Joshua 10
1 When Adonizedek, the king of Jerusalem, had heard these things, specifically, that Joshua had seized Ai, and had overthrown it, (for just as he had done to Jericho and its king, so did he do to Ai and its king, ) and that the Gibeonites had fled over to Israel, and were now their confederates,
Егда же услыша Адонивезек царь Иерусалимский, яко взя Иисус Гай и потреби его, якоже сотвори Иерихону и царю его, тако сотвори и Гаю и царю его, и яко сами вдашася живущии в Гаваоне ко Иисусу и ко Израилю, и быша в них,
2 he was very afraid. For Gibeon was a great city, and was one of the royal cities, and was greater than the town of Ai, and all its warriors were very strong.
и убояшася сами в себе зело: ведяху бо, яко град бяше велик Гаваон, яко един от великих градов, и вси мужие иже в нем крепцы.
3 Therefore, Adonizedek, the king of Jerusalem, sent to Hoham, the king of Hebron, and to Piram, the king of Jarmuth, and also to Japhia, the king of Lachish, and to Debir, the king of Eglon, saying:
И посла Адонивезек царь Иерусалимский к Еламу царю Хевронску и Фераану царю Иеримуфску, и ко Афию царю Лахисску, и к Давиру царю Одолламску, глаголя:
4 “Ascend to me, and bring troops, so that we may fight against Gibeon. For it has fled over to Joshua and the sons of Israel.”
приидите, взыдите ко мне и помозите ми, да повоюем Гаваона: вдашася бо сами ко Иисусу и к сыном Израилевым.
5 And so, having assembled, the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, together with their armies, went up and encamped around Gibeon, laying siege to it.
И собрашася и взыдоша пять царей Иевусейских: царь Иерусалимский и царь Хевронский, и царь Иеримуфский и царь Лахисский и царь Одолламский, сами и вси людие их, и обседоша Гаваона и воеваша на него.
6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gibeon, when it was besieged, sent to Joshua, who was then staying in the camp at Gilgal. And they said to him: “May you not draw back your hands from helping your servants. Come quickly, and free us, and bring troops. For all the kings of the Amorites, who live in the mountains, have gathered together against us.”
И послаша живущии в Гаваоне ко Иисусу в полк Израилев в Галгалы, глаголюще: не отрешай руки твоея от раб твоих: взыди к нам скоро и помози нам, и изми нас: яко собрани суть на ны вси царие Аморрейстии, живущии в горней.
7 And Joshua ascended from Gilgal, and the entire army of warriors with him, very strong men.
И взыде Иисус от Галгал, сам и вси людие воинстии с ним, всяк сильный крепостию.
8 And the Lord said to Joshua: “You should not fear them. For I have delivered them into your hands. None of them will be able to withstand you.”
И рече Господь ко Иисусу: не убойся их, яко в руце твои предах я: не останет от них ни един пред вами.
9 And so Joshua, ascending from Gilgal throughout the night, rushed upon them suddenly.
И прииде на них Иисус внезапу: всю бо нощь иде от Галгал.
10 And the Lord set them in disarray before the face of Israel. And he crushed them in a great defeat at Gibeon, and he pursued them along the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and he struck them down, even as far as Azekah and Makkedah.
И ужаси я Господь от лица сынов Израилевых: и сокруши я Господь сокрушением великим в Гаваоне: и погнаша я путем восхода Вифоронска, и сечаху их даже до Азика и до Макида.
11 And while they were fleeing from the sons of Israel, and were on the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast great stones from heaven upon them, as far as Azekah. And many more were killed by the hailstones, than were struck down by the swords of the sons of Israel.
Внегда же бежати им от лица сынов Израилевых до восхода Вифоронска, и Господь верже на ня камение великое града с небесе даже до Азика, и бысть множае умерших от града каменна, неже убиенных от сынов Израилевых мечем на брани.
12 Then Joshua spoke to the Lord, on the day that he handed over the Amorite in the sight of the sons of Israel, and he said before them: “O sun, you shall not move toward Gibeon! O moon, you shall not move toward the valley of Aijalon!”
Тогда глагола Иисус ко Господу, в оньже день предаде Господь Бог Аморреа под руку Израилеву, егда сокруши их в Гаваоне, и сокрушишася от лица Израилева: и рече Иисус: да станет солнце прямо Гаваону, и луна прямо дебри Елон.
