1-я Царств 4
1 И собрались Филистимляне воевать с Израильтянами. И было слово Самуила ко всему Израилю. И выступили Израильтяне против Филистимлян на войну и расположились станом при Авен-Езере, а Филистимляне расположились при Афеке.
Now at that time the Philistines came together to make war against Israel, and the men of Israel went out to war against the Philistines and took up their position at the side of Eben-ezer: and the Philistines put their forces in position in Aphek.
2 И выстроились Филистимляне против Израильтян, и произошла битва, и были поражены Израильтяне Филистимлянами, которые побили на поле сражения около четырех тысяч человек.
And the Philistines put their forces in order against Israel, and the fighting was hard, and Israel was overcome by the Philistines, who put to the sword about four thousand of their army in the field.
3 И пришел народ в стан; и сказали старейшины Израилевы: за что поразил нас Господь сегодня пред Филистимлянами? возьмем себе из Силома ковчег завета Господня, и он пойдет среди нас и спасет нас от руки врагов наших.
And when the people came back to their tents, the responsible men of Israel said, Why has the Lord let the Philistines overcome us today? Let us get the ark of the Lord's agreement here from Shiloh, so that it may be with us and give us salvation from the hands of those who are against us.
4 И послал народ в Силом, и принесли оттуда ковчег завета Господа Саваофа, седящего на херувимах; а при ковчеге завета Божия были и два сына Илиевы, Офни и Финеес.
So the people sent to Shiloh and got the ark of the agreement of the Lord of armies whose resting-place is between the winged ones; and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were there with the ark of God's agreement.
5 И когда прибыл ковчег завета Господня в стан, весь Израиль поднял такой сильный крик, что земля стонала.
And when the ark of the Lord's agreement came into the tent-circle, all Israel gave a great cry, so that the earth was sounding with it.
6 И услышали Филистимляне шум восклицаний и сказали: отчего такие громкие восклицания в стане Евреев? И узнали, что ковчег Господень прибыл в стан.
And the Philistines, hearing the noise of their cry, said, What is this great cry among the tents of the Hebrews? Then it became clear to them that the ark of the Lord had come to the tent-circle.
7 И устрашились Филистимляне, ибо сказали: Бог тот пришел к ним в стан. И сказали: горе нам! ибо не бывало подобного ни вчера, ни третьего дня;
And the Philistines, full of fear, said, God has come into their tents. And they said, Trouble is ours! for never before has such a thing been seen.
8 горе нам! кто избавит нас от руки этого сильного Бога? Это - тот Бог, Который поразил Египтян всякими казнями в пустыне;
Trouble is ours! Who will give us salvation from the hands of these great gods? These are the gods who sent all sorts of blows on the Egyptians in the waste land.
9 укрепитесь и будьте мужественны, Филистимляне, чтобы вам не быть в порабощении у Евреев, как они у вас в порабощении; будьте мужественны и сразитесь с ними.
Be strong, O Philistines, be men! Do not be servants to the Hebrews as they have been to you: go forward to the fight without fear.
10 И сразились Филистимляне, и поражены были Израильтяне, и каждый побежал в шатер свой, и было поражение весьма великое, и пало из Израильтян тридцать тысяч пеших.
So the Philistines went to the fight, and Israel was overcome, and every man went in flight to his tent: and great was the destruction, for thirty thousand footmen of Israel were put to the sword.
11 И ковчег Божий был взят, и два сына Илиевы, Офни и Финеес, умерли.
And the ark of God was taken; and Hophni and Phinehas, the sons of Eli, were put to the sword.
12 И побежал один Вениамитянин с места сражения и пришел в Силом в тот же день; одежда на нем была разодрана и прах на голове его.
And a man of Benjamin went running from the fight and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothing out of order and earth on his head.
13 Когда пришел он, Илий сидел на седалище при дороге у ворот и смотрел, ибо сердце его трепетало за ковчег Божий. И когда человек тот пришел и объявил в городе, то громко восстенал весь город.
And when he came, Eli was seated by the wayside watching: and in his heart was fear for the ark of God. And when the man came into the town and gave the news, there was a great outcry.
14 И услышал Илий звуки вопля и сказал: отчего такой шум? И тотчас подошел человек тот и объявил Илию.
And Eli, hearing the noise and the cries, said, What is the reason of this outcry? And the man came quickly and gave the news to Eli.
15 Илий был тогда девяноста восьми лет; и глаза его померкли, и он не мог видеть.
Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were fixed so that he was not able to see.
16 И сказал тот человек Илию: я пришел из стана, сегодня же бежал я с места сражения. И сказал Илий: что произошло, сын мой?
And the man said to Eli, I have come from the army and have come in flight today from the fight. And he said, How did it go, my son?
17 И отвечал вестник и сказал: побежал Израиль пред Филистимлянами, и поражение великое произошло в народе, и оба сына твои, Офни и Финеес, умерли, и ковчег Божий взят.
And the man said, Israel went in flight from the Philistines, and there has been great destruction among the people, and your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.
18 Когда упомянул он о ковчеге Божием, Илий упал с седалища навзничь у ворот, сломал себе хребет и умер; ибо он был стар и тяжел. Был же он судьею Израиля сорок лет.
And at these words about the ark of God, Eli, falling back off his seat by the side of the doorway into the town, came down on the earth so that his neck was broken and death overtook him, for he was an old man and of great weight. He had been judging Israel for forty years.
19 Невестка его, жена Финеесова, была беременна уже пред родами. И когда услышала она известие о взятии ковчега Божия и о смерти свекра своего и мужа своего, то упала на колени и родила, ибо приступили к ней боли ее.
And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child and near the time when she would give birth; and when she had the news that the ark of God had been taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, her pains came on her suddenly and she gave birth.
20 И когда умирала она, стоявшие при ней женщины говорили ей: не бойся, ты родила сына. Но она не отвечала и не обращала внимания.
And when she was very near death the women who were with her said, Have no fear, for you have given birth to a son. But she made no answer and gave no attention to it.
21 И назвала младенца: Ихавод, сказав: “отошла слава от Израиля” - со взятием ковчега Божия и со смертью свекра ее и мужа ее.
And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 Она сказала: отошла слава от Израиля, ибо взят ковчег Божий.
And she said, The glory is gone from Israel, for the ark of God has been taken.
