Книга пророка Иеремии 8
1 Во время оно, глаголет Господь, извергут кости царей Иуды и кости князей его, и кости священников и кости пророков и кости обитающих во Иерусалиме из гробов их
At that time, says the LORD, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves:
2 и повергут их противу солнца и луны и противу всех звезд небесных и противу всего воинства небеснаго, ихже возлюбиша и имже служиша и вслед их ходиша, и ихже держахуся и имже поклонишася: неоплакани и непогребени будут и в пример на лицы земли будут:
And they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried; they shall be for dung on the face of the earth.
3 яко избраша паче смерть, неже живот, и всем, иже осташа от племене сего строптиваго во всех местех, аможе изрину их рече Господь Сил.
And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places where I have driven them, says the LORD of hosts.
4 И речеши к ним: понеже сия глаголет Господь: еда падаяй не востает, или отврашаяйся не обратится?
Moreover you shall say to them, Thus says the LORD; Shall they fall, and not arise? shall he turn away, and not return?
5 Вскую отвратишася людие Мои сии во Иерусалиме отвращением безстудным и укрепишася во произволении своем и не восхотеша обратитися?
Why then is this people of Jerusalem slid back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.
6 Внимайте и слушайте: не тако ли возглаголют: несть человек творяй покаяние о гресе своем, глаголя: что сотворих? Изнеможе бежай от течения своего, аки конь утружден во ржании своем.
I listened and heard, but they spoke not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rushes into the battle.
7 Еродиа на небеси позна время свое, горлица и ластовица селная, врабие сохраниша времена входов своих: людие же Мои сии не познаша судеб Господних.
Yes, the stork in the heaven knows her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.
8 Како речете, яко мы мудри есмы и закон Господень с нами есть? Истинно всуе бысть трость лживая книжником.
How do you say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? See, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
9 Постыдешася премудрии, и устрашени и поимани быша, слово бо Господне отвергоша: кая мудрость есть в них?
The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: see, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
10 Сего ради дам жены их иным и села их наследником, понеже от мала даже до велика вси златолюбию последуют и от пророка даже до священника вси творят лжу,
Therefore will I give their wives to others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them: for every one from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even to the priest every one deals falsely.
11 и изцеляху сотрения дщере людий Моих, ко безчестию глаголюще: мир, мир. И не бе мира.
For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
12 Постыждени суть, яко гнусство сотвориша и постыдением не постыдешася и посрамитися не ведеша: сего ради падут между падающими, во время посещения своего падут рече Господь.
Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? no, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, says the LORD.
13 И соберут плоды их, глаголет Господь: несть грозда на лозе, и не суть смокви на смоковницах, и листвие отпадоша: и дах им, и мимоидоша их.
I will surely consume them, says the LORD: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.
14 Почто мы седим? Совокупитеся и внидем во грады тверды и повержемся тамо, яко Господь Бог наш отрину нас и напои нас водою желчи, согрешихом бо пред Ним.
Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defended cities, and let us be silent there: for the LORD our God has put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
15 Ждахом мира, и не бяху благая: времене уврачевания, и се, боязнь.
We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of health, and behold trouble!
16 От Дана слышано бысть ржание коней его, от гласа ржания яждения коней потрясеся вся земля: и приидет и пожрет землю и исполнение ея, град и обитающих в нем:
The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan: the whole land trembled at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones; for they are come, and have devoured the land, and all that is in it; the city, and those that dwell therein.
17 яко се, Аз послю на вас змии умерщвляющыя, имже несть обаяния, и угрызут вас, рече Господь,
For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, says the LORD.
18 неизцельно со болезнию сердца вашего изчезающаго.
When I would comfort myself against sorrow, my heart is faint in me.
19 Се, глас вопля и дщере людий Моих от земли издалеча: еда Господь несть в Сионе? Или Царя несть в нем? Понеже прогневаша Мя во изваянных своих и в суетных чуждих.
Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: Is not the LORD in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities?
20 Пройде жатва, мимоиде лето, и мы несмы спасени.
The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.
21 Над сокрушением дщере людий моих сокрушен есмь и скорбен: во ужасе объяша мя болезни аки раждающия.
For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment has taken hold on me.
22 Или ритины несть в Галааде? Или врача несть тамо? Чесо ради несть изцелена рана дщере людий моих?
Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