13 And the sun and the moon stood still, until the people had avenged themselves of their enemies. Has this not been written in the book of the just? And so the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and it did not hurry to its rest for the space of one day.
И ста солнце и луна в стоянии, дондеже отмсти Бог врагом их. Не сие ли есть писано в книгах Праведнаго: и ста солнце посреде небесе и не идяше на запад в совершение дне единаго?
14 Never before and never after was there so long a day, as when the Lord obeyed the voice of a man, and fought for Israel.
И не бысть день таковый ниже прежде, ниже последи, еже послушати Богу тако гласа человеча, яко Господь споборствова Израилю.
15 And Joshua returned, with all of Israel, into the camp of Gilgal.
И возвратися Иисус и весь Израиль с ним в полк в Галгалы.
16 For the five kings had fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave, near the city of Makkedah.
И убегоша пять царие сии и скрышася в пещере яже в Макиде.
17 And it was reported to Joshua that the five kings had been found hidden in a cave, near the city of Makkedah.
И поведаша Иисусу, глаголюще: обретошася пять царие скрывшиися в пещере яже в Макиде.
18 And he instructed his companions and said: “Roll vast stones to the mouth of the cave, and station attentive men who will keep them closed.
И рече Иисус: привалите камение велие ко устию пещеры и приставите над ними мужы стрещи их:
19 But as for you, do not stay here; instead, pursue the enemies, and cut down the lattermost of those who are fleeing. You shall not permit those whom the Lord God has delivered into your hands to enter into the protection of their cities.”
вы же не стойте зде, гоняще вслед врагов ваших, и постигните останок их, и не дадите внити им во грады их, предаде бо я Господь Бог наш в руце наши.
20 Thus, the adversaries were struck down in a great defeat, and having been nearly consumed, even to utter annihilation, those who were able to escape from Israel entered into fortified cities.
И бысть егда преста Иисус и вси сынове Израилевы секуще их сечением великим зело даже до конца, и уцелевшии от них внидоша во грады тверды.
21 And the entire army returned to Joshua at Makkedah, where they were then encamped, in good health and in their full numbers. And no one dared to move his tongue against the sons of Israel.
И возвратишася вси людие в полк ко Иисусу в Макиду здрави, и не возскомле никтоже от сынов Израилевых языком своим.
22 And Joshua instructed, saying, “Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forward to me the five kings, who are hidden within it.”
И рече Иисус: отверзите устие пещеры и изведите ко мне пять царей сих из пещеры.
23 And the ministers did just as they had been ordered. And they led out to him the five kings from the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
И сотвориша тако, и изведоша к нему пять царей из пещеры: царя Иерусалимска и царя Хевронска, и царя Иеримуфска и царя Лахисска и царя Одолламска.
24 And when they had been led out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and he said to the leaders of the army who were with him, “Go, and place your feet upon the necks of these kings.” And when they had gone and had tread their feet upon the necks of those who were thrown down,
И егда изведоша их ко Иисусу, и созва Иисус всего Израиля и началники воинския ходящыя с ним, глаголя к ним: приступите и наступите ногами вашими на выи царей сих. И приступивше наступиша ногами своими на выи их.
25 he spoke to them again: “Do not be afraid, and do not dread. Be strengthened and be steadfast. For so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.”
И рече к ним Иисус: не бойтеся их, ни ужасайтеся: мужайтеся и крепитеся, яко сице сотворит Господь всем врагом вашым, ихже вы повоюете.
26 And Joshua struck them down and killed them, and he suspended them on five gallows. And they hung there until evening.
И уби я Иисус, и повеси я на пяти древесех: и быша висяще на древах даже до вечера.
27 And when the sun had set, he instructed his assistants that they should take them down from the gallows. And having been taken down, they cast them into the cave, where they had lain hidden, and they set vast stones at its mouth, which remain, even to the present.
И бысть при захождении солнца, повеле Иисус, и сняша я с древес, и ввергоша я в пещеру, в нюже вбегоша тамо: и завалиша камением великим пещеру до днешняго дне.
28 Also on the same day, Joshua seized Makkedah, and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and he put to death its king and all its inhabitants. He did not leave in it even the smallest remains. And he did to the king of Makkedah, just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Взяша же и Макиду в той день, и избиша ю острием меча и царя ея, и потребиша их и все дышущее еже бяше в ней: и не остася никтоже в ней цел и избегший. И сотвориша царю Макидску, якоже сотвориша царю Иерихонску.
