Jeremiah 40
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains amongst all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were carried away captive to Babylon.
Слово бывшее ко Иеремии от Господа, повнегда отпусти его Навузардан архимагир из Рамы, егда взя его связанаго путы от среды, от Иерусалима и от Иуды преселения, ведомых в Вавилон.
2 The captain of the guard took Jeremiah and said to him, “The LORD your God pronounced this evil on this place;
И взя его архимагир и рече ему: Господь Бог твой соглаголал есть злая сия на место сие:
3 and the LORD has brought it, and done according as he spoke. Because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing has come on you.
и приведе, и сотвори Господь, якоже рече, зане согрешисте Ему и не послушасте гласа Его, и бысть вам глагол сей.
4 Now, behold, I release you today from the chains which are on your hand. If it seems good to you to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will take care of you; but if it seems bad to you to come with me into Babylon, don’t. Behold, all the land is before you. Where it seems good and right to you to go, go there.”
И се, ныне разреших тя от уз, яже на руку твоею: аще ти есть добро ити со мною в Вавилон, поиди, и положу очи мои на тя: аще же ни, остани зде: се, вся земля пред лицем твоим есть: что изволиши, и аможе восхощеши ити, тамо иди:
5 Now while he had not yet gone back, “Go back then,” he said, “to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him amongst the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go.” So the captain of the guard gave him food and a present, and let him go.
и возвратися ко Годолии, сыну Ахикамову, сыну Сафаню, егоже постави царь Вавилонский в земли Иудине, и живи с ним среде людий, во всех благих пред очима твоима, еже ходити, и ходи. И даде ему архимагир пищу и дары и отпусти его.
6 Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and lived with him amongst the people who were left in the land.
И прииде Иеремиа ко Годолии сыну Ахмикамову в Массифаф и седе среде людий своих оставшихся на земли.
7 Now when all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, women, children, and of the poorest of the land, of those who were not carried away captive to Babylon,
И егда услышаша вси воеводы силы яже на селе, тии и силы их, яко поставил есть царь Вавилонский Годолию сына Ахикамова (властелина) над землею, и яко предаде ему мужы и жены и дети, и от убогих земли, иже не преведени быша в Вавилон:
8 then Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Yochanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men came to Gedaliah to Mizpah.
приидоша ко Годолии в Массифаф Исмаил сын Нафаниин и Иоанан, и Ионафан сын Кариев и Сареа сын Фанаемефов, и сынове Офи, иже беша из Нетофафы, и Иезониа сын Махафы, тии и мужие их.
9 Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore to them and to their men, saying, “Don’t be afraid to serve the Kasdim. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it will be well with you.
И клятся им Годолиа и мужем их, глаголя: не убойтеся от лица отрок Халдейских: вселитеся на земли и служите царю Вавилонску, и лучше вам будет:
10 As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Kasdim who will come to us; but you, gather wine and summer fruits and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that you have taken.”
и се, аз сежу в Массифафе, стати противу лицу Халдейску, иже аще приидут на вас: вы же соберите вино и овощь, и соберите масло, и влийте в сосуды своя, и вселитеся во грады, яже удержасте.
11 Likewise when all the Jews who were in Moab, and amongst the children of Ammon, and in Edom, and who were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan,
И вси Иудее, иже в земли Моавли и в сынех Аммоних, и иже во Идумеи и иже во всей земли, услышаша, яко дал есть царь Вавилонский останок во Иуде и яко поставил есть над ними Годолию сына Ахикамова, сына Сафанова.
12 then all the Jews returned out of all places where they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and gathered very much wine and summer fruits.
И приидоша вси Иудее от всех мест, в няже бяху убегли, и приидоша ко Годолии в землю Иудину в Массифаф, и собраша вино и овощь и масло много зело.
13 Moreover Yochanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
Иоанан же сын Кариев и вси воеводы силы, иже на селех, приидоша ко Годолии в Массифаф
14 and said to him, “Do you know that Baalis the king of the children of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take your life?” But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam didn’t believe them.
и рекоша ему: веси ли, яко Велиса царь сынов Аммоних посла к тебе Исмаила сына Нафаниева поразити душу твою? И не верова им Годолиа сын Ахикамль.
15 Then Yochanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, “Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man will know it. Why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?”
Иоанан же сын Кариев рече ко Годолии отай в Массифафе, глаголя: да иду убо и побию Исмаила, сына Нафаниина: и никтоже да увесть, да не како поразит душу твою, и разсыплется весь Иуда собраный к тебе, и погибнет останок Иудин.
16 But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said to Yochanan the son of Kareah, “You shall not do this thing, for you speak falsely of Ishmael.”
И рече Годолиа ко Иоанану сыну Кариеву: не сотвори дела сего, яко лжу ты глаголеши на Исмаила.
