Книга пророка Софонии 1
1 Слово Господне, иже бысть к Софонии сыну Хусиину, сыну Годолиину, Амориину, Езекиину, во дни Иосии сына Амоня, царя Иудина.
The word of Jehovah which came to Zephaniah, the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah.
2 Оскудением да оскудеют вся от лица земли, глаголет Господь:
I will utterly sweep away everything off of the surface of the earth, says Jehovah.
3 да оскудеет человек и скоти, да оскудеют птицы небесныя и рыбы морския, и да изнемогут нечестивии, и изиму беззаконныя от лица земли, глаголет Господь.
I will sweep away people and animals. I will sweep away the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, and the idols that cause the wicked to stumble. I will remove humankind from the surface of the earth, says Jehovah.
4 И простру руку Мою на Иуду и на вся живущыя во Иерусалиме: и изиму от места сего имена Ваалова и имена жреческа со жерцами,
I will stretch out my hand against Judah, and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, the name of the idolatrous priests along with the priests,
5 и покланяющихся на покровех воинству небесному и кленущихся Господем и кленущихся царем своим,
those who worship the host of heaven on the housetops, those who worship and swear by Jehovah and also swear by Milcom,
6 и укланяющихся от Господа и не ищущих Господа и не придержащихся Господа.
those who have turned back from following Jehovah, and those who haven't sought Jehovah nor inquired after him.
7 Убойтеся от лица Господа Бога, зане близ день Господень, яко уготова Господь жертву Свою и освяти званныя Своя.
Be silent at the presence of Jehovah, for the day of Jehovah is at hand. For Jehovah has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
8 И будет в день жертвы Господни: и отмщу на князи и на дом царский и на вся оболченныя во одеяния чуждая,
It will happen in the day of Jehovah's sacrifice that I will punish the princes, the king's sons, and all those who are clothed with foreign attire.
9 и отмщу яве на вся предвратныя в день той, исполняющыя храм Господа Бога своего нечестием и лестию.
In that day, I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, who fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
10 И будет в день он, глаголет Господь, глас вопля от врат избодающих и плачь от вторых и сотрение велие от холмов.
On that day, says Jehovah, there will be the noise of a cry from the Fish Gate, a wailing from the Second Quarter, and a loud crash from the hills.
11 Плачите, живущии в посеченней, яко уподобишася вси людие ханаану, и потребишася вси величающиися сребром.
Wail, you inhabitants of the market district, for all the merchants will be destroyed, and all those who weigh out silver will be removed.
12 И будет в той день, изыщу Иерусалима со светилником и отмщу на мужы нерадящыя о стражбах своих, глаголющыя в сердцах своих: не имать блага сотворити Господь, ниже имать озлобити.
It will happen at that time that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and I will punish the people who are complacent, who say in their heart, "Jehovah will not do good, nor will he do harm."
13 И будет сила их в расхищение и домы их в разорение: и созиждут жилища и не имут пожити в них, и насадят винограды и не имут пити вина их:
Their wealth will be looted and their houses a desolation. Yes, they will build houses, but won't inhabit them. They will plant vineyards, but won't drink their wine.
14 яко близ день Господень великий, близ и скор зело, глас дне Господня горек и жесток учинися.
The great day of Jehovah is near. Near and approaching very rapidly. The cry on the day of Jehovah is bitter. In it the warrior shouts his battle cry.
15 Силен день гнева день той, день скорби и нужды, день безгодия и изчезновения, день тмы и мрака, день облака и мглы,
That day is a day of wrath, a day of distress and anguish, a day of devastation and ruin, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
16 день трубы и вопля на грады твердыя и на углы высокия.
a day of the trumpet and battle cry against the fortified cities, and against the high corner towers.
17 И оскорблю человеки, и пойдут яко слепи, зане Господеви прегрешиша, и излиется кровь их яко персть, и плоти их яко лайна:
I will bring distress on the people, that they will walk like blind men, because they have sinned against Jehovah, and their blood will be poured out like dust, and their flesh like dung.
18 и сребро их и злато их не возможет изяти их в день гнева Господня, и огнем рвения Его поядена будет вся земля: зане скончание и тщание сотворит на вся живущыя на земли.
Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's wrath, but the whole land will be devoured by the fire of his jealousy; for he will bring terrifying destruction on all the inhabitants of the land.
