Luke 1 глава

Luke
New Living Translation → Елизаветинская Библия

Many people have set out to write accounts about the events that have been fulfilled among us.

Поне́же ѹ҆́бѡ мно́зи нача́ша чини́ти по́вѣсть ѡ҆ и҆звѣ́ствованныхъ въ на́съ веще́хъ,

They used the eyewitness reports circulating among us from the early disciples.a

ѩ҆́коже преда́ша на́мъ, и҆́же и҆спе́рва самови́дцы и҆ слѹ́ги бы́вшїи словесѐ:

Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write an accurate account for you, most honorable Theophilus,

и҆зво́лисѧ и҆ мнѣ̀ послѣ́довавшѹ вы́ше всѧ҄ и҆спы́тнѡ, порѧ́дѹ писа́ти тебѣ̀, держа́вный ѳеофі́ле,

so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught.

да разѹмѣ́еши, ѡ҆ ни́хже наѹчи́лсѧ є҆сѝ словесѣ́хъ ѹ҆твержде́нїе.

When Herod was king of Judea, there was a Jewish priest named Zechariah. He was a member of the priestly order of Abijah, and his wife, Elizabeth, was also from the priestly line of Aaron.

(За҄ 2.) Бы́сть во днѝ и҆́рѡда царѧ̀ ї҆ѹде́йска, ї҆ере́й нѣ́кїй, и҆́менемъ заха́рїа, ѿ дневны́ѧ чреды̀ а҆вїа́ни: и҆ жена̀ є҆гѡ̀ ѿ дще́рей а҆арѡ́новѣхъ, и҆ и҆́мѧ є҆́й є҆лїсаве́тъ.

Zechariah and Elizabeth were righteous in God’s eyes, careful to obey all of the Lord’s commandments and regulations.

Бѣ́ста же првдна ѻ҆́ба пред̾ бг҃омъ, ходѧ҄ща во всѣ́хъ за́повѣдехъ и҆ ѡ҆правда́нїихъ гд҇нихъ безпорѡ́чна.

They had no children because Elizabeth was unable to conceive, and they were both very old.

И҆ не бѣ̀ и҆́ма ча́да, поне́же є҆лїсаве́тъ бѣ̀ непло́ды, и҆ ѻ҆́ба заматорѣ҄вша во дне́хъ свои́хъ бѣ́ста.

One day Zechariah was serving God in the Temple, for his order was on duty that week.

Бы́сть же слѹжа́щѹ є҆мѹ̀ въ чинѹ̀ чреды̀ своеѧ̀ пред̾ бг҃омъ,

As was the custom of the priests, he was chosen by lot to enter the sanctuary of the Lord and burn incense.

по ѡ҆бы́чаю свѧще́нничества ключи́сѧ є҆мѹ̀ покади́ти, вше́дшѹ въ це́рковь гд҇ню:

While the incense was being burned, a great crowd stood outside, praying.

и҆ всѐ мно́жество люде́й бѣ̀ моли́твѹ дѣ́ѧ внѣ̀, въ го́дъ {во вре́мѧ} ѳѷмїа́ма:

While Zechariah was in the sanctuary, an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing to the right of the incense altar.

ѩ҆ви́сѧ же є҆мѹ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ гд҇ень, стоѧ̀ ѡ҆деснѹ́ю ѻ҆лтарѧ̀ кади́лнагѡ:

Zechariah was shaken and overwhelmed with fear when he saw him.

и҆ смѹти́сѧ заха́рїа ви́дѣвъ, и҆ стра́хъ нападѐ на́нь.

But the angel said, “Don’t be afraid, Zechariah! God has heard your prayer. Your wife, Elizabeth, will give you a son, and you are to name him John.

Рече́ же къ немѹ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ: не бо́йсѧ, заха́рїе: занѐ ѹ҆слы́шана бы́сть моли́тва твоѧ̀, и҆ жена̀ твоѧ̀ є҆лїсаве́ть роди́тъ сы́на тебѣ̀, и҆ нарече́ши и҆́мѧ є҆мѹ̀ ї҆ѡа́ннъ.

You will have great joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth,

И҆ бѹ́детъ тебѣ̀ ра́дость и҆ весе́лїе, и҆ мно́зи ѡ҆ рождествѣ̀ є҆гѡ̀ возра́дѹютсѧ.

for he will be great in the eyes of the Lord. He must never touch wine or other alcoholic drinks. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before his birth.b

Бѹ́детъ бо ве́лїй пред̾ гд҇емъ: и҆ вїна̀ и҆ сїке́ра не и҆́мать пи́ти, и҆ дх҃а ст҃а́гѡ и҆спо́лнитсѧ є҆щѐ и҆з̾ чре́ва ма́тере своеѧ̀:

And he will turn many Israelites to the Lord their God.