29 Then he went on, with all of Israel, from Makkedah to Libnah, and he fought against it.
И отиде Иисус и весь Израиль с ним от Макиды в Левну, и облеже Левну.
30 And the Lord delivered it, with its king, into the hands of Israel. And they struck the city with the edge of the sword, and all its inhabitants. They did not leave in it any remains. And they did to the king of Libnah, just as they had done to the king of Jericho.
И предаде ю Господь в руце Израилю: и взяша ю и царя ея, и избиша ю острием меча, и все дышущее в ней: и не остася в ней ни един цел и избегший. И сотвориша царю ея, якоже сотвориша царю Иерихонску.
31 From Libnah, with all of Israel, he went on to Lachish. And taking positions around it with his army, he besieged it.
И отиде Иисус и весь Израиль с ним от Левны в Лахис, и облеже его, и воеваше нань.
32 And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hands of Israel, and he seized it on the following day, and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and every soul that was in it, just as he had done to Libnah.
И предаде Господь Лахис в руце Израилевы: и взя его в день вторый, и избиша его острием меча (и все дышущее в нем), и потребиша его, якоже сотвориша Левне.
33 At that time, Horam, the king of Gezer, went up so that he might assist Lachish. And Joshua struck him with all his people, even unto utter annihilation.
Тогда взыде Орам царь Газерск, помогаяй Лахису: и порази его Иисус острием меча, и люди его, дондеже не остася от них ни един цел и избегший.
34 And he went on from Lachish to Eglon, and he surrounded it.
И отиде Иисус и весь Израиль с ним от Лахиса во Аглон, и облеже и, и воева на него.
35 And he also defeated it on the same day. And he struck all the souls that were in it with the edge of the sword, in accord with all that he had done to Lachish.
И предаде и Господь в руце Израилю: и взя и в той день, и изби и острием меча, и все дышущее в нем уби, и сотвори ему якоже и Лахису.
36 He also ascended, with all of Israel, from Eglon into Hebron, and he fought against it.
И отиде Иисус и весь Израиль с ним в Хеврон, и обсяде и:
37 He seized it and struck it with the edge of the sword, likewise with its king, and all the towns of that region, and all the souls that were staying in it. He did not leave any remains in it. Just as he had done to Eglon, so also did he do to Hebron, consuming with the sword all that he found within it.
и взя его, и порази его острием меча, и царя его, и вся веси его, и вся дышущая елика бяху в нем: не бе уцелевый: якоже сотвориша Аглону, потребиша и и все дышущее, елика в нем бяху.
38 Returning from there to Debir,
И обратися Иисус и весь Израиль с ним в Давир: и обседше и,
39 he seized it and laid waste to it, likewise with its king. And all the surrounding towns, he struck with the edge of the sword. He did not leave in it any remains. Just as he had done to Hebron and Libnah, and to their kings, so did he do to Debir and to its king.
взяша его и царя его и вся веси его, и поразиша и мечем, и потребиша и и все дышущее в нем, и не оставиша в нем ни единаго уцелевша: якоже сотвориша Хеврону и царю его, тако сотвориша Давиру и царю его, и якоже сотвориша Левне и царю ея.
40 And so Joshua struck the entire land, the mountains, and the south, and the plains, and the descending slopes, with their kings. He did not leave in it any remains, but he put to death all that was able to breathe, just as the Lord, the God of Israel, had instructed him,
И порази Иисус всю землю горную и Нагев, и равную и Асидоф, и вся цари его: не оставиша в нем ни единаго уцелевша: и все дышущее потребиша, якоже заповеда Господь Бог Израилю.
41 from Kadesh-barnea, as far as Gaza, with all the land of Goshen, as far as Gibeon.
И изби их Иисус от Кадис-Варни даже до Газы, и всю землю Госом даже до Гаваона:
42 And all their kings and their regions, he seized and destroyed with a single attack. For the Lord, the God of Israel, fought on his behalf.
и вся цари сия и землю их взя Иисус единою: яко Господь Бог Израилев помогаше Израилю.
43 And he returned, with all of Israel, to the place of the encampment at Gilgal.
И возвратися Иисус и весь Израиль с ним в полк в Галгалы.
