1 Samuel 25
1 Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together and mourned for him, and buried him at his house at Ramah. Then David arose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
И умре Самуил, и собрашася весь Израиль, и плакашася его, и погребоша его в дому его во Армафеме. И воста Давид, и сниде в пустыню Маоню.
2 There was a man in Maon whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
И бе человек в Маоне и стада его на Кармиле, и человек велик зело: и сему овец три тысящы и коз тысяща: и бысть егда стрижаше стада своя на Кармиле:
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. This woman was intelligent and had a beautiful face; but the man was surly and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.
имя же человеку Навал и имя жене его Авигеа: и жена его блага смыслом и добра взором зело, муж же ея человек жесток и лукав в начинаниих и человек зверонравен.
4 David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
И услыша Давид в пустыни, яко стрижет Навал на Кармиле стада своя.
5 David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
И посла Давид десять отроков и рече отроком: взыдите на Кармил и идите к Навалу и вопросите его именем моим с миром,
6 Tell him, ‘Long life to you! Peace be to you! Peace be to your house! Peace be to all that you have!
и рцыте сия: здрав ли еси ты и дом твой, и вся твоя здрава ли суть?
7 Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds have now been with us, and we didn’t harm them. Nothing was missing from them all the time they were in Carmel.
И ныне се, услышах, яко стригут тебе ныне пастуси твои, иже беша с нами в пустыни, и не возбранихом им, и не повелехом им ничесоже во вся дни, егда беша на Кармиле:
8 Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favour in your eyes, for we come on a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David.’”
вопроси отроков твоих и возвестят ти: и да обрящут отроцы твои благодать пред очима твоима, яко в день благ приидохом: даждь убо ныне еже обрящет рука твоя отроком твоим и сыну твоему Давиду.
9 When David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal all those words in the name of David, and waited.
И приидоша отроцы Давидовы и глаголаша словеса сия к Навалу, по всем глаголом сим именем Давидовым.
10 Nabal answered David’s servants and said, “Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.
И возскочи Навал и отвеща отроком Давидовым и рече: кто Давид? И кто сын Иессеов? Днесь умножени суть раби отходяще кийждо от лица господина своего:
11 Shall I then take my bread, my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who I don’t know where they come from?”
и возму ли хлебы моя и вино мое и закланая моя, яже заклах стригущым моя овцы, и дам ли оная мужем, ихже не вем откуду суть?
12 So David’s young men turned on their way and went back, and came and told him all these words.
И возвратишася отроцы Давидовы путем своим, и возвращшеся приидоша и возвестиша Давиду по глаголом сим.
13 David said to his men, “Every man put on his sword!” Every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David, and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
И рече Давид мужем своим: препояшитеся кийждо оружием своим. И препоясашася оружием своим, и сам Давид препоясася мечем своим, и идоша вслед Давида, яко четыреста мужей, а двести их осташася у сосудов.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he insulted them.
И Авигеи жене Навалове поведа един отрок, глаголя: се, присыла Давид послы от пустыни благословити господина нашего, он же отвратися от них:
15 But the men were very good to us, and we were not harmed, and we didn’t miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.
мужие же блази (беша) нам зело, не возбраняху нам, ниже повелеваху нам что во вся дни, в няже бехом с ними:
16 They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
и сущым нам на селе, аки стена беша окрест нас, и в нощи и во дни, по вся дни в няже бехом с ними пасуще стада:
17 Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master and against all his house, for he is such a worthless fellow that one can’t speak to him.”
и ныне разумей и виждь ты, что сотвориши, яко совершися злоба на господина нашего и на дом его, и сей сын губитель, и не возможно глаголати к нему.
18 Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two containers of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five seahs of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
И потщася Авигеа, и взя двести хлебов и два сосуда вина и пять овец устроеных и пять мер муки чистыя и кошницу гроздия и двести вязаниц смоквей, и возложи на ослята,
19 She said to her young men, “Go on before me. Behold, I am coming after you.” But she didn’t tell her husband, Nabal.
и рече ко отроком своим: поидите предо мною, и се, аз вслед вас иду. Мужу же своему не возвести.
20 As she rode on her donkey, and came down hidden by the mountain, behold, David and his men came down towards her, and she met them.
И бысть, вседшей ей на ослицу и сходящей в подгорие, и се, Давид и мужие его идяху сопротиву ея, и срете их.
21 Now David had said, “Surely in vain I have kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.
И рече Давид: воистинну всуе вся навалова сохраних в пустыни, и ничесоже повелех взяти от всех яже его, и воздаде ми злая за благая:
22 God do so to the enemies of David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
сия да сотворит Бог Давиду и сия да приложит, аще до утра оставлю от всех Наваловых даже до мочащагося к стене.
23 When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got off her donkey, and fell before David on her face and bowed herself to the ground.
