< Isaiah 58 >

1 Cry out! Cease not! Exalt your voice like a trumpet, and announce to my people their wicked acts, and to the house of Jacob their sins.
Возопий крепостию и не пощади: яко трубу возвыси глас твой и возвести людем Моим грехи их и дому Иаковлю беззакония их.
2 For they also seek me, from day to day, and they are willing to know my ways, like a nation which has done justice and has not abandoned the judgment of their God. They petition me for judgments of justice. They are willing to draw near to God.
Мене день от дне ищут и разумети пути Моя желают, яко людие правду сотворившии и суда Бога своего не оставившии: просят ныне у Мене суда праведна и приближитися ко Господу желают, глаголюще:
3 “Why have we fasted, and you have not taken notice? Why have we humbled our souls, and you have not acknowledged it?” Behold, in the day of your fasting, your own will is found, and you petition for payment from all your debtors.
что яко постихомся, и не увидел еси? Смирихом душы нашя, и не уведел еси? Во дни бо пощений ваших обретаете воли вашя, и вся подручныя вашя томите:
4 Behold, you fast with strife and contention, and you strike with the fist impiously. Do not choose to fast as you have done even to this day. Then your outcry will be heard on high.
аще в судех и сварех поститеся и биете пястьми смиреннаго, вскую Мне поститеся якоже днесь, еже услышану быти с воплем гласу вашему?
5 Is this a fast such as I have chosen: for a man to afflict his soul for a day, to contort his head in a circle, and to spread sackcloth and ashes? Should you call this a fast and a day acceptable to the Lord?
Не сицеваго поста Аз избрах и дне, еже смирити человеку душу свою: ниже аще слячеши яко серп выю твою, и вретище и пепел постелеши, ниже тако наречете пост приятен.
6 Is not this, instead, the kind of fast that I have chosen? Release the constraints of impiety; relieve the burdens that oppress; freely forgive those who are broken; and break apart every burden.
Не таковаго (бо) поста Аз избрах, глаголет Господь: но разрешай всяк соуз неправды, разрушай обдолжения насильных писаний, отпусти сокрушенныя во свободу и всякое писание неправедное раздери:
7 Break your bread with the hungry, and lead the destitute and the homeless into your house. When you see someone naked, cover him, and do not despise your own flesh.
раздробляй алчущым хлеб твой и нищыя безкровныя введи в дом твой: аще видиши нага, одей, и от свойственных племене твоего не презри.
8 Then your light will break forth like the morning, and your health will improve quickly, and your justice will go before your face, and the glory of the Lord will gather you up.
Тогда разверзется рано свет твой, и изцеления твоя скоро возсияют, и предидет пред тобою правда твоя, и слава Божия оымет тя.
9 Then you will call, and the Lord will heed; you will cry out, and he will say, “Here I am,” if you take away the chains from your midst, and cease to point your finger and to speak what is not beneficial.
Тогда воззовеши, и Бог услышит тя, и еще глаголющу ти, речет: се, приидох. Аще отимеши от себе соуз и рукобиение и глагол роптания
10 When you pour out your life for the hungry, and you satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will rise up in darkness, and your darkness will be like the midday.
и даси алчущему хлеб от души твоея и душу смиренную насытиши, тогда возсияет во тме свет твой, и тма твоя будет яко полудне,
11 And the Lord will give you rest continually, and he will fill your soul with splendor, and he will free your bones, and you will be like a watered garden and like a fountain of water whose waters will not fail.
и будет Бог твой с тобою присно: и насытишися, якоже желает душа твоя, и кости твоя утучнеют, и будут яко вертоград напоен, и яко источник, емуже не оскуде вода: и кости твоя прозябнут яко трава, и разботеют, и наследят роды родов.
12 And places that have been desolate for ages will be built up by you. You will raise a foundation for generation after generation. And you will be called the repairer of hedges, who turns the roadways into quiet places.
И созиждутся пустыни твоя вечныя, и будут основания твоя вечная родом родов: и прозовешися здатель оград, и стези твоя посреде упокоиши.
13 If you restrain your foot on the Sabbath, from doing your own will on my holy day, and if you call the Sabbath delightful, and the Holy of the Lord glorious, and if you glorify him, while you do not act according to your own ways, and your own will is not found, not even to speak a word,
Аще отвратиши ногу твою от суббот, еже не творити хотений твоих в день святый, и прозовеши субботы сладостны, святы Богови твоему: не воздвигнеши ноги своея на дело, ниже возглаголеши словесе во гневе из уст твоих,
14 then you will find delight in the Lord, and I will take you up, above the heights of the earth, and I will nourish you with the inheritance of Jacob, your father. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.
и будеши уповая на Господа, и возведет тя на благоты земныя, и ухлебит тя наследием Иакова отца твоего: уста бо Господня глаголаша сия.