и҆ мно́гихъ ѿ сынѡ́въ ї҆и҃левыхъ ѡ҆брати́тъ ко гд҇ѹ бг҃ѹ и҆́хъ.

He will be a man with the spirit and power of Elijah. He will prepare the people for the coming of the Lord. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children,c and he will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly.”

И҆ то́й пред̾и́детъ пред̾ ни́мъ дѹ́хомъ и҆ си́лою и҆лїино́ю, ѡ҆брати́ти сердца̀ ѻ҆тцє́мъ на ча҄да, и҆ проти҄вныѧ въ мѹ́дрости пра́ведныхъ, ѹ҆гото́вати гд҇ви лю́ди совершє́ны.

Zechariah said to the angel, “How can I be sure this will happen? I’m an old man now, and my wife is also well along in years.”

И҆ речѐ заха́рїа ко а҆́гг҃лѹ: по чесомѹ̀ разѹмѣ́ю сїѐ; а҆́зъ бо є҆́смь ста́ръ, и҆ жена̀ моѧ̀ заматорѣ́вши во дне́хъ свои́хъ.

Then the angel said, “I am Gabriel! I stand in the very presence of God. It was he who sent me to bring you this good news!

И҆ ѿвѣща́въ а҆́гг҃лъ речѐ є҆мѹ̀: а҆́зъ є҆́смь гаврїи́лъ предстоѧ́й пред̾ бг҃омъ, и҆ по́сланъ є҆́смь глаго́лати къ тебѣ̀ и҆ благовѣсти́ти тебѣ̀ сїѧ҄:

But now, since you didn’t believe what I said, you will be silent and unable to speak until the child is born. For my words will certainly be fulfilled at the proper time.”

и҆ сѐ бѹ́деши молчѧ̀ и҆ не могі́й проглаго́лати, до негѡ́же днѐ бѹ́дѹтъ сїѧ҄: занѐ не вѣ́ровалъ є҆сѝ словесє́мъ мои҄мъ, ѩ҆́же сбѹ́дѹтсѧ во вре́мѧ своѐ.

Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah to come out of the sanctuary, wondering why he was taking so long.

И҆ бѣ́ша лю́дїе ждѹ́ще заха́рїю: и҆ чѹдѧ́хѹсѧ коснѧ́щѹ є҆мѹ̀ въ це́ркви.

When he finally did come out, he couldn’t speak to them. Then they realized from his gestures and his silence that he must have seen a vision in the sanctuary.

И҆зше́дъ же не можа́ше глаго́лати къ ни҄мъ: и҆ разѹмѣ́ша, ѩ҆́кѡ видѣ́нїе ви́дѣ въ це́ркви: и҆ то́й бѣ̀ помава́ѧ и҆̀мъ, и҆ пребыва́ше нѣ́мъ.

When Zechariah’s week of service in the Temple was over, he returned home.

И҆ бы́сть ѩ҆́кѡ и҆спо́лнишасѧ дні́е слѹ́жбы є҆гѡ̀, и҆́де въ до́мъ сво́й.

Soon afterward his wife, Elizabeth, became pregnant and went into seclusion for five months.

(За҄ 3.) По си́хъ же дне́хъ зача́тъ є҆лїсаве́тъ жена̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ таѧ́шесѧ мѣ҄сѧцъ пѧ́ть, глаго́лющи:

“How kind the Lord is!” she exclaimed. “He has taken away my disgrace of having no children.”

ѩ҆́кѡ та́кѡ мнѣ̀ сотворѝ гд҇ь во дни҄, въ нѧ́же призрѣ̀ ѿѧ́ти поноше́нїе моѐ въ человѣ́цѣхъ.

In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a village in Galilee,

Въ мѣ́сѧцъ же шесты́й по́сланъ бы́сть а҆́гг҃лъ гаврїи́лъ ѿ бг҃а во гра́дъ галїле́йскїй, є҆мѹ́же и҆́мѧ назаре́тъ,

to a virgin named Mary. She was engaged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of King David.

къ дв҃ѣ ѡ҆брѹче́ннѣй мѹ́жеви, є҆мѹ́же и҆́мѧ ї҆ѡ́сифъ, ѿ до́мѹ дв҃дова: и҆ и҆́мѧ дв҃ѣ мр҃їа́мь.

Gabriel appeared to her and said, “Greetings,d favored woman! The Lord is with you!e”

И҆ вше́дъ къ не́й а҆́гг҃лъ речѐ: ра́дѹйсѧ, блгдтнаѧ: гд҇ь съ тобо́ю: блг҇ве́на ты̀ въ жена́хъ.

