Сло'во бы'вшее къ і^е^ремїи эT г~а гл~я.

¹

Concerning Idumea, thus saith the Lord; There is no longer wisdom in Thæman, counsel has perished from the wise ones, their wisdom is gone,

²

та'ко реq г~ь б~ъ і^и^л~еv. въпиши вся` словеса` въ кни'ги, ја%же въписахъ а^зъ к тебњ.

²

their place has been deceived. Dig deep for a dwelling, ye that inhabit Dædam, for he has wrought grievously: I brought trouble upon him in the time at which I visited him.

³

ја%ко се дн~їе грядTђ рече г~ь, и^ въз#вращђ и^с#селе'нїе людїи мои^хъ і^и^л~я і^ и^ё'ды, рече г~ь. и^ възвращђ я& на' ꙁемлю ю'же да'хъ эTц~емъ и^хъ, и^ съвладђть е^ю”

³

For grape-gatherers are come, who shall not leave thee a remnant; as thieves by night, they shall lay their hand upon thy possessions.

⁴

и^ си словеса ја%же гл~тъ г~ь ѓ^ і^и^л~и и^ ѓ^ і^ё'дњ,

⁴

For I have stripped Esau, I have uncovered their secret places; they shall have no power to hide themselves, they have perished each by the hand of his brother, my neighbour, and it is impossible

⁵

та'ко рече г~ь. гласъ стра'шенъ ё^слы'шите, стра'хъ и^ нњсть мира.

⁵

for thy fatherless one to be left to live, but I shall live, and the widows trust in me.

⁶

въпраша'ите и^ ви'дњте, а^ще ся е^сть родилъ мђжескь полъ. и^ ѓ^ стра'сњ и^мже и^мђтъ чресла` и^х# сп~сенїе. и^мже ви'дњхъ всего чл~ка, и^ рђцњ е^го на чреслехъ его, и^з#врати'шася лица въ златени'цђ.

⁶

For thus saith the Lord; They who were not appointed to drink the cup have drunk it; and thou shalt by no means be cleared:

⁷

ЭO люте ја%ко великъ дн~ь тои, и^ нњсть подо'бна е^мђ. и^ вре'мя тњсно е^сть і^а'ковђ, и^ потомъ сп~сется”

⁷

for by myself I have sworn, saith the Lord, that thou shalt be in the midst of her an impassable land, and a reproach, and a curse; and all her cities shall be desert for ever.

⁸

В то'и дн~ь рече г~ь, съкрђшђ ја^ре'мъ с вы'я и^хᲆ, и^ ё'зы и^хъ растор#гнђ. и^ не послђжатъ тїи ктомђ чюжDимъ,

⁸

I have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent messengers to the nations, saying, Assemble yourselves, and come against her; rise ye up to war.

⁹

н^о послђжатъ тїи г~ђ б~ђ свое^мђ. и^ дв~да цр~я въста'влю и^мъ.

⁹

I have made thee small among the nations, utterly contemptible among men.

¹⁰

сего раd т^ы не бо'ися ра'бе мои і^а'кове гл~етъ г~ь, ни ё^страша'ися і^и^л~ю. ја%ко с^е а^ꙁъ и^ꙁведђ т^я и^з# земли` да'лнея, и^ племя твое иZ ꙁемли плᲇненїя иX” и^ въз#врати'тся па'ки і^а'ковъ и^ почїетъ, и^ всего добра` и^сполнь бђдеT” и^ не бђдетъ ё^страша'яи т^я.

¹⁰

Thine insolence has risen up against thee, the fierceness of thine heart has burst the holes of the rocks, it has seized upon the strength of a lofty hill; for as an eagle he set his nest on high: thence will I bring thee down.

¹¹

ја%ко а^зъ с тобо'ю е^смь гл~етъ г~ь, сп~са'аи т^я. ја%ко сътвори'хъ сконча'нїе въ всњхъ странаX в няже раꙁсњаX т^я. тебе же не сътворю въ сконча'нїе, н^о накажђ т^я в сђдђ, дабы не бы'лъ ви'дњнᲆ себњ невин#ныи. ја^ко

¹¹

And Idumea shall be a desert: every one that passes by shall hiss at it.

¹²

та'ко гл~еT г~ь, неи^сцњлно сᲆкрђше'нїе твое, преѕла` ра'на твоя.

¹²

As Sodom was overthrown and Gomorrha and they that sojourned in her, saith the Lord Almighty, no man shall dwell there, nor shall any son of man inhabit there.

¹³

нњсть сђдїя сђда твое^го на бо'лњзнь и^з#врачева'ся полꙁы нњсть тебњ.

¹³

Behold, he shall come up as a lion out of the midst of Jordan to the place of Ætham: for I will speedily drive them from it, and do ye set the young men against her: for who is like me? and who will withstand me? and who is this shepherd, who shall confront me?

