Jeremiah 14
1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.
И бысть слово Господне ко Иеремии о бездождии.
2 Judah mourns, and the gates thereof languish; they are black to the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
Рыдала Иудеа, и врата ея разрушишася, и отемнишася на земли, и вопль Иерусалима взыде.
3 And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the pits, and found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads.
И вельможи его послаша менших своих к воде: приидоша на кладязи и не обретоша воды, и отнесоша сосуды своя тщы: постыждени суть и посрамлени, и покрыша главы своя.
4 Because the ground is beat down, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.
И дела земли оскудеша, яко не бяше дождя на землю: постыждени суть земледелцы, покрыша главы своя.
5 Yes, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook it, because there was no grass.
И еленицы на ниве родиша и оставиша, яко не бе травы.
6 And the wild asses did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.
Онагри сташа на камениих, браша в себе ветр яко змиеве, оскудеша очи их, яко не бе травы.
7 O LORD, though our iniquities testify against us, do you it for your name’s sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against you.
Беззакония наша противусташа нам: Господи, сотвори нам ради имене Твоего, яко мнози греси наши пред Тобою, Тебе согрешихом.
8 O the hope of Israel, the savior thereof in time of trouble, why should you be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turns aside to tarry for a night?
Ожидание Израилево, Господи, Спасителю наш во время скорби! Вскую яко пришлец еси на земли и яко путник укланяющься во виталище?
9 Why should you be as a man astonished, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet you, O LORD, are in the middle of us, and we are called by your name; leave us not.
Еда будеши якоже человек спяй, или аки муж не могий спасти? Ты же в нас еси, Господи, и имя Твое призвано бысть на нас, не забуди нас.
10 Thus says the LORD to this people, Thus have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet, therefore the LORD does not accept them; he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.
Сия глаголет Господь людем сим: возлюбиша подвизати нозе свои и не упокоишася, и Бог не благопоспеши в них, ныне воспомянет беззакония их и посетит грехи их.
11 Then said the LORD to me, Pray not for this people for their good.
И рече Господь ко мне: не молися о людех сих во благо:
12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
егда поститися будут, не услышу прошения их, и аще принесут всесожжения и жертвы, не благоволю в них: яко мечем и гладом и мором Аз скончаю их.
13 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say to them, You shall not see the sword, neither shall you have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
И рекох: сый Господи Боже, се, пророцы их прорицают и глаголют: не узрите меча, и глад не будет вам, но истину и мир дам на земли и на месте сем.
14 Then the LORD said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spoke to them: they prophesy to you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nothing, and the deceit of their heart.
И рече Господь ко мне: лживо пророцы прорицают во имя Мое, не послах их, ни заповедах им, ни глаголал есмь к ним: понеже видения лжива и гадания и волшебства и произволы сердца своего тии прорицают вам.
15 Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
Сего ради сия глаголет Господь о пророцех, иже пророчествуют во имя Мое ложная, и Аз не послах их, иже глаголют: мечь и глад не будет на земли сей: смертию лютою умрут и гладом скончаются пророцы тии.
16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness on them.
И людие, имже тии пророчествуют, будут извержени на путех Иерусалима от лица меча и глада, и не будет погребаяй их, и жены их и сынове их и дщери их, и излию на них злая их.
17 Therefore you shall say this word to them; Let my eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
И речеши к ним слово сие: да изведут очи ваши слезы день и нощь, и да не престанут, яко сотрением великим сотрена (дева) дщерь людий моих и язвою злою зело.
18 If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yes, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
Аще изыду на поле, и се, заклани мечем: и аще вниду во град, и се, истаявшии гладом: яко пророк и священник отидоша в землю, еяже не ведяху.
19 Have you utterly rejected Judah? has your soul loathed Zion? why have you smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
Еда отмещущь отвергл еси Иуду, и от Сиона отступи душа Твоя? Вскую поразил еси нас, и несть нам изцеления? Ждахом мира, и не бяху благая: времене уврачевания, и се, боязнь.
20 We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against you.
Познахом, Господи, грехи нашя, беззакония отец наших, яко согрешихом пред Тобою.
21 Do not abhor us, for your name’s sake, do not disgrace the throne of your glory: remember, break not your covenant with us.
Престани ради имене Твоего, не погуби престола славы Твоея: воспомяни, не разори завета Твоего иже с нами.
22 Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? are not you he, O LORD our God? therefore we will wait on you: for you have made all these things.
Еда есть во изваянных языческих, иже дождит? Или небеса могут дати влагу свою? Не Ты ли еси, Господи Боже наш? И пождем Тебе, Господи, Ты бо сотворил еси вся сия.
