Jeremiah 21
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when king Zedekiah sent to him Pashur the son of Melchiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
Слово, еже бысть от Господа ко Иеремии, егда посла к нему царь Седекиа Пасхора сына Мелхиина и Софонию сына Васаиева, священника, глаголя:
2 Enquire, I pray thee, of the LORD for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon maketh war against us; it may be that the LORD will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
вопроси о нас Господа, яко Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский воста на нас: сотворит ли Господь с нами по всем чудесем Своим, и отидет от нас?
3 Then said Jeremiah to them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
И рече Иеремиа к ним: тако рцыте Седекии: сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев:
4 Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which ye fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans, who besiege you outside the walls, and I will assemble them into the midst of this city.
се, Аз обращаю оружия бранная, яже суть в руках ваших, имиже вы ополчаетеся на царя Вавилонска и Халдейска, иже обстоят вас окрест вне стен: и соберу та посреде града сего,
5 And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
и поборю Аз по вас рукою простертою и мышцею крепкою с яростию и гневом великим,
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast: they shall die by a great pestilence.
и побию всех обитающих во граде сем, человеки и скоты, губителством великим, и измрут.
7 And afterward, saith the LORD, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life: and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.
И по сих, тако глаголет Господь, дам Седекию царя Иудина и рабы его, и люди его и оставльшыяся во граде сем от губителства и глада и меча, в руку Навуходоносора царя Вавилонска и в руку врагов их и в руку ищущих душ их, и побиет их острием меча: и не пощажу их, ниже милостив буду им.
8 And to this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
И к людем сим речеши: сия глаголет Господь: се, Аз даю пред вами путь живота и путь смерти:
9 He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be to him for a prize.
иже обитает во граде сем, умрет мечем и гладом и губителством, а исходяй, иже прибежит ко Халдеом обстоящым вас, жив будет, и будет душа его в плен, и жив будет.
10 For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith the LORD: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
Утвердих бо лице Мое на град сей во злая, а не во благая, рече Господь: в руки царя Вавилонска предастся, и сожжет его огнем.
11 And concerning the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the LORD;
Доме царя Иудина, слышите слово Господне:
12 O house of David, thus saith the LORD; Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is made desolate out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
доме Давидов, сия глаголет Господь: судите заутра суд и исправите, и избавите силою угнетенаго от руки обидящаго и, да не зажжется яко огнь ярость Моя и возгорится, и не будет угашающаго, ради лукавых умышлений ваших.
13 Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rock of the plain, saith the LORD; who say, Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?
Се, Аз к тебе обитающему во крепце и польне удолии, рече Господь, иже глаголете: кто побиет нас? Или кто внидет в домы нашя?
14 But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the LORD: and I will kindle a fire in its forest, and it shall devour all things on every side of it.
И посещу на вас по лукавым начинанием вашым, рече Господь, и возжгу огнь в лесе его, и пояст вся, яже окрест его.
