For thus says the LORD concerning the sons and daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them and their fathers who begot them in this land:

«They shall die gruesome deaths; they shall not be lamented nor shall they be buried, but they shall be like refuse on the face of the earth. They shall be consumed by the sword and by famine, and their corpses shall be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.»

For thus says the LORD: «Do not enter the house of mourning, nor go to lament or bemoan them; for I have taken away My peace from this people,» says the LORD, «lovingkindness and mercies.

Both the great and the small shall die in this land. They shall not be buried; neither shall men lament for them, cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them.

Nor shall men break bread in mourning for them, to comfort them for the dead; nor shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or their mother.

Also you shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and drink.»

For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: «Behold, I will cause to cease from this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.

«And it shall be, when you show this people all these words, and they say to you, «Why has the LORD pronounced all this great disaster against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?́

then you shall say to them, «Because your fathers have forsaken Me,́ says the LORD; «they have walked after other gods and have served them and worshiped them, and have forsaken Me and not kept My law.

And you have done worse than your fathers, for behold, each one follows the dictates of his own evil heart, so that no one listens to Me.

Therefore I will cast you out of this land into a land that you do not know, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night, where I will not show you favor.́

«Therefore behold, the days are coming,» says the LORD, «that it shall no more be said, «The LORD lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of Egypt,́

but, «The LORD lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had driven them.́ For I will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers.

«Behold, I will send for many fishermen,» says the LORD, «and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their iniquity hidden from My eyes.

And first I will repay double for their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.»

O LORD, my strength and my fortress, My refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You From the ends of the earth and say, «Surely our fathers have inherited lies, Worthlessness and unprofitable things.»

Will a man make gods for himself, Which are not gods?

«Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know My hand and My might; And they shall know that My name is the LORD.

Церковнославянский (рус)

И бы́сть сло́во Госпо́дне ко мнѣ́, реку́щее: и ты́ да не по́ймеши жены́,

и не роди́тся тебѣ́ сы́нъ, ниже́ дще́рь на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ.

Я́ко сiя́ глаго́летъ Госпо́дь о сынѣ́хъ и дще́рехъ, и́же родя́тся на мѣ́стѣ се́мъ, и о ма́терехъ и́хъ, я́же роди́ша и́хъ, и о отцѣ́хъ и́хъ роди́вшихъ я́ въ земли́ се́й:

сме́ртiю лю́тою изо́мрутъ, не опла́чутся и не погребу́тся: во о́бразъ на лицы́ земли́ бу́дутъ и мече́мъ паду́тъ и гла́домъ сконча́ются, и бу́дутъ тру́пiе и́хъ во снѣ́дь пти́цамъ небе́снымъ и звѣре́мъ земны́мъ.

Сiя́ глаго́летъ Госпо́дь: да не вни́деши въ до́мъ и́хъ пи́рный, ни да хо́диши пла́кати, ниже́ да рыда́еши и́хъ, поне́же отъя́хъ ми́ръ мо́й от люді́й си́хъ, рече́ Госпо́дь, ми́лость и щедро́ты.

И у́мрутъ вели́цыи и ма́лiи въ земли́ се́й: не погребу́тся, ни опла́чутся, ниже́ терза́нiе о ни́хъ бу́детъ, ниже́ обрі́ются ра́ди и́хъ,

и не прело́мятъ хлѣ́ба во стена́нiи и́хъ ко утѣше́нiю надъ ме́ртвымъ, и не даду́тъ и́мъ питiя́ ча́ши ко утѣше́нiю надъ отце́мъ и ма́терiю и́хъ.

И въ до́мъ пи́рный да не вни́деши сѣдѣ́ти съ ни́ми, е́же я́сти и пи́ти.

Поне́же сiя́ глаго́летъ Госпо́дь си́лъ, Бо́гъ Изра́илевъ: се́, а́зъ отиму́ от мѣ́ста сего́ во о́чiю ва́шею и во дне́хъ ва́шихъ гла́съ ра́дости и гла́съ весе́лiя, гла́съ жениха́ и гла́съ невѣ́сты.

И бу́детъ, егда́ возвѣсти́ши лю́демъ си́мъ вся́ словеса́ сiя́, и реку́тъ къ тебѣ́: вску́ю глаго́лалъ е́сть Госпо́дь на на́съ вся́ зла́я сiя́? ка́я непра́вда на́ша? и кі́й грѣ́хъ на́шъ, и́мже согрѣши́хомъ Го́споду Бо́гу на́шему?

