов Аммоних, глаголет Господь.
And after this, I will cause the captives of the sons of Ammon to return, says the Lord.”
7 Ко Идумеи сия глаголет Господь Вседержитель: еда есть ктому мудрость во Фемане? Погибе совет от разумных, непотребна бысть мудрость их,
Against Idumea. Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Is there no longer any wisdom in Teman? Counsel has perished from the sons. Their wisdom has become useless.
8 попрано бысть место их: снидите в пропасть к седению, живущии во Дедане: яко жестокая сотвори: (погибель Исавлю) наведох нань во время, в неже посетих его.
Flee and turn your backs! Descend into the chasm, O inhabitants of Dedan! For I have brought the perdition of Esau over him, the time of his visitation.
9 Яко оымателие вина приидоша на тя, не оставят тебе останков: аки татие в нощи возложат руки своя.
If those who gather grapes had passed by you, would they not have left behind a cluster? If there were thieves in the night, they would seize what was enough for themselves.
10 Яко (Аз) обнажих Исава, открых тайная его, не возможет утаитися, погибе рукою брата своего и соседа своего,
Yet truly, I have stripped Esau bare. I have revealed his secrets, and he is not able to be concealed. His offspring has been devastated, with his brothers and his neighbors, and he himself will not exist.
11 и несть остатися сироте твоей, да живет: Аз же сотворю жити, и вдовицы на Мя уповаша.
Leave behind your orphans. I will make sure that they live. And your widows will hope in me.”
12 Тако бо глаголет Господь: се, имже не бе закона пити чашу, пиюще испиют: и ты ли аки неповинный останешися? Не будеши неповинен, но пия испиеши.
For thus says the Lord: “Behold, those who judged that they would not drink the cup, will certainly drink. And so, will you be released as if you were innocent? You will not be released as if innocent. Instead, you shall certainly drink.
13 Собою бо кляхся, глаголет Господь, яко в пустыню и в поругание и в посмех и в проклятие будеши посреде его, и вси гради его будут в пустыню вечную.
For I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, that Bozrah will be a desolation, and a disgrace, and a wasteland, and a curse. And all her cities will be a perpetual wilderness.
14 Слух слышах от Господа, и послов во языки посла: соберитеся и идите противу ему и востаните на ополчение.
I have heard a report from the Lord, and a legate has been sent to the nations: ‘Gather yourselves together, and go forth against her, and let us rise up to battle.’
15 Се, мала дах тя во языцех и поругаема в людех.
For behold, I have made you little among the nations, contemptible among men.
16 Играние твое прельсти тя, безстудие сердца твоего обиташе в разселинах каменных, похити крепость холма высокаго: егда вознесеши яко орел гнездо свое, оттоле свергу тя, глаголет Господь.
Your arrogance has deceived you, by the pride of your heart, you who live in the caverns of the rock and who strive to take hold of the height of the hill. But even if you make your nest like that of an eagle, I will pull you down from there, says the Lord.
17 И будет Идумеа в запустение, всяк ходяй чрез ню подивится и позвиждет над всякою язвою ея.
And Idumea will be a desert. Everyone who passes by it will be stupefied and will hiss over all its wounds.
18 Якоже превращена есть Содома и Гоморра и соседи ея, глаголет Господь, не поживет тамо муж, ниже пребудет тамо сын человечь.
Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors were overthrown, says the Lord: there will not be a man living there, and no son of man will tend it.
19 Се, якоже лев изыдет от среды Иордана на место сильнаго, яко скоро сотворю им бежати от него, и кто будет избран, егоже поставлю над ним? Кто бо подобен Мне? И кто противостанет Ми? И кто есть сей пастырь, иже сопротивится лицу Моему?
Behold, he will ascend like a lion from the arrogance of the Jordan, against the robust beauty. For I will cause him to rush against her suddenly. And who will be the elect one, whom I may appoint over her? For who is like me? And who can endure me? And who is that pastor who can withstand my countenance?
20 Сего ради слышите совет Господень, егоже совеща на Едома, и умышление Его, еже умысли на живущих во Фемане, не свергут ли их малая от стад, и не разметано ли будет на них жилище их?
Because of this, listen to the counsel of the Lord, which he has undertaken concerning Edom, and to his thoughts, which he has devised concerning the inhabitants of Teman. Certainly, the little ones of the flock will cast them down, unless they scatter them with their habitation.
21 От гласа бо падения их потрясеся земля, и вопль на мори Чермнем слышася гласа их.
The earth has been shaken at the noise of their destruction. The outcry of their voice has been heard at the Red Sea.
