< Первая книга Царств 17 >

1 И собираша иноплеменницы полки своя на брань, и собрашася в Сокхофе Иудейстем, и ополчишася среде Сокхофа и среди Азика во Афесдоммине.
Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah in Ephesdammim.
2 Саул же и мужие Израилевы собрашася и ополчишася во удоли Теревинфа и устрояхуся на брань противу иноплеменником.
Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
3 И иноплеменницы стояху на горе отсюду особь, Израиль же стояше на горе отюнуду, и удоль между ими бяше.
The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4 И изыде муж силен из полка иноплеменнича, имя ему Голиаф от Гефа, высота его шесть лакот и пядь:
A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span went out.
5 и шлем медян на главе его, и в броню кольчату той оболчен бяше: и вес брони его пять тысящ сикль меди и железа:
He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he wore a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of bronze.
6 и поножы медяны верху голений его, и щит медян на плещах его:
He had bronze shin armour on his legs and a bronze javelin between his shoulders.
7 и ратовище копия его аки орудие ткущих, и копие его шесть сот сикль железа: и носяй оружие его идяше пред ним.
The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. His shield bearer went before him.
8 И ста и возопи пред полки Израилевыми и рече им: почто изыдосте, ополчитися ли на брань противу нам? Несмь ли аз иноплеменник, вы же Еврее Сауловы? Изберите себе мужа, и да снидет ко мне:
He stood and cried to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
9 и аще возможет со мною братися и одолеет ми, будем вам раби: аще же аз возмогу одолети ему, будете вы нам раби и поработаете нам.
If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.”
10 И рече иноплеменник: се, аз днесь уничижих полк Израилев в сей день: дадите ми мужа, иже поборется со мною един.
The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today! Give me a man, that we may fight together!”
11 И слыша Саул и весь Израиль глаголы иноплеменничи сия и ужасошася и убояшася зело.
When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
12 Давид же Ефрафеев, сей бе от Вифлеема Иудина, имя же отцу его Иессей, емуже бе осмь сынов. Во дни же Сауловы бе муж той состареся в мужех.
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. The man was an elderly old man in the days of Saul.
13 И идоша три сыны Иессеевы старейшии на брань с Саулом: имена же сынов его пошедших на брань, Елиав первородный его, и вторый Аминадав, и третий Самма.
The three oldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
14 Давид же бе юнейший, и три болшии его идоша вслед Саула.
David was the youngest; and the three oldest followed Saul.
15 Давид же возвратився от Саула, отиде пасти овцы отца своего в Вифлеем.
Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.
16 И прихождаше иноплеменник утро и в вечер, являяся пред Израилем четыредесять дний.
The Philistine came near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
17 И рече Иессей Давиду сыну своему: возми убо братиям твоим меру ефи муки и десять хлеб сих, и иди в полк, и даждь братиям твоим:
Jesse said to David his son, “Now take for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers;
18 и десять сыров от млека сего, и даждь тысящнику: и братию свою посети в мире, и еликих аще требуют, увеси, субботствовати же будеши со мною.
and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand; and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news.”
19 Саул же и вси людие бяху во удоли дуба ратующеся со иноплеменники.
Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
20 И воста Давид рано, овцы же остави со стражею, и взя, и отиде, якоже заповеда ему отец его Иессей: и прииде на место, идеже исхождаху сильнии на брань и вопияху в полцех.
David rose up early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper, and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him. He came to the place of the wagons as the army which was going out to the fight shouted for the battle.
21 Занеже вооружашеся Израиль противу иноплеменником, и иноплеменницы вооружахуся противу Израиля.
Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, army against army.
22 И положи Давид бремя свое в руках стража, и тече в полк, и пришед вопроси братию свою в мире.
David left his baggage in the hand of the keeper of the baggage and ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers.
23 Глаголющу же ему с ними, и се, муж месейский, емуже имя Голиаф, Филистимлянин от Гефы, изыде от полков иноплеменничих и глагола по словесем сим, и услыша Давид.
