Третья книга Царств 20
1 И сын Адеров царь Сирский собра всю силу свою, и возшед обседе Самарию, и с ним тридесять два царя и вси конницы и колесницы: и взыдоша, и обседоша Самарию, и ратоваша на ню:
And Nabuthai the Jezraelite had a vineyard, near the threshingfloor of Achaab king of Samaria.
2 и посла ко Ахааву царю Израилеву во град и рече к нему: сице глаголет сын Адеров:
And Achaab spoke to Nabuthai, saying, Give me thy vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs, for it [is] near my house: and I will give thee another vineyard better than it; or if it please thee, I will give thee money, the price of this thy vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs.
3 сребро твое и злато твое мое есть, и жены твоя и чада твоя добрая моя суть.
And Nabuthai said to Achaab, My God forbid me that I should give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
4 И отвеща царь Израилев и рече: якоже глаголал еси, господи мой царю, твой есмь аз и вся моя.
And the spirit of Achaab was troubled, and he lay down upon his bed, and covered his face, and ate no bread.
5 И возвратишася послы и реша: сице глаголет сын Адеров: аз посылах к тебе, глаголя: сребро и злато твое и жены твоя и чада твоя даждь мне:
And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and spoke to him, [saying], Why [is] thy spirit troubled, and [why] dost thou eat no bread?
6 яко в сей час утро послю рабы моя к тебе, и изыщут дом твой и домы отрок твоих, и будут вся желаемая очес их, на нихже аще возложат руки своя, и возмут.
And he said to her, Because I spoke to Nabuthai the Jezraelite, saying, Give me thy vineyard for money; or if thou wilt, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
7 И призва царь Израилев вся старейшины земли и рече: знайте ныне и видите, яко той зле просит, яко присла ко мне (глаголя) о женах моих и о сынех моих и о дщерех моих: сребра моего и злата моего не возбраних ему.
And Jezabel his wife said to him, Dost thou now thus act the king over Israel? arise, and eat bread, and be thine own [master], and I will give thee the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
8 И реша ему старейшины и вси людие: не послушай, ни восхощи (дати).
And she wrote a letter in the name of Achaab, and sealed it with his seal, and sent the letter to the elders, and to the freemen who dwelt with Nabuthai.
9 И рече послом сына Адерова: рцыте господину вашему: вся, ихже ради посылал еси к рабу твоему прежде, сотворю, сего же глагола не могу сотворити. И отидоша мужие (адеровы) и возвестиша ему слово.
And it was written in the letters, saying, Keep a fast, and set Naboth in a chief place among the people.
10 И паки посла к нему сын Адеров, глаголя: сия да сотворят ми бози и сия да приложат, аще доволна будет персть Самарии горстем всех людий пешцев моих.
And set two men, sons of transgressors, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, He blessed God and the king: and let them lead him forth, and stone him, and let them die.
11 И отвеща царь Израилев и рече: доволно: да не хвалится слячен, якоже прямый.
And the men of his city, the elders, and the nobles who dwelt in his city, did as Jezabel sent to them, and as it had been written in the letters which she sent to them.
12 И бысть егда отвеща ему слово сие, бе пиющь сам и вси царие, иже бяху с ним в кущах: и рече отроком своим: сотворите вал. И Сотвориша вал над градом.
And they proclaimed a fast, and set Nebuthai in a chief place among the people.
13 И се, пророк един прииде к Ахааву царю Израилеву и рече: сия глаголет Господь: видиши ли весь народ сей великий? Се, Аз дам его днесь в руце твои, и уразумееши, яко Аз (есмь) Господь.
And two men, sons of transgressors, came in, and sat opposite him, and bore witness against him, saying, Thou hast blessed God and the king. And they led him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, and he died.
14 И рече Ахаав: в чем? И рече: сице глаголет Господь: во отроцех князей градских. И рече Ахаав: кто начнет брань? И рече: ты.
And they sent to Jezabel, saying, Nabuthai is stoned, and is dead.
15 И сочте Ахаав отроки князей градских, и бысть их двести тридесять и два: и по сих сочте люди вся сыны силы, седмь тысящ.
And it came to pass, when Jezabel heard [it], that she said to Achaab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, who would not sell it to thee: for Nebuthai is not alive, for he is dead.
