1 Samuel 4
1 And it happened that, in those days, the Philistines assembled to fight. And Israel went out to meet the Philistines in battle, and he made camp beside the Stone of Assistance. But the Philistines went to Aphek,
И бысть во дни оны, и собрашася иноплеменницы противу Израиля на брань: и изыде Израиль во сретение им на брань, и ополчишася во Авенезере, и иноплеменницы ополчишася во Афеце:
2 and they positioned their troops against Israel. Then, when the conflict began, Israel turned his back to the Philistines. And they were cut down in that conflict, in various places in the fields, about four thousand men.
и сразишася иноплеменницы на брани со Израилтяны, и преклонися брань, и падоша мужие Израилевы пред иноплеменники, и убиени быша в брани на селе четыри тысящы мужей.
3 And the people returned to the camp. And those greater by birth of Israel said: “Why has the Lord struck us today before the Philistines? Let us bring to ourselves the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Shiloh. And let it enter into our midst, so that it may save us from the hand of our enemies.”
И приидоша людие в полк, и реша старейшины Израилевы: почто порази нас Господь днесь пред иноплеменники? Возмем кивот Бога нашего от Силома, и изыдет посреде нас и спасет ны от руки враг наших.
4 Therefore, the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from there the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts, sitting upon the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were with the ark of the covenant of God.
И послаша людие в Силом, и взяша оттуду кивот Господа седящаго на херувимех: и (быша) тамо оба сына Илиина с кивотом Божиим, Офни и Финеес.
5 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord had arrived in the camp, all of Israel shouted with a great clamor, and the land resounded.
И бысть егда прииде кивот Господень в полк, и возопи весь Израиль гласом великим, и возшуме земля.
6 And the Philistines heard the voice of the clamor, and they said, “What is this voice of a great clamor in the camp of the Hebrews?” And they realized that the ark of the Lord had arrived in the camp.
И услышаша иноплеменницы глас вопля и реша: что сей вопль великий в полце Еврейсте? И уразумеша, яко кивот Господень прииде в полк.
7 And the Philistines were afraid, saying, “God has entered into the camp.” And they groaned, saying:
И убояшася иноплеменницы и реша: сии бози приидоша к ним в полк: горе нам, изми ны, Господи, днесь: яко не бысть тако вчера и третияго дне:
8 “Woe to us! For there was no such great exultation yesterday, or the day before. Woe to us! Who will save us from the hand of these sublime gods? These are the gods who struck Egypt with all the plagues, in the desert.”
горе нам, кто ны измет от руки богов крепких сих? Сии суть бози, побившии Египта всякими язвами и в пустыни:
9 “Be strengthened, and be manly, O Philistines! Otherwise, you may serve the Hebrews, as they also have served you. Be strengthened and wage war!”
укрепитеся и будите в мужы, иноплеменницы, яко да не поработаете Евреом, якоже поработаша нам, будите убо в мужы и бийтеся с ними.
10 Therefore, the Philistines fought, and Israel was cut down, and each one fled to his own tent. And an exceedingly great slaughter occurred. And thirty thousand foot soldiers from Israel fell.
И бишася с ними: и падоша мужие Израилевы пред иноплеменники, и побеже кийждо в селение свое, и бысть язва велика зело: и паде от Израиля тридесять тысящ чинов:
11 And the ark of God was captured. Also, the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.
и кивот Божий взят бысть, и оба сыны Илиины умроша, Офни и Финеес.
12 Now a man of Benjamin, rushing from the troops, arrived at Shiloh on the same day, with his clothing torn, and with his head sprinkled with dust.
И тече муж от брани Иеминей, и прииде в Силом в день он, и ризы своя растерзав, и персть бе на главе его.
13 And when he had arrived, Eli was sitting on a seat opposite the way, gazing out. For his heart was fearful on behalf of the ark of God. Then, after this man entered the city, he announced it to the city. And the entire city wailed.
И прииде, и се, Илий седяше на престоле своем у дверий, смотря на путь, яко бе сердце его во ужасе (велице) о кивоте Божии. И человек вниде во град возвещая: и возопи весь град гласом великим:
14 And Eli heard the sound of the outcry, and he said, “What is this sound, this tumult?” And the man hurried, and he went and announced it to Eli.
и слыша Илий глас вопля и рече: что есть глас вопля сего? И человек потщався вниде и поведа Илию.
15 Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes had dimmed, so that he was not able to see.
И бе Илий девятидесяти осми лет, и очи его изнемогоста, и не видяше.
16 And he said to Eli: “I am the one who came from the battle. And it is I who fled from the troops today.” And he said to him, “What has happened, my son?”
И рече Илий мужем предстоящым себе: что глас вопля сего? И муж потщався вниде ко Илию и рече ему: аз есмь пришедый из полка, и аз прибежах от брани днесь. И рече Илий: что бывший глагол, чадо?
17 And responding, the man reported and said: “Israel has fled before the Philistines. And a great ruin has happened to the people. Moreover, your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, also have died. And the ark of God has been captured.”
И отвеща отрочищь и рече: побежаша мужие Израилевы от лица иноплеменников, и язва велия бысть в людех, и оба сыны твоя умроша, и кивот Божий взят есть.
18 And when he had named the ark of God, he fell from the seat backwards, toward the door, and, having broken his neck, he died. For he was an old man of great age. And he judged Israel for forty years.
И бысть егда помяну о кивоте Божии, и паде (Илий) с престола взнак близ дверий, и сокрушися хребет его, и умре, яко стар бе человек и тяжек: и той суди Израилеви четыредесять лет.
19 Now his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was pregnant, and her delivery was near. And upon hearing the news that the ark of God had been captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband had died, she bent down and went into labor. For her pains rushed upon her suddenly.
И сноха его жена Финеесова заченшая родити, и слыша весть, яко взят бысть кивот Божий и яко умре свекор ея и муж ея, и восплакася (горько), и роди, яко обратишася на ню болезни ея.
20 Then, when she was near death, those who were standing around her said to her, “You should not be afraid, for you have given birth to a son.” But she did not respond to them, and she did not notice them.
И во время, внегда умираше, реша ей жены предстоящыя ей: не бойся, яко сына родила еси. И не отвеща, и не разуме сердце ея.
21 And she called the boy Ichabod, saying, “The glory of Israel has been taken away,” because the ark of God was captured, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
И нарече отрочища Уехавоф: и реша о кивоте Божии и о свекре ея и о мужи ея: преселися слава от Израиля, яко взятся кивот Господень, и яко умре свекор ея и муж ея.
22 And she said, “The glory has been taken away from Israel,” because the ark of God had been captured.
И рече: преселися слава Израилева, яко взят бысть кивот Божий.