As he talked with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came up out of the ranks of the Philistines, and said the same words; and David heard them.
24 И вси мужие Израилевы егда увидеша мужа, и бежаша от лица его и убояшася зело.
All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were terrified.
25 И реша мужие Израилтестии: видесте ли мужа сего восходяща, яко поносити Израиля прииде? И аще будет муж, иже убиет его, обогатит его царь богатством велиим, и дщерь свою даст ему, и дом отца его сотворит свободен во Израили.
The men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house tax-free in Israel.”
26 И рече Давид к мужем стоящым с ним, глаголя: что сотворите мужу, иже убиет иноплеменника онаго и отимет поношение от Израиля? Яко кто есть иноплеменник необрезанный сей, иже поносит полку Бога живаго?
David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”
27 И рекоша ему людие по словеси сему, глаголюще: тако сотворится мужу, иже убиет его.
The people answered him in this way, saying, “So shall it be done to the man who kills him.”
28 И услыша Елиав брат его болший, внегда глаголати ему к мужем: и разгневася яростию Елиав на Давида и рече: почто семо пришел еси? И кому оставил еси малыя овцы оны в пустыни? Вем аз гордость твою и злобу сердца твоего, яко видения ради брани пришел еси.
Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger burnt against David, and he said, “Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the evil of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle.”
29 И рече Давид: что сотворих ныне? Несть ли речь?
David said, “What have I now done? Is there not a cause?”
30 И отвратися от него ко иному и рече по словеси сему. И отвещаша ему людие по словеси прежнему.
He turned away from him towards another, and spoke like that again; and the people answered him again the same way.
31 И слышаны быша глаголы, ихже глагола Давид, и возвестиша пред Саулом: и пояша его людие и приведоша его пред Саула.
When the words were heard which David spoke, they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him.
32 И рече Давид к Саулу: да не ужасается сердце господину моему о сем, раб твой пойдет и поборется со иноплеменником сим.
David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
33 И рече Саул к Давиду: не возможеши пойти ко иноплеменнику сему братися с ним, яко ты детищь еси, сей же муж борец есть от юности своея.
Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”
34 И рече Давид к Саулу: егда пасяше раб твой отца своего стадо, и егда прихождаше лев или медведица и восхищаше от стада овцу едину:
David said to Saul, “Your servant was keeping his father’s sheep; and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,
35 и аз вслед его исхождах и поражах его, и исторгах из уст его (взятое): и аще воспротивляшеся ми, то взем за гортань его, поражах и умерщвлях его:
I went out after him, struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, struck him, and killed him.
36 и льва и медведицу бияше раб твой, и будет иноплеменник необрезанный сей яко един от сих: не поиду ли, и поражу его, и отиму днесь поношение от Израиля? Понеже кто необрезанный сей, иже уничижи полк Бога жива?
Your servant struck both the lion and the bear. This uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.”
37 И рече Давид: Господь иже изят мя от руки львовы и от руки медведицы, той измет мя от руки иноплеменника сего необрезаннаго. И рече Саул к Давиду: иди, и да будет Господь с тобою.
David said, “The LORD, who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.” Saul said to David, “Go! The LORD will be with you.”
38 И облече Саул Давида одеждею, и шлем медян возложи на главу его,
Saul dressed David with his clothing. He put a helmet of bronze on his head, and he clad him with a coat of mail.
39 и препояса Давида оружием своим верху одежды его. Давид же походив (во оружии) семо и овамо, утрудися, яко не обыче. И рече Давид Саулу: не могу ити в сих, яко не обыкох. И взяша от него сия.
David strapped his sword on his clothing and he tried to move, for he had not tested it. David said to Saul, “I can’t go with these, for I have not tested them.” Then David took them off.
40 И взя палицу свою в руку свою, и избра себе пять камений гладких от потока, и вложи я в тоболец пастырский егоже ношаше, и пращу свою имый в руце своей, и иде к мужу иноплеменнику.
