Hank Williams - From Jerusalem to Jericho - translation of the lyrics into Russian

Lyrics and translation Hank Williams - From Jerusalem to Jericho




From Jerusalem to Jericho, along that lonely road,
От Иерусалима до Иерихона по пустынной дороге.
A certain man was set upon and robbed of all his gold.
На одного человека напали и ограбили все его золото.
They beat him and they stripped him, and they left him there for dead.
Они избили его, раздели и бросили умирать.
Who was it then that come along and bathed the aching head?
Кто же тогда приходил и омывал больную голову?
Then who (then who), tell me who (tell me who),
Тогда кто (тогда кто), скажи мне, кто (скажи мне, кто),
Tell me who was this neighbor kind and true?
Скажи мне, кто был этот сосед, Добрый и искренний?
From Jerusalem to Jericho we′re traveling every day,
От Иерусалима до Иерихона мы путешествуем каждый день,
And many are the fallen ones that lie along the way.
И многие падшие лежат на пути.
From Jerusalem to Jericho, a certain priest come by,
Из Иерусалима в Иерихон пришел некий священник.
He heard the poor man crying, but he heeded not the cry.
Он слышал плач бедняги, но не обращал на него внимания.
He gathered his robes about him and he quickly passed away.
Он собрал свои одежды и быстро ушел.
Who was it then that come along and ministered that day?
Кто же тогда пришел и служил в тот день?
From Jerusalem to Jericho, a Levite came along,
Из Иерусалима в Иерихон пришел Левит.
He heard the poor man crying, that lie upon the ground.
Он слышал плач бедняги, лежащего на земле.
He lifted his hands up to the heavens and he quickly passed him by.
Он воздел руки к небесам и быстро прошел мимо.
Who was it then that came along and heeded that needy cry?
Кто же тогда пришел и услышал этот отчаянный крик?
From Jerusalem to Jericho, when life was ebbing away,
От Иерусалима до Иерихона, когда жизнь угасала,
Along come that Samaritan who was despised, they say.
Говорят, Пришел тот самаритянин, которого презирали.
He ministered to the dying man, he carried him to an inn.
Он помог умирающему, он отнес его на постоялый двор.
He paid his fare and told the host to take good care of him.
Он заплатил за проезд и попросил хозяина позаботиться о нем.
From Jerusalem to Jericho, a-traveling every day,
Из Иерусалима в Иерихон, путешествуя каждый день,
And many are the fallen ones that lie along the way.
И многие падшие лежат на пути.
Oh, some despised and some rejected,
О, кого-то презирают, а кого-то отвергают,
But it's no matter how they′ve been,
Но неважно, какими они были.
When everybody turns you down, then Jesus takes you in.
Когда все отвергают тебя, тогда Иисус принимает тебя.