16 И изыде в полудне: и сын Адеров пиян бе зело в Сокхофе сам и царие (иже с ним), тридесять два царя помощника ему.
And it came to pass, when Achaab heard that Nabuthai the Jezraelite was dead, that he rent his garments, and put on sackcloth. And it came to pass afterward, that Achaab arose and went down to the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, to take possession of it.
17 И изыдоша отроцы воевод градских в первых. И посла сын Адеров, и возвестиша царю сирскому, глаголюще: мужие изыдоша из Самарии.
And the Lord spoke to Eliu the Thesbite, saying,
18 И рече им: аще на мир изыдоша, поимите их живых: и аще на брань изыдоша, живых поимите их, да не исходят из града.
Arise, and go down to meet Achaab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, for he [is] in the vineyard of Nabuthai, for he has gone down thither to take possession of it.
19 И тии изыдоша из града отроцы воевод градских, и сила вслед их.
And thou shalt speak to him, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast slain and taken possession, therefore thus saith the Lord, In every place where the swine and the dogs have licked the blood of Nabuthai, there shall the dogs lick thy blood; and the harlots shall wash themselves in thy blood.
20 И порази кийждо противнаго себе, и удвои кийждо противнаго себе. И бежа Сириа: и погна их Израиль, и гонзе токмо сын Адеров царь Сирский на кони конника.
And Achaab said to Eliu, Hast thou found me, mine enemy? and he said, I have found [thee]: because thou hast wickedly sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger;
21 И изыде царь Израилев, и взя вся кони и колесницы, и порази язвою великою в Сирии.
behold, I bring evil upon thee: and I will kindle a fire after thee, and I will utterly destroy every male of Achaab, and him that is shut up and him that is left in Israel.
22 И прииде пророк к царю Израилеву и рече: укрепися и разумей, и виждь, что сотвориши, яко преходящу лету сему, сын Адеров, царь Сирийский, приидет на тя.
And I will make thy house as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa son of Achia, because of the provocations wherewith thou hast provoked [me], and caused Israel to sin.
23 И отроцы царя Сирийска реша ему: Бог гор Бог Израилев, а не Бог юдолий, сего ради укрепися паче нас: аще же сразимся с ними на равнине, истинно укрепимся паче их:
And the Lord spoke of Jezabel, saying, The dogs shall devour her within the fortification of Jezrael.
24 по глаголу же сему сотвори: распусти цари коегождо на место свое, и постави вместо их воеводы,
Him that is dead of Achaab in the city shall the dogs eat, and him that is dead of him in the field shall the birds of the sky eat.
25 и пременим тебе силу вместо силы падшия у тебе, и кони вместо коней, и колесницы вместо колесниц, и сразимся с ними на равнине, и укрепимся паче их. И послуша гласа их и сотвори тако.
But Achaab [did] wickedly, in that he sold himself to do that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his wife Jezabel led him astray.
26 И бысть минувшу лету тому, и сочте сын Адеров Сирию, и взыде во Афеку на брань на Израиля.
And he did very abominably in following after the abominations, according to all that the Amorite did, whom the Lord utterly destroyed from before the children of Israel.
27 И сынове Израилевы сочислишася и изыдоша во сретение им. И ополчишася Израилтяне противу им, аки два стада коз: Сириане же наполниша землю.
And because of the word, Achaab was pierced with sorrow before the Lord, and he both went weeping, and rent his garment, and girt sackcloth upon his body, and fasted; he put on sackcloth also in the day that he smote Nabuthai the Jezraelite, and went his way.
28 И прииде человек Божий и рече к царю Израилеву: сице глаголет Господь: понеже рече Сириа: Бог гор Господь Бог Израилев, и не Бог юдолий той, и дам силу великую сию в руку твою, и уразумееши, яко Аз Господь.
And the word of the Lord came by the hand of his servant Eliu concerning Achaab, and the Lord said,
29 И ополчишася тии противу им седмь дний. И бысть в день седмый, и приближися брань, и порази Израиль Сириан, сто и двадесять тысящ пешцев во един день.
Hast thou seen how Achaab has been pricked [to the heart] before me? I will not bring on the evil in his days, but in his son's days will I bring on the evil.
