2 Samuel 17
1 Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night:
И рече Ахитофел ко Авессалому: изберу ныне себе дванадесять тысящ мужей и востану, и пожену вслед Давида нощию,
2 And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:
и найду на него, и той утружден и ослаблен руками, и устрашу его, и побежат вси людие иже с ним, и убию царя единаго:
3 And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest is as if all returned: so all the people shall be in peace.
и возвращу вся люди к тебе, имже образом обращается невеста к мужеви своему: ты бо токмо души единаго мужа ищеши, всем же людем будет мир.
4 And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
И угодно слово бысть пред очима Авессаломлима и пред очима всех старейшин Израилевых.
5 Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.
И рече Авессалом: призовите же и Хусиа Арахиина, и услышим что из уст его.
6 And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do after his saying? if not; speak thou.
И вниде Хусий ко Авессалому, и рече Авессалом к нему, глаголя: по глаголу сему глагола Ахитофел: сотворим ли по словеси его? Аще же ни, ты глаголи.
7 And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time.
И рече Хусий ко Авессалому: не благ совет сей, егоже совеща Ахитофел единою сие.
8 For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they be mighty men, and they be chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
И рече Хусий: ты веси отца твоего и мужей его, яко сильни суть зело, и гневливи душами своими, яко медведица чад лишеная на селе, и аки вепрь свирепый на поли: и отец твой муж борец, и не даст почити людем:
9 Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some other place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom.
се бо, той ныне скрыся на некоторем холме или на некоторем месте: и будет внегда напасти на них в начале, и услышит слушаяй, и речет: бысть сокрушение в людех иже за Авессаломом:
10 And he also that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall utterly melt: for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they which be with him are valiant men.
и той сын силы, емуже сердце якоже сердце льву таящо истает: понеже весть весь Израиль, яко силен отец твой, и сынове силы вси иже с ним:
11 Therefore I counsel that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beer–sheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person.
тако советуя аз усоветовах, и собираяся соберется к тебе весь Израиль от Дана и до Вирсавии, аки песок иже при мори во множестве, и лице твое идущее посреде их:
12 So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground: and of him and of all the men that are with him there shall not be left so much as one.
и приидем к нему на едино место, идеже обрящем его тамо, и ополчимся на него, якоже спадает роса на землю, и не оставим в нем и в мужех его иже с ним ни единаго:
13 Moreover, if he be gotten into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there be not one small stone found there.
и аще во град соберутся, и возмет весь Израиль ко граду тому ужы, и совлечем его в поток, дондеже не останется тамо ниже камень.
14 And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. for Yhwh had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that Yhwh might bring evil upon Absalom.
И рече Авессалом и вси мужие Израилтестии: благ совет Хусиа Арахиина паче совета Ахитофелева. И Господь заповеда разорити совет Ахитофелев благий, яко да наведет Господь на Авессалома злая вся.
15 Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.
И рече Хусий арахиин ко Садоку и Авиафару иереем: тако и тако советова Ахитофел Авессалому и старейшинам Израилевым: и аз тако и тако советовах:
16 Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that are with him.
и ныне послите скоро и возвестите Давиду, глаголюще: не пребуди нощь сию во Аравофе пустыни, но пойти потщися, да не како пожерт будет царь и вси людие иже с ним.
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by En–rogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.
И Ионафан и Ахимаас стояста на студенце Рогили, и иде рабыня и поведа има: и тии идоста и возвестиста Давиду царю, яко не могоста явитися еже внити во град.
18 Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.
И виде их отрочищь и поведа Авессалому. И идоста оба скоро и приидоста в дом мужа в Ваурим: и тому ров на дворе, и снидоста тамо.
19 And the woman took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth, and spread ground wheat thereon; and the thing was not known.
И взя жена, и положи покров на устии рова, и суши на нем арафоф, и не познася глагол.
20 And when Absalom’s servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
И приидоша отроцы Авессаломли к жене в дом и реша: где Ахимаас и Ионафан? И рече им жена: преидоста вмале воду. И искаша, и не обретоша, и возвратишася во Иерусалим.
21 And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.
Бысть же по отшествии их, и излезоста из рова, и идоста, и возвестиста Давиду царю и глаголаста ему: востаните, и прейдите скоро воду, яко сице совеща на вы Ахитофел.
22 Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over Jordan: by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over Jordan.
И воста Давид и вси людие иже с ним и преидоша Иордан до света заутра, и ни един не оста, иже бы не прешел Иордана.
23 And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
И Ахитофел виде, яко не сбыстся совет его, и оседла осля свое, и воста, и отиде в дом свой, во град свой: и заповеда дому своему, и удавися, и умре, и погребен бысть во гробе отца своего.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
И Давид прейде в Манаим, Авессалом же прейде Иордан сам и вси мужие Израилтестии с ним.
25 And Absalom made Amasa captain of the army instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man’s son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab’s mother.
И Амессая постави Авессалом вместо Иоава над силою: Амессай же сын мужа, емуже имя Иефер Иезраилитин, сей вниде ко Авигеи дщери Иессеине, сестре Саруии матере Иоавли.
26 So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
И ополчися Авессалом и весь Израиль в земли Галаадстей.
27 And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo–debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
И бысть егда вниде Давид в Манаим, и Уесвий сын Наасов от Раввафа сынов Аммоних, и Махир сын Амииль иже из Лодавара, и Верзеллий Галаадитин из Рогеллима,
28 Brought beds, and basons, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and parched grain, and beans, and lentiles, and parched pulse,
принесоша десять постель устроеных и конобов десять и сосуды скуделны и пшеницу и ячмень и муку и пшено и боб и сочевицу
29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat: for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.
и мед и масло и овцы и сыры кравия, и принесоша Давиду и людем иже с ним ясти: быша бо людие гладни и утруждени и жаждни в пустыни.
