Книга пророка Иеремии 26
1 В начале царства Иоакима сына Иосиина бысть слово сие от Господа:
This message came from the Lord at the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim, son of Josiah king of Judah,
2 тако рече Господь: стани во дворе дому Господня и проповеждь всем Иудеом, входящым кланятися в дом Господень, вся словеса, яже завещах тебе проповедати им, не уйми словесе:
This is what the Lord says: Go and stand in the Temple courtyard and deliver the whole message I have ordered you to give to everyone who comes from all the towns of Judah to worship there. Don't leave out a single word.
3 негли послушают и отвратятся кийждо от пути своего злаго, и почию от зол, яже помышляю сотворити им злых ради начинаний их.
Maybe they'll they will listen, and each of them will give up their evil ways so that I won't have to carry out the disaster I'm planning to bring down on them because of the evil things they do.
4 И речеши: тако рече Господь: аще не послушаете Мене, еже ходити в законех Моих, яже дах пред лицем вашим,
Tell them that this is what the Lord says: If you do not listen to me and follow my law, which I have given you,
5 в послушание словес отрок Моих пророков, ихже Аз посылаю к вам из утра, и послах, и не послушасте Мене,
and if you don't listen to the messages of my servants the prophets—I've sent them to you time and again, but you refused to listen—
6 и дам дом сей якоже Силом, и град сей дам в клятву всем языком всея земли.
then I will destroy this Temple like I did Shiloh, and I will make this city a curse word used by everyone on earth.
7 И слышаша жерцы и лжепророцы и вси людие Иеремию глаголюща словеса сия в дому Господни.
The priests and prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah deliver this message in the Lord's Temple.
8 И бысть, егда Иеремиа преста глаголати вся, елика завеща ему Господь глаголати всем людем, и яша Иеремию жерцы и лжепророцы и вси людие, глаголюще: смертию да умрет,
As soon as he had finished telling everyone all that the Lord had ordered him to say, the priests and prophets and all the people grabbed him, shouting, “You'll die for this!
9 яко прорече имеием Господним, глаголя: якоже Силом будет сей дом, и град сей опустеет от живущих. И собрашася вси людие на Иеремию в дому Господни.
How dare you claim to speak in the Lord's name here in the Temple and declare that it will be destroyed like Shiloh, and that this city will be left empty and abandoned?” Everyone crowded around Jeremiah threatening him in the Lord's Temple.
10 И слышаша князи Иудины словеса сия, и взыдоша от дому царева в дом Господень и седоша во преддверии врат дому Господня новых.
When the leaders of Judah heard what happened they came from the king's palace to the Lord's Temple and sat at the entrance of the New Gate of the Temple to judge the case.
11 И реша жерцы и лжепророцы князем и всем людем, глаголюще: суд смертный человеку сему, яко прорече на сей град, якоже слышасте во ушы ваши.
The priests and prophets complained to the leaders and all the people, “This man is deserves the death penalty because he has committed treason by prophesying against this city. You heard it yourselves!”
12 И рече Иеремиа ко всем князем и ко всем людем, глаголя: Господь посла мя прорещи на дом сей и на град сей вся словеса, яже слышасте:
Jeremiah addressed all the leaders and all the people, saying, “The Lord sent me to deliver every word of this prophecy against this Temple as you've heard.
13 и ныне лучшыя сотворите пути вашя и дела ваша и послушайте гласа Господа Бога вашего, и престанет Господь от зол, яже глагола на вы:
So change your ways and do what's right, and do what Lord your God tells you, so that he won't have to carry out the disaster he has announced he will bring down on you.
14 и се, аз в руках ваших, сотворите ми якоже угодно и якоже лучше вам является:
As far as I'm concerned, I'm in your hands; do with me whatever you think is good and right.
15 но разумеюще да уразумеете, яко аще убиете мя, кровь неповинну дадите сами на ся и на град сей и на живущыя в нем: яко поистинне посла мя Господь к вам глаголати во ушы ваши вся словеса сия.
But be careful, because you need to be aware that if you kill me, you will make yourselves, this city, and everyone who lives here guilty of murder, because it's true that the Lord sent me to tell you everything he said.”
16 И реша князи и вси людие ко жерцем и ко лжепророком: несть человеку сему суд смертный, яко во имя Господа нашего глагола к нам.
Then the leaders and all the people told the priests and prophets, “This man doesn't deserve the death penalty because he was speaking on behalf of the Lord our God.”
17 И восташа мужие от старейшин земских и реша всему собору людскому, глаголюще:
Some of the country's elders stood up and addressed everyone gathered there.
18 Михеа Морафитский бе пророчествуя во дни Езекии царя Иудина и рече всем людем Иудиным, глаголя: тако рече Господь: Сион яко нива изорется, и Иерусалим яко в путь непроходный будет, и гора храма будет в луг дубравный.
“Micah of Moresheth prophesied during the reign of Hezekiah king of Judah. He told all the people of Judah that this is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Zion will become like a plowed field; Jerusalem will end up a pile of rubble; and the Temple mount will be overgrown with trees.’
19 Еда убивая уби его Езекиа царь Иудин и вси людие Иудины? Не убояшалися убо Господа? И понеже помолишася лицу Господню, и почи Господь от зол, яже глаголаше на ня: и мы сотворихом злобы велики на душы нашя.
Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in the country have him killed? Didn't Hezekiah respect the Lord and plead with him? Didn't the Lord change his mind about the disaster he had announced against them? But we are about to bring a great disaster on ourselves!”
20 И бе человек прорицая именем Господним, Уриа сын Самеов от Кариафиарима, и прорече на град сей и о земли сей по всем словесем Иеремииным.
At around that time there was another man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Uriah, son of Shemaiah, from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied against Jerusalem and against the country just as Jeremiah did.
21 И слыша царь Иоаким и вси князи вся словеса его и искаху убити его: и слыша Уриа и убояся, и бежа и прииде во Египет.
King Jehoiakim and all his military officers and officials heard what he was saying, and the king wanted to have him executed. But when Uriah found out about it, he was frightened and ran away to Egypt.
22 И посла царь Иоаким мужы во Египет, Елдафана сына Ахорова и мужы с ним во Египет,
But King Jehoiakim sent Elnathan, son of Achbor, along with some others.
23 и изведоша его оттуду и приведоша его ко царю, и порази его мечем и вверже его во гроб сынов людий своих.
They brought Uriah back from Egypt and took him to King Jehoiakim. The king killed him with a sword and had his body thrown into the public graveyard.
24 Обаче рука Ахикама сына Сафаниина бе со Иеремиею, еже не предати его в руце людий, да не убиют его.
However, Ahikam, son of Shaphan, took Jeremiah's side so he was not handed over to the people to be killed.