30 И бежаша оставшиися во Афеку град, и паде стена на двадесять седмь тысящ мужей оставшихся: сын же Адеров бежа и вниде в дом ложа, в чертог.
And the son of Ader gathered all his forces, and went up and besieged Samaria, [he] and thirty-two kings with him, and all [his] horse and chariots: and they went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
31 И реша к нему отроцы его: се, ныне вемы, яко царие дому Израилева милостиви суть: да возложим ныне вретища на чресла наша и ужа на выи нашя, и изыдем ко царю Израилеву, да негли оживит душы нашя.
And he sent into the city to Achaab king of Israel, and said to him, Thus says the son of Ader,
32 И препоясашася во вретища по чреслом своим, и возложиша ужя на выи своя, и приидоша к царю Израилеву и реша: раб твой сын Адеров глаголет: да живет душа моя. И рече: аще есть еще жив, брат ми есть.
Thy silver and thy gold are mine, and thy wives and thy children are mine.
33 И мужие за знак и в залог прияша слово от уст его, и реша: брат твой сын Адеров. И рече: идите и приведите его. И изыде к нему сын Адеров. И возведоша его к нему на колесницу.
And the king of Israel answered and said, As thou hast said, my lord, O king, I am thine, and all mine [also].
34 И рече к нему: грады, яже взя отец мой от отца твоего, отдам тебе: и на исход сотвориши я себе в Дамасце, якоже положи отец мой в Самарии, и аз в завете пущу тя. И положи ему завет и отпусти его.
And the messengers came again, and said, Thus says the son of Ader, I sent to thee, saying, Thou shalt give me thy silver and thy gold, and thy wives and thy children.
35 И человек един от сынов пророчих рече ко ближнему своему по словеси Господню: бий мя ныне. И не восхоте человек бити его.
For at this time to-morrow I will send my servants to thee, and they shall search thy house, and the houses of thy servants, and it shall be that all the desirable objects of their eyes on which they shall lay their hands, they shall even take [them].
36 И рече к нему: понеже не послушал еси гласа Господня, се, ты отидеши от мене, и поразит тя лев. И отиде от него, и обрете его лев и порази его.
And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Take notice now and consider, that this man seeks mischief: for he has sent to me concerning my wives, and concerning my sons, an concerning my daughters: I have not kept back from him my silver and my gold.
37 И обрете человека инаго и рече: бий мя ныне. И би его человек, и поразив сокруши его.
And the elders and all the people said to him, Hearken not, and consent not.
38 И иде пророк и предста царю Израилеву на пути и покры покрывалом очи свои.
And he said to the messengers of the son of Ader, Say to your master, All things that thou hast sent to thy servant about at first I will do; but this thing I shall not be able to do. And the men departed, and carried back the answer to him.
39 И бысть егда мимоидяше царь, и сей возопи ко царю и рече: раб твой изыде на войну брани, и се, муж приведе ко мне мужа и рече ко мне: сохрани мужа сего: аще же отрешився отскочит, и будет душа твоя вместо души его, или талант отдаси сребра:
And the son of Ader sent to him, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for foxes to all the people, even my infantry.
40 и бысть яко озреся раб твой семо и овамо, и сего не бысть. И рече к нему царь Израилев: се, суд твой при мне, сам себе убил еси.
And the king of Israel answered and said, Let it be sufficient; let not the humpbacked boast as he that is upright.
41 И ускори и отя покрывало от очес своих. И позна его царь Израилев, яко от пророк сей есть.
And it came to pass when he returned him this answer, he and all the kings with him were drinking in tents: and he said to his servants, Form a trench. And they made a trench against the city.
42 И рече к нему: тако глаголет Господь: понеже испустил еси ты мужа пагубнаго из руки твоея, и будет душа твоя вместо души его, и людие твои вместо людий его.
And, behold, a prophet came to Achaab king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Hast thou seen this great multitude? behold, I give it this day into thine hands; and thou shalt know that I [am] the Lord.
43 И отиде царь Израилев к дому своему смущен и разслаблен, и прииде в Самарию.
And Achaab said, Whereby? And he said, Thus saith the Lord, by the young men of the heads of the districts. And Achaab said, Who shall begin the battle? and he said, Thou.
