1 Samuel 21
1 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why [art] thou alone, and no man with thee?
И прииде Давид в Номву ко Авимелеху иерею: и ужасеся Авимелех о пришествии его и рече ему: что яко ты един, и никтоже с тобою?
2 And David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said unto me, Let no man know any thing of the business whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I have appointed [my] servants to such and such a place.
И рече Давид иерею: царь заповеда ми глагол днесь и рече ко мне: никтоже да уразумеет глагола, егоже ради аз посылаю тя и о немже аз заповедаю ти: и отроки оставих на месте глаголемем еммоним:
3 Now therefore what is under thine hand? give [me] five [loaves of] bread in mine hand, or what there is present.
и ныне аще суть у тебе пять хлебы, даждь ми елико имаши.
4 And the priest answered David, and said, [There is] no common bread under mine hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
И отвеща иерей Давиду и рече: не суть хлебы прости у мене, но точию хлебы у мене священнии: аще сохранени отроцы суть токмо от жены, снедят.
5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women [have been] kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and [the bread is] in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.
И отвеща Давид иерею и рече ему: и (мы) от жен воздержахомся вчера и третияго дне: отнележе изыдох аз на путь, быша вси отроцы очищени, и сей путь нечист, но освятится днесь сосуд ради моих.
6 So the priest gave him hallowed [bread: ] for there was no bread there but the shewbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.
И даде ему Авимелех иерей хлебы предложения, яко тамо не бе хлеба, но токмо хлебы лица, иже взяты от лица Господня, еже предложитися хлебу теплому, в оньже день взя их.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul [was] there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name [was] Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of the herdmen that [belonged] to Saul.
И бе тамо един от отрок Сауловых в день он удержан пред Господем, и имя ему Доик Сирин, (старейшина от пастырь Сауловых, ) пасый мски Сауловы.
8 And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king’s business required haste.
И рече Давид ко Авимелеху: виждь, аще есть зде у тебе копие или мечь, яко меча моего и оружия моего не взях с собою, яко царево повеление внезапу ми бысть.
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it [is here] wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take [it: ] for [there is] no other save that here. And David said, [There is] none like that; give it me.
И рече иерей: се, мечь Голиафа иноплеменника, егоже ты убил еси во юдоли Ила, и той обвит бяше в ризу за ефудом: аще той хощеши взяти, возми себе, несть бо инаго зде кроме сего. И рече Давид: се, несть якоже той: даждь ми его. И даде его ему.
10 And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
И воста Давид, и убеже в той день от лица Саулова, и прииде Давид ко Анхусу царю Гефску.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, [Is] not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
И реша отроцы Анхусовы к нему: не сей ли Давид царь земли? Не сему ли изыдоша (жены) ликующыя, глаголющя: победи Саул с тысящами своими, и Давид со тмами своими?
12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
И положи Давид глаголы сия в сердцы своем, и убояся зело от лица Анхуса царя Гефска.
13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.
И измени лице свое пред ним, и притворися в день той, и бияше во врата града, яко в тимпан, и падаше на руки своя, и паде у врат града, и слины своя точаше по браде своей.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad: wherefore [then] have ye brought him to me?
И рече Анхус ко отроком своим: се, видесте мужа неистова, почто его введосте ко мне?
15 Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this [fellow] to play the mad man in my presence? shall this [fellow] come into my house?
Еда не имею аз неистовых, яко введосте его, да беснуется предо мною? Сей да не внидет в дом мой.