И рече́ши къ ни́мъ: поне́же оста́виша мя́ отцы́ ва́ши, глаго́летъ Госпо́дь, и идо́ша вслѣ́дъ бого́въ чужди́хъ, и послужи́ша и́мъ и поклони́шася и́мъ, мене́ же оста́виша и зако́на моего́ не сохрани́ша:

и вы́ го́рше дѣ́ласте, не́же отцы́ ва́ши, и се́, вы́ хо́дите кі́йждо вслѣ́дъ по́хотей се́рдца ва́шего лука́ваго, е́же не слу́шати мене́:

и изри́ну ва́съ от земли́ сея́ въ зе́млю, ея́же не вѣ́сте вы́ и отцы́ ва́ши, и послу́жите та́мо бого́мъ чужди́мъ де́нь и но́щь, и́же не даду́тъ ва́мъ ми́лости.

Сего́ ра́ди, се́, дні́е гряду́тъ, глаго́летъ Госпо́дь, и не реку́тъ ктому́: жи́въ Госпо́дь, и́же изведе́ сыно́въ Изра́илевыхъ от земли́ Еги́петскiя:

но: живе́тъ Госпо́дь, и́же изведе́ сыно́въ Изра́илевыхъ от земли́ сѣ́верныя и от всѣ́хъ стра́нъ, а́може изве́ржени бы́ша: и возвращу́ и́хъ въ зе́млю и́хъ, ю́же да́хъ отце́мъ и́хъ.

Се́, а́зъ послю́ ры́бари мно́ги, рече́ Госпо́дь, и уловя́тъ и́хъ: и посе́мъ послю́ мно́ги ловцы́, и уловя́тъ и́хъ на вся́цѣй горѣ́ и на вся́цѣмъ хо́лмѣ и от пеще́ръ ка́менныхъ.

Я́ко о́чи мои́ на всѣ́хъ путе́хъ и́хъ, не сокрове́ни су́ть от лица́ моего́, и не утае́на су́ть беззако́нiя и́хъ от о́чiю мое́ю.

И возда́мъ пе́рвѣе сугу́бая беззако́нiя и грѣхи́ и́хъ, и́миже оскверни́ша зе́млю мою́ въ мертвечи́нахъ ме́рзостей свои́хъ и въ беззако́нiихъ свои́хъ, и́миже напо́лниша достоя́нiе мое́.

Го́споди, ты́ крѣ́пость моя́ и по́мощь моя́ и прибѣ́жище мое́ во дне́хъ злы́хъ: къ тебѣ́ язы́цы прiи́дутъ от послѣ́днихъ земли́ и реку́тъ: вои́стинну лжи́выхъ стяжа́ша отцы́ на́ши и́доловъ, и нѣ́сть въ ни́хъ по́льзы.

Еда́ сотвори́тъ себѣ́ человѣ́къ бо́ги, и ті́и не су́ть бо́зи?

Сего́ ра́ди, се́, а́зъ покажу́ и́мъ во вре́мя сiе́ ру́ку мою́ и зна́ему сотворю́ и́мъ си́лу мою́, и позна́ютъ, я́ко и́мя мнѣ́ Госпо́дь.

καὶ σὺ μὴ λάβῃς γυναῖκα λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ

καὶ οὐ γεννηθήσεταί σοι υἱὸς οὐδὲ θυγάτηρ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ

ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος περὶ τῶν υἱῶν καὶ περὶ τῶν θυγατέρων τῶν γεννωμένων ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ καὶ περὶ τῶν μητέρων αὐτῶν τῶν τετοκυιῶν αὐτοὺς καὶ περὶ τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν τῶν γεγεννηκότων αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ

ἐν θανάτῳ νοσερῷ ἀποθανοῦνται οὐ κοπήσονται καὶ οὐ ταφήσονται εἰς παράδειγμα ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς ἔσονται καὶ τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς καὶ τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐν μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ ἐν λιμῷ συντελεσθήσονται

