< Isaiah 54 >

1 “Sing, barren, you who didn’t give birth! Break out into singing, and cry aloud, you who didn’t travail with child! For more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife,” says the LORD.
Возвеселися, неплоды, нераждающая возгласи и возопий, нечревоболевшая, яко многа чада пустыя паче, нежели имущия мужа.
2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch out the curtains of your habitations; don’t spare; lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.
Рече бо Господь: разшири место, кущи твоея и покровов твоих, водрузи, не пощади, продолжи ужя твоя и колие твое укрепи,
3 For you will spread out on the right hand and on the left; and your offspring will possess the nations and settle in desolate cities.
еще на десно и на лево простри: и семя твое языки наследит, и грады опустевшыя населиши.
4 “Don’t be afraid, for you will not be ashamed. Don’t be confounded, for you will not be disappointed. For you will forget the shame of your youth. You will remember the reproach of your widowhood no more.
Не бойся, яко посрамлена еси, ниже устыдися, яко укорена еси: понеже срамоту вечную забудеши и укоризны вдовства твоего не помянеши ктому.
5 For your Maker is your husband; the LORD of Hosts is his name. The Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer. He will be called the God of the whole earth.
Яко Господь Творяй тя, Господь Саваоф имя Ему: и Избавивый тя Святый Бог Израилев, всей земли прозовется.
6 For the LORD has called you as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of youth, when she is cast off,” says your God.
Не яко жену оставлену и малодушну призва тя Господь, ниже яко жену из юности возненавидену, рече Бог твой.
7 “For a small moment I have forsaken you, but I will gather you with great mercies.
На время мало оставих тя, а с милостию великою помилую тя:
8 In overflowing wrath I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting loving kindness I will have mercy on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.
во ярости мале отвратих лице Мое от тебе, но милостию вечною помилую тя, рече Избавивый тя Господь.
9 “For this is like the waters of Noah to me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah will no more go over the earth, so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
От воды, яже при Нои, сие Ми есть, якоже кляхся Ему во время оно на землю, не разгневатися о тебе ктому, ниже во прещении твоем
10 For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed, but my loving kindness will not depart from you, and my covenant of peace will not be removed,” says the LORD who has mercy on you.
горы преставити, и холми твои не предвигнутся: тако ниже, яже от Мене к тебе, милость оскудеет, ниже завет мира твоего преставится: рече бо милостив к тебе Господь.
11 “You afflicted, tossed with storms, and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in beautiful colors, and lay your foundations with sapphires.
Смиренная и колеблемая не имела еси утешения: се, Аз уготовляю тебе анфракс камень твой и на основание твое сапфир:
12 I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.
и положу забрала твоя иаспис, и врата твоя камение кристалла, и ограждение твое камение избранное,
13 All your children will be taught by the LORD, and your children’s peace will be great.
и вся сыны твоя научены Богом, и во мнозе мире чада твоя.
14 You will be established in righteousness. You will be far from oppression, for you will not be afraid, and far from terror, for it shall not come near you.
И правдою возградишися: удалися от неправеднаго, и не убоишися, и трепет не приближится тебе.
15 Behold, they may gather together, but not by me. Whoever gathers together against you will fall because of you.
Се, пришелцы приидут к тебе Мною и вселятся у тебе и к тебе прибегнут.
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame, and forges a weapon for his work; and I have created the destroyer to destroy.
Се, Аз создах тя, не якоже кузнец раздуваяй углие и износя сосуд на дело: Аз же создах тя не на пагубу, еже истлити.
17 No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the LORD’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,” says the LORD.
Всяк сосуд соделан на тя не благопоспешу, и всяк глас, иже на тя востанет на прю, одолееши им всем: повиннии же твои будут в нем есть наследие служащым Господеви, и вы будете Мне праведни, глаголет Господь.
