1 Samuel 5
1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Eben-ezer to Ashdod.
И взяша иноплеменницы кивот Божий и изнесоша его от Авенезера во Азот:
2 And the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
и взяша иноплеменницы кивот Господень и внесоша его в храм Дагонов, и поставиша его близ Дагона.
3 And when they of Ashdod arose early the next day, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
И обутреневаша Азотяне наутрие и внидоша в храм Дагонов: и увидеша, и се, Дагон паде на землю на лице свое пред кивотом Божиим. И воздвигоша Дагона, и поставиша его на месте своем.
4 And when they arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the fish-stump was left to him.
И бысть егда восташа заутра, и се, Дагон лежаше лицем на земли пред кивотом завета Господня: глава же Дагонова и обе плесне ног его отяты на празе особо каяждо, и обе длани рук его лежаще при дверех, точию труп Дагонов остася.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any that come into Dagon's house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
Того ради не вступают жерцы Дагоновы и вси входящии в храм Дагонов на праг дому Дагонова во Азоте даже до дне сего: яко преступающе преступают.
6 And the hand of Jehovah was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he laid them waste, and smote them with hemorrhoids, — Ashdod and its borders.
И отяготе рука Господня на Азоте, и наведе на них, и воскипе им на седалищах их, во Азоте и в пределех Его, и посреде страны его умножишася мышы: и бысть смущение смерти велико во граде.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us; for his hand is severe upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
И видеша мужие Азотстии, яко тако (бысть), и глаголаша: яко не пребудет кивот Бога Израилева с нами, яко жестока рука Его на ны и на Дагона бога нашего.
8 And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they said, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about [thither].
И пославше собраша воевод иноплеменничих к себе и глаголаша: что сотворим кивоту Бога Израилева? И реша Гефее: да прейдет кивот Бога Израилева к нам в Геф. И прейде кивот Бога Израилева в Геф.
9 And it came to pass that, after they had carried it about, the hand of Jehovah was against the city with very great panic; and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and hemorrhoids broke out upon them.
И бысть по прешествии его, и бысть рука Господня на граде, мятеж велий зело: и порази мужы града от мала до велика, и порази их на седалищах их. И сотвориша Гефее себе седалища (злата),
10 And they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, when the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people.
и отпустиша кивот Божий во Аскалон. И бысть егда вниде кивот Бога Израилева во Аскалон, и возопиша Аскалонитяне глаголюще: почто возвратисте кивот Бога Израилева к нам, уморити ны и люди нашя?
11 And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it kill us not, and our people. For there was deadly alarm throughout the city: the hand of God was very heavy there;
И послаша и собраша вся воеводы иноплеменничи и реша: отпустите кивот Бога Израилева, и да поставится на месте своем, и да не уморит нас и людий наших. Яко бысть мятеж смерти во всем граде тяжек зело, егда вниде кивот Бога Израилева тамо.
12 and the men that died not were smitten with the hemorrhoids; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
И живущии и не умершии уязвишася на седалищах, и взыде вопль града до небесе.
