Книга пророка Авдия 1
1 Видение Авдиино: сия глаголет Господь Бог Идумеи: слух слышах от Господа, известие во языки посла: востаните, и востанем на ню ратию.
The vision of Obadiah. This is what Jehovah says about Edom. We have heard news from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, "Arise, and let's rise up against her in battle.
2 Се, мала дах тя во языцех, безчестен ты еси зело.
Look, I have made you small among the nations. You are greatly despised.
3 Презорство сердца твоего воздвиже тя живущаго в пещерах каменных: возвышаяй храмину свою, глаголяй в сердцы своем: кто мя свержет на землю?
The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, who says in his heart, 'Who will bring me down to the ground?'
4 Аще вознесешися якоже орел и аще положиши гнездо твое среде звезд, и оттуду свергу тя, глаголет Господь.
Though you mount on high as the eagle, and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there," says Jehovah.
5 Аще бы татие влезли к тебе, или разбойницы нощию, камо бы повержен был еси? Еда не украли бы доволных себе? Или аще бы объемлющии виноград влезли к тебе, еда бы не оставили гроздия?
"If thieves came to you, if robbers by night—oh, what disaster awaits you? wouldn't they only steal until they had enough? If grape pickers came to you, wouldn't they leave some gleaning grapes?
6 Како обыскася Исав, и взята быша сокровенная его?
How Esau will be ransacked. How his hidden treasures are sought out.
7 Даже до предел испустиша тя: вси мужие завета твоего сопротивишася ти, премогоша тя мужие мирницы твои: (ядущии с тобою) положиша лесть под тобою, несть смысла в них.
All the men of your alliance have brought you on your way, even to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. Those who eat bread with you lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him."
8 В той день, глаголет Господь, погублю премудрыя от Идумеи и смысл от горы Исавовы:
"Won't I in that day," says Jehovah, "destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
9 и убоятся воини твои, иже от Феман, да отимется человек от горы Исавовы.
Your mighty men, Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
10 Посечения ради и нечестия, еже на брата твоего Иакова, покрыет тя студ, и отвержен будеши во век.
For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.
11 От негоже дне сопротивился еси во дни пленяющих иноплеменников силу его, и чуждии внидоша во врата его и о Иерусалиме вергоша жребия, и ты был еси яко един от них.
In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, even you were like one of them.
12 И да не презриши дне брата твоего в день чуждих, и да не порадуешися о сынех Иудиных в день погибели их, и да не велеречиши в день скорби:
But do not look down on your brother in the day of his disaster, and do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction. Do not speak proudly in the day of distress.
13 и не входи во врата людий Моих в день болезни их, и не презри и ты сонма их в день потребления их, и не совещайся на силу их в день погибели их:
Do not enter into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity. Do not look down on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither seize their wealth on the day of their calamity.
14 ниже настой на исходы их потребити избегающыя их, ниже заключай бежащыя их в день скорби.
Do not stand in the crossroads to cut off those of his who escape. Do not deliver up those of his who remain in the day of distress.
15 Понеже близ день Господень на вся языки: якоже сотворил еси, сице будет ти, воздаяние твое воздастся на главу твою.
For the day of Jehovah is near all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you. Your deeds will return upon your own head.
16 Понеже якоже еси пил на горе Моей святей, испиют вси языцы вино, испиют и снидут, и будут яко не бывшии.
For as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink continually. Yes, they will drink, swallow down, and will be as though they had not been.
17 В горе же Сиони будет спасение, и будет свята: и наследят дом Иаковль наследивших я.
But in Mount Zion, there will be those who escape, and it will be holy. The house of Jacob will possess those who dispossessed them.
18 И будет дом Иаковль огнь, дом же Иосифов пламень, а дом Исавов в тростие, и возгорятся на них и поядят я, и не будет избегаяй дому Исавову, яко Господь глагола.
The house of Jacob will be a fire, the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble. They will burn among them, and devour them. There will not be any remaining to the house of Esau." Indeed, Jehovah has spoken.
19 И наследят иже во нагеве гору Исавову, и иже в раздолии иноплеменники: и возмут гору Ефремову и поле Самарийско, и Вениамина и Галаадитиду.
Those of the Negev will possess the mountain of Esau, and those of the lowland, the Philistines. They will possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria. Benjamin will possess Gilead.
20 И преселения начало сие сыном Израилевым, земля Хананейска до Сарепты: преселение же Иерусалимле до Ефрафа: и наследят грады Нагевовы.
The captives of this army of the children of Israel, who are among the Canaanites, will possess even to Zarephath; and the captives of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the Negev.
21 И взыдут спасаемии от горы Сиони, еже отмстити гору Исавлю, и будет царство Господеви.
Those who have been saved will go up on Mount Zion to judge the mountains of Esau, and the kingdom will be Jehovah's.
