Книга пророка Исаии 25

1 Господи Боже мой, прославлю Тя, воспою имя Твое, яко сотворил еси чудная дела, совет древний истинный: да будет, Господи.

O Lord God, I will glorify you, I will sing to your name; for you have done wonderful things, [even] an ancient [and] faithful counsel. So be it.

2 Яко положил еси грады в персть, грады твердыя, еже пасти основанием их, нечестивых град да не созиждется во век.

For you have made cities a heap, [even] cities [made] strong that their foundations should not fall: the city of ungodly men shall not be built for ever.

3 Сего ради благословят Тя людие нищии, и гради человеков обидимых возблагословят Тя.

Therefore shall the poor people bless you, and cities of injured men shall bless you.

4 Был бо еси всякому граду смиренному помощник, и изнемогающым за оскудение покров, от человек злых избавиши их: покров жаждущих, и дух человеков обидимых.

For you have been a helper to every lowly city, and a shelter to them that were disheartened by reason of poverty: you shall deliver them from wicked men: [you have been] a shelter of them that thirst, and a refreshing air to injured men.

5 Аки человецы малодушнии жаждущии в Сионе, яко избавиши их от человек нечестивых, имже нас предал еси.

[We were] as faint-hearted men thirsting in Sion, by reason of ungodly men to whom you did deliver us.

6 И сотворит Господь Саваоф всем языком: на горе сей испиют радость, испиют вино,

And the Lord of hosts shall make [a feast] for all the nations: on this mount they shall drink gladness, they shall drink wine:

7 помажутся миром на горе сей: предаждь сия вся языком: той бо совет на вся языки.

they shall anoint themselves with ointment in this mountain. Impart you all these things to the nations; for this is [God's] counsel upon all the nations.

8 Пожре смерть возмогши, и паки отят Господь Бог всякую слезу от всякаго лица: поношение людий отят от всея земли, уста бо Господня глаголаша (сия).

Death has prevailed and swallowed [men] up; but again the Lord God has taken away every tear from every face. He has taken away the reproach of [his] people from all the earth: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it.

9 И рекут в день оный: се, Бог наш, Наньже уповахом, и спасет нас: Сей Господь, потерпехом Его, и возрадовахомся и возвеселихомся о спасении нашем.

And in that day they shall say, behold our God in whom we have trusted, and he shall save us: this [is] the Lord; we have waited for him, and we have exulted, and will rejoice in our salvation.

10 Покой даст Бог на горе сей, и поперется Моавитида, якоже топчут ток колесницами.

God will give rest on this mountain, and the country of Moab shall be trodden down, as they tread the floor with waggons.

11 И воздвигнет руце свои, якоже и той смири, еже погубити: и смирит гордыню его, на няже руце возложи.

And he shall spread forth his hands, even as he also brings down [man] to destroy [him]: and he shall bring low his pride [in regard to the thing] on which he has laid his hands.

12 И высоту убежища ограды твоея смирит, и обнизится даже до земли.

And he shall bring down the height of the refuge of the wall, and it shall come down even to the ground.
