- Includes the books not found in the Hebrew Bible (Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, Letter of Jeremiah, 1–3 Maccabees, 2 and 3 Esdras, Prayer of Manasseh), as in the Synodal editions.
1 Так говорит Господь помазаннику Своему Киру: Я держу тебя за правую руку, чтобы покорить тебе народы, и сниму поясы с чресл царей, чтоб отворялись для тебя двери, и ворота не затворялись;
1 Yahweh says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him and strip kings of their armor, to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
2 Я пойду пред тобою и горы уровняю, медные двери сокрушу и запоры железные сломаю;
2 “I will go before you and make the rough places smooth. I will break the doors of bronze in pieces and cut apart the bars of iron.
3 и отдам тебе хранимые во тьме сокровища и сокрытые богатства, дабы ты познал, что Я Господь, называющий тебя по имени, Бог Израилев.
3 I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, Yahweh, who calls you by your name, even the God of Israel.
4 Ради Иакова, раба Моего, и Израиля, избранного Моего, Я назвал тебя по имени, почтил тебя, хотя ты не знал Меня.
4 For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have given you a title, though you have not known me.
5 Я Господь, и нет иного; нет Бога кроме Меня; Я препоясал тебя, хотя ты не знал Меня,
5 I am Yahweh, and there is no one else. Besides me, there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not known me,
6 дабы узнали от восхода солнца и от запада, что нет кроме Меня; Я Господь, и нет иного.
6 that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is no one besides me. I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
7 Я образую свет и творю тьму, делаю мир и произвожу бедствия; Я, Господь, делаю все это.
7 I form the light and create darkness. I make peace and create calamity. I am Yahweh, who does all these things.
8 Кропите, небеса, свыше, и облака да проливают правду; да раскроется земля и приносит спасение, и да произрастает вместе правда. Я, Господь, творю это.
8 Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, Yahweh, have created it.
9 Горе тому, кто препирается с Создателем своим, черепок из черепков земных! Скажет ли глина горшечнику: "что ты делаешь?" и твое дело скажет ли о тебе: "у него нет рук?"
9 Woe to him who strives with his Maker— a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’ or your work, ‘He has no hands’?
10 Горе тому, кто говорит отцу: "зачем ты произвел меня на свет?", а матери: "зачем ты родила меня?"
10 Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’ or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’”
11 Так говорит Господь, Святый Израиля и Создатель его: вы спрашиваете Меня о будущем сыновей Моих и хотите Мне указывать в деле рук Моих?
11 Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel and his Maker says: “You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you command me concerning the work of my hands!
12 Я создал землю и сотворил на ней человека; Я - Мои руки распростерли небеса, и всему воинству их дал закон Я.
12 I have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens. I have commanded all their army.
13 Я воздвиг его в правде и уровняю все пути его. Он построит город Мой и отпустит пленных Моих, не за выкуп и не за дары, говорит Господь Саваоф.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make all his ways straight. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” says Yahweh of Armies.
14 Так говорит Господь: труды Египтян и торговля Ефиоплян, и Савейцы, люди рослые, к тебе перейдут и будут твоими; они последуют за тобою, в цепях придут и повергнутся пред тобою, и будут умолять тебя, говоря: у тебя только Бог, и нет иного Бога.
14 Yahweh says: “The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, will come over to you, and they will be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains. They will bow down to you. They will make supplication to you: ‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else. There is no other god.
15 Истинно Ты Бог сокровенный, Бог Израилев, Спаситель.
15 Most certainly you are a God who has hidden yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.’”
16 Все они будут постыжены и посрамлены; вместе с ними со стыдом пойдут и все, делающие идолов.
16 They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
17 Израиль же будет спасен спасением вечным в Господе; вы не будете постыжены и посрамлены во веки веков.
17 Israel will be saved by Yahweh with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
18 Ибо так говорит Господь, сотворивший небеса, Он, Бог, образовавший землю и создавший ее; Он утвердил ее, не напрасно сотворил ее; Он образовал ее для жительства: Я Господь, и нет иного.
18 For Yahweh who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and didn’t create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited says: “I am Yahweh. There is no other.
19 Не тайно Я говорил, не в темном месте земли; не говорил Я племени Иакова: "напрасно ищете Меня". Я Господь, изрекающий правду, открывающий истину.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I didn’t say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, Yahweh, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.
20 Соберитесь и придите, приблизьтесь все, уцелевшие из народов. Невежды те, которые носят деревянного своего идола и молятся богу, который не спасает.
20 “Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that can’t save.
21 Объявите и скажите, посоветовавшись между собою: кто возвестил это из древних времен, наперед сказал это? Не Я ли, Господь? и нет иного Бога кроме Меня, Бога праведного и спасающего нет кроме Меня.
21 Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, Yahweh? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is no one besides me.
22 Ко Мне обратитесь, и будете спасены, все концы земли, ибо Я Бог, и нет иного.
22 “Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
23 Мною клянусь: из уст Моих исходит правда, слово неизменное, что предо Мною преклонится всякое колено, Мною будет клясться всякий язык.
23 I have sworn by myself. The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.
24 Только у Господа, будут говорить о Мне, правда и сила; к Нему придут и устыдятся все, враждовавшие против Него.
24 They will say of me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in Yahweh.’” Even to him will men come. All those who raged against him will be disappointed.
25 Господом будет оправдано и прославлено все племя Израилево.
25 All the offspring of Israel will be justified in Yahweh, and will rejoice!

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).
And this is what has been spoken by the prophet, "I am a jealous God, making peace, and creating evil things;" thus making peace and friendship with those who repent and turn to Him, and bringing [them to] unity, but preparing for the impenitent, those who shun the light, eternal fire and outer darkness, which are evils indeed to those …
Wherefore He says to it by Isaiah, "I am the Lord that formed thee." It is indeed descended from heaven from its commencement, since its citizens during the course of this world grow by the grace of God, which cometh down from above through the laver of regeneration in the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven.

And again, "I," saith He, "make peace, and create evils:" For neither in this place doth He speak of wickedness, but of famines, and pestilences, things accounted evil by most men: the generality being wont to call these things evil.

If thou findest fault with Him who saith, I am God that make peace, and create evil, explain how Jesus saith, I came not to send peace but a sword.
