The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought:
Слово Господнє, що надійшло до Еремії під час великої засухи:
“Judah mourns,
and her gates languish;
her people lament on the ground,
and the cry of Jerusalem goes up.
and her gates languish;
her people lament on the ground,
and the cry of Jerusalem goes up.
Плаче Юда, ворота його розпались, почорнїли на землї, а розпучливі клики роздаються в Ерусалимі.
Her nobles send their servants for water;
they come to the cisterns;
they find no water;
they return with their vessels empty;
they are ashamed and confounded
and cover their heads.

they find no water;
they return with their vessels empty;
they are ashamed and confounded
and cover their heads.
Можні посилають слугів своїх по воду; вони приходять до криниць, та й не знаходять води; вертаються з порожньою посудиною, туманїють, застиджені й покривають собі голову (в розпуцї).
Because of the ground that is dismayed,
since there is no rain on the land,
the farmers are ashamed;
they cover their heads.

the farmers are ashamed;
they cover their heads.
Потріскалась од спеки земля, бо не було дощу; хлїбороби сумують і покривають собі голови.
Even the doe in the field forsakes her newborn fawn
because there is no grass.

Ба й сугачка (ланя) роджає в полі, та й кидає своє маленьке, бо нема травицї.
The wild donkeys stand on the bare heights;
they pant for air like jackals;
their eyes fail
because there is no vegetation.
they pant for air like jackals;
their eyes fail
because there is no vegetation.
Дикі осли стоять по горах, вдихаючи, мов шакалі, вітерець; потухли очі в їх, бо нема трави.
“Though our iniquities testify against us,
act, O Lord, for your name’s sake;
for our backslidings are many;
we have sinned against you.
act, O Lord, for your name’s sake;
for our backslidings are many;
we have sinned against you.
Хоч наші лиходїйства сьвідкують проти нас, та ти, Господи, вчини з нами ласку задля імені твого, зрада бо наша велика, ми согрішили перед тобою.
O you hope of Israel,
its savior in time of trouble,
why should you be like a stranger in the land,
like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
its savior in time of trouble,
why should you be like a stranger in the land,
like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
Ой надїє Ізрайлева, ти, спасе його в нуждї! Чом ти — нїби чужинець у сїй землї, наче переходень, що зайшов, аби переночувати?
Why should you be like a man confused,
like a mighty warrior who cannot save?
Yet you, O Lord, are in the midst of us,
and we are called by your name;
do not leave us.”
like a mighty warrior who cannot save?
Yet you, O Lord, are in the midst of us,
and we are called by your name;
do not leave us.”
Чого се ти — мов перелякана людина, мов той воївник, що не здолїє помогти? Та ж ти проміж нами, Господи, й ми звемось імям твоїм; не покидай же нас?
Thus says the Lord concerning this people:
“They have loved to wander thus;
they have not restrained their feet;
therefore the Lord does not accept them;
now he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins.”
“They have loved to wander thus;
they have not restrained their feet;
therefore the Lord does not accept them;
now he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins.”
Господь же так говорить сьому людові: За те, що вони люблять блукати, не впиняють ніг своїх, за те Господь не любить їх; за те він пригадує їм тепер провини їх і карає гріхи їх.
The Lord said to me: “Do not pray for the welfare of this people.
І сказав до мене Господь: Шкода молитись тобі за сей люд, щоб йому добре було.
Though they fast, I will not hear their cry, and though they offer burnt offering and grain offering, I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.”
Як будуть вони постити, я не вважати му на їх мольби, та й як приносити муть усепалення й хлїбові жертви, я не прийму їх. Нї, мечем і голодом, і мором вигублю їх.
Lying Prophets
Then I said: “Ah, Lord God, behold, the prophets say to them, ‘You shall not see the sword, nor shall you have famine, but I will give you assured peace in this place.’”
Then I said: “Ah, Lord God, behold, the prophets say to them, ‘You shall not see the sword, nor shall you have famine, but I will give you assured peace in this place.’”
І промовив я: Ой Господи Боже! пророки ж говорять їм: Не побачите меча, та й голоду не буде в вас, а повсячасний мир дам вам на сьому місцї.
And the Lord said to me: “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, worthless divination, and the deceit of their own minds.
Господь же відказав менї: ті пророки лож пророкують в імя моє. Не посилав я їх і не повелївав їм, і не говорив до них; вони пророкують вам ложні видива, віщування та пусті мрії серця свого.
Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name although I did not send them, and who say, ‘Sword and famine shall not come upon this land’: By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed.
Тим то так говорить Господь про сї пророки; вони пророкують імям моїм, а я не посилав їх; вони провадять: Нї меч, нї голод не вдарить сієї землї; за те од меча й голоду погинуть сї пророки;
And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem, victims of famine and sword, with none to bury them — them, their wives, their sons, and their daughters. For I will pour out their evil upon them.
Та й люде, що їм пророкують вони, поляжуть по улицях Ерусалимських од голоднечі й меча, й нїкому буде ховати їх, — самі вони, жени їх, сини їх і дочки їх, і вилию на них ледарство їх.
“You shall say to them this word:
‘Let my eyes run down with tears night and day,
and let them not cease,
for the virgin daughter of my people is shattered with a great wound,
with a very grievous blow.
‘Let my eyes run down with tears night and day,
and let them not cease,
for the virgin daughter of my people is shattered with a great wound,
with a very grievous blow.
Ти ж промов до них се слово: Нехай же проливають очі мої сльози день і ніч без упину, тяжким бо ударом побита буде дївиця, дочка люду мого, болючим ударом.
If I go out into the field,
behold, those pierced by the sword!
And if I enter the city,
behold, the diseases of famine!
For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
and have no knowledge.’”
behold, those pierced by the sword!
And if I enter the city,
behold, the diseases of famine!
For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
and have no knowledge.’”
Вийду в поле, аж се побиті мечем; увійду в місто, аж тут — умлїваючі від голоду; й пророки й сьвященники тиняються по країнї, що не знають її.
Have you utterly rejected Judah?
Does your soul loathe Zion?
Why have you struck us down
so that there is no healing for us?
We looked for peace, but no good came;
for a time of healing, but behold, terror.

Хиба ж ти відопхнув зовсїм Юду? Хиба ж гидує душа твоя Сионом? Чом же побив єси нас так, що нема нам лїку? Ждемо миру, та нема добра; ждемо одужання, — аж се трівога.
We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord,
and the iniquity of our fathers,
for we have sinned against you.
and the iniquity of our fathers,
for we have sinned against you.
Признаємось, Господи, в нашій безбожностї, і в провині батьків наших, що ми согрішили перед тобою.
Do not spurn us, for your name’s sake;
do not dishonor your glorious throne;
remember and do not break your covenant with us.

remember and do not break your covenant with us.
Не відпихай же нас задля імені твого; не зневажай престола величі твоєї; спогадай, не розривай завіту твого з нами!
Are there any among the false gods of the nations that can bring rain?
Or can the heavens give showers?
Are you not he, O Lord our God?
We set our hope on you,
for you do all these things.
Or can the heavens give showers?

Чи то ж є між марними богами поганськими такі, щоб дощ спускали? чи то ж небо само собою дає дощ? Хиба ж се не ти, Господи, Боже наш? На тебе ми вповаємо, бо ти все те твориш.
