Плач Иеремии 2
1 Алеф. Како омрачи во гневе Своем Господь дщерь Сионю: сверже с небесе на землю славу Израилеву, и не помяну подножия ногу Своею в день гнева и ярости Своея.
How has the LORD covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven to the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
2 Беф. Погрузи Господь и не пощаде: вся красная Иаковля разори яростию Своею, твердыни дщере Иудины изверже на землю, оскверни царя ея и князи ея,
The LORD has swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and has not pitied: he has thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he has brought them down to the ground: he has polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
3 гимель. Сокруши во гневе ярости Своея весь рог Израилев, обрати вспять десницу его от лица врага, разжже во Иакове яко огнь пламы, и потреби вся окрест,
He has cut off in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he has drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devours round about.
4 далеф. Напряже лук Свой яко ратник противный, утверди десницу Свою яко супостат и изби вся красная очию моею во селениих дщере Сиони, излия яко огнь ярость Свою.
He has bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
5 Ге. Бысть Господь аки враг, погрузи Израиля, погрузи вся домы его, разсыпа вся стены его и умножи дщери Иудине смирена и смирену,
The LORD was as an enemy: he has swallowed up Israel, he has swallowed up all her palaces: he has destroyed his strong holds, and has increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
6 вав. И разверзе аки виноград селение Свое, разсыпа праздники Его: забы Господь, яже сотвори в Сионе праздники и субботы, и озлоби прещением гнева Своего царя и князя и жерца.
And he has violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he has destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD has caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and has despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
7 Заин. Отрину Господь жертвенник Свой, оттрясе святыню Свою, сокруши рукою вражиею стену забралов его: глас даша в дому Господни яко в день праздника.
The LORD has cast off his altar, he has abhorred his sanctuary, he has given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the LORD, as in the day of a solemn feast.
8 Иф. Обратися Господь разсыпати стену дщере Сиони: протяже меру, не отврати руки Своея от попрания: и сетова предградие, и ограда вкупе изнеможе.
The LORD has purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he has stretched out a line, he has not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
9 Теф. Врастоша в землю врата ея, погуби и сокруши вереи ея, царя ея и князи ея во языцех, несть закона, и пророцы ея не видеша видения от Господа.
Her gates are sunk into the ground; he has destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the LORD.
10 Иод. Седоша на земли, умолкоша старейшины дщере Сиони, посыпаша персть на главы своя, препоясашася во вретища, низведоша в землю старейшин дев Иерусалимских.
The elders of the daughter of Zion sit on the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust on their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
11 Каф. Оскудеша очи мои в слезах, смутися сердце мое, излияся на землю слава моя о сокрушении дщере людий моих, внегда оскуде младенец и ссущий на стогнах градских.
My eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured on the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
12 Ламед. Матерем своим рекоша: где пшеница и вино? Внегда разслабленым быти им, яко язвеным на стогнах градских, егда изливахуся души их в лоно матерей их.
They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
13 Мем. Что ти засвидетелствую? Или что уподоблю тебе, дщи Иерусалимля? Кто тя спасет и кто тя утешит, девице, дщи Сионя? Яко возвеличися чаша сокрушения твоего, кто тя изцелит?
What thing shall I take to witness for you? what thing shall I liken to you, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to you, that I may comfort you, O virgin daughter of Zion? for your breach is great like the sea: who can heal you?
14 Нун. Пророцы твои видеша тебе суетная и безумие и не открыша о неправде твоей, еже возвратити пленение твое, и видеша тебе словеса суетная и изриновения.
Your prophets have seen vain and foolish things for you: and they have not discovered your iniquity, to turn away your captivity; but have seen for you false burdens and causes of banishment.
15 Самех. Восплескаша рукама о тебе вси минующии путем, позвиздаша и покиваша главою своею о дщери Иерусалимли, рекуще: сей ли град, венец славы, веселие всея земли?
All that pass by clap their hands at you; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
16 Аин. Отверзоша на тя уста своя вси врази твои, позвиздаша и поскрежеташа зубы своими и реша: поглотим ю: обаче сей день, егоже чаяхом, обретохом его, видехом.
All your enemies have opened their mouth against you: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.
17 Фи. Сотвори Господь, яже помысли, сконча словеса Своя, яже заповеда от дний первых: разори и не пощаде, и возвесели о тебе врага, вознесе рог стужающаго ти.
The LORD has done that which he had devised; he has fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he has thrown down, and has not pitied: and he has caused your enemy to rejoice over you, he has set up the horn of your adversaries.
18 Цади. Возопи сердце их ко Господу, стены дщере Сиони да излиют якоже водотеча слезы день и нощь: не даждь покоя себе, и да не умолкнет зеница очию твоею.
Their heart cried to the LORD, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give yourself no rest; let not the apple of your eye cease.
19 Коф. Востани, поучися в нощи в начале стражбы твоея, пролий яко воду сердце твое пред лицем Господним, воздвигни к Нему руце твои о душах младенец твоих, разслабленых гладом в начале всех исходов.
Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out your heart like water before the face of the LORD: lift up your hands toward him for the life of your young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
20 Реш. Виждь, Господи, и призри, кого еси отребил сице? Еда снедят жены плод утробы своея? Отребление сотвори повар, избиют ли младенцев ссущих сосцы? Убиеши ли во святыни Господни жерца и пророка?
Behold, O LORD, and consider to whom you have done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 Шин. Успоша на исходищих отрок и старец: девицы моя и юноты мои отидоша в плен, мечем и гладом избил еси, в день гнева Твоего сварил еси, не пощадел.
The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; you have slain them in the day of your anger; you have killed, and not pitied.
22 Фав. Призвал еси яко день праздника пришелствия моя окрест, и не бысть в день гнева Господня уцелевый и оставыйся, яко сотворих возмощи и умножих враги моя вся.
You have called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the LORD’s anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up has my enemy consumed.