Confused and disturbed, Mary tried to think what the angel could mean.

Ѻ҆на́ же ви́дѣвши смѹти́сѧ ѡ҆ словесѝ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ помышлѧ́ше, каково̀ бѹ́детъ цѣлова́нїе сїѐ.

“Don’t be afraid, Mary,” the angel told her, “for you have found favor with God!

И҆ речѐ а҆́гг҃лъ є҆́й: не бо́йсѧ, мр҃їа́мь: ѡ҆брѣла́ бо є҆сѝ блгдть ѹ҆ бг҃а.

You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.

И҆ сѐ зачне́ши во чре́вѣ, и҆ роди́ши сн҃а, и҆ нарече́ши и҆́мѧ є҆мѹ̀ ї҆и҃съ.

He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David.

Се́й бѹ́детъ ве́лїй, и҆ сн҃ъ вы́шнѧгѡ нарече́тсѧ: и҆ да́стъ є҆мѹ̀ гд҇ь бг҃ъ пр҇то́лъ дв҃да ѻ҆тца̀ є҆гѡ̀:

And he will reign over Israelf forever; his Kingdom will never end!”

и҆ воцр҃и́тсѧ въ домѹ̀ ї҆а́кѡвли во вѣ́ки, и҆ цр҇твїю є҆гѡ̀ не бѹ́детъ конца̀.

Mary asked the angel, “But how can this happen? I am a virgin.”

Рече́ же мр҃їа́мь ко а҆́гг҃лѹ: ка́кѡ бѹ́детъ сїѐ, и҆дѣ́же мѹ́жа не зна́ю;

The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.

И҆ ѿвѣща́въ а҆́гг҃лъ речѐ є҆́й: дх҃ъ ст҃ы́й на́йдетъ на тѧ̀, и҆ си́ла вы́шнѧгѡ ѡ҆сѣни́тъ тѧ̀: тѣ́мже и҆ ражда́емое ст҃о нарече́тсѧ сн҃ъ бж҃їй:

What’s more, your relative Elizabeth has become pregnant in her old age! People used to say she was barren, but she has conceived a son and is now in her sixth month.

и҆ сѐ, є҆лїсаве́тъ ю҆́жика твоѧ̀, и҆ та̀ зача́тъ сы́на въ ста́рости свое́й: и҆ се́й мѣ́сѧцъ шесты́й є҆́сть є҆́й нарица́емѣй непло́ды:

For the word of God will never fail.g”

ѩ҆́кѡ не и҆знемо́жетъ ѹ҆ бг҃а всѧ́къ глаго́лъ.

Mary responded, “I am the Lord’s servant. May everything you have said about me come true.” And then the angel left her.

Рече́ же мр҃їа́мь: сѐ раба̀ гд҇нѧ: бѹ́ди мнѣ̀ по глаго́лѹ твоемѹ̀. И҆ ѿи́де ѿ неѧ̀ а҆́гг҃лъ.

A few days later Mary hurried to the hill country of Judea, to the town

(За҄ 4.) Воста́вши же мр҃їа́мь во дни҄ ты҄ѧ, и҆́де въ гѡ́рнѧѧ со тща́нїемъ, во гра́дъ ї҆ѹ́довъ:

where Zechariah lived. She entered the house and greeted Elizabeth.

и҆ вни́де въ до́мъ заха́рїинъ, и҆ цѣлова̀ є҆лїсаве́тъ.

At the sound of Mary’s greeting, Elizabeth’s child leaped within her, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

И҆ бы́сть ѩ҆́кѡ ѹ҆слы́ша є҆лїсаве́тъ цѣлова́нїе мр҃і́ино, взыгра́сѧ младе́нецъ во чре́вѣ є҆ѧ̀: и҆ и҆спо́лнисѧ дх҃а ст҃а є҆лїсаве́тъ,

Elizabeth gave a glad cry and exclaimed to Mary, “God has blessed you above all women, and your child is blessed.

и҆ возопѝ гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ, и҆ речѐ: блг҇ве́на ты̀ въ жена́хъ, и҆ блг҇ве́нъ пло́дъ чре́ва твоегѡ̀:

Why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should visit me?

и҆ ѿкѹ́дѹ мнѣ̀ сїѐ, да прїи́детъ мт҃и гд҇а моегѡ̀ ко мнѣ̀;

When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb jumped for joy.

се́ бо, ѩ҆́кѡ бы́сть гла́съ цѣлова́нїѧ твоегѡ̀ во ѹ҆́шїю моє́ю, взыгра́сѧ младе́нецъ ра́дощами во чре́вѣ мое́мъ.

