СКАЧАТЬ from the storm, a shadow from the heat;For the blast of the terrible ones was as a storm against the wall.⁵As the heat in a dry place, Thou didst subdue the noise of strangers;As the heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones was brought low. ⁶And in this mountain will the Lord of hosts make unto all peoplesA feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees,Of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.⁷And He will destroy in this mountainThe face of the covering that is cast over all peoples,And the veil that is spread over all nations.⁸He will swallow up death for ever;And the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces;And the reproach of His people will He take away from off all the earth;For the Lord hath spoken it. ⁹And it shall be said in that day:'Lo, this is our God,For whom we waited, that He might save us;This is the Lord, for whom we waited,We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.'¹⁰For in this mountain will the hand of the Lord rest,And Moab shall be trodden down in his place,Even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill.¹¹And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof,As he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim,His pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands.¹²And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low,And bring to the ground, even to the dust. 26In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah:We have a strong city;Walls and bulwarks doth He appoint for salvation.²Open ye the gates,That the righteous nation that keepeth faithfulness may enter in.³The mind stayed on Thee Thou keepest in perfect peace;Because it trusteth in Thee.⁴Trust ye in the Lord for ever,For the Lord is God, an everlasting Rock.⁵For He hath brought down them that dwell on high,The lofty city, laying it low, laying it low even to the ground,Bringing it even to the dust.⁶The foot shall tread it down,Even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy. ⁷The way of the just is straight;Thou, Most Upright, makest plain the path of the just.⁸Yea, in the way of Thy judgments,O Lord, have we waited for Thee;To Thy name and to Thy memorial is the desire of our soul.⁹With my soul have I desired Thee in the night;Yea, with my spirit within me have I sought Thee earnestly;For when Thy judgments are in the earth,The inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.¹⁰Let favour be shown to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness;In the land of uprightness will he deal wrongfully,And will not behold the majesty of the Lord. ¹¹Lord, Thy hand was lifted up, yet they see not;They shall see with shame Thy zeal for the people;Yea, fire shall devour Thine adversaries.¹²Lord, Thou wilt establish peace for us;For Thou hast indeed wrought all our works for us.¹³O Lord our God, other lords beside Thee have had dominion over us;But by Thee only do we make mention of Thy name.¹⁴The dead live not, the shades rise not;To that end hast Thou punished and destroyed them,And made all their memory to perish.¹⁵Thou hast gotten Thee honour with the nations, O Lord,Yea, exceeding great honour with the nations;Thou art honoured unto the farthest ends of the earth. ¹⁶Lord, in trouble have they sought Thee,Silently they poured out a prayer when Thy chastening was upon them.¹⁷Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery,Is in pain and crieth out in her pangs;So have we been at Thy presence, O Lord.¹⁸We have been with child, we have been in pain,We have as it were brought forth wind;We have not wrought any deliverance in the land;Neither are the inhabitants of the world come to life.¹⁹Thy dead shall live, my dead bodies shall arise—Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust—For Thy dew is as the dew of light,And the earth shall bring to life the shades. ²⁰Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers,And shut thy doors about thee;Hide thyself for a little moment,Until the indignation be overpast.²¹For, behold, the Lord cometh forth out of His placeTo visit upon the inhabitants of the earth their iniquity;The earth also shall disclose her blood,And shall no more cover her slain.

      27In that day the Lord with His sore and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the slant serpent, and leviathan the tortuous serpent; and He will slay the dragon that is in the sea.

      ²In that day sing ye of her:'A vineyard of foaming wine!'³I the Lord do guard it,I water it every moment;Lest Mine anger visit it,I guard it night and day.⁴Fury is not in Me;Would that I were as the briers and thorns in flame!I would with one step burn it altogether.⁵Or else let him take hold of My strength,That he may make peace with Me; yea, let him make peace with Me.⁶In days to come shall Jacob take root,Israel shall blossom and bud;And the face of the world shall be filled with fruitage. ⁷Hath He smitten him as He smote those that smote him?Or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by Him?⁸In full measure, when Thou sendest her away, Thou dost contend with her;He hath removed her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind.⁹Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated,And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin:When he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces,So that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.¹⁰For the fortified city is solitary,A habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the wilderness;There shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down,And consume the branches thereof¹¹When the boughs thereof are withered,They shall be broken off;The women shall come, and set them on fire;For it is a people of no understanding;Therefore He that made them will not have compassion upon them,And He that formed them will not be gracious unto them. ¹²And it shall come to pass in that day,That the Lord will beat off [His fruit]From the flood of the River unto the Brook of Egypt,And ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel. ¹³And it shall come to pass in that day,That a great horn shall be blown;And they shall come that were lost in the land of Assyria,And they that were dispersed in the land of Egypt;And they shall worship the Lord in the holy mountain at Jerusalem. 28Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim,And to the fading flower of his glorious beauty,Which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are smitten down with wine!²Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one,As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction,As a storm of mighty waters overflowing,That casteth down to the earth with violence.³The crown of pride of the drunkards of EphraimShall be trodden under foot;⁴And the fading flower of his glorious beauty,Which is on the head of the fat valley,Shall be as the first-ripe fig before the summer,Which when one looketh upon it,While it is yet in his hand he eateth it up. ⁵In that day shall the Lord of hosts beFor a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty,Unto the residue of His people;⁶And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment,And for strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate. ⁷But these also reel through wine,And stagger through strong drink;The priest and the prophet reel through strong drink,They are confused because of wine,They stagger because of strong drink;They reel in vision, they totter in judgment.⁸For all tables are full of filthy vomit,And no place is clean. ⁹Whom shall one teach knowledge?And whom shall one make to understand the message?Them that are weaned from the milk,Them that are drawn from the breasts?¹⁰For it is precept by precept, precept by precept,Line by line, line by line;Here a little, there a little.¹¹For with stammering lips and with a strange tongueShall it be spoken to this people;¹²To whom it was said: 'This is the rest,Give ye rest to the weary;And this is the refreshing';Yet they would not hear.¹³And so the word of the Lord is unto themPrecept by precept, precept by precept,Line by line, line by line;Here a little, there a little;That they may go, and fall backward, and be broken,And snared, and taken. ¹⁴Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scoffers,The ballad-mongers of this people which is in Jerusalem:¹⁵Because ye have said: 'We have made a covenant with death,And with the nether-world are we at agreement;When the scouring scourge shall pass through,It shall not come unto us;For we have made lies our refuge,And in falsehood have we hid ourselves';¹⁶Therefore thus saith the Lord God:Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone,A tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation;He that believeth shall not make haste.¹⁷And I will make justice the line,And righteousness the plummet;And the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies,And the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.¹⁸And your covenant with death shall be disannulled,And your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand;When the scouring scourge shall pass through,Then ye shall be trodden down by it.¹⁹As often as it passeth through, it shall take you;For morning by morning shall it pass through,By day and by night;And it shall be sheer terror to understand the message.²⁰For the bed is too СКАЧАТЬ
