Вторая книга Паралипоменон 11
1 Прииде же Ровоам во Иерусалим, и созва (весь) дом Иудин и Вениаминь, сто осмьдесят тысящ избранных юношей творящих брань, и воеваше противу Израиля и Иеровоама, да обратит к себе царство.
And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
2 И бысть слово Господне к Самею человеку Божию, глаголя:
But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 глаголи к Ровоаму сыну Соломоню, царю Иудину, и ко всему Израилю, иже есть во Иуде и Вениамине:
Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 сия рече Господь: не восходите, ниже ополчайтеся противу братии вашея: возвратитеся кийждо в дом свой, зане от Мене бысть глаголгол сей. И послушаша слова Господня, и возвратишася, и не поидоша противу Иеровоама.
Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house; for this thing is of me. So they hearkened unto the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 Обита же Ровоам во Иерусалиме и созда грады стенаты во Иудеи:
And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
6 сострои же Вифлеем и Етам, и Фекуе
He built even Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
7 и Вефсур, и Сокхоф и Одоллам,
And Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
8 и Геф и Марисан, и Зиф
and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9 и Адурем, и Лахис и Азику,
and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10 и Салаю и Елон и Хеврон, иже есть Иудин и Вениаминь, грады крепкия:
and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fenced cities.
11 и укрепи их стенами, и постави в них началники, житохранилища, и елей и вино,
And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and oil and wine.
12 во всяцем граде щиты и копия, и укрепи их во множестве зело, и быста под ним Иуда и Вениамин.
And in every several city [he put] shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong. And Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
13 Священницы же и левиты, иже бяху во всем Израили, собрашася к нему от всех предел:
And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
14 яко оставиша левити селения одержания своего и поидоша ко Иуде во Иерусалим, понеже изгна их Иеровоам и сынове его, еже не служити Господеви:
For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest’s office unto the LORD:
15 и постави себе жерцы на высоких, и идолом, и суетным, и телцем, ихже сотвори Иеровоам.
and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the he-goats, and for the calves which he had made.
16 И изгна их от всех колен Израилевых, иже вдаша сердце свое, да взыщут Господа Бога Израилева: и приидоша во Иерусалим пожрети Господу Богу отец своих:
And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto the LORD, the God of their fathers.
17 и укрепиша царство Иудино. И укрепися Ровоам сын Соломонь в три лета, хождаше бо по путем Давида и Соломона отца своего лета три.
So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years: for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
18 И взя себе Ровоам жену Моолафу, дщерь Иеримофа сына Давидова, и Авигею дщерь Елиава сына Иессеова.
And Rehoboam took him a wife; Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
19 И роди ему сыны: Иеуса и Самориа и Заама.
and she bare him sons; Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 По сих же поя себе Мааху дщерь Авессаломлю, и роди ему Авию и Иеффиа, и Зизу и Салимофа.
And after her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
21 И возлюби Ровоам Мааху дщерь Авессаломлю паче всех жен своих и подложниц своих, яко жен осмьнадесять име и подложниц шестьдесят: и роди двадесять осмь сынов и шестьдесят дщерей.
And Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines, and begat twenty and eight sons and threescore daughters.)
22 И постави в началника Ровоам Авию сына Маахина и князем над всею братиею его, того бо и царем сотворити помышляше.
And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, [even] the prince among his brethren: for [he was minded] to make him king.
23 И возрасте паче всех братий своих во всех пределех Иудиных и Вениаминих и во градех крепких, и даде им пищи множество много, и многих взыска жен.
And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fenced city: and he gave them victual in abundance. And he sought [for them] many wives.