22 Се, яко орел взыдет и возлетит и прострет криле свои над твердыньми его: и будет сердце сильных Идумейских в той день, яко сердце жены родящия.
Behold, he will ascend like an eagle and will fly. And he will spread his wings over Bozrah. And in that day, the heart of the strong ones of Idumea will be like the heart of a woman giving birth.”
23 К Дамаску: посрамися Емаф и Арфаф, яко слух зол слышаша, ужасошася, возмутишася на мори, (за попечение) упокоитися не могут.
Against Damascus. “Hamath has been confounded, with Arpad. For they have heard a most grievous report. They have been stirred up like the sea. Because of anxiousness, they were not able to rest.
24 Расторжеся Дамаск, обратися на бежание, трепет объят и, скорбь и болезнь одержаша его яко раждающую.
Damascus has been broken. She has been turned to flight. Trembling has taken hold of her. Anguish and sorrows have seized her, like a woman giving birth.
25 Како не оставиша града славнаго, крепости любезныя?
How could they have abandoned the praiseworthy city, the city of rejoicing?
26 Сего ради падут юноши на стогнах твоих, и вси мужие воинстии падут в той день, глаголет Господь Вседержитель.
For this reason, her young men will fall in her streets. And all the men of battle will be silenced in that day, says the Lord of hosts.
27 И возжгу огнь на стене Дамаска, и пожжет стены сына Адерова.
And I will kindle a fire at the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the defensive walls of Ben-hadad.”
28 К Кидару, царице двора, егоже порази Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский, тако глаголет Господь: востаните и взыдите на Кидар и погубите сыны восточныя.
Against Kedar and against the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has struck down. Thus says the Lord: “Rise up and ascend to Kedar, and lay waste to the sons of the East.
29 Селения их и стада их возмут: одежды их и вся сосуды их и велблюды их возмут себе, и призовут на ня страх окрест.
They will seize their tabernacles and their flocks. And they will take for themselves their tents, and all their vessels, and their camels. And they will call down a terror upon them on every side.
30 Бежите и отидите вскоре, в пропастех сядите, живущии во дворе, глаголет Господь: яко совеща на вы Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский совет и помысли на вас умышление.
Flee, go away urgently! Sit in deep pits, you who inhabit Hazor, says the Lord. For Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has undertaken a counsel against you, and he has devised plans against you.
31 Востаните и внидите к людем упокоеным, живущым в прохладе, глаголет Господь: иже ни дверий, ниже заворов имут, едини обитают.
Rise up, and ascend to a nation that is quiet and lives in confidence, says the Lord. They have neither gates nor bars. They dwell alone.
32 И будут велблюды их в расхищение и множество скота их в разграбление, и развею я всяким ветром остриженых окрест, и от всех окрестных их приведу на ня погибель, глаголет Господь.
And their camels will be a spoil, and the multitude of their cattle will be a prey. And I will disperse, into every wind, those who have shaved their hair. And from all their confines, I will lead great destruction over them, says the Lord.
33 И будет двор в жилище змием и пуст даже до века, не поживет тамо муж, ниже будет живяй в нем сын человечь.
And Hazor will be a habitation for serpents, deserted even unto eternity. No man will abide there, nor will a son of man tend it.”
34 Слово Господне, еже бысть ко Иеремии пророку на Елам, в начале царства Седекии царя Иудина, глаголя:
The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, the king of Judah, saying:
35 тако глаголет Господь Вседержитель: се, Аз сокрушу лук Еламль, начало силы их,
“Thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, and the summit of their strength.
36 и наведу на Елам четыри ветры от четырех стран небесных и развею я во вся ветры тыя, и не будет языка, в оньже бы не пришли бежащии Еламитяне.
And I will lead the four winds over Elam, from the four corners of heaven. And I will scatter them into all these winds. And there will be no nation to which the fugitives of Elam will not travel.
37 И устрашу их пред враги их и пред лицем ищущих души их, и наведу на ня злая, по гневу ярости Моея, глаголет Господь: и послю вслед их мечь Мой, дондеже сотру их:
And I will cause Elam to be terrified before their enemies and in the sight of those who seek their life. And I will lead an evil over them, the wrath of my fury, says the Lord. And I will send the sword after them, until I consume them.
38 и поставлю престол Мой во Еламе, и иждену оттуду царя и князи, глаголет Господь:
And I will set my throne in Elam, and I will perish the kings and princes from there, says the Lord.
39 и будет в последния дни, возвращу плен Еламль, глаголет Господь.
But in the last days, I will cause the captives of Elam to return, says the Lord.”
