2 Chronicles 20
1 And it came to pass after this, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them some of the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
По сих же приидоша сынове Моавли и сынове Аммони и с ними от Амманитов ко Иосафату на брань.
2 Then there came some that told Jehoshaphat, saying, There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea from Syria; and, behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar (the same is En-gedi).
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.
3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek unto Jehovah; and he proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
И убояся, и вдаде Иосафат лице свое взыскати Господа, и проповеда пост во всей Иудеи.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to seek [help] of Jehovah: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek Jehovah.
И собрася весь Иуда взыскати Господа: и от всех градов Иудиных приидоша ко умолению Господню.
5 And Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Jehovah, before the new court;
И ста Иосафат в собрании Иуды во Иерусалиме, в дому Господни пред лицем двора новаго,
6 and he said, O Jehovah, the God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and art not thou ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? and in thy hand is power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee.
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?
7 Didst not thou, O our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and give it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?
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?
8 And they dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying,
И вселишася на ней, и устроиша в ней святыню имени Твоему, глаголюще:
9 If evil come 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 unto thee in our affliction, and thou wilt hear and save.
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:
10 And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and destroyed them not;
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:
11 behold, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit.
и се, ныне сии нападают на ны исходяще изгонити нас от наследия нашего, еже предал еси нам.
12 O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
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.
13 And all Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
И весь Иуда стояше пред Господем, и чада их, и жены их.
14 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;
Бе же Иозиил сын Захариин, сынов Ванеа, сынов Елеила, сынов Мафаниа левитина, от сынов Асафовых, и бысть на нем Дух Господень посреде народа,
15 and he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat: Thus saith Jehovah unto you, Fear not ye, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
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:
16 To-morrow 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.
заутра изыдите противу их: се, восходят по восходу Ассис, и обрящете их на краи реки противу пустыни Иериил:
17 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: to-morrow go out against them; for Jehovah is with you.
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.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah.
И преклонься Иосафат на лице свое, и весь Иуда, и обитающии во Иерусалиме, падоша пред Господем поклонитися Господеви.
19 And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice.
И восташа левити от сынов Каафовых и от сынов Кореовых, хвалити Господа Бога Израилева гласом великим в высоту.
20 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.
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.
21 And when he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed them that should sing unto Jehovah, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks unto Jehovah; for his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.
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.
22 And when they began to sing and to praise, Jehovah set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, that were come against Judah; and they were smitten.
Егда же начаша хваления и исповедания, обрати Господь воевати сынов Аммоних на Моава и гору Сиир, изшедших на Иуду, и поражени быша.
23 For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
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.
24 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 that escaped.
Иуда же прииде на созирание от пустыни, и воззре, и виде множество: и се, вси мертви падше на землю, и не бе спасыйся.
25 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.
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.
26 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 unto this day.
Дне же четвертаго собрахуся во удоль благословения, ибо тако благословиша Господа: сего ради прозваша место то удоль благословения даже до сего дне.
27 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.
И возвратишася вси мужие Иудины во Иерусалим и Иосафат вождь их с веселием великим: яко возвесели их Господь о вразех их.
28 And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of Jehovah.
И внидоша во Иерусалим со псалтирми и гусльми и трубами в дом Господень.
29 And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of the countries, when they heard that Jehovah fought against the enemies of Israel.
И бысть страх Господень на вся царства земная, внегда услышати им, яко порази Господь враги Израилевы.
30 So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; for his God gave him rest round about.
И умирися царство Иосафатово, и даде ему Господь покой окрест.
31 And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
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.
32 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and turned not aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah.
И хождаше в путех отца своего Асы, и не уклонися от них творити правое пред Господем:
33 Howbeit the high places were not taken away; neither as yet had the people set their hearts unto the God of their fathers.
обаче высокая еще бяху, и еще людие не управиша сердца своего ко Господу Богу отец своих.
34 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.
Прочая же деяния Иосафатова первая и последняя, се, писана суть во словесех Ииуа сына Ананиина, иже написа книгу царей Израилевых.
35 And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel; the same did very wickedly:
И по сих сообщися Иосафат царь Иудин со Охозиею царем Израилевым, и сей беззаконнова,
36 and he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion-geber.
занеже сотвори, и отиде к нему, да сотворят корабли, еже ити во Фарсис: и сотвори корабли в Гасион-Гавере.
37 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, Jehovah hath destroyed thy works. And the ships were broken, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
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.
