Notes on this text (1)
- 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 О, кто даст голове моей воду и глазам моим - источник слез! я плакал бы день и ночь о пораженных дщери народа моего.
1 Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a spring of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
2 О, кто дал бы мне в пустыне пристанище путников! оставил бы я народ мой и ушел бы от них: ибо все они прелюбодеи, скопище вероломных.
2 Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men, that I might leave my people and go from them! For they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
3 Как лук, напрягают язык свой для лжи, усиливаются на земле неправдою; ибо переходят от одного зла к другому, и Меня не знают, говорит Господь.
3 “They bend their tongue, as their bow, for falsehood. They have grown strong in the land, but not for truth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they don’t know me,” says Yahweh.
4 Берегитесь каждый своего друга, и не доверяйте ни одному из своих братьев; ибо всякий брат ставит преткновение другому, и всякий друг разносит клеветы.
4 “Everyone beware of his neighbor, and don’t trust in any brother; for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will go around like a slanderer.
5 Каждый обманывает своего друга, и правды не говорят: приучили язык свой говорить ложь, лукавствуют до усталости.
5 Friends deceive each other, and will not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies. They weary themselves committing iniquity.
6 Ты живешь среди коварства; по коварству они отрекаются знать Меня, говорит Господь.
6 Your habitation is in the middle of deceit. Through deceit, they refuse to know me,” says Yahweh.
7 Посему так говорит Господь Саваоф: вот, Я расплавлю и испытаю их; ибо как иначе Мне поступать со дщерью народа Моего?
7 Therefore Yahweh of Armies says, “Behold, I will melt them and test them; for how should I deal with the daughter of my people?
8 Язык их - убийственная стрела, говорит коварно; устами своими говорят с ближним своим дружелюбно, а в сердце своем строят ему ковы.
8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow. It speaks deceit. One speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart, he waits to ambush him.
9 Неужели Я не накажу их за это? говорит Господь; не отмстит ли душа Моя такому народу, как этот?
9 Shouldn’t I punish them for these things?” says Yahweh. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on a nation such as this?
10 О горах подниму плач и вопль, и о степных пастбищах - рыдание, потому что они выжжены, так что никто там не проходит, и не слышно блеяния стад: от птиц небесных до скота - все рассеялись, ушли.
10 I will weep and wail for the mountains, and lament for the pastures of the wilderness, because they are burned up, so that no one passes through; Men can’t hear the voice of the livestock. Both the birds of the sky and the animals have fled. They are gone.
11 И сделаю Иерусалим грудою камней, жилищем шакалов, и города Иудеи сделаю пустынею, без жителей.
11 “I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling place of jackals. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
12 Есть ли такой мудрец, который понял бы это? И к кому говорят уста Господни - объяснил бы, за что погибла страна и выжжена, как пустыня, так что никто не проходит по ней?
12 Who is wise enough to understand this? Who is he to whom the mouth of Yahweh has spoken, that he may declare it? Why has the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that no one passes through?
13 И сказал Господь: за то, что они оставили закон Мой, который Я постановил для них, и не слушали гласа Моего и не поступали по нему;
13 Yahweh says, “Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice or walked in my ways,
14 а ходили по упорству сердца своего и во след Ваалов, как научили их отцы их.
14 but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart and after the Baals, which their fathers taught them.”
15 Посему так говорит Господь Саваоф, Бог Израилев: вот, Я накормлю их, этот народ, полынью, и напою их водою с желчью;
15 Therefore Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says, “Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood and give them poisoned water to drink.
16 и рассею их между народами, которых не знали ни они, ни отцы их, и пошлю вслед их меч, доколе не истреблю их.
16 I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known. I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.”
17 Так говорит Господь Саваоф: подумайте, и позовите плакальщиц, чтобы они пришли; пошлите за искусницами в этом деле, чтобы они пришли.
17 Yahweh of Armies says, “Consider, and call for the mourning women, that they may come. Send for the skillful women, that they may come.
18 Пусть они поспешат и поднимут плач о нас, чтобы из глаз наших лились слезы, и с ресниц наших текла вода.
18 Let them make haste and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears and our eyelids gush out with waters.
19 Ибо голос плача слышен с Сиона: "как мы ограблены! мы жестоко посрамлены, ибо оставляем землю, потому что разрушили жилища наши".
19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, ‘How we are ruined! We are greatly confounded because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.’”
20 Итак слушайте, женщины, слово Господа, и да внимает ухо ваше слову уст Его; и учите дочерей ваших плачу, и одна другую - плачевным песням.
20 Yet hear Yahweh’s word, you women. Let your ear receive the word of his mouth. Teach your daughters wailing. Everyone teach her neighbor a lamentation.
21 Ибо смерть входит в наши окна, вторгается в чертоги наши, чтобы истребить детей с улицы, юношей с площадей.
21 For death has come up into our windows. It has entered into our palaces to cut off the children from outside, and the young men from the streets.
22 Скажи: так говорит Господь: и будут повержены трупы людей, как навоз на поле и как снопы позади жнеца, и некому будет собрать их.
22 Speak, “Yahweh says, “‘The dead bodies of men will fall as dung on the open field, and as the handful after the harvester. No one will gather them.’”
23 Так говорит Господь: да не хвалится мудрый мудростью своею, да не хвалится сильный силою своею, да не хвалится богатый богатством своим.
23 Yahweh says, “Don’t let the wise man glory in his wisdom. Don’t let the mighty man glory in his might. Don’t let the rich man glory in his riches.
24 Но хвалящийся хвались тем, что разумеет и знает Меня, что Я - Господь, творящий милость, суд и правду на земле; ибо только это благоугодно Мне, говорит Господь.
24 But let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Yahweh who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness on the earth, for I delight in these things,” says Yahweh.
25 Вот, приходят дни, говорит Господь, когда Я посещу всех обрезанных и необрезанных:
25 “Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will punish all those who are circumcised only in their flesh:
26 Египет и Иудею, и Едома и сыновей Аммоновых, и Моава и всех стригущих волосы на висках, обитающих в пустыне; ибо все эти народы необрезаны, а весь дом Израилев с необрезанным сердцем.
26 Egypt, Judah, Edom, the children of Ammon, Moab, and all who have the corners of their hair cut off, who dwell in the wilderness, for all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart.”

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).
… "Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, neither let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him that glorieth glory in the Lord, in diligently seeking Him, and doing judgment and righteousness" ), being especially mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus which He spake, teaching …
And to show how those from among the Gentiles were foretold as more true and more believing, we will cite what was said by Isaiah the prophet; for he spoke as follows "Israel is uncircumcised in heart, but the Gentiles are uncircumcised in the flesh." So many things therefore, as these, when they are seen with the eye, are enough …
… evil heart, and went backwards, and not forwards." And again, when He declares by the same man, "But let him that glorieth, glory in this, to understand and know that I am the Lord, who doth exercise loving-kindness, and righteousness, and judgment in the earth;" He adds, "For in these things I delight, says the Lord," but not in sacrifices, …
