< Вторая книга Паралипоменон 20 >

1 По сих же приидоша сынове Моавли и сынове Аммони и с ними от Амманитов ко Иосафату на брань.
And it came to pass after this, that the sons of Moab, and the sons of Ammon, and with them some of the Minaeans, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
2 Приидоша же и сказаша Иосафату, глаголюще: идет противу тебе велико множество от об он пол моря от Сирии, и се, стоят во Асасан-Фамаре, иже есть Енгадди.
Then there came some who told Jehoshaphat, saying, There comes a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea from Syria. And, behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar (the same is En-gedi).
3 И убояся, и вдаде Иосафат лице свое взыскати Господа, и проповеда пост во всей Иудеи.
And Jehoshaphat was afraid, and set himself to seek for Jehovah. And he proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
4 И собрася весь Иуда взыскати Господа: и от всех градов Иудиных приидоша ко умолению Господню.
And Judah gathered themselves together, to seek help from Jehovah, even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek Jehovah.
5 И ста Иосафат в собрании Иуды во Иерусалиме, в дому Господни пред лицем двора новаго,
And Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem in the house of Jehovah before the new court.
6 и рече: Господи Боже отец наших, не Ты ли еси Бог на небеси горе, и Ты владычствуеши всеми царствы язык, и в руку Твоею есть крепость силы, и кто противостанет Тебе?
And he said, O Jehovah, the God of our fathers, are thou not God in heaven? And are thou not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? And in thy hand is power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee.
7 Не Ты ли еси Бог наш искоренивый живущыя на земли сей от лица людий Твоих Израиля, и дал еси ю семени Авраамлю возлюбленному Твоему во веки?
Did thou not, O our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and give it to the seed of Abraham thy friend forever?
8 И вселишася на ней, и устроиша в ней святыню имени Твоему, глаголюще:
And they dwelt therein, and have built for thee a sanctuary in it for thy name, saying,
9 аще нападут на ны злая, мечь, суд, губителство, глад, станем пред домом сим и пред Тобою, яко призвано имя Твое в дому сем, и возопием к Тебе от скорбей наших, и услышиши и спасеши:
If evil comes upon us, the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house, and before thee, (for thy name is in this house, ) and cry out to thee in our affliction, and thou will hear and save.
10 и ныне се, сынове Аммони и Моавли и гора Сиир, сквозе яже не изволил еси Израилю проити, егда исхождаху от земли Египетския, но уклонишася от них и не избиша их:
And now, behold, the sons of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir (whom thou would not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and did not destroy them),
11 и се, ныне сии нападают на ны исходяще изгонити нас от наследия нашего, еже предал еси нам.
behold, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou have given us to inherit.
12 Господи Боже наш, не судиши ли им? В нас бо несть толика крепость, да можем сему множеству сопротивитися, еже нападе на ны, и не вемы что соделати имамы им: но токмо очи наши к Тебе.
O our God, will thou not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that comes against us. Neither do we know what to do, but our eyes are upon thee.
13 И весь Иуда стояше пред Господем, и чада их, и жены их.
And all Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their sons.
14 Бе же Иозиил сын Захариин, сынов Ванеа, сынов Елеила, сынов Мафаниа левитина, от сынов Асафовых, и бысть на нем Дух Господень посреде народа,
Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite, of the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of Jehovah in the midst of the assembly.
15 и рече: слышите, весь Иуда и обитающии во Иерусалиме, и ты, царю Иосафате: сия рече Господь вам: не бойтеся, ниже ужасайтеся от лица народа сего многаго, несть бо ваше ополчение, но Божие:
And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat. Thus says Jehovah to you, Fear ye not, neither be dismayed because of this great multitude. For the battle is not yours, but God's.
16 заутра изыдите противу их: се, восходят по восходу Ассис, и обрящете их на краи реки противу пустыни Иериил:
Tomorrow go ye down against them. Behold, they come up by the ascent of Ziz. And ye shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
17 не ваше есть воевати: сия разумейте и узрите сие спасение Господне с вами, Иудо и Иерусалиме: не убойтеся, ни ужасайтеся заутра изыти противу их, и Господь с вами.
Ye shall not need to fight in this battle. Set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of Jehovah with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Fear not, nor be dismayed. Tomorrow go out against them, for Jehovah is with you.
