Isaiah 34

1 O nations and peoples: draw near, and listen, and pay attention! Let the earth and its fullness hear, the entire world and all its offspring.

Приступите, языцы, и услышите, князи: да слышит земля и живущии на ней, вселенная и людие, иже на ней.

2 For the indignation of the Lord is over all the nations, and his fury is over all their armies. He has put them to death, and he has given them over to slaughter.

Зане ярость Господня на вся языки и гнев на число их, еже погубити их и предати я на заклание.

3 Their slain will be cast out, and from their carcasses a foul odor will rise up. The mountains will languish because of their blood.

И язвении их повергнутся и мертвецы, и взыдет их смрад, и намокнут горы кровию их:

4 And the entire army of the heavens will languish, and the heavens will be folded like a book. And their entire army will fall away, as a leaf falls from the vine or from the fig tree.

и истают вся силы небесныя, и свиется небо аки свиток, и вся звезды спадут яко листвие с лозы, и якоже спадает листвие смоковницы.

5 “For my sword in heaven has been inebriated. Behold, it will descend upon Idumea, and upon the people of my slaughter, unto judgment.”

Упися мечь Мой на небеси: се, на Идумею снидет и на люди пагубныя с судом.

6 The sword of the Lord has been filled with blood. It has been thickened by the blood of lambs and he-goats, by the innermost blood of rams. For the victim of the Lord is in Bozrah, and a great slaughter is in the land of Edom.

Мечь Господень наполнися крове, растолсте туком, от крове козлов и агнцев и от тука козлов и овнов: яко жертва Господеви в Восоре, и заклание велие во Идумеи.

7 And the single-horned beasts will descend with them, and the bulls along with the mighty. Their land will be inebriated by blood, and their ground by the fat of their lazy ones.

И падут с ними сильнии, и овны и юнцы, и упиется земля от крове и от тука их насытится:

8 For this is the day of the vengeance of the Lord, the year of retribution for the judgment of Zion.

день бо суда Господня, и лето воздаяния суда Сионя.

9 And its torrents will be turned into tar, and its soil into sulfur. And its land will become burning tar.

И обратятся дебри его в смолу, и земля его в жупел,

10 Night and day, it will not be extinguished; its smoke will rise up without ceasing. From generation to generation it will remain desolate. No one will pass through it, forever and ever.

и будет земля его горящи яко смола днем и нощию, и не угаснет в вечное время, и взыдет дым ея высоце, в роды своя опустеет.

11 The pelican and the hedgehog will possess it. And the ibis and the raven will live in it. And a measuring line will be extended over it, so that it may be reduced to nothing, and a plumb line, unto desolation.

И во время много птицы и ежеве, совы и вранове возгнездятся в нем: и возложат нань уже землемерно пустыни, и онокентаври вселятся в нем.

12 Its nobles will not be in that place. Instead, they will call upon the king, and all its leaders will be as nothing.

Князи его не будут: царие бо и вельможи его будут в пагубу.

13 And thorns and nettles will rise up in its houses, and the thistle in its fortified places. And it will be the lair of serpents and the pasture of ostriches.

И возникнут во градех их терновая древеса и во твердынех его, и будут селения сирином и селища струфионом:

14 And demons and monsters will meet, and the hairy ones will cry out to one another. There, the ogress has lain down and found rest for herself.

и срящутся беси со онокентавры и возопиют друг ко другу, ту почиют онокентаври, обретше себе покоища:

15 In that place, the hedgehog has kept its den, and has raised its young, and has dug around them, and has kept them warm in its shadow. In that place, the birds of prey have joined together, one to another.

тамо возгнездится ежь, и сохранит земля дети его со утверждением: тамо елени сретошася и увидеша лица друг друга.

16 Search and read diligently in the book of the Lord. Not one of them was lacking; not one has sought for the other. For what has proceeded from my mouth, he has commanded, and his very Spirit has gathered them.

Числом преидоша, и един и них не погибе, друг друга не взыска, яко Господь заповеда им, и дух Его собра я.

17 And he has cast lots over them. And his hand has distributed this to them by measure. They will possess it, even unto eternity. From generation to generation, they will dwell in it.

И Той вержет им жребия, и рука Его раздели пастися: в вечное время наследите, в роды родов почиют в нем.