You are blessed because you believed that the Lord would do what he said.”

И҆ бл҃же́нна вѣ́ровавшаѧ, ѩ҆́кѡ бѹ́детъ соверше́нїе глагѡ́ланнымъ є҆́й ѿ гд҇а.

Mary responded, “Oh, how my soul praises the Lord.

И҆ речѐ мр҃їа́мь: вели́читъ дш҃а̀ моѧ̀ гд҇а,

How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!

и҆ возра́довасѧ дх҃ъ мо́й ѡ҆ бз҃ѣ сп҃сѣ мое́мъ:

For he took notice of his lowly servant girl, and from now on all generations will call me blessed.

ѩ҆́кѡ призрѣ̀ на смире́нїе рабы̀ своеѧ̀: се́ бо, ѿнн҃ѣ ѹ҆блажа́тъ мѧ̀ всѝ ро́ди:

For the Mighty One is holy, and he has done great things for me.

ѩ҆́кѡ сотворѝ мнѣ̀ вели́чїе си́льный, и҆ ст҃о и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀:

He shows mercy from generation to generation to all who fear him.

и҆ мл҇ть є҆гѡ̀ въ ро́ды родѡ́въ боѧ́щымсѧ є҆гѡ̀:

His mighty arm has done tremendous things! He has scattered the proud and haughty ones.

сотворѝ держа́вѹ мы́шцею свое́ю: расточѝ гѡ́рдыѧ мы́слїю се́рдца и҆́хъ:

He has brought down princes from their thrones and exalted the humble.

низложѝ си҄льныѧ со престѡ́лъ, и҆ вознесѐ смирє́нныѧ:

He has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away with empty hands.

а҆́лчѹщыѧ и҆спо́лни бла҄гъ, и҆ богатѧ́щыѧсѧ ѿпѹстѝ тщы̀.

He has helped his servant Israel and remembered to be merciful.

Воспрїѧ́тъ ї҆и҃лѧ ѻ҆́трока своего̀, помѧнѹ́ти мл҇ти,

For he made this promise to our ancestors, to Abraham and his children forever.”

ѩ҆́коже глаго́ла ко ѻ҆тцє́мъ на́шымъ, а҆враа́мѹ и҆ сѣ́мени є҆гѡ̀ до вѣ́ка.

Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months and then went back to her own home.

Пребы́сть же мр҃їа́мь съ не́ю ѩ҆́кѡ трѝ мѣ́сѧцы и҆ возврати́сѧ въ до́мъ сво́й.

When it was time for Elizabeth’s baby to be born, she gave birth to a son.

Є҆лїсаве́ти же и҆спо́лнисѧ вре́мѧ роди́ти є҆́й, и҆ родѝ сы́на.

And when her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had been very merciful to her, everyone rejoiced with her.

И҆ слы́шаша ѡ҆́крестъ живѹ́щїи и҆ ѹ҆́жики є҆ѧ̀, ѩ҆́кѡ возвели́чилъ є҆́сть гд҇ь мл҇ть свою̀ съ не́ю: и҆ ра́довахѹсѧ съ не́ю.

When the baby was eight days old, they all came for the circumcision ceremony. They wanted to name him Zechariah, after his father.

И҆ бы́сть во ѻ҆смы́й де́нь, прїидо́ша ѡ҆брѣ́зати ѻ҆троча̀, и҆ нарица́хѹ є҆̀ и҆́менемъ ѻ҆тца̀ є҆гѡ̀, заха́рїю.

But Elizabeth said, “No! His name is John!”

И҆ ѿвѣща́вши ма́ти є҆гѡ̀ речѐ: нѝ, но да нарече́тсѧ ї҆ѡа́ннъ.

“What?” they exclaimed. “There is no one in all your family by that name.”

И҆ рѣ́ша къ не́й, ѩ҆́кѡ никто́же є҆́сть въ родствѣ̀ твое́мъ, и҆́же нарица́етсѧ и҆́менемъ тѣ́мъ.

So they used gestures to ask the baby’s father what he wanted to name him.

И҆ помава́хѹ ѻ҆тцѹ̀ є҆гѡ̀, є҆́же ка́кѡ бы хотѣ́лъ нарещѝ є҆̀.

He motioned for a writing tablet, and to everyone’s surprise he wrote, “His name is John.”

И҆ и҆спро́шь дщи́цѹ, написа̀, глаго́лѧ: ї҆ѡа́ннъ бѹ́детъ и҆́мѧ є҆мѹ̀. И҆ чѹдѧ́хѹсѧ всѝ.

