You who are enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth
2 before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh.
Stir up your might,
and come to save us!

us, O God;
let your face shine, that we may be saved.

4 O Lord God of hosts,
how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers?
5 You have fed them with the bread of tears,
and given them tears to drink in full measure.
6 You make us the scorn[a] of our neighbors;
our enemies laugh among themselves.

8 You
brought a vine out of Egypt;
you drove out the nations and planted it.
9 You cleared the ground for it;
it took deep root and filled the land.
10 The mountains were covered with its shade,
the mighty cedars with its branches;
11 it sent out its branches to the sea,
and its shoots to the River.
12 Why then have you broken down its walls,
so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?
13 The boar from the forest ravages it,
and all that move in the field feed on it.
you drove out the nations and planted it.

again, O God of hosts;
look down from heaven, and see;

16 They have burned it with fire, they have cut it down;[c]

the one whom you made strong for yourself.
18 Then we will never turn back from you;
give us life, and we will call on your name.

Израиля! внемли; водящий, как овец, Иосифа, восседающий на Херувимах, яви Себя.
2 (79-3) Пред Ефремом и Вениамином и Манассиею воздвигни
силу Твою, и приди спасти нас.
3 (79-4) Боже! восстанови нас; да воссияет лице Твое, и
спасемся!
4 (79-5) Господи, Боже сил! доколе будешь гневен к молитвам
народа Твоего?
5 (79-6) Ты напитал их хлебом слезным, и напоил их слезами
в большой мере,
6 (79-7) положил нас в пререкание соседям нашим, и враги
наши издеваются [над нами].
7 (79-8) Боже сил! восстанови нас; да воссияет лице Твое, и
спасемся!
8 (79-9) Из Египта перенес Ты виноградную лозу, выгнал
народы и посадил ее;
9 (79-10) очистил для нее место, и утвердил корни ее, и она
наполнила землю.
10 (79-11) Горы покрылись тенью ее, и ветви ее как кедры
Божии;
11 (79-12) она пустила ветви свои до моря и отрасли свои до
реки.
12 (79-13) Для чего разрушил Ты ограды ее, так что обрывают
ее все, проходящие по пути?
13 (79-14) Лесной вепрь подрывает ее, и полевой зверь
объедает ее.
14 (79-15) Боже сил! обратись же, призри с неба, и воззри, и
посети виноград сей;
15 (79-16) охрани то, что насадила десница Твоя, и отрасли,
которые Ты укрепил Себе.
16 (79-17) Он пожжен огнем, обсечен; от прещения лица Твоего
погибнут.
17 (79-18) Да будет рука Твоя над мужем десницы Твоей, над
сыном человеческим, которого Ты укрепил Себе,
18 (79-19) и мы не отступим от Тебя; оживи нас, и мы будем
призывать имя Твое.

(76-2) Глас мой к Богу, и я буду взывать; глас мой к Богу, и Он услышит меня.
2 (76-3)
В день скорби моей ищу Господа; рука моя простерта ночью и не опускается; душа
моя отказывается от утешения.
3 (76-4)
Вспоминаю о Боге и трепещу; помышляю, и изнемогает дух мой.
4 (76-5)
Ты не даешь мне сомкнуть очей моих; я потрясен и не могу говорить.
5 (76-6)
Размышляю о днях древних, о летах веков [минувших];
6 (76-7)
припоминаю песни мои в ночи, беседую с сердцем моим, и дух мой испытывает:
7 (76-8)
неужели навсегда отринул Господь, и не будет более благоволить?
8 (76-9)
неужели навсегда престала милость Его, и пресеклось слово Его в род и род?
9 (76-10)
неужели Бог забыл миловать? Неужели во гневе затворил щедроты Свои?
10 (76-11)
И сказал я: 'вот мое горе--изменение десницы Всевышнего'.
11 (76-12)
Буду вспоминать о делах Господа; буду вспоминать о чудесах Твоих древних;
12 (76-13)
буду вникать во все дела Твои, размышлять о великих Твоих деяниях.
13 (76-14)
Боже! свят путь Твой. Кто Бог так великий, как Бог [наш]!
14 (76-15)
Ты--Бог, творящий чудеса; Ты явил могущество Свое среди народов;
15 (76-16)
Ты избавил мышцею народ Твой, сынов Иакова и Иосифа.
16 (76-17)
Видели Тебя, Боже, воды, видели Тебя воды и убоялись, и вострепетали бездны.
17 (76-18)
Облака изливали воды, тучи издавали гром, и стрелы Твои летали.
18 (76-19)
Глас грома Твоего в круге небесном; молнии освещали вселенную; земля
содрогалась и тряслась.
19 (76-20)
Путь Твой в море, и стезя Твоя в водах великих, и следы Твои неведомы.
20 (76-21)
Как стадо, вел Ты народ Твой рукою Моисея и Аарона.

