< Вторая книга Царств 15 >

1 И бысть по сих, и сотвори себе Авессалом колесницы и кони и пятьдесят муж текущих пред ним:
And after this Absalom began to furnish himself with a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
2 и воставаше рано Авессалом, и стояше при самем пути врат: и бысть всяк муж, емуже бяше пря, прииде пред царя на суд, и возопи к нему Авессалом, и глаголаше ему: от коего града ты еси? И рече ему муж: от единаго колен Израилевых раб твой.
And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the road of the gate. Then when anyone had a dispute which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom would call to him and say, "What city are you from?" When he said, "Your servant is of one of the tribes of Israel,"
3 И рече к нему Авессалом: се, словеса твоя блага и удобна, но слушающаго несть ти от царя.
then Absalom would say to him, "Look, your matters are good and right; but there is no one from the king to hear you."
4 И рече Авессалом: кто мя поставит судию на земли, и ко мне приидет всяк муж имеяй прю и суд, и оправдаю его?
And Absalom would say, "Oh that I were made judge in the land, then anyone who had a dispute and a judgment could come to me, and I would give him justice."
5 И бысть егда приближашеся муж поклонитися ему, и простираше руку свою, и приимаше его, и целоваше его.
It was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he would extend his hand and embrace him, and kiss him.
6 И сотвори Авессалом по глаголу сему всему Израилю приходящым на суд к царю и приусвои Авессалом сердца сынов Израилевых.
Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
7 И бысть от конца четыредесяти лет, и рече Авессалом ко отцу своему: пойду ныне и воздам обеты моя, яже обещах Господу в Хевроне:
It happened at the end of four years, that Absalom said to the king, "Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to Jehovah, in Hebron.
8 зане обет обеща раб твой, егда жих в Гедсуре Сирийстем, глаголя: аще возвращая возвратит мя Господь во Иерусалим, и послужу Господу.
For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Aram, saying, 'If Jehovah will bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah in Hebron.'"
9 И рече ему царь: иди с миром. И востав иде в Хеврон.
The king said to him, "Go in peace." So he arose, and went to Hebron.
10 И посла Авессалом соглядатаи во вся колена Израилева, глаголя: егда услышите вы глас трубы рожаны, и рцыте: воцарися царь Авессалом в Хевроне.
But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, 'Absalom is king in Hebron.'"
11 И идоша со Авессаломом двести мужей от Иерусалима позвани: и идяху в простоте своей, и не разумеша всякаго глагола.
Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they did not know anything.
12 И посла Авессалом, и призва Ахитофела Галамонийскаго, советника Давидова, от града его Голамы, егда жряше жертвы. И бысть смятение крепко: и людий множество идущих со Авессаломом.
And he sent and invited Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. The conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.
13 И прииде вестник к Давиду, глаголя: бысть сердце мужей Израилевых со Авессаломом.
A messenger came to David, saying, "The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom."
14 И рече Давид всем отроком своим сущым с ним во Иерусалиме: востаните, и бежим, яко несть нам спасения от лица Авессаломля: ускорите ити, да не ускорит и возмет нас, и наведет на нас злобу, и избиет град острием меча.
David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, "Arise, and let us flee; for else none of us shall escape from Absalom. Make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil on us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword."
15 И реша отроцы царевы к царю: вся елика заповесть господь наш царь, се, мы отроцы твои.
The king's servants said to the king, "Look, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king chooses."
16 И изыде царь и весь дом его ногами своими, и остави царь десять жен подложниц своих хранити дом.
And the king went out with all his household following him. But the king left ten women, who were secondary wives, to take care of the palace.
17 И изыде царь и вси отроцы его пеши и сташа в Дому Сущем Далече:
So the king went out with all his servants following him, and they stopped at the last house.
18 и вси отроцы его от обою страну его идяху, и вси Хелефее и вси Фелефее и вси Гефее, шесть сот мужей шедше пеши от Гефа предидяху пред лицем царевым.
And all the people passed on before him. And all those with him, all the officers and warriors, were six hundred men, and they passed on before him. And when all the Cherethites and all the Pelethites and all the Gittites who followed him from Gath passed on before the king,
19 И рече царь ко Еффею Геффеину: почто и ты идеши с нами? Возвратися и живи с царем, яко чуждь еси ты, и яко преселился еси ты от места твоего:
then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, "Why do you also go with us? Return, and stay with the king; for you are a foreigner, and also an exile. Return to your own place.