¹⁴

вси` дрђзи твои` забы'ша т^я. ни въпро'сятъ т^я, ја%ко ја%звою вра'жїею порази'хъ т^я накаꙁа'нїемъ ё^тверженомъ. мно'жества ради непра'вды твоея ё^мно'жишася грњси твои`.

¹⁴

Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he has framed against Idumea; and his device, which he has devised against the inhabitants of Thæman: surely the least of the sheep shall be swept off; surely their dwelling shall be made desolate for them.

¹⁵

чт^о въпїеши ѓ^ сᲆкрђше'нїи свое'мъ. неи^сцᲇлна е^сть бо'лњзнь твоя, мно'жесᲄвA ради непра'вды твоея, и^ тве'рдыхъ ради грњхъ твои^хъ сътвори'хъ т^и сїя вся.

¹⁵

For at the sound of their fall the earth was scared, and the cry of the sea was not heard.

¹⁶

того ра'ди вси` ја^дђщеи тя` и^зъе^дени бђдђтъ, и^ вси` вра'зи твои` въ плњненїе эTведђтся. и^ погђбля'ющеи т^я погђбятся. и^ бђдђтъ раꙁъграбля'ющеи т^я въ раз#грабле'нїе.

¹⁶

Behold, he shall look upon her as an eagle, and spread forth his wings over her strongholds; and the heart of the mighty men of Idumea shall be in that day as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

¹⁷

ја%ко ѓ^бяжђ срамъ твои, и^ эT ја%звъ твои^хъ и^з#врачђю т^я рече г~ь. ја%ко и^зверженђ наꙁыва'хђ тя сїѓне, с^е е^сть сеи и^же не имњ възыска'ющаго е^го”

¹⁷

Concerning the sons of Ammon thus saith the Lord, Are there no sons in Israel? or have they no one to succeed them? wherefore has Melchol inherited Galaad, and why shall their people dwell in their cities?

¹⁸

Та'ко гл~еT г~ь, с^е а^ꙁъ възвраще'нїе и^с#селе'нїя і^а'ковля, и^ плњн#ники е^го поми'лђю. и^ въз#гради'тся граD въ высотђ` свою и^ хра'мъ по чинђ` е^го ё^твердится.

¹⁸

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will cause to be heard in Rabbath a tumult of wars; and they shall become a waste and ruined place, and her altars shall be burned with fire; then shall Israel succeed to his dominion.

¹⁹

і^ изыидђтъ и^ꙁ него поющеи, глаs и^гра'ющихъ. и^ ё^мно'жђ я&, и^ не ё^малњ'ютъ.

¹⁹

Howl, O Esebon, for Gai has perished; cry, ye daughters of Rabbath, gird yourselves with sackclothes, and lament; for Melchol shall go into banishment, his priests and his princes together.

²⁰

и^ вни'дђтъ сн~ове и^хъ ја%ко и^ прежде, и^ свњдњнїя и^хъ преD лицемъ мои^мъ и^спра'вятся. и^ посњщђ на вся` стђжа'ющая и^мъ.

²⁰

Why do ye exult in the plains of the Enakim, thou haughty daughter, that trustest in thy treasures, that sayest, Who shall come in to me?

²¹

и^ бђдетъ крњплњ'иши е^го на' ня, и^ княѕь е^го и^ꙁ него и^ꙁы'идетъ. и^ съберђ я& и^ ѓ^братяTся къ мн^њ. кто' бо е^сть тои и^же приложитъ срDце свое ѓ^брати'тися къ мн^њ рече г~ь”

²¹

Behold, I will bring terror upon thee, saith the Lord, from all the country round about thee; and ye shall be scattered every one right before him, and there is none to gather you.

²²

И$ бђдете м^и в люди, и^ а'зъ ва'мъ бђдђ въ б~а.

²³

Concerning Kedar the Queen of the Palace, whom Nabuchodonosor King of Babylon smote, thus saith the Lord; Arise ye, and go up to Kedar, and fill the sons of Kedem.

²³

ја%ко гнњвъ гн~ь и^ꙁыиде ја%ръ, и^ꙁыиде гнњвъ ѓ^браща'емъ на нечести'выя прїидетъ.

²⁴

They shall take their tents and their sheep, they shall take for themselves their garments, and all their baggage and their camels; and summon ye destruction against them from every side.

²⁴

и^ не эTвратиTся гнњвъ ја%росᲄи гн~я, дондеже сътворитъ и^ въста'витъ мышле'нїя срDцA е^го. въ послDњняя дн~и позна'ете я&”

²⁵

Flee ye, dig very deep for a dwelling-place, ye that dwell in the palace; for the king of Babylon has framed a counsel, and devised a device against you.