Psalm 79 -- Russian Synodal Bible
(78-1) ^^Псалом Асафа.^^ Боже! язычники пришли в наследие
Твое, осквернили святый храм Твой, Иерусалим превратили в развалины;
2 (78-2)
трупы рабов Твоих отдали на съедение птицам небесным, тела святых Твоих--зверям
земным;
3 (78-3)
пролили кровь их, как воду, вокруг Иерусалима, и некому было похоронить их.
4 (78-4)
Мы сделались посмешищем у соседей наших, поруганием и посрамлением у окружающих

Доколе, Господи, будешь гневаться непрестанно, будет пылать ревность Твоя, как
огонь?
6 (78-6)
Пролей гнев Твой на народы, которые не знают Тебя, и на царства, которые имени
Твоего не призывают,

ибо они пожрали Иакова и жилище его опустошили.
8 (78-8)
Не помяни нам грехов [наших] предков; скоро да предварят нас щедроты Твои, ибо

язычниками пред глазами нашими отмщение за пролитую кровь рабов Твоих.

Да придет пред лице Твое стенание узника; могуществом мышцы Твоей сохрани
обреченных на смерть.

Семикратно возврати соседям нашим в недро их поношение, которым они Тебя,

Genesis 44:18-34 – New Revised Standard
Version
Judah Pleads for Benjamin’s Release
18 Then Judah stepped up to him and said, “O my lord, let your servant please speak a word in my lord’s ears, and do not be angry with your servant; for you are like Pharaoh himself.19 My lord asked his servants, saying, ‘Have you a father or a brother?’ 20 And we said to my lord, ‘We have a father, an old man, and a young brother, the child of his old age. His brother is dead; he alone is left of his mother’s children, and his father loves him.’ 21 Then you said to your servants, ‘Bring him down to me, so that I may set my eyes on him.’ 22 We said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.’ 23 Then you said to your servants, ‘Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you shall see my face no more.’ 24 When we went back to your servant my father we told him the words of my lord. 25 And when our father said, ‘Go again, buy us a little food,’ 26 we said, ‘We cannot go down. Only if our youngest brother goes with us, will we go down; for we cannot see the man’s face unless our youngest brother is with us.’ 27 Then your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons; 28 one left me, and I said, Surely he has been torn to pieces; and I have never seen him since. 29 If you take this one also from me, and harm comes to him, you will bring down my gray hairs in sorrow to Sheol.’ 30 Now therefore, when I come to your servant my father and the boy is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the boy’s life, 31 when he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die; and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. 32 For your servant became surety for the boy to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I will bear the blame in the sight of my father all my life.’ 33 Now therefore, please let your servant remain as a slave to my lord in place of the boy; and let the boy go back with his brothers. 34 For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the suffering that would come upon my father.”

