1 Трубите трубою на Сионе и бейте тревогу на святой горе Моей; да трепещут все жители земли, ибо наступает день Господень, ибо он близок -
1 Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of Yahweh comes, for it is close at hand:
2 день тьмы и мрака, день облачный и туманный: как утренняя заря распространяется по горам народ многочисленный и сильный, какого не бывало от века и после того не будет в роды родов.
2 A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn spreading on the mountains, a great and strong people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even to the years of many generations.
3 Перед ним пожирает огонь, а за ним палит пламя; перед ним земля как сад Едемский, а позади него будет опустошенная степь, и никому не будет спасения от него.
3 A fire devours before them, and behind them, a flame burns. The land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them, a desolate wilderness. Yes, and no one has escaped them.
4 Вид его как вид коней, и скачут они как всадники;
4 Their appearance is as the appearance of horses, and they run as horsemen.
5 скачут по вершинам гор как бы со стуком колесниц, как бы с треском огненного пламени, пожирающего солому, как сильный народ, выстроенный к битве.
5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains, they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, like a strong people set in battle array.
6 При виде его затрепещут народы, у всех лица побледнеют.
6 At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.
7 Как борцы бегут они и как храбрые воины влезают на стену, и каждый идет своею дорогою, и не сбивается с путей своих.
7 They run like mighty men. They climb the wall like warriors. They each march in his line, and they don’t swerve off course.
8 Не давят друг друга, каждый идет своею стезею, и падают на копья, но остаются невредимы.
8 One doesn’t jostle another. They each march in their own path. They burst through the defenses and don’t break ranks.
9 Бегают по городу, поднимаются на стены, влезают на дома, входят в окна, как вор.
9 They rush on the city. They run on the wall. They climb up into the houses. They enter in at the windows like thieves.
10 Перед ними потрясется земля, поколеблется небо; солнце и луна помрачатся, и звезды потеряют свой свет.
10 The earth quakes before them. The heavens tremble. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
11 И Господь даст глас Свой пред воинством Своим, ибо весьма многочисленно полчище Его и могуществен исполнитель слова Его; ибо велик день Господень и весьма страшен, и кто выдержит его?
11 Yahweh thunders his voice before his army, for his forces are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command; for the day of Yahweh is great and very awesome, and who can endure it?
12 Но и ныне еще говорит Господь: обратитесь ко Мне всем сердцем своим в посте, плаче и рыдании.
12 “Yet even now,” says Yahweh, “turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning.”
13 Раздирайте сердца ваши, а не одежды ваши, и обратитесь к Господу Богу вашему; ибо Он благ и милосерд, долготерпелив и многомилостив и сожалеет о бедствии.
13 Tear your heart and not your garments, and turn to Yahweh, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.
14 Кто знает, не сжалится ли Он, и не оставит ли благословения, хлебного приношения и возлияния Господу Богу вашему?
14 Who knows? He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal offering and a drink offering to Yahweh, your God.
15 Вострубите трубою на Сионе, назначьте пост и объявите торжественное собрание.
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion! Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly.
16 Соберите народ, созовите собрание, пригласите старцев, соберите отроков и грудных младенцев; пусть выйдет жених из чертога своего и невеста из своей горницы.
16 Gather the people. Sanctify the assembly. Assemble the elders. Gather the children, and those who nurse from breasts. Let the bridegroom go out of his room, and the bride out of her chamber.
17 Между притвором и жертвенником да плачут священники, служители Господни, и говорят: "пощади, Господи, народ Твой, не предай наследия Твоего на поругание, чтобы не издевались над ним народы; для чего будут говорить между народами: где Бог их?"
17 Let the priests, the ministers of Yahweh, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, “Spare your people, Yahweh, and don’t give your heritage to reproach, that the nations should rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’”
18 И тогда возревнует Господь о земле Своей, и пощадит народ Свой.
18 Then Yahweh was jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.
19 И ответит Господь, и скажет народу Своему: вот, Я пошлю вам хлеб и вино и елей, и будете насыщаться ими, и более не отдам вас на поругание народам.
19 Yahweh answered his people, “Behold, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil, and you will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
20 И пришедшего от севера удалю от вас, и изгоню в землю безводную и пустую, переднее полчище его - в море восточное, а заднее - в море западное, и пойдет от него зловоние, и поднимется от него смрад, так как он много наделал зла.
20 But I will remove the northern army far away from you, and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise.” Surely he has done great things.
21 Не бойся, земля: радуйся и веселись, ибо Господь велик, чтобы совершить это.
21 Land, don’t be afraid. Be glad and rejoice, for Yahweh has done great things.
22 Не бойтесь, животные, ибо пастбища пустыни произрастят траву, дерево принесет плод свой, смоковница и виноградная лоза окажут свою силу.
22 Don’t be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit. The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 И вы, чада Сиона, радуйтесь и веселитесь о Господе Боге вашем; ибо Он даст вам дождь в меру и будет ниспосылать вам дождь, дождь ранний и поздний, как прежде.
23 “Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in Yahweh, your God; for he gives you the early rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before.
24 И наполнятся гумна хлебом, и переполнятся подточилия виноградным соком и елеем.
24 The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
25 И воздам вам за те годы, которые пожирали саранча, черви, жуки и гусеница, великое войско Мое, которое послал Я на вас.
25 I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.
26 И до сытости будете есть и насыщаться и славить имя Господа Бога вашего, Который дивное соделал с вами, и не посрамится народ Мой во веки.
26 You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied, and will praise the name of Yahweh, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never again be disappointed.
27 И узнаете, что Я посреди Израиля, и Я - Господь Бог ваш, и нет другого, и Мой народ не посрамится вовеки.
27 You will know that I am among Israel, and that I am Yahweh, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never again be disappointed.
28 И будет после того, излию от Духа Моего на всякую плоть, и будут пророчествовать сыны ваши и дочери ваши; старцам вашим будут сниться сны, и юноши ваши будут видеть видения.
28 “It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your young men will see visions.
29 И также на рабов и на рабынь в те дни излию от Духа Моего.
29 And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days, I will pour out my Spirit.
30 И покажу знамения на небе и на земле: кровь и огонь и столпы дыма.
30 I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth: blood, fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 Солнце превратится во тьму и луна - в кровь, прежде нежели наступит день Господень, великий и страшный.
31 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.
32 И будет: всякий, кто призовет имя Господне, спасется; ибо на горе Сионе и в Иерусалиме будет спасение, как сказал Господь, и у остальных, которых призовет Господь.
32 It will happen that whoever will call on Yahweh’s name shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, and among the remnant, those whom Yahweh calls.

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).
… for it was the third hour of the day; but that this was what had been spoken by the prophet: "It shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh, and they shall prophesy." The God, therefore, who did promise by the prophet, that He would send His Spirit …
… pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your old men shall dream, and your young men shall see visions: and even on my servants and mine handmaids in those days will I pour out my Spirit."

Do thou also then groan, even as that holy one, I forbid it not. "Rend," as the prophet commanded, "thine heart, and not thy garments."
