Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.
— Пройдите по улицам Иерусалима, посмотрите, разведайте, поищите на площадях: если найдете хотя бы одного человека, поступающего честно и ищущего правды, тогда Я пощажу этот город.
O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
— Господи, разве не истины ищут Твои глаза? Ты поражаешь их, а они не чувствуют боли; Ты их сокрушаешь, а они отвергают урок. Лица сделали тверже камня, и отказываются вернуться.
I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.
За это их разорвет лев из зарослей, загрызет волк из иорданской долины. Леопард сторожит у их городов: любой, кто выйдет, будет растерзан, потому что велик их мятеж, многочисленны их отступничества.
How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.
Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the LORD: it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.
О дом Израиля, — возвещает Господь, — Я веду против вас народ издалека, сильный народ, древний народ, народ, чей язык ты не знаешь, чья речь тебе непонятна.
And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.
Съедят они твою жатву и твой хлеб, съедят твоих сыновей и дочерей, съедят твоих овец и волов, съедят твой виноград и инжир. Они разрушат своим мечом укрепленные города, на которые ты надеешься.
And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the LORD our God all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.
И когда народ спросит: «Почему Господь, наш Бог, сделал с нами все это?» — ты ответь им: «Так как вы оставили Меня и служили в своей земле чужим богам, вы будете служить иноземцам в земле не вашей».
Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
Разве ты не боишься Меня? — возвещает Господь. — Разве ты передо Мной не трепещешь? Я сделал песок границей морю, вечной гранью, которую не переступить. Волны накатывают, но отступают, ревут, но не в силах переступить.
Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in his season: he reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest.
They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