He took his staff in his hand, and chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the pouch of his shepherd’s bag which he had. His sling was in his hand; and he came near to the Philistine.
41 И идяше иноплеменник приближаяся к Давиду, и носяй оружие его пред ним (идяше).
The Philistine walked and came near to David; and the man who bore the shield went before him.
42 И виде Голиаф иноплеменник Давида и обезчествова его, зане той детищь бе, и чермен и леп очима.
When the Philistine looked around and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and had a good looking face.
43 И рече иноплеменник к Давиду: еда пес аз есмь, яко ты идеши противу мене с палицею и камением? И рече Давид: ни, но и хуждший пса. И прокля иноплеменник Давида боги своими.
The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” The Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 И рече иноплеменник к Давиду: гряди ко мне, и дам плоть твою птицам небесным и зверем земным.
The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky and to the animals of the field.”
45 И рече Давид иноплеменнику: ты идеши на мя с мечем и с копием и щитом, аз же иду на тя во имя Господа Бога Саваофа, Бога ополчения Израилева, егоже ты уничижил еси днесь:
Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of the LORD of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
46 и предаст тя Господь днесь в руце мои, и убию тя, и отиму главу твою от тебе, и дам тело твое и телеса полка иноплеменнича в день сей птицам небесным и зверем земным: и уразумеет вся земля, яко есть Господь Бог во Израили,
Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines today to the birds of the sky and to the wild animals of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
47 и уразумеет весь сонм сей, яко не мечем ни копием спасает Господь, яко Господня брань, и предаст Господь вас в руки нашя.
and that all this assembly may know that the LORD doesn’t save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hand.”
48 И воста иноплеменник и иде во сретение Давиду. И ускори Давид и тече на сражение во сретение иноплеменнику.
When the Philistine arose, and walked and came near to meet David, David hurried and ran towards the army to meet the Philistine.
49 И простре Давид руку свою в тоболец, и изя из него камень един, (и вложи в пращу, ) и верже пращею, и порази иноплеменника в чело его, и унзе камень под шлемом его в чело его, и паде (Голиаф) на лицы своем на землю.
David put his hand in his bag, took a stone and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth.
50 И укрепися Давид над иноплеменником пращею и каменем, и порази иноплеменника, и умертви его: оружия же не бе в руце Давидове.
So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David’s hand.
51 И тече скоро Давид, и ста над ним, и взя мечь его, и извлече его от недр его, и умертви его, и отсече им главу его. И видеша иноплеменницы, яко умре сильный их, и бежаша.
Then David ran, stood over the Philistine, took his sword, drew it out of its sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
52 И восташа мужие Израилевы и Иудины и воскликнуша, и погнаша созади их даже до входа Гефова и до врат Аскалонских: и падоша уязвленни (мнози) иноплеменницы по пути врат и даже до Гефа и Аккарона.
The men of Israel and of Judah arose and shouted, and pursued the Philistines as far as Gai and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath and to Ekron.
53 И возвратишася мужие Израилевы гнавшии вслед иноплеменник, и потопташа полки их.
The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.
54 И взя Давид главу иноплеменника и внесе ю во Иерусалим, и оружие его положи во храмине своей.
David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armour in his tent.
55 И егда виде Саул Давида исходяща во сретение иноплеменника, рече ко Авениру князю силы: чий есть сын юноша сей, Авенире? И рече Авенир: да живет душа твоя, царю, яко не вем.
When Saul saw David go out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, “Abner, whose son is this youth?” Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I can’t tell.”
56 И рече царь: вопроси убо ты, чий есть сын юноша сей?
The king said, “Enquire whose son the young man is!”
57 Егда же возвратися Давид по убиении иноплеменника, взя его Авенир и приведе его пред Саула: глава же иноплеменнича бе в руце его.
As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 И рече к нему Саул: чий еси сын, юноше? И рече Давид: сын раба твоего Иессеа от Вифлеема.
Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, you young man?” David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”
