Первая книга Царств 1

1 И бысть человек от Армафем Сифы, от горы Ефремли, и имя ему Елкана сын Иеремииль, сына Илиина, сына Фокеля в Насиве от Армафема от горы Ефремли:

Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim, of the hill country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:

2 и сему две жены (быша): имя единей Анна и имя вторей Феннана: и бяху Феннане дети, Анне же не бяше отрочате.

and he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

3 И восхождаше человек от дне до дне из града своего Армафема покланятися и жрети Господу Богу Саваофу в Силом. И тамо бе Илий и два сына его Офни и Финеес, жерцы Господни.

And this man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests unto the LORD, were there.

4 И бысть день, и пожре Елкана и даде Феннане жене своей и сыном ея и дщерем ея части:

And when the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters portions:

5 Анне же даде часть едину, яко не бе ей чада, обаче Анну любляше Елкана паче Феннаны. И Господь затвори ложесна ея:

but unto Hannah he gave a double portion: for he loved Hannah, but the LORD had shut up her womb.

6 занеже не даде ей Господь чада по скорби ея и по сетованию оскорбления ея, и сетоваше сего ради, яко затвори Господь утробу ея не дати ей чада.

And her rival provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the LORD had shut up her womb.

7 Тако творяше от года до года, внегда приходити ей в дом Господень: (укоряше ея тако, ) и сетоваше, и плакаше, и не ядяше.

And [as] he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.

8 И рече ей Елкана муж ея: Анна. И рече ему: се, аз, господи. И рече ей: что ти есть, яко плачешися? И почто не яси? И почто биеши сердце твое? Несмь ли аз тебе добрее паче десяти чад?

And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?

9 И воставши Анна по ядении их в Силоме, и ста пред Господем. Илий же жрец седяше на престоле, при празе двери храма Господня.

So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon his seat by the door post of the temple of the LORD.

10 И та умиленна душею, и помолися Господу и плачущи проплака,

And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.

11 и обеща обет Господу, глаголющи: Адонаи Господи Елои Саваоф, аще призирая призриши на смирение рабы Твоея и помянеши мя, и даси рабе Твоей семя мужеско, то дам е пред Тобою в дар до дне смерти его: и вина и пиянственнаго не испиет, и железо не взыдет на главу его.

And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.

12 И бысть егда умножи молящися пред Господем, Илий же жрец смотряше на уста ея.

And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth.

13 И та глаголаше в сердцы своем, токмо устне ея двизастеся, а глас ея не слышашеся: и мняше ю Илий пияну сущу.

Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.

14 И рече ей Илий: доколе пияна будеши? Отими вино твое и иди от места Господня.

And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.

15 И отвеща Анна и рече: ни, господи: жена в жесток день аз есмь, вина и пиянства не пих, но изливаю пред Господем душу мою:

And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before the LORD.

16 не даждь рабы твоея во дщерь погибели, яко от множества глумления моего и от множества сетования моего истаях даже доселе.

Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and my provocation have I spoken hitherto.

17 И отвеща Илий и рече к ней: иди с миром, Бог Израилев да даст ти все прошение твое, еже просила еси от Него.

Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thy petition that thou hast asked of him.

18 И рече Анна: обрете раба твоя благодать пред очима твоима. И иде жена в путь свой, и вниде во обитель свою, и яде с мужем своим и пи, и лице ея не испаде ктому.

And she said, Let thy servant find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more [sad].

19 И утреневаша заутра, и поклонишася Господу, и идоша путем своим. И вниде Елкана в дом свой во Армафем и позна Елкана жену свою Анну: и помяне ю Господь, и зачат.

And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.

20 И бысть во время дний, и роди Анна сына и нарече имя ему Самуил: и рече: яко от Господа Бога Саваофа испросих его.

And it came to pass, when the time was come about, that Hannah conceived, and bare a son; and she called his name Samuel, [saying], Because I have asked him of the LORD.

21 И взыде человек Елкана и весь дом его в Силом пожрети жертву дний и обеты своя и вся десятины земли своея.

And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.

22 Анна же не взыде с ним, яко рече мужеви своему: дондеже взыдет отроча, и аще отдою е, тогда явится лицу Господню и пребудет тамо до века.

But Hannah went not up; for she said unto her husband, [I will not go up] until the child be weaned, and then I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and there abide for ever.

23 И рече ей Елкана муж ея: твори благое пред очима твоима, седи дондеже отдоиши е: но да утвердит Господь (слово твое), изшедшее из уст твоих. И седе жена, и млеком питаше сына своего, дондеже отдои его.

And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seemeth thee good; tarry until thou have weaned him; only the LORD establish his word. So the woman tarried and gave her son suck, until she weaned him.

24 И взыде с ним в Силом, егда отдои его, с телцем трилетным и с хлебы и со ефи муки пшеничны и мехом вина: и внидоша в дом Господень в Силом, и отроча с ними.

And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of meal, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh: and the child was young.

25 И приведоша е пред Господа: и закла отец его жертву, юже творяше от дний на дни Господеви: и приведоша отроча, и закла телца. И приведе Анна мати отроча ко Илию

And they slew the bullock, and brought the child to Eli.

26 и рече: во мне, господи, да живет душа твоя, господине мой, аз жена стоявшая пред тобою, о сем помолитися Господу:

And she said, Oh my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto the LORD.

27 о отрочати сем молихся, и даде ми Господь прошение мое, еже просих у Него:

For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him:

28 и аз отдаю е Господеви во вся дни живота его на служение Господеви. И поклонися тамо Господеви.

wherefore I also have granted him to the LORD; as long as he liveth he is granted to the LORD. And he worshipped the LORD there.