20 аще вчера пришел еси, и днесь ли подвигну тя ити с нами? И аз иду, аможе пойду: иди и возвратися, и возврати братию твою с тобою, и Господь да сотворит с тобою милость и истину.
You came only yesterday. Should I today make you wander about with us, since I go I know not where? Go back, and take your brothers with you, and may Jehovah show you kindness and truth."
21 И отвеща Еффей к царю и рече: жив Господь, и жив господин мой царь, яко на месте, идеже будет господин мой царь, или в смерти, или в животе, тамо будет раб твой.
Ittai answered the king, and said, "As Jehovah lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will your servant be."
22 И рече царь ко Еффею: гряди, и прейди со мною. И прейде Еффей Геффеин и царь и вси отроцы его и весь народ иже с ним.
David said to Ittai, "Go and pass over." Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
23 И вся земля плакашеся гласом великим. И вси людие прехождаху по потоку Кедрску, и царь прейде чрез поток Кедрский, и вси людие и царь идяху к лицу пути пустыннаго.
And all the land wept aloud as all the people crossed over. And the king crossed the Wadi Kidron, and all the people passed before him on the Olive road into the wilderness.
24 И се, и Садок иерей и вси левити с ним, носяще кивот завета Господня от Вефары: и поставиша кивот Божий: и Авиафар взыде, дондеже престаша вси людие исходити из града.
Look, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people finished passing out of the city.
25 И рече царь к Садоку: возврати кивот Божий во град, и да станет на месте своем: аще обрящу благодать пред очима Господнима, и возвратит мя, и покажет ми его и лепоту его:
The king said to Zadok, "Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the eyes of Jehovah, he will bring me back and show me both it and his dwelling place;
26 и аще тако речет: не благоволих в тебе: се, аз есмь, да сотворит ми по благому пред очима Своима.
but if he should say, 'I have no delight in you;' look, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him."
27 И рече царь Садоку иерею: видите, ты возвращаешися во град с миром и Ахимаас сын твой и Ионафан сын Авиафаров, два сыны ваши с вами:
The king said also to Zadok the priest, "Aren't you a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
28 видите, аз вселяюся во аравоф пустынный, дондеже приидет ми слово от вас, еже возвестити ми.
Look, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me."
29 И возврати Садок и Авиафар кивот Божий во Иерусалим, и седе тамо.
Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem; and they stayed there.
30 И Давид восхождаше восходом на гору Елеонскую восходя и плачася, и покрыв главу свою, и сам идяше босыма ногама: и вси людие иже с ним покрыша кийждо главу свою, и восхождаху восходяще и плачущеся.
David went up by the Ascent of the Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot: and all the people who were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
31 И возвестиша Давиду глаголюще: и Ахитофел в мятежницех со Авессаломом. И рече Давид: разруши совет Ахитофелев, Господи, Боже мой.
And it had been told to David, saying, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." David said, "Jehovah, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness."
32 И бе Давид грядый даже до роса, идеже поклонися Богу. И се, на сретение ему (изыде) Хусий первый друг Давидов, растерзав ризы своя, и персть на главе его.
It happened that when David had come to the top, where God was worshiped, look, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and earth on his head.
33 И рече ему Давид: аще пойдеши со мною, и будеши ми в тягость:
David said to him, "If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
34 аще же возвратишися во град и речеши Авессалому: минуша братия твоя, и царь за мною мину отец твой, и ныне раб твой есмь, царю, пощади мя жива быти: раб бех отца твоего тогда и доселе, ныне же аз твой раб: и разруши ми совет Ахитофелев:
but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, 'Your brothers have left, O king, after your father left, and now I am your servant, O king. Allow me to live. As I have been your father's servant in the past, so now I am your servant,' then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
35 и се, с тобою тамо Садок и Авиафар иерее: и будет всяк глагол, егоже услышиши из уст царских, и скажеши Садоку и Авиафару иереем:
Do you not have Zadok and Abiathar the priests there with you? Therefore it shall be, that whatever thing you shall hear out of the king's house, you shall tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 се, тамо с ними два сына их, Ахимаас сын Садоков и Ионафан сын Авиафаров: и послите рукою их ко мне всяк глагол, егоже аще услышите.
Look, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son; and by them you shall send to me everything that you shall hear."
37 И вниде Хусий друг Давидов во град, и Авессалом тогда вхождаше во Иерусалим.
So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
