Вторая книга Паралипоменон 10
1 И прииде Ровоам в Сихем, зане в Сихем весь Израиль снидеся поставити его царем.
And Roboam came to Sychem: for all Israel came to Sychem to make him king.
2 И бысть егда услыша Иеровоам сын Наватов, иже бе во Египте, яко убеже от лица Соломона царя, и обита Иеровоам во Египте, и возвратися Иеровоам от Египта.
And it came to pass when Jeroboam the son of Nabat heard [it], (now he was in Egypt, forasmuch as he had fled thither from the face of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt, ) that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 И послаша и призваша его. И прииде Иеровоам и все собрание Израилево ко царю Ровоаму, глаголюще:
And they sent and called him: and Jeroboam and all the congregation came to Roboam, saying,
4 отец твой ожесточи иго наше, ты же ныне ослаби от работы отца твоего жестокия и от ига его тяжкаго, еже возложи на нас, и послужим тебе.
Thy father made our yoke grievous: now then abate [somewhat] of thy father's grievous rule, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
5 И рече им: поидите даже до триех дний и приидите ко мне. И отидоша людие.
And he said to them, Go away for three days, and [then] come to me. So the people departed.
6 И собра царь Ровоам старейшины, иже стояху пред Соломон отцем его, егда еще живяше, глаголя: каков вы даете совет отвещати людем сим?
And king Roboam assembled the elders that stood before his father Solomon in his life-time, saying, How do ye counsel [me] to return an answer to this people?
7 И реша ему: аще днесь будеши во благое людем сим, и благоугодиши, и речеши им словеса благая, то послужат тебе во вся дни.
And they spoke to him, saying, If thou wouldest this day befriend this people, and be kind to them, and speak to them good words, then will they be thy servants for ever.
8 И остави совет старейшин, егоже совещаша ему: и советоваше со юношами, иже с ним воспитани бяху и стояху пред ним,
But he forsook the advice of the old men, who took counsel with him, and he took counsel with the young men who had been brought up with him, who stood before him.
9 и рече к ним: что вы собетуете, да отвещаю людем сим, иже реша мне, глаголюще: облегчи иго, еже наложи на ны отец твой?
And he said to them, What do ye advise that I should answer this people, who spoke to me, saying, Ease [somewhat] of the yoke which thy father laid upon us?
10 И отвещаша ему отроцы воспитаннии с ним, глаголюще: тако речеши людем, ихже рекоша тебе, глаголюще: отец твой отягчи иго наше, ты же облегчи нам: тако отвещай к ним: менший перст мой толстее есть чресл отца моего:
And the young men that had been brought up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak to the people that spoke to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, and do thou lighten [somewhat of it] from us; thus shalt thou say, My little finger [shall be] thicker than my father's loins.
11 отец мой наложи вам тяжкое иго, аз же (тягости) приложу на иго ваше: отец мой бил вас бичми, аз же буду бити вас скорпионами.
And whereas my father chastised you with a heavy yoke, I will also add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, and I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 И прииде Иеровоам и вси людие к Ровоаму в день третий, якоже повеле им царь, глаголя: возвратитеся ко мне в день третий.
And Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam on the third day, as the king had spoken, saying, Return to me on the third day.
13 И отвеща царь жестоко, и остави царь Ровоам совет старейшин, и рече к ним по совету юнош, глаголя:
And the king answered harshly; and king Roboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 отец мой отяготи иго ваше, аз же приложу к нему: отец мой бил вас бичми, аз же бити буду вы скорпионами.
and spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15 И не послуша царь людий, яко бе превращение от Бога, глаголя: возстави Господь слово Свое, еже глагола рукою Ахии Силониты о Иеровоаме сыне Наватове
And the king hearkened not to the people, for there was a change [of their minds] from God, saying, The Lord has confirmed his word, which he spoke by the hand of Achia the Selonite concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and [concerning] all Israel;
16 и о всем Израили, зане не послуша царь их. И отвещаша людие ко царю, глаголюще: кая нам часть в Давиде и наследие в сыне Иессееве? Возвратися в жилища твоя, Израилю, ныне смотри дому твоего, Давиде. И иде весь Израиль в жилища своя.
for the king did not hearken to them. And the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David, or inheritance in the son of Jessae? to thy tents, O Israel: now see to thine own house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.
17 Мужие же Израилевы, иже обитаху во градех Иудиных, воцариша над собою Ровоама.
But the men of Israel, even those who dwelt in the cities of Juda, [remained] and made Roboam king over them.
18 И посла царь Ровоам к ним Адонирама бывша над даньми, и камением побиша его сынове Израилевы, и умре. И услыша царь Ровоам, и потщася взыти на колесницу, и побеже во Иерусалим.
And king Roboam sent to them Adoniram that was over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. And king Roboam hasted to mount [his] chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 И отвержеся Израиль от дому Давидова даже до дне сего.
So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.