И увиде Авигеа Давида, и потщася и скочи со осляте, и паде пред Давидом на лице свое, и поклонися ему до земли,
24 She fell at his feet and said, “On me, my lord, on me be the blame! Please let your servant speak in your ears. Hear the words of your servant.
и паде на ноги его и рече: во мне, господине мой, неправда моя: да глаголет ныне раба твоя во ушы твои, и послушай словес рабы твоея:
25 Please don’t let my lord pay attention to this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, didn’t see my lord’s young men whom you sent.
да не возложит ныне господин мой сердца своего на человека гибелнаго сего, яко по имени своему той есть: Навал имя ему, и безумие с ним: аз же раба твоя не видех отроков господина моего, ихже послал еси:
26 Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, since the LORD has withheld you from blood guiltiness and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies and those who seek evil to my lord be as Nabal.
и ныне, господине мой, жив Господь и жива душа твоя, якоже возбрани тебе Господь еже не приити на кровь неповинну и спасти тебе руку твою: и ныне да будут якоже Навал врази твои и ищущии господину моему зла:
27 Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.
и ныне возми благословение сие, еже принесе раба твоя господину моему, и даждь отроком предстоящым господину моему:
28 Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the LORD’s battles. Evil will not be found in you all your days.
отими ныне неправду рабы твоея, яко творя сотворит Господь дом верен господину моему, яко на брани господина моего Господь споборет, и злоба не обрящется в тебе никогдаже:
29 Though men may rise up to pursue you and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord will be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies as from a sling’s pocket.
и аще востанет человек гоняй тя и ищай души твоея, и будет душа господина моего привязана соузом жизни у Господа Бога, и душу врагов твоих поразиши пращею посреде пращи:
30 It will come to pass, when the LORD has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and has appointed you prince over Israel,
и будет егда сотворит Господь господину моему вся, елика глаголаше благая о тебе, и повелит тебе Господь (быти) вождем во Израили,
31 that this shall be no grief to you, nor offence of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. When the LORD has dealt well with my lord, then remember your servant.”
и не будет тебе сие мерзость и соблазн сердцу господина моего, еже излияти кровь неповинную туне и спасти руку свою себе: и да благо сотворит Господь господину моему, и воспомянеши рабу твою, еже благосотворити ей.
32 David said to Abigail, “Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you today to meet me!
И рече Давид ко Авигеи: благословен Господь Бог Израилев, иже посла тя днесь на сретение ми,
33 Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, who have kept me today from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.
и благословен совет твой, и благословена ты удержавшая мя в день сей ити на пролитие крове, и спасти ми руку мою:
34 For indeed, as the LORD the God of Israel lives, who has withheld me from harming you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
обаче жив Господь Бог Израилев, иже возбрани ми днесь зло сотворити тебе: зане аще бы не потщалася и не пришла еси на сретение мне, тогда рех: аще останется Навалу до утренняго света мочащийся к стене.
35 So David received from her hand that which she had brought him. Then he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice and have granted your request.”
И прия Давид от руку ея вся, яже принесе ему, и рече ей: иди с миром в дом свой: виждь, послушах гласа твоего и приях лице твое.
36 Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.
И прииде Авигеа к Навалу: и се, у него пир в дому его, яко пир царев: и сердце навалово весело в нем, и той пиян до зела. И не возвести Авигеа Навалу глагола ни велика ни мала до света утренняго.
37 In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
И бысть заутра, егда истрезвися Навал от вина, поведа ему жена его вся глаголы сия, и умре сердце его в нем, и той бысть яко камень.
38 About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal, so that he died.
И бысть яко десять дний, и порази Господь Навала, и умре.
39 When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed is the LORD, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil. The LORD has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to himself as wife.
И услыша Давид и рече: благословен Господь, иже суди суд поношения моего от руки Навали, и раба Своего удержа от руки злых, и злобу Навалю обрати Господь на главу его. И посла Давид и глагола ко Авигеи пояти ю себе в жену.
40 When David’s servants had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you, to take you to him as wife.”
И приидоша отроцы Давидовы ко Авигеи в Кармил, и реша ей, глаголюще: Давид посла нас к тебе, да тя поймет себе в жену.
41 She arose and bowed herself with her face to the earth, and said, “Behold, your servant is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”
И воста и поклонися до земли лицем и рече: се, раба твоя в рабыню умывати ноги отроком твоим.
42 Abigail hurriedly arose and rode on a donkey with her five maids who followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
И воста Авигеа, и вседе на осля, и пять девиц идяху вслед ея, и пойде вслед отроков Давидовых, и бысть ему в жену.
43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.
И Ахинааму поят Давид от Иезраеля, и бесте ему обе жены.
44 Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
Саул же даде Мелхолу дщерь свою жену Давидову Фалтию сыну Амисову иже от Роммы.
