Книга Иисуса Навина 17

1 И быша пределы племене сынов Манассииных, яко сей первенец Иосифу, Махирови первенцу Манассиину, отцу Галаадову, (сей бо бысть муж храбр) в Галаадитиде и Васанитиде.

Now this lot fell to the tribe of Manasseh, since he is the firstborn of Joseph: to Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, who was a fighting man, and he had as a possession Gilead and Bashan;

2 И быша сыном Манассииным прочым по сонмом их: сыном Ахиезеровым и сыном Елековым и сыном Есриилевым, и сыном Сехемовым и сыном Семираеловым и сыном Оферовым: сии суть сынове Манассиины, сына Иосифова, мужеск пол по племеном своим.

and to the rest of the sons of Manasseh, according to their families: to the sons of Abiezer, and to the sons of Helek, and to the sons of Asriel, and to the sons of Shechem, and to the sons of Hepher, and to the sons of Shemida. These are the sons of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, the males, by their families.

3 И Салпааду сыну Оферову, сына Галаадова, сына Махирова, сына Манассиина, не быша сыны, но токмо дщери: и сия имена дщерем Салпаадовым: Маала и Нуа, и Егла и Мелха и Ферса.

Yet truly, Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, whose names are these: Mahlah and Noah and Hoglah and Milcah and Tirzah.

4 И сташа пред Елеазаром жерцем и пред Иисусом сыном Навиным и пред князи, глаголющя: Бог заповеда рукою Моисеовою дати нам наследие посреде братии нашея. И дадеся им наследие повелением Господним, жребий в братии отца их.

And they went before the sight of Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the leaders, saying: “The Lord instructed by the hand of Moses that a possession ought to be given to us, in the midst of our brothers.” And so, he gave to them, in accord with the order of the Lord, a possession in the midst of the brothers of their father.

5 И паде жребий Манассию поле лавеково кроме земли Галаадовы и Васани, яже есть об ону страну Иордана,

And by lot, there fell ten portions to Manasseh, aside from the land of Gilead and Bashan beyond the Jordan.

6 понеже дщери сынов Манассииных наследиша жребий посреде братий своих: земля же Галаадова бысть сыном Манассииным прочым.

And so the daughters of Manasseh possessed an inheritance in the midst of his sons. But the land of Gilead fell by lot to the sons of Manasseh that were left.

7 И быша пределы сынов Манассииных от Асир-Махфофа, и данаф, яже есть пред лицем Сихема, и идут пределы на Иамин и на Иасиф ко источнику Фаффоф.

And the border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which looks out toward Shechem. And it goes out, to the right, beside the inhabitants of the Fountain of Tappuah.

8 Манассию будет земля Фаффоф: и Фаффоф над пределы Манассииными сыном Ефремлим:

For by lot, there also fell to Manasseh the land of Tappuah, which is beside the borders of Manasseh, and which belongs to the sons of Ephraim.

9 и снидут пределы к дебри Кана на юг по дебри Иарим: Теревинф Ефрему посреде града Манассиина. И пределы Манассиины к северу на водотечь, и будет исход его море:

And the border descends to the Valley of Reeds, to the south of the torrent of the cities of Ephraim, which are in the midst of the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh is to the north of the torrent, and its exit extends to the sea.

10 от юга Ефрему, и к северу Манассии, и будет море предел им: и ко Асиру совокупятся к северу, и Иссахару от восток.

So it is that the possession of Ephraim is in the south, and that of Manasseh is in the north, and both are enclosed by the sea, and they are joined together by the tribe of Asher to the north, and by the tribe of Issachar to the east.

11 И будет Манассию (предел) между Иссахаром и между Асиром Вефсан и веси их, и Иевлаам и веси его, и живущыя в Доре и веси его, и живущыя в ендоре и веси его, и живущыя в Магедде и веси его, и живущыя в Танахе и веси его, и третия часть Нафефа и веси его.

And the inheritance of Manasseh, in Issachar and in Asher, was Bethshean and its villages, and Ibleam with its villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, with their towns, likewise the inhabitants of Endor with their villages, and similarly the inhabitants of Taanach with their villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo with their villages, and one third part of the city of Naphath.

12 И не возмогоша сынове Манассиины потребити градов сих: и нача Хананей жити в земли сей.

The sons of Manasseh were not able to overthrow these cities, and so the Canaanite began to dwell in their land.

13 И бысть егда укрепишася сынове Израилевы, и сотвориша Хананеов послушных, потреблением же не потребиша их.

But after the sons of Israel had grown strong, they subdued the Canaanites, and made them their tributaries, but they did not kill them.

14 Противореша же сынове Иосифовы Иисусу, глаголюще: почто наследствовал еси нас жребием единым и ужем единым? Аз же люд мног есмь, и благослови мя Бог (даже доселе).

And the sons of Joseph spoke to Joshua, and they said, “Why have you given to me as a possession one lot and one portion, while I am of such a great multitude, and the Lord has blessed me?”

15 И рече им Иисус: аще люд мног еси, взыди в дубраву и отреби себе тамо место в земли Ферезеа и Рафаима, аще утесняет тя гора Ефремля.

And Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up into the forest, and cut out space for yourself in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, since the possession of mount Ephraim is too narrow for you.”

16 И реша сынове Иосифовы: не доволно нам горы Ефремли: и конь преизбранный и железо всему Хананею живущему в земли емек, в Вефсане и в весех ея, и во юдоле Иезраель.

And the sons of Joseph responded to him: “We are not able to ascend to the mountains, since the Canaanites, who live in the plains, in which are situated Bethshean, with its villages, and Jezreel, possessing the middle of the valley, use chariots of iron.”

17 И рече Иисус к сыном Иосифовым, Ефрему и Манассию, глаголя: аще люд мног еси и силу велику имаши, не будет ти жребий един:

And Joshua said to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh: “You are a numerous people, and you have great strength. You shall not have only one lot.

18 зане дубрава будет тебе, понеже дубрава есть, и отребиши ю, и будет тебе, и концы ея, егда потребиши Хананеа, аще конь преизбранный ему есть: (и сам силен, ) ты бо пресилиши его.

Instead, you shall cross to the mountain, and you shall cut down and clear out for yourselves space in which to live. And you shall be able to advance further, when you will have destroyed the Canaanite, who, as you say, has iron chariots and is very strong.”
