Вторая книга Царств 15
1 И бысть по сих, и сотвори себе Авессалом колесницы и кони и пятьдесят муж текущих пред ним:
It came about after this that Absalom prepared a chariot and horses for himself, with 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.
Absalom would get up early and stand beside the road leading to the city gate. When any man had a dispute to come to the king for judgment, Absalom called to him and said, “From what city have you come?” Then the man would answer, “Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.”
3 И рече к нему Авессалом: се, словеса твоя блага и удобна, но слушающаго несть ти от царя.
So Absalom would say to him, “Look, your case is good and right, but there is no one empowered by the king to hear your case.”
4 И рече Авессалом: кто мя поставит судию на земли, и ко мне приидет всяк муж имеяй прю и суд, и оправдаю его?
Absalom added, “I wish that I were made judge in the land, so that every man who had any dispute or cause might come to me, and I would bring him justice!”
5 И бысть егда приближашеся муж поклонитися ему, и простираше руку свою, и приимаше его, и целоваше его.
So it came about that when any man came to Absalom to honor him, Absalom would put out his hand and take hold of 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 acted in this way 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 came about at the end of four years that Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay a vow that I have made to Yahweh 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 made a vow while I was living at Geshur in Aram, saying,' If Yahweh will indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will worship Yahweh.'”
9 И рече ему царь: иди с миром. И востав иде в Хеврон.
So the king said to him, “Go in peace.” So Absalom 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 then Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you must 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.
With Absalom went two hundred men from Jerusalem, who were invited. They went in their innocence, not knowing anything that Absalom had planned.
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.
While Absalom offered sacrfices, he sent for Ahithophel from his hometown of Giloh. He was David's counselor. Absalom's conspiracy was strong, for the people following Absalom were constantly increasing.
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 following 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.
So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise and let us flee, or none of us will escape from Absalom. Prepare to leave immediately, or he will quickly overtake us, and he will bring down disaster on us and attack 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 our master the king decides.”
16 И изыде царь и весь дом его ногами своими, и остави царь десять жен подложниц своих хранити дом.
The king left and all his family after him, but the king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the palace.
17 И изыде царь и вси отроцы его пеши и сташа в Дому Сущем Далече:
After the king went out and all the people after him, 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.
All his army marched with him, and before him went all the Kerethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites—six hundred men who had followed him from Gath.
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 will you come with us? Return and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and 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.
Since you just left yesterday, why should I make you wander all over with us? I do not even know where I am going. So return and take your fellow countrymen back. May loyalty and faithfulness go with you.”
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.
But Ittai answered the king and said, “As Yahweh lives, and as my master the king lives, surely in whatever place where my master the king goes, there also will your servant go, whether that means living or dying.”
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.
So David said to Ittai, “Go ahead and continue with us.” So Ittai the Gittite marched with the king, along with all his men and all the families 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.
All the country wept with a loud voice as all the people passed by over the Kidron Valley, and as the king also himself crossed over. All the people traveled on the road toward 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.
Even Zadok with all the Levites, carrying the ark of the covenant of God, were present. They set the ark of God down, and then Abiathar joined them. They waited until all the people had passed by 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, “Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of Yahweh, he will bring me back here and show me again the ark and the place where he lives.
26 и аще тако речет: не благоволих в тебе: се, аз есмь, да сотворит ми по благому пред очима Своима.
But if he says, 'I am not pleased with you,' look, here am I, let him do to me whatever 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 also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan son of Abiathar.
28 видите, аз вселяюся во аравоф пустынный, дондеже приидет ми слово от вас, еже возвестити ми.
See, I will wait at the fords of the Arabah until word comes from you to inform me.”
29 И возврати Садок и Авиафар кивот Божий во Иерусалим, и седе тамо.
So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back into 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.
But David ascended barefoot and weeping up the Mount of Olives, and he had his head covered. Every man of the people who were with him covered his head, and they went up weeping as they walked.
31 И возвестиша Давиду глаголюще: и Ахитофел в мятежницех со Авессаломом. И рече Давид: разруши совет Ахитофелев, Господи, Боже мой.
Someone told David saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” So David prayed, “O Yahweh, please turn Ahithophel's advice 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 came about that when David arrived at the top of the road, where God used to be worshiped, Hushai the Arkite 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 travel 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 say to Absalom, 'I will be your servant, king, as I have been your father's servant in time past, so will I now be your servant,' then you will confuse Ahithophel's advice for me.
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:
Will you not have the priests Zadok and Abiathar with you? So whatever you hear in the king's palace, you must 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.
See that they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. You must send to me by their hand everything that you hear.”
37 И вниде Хусий друг Давидов во град, и Авессалом тогда вхождаше во Иерусалим.
So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city as Absalom arrived and entered into Jerusalem.
