1 Сын единаго лета Саул, егда нача царствовати, и два лета царствова над Израилем.
And Saul chooses for himself three thousand men of the men of Israel: and there were with Saul two thousand who were in Machmas, and in mount Baethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gabaa of Benjamin: and he sent the rest of the people every man to his tent.
2 И избра себе Саул три тысящы мужей от мужей Израилевых, и быша с Саулом две тысящы в Махмасе и в горе Вефили, и тысяща беша со Ионафаном в Гаваи Вениаминове: и останок людий отпусти коегождо во своя селения.
3 И порази Ионафан насива иноплеменника иже в холме. И услышаша иноплеменницы, и Саул воструби трубою во всю землю, глаголя: отвергошася раби.
And Jonathan struck Nasib the Philistine that lived in the hill; and the Philistines hear of it, and Saul sounds the trumpet through all the land, saying, The servants have despised [us].
4 И слыша весь Израиль глаголющих, яко порази Саул насива иноплеменника, и омерзе Израиль во иноплеменницех. И собрашася людие вслед Саула в Галгалех.
And all Israel heard say, Saul has struck Nasib the Philistine; now Israel had been put to shame before the Philistines; and the children of Israel went up after Saul in Galgala.
5 И иноплеменницы собрашася на брань на Израиля: и приидоша на Израиля тридесять тысящ колесниц и шесть тысящ конник и множество людий, яко песок иже при мори: и шедше ополчишася в Махмасе противу Вефорону на юг.
And the Philistines gather together to war with Israel; and then come up against Israel thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand by the seashore for multitude: and they come up, and encamp in Machmas, opposite Baethoron southward.
6 И видеша мужие Израилевы, яко не могоша противу стати, и скрышася людие в вертепех и в оградех и в камениих и в пропастех и во рвах:
And the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait so that they could not draw near, and the people hid themselves in caves, and sheepfolds, and rocks, and ditches, and pits.
7 и преходяще преидоша Иордан в землю Гадову и Галаадску. И Саул бяше еще в Галгалех, и вси людие ужасошася, иже бяху с ним.
And they that went over went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Galaad: and Saul was yet in Galgala, and all the people followed after him in amazement.
8 И ждаше седмь дний по свидетелству, якоже рече Самуил, и не прииде Самуил в Галгалы: и разсеяшася людие его от него.
And he continued seven days for the appointed testimony, as Samuel told him, and Samuel came not to Galgala, and his people were dispersed from him.
9 И рече Саул: приведите, яко да сотворю всесожжение и мирная. И вознесе всесожжение.
And Saul said, Bring hither [victims], that I may offer whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings: and he offered the whole burnt offering.
10 И бысть егда соверши вознося всесожжение, и се, Самуил прииде: и Саул изыде на сретение ему благословитися им.
And it came to pass when he had finished offering the whole burnt offering, that Samuel arrived, and Saul went out to meet him, [and] to bless him.
11 И рече Самуил: что сотворил еси? И рече Саул: видех, яко отидоша людие от мене, и ты не пришел еси, якоже определил еси свидетелством дний, иноплеменницы же собрашася в Махмас,
And Samuel said, What have you done? and Saul said, Because I saw how the people were scattered from me, and you was not present as you purposed according to the set time of the days, and the Philistines were gathered to Machmas.
12 и рех: ныне приидут иноплеменницы ко мне в Галгалы, и лица Господня не умолих: и не удержахся, и вознесох всесожжение.
Then I said, Now will the Philistines come down to me to Galgala, and I have not sought the face of the Lord: so I forced myself and offered the whole burnt offering.
13 И рече Самуил к Саулу: безумие бысть тебе, понеже не сохранил еси заповеди моея, юже заповеда ти Господь: яко ныне уготовал бы Господь царство твое во Израили до века:
And Samuel said to Saul, You have done foolishly; for you have not kept my command, which the Lord commanded you, as now the Lord would have confirmed your kingdom over Israel for ever.
14 и ныне царство твое не станет тебе, и изыщет Господь Себе человека по сердцу Своему, и повелит ему Господь властелину быти над людьми Своими, яко не сохранил еси, елика заповеда тебе Господь.
But now your kingdom shall not stand to you, and the Lord shall seek for himself a man after his own heart; and the Lord shall appoint him to be a ruler over his people, because you have not kept all that the Lord commanded you.
15 И воста Самуил и иде от Галгал в путь свой: и останок людий идоша вслед Саула на сретение людем ратным. Имже приходящым от Галгал в Гаваю Вениаминову, и сочте Саул люди обретшыяся с ним яко шесть сот мужей.
And Samuel arose, and departed from Galgala, and the remnant of the people went after Saul to meet [him] after the men of war, when they had come out of Galgala to Gabaa of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were found with him, about six hundred men.
16 Саул же и Ионафан сын его и людие обретшиися с ними седоша в Гаваи Вениаминове и плакашася: иноплеменницы же ополчишася в Махмасе.
And Saul and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with them, halted in Gabaa, of Benjamin; and they wept: and the Philistines had encamped in Machmas.
17 И изыдоша губящии от села иноплеменников тремя началы: начало едино зрящее путь Гофера на землю Совалю:
And men came forth to destroy out of the land of the Philistines in three companies; one company turning by the way of Gophera toward the land of Sogal,
18 и начало едино зрящее путь Вефоронь: и начало едино зрящее путь Гаваи, клонящийся к Гаисавим пустыни.
and another company turning the way of Baethoron, and another company turning by the way of Gabae that turns aside to Gai of Sabim.
19 И ковачь железа не обреташеся во всей земли Израилеве, яко реша иноплеменницы, да не сотворят Еврее меча и копия.
And there was not found a smith in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make themselves sword or spear.
20 И хождаху вси сынове Израилевы в землю иноплеменничу ковати кийждо своя косы и орудия своя, и кийждо секиры своя и серпы своя.
And all Israel went down to the Land of the Philistines to forge every one his reaping-hook and his tool, and every one his axe and his sickle.
21 И притупишася вся орудия приспевшей жатве, секиры и серпы, поправления же има не бысть.
And it was near the time of vintage: and their tools were [valued at] three shekels for a plowshare, and there was the same rate for the axe and the sickle.
22 И бысть во дни брани Махмасския, и не обретеся меча и копия в руках всех людий, иже с Саулом и со Ионафаном: точию у Саула и Ионафана сына его.
And it came to pass in the days of the war of Machmas, that there was not a sword or spear found in the hand of all the people, that were with Saul and Jonathan; but with Saul and Jonathan his son was there found.
23 И изыдоша от стана иноплеменнича об ону страну Махмаса.
And there went out some from the camp of the Philistines to the place beyond Machmas.
