< Judges 18 >

1 In those dayes there was no King in Israel, and at the same time the tribe of Dan sought them an inheritance to dwell in: for vnto that time all their inheritance had not fallen vnto them among the tribes of Israel.
В тыя дни не бяше царя во Израили: и в тыя дни племя Даново искаше себе наследия вселитися, яко не паде ему наследие до дний оных среде племен сынов Израилевых.
2 Therefore the children of Dan sent of their familie, fiue men out of their coastes, euen men expert in warre, out of Zorah and Eshtaol, to viewe the lande and search it out, and saide vnto them, Goe, and search out the lande. Then they came to mount Ephraim to the house of Michah and lodged there.
И послаша сынове Дановы от сонмов своих пять мужей от части своея, мужы сильны от Сараи и Есфаола, соглядати землю и изследити ю, и рекоша к ним: идите и изследите землю. И приидоша до горы Ефремли, до дому Михина, и сташа тамо в дому Михи.
3 When they were in the house of Michah, they knewe the voyce of the yong man the Leuite: and being turned in thither, they saide vnto him, Who brought thee hither? or what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou to doe here?
И тии познаша глас юноши левитина, и уклонишася тамо, и рекоша ему: кто тя приведе семо? И что твориши в месте сем? И что тебе зде?
4 And he answered them, Thus and thus dealeth Michah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his Priest.
И рече им: сице и сице сотвори мне Миха, и ная мя, и бых ему жрец.
5 Againe they said vnto him, Aske counsell nowe of God, that we may knowe whether the way which we goe, shalbe prosperous.
И рекоша ему: вопроси убо Бога, и увемы, аще благопоспешится путь наш, в оньже мы идем.
6 And the Priest sayde vnto them, Goe in peace: for the Lord guideth your way which ye goe.
И рече им жрец: идите с миром: пред Господем путь ваш, в оньже идете.
7 Then the fiue men departed and came to Laish, and sawe the people that were therein, which dwelt carelesse, after the maner of the Zidonians, quiet and sure, because no man made any trouble in the lande, or vsurped any dominion: also they were farre from the Zidonians, and had no businesse with other men.
И идоша пять мужие и приидоша в Лаис: и видеша людий живущих в нем, седящих со упованием по обычаю Сидонян, в тишине и надежде, и не бе устрашаяй, или посрамляяй словесе на земли, наследник истязуяй сокровища: зане далече бяху от Сидонян, и не имяху словесе с киим либо человеком.
8 So they came againe vnto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brethren saide vnto them, What haue ye done?
И приидоша пять мужей ко братии своей в Сараю и Есфаол и рекоша братии своей: что вы седите?
9 And they answered, Arise, that we may goe vp against them: for we haue seene the lande, and surely it is very good, and doe ye sit stil? be not slouthfull to goe and enter to possesse the lande:
И реша: востаните, и взыдем на ня, зане видехом землю, и се, блага зело, и вы молчите: не обленитеся ити и внити еже наследити землю:
10 (If ye will goe, ye shall come vnto a carelesse people, and the countrey is large) for God hath giuen it into your hande. It is a place which doeth lacke nothing that is in the worlde.
и егда приидете, внидете в люди живущыя со упованием, а земля пространна: яко предаде ю Бог в руки вашя, место на немже несть скудости во всем еже на земли.
11 Then there departed thence of the familie of the Danites, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, sixe hundreth men appointed with instruments of warre.
И воздвигошася оттуду от племене Данова, от Сараи и Есфаола, шесть сот мужей препоясани во оружие ополчения,
12 And they went vp, and pitched in Kiriath-iearim in Iudah: wherefore they called that place, Mahaneh-Dan vnto this day: and it is behinde Kiriath-iearim.
и взыдоша и ополчишася в Кариафиариме во Иуде: сего ради наречеся место то полк Данов и до сего дне: се созади Кариафиарима.
13 And they went thence vnto mount Ephraim, and came to the house of Michah.
И преидоша оттуду в гору Ефремлю и приидоша до дому Михина.
14 Then answered the fiue men, that went to spie out the countrey of Laish, and said vnto their brethren, Knowe ye not, that there is in these houses an Ephod, and Teraphim, and a grauen and a molten image? Nowe therefore consider what ye haue to doe.
И отвещаша пять мужей ходившии соглядати землю Лаис и рекоша ко братии своей: разуместе ли, яко есть в дому сем ефуд и ферафин, и изваяно и слияно? И ныне уведите, что сотворите.
15 And they turned thitherward and came to the house of the yong man the Leuite, euen vnto the house of Michah, and saluted him peaceably.
И уклонишася тамо и внидоша в дом юноши левитина, в дом Михин, и вопросиша его в мире.
16 And the six hundreth men appointed with their weapons of warre, which were of the children of Dan, stoode by the entring of the gate.