τάδε λέγει κύριος μὴ εἰσέλθῃς εἰς θίασον αὐτῶν καὶ μὴ πορευθῇς τοῦ κόψασθαι καὶ μὴ πενθήσῃς αὐτούς ὅτι ἀφέστακα τὴν εἰρήνην μου ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου

οὐ μὴ κόψωνται αὐτοὺς οὐδὲ ἐντομίδας οὐ μὴ ποιήσωσιν καὶ οὐ ξυρήσονται

καὶ οὐ μὴ κλασθῇ ἄρτος ἐν πένθει αὐτῶν εἰς παράκλησιν ἐπὶ τεθνηκότι οὐ ποτιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ποτήριον εἰς παράκλησιν ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ

εἰς οἰκίαν πότου οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ συγκαθίσαι μετ᾿ αὐτῶν τοῦ φαγεῖν καὶ πιεῖν

διότι τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ καταλύω ἐκ τοῦ τόπου τούτου ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ὑμῶν φωνὴν χαρᾶς καὶ φωνὴν εὐφροσύνης φωνὴν νυμφίου καὶ φωνὴν νύμφης

καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἀναγγείλῃς τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ ἅπαντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα καὶ εἴπωσιν πρὸς σέ διὰ τί ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς πάντα τὰ κακὰ ταῦτα τίς ἡ ἀδικία ἡμῶν καὶ τίς ἡ ἁμαρτία ἡμῶν ἣν ἡμάρτομεν ἔναντι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν

καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ἐγκατέλιπόν με οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν λέγει κύριος καὶ ᾤχοντο ὀπίσω θεῶν ἀλλοτρίων καὶ ἐδούλευσαν αὐτοῖς καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐμὲ ἐγκατέλιπον καὶ τὸν νόμον μου οὐκ ἐφυλάξαντο

καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐπονηρεύσασθε ὑπὲρ τοὺς πατέρας ὑμῶν καὶ ἰδοὺ ὑμεῖς πορεύεσθε ἕκαστος ὀπίσω τῶν ἀρεστῶν τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν τῆς πονηρᾶς τοῦ μὴ ὑπακούειν μου

καὶ ἀπορρίψω ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ταύτης εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν καὶ δουλεύσετε ἐκεῖ θεοῖς ἑτέροις οἳ οὐ δώσουσιν ὑμῖν ἔλεος

διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται λέγει κύριος καὶ οὐκ ἐροῦσιν ἔτι ζῇ κύριος ὁ ἀναγαγὼν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου

ἀλλά ζῇ κύριος ὃς ἀνήγαγεν τὸν οἶκον Ισραηλ ἀπὸ γῆς βορρᾶ καὶ ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν χωρῶν οὗ ἐξώσθησαν ἐκεῖ καὶ ἀποκαταστήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν

ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τοὺς ἁλεεῖς τοὺς πολλούς λέγει κύριος καὶ ἁλιεύσουσιν αὐτούς καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀποστελῶ τοὺς πολλοὺς θηρευτάς καὶ θηρεύσουσιν αὐτοὺς ἐπάνω παντὸς ὄρους καὶ ἐπάνω παντὸς βουνοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν τρυμαλιῶν τῶν πετρῶν

ὅτι οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐπὶ πάσας τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐκρύβη τὰ ἀδικήματα αὐτῶν ἀπέναντι τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου

καὶ ἀνταποδώσω διπλᾶς τὰς ἀδικίας αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν ἐφ᾿ αἷς ἐβεβήλωσαν τὴν γῆν μου ἐν τοῖς θνησιμαίοις τῶν βδελυγμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτῶν ἐν αἷς ἐπλημμέλησαν τὴν κληρονομίαν μου

κύριε ἰσχύς μου καὶ βοήθειά μου καὶ καταφυγή μου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κακῶν πρὸς σὲ ἔθνη ἥξουσιν ἀπ᾿ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐροῦσιν ὡς ψευδῆ ἐκτήσαντο οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν εἴδωλα καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς ὠφέλημα

εἰ ποιήσει ἑαυτῷ ἄνθρωπος θεούς καὶ οὗτοι οὔκ εἰσιν θεοί

διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δηλώσω αὐτοῖς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τούτῳ τὴν χεῖρά μου καὶ γνωριῶ αὐτοῖς τὴν δύναμίν μου καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ὄνομά μοι κύριος