18 И преклонься Иосафат на лице свое, и весь Иуда, и обитающии во Иерусалиме, падоша пред Господем поклонитися Господеви.
And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground. And all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshiping Jehovah.
19 И восташа левити от сынов Каафовых и от сынов Кореовых, хвалити Господа Бога Израилева гласом великим в высоту.
And the Levites, of the sons of the Kohathites and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, with an exceedingly loud voice.
20 И заутра восташа рано и изыдоша в пустыню Фекое. И внегда исходити им, ста Иосафат (посреде их), и возопи и рече: услышите мя, мужие Иудины и вси обитающии во Иерусалиме: веруйте в Господа Бога нашего и уверитеся: веруйте пророку Его, и благопоспешится вам.
And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa. And as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in Jehovah your God, so shall ye be established. Believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
21 И советова с людьми, и постави псалмопевцы, и хвалящих исповедатися, и хвалити святая, внегда изыти пред силою, и глаголаху: исповедайтеся Господеви, яко благ, яко в век милость Его.
And when he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed those who should sing to Jehovah, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks to Jehovah. For his loving kindness is forever.
22 Егда же начаша хваления и исповедания, обрати Господь воевати сынов Аммоних на Моава и гору Сиир, изшедших на Иуду, и поражени быша.
And when they began to sing and to praise, Jehovah set an ambushment against the sons of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir who came against Judah, and they were smitten.
23 И восташа сынове Аммони и Моавли на обитающих в горе Сиири, да побиют их и сокрушат: и егда скончаша обитающих в Сиире, восташа друг на друга, да потребятся.
For the sons of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to slay and destroy them utterly. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another of themselves.
24 Иуда же прииде на созирание от пустыни, и воззре, и виде множество: и се, вси мертви падше на землю, и не бе спасыйся.
And when Judah came to the watch-tower of the wilderness, they looked upon the multitude. And, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and there were none who escaped.
25 И изыде Иосафат и людие его взяти корысти их, и обретоша скота много, и одежды, и корысти, и сосуды дражайшыя и плениша их: и быша собирающе корысти их три дни, яко многи бяху.
And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches and dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away. And they were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.
26 Дне же четвертаго собрахуся во удоль благословения, ибо тако благословиша Господа: сего ради прозваша место то удоль благословения даже до сего дне.
And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Beracah, for there they blessed Jehovah. Therefore the name of that place was called The valley of Beracah to this day.
27 И возвратишася вси мужие Иудины во Иерусалим и Иосафат вождь их с веселием великим: яко возвесели их Господь о вразех их.
Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with joy. For Jehovah had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
28 И внидоша во Иерусалим со псалтирми и гусльми и трубами в дом Господень.
And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets to the house of Jehovah.
29 И бысть страх Господень на вся царства земная, внегда услышати им, яко порази Господь враги Израилевы.
And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of the countries, when they heard that Jehovah fought against the enemies of Israel.
30 И умирися царство Иосафатово, и даде ему Господь покой окрест.
So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet. For his God gave him rest round about.
31 И царствова Иосафат над Иудою, сый лет тридесяти пяти, егда царство прия и двадесять пять лет царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Азува, дщи Салиина.
And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he began to reign. And he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
32 И хождаше в путех отца своего Асы, и не уклонися от них творити правое пред Господем:
And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and did not turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah.
33 обаче высокая еще бяху, и еще людие не управиша сердца своего ко Господу Богу отец своих.
However the high places were not taken away. Neither as yet had the people set their hearts to the God of their fathers.
34 Прочая же деяния Иосафатова первая и последняя, се, писана суть во словесех Ииуа сына Ананиина, иже написа книгу царей Израилевых.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.
35 И по сих сообщися Иосафат царь Иудин со Охозиею царем Израилевым, и сей беззаконнова,
And after this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel. The same did very wickedly.
36 занеже сотвори, и отиде к нему, да сотворят корабли, еже ити во Фарсис: и сотвори корабли в Гасион-Гавере.
And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish. And they made the ships in Ezion-geber.
37 И пророчествова Елиезер сын Додиа от Марисиса на Иосафата, глаголя: понеже возимел еси любовь со Охозиею, сокруши Господь дело твое, и сокрушишася корабли твоя и не возмогоша поити во Фарсис.
Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou have joined thyself with Ahaziah, Jehovah has destroyed thy works. And the ships were broken, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
