< Исход 2 >

1 Бяше же некто от племене Левиина, иже поя от дщерей Левииных, и имяше ю:
And there was a certain man of the tribe of Levi, who took as wife one of the daughters of Levi.
2 и зача во чреве и роди мужеский пол. Видевше же его лепа, крыша его три месяцы:
And she conceived, and bore a male child; and having seen that he was fair, they hid him three months.
3 и понеже не можаху его ктому крыти, взя ему мати его ковчежец ситовый и помаза и клеем и смолою, и вложи отроча в него, и положи его в лучице при реце:
And when they could no longer hide him, his mother took for him an ark, and besmeared it with bitumen, and cast the child into it, and put it in the ooze by the river.
4 и наблюдаше сестра его издалеча, да уведает, что будет ему.
And his sister was watching from a distance, to learn what would happen to him.
5 Сниде же дщерь фараонова измытися на реку, и рабыни ея прохождаху при реце. И видевши ковчежец в лучице, пославши рабыню, взя и.
And the daughter of Pharao came down to the river to bathe; and her maids walked by the river's side, and having seen the ark in the ooze, she sent her maid, and took it up.
6 Отверзши же, видит отроча плачущееся в ковчежце, и пощаде е дщерь фараоня, и рече: от детей Еврейских сие.
And having opened it, she sees the babe weeping in the ark: and the daughter of Pharao had compassion on it, and said, This [is one] of the Hebrew's children.
7 И рече сестра его дщери фараонове: хощеши ли, призову ти жену кормилицу от Еврей, и воздоит ти отроча?
And his sister said to the daughter of Pharao, Will you that I call to you a nurse of the Hebrews, and shall she suckle the child for you?
8 И рече ей дщерь фараонова: иди. Шедши же отроковица, призва матерь отрочате.
And the daughter of Pharao said, Go: and the young woman went, and called the mother of the child.
9 Рече же к ней дщерь фараонова: соблюди ми отроча сие и воздой ми е: аз же дам ти мзду. Взя же отроча жена и дояше е.
And the daughter of Pharao said to her, Take care of this child, and suckled it for me, and I will give you the wages; and the woman took the child, and suckled it.
10 Возмужавшу же отрочати, введе е ко дщери фараонове, и бысть ей в сына, и нарече имя ему Моисей, глаголющи: от воды взях его.
And when the boy was grown, she brought him to the daughter of Pharao, and he became her son; and she called his name, Moses, saying, I took him out of the water.
11 Бысть же во дни многия оны, велик быв Моисей, изыде к братиям своим, сыном Израилевым. Разумев же болезнь их, виде человека Египтянина биюща некоего Евреанина от братии его сынов Израилевых.
And it came to pass in that length of time, that Moses having grown, went out to his brethren the sons of Israel: and having noticed their distress, he sees an Egyptian striking a certain Hebrew of his brethren the children of Israel.
12 Обозревся же семо и овамо, ни когоже виде: и поразив Египтянина, скры его в песце.
And having looked round this way and that way, he sees no one; and he struck the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 Изшед же во вторый день, виде два мужа Евреанина биющася и глагола обидящему: чесо ради ты биеши искренняго?
And having gone out the second day he sees two Hebrew men fighting; and he says to the injurer, Therefore smite you your neighbour?
14 Он же рече: кто тя постави князя и судию над нами? Еда убити мя ты хощеши, имже образом убил еси вчера Египтянина? Убояся же Моисей и рече: аще сице явлен бысть глагол сей?
And he said, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? will you kill me as you yesterday killed the Egyptian? Then Moses was alarmed, and said, If [it be] thus, this matter has become known.
15 Услыша же фараон глагол сей и искаше убити Моисеа. Отиде же Моисей от лица фараонова и вселися в земли Мадиамстей: пришед же в землю Мадиамскую седе при кладязе.
And Pharao heard this matter, and sought to kill Moses; and Moses departed from the presence of Pharao, and lived in the land of Madiam; and having come into the land of Madiam, he sat on the well.
16 Священнику же Мадиамскому беша седмь дщерей, пасущих овцы отца своего Иофора: пришедшя же черпаху, дондеже наполниша корыта, напоити овцы отца своего Иофора.
And the priest of Madiam had seven daughters, feeding the flock of their father Jothor; and they came and drew water until they filled their pitchers, to water the flock of their father Jothor.
17 Пришедше же пастырие изгнаша я. Востав же Моисей избави их, и налия им и напои овцы их.
And the shepherds came, and were driving them away; and Moses rose up and rescued them, and drew water for them, and watered their sheep.
18 Приидоша же к Рагуилу отцу своему. Он же рече им: что яко ускористе приити днесь?
And they came to Raguel their father; and he said to them, Why have you come so quickly today?
19 Оныя же рекоша: человек Египтянин избави нас от пастырей, и начерпа нам и напои овцы нашя.
And they said, An Egyptian delivered us from the shepherds, and drew water for us and watered our sheep.
20 Он же рече дщерем своим: и где есть? И вскую сице остависте человека? Призовите убо его, да яст хлеб.
And he said to his daughters, And where is he? and why have you left the man? call him therefore, that he may eat bread.
21 Вселися же Моисей у человека: и даде Сепфору дщерь свою Моисею в жену.
And Moses was established with the man, and he gave Sepphora his daughter to Moses to wife.
22 Во чреве же заченши жена роди сына, и нарече Моисей имя ему Гирсам, глаголя: яко пришлец есмь в земли чуждей. Еще же заченши роди сына втораго, и нарече имя ему Елиезер, глаголя: Бог бо отца моего помощник мой и избави мя из руки фараоновы.
And the woman conceived and bore a son, and Moses called his name Gersam, saying, I am a sojourner in a strange land.
23 По днех же многих тех, умре царь Египетский, и возстенаша сынове Израилевы от дел и возопиша, и взыде вопль их к Богу от дел.
And in those days after a length of time, the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel groaned because of their tasks, and cried, and their cry because of their tasks went up to God.
24 И услыша Бог стенание их: и помяну Бог завет Свой иже ко Аврааму и Исааку и Иакову,
And God heard their groanings, and God remembered his covenant made with Abraam and Isaac and Jacob.
25 и призре Бог на сыны Израилевы, и познан бысть ими.
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and was made known to them.