Бытие 44:18-34
Genesis
44:18-34 -- Russian Slovo Zhizny
Иуда просит об освобождении младшего брата Вениамина
18 Тогда Иуда подошел к нему и сказал:– Пожалуйста, мой господин, позволь твоему рабу сказать моему господину слово. Не гневайся на твоего раба, хотя ты равен самому фараону. 19 Мой господин спросил своих рабов: «Есть ли у вас отец или брат?» 20 И мы ответили: «У нас есть престарелый отец и есть его юный сын, рожденный ему в его старости. Его брат умер, и он остался один из сыновей своей матери, и отец любит его». 21 Тогда ты сказал своим рабам: «Приведите его ко мне, чтобы мне посмотреть на него». 22 А мы ответили моему господину: «Мальчик не может оставить отца, а если оставит, то отец умрет». 23 Но ты сказал своим рабам: «Пока ваш брат не придет сюда с вами, не показывайтесь мне на глаза». 24 Вернувшись к твоему рабу, моему отцу, мы пересказали ему, что сказал мой господин. 25 Наш отец сказал: «Вернитесь и купите еще немного еды». 26 Но мы ответили: «Мы не можем пойти; только если младший брат пойдет с нами, тогда мы пойдем. Мы не можем и на глаза показаться тому человеку, если не будет с нами младшего брата».
27 Твой раб, мой отец, сказал нам: «Вы сами знаете, что моя жена родила мне двоих сыновей. 28 Один из них ушел от меня, и я сказал: “Конечно, он был растерзан на куски”, – и с тех пор я его не видел. 29 Если вы возьмете у меня и другого, и с ним случится беда, вы сведете мою седую голову в мир мертвых от горя».
30 Поэтому, если мальчика не будет с нами, когда я вернусь к твоему рабу, моему отцу, и если мой отец, который так привязан к этому мальчику, 31 увидит, что его с нами нет, он умрет. Твои рабы сведут седую голову нашего отца в мир мертвых от скорби.
32 Твой раб поручился за безопасность мальчика перед отцом. Я сказал: «Если я не приведу его к тебе, то вина перед тобой, отец, будет на мне всю жизнь». 33 Итак, молю тебя, позволь твоему рабу остаться здесь рабом моего господина вместо мальчика, и позволь мальчику вернуться с братьями. 34 Как я могу вернуться к отцу, если мальчика со мной не будет? Да не увижу я горя моего отца.

The Unmarried and the Widows
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no command of the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. 26 I think that, in view of the impending[a] crisis, it is well for you to remain as you are. 27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife. 28 But if you marry, you do not sin, and if a virgin marries, she does not sin. Yet those who marry will experience distress in this life,[b] and I would spare you that. 29 I mean, brothers and sisters,[c] the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, 30 and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, 31 and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.Footnotes:

Mark 5:21-43 – New Revised Standard Version
Jesus Heals the Gerasene Demoniac
They
came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gerasenes.[a] 2 And when he had stepped out of the boat, immediately
a man out of the tombs with an unclean spirit met him. 3 He lived among the tombs; and no one could
restrain him any more, even with a chain; 4 for
he had often been restrained with shackles and chains, but the chains he
wrenched apart, and the shackles he broke in pieces; and no one had the
strength to subdue him. 5 Night
and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always howling and bruising
himself with stones. 6 When he
saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and bowed down before him; 7 and he shouted at the top of his voice, “What
have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God,
do not torment me.” 8 For he had
said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!” 9 Then Jesus[b] asked him, “What is your
name?” He replied, “My name is Legion; for we are many.” 10 He begged him earnestly not to send them out of
the country. 11 Now there on the
hillside a great herd of swine was feeding; 12 and
the unclean spirits[c] begged him, “Send us into
the swine; let us enter them.”
13 So
he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered the
swine; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank
into the sea, and were drowned in the sea.
14 The swineherds ran off and told it in the city and in the country. Then people came to see what it was that had happened. 15 They came to Jesus and saw the demoniac sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, the very man who had had the legion; and they were afraid. 16 Those who had seen what had happened to the demoniac and to the swine reported it. 17 Then they began to beg Jesus[d] to leave their neighborhood. 18 As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him. 19 But Jesus[e] refused, and said to him, “Go home to your friends, and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy he has shown you.” 20 And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him; and everyone was amazed.
A Girl Restored to Life and a Woman Healed
21 When Jesus had crossed again in the boat[f] to the other side, a great crowd gathered around him; and he was by the sea. 22 Then one of the leaders of the synagogue named Jairus came and, when he saw him, fell at his feet 23 and begged him repeatedly, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and live.” 24 So he went with him.And a large crowd followed him and pressed in on him. 25 Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years. 26 She had endured much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had; and she was no better, but rather grew worse. 27 She had heard about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 for she said, “If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well.” 29 Immediately her hemorrhage stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. 30 Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothes?” 31 And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, ‘Who touched me?’” 32 He looked all around to see who had done it. 33 But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, fell down before him, and told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”
35 While he was still speaking, some people came from the leader’s house to say, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the teacher any further?” 36 But overhearing[g] what they said, Jesus said to the leader of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” 37 He allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James. 38 When they came to the house of the leader of the synagogue, he saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. 39 When he had entered, he said to them, “Why do you make a commotion and weep? The child is not dead but sleeping.” 40 And they laughed at him. Then he put them all outside, and took the child’s father and mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was. 41 He took her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha cum,” which means, “Little girl, get up!” 42 And immediately the girl got up and began to walk about (she was twelve years of age). At this they were overcome with amazement.
43 He strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

