1 И было ко мне слово Господне:

1 Yahweh’s word came to me again, saying,

2 зачем вы употребляете в земле Израилевой эту пословицу, говоря: "отцы ели кислый виноград, а у детей на зубах оскомина"?

2 “What do you mean, that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, ‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge’?

3 Живу Я! говорит Господь Бог, - не будут вперед говорить пословицу эту в Израиле.

3 “As I live,” says the Lord Yahweh, “you shall not use this proverb any more in Israel.

4 Ибо вот, все души - Мои: как душа отца, так и душа сына - Мои: душа согрешающая, та умрет.

4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine. The soul who sins, he shall die.

5 Если кто праведен и творит суд и правду,

5 “But if a man is just, and does that which is lawful and right,

6 на горах жертвенного не ест и к идолам дома Израилева не обращает глаз своих, жены ближнего своего не оскверняет и к своей жене во время очищения нечистот ее не приближается,

6 and has not eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife, hasn’t come near a woman in her impurity,

7 никого не притесняет, должнику возвращает залог его, хищения не производит, хлеб свой дает голодному и нагого покрывает одеждою,

7 and has not wronged any, but has restored to the debtor his pledge, has taken nothing by robbery, has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment;

8 в рост не отдает и лихвы не берет, от неправды удерживает руку свою, суд человеку с человеком производит правильный,

8 he who hasn’t lent to them with interest, hasn’t taken any increase from them, who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true justice between man and man,

9 поступает по заповедям Моим и соблюдает постановления Мои искренно: то он праведник, он непременно будет жив, говорит Господь Бог.

9 has walked in my statutes, and has kept my ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live,” says the Lord Yahweh.

10 Но если у него родился сын разбойник, проливающий кровь, и делает что-нибудь из всего того,

10 “If he fathers a son who is a robber who sheds blood, and who does any one of these things,

11 чего он сам не делал совсем, и на горах ест жертвенное, и жену ближнего своего оскверняет,

11 or who does not do any of those things but has eaten at the mountain shrines and defiled his neighbor’s wife,

12 бедного и нищего притесняет, насильно отнимает, залога не возвращает, и к идолам обращает глаза свои, делает мерзость,

12 has wronged the poor and needy, has taken by robbery, has not restored the pledge, and has lifted up his eyes to the idols, has committed abomination,

13 в рост дает, и берет лихву; то будет ли он жив? Нет, он не будет жив. Кто делает все такие мерзости, тот непременно умрет, кровь его будет на нем.

13 has lent with interest, and has taken increase from the poor, shall he then live? He shall not live. He has done all these abominations. He shall surely die. His blood will be on him.

14 Но если у кого родился сын, который, видя все грехи отца своего, какие он делает, видит и не делает подобного им:

14 “Now, behold, if he fathers a son who sees all his father’s sins which he has done, and fears, and doesn’t do likewise,

15 на горах жертвенного не ест, к идолам дома Израилева не обращает глаз своих, жены ближнего своего не оскверняет,

15 who hasn’t eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife,

16 и человека не притесняет, залога не берет, и насильно не отнимает, хлеб свой дает голодному, и нагого покрывает одеждою,

16 hasn’t wronged any, hasn’t taken anything to pledge, hasn’t taken by robbery, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment;

17 от обиды бедному удерживает руку свою, роста и лихвы не берет, исполняет Мои повеления и поступает по заповедям Моим, - то сей не умрет за беззаконие отца своего; он будет жив.

17 who has withdrawn his hand from the poor, who hasn’t received interest or increase, has executed my ordinances, has walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father. He shall surely live.

18 А отец его, так как он жестоко притеснял, грабил брата и недоброе делал среди народа своего, вот, он умрет за свое беззаконие.

18 As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he will die in his iniquity.

19 Вы говорите: "почему же сын не несет вины отца своего?" Потому что сын поступает законно и праведно, все уставы Мои соблюдает и исполняет их; он будет жив.

19 “Yet you say, ‘Why doesn’t the son bear the iniquity of the father?’ When the son has done that which is lawful and right, and has kept all my statutes, and has done them, he will surely live.

20 Душа согрешающая, она умрет; сын не понесет вины отца, и отец не понесет вины сына, правда праведного при нем и остается, и беззаконие беззаконного при нем и остается.

20 The soul who sins, he shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him.

21 И беззаконник, если обратится от всех грехов своих, какие делал, и будет соблюдать все уставы Мои и поступать законно и праведно, жив будет, не умрет.

21 “But if the wicked turns from all his sins that he has committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live. He shall not die.

22 Все преступления его, какие делал он, не припомнятся ему: в правде своей, которую будет делать, он жив будет.

22 None of his transgressions that he has committed will be remembered against him. In his righteousness that he has done, he shall live.

23 Разве Я хочу смерти беззаконника? говорит Господь Бог. Не того ли, чтобы он обратился от путей своих и был жив?

23 Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked?” says the Lord Yahweh, “and not rather that he should return from his way, and live?

24 И праведник, если отступит от правды своей и будет поступать неправедно, будет делать все те мерзости, какие делает беззаконник, будет ли он жив? все добрые дела его, какие он делал, не припомнятся; за беззаконие свое, какое делает, и за грехи свои, в каких грешен, он умрет.

24 “But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, should he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done will be remembered. In his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he shall die.

25 Но вы говорите: "неправ путь Господа!" Послушайте, дом Израилев! Мой ли путь неправ? не ваши ли пути неправы?

25 “Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not equal.’ Hear now, house of Israel: Is my way not equal? Aren’t your ways unequal?

26 Если праведник отступает от правды своей и делает беззаконие и за то умирает, то он умирает за беззаконие свое, которое сделал.

26 When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies in it, then he dies in his iniquity that he has done.

27 И беззаконник, если обращается от беззакония своего, какое делал, и творит суд и правду, - к жизни возвратит душу свою.

27 Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he will save his soul alive.

28 Ибо он увидел и обратился от всех преступлений своих, какие делал; он будет жив, не умрет.

28 Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live. He shall not die.

29 А дом Израилев говорит: "неправ путь Господа!" Мои ли пути неправы, дом Израилев? не ваши ли пути неправы?

29 Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ House of Israel, aren’t my ways fair? Aren’t your ways unfair?

30 Посему Я буду судить вас, дом Израилев, каждого по путям его, говорит Господь Бог; покайтесь и обратитесь от всех преступлений ваших, чтобы нечестие не было вам преткновением.

30 “Therefore I will judge you, house of Israel, everyone according to his ways,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Return, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions, so iniquity will not be your ruin.

31 Отвергните от себя все грехи ваши, которыми согрешали вы, и сотворите себе новое сердце и новый дух; и зачем вам умирать, дом Израилев?

31 Cast away from you all your transgressions in which you have transgressed; and make yourself a new heart and a new spirit. For why will you die, house of Israel?

32 Ибо Я не хочу смерти умирающего, говорит Господь Бог; но обратитесь, и живите!

32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Therefore turn yourselves, and live!

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
