От Луки 15
1 Приближались к Нему все мытари и грешники слушать Его.
Many [HYP] tax collectors and [others whom people considered to be] habitual sinners kept coming to Jesus to listen to him teach.
2 Фарисеи же и книжники роптали, говоря: Он принимает грешников и ест с ними.
The Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws [who were there] [SYN] began to grumble, saying, “This man welcomes sinners and he also [defiles himself by eating] with them!”
3 Но Он сказал им следующую притчу:
So Jesus told them this parable:
4 кто из вас, имея сто овец и потеряв одну из них, не оставит девяноста девяти в пустыне и не пойдет за пропавшею, пока не найдет ее?
“Suppose that one of you had 100 sheep. If one of them were lost, (you [(sg)] would certainly leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it./would you not leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it?) [RHQ]
5 А найдя, возьмет ее на плечи свои с радостью
When you [(sg)] found it, you would put it on your shoulders and be happy.
6 и, придя домой, созовет друзей и соседей и скажет им: порадуйтесь со мною: я нашел мою пропавшую овцу.
When you brought it home, you would call together your friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost!’
7 Сказываю вам, что так на небесах более радости будет об одном грешнике кающемся, нежели о девяноста девяти праведниках, не имеющих нужды в покаянии.
I tell you [(pl)] that similarly [God] will be very happy about each and every sinner who turns from doing evil. God is not happy about 99 people who [think that they] are [IRO] righteous and think that they do not need to turn from doing evil.
8 Или какая женщина, имея десять драхм, если потеряет одну драхму, не зажжет свечи и не станет мести комнату и искать тщательно, пока не найдет,
Or, suppose that a woman has ten [very valuable] silver coins. If she loses one of them, (she will certainly light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it!/will she not light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it?) [RHQ]
9 а найдя, созовет подруг и соседок и скажет: порадуйтесь со мною: я нашла потерянную драхму.
When she finds it, she will call together her friends and neighbors and say, ‘Be happy with me, [because] I have found the coin that I lost!’
10 Так, говорю вам, бывает радость у Ангелов Божиих и об одном грешнике кающемся.
I tell you that similarly the angels will be happy about [even just] one sinner who turns from doing evil.”
11 Еще сказал: у некоторого человека было два сына;
Then [Jesus told them this parable to compare what the Pharisees and teachers of the Jewish law thought about those who turn from their sinful behavior with what God thinks about such people]. He said, “A certain man had two sons.
12 и сказал младший из них отцу: отче! дай мне следующую мне часть имения. И отец разделил им имение.
One day the younger son said to his father, ‘Father, [I do not want to wait until you(sg) die]. Give me now the share of your property that belongs to me!’ So the man divided his property between his two sons.
13 По прошествии немногих дней младший сын, собрав все, пошел в дальнюю сторону и там расточил имение свое, живя распутно.
A few days later, the younger son [sold his share]. He gathered his money and other things together and went to a country far away. There he spent all his money foolishly in reckless/wild living.
14 Когда же он прожил все, настал великий голод в той стране, и он начал нуждаться;
After he had spent all his money, there was a great famine throughout that country. And soon he did not have enough [food to] eat.
15 и пошел, пристал к одному из жителей страны той, а тот послал его на поля свои пасти свиней;
So he went to one of the landowners in that area and asked for work. The man sent him to work taking care of the pigs in his field.
16 и он рад был наполнить чрево свое рожками, которые ели свиньи, но никто не давал ему.
[Because he was very hungry], he would have been glad to eat the bean pods that the pigs ate. But no one gave him anything to eat.
17 Придя же в себя, сказал: сколько наемников у отца моего избыточествуют хлебом, а я умираю от голода;
Finally he thought clearly about what he had done. He said to himself, ‘All of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food! They have more [SYN] than they can eat, but here I am dying because I do not have anything to eat [HYP]!
18 встану, пойду к отцу моему и скажу ему: отче! я согрешил против неба и пред тобою
So I will leave here and go back to my father. I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against God [MTY, EUP] and against you [(sg)].
19 и уже недостоин называться сыном твоим; прими меня в число наемников твоих.
I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son. Just hire me to be like one of the other hired servants.”’
20 Встал и пошел к отцу своему. И когда он был еще далеко, увидел его отец его и сжалился; и, побежав, пал ему на шею и целовал его.
So he left there and went back to his father’s house. But while he was still some distance from the house, his father saw him. He pitied him. He ran to his son and embraced him and kissed him [on the cheek].
21 Сын же сказал ему: отче! я согрешил против неба и пред тобою и уже недостоин называться сыном твоим.
His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against God [MTY/EUP] and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son.’
22 А отец сказал рабам своим: принесите лучшую одежду и оденьте его, и дайте перстень на руку его и обувь на ноги;
But his father said to his servants, ‘Go quickly and bring to me the best robe [in the house]! Then put it on my son. Put a ring on his finger [to show that I am honoring him again as my son]! Put sandals on his feet [to show that I do not consider him to be a slave]!
23 и приведите откормленного теленка, и заколите; станем есть и веселиться!
Then bring the fat calf and kill it [and cook it]. We [(inc)] must eat and celebrate,
24 ибо этот сын мой был мертв и ожил, пропадал и нашелся. И начали веселиться.
because my son has returned! [It is as though] [MET] he was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now has been found!’ So they did that, and they all began to celebrate.
25 Старший же сын его был на поле; и возвращаясь, когда приблизился к дому, услышал пение и ликование;
While all that was happening, the man’s older son was out [working] in the field. When he came near to the house, he heard [people playing] music and dancing.
26 и, призвав одного из слуг, спросил: что это такое?
He called one of the servants and asked what was happening.
27 Он сказал ему: брат твой пришел, и отец твой заколол откормленного теленка, потому что принял его здоровым.
The servant said to him, ‘Your [younger] brother has come [home] Your father has [told us to] kill the fat calf [to celebrate] because your brother has returned safe and healthy.’
28 Он осердился и не хотел войти. Отец же его, выйдя, звал его.
[But] the older brother was angry. He refused to enter [the house]. So his father came out and pleaded with him [to come in].
29 Но он сказал в ответ отцу: вот, я столько лет служу тебе и никогда не преступал приказания твоего, но ты никогда не дал мне и козленка, чтобы мне повеселиться с друзьями моими;
But he replied to his father, ‘Listen to me! For many years I have worked for you like a slave. I always obeyed everything you told me to do. But you never even gave me a young goat, so that I could [kill it and cook it and] celebrate with my friends.
30 а когда этот сын твой, расточивший имение свое с блудницами, пришел, ты заколол для него откормленного теленка.
But this son of yours spent all the [money he got from] what you gave him. He spent it [to pay for sleeping with] prostitutes! Yes, now he has returned home, [but it is not fair that] you have told your [servants] to kill the fat calf [and cook it] for him!’
31 Он же сказал ему: сын мой! ты всегда со мною, и все мое твое,
But his father said to him, ‘My son, you have always been with me, and all my property [that I did not give to your brother] has been yours.
32 а о том надобно было радоваться и веселиться, что брат твой сей был мертв и ожил, пропадал и нашелся.
But [it is as though] [MET] your brother was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now he has been found! So it is appropriate for us to be happy and celebrate!’”