Instantly Zechariah could speak again, and he began praising God.

Ѿверзо́шасѧ же ѹ҆ста̀ є҆гѡ̀ а҆́бїе и҆ ѧ҆зы́къ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ глаго́лаше, благословѧ̀ бг҃а.

Awe fell upon the whole neighborhood, and the news of what had happened spread throughout the Judean hills.

И҆ бы́сть на всѣ́хъ стра́хъ живѹ́щихъ ѡ҆́крестъ и҆́хъ: и҆ во все́й странѣ̀ ї҆ѹде́йстѣй повѣ́даеми бѧ́хѹ всѝ глаго́ли сі́и.

Everyone who heard about it reflected on these events and asked, “What will this child turn out to be?” For the hand of the Lord was surely upon him in a special way.

И҆ положи́ша всѝ слы́шавшїи въ се́рдцѣ свое́мъ, глаго́люще: что̀ ѹ҆́бѡ ѻ҆троча̀ сїѐ бѹ́детъ; И҆ рѹка̀ гд҇нѧ бѣ̀ съ ни́мъ.

Then his father, Zechariah, was filled with the Holy Spirit and gave this prophecy:

И҆ заха́рїа ѻ҆те́цъ є҆гѡ̀ и҆спо́лнисѧ дх҃а ст҃а, и҆ проро́чествова, глаго́лѧ:

“Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has visited and redeemed his people.

блг҇ве́нъ гд҇ь бг҃ъ ї҆и҃левъ, ѩ҆́кѡ посѣтѝ и҆ сотворѝ и҆збавле́нїе лю́демъ свои҄мъ:

He has sent us a mighty Saviorh from the royal line of his servant David,

и҆ воздви́же ро́гъ сп҇нїѧ на́мъ, въ домѹ̀ дв҃да ѻ҆́трока своегѡ̀:

just as he promised through his holy prophets long ago.

ѩ҆́коже глаго́ла ѹ҆сты̀ ст҃ы́хъ сѹ́щихъ ѿ вѣ́ка про҇рѡ́къ є҆гѡ̀,

Now we will be saved from our enemies and from all who hate us.

сп҇нїе ѿ вра҄гъ на́шихъ и҆ и҆з̾ рѹкѝ всѣ́хъ ненави́дѧщихъ на́съ:

He has been merciful to our ancestors by remembering his sacred covenant —

сотвори́ти мл҇ть со ѻ҆тцы҄ на́шими и҆ помѧнѹ́ти завѣ́тъ ст҃ы́й сво́й,

the covenant he swore with an oath to our ancestor Abraham.

клѧ́твѹ, є҆́юже клѧ́тсѧ ко а҆враа́мѹ ѻ҆тцѹ̀ на́шемѹ, да́ти на́мъ,

We have been rescued from our enemies so we can serve God without fear,

без̾ стра́ха, и҆з̾ рѹкѝ вра҄гъ на́шихъ и҆зба́вльшымсѧ,

in holiness and righteousness for as long as we live.

слѹжи́ти є҆мѹ̀ преподо́бїемъ и҆ пра́вдою пред̾ ни́мъ всѧ҄ дни҄ живота̀ на́шегѡ.

“And you, my little son, will be called the prophet of the Most High, because you will prepare the way for the Lord.

И҆ ты̀, ѻ҆троча̀, про҇ро́къ вы́шнѧгѡ нарече́шисѧ: пред̾и́деши бо пред̾ лице́мъ гд҇нимъ, ѹ҆гото́вати пѹти҄ є҆гѡ̀,

You will tell his people how to find salvation through forgiveness of their sins.

да́ти ра́зѹмъ сп҇нїѧ лю́демъ є҆гѡ̀, во ѡ҆ставле́нїе грѣ҄хъ и҆́хъ,

Because of God’s tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us,i

милосе́рдїѧ ра́ди мл҇ти бг҃а на́шегѡ, въ ни́хже посѣти́лъ є҆́сть на́съ восто́къ свы́ше,

to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide us to the path of peace.”

просвѣти́ти во тмѣ̀ и҆ сѣ́ни сме́ртнѣй сѣдѧ́щыѧ, напра́вити но́ги на́шѧ на пѹ́ть ми́ренъ.

John grew up and became strong in spirit. And he lived in the wilderness until he began his public ministry to Israel.

Ѻ҆троча́ же растѧ́ше и҆ крѣплѧ́шесѧ дѹ́хомъ: и҆ бѣ̀ въ пѹсты́нехъ до днѐ ѩ҆вле́нїѧ своегѡ̀ ко ї҆и҃лю.