Господство Иисуса над болезнью и смертью
(Мат. 9:18-26; Лк. 8:41-56)
21 Когда Иисус переправился в лодке обратно на другую сторону озера, вокруг Него на берегу собралась большая толпа. 22 Тут пришел Иаир, один из начальников синагоги. Он, увидев Иисуса, пал к Его ногам 23 и стал умолять:– Моя маленькая дочь умирает, приди и возложи на нее руки, чтобы она исцелилась и осталась жива.
24 Иисус пошел с ним, а за Иисусом следовала большая толпа и теснила Его со всех сторон. 25 Там была женщина, двенадцать лет страдавшая кровотечением. 26 Она натерпелась от многих врачей, истратила на лечение все, что у нее было, но не получила никакой помощи; напротив, ей становилось все хуже. 27 Она слышала об Иисусе, и поэтому она подошла сзади к Нему сквозь толпу и прикоснулась к Его одежде. 28 «Если я хоть к одежде Его прикоснусь, то выздоровею», – говорила она.
29 Ее кровотечение сразу же остановилось, и она почувствовала, что исцелена. 30 А Иисус мгновенно почувствовал, что из Него вышла сила. Он обернулся в толпе и спросил:
– Кто прикоснулся к Моей одежде?
31 Ученики ответили Ему:
– Ты же видишь, что толпа теснит Тебя со всех сторон. Что же Ты спрашиваешь, кто к Тебе прикоснулся?
32 Но Иисус обводил толпу взглядом, чтобы увидеть ту, которая это сделала.
33 Женщина, дрожа от страха и зная, что с ней произошло, подошла, упала к Его ногам и рассказала всю правду. 34 Иисус сказал ей:
– Дочь Моя, твоя вера спасла тебя! Ступай с миром и будь здорова от своего недуга.
35 Пока Иисус еще говорил, пришли люди из дома начальника синагоги и передали:
– Твоя дочь умерла, зачем еще беспокоить Учителя?
36 Но Иисус, не обращая внимания на их слова, сказал начальнику синагоги:
– Не бойся, только верь!
37 Он не позволил идти с Ним никому, кроме Петра, Иакова и Иоанна, брата Иакова.
38 Когда они подошли к дому начальника, Он увидел смятение. Люди плакали и причитали. 39 Иисус вошел в дом и спросил их:
– Почему вы так скорбите и плачете? Девочка не умерла, она спит.
40 Над Ним начали смеяться. Но Иисус велел всем выйти, а Сам с отцом и матерью девочки и своими спутниками вошел в комнату, где она лежала. 41 Взяв ее за руку, Иисус сказал:
– Талита, кум!
(Что значит: «Девочка, говорю тебе: встань!»)
42 Девочка сразу встала и начала ходить (ей было лет двенадцать). Все были сильно удивлены. 43 Но Иисус строго наказал им, чтобы никто не узнал о случившемся, а девочку велел покормить.