И шесть сот мужей препоясани во оружие ополчения своего, стояще у дверий вратных, иже от сынов Дановых.
17 Then the fiue men that went to spie out the land, went in thither, and tooke the grauen image and the Ephod, and the Teraphim, and the molten image: and the Priest stoode in the entring of the gate with the sixe hundreth men, that were appointed with weapons of warre,
И взыдоша пять мужей ходивших соглядати землю: и вшедше тамо взяша изваяно, и ефуд и ферафин, и слияное: жрец же стояше у дверий вратных, и шесть сот мужей препоясани во оружие воинско:
18 And the other went into Michahs house and fet the grauen image, the Ephod, and the Teraphim, and the molten image. Then saide the Priest vnto them, What doe ye?
и сии внидоша в дом Михин и взяша ефуд и ферафин, и слияно и изваяно. И рече к ним жрец: что вы творите?
19 And they answered him, Holde thy peace: lay thine hande vpon thy mouth, and come with vs to be our father and Priest. Whether is it better that thou shouldest be a Priest vnto ye house of one man, or that thou shouldest be a Priest vnto a tribe and to a familie in Israel?
И реша ему: умолчи, положи руку твою на уста твоя и пойди с нами, и буди нам отец и жрец: еда уне есть тебе быти жерцу единаго мужа дому, нежели быти жерцу племени и дому и сонма Израилева?
20 And the Priestes heart was glad, and hee tooke the Ephod and the Teraphim, and the grauen image, and went among the people.
И возблажа сердце жреческо, и взя ефуд и ферафин, и изваяное и слияное, и вниде посреде людий.
21 And they turned and departed, and put the children, and the cattell, and the substance before them.
И возвратишася и отидоша, и пустиша пред собою чада и притяжание свое честное.
22 When they were farre off from the house of Michah, the men that were in the houses neere to Michahs house, gathered together, and pursued after the children of Dan,
Удалившымся же им от дому Михина, и се, Миха и мужие иже в жилищах, яже с домом Михиным быша, воззваша и постигоша сыны Дановы,
23 And cryed vnto the children of Dan: who turned their faces, and said vnto Michah, What ayleth thee, that thou makest an outcrie?
и возопиша к сыном Дановым: и обратиша сынове Дановы лица своя и реша к Михе: что есть тебе, яко воззвал еси?
24 And hee saide, Yee haue taken away my gods, which I made, and the Priest, and go your wayes: and what haue I more? howe then say ye vnto me, what ayleth thee?
И рече Миха: яко изваяное мое, еже сотворих, взясте, и жерца, и поидосте: и что мне еще? И что сие глаголете мне: что вопиеши?
25 And the children of Dan sayde vnto him, Let not thy voyce be heard among vs, least angrie fellowes runne vpon thee, and thou lose thy life with the liues of thine housholde.
И рекоша ему сынове Дановы: да не услышится ныне глас твой вслед нас, да не востанут на вы мужие лютою душею, и положиши душу твою и душу дому твоего.
26 So the children of Dan went their wayes: and when Michah saw that they were too strong for him, hee turned, and went backe vnto his house.
И идоша сынове Дановы в путь свой. И виде Миха, яко сильнейшии суть паче его, и возвратися в дом свой.
27 And they tooke the things which Michah had made, and the Priest which he had, and came vnto Laish, vnto a quiet people and without mistrust, and smote them with the edge of the sworde, and burnt the citie with fire:
И сынове Дановы взяша, елика сотвори Миха, и жерца, иже бяше у него, и приидоша в Лаис, к людем молчащым и уповающым надеждею, и избиша их острием меча, и град сожгоша огнем:
28 And there was none to helpe, because Laish was farre from Zidon, and they had no businesse with other men: also it was in the valley that lyeth by Beth-rehob. After, they built the citie, and dwelt therein,
и не бяше избавляяй, яко далече бяху от Сидонян, и словесе не бяше им с человеком: и сей (град бысть) во удолии Дому Роовля: и соградиша град и вселишася в нем,
29 And called the name of the citie Dan, after the name of Dan their father which was borne vnto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the beginning.
и нарекоша граду имя Дан, во имя Дана отца своего, иже родися Израилю: и бяше прежде имя граду Лаис.
30 Then the children of Dan set them vp the grauen image: and Ionathan the sonne of Gershom, the sonne of Manasseh and his sonnes were the Priestes in the tribe of the Danites vntil the day of the captiuitie of the lande.
И поставиша себе сынове Дановы изваяное: Ионафан же сын Гирсонь сын Манассиин, той и сынове его бяху жерцы племени Данову до дне преселения земли:
31 So they set them vp the grauen image, which Michah had made, all the while the house of God was in Shiloh.
и поставиша себе изваяное, еже сотвори Миха, во вся дни, в няже бяше дом Божий в Силоме.
