2 Samuel 11
1 And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth [to battle], that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.
И бысть по возвращении лета, во время исхождения царей (на брань), и посла Давид Иоава и отроки своя с ним, и всего Израиля: и расточиша сыны Аммони и обседоша окрест Раввафа, и Давид седе во Иерусалиме.
2 And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman [was] very beautiful to look upon.
И бысть при вечере, и воста Давид от ложа своего, и хождаше на крове дому царскаго, и увиде жену с крова мыющуюся: жена же взором добра велми:
3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And [one] said, [Is] not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
и посла Давид, и взыска жену, и рече: не сия ли Вирсавиа дщерь Елиавля, жена Урии Хеттеанина?
4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.
И посла Давид слуги, и взя ю, и вниде к ней, и преспа с нею: и та бе очистилася от нечистоты своея, и возвратися в дом свой.
5 And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I [am] with child.
И зачат жена во чреве: и пославши возвести Давиду и рече: се, аз есмь во чреве имущая.
6 And David sent to Joab, [saying], Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
И посла Давид ко Иоаву, глаголя: посли ко мне Урию Хеттеанина. И посла Иоав Урию к Давиду.
7 And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded [of him] how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered.
И прииде Уриа и вниде к нему, и вопроси его Давид о мире Иоава и о мире людий и о мире брани.
8 And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and there followed him a mess [of meat] from the king.
И рече Давид ко Урии: иди в дом твой, и умый нозе твои. И изыде Уриа из дому царева, и иде вслед его снедь царева.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
И спа Уриа пред враты дому царева с рабы господина своего, а не иде в дом свой.
10 And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from [thy] journey? why [then] didst thou not go down unto thine house?
И возвестиша Давиду, глаголюще: яко не ходи Уриа в дом свой. И рече Давид ко Урии: не с пути ли пришел еси? Почто не вшел еси в дом твой?
11 And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? [as] thou livest, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
И рече Уриа к Давиду: кивот Божий и Израиль и Иуда пребывают в кущах, и господин мой Иоав и раби господина моего на лицы сел пребывают, аз же вниду ли в дом мой ясти и пити и спати с женою моею? Како? Жива душа твоя, аще сотворю глагол сей.
12 And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
И рече Давид ко Урии: поседи зде и днесь, и заутра отпущу тя. И пребысть Уриа во Иерусалиме в той день и во утрешний.
13 And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.
И призва его Давид, и яде пред ним и пияше, и упои его, и отиде в вечер спати на ложе свое с рабы господина своего, в дом же свой не иде.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent [it] by the hand of Uriah.
И бысть утро, и написа Давид писание ко Иоаву, и посла рукою Урииною.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
И написа в писании, глаголя: введи Урию противу брани крепкия и возвратитеся вспять от него, да язвен будет и умрет.
16 And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men [were].
И бысть егда стрежаше Иоав у града, и постави Урию на месте, идеже ведяше, яко мужие сильни тамо.
17 And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell [some] of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.
И изыдоша мужие из града и бияхуся со Иоавом: и падоша от людий от рабов Давидовых, умре же и Уриа Хеттеанин.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
И посла Иоав, и возвести Давиду вся словеса, яже о брани, глаголати к царю.
19 And charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling the matters of the war unto the king,
И заповеда (Иоав) послу, глаголя: егда скончаеши вся речи, яже от брани, к царю глаголати,
20 And if so be that the king’s wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh unto the city when ye did fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
и будет аще разгневается царь и речет ти: почто приближистеся ко граду на брань? Не ведасте ли, яко стреляти будут с стены?
21 Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why went ye nigh the wall? then say thou, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
Кто уби Авимелеха сына Иеровааля сына Нирова? Не жена ли верже нань уломком жернова с стены, (и урази его, ) и умре в Фамасе? Почто приступасте к стене? И речеши: и раб твой Уриа Хеттеанин (убиен бысть, и) умре.
22 So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.
И иде посол Иоавль к царю во Иерусалим, и прииде, и возвести Давиду вся, елика глагола ему Иоав, вся глаголы брани. И разгневася Давид на Иоава и рече к послу: почто приближистеся ко граду битися? Не ведасте ли, яко язвени будете со стены? Кто уби Авимелеха сына Иеровааля? Не жена ли верже нань уломок жернова со стены, и умре в Фамасе? Почто приближистеся к стене?
23 And the messenger said unto David, Surely the men prevailed against us, and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.
И рече посол к Давиду: яко укрепишася на ны мужие и изыдоша на ны на село, и гонихом я до врат града:
24 And the shooters shot from off the wall upon thy servants; and [some] of the king’s servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
и стреляша стрелцы со стены на рабы твоя, и умроша от отрок царских, и раб твой Уриа Хеттеанин умре.
25 Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.
И рече Давид к послу: сице да речеши ко Иоаву: да не будет зло пред очима твоима слово сие, яко овогда убо сице, овогда же инако поядает мечь: укрепи брань твою на град, и раскопай и: и укрепи его.
26 And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.
И услыша жена Уриина, яко умре Уриа муж ея, и рыдаше по мужи своем.
27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
И прейде плачь, и посла Давид, и введе ю в дом свой, и бысть ему жена, и роди ему сына. И зол явися глагол, егоже сотвори Давид, пред очима Господнима.
