Judges 13
1 Again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD, so He delivered them into the hand of the Philistines for forty years.
И приложиша еще сынове Израилевы творити зло пред Господем: и предаде я Господь в руку Филистимску четыредесять лет.
2 Now there was a man from Zorah named Manoah, from the clan of the Danites, whose wife was barren and had no children.
И бяше муж един от Сараи, от племене Данова, имя же ему Маное: и жена ему бяше неплоды и не раждаше.
3 The angel of the LORD appeared to the woman and said to her, “It is true that you are barren and have no children; but you will conceive and give birth to a son.
И явися Ангел Господень к жене и рече к ней: се, ты неплоды и не раждала еси, и зачнеши и родиши сына:
4 Now please be careful not to drink wine or strong drink, and not to eat anything unclean.
и ныне блюдися, и не пий вина и сикера, и не яждь всякаго нечистаго:
5 For behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son. And no razor shall come over his head, because the boy will be a Nazirite to God from the womb, and he will begin the deliverance of Israel from the hand of the Philistines.”
яко се, ты во утробе приимеши и родиши сына: и железо на главу его не взыдет, яко назорей Богови будет сие отроча от чрева: и сей начнет спасати Израиля из руки Филистимли.
6 So the woman went and told her husband, “A man of God came to me. His appearance was like the angel of God, exceedingly awesome. I did not ask him where he came from, and he did not tell me his name.
И вниде жена и рече мужу своему, глаголющи: человек Божий прииде ко мне, и образ его яко образ Ангела Божия, страшен зело: и вопрошах его, откуду еси? И имене своего не поведа ми,
7 But he said to me, ‘Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son. Now, therefore, do not drink wine or strong drink, and do not eat anything unclean, because the boy will be a Nazirite to God from the womb until the day of his death.’”
и рече мне: се, ты во утробе зачнеши и родиши сына: и ныне не пий вина, ни сикера, и не яждь всякаго нечистаго, яко назорей Богу будет отрочищь от утробы даже до дне смерти своея.
8 Then Manoah prayed to the LORD, “Please, O Lord, let the man of God You sent us come to us again to teach us how to raise the boy who is to be born.”
И помолися Маное ко Господу и рече: во мне, Господи, человек Божий, егоже послал еси, да приидет еще к нам и наставит ны, что сотворим отрочати раждающемуся.
9 And God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the angel of God returned to the woman as she was sitting in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her.
И послуша Бог молитвы Маноевы: и прииде паки Ангел Божий к жене, сия же седяше на селе, и Маное муж ея не бяше с нею.
10 The woman ran quickly to tell her husband, “Behold, the man who came to me the other day has reappeared!”
И потщася жена, и текши скоро поведа мужу своему, и рече к нему: се, явися мне муж, иже приходил в день он ко мне.
11 So Manoah got up and followed his wife. When he came to the man, he asked, “Are you the man who spoke to my wife?” “I am,” he said.
И востав иде Маное вслед жены своея, и прииде к мужу и рече ему: ты ли еси муж глаголавый к жене (моей)? И рече Ангел: аз.
12 Then Manoah asked, “When your words come to pass, what will be the boy’s rule of life and mission?”
И рече Маное: ныне убо да приидет слово твое, кий будет суд отрочате, и что дела его?
13 So the angel of the LORD answered Manoah, “Your wife is to do everything I told her.
И рече Ангел Господень к Маною: от всех, яже глаголах к жене, да сохранится:
14 She must not eat anything that comes from the vine, nor drink any wine or strong drink, nor eat anything unclean. She must do everything I have commanded her.”
от всего, еже исходит из винограда, да не яст, и вина и сикера да не пиет, и всякаго нечистаго да не яст: и вся, елика заповедах ей, да хранит.
15 “Please stay here,” Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “and we will prepare a young goat for you.”
И рече Маное ко Ангелу Господню: да удержим тя зде, и сотворим пред тобою козлище от коз.
16 And the angel of the LORD replied, “Even if I stay, I will not eat your food. But if you prepare a burnt offering, offer it to the LORD.” For Manoah did not know that it was the angel of the LORD.
И рече Ангел Господень к Маною: аще мя понудиши, не буду ясти хлеба твоего: но аще сотвориши всесожжение Господеви, то вознеси е. Не ведяше бо Маное, яко Ангел Господень той.
17 Then Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “What is your name, so that we may honor you when your word comes to pass?”
И рече Маное ко Ангелу Господню: что имя твое? Да егда сбудется слово твое, прославим тя.
18 “Why do you ask my name,” said the angel of the LORD, “since it is beyond comprehension?”
И рече ему Ангел Господень: почто сие вопрошаеши имене моего? И то есть чудно.
19 Then Manoah took a young goat and a grain offering and offered them on a rock to the LORD. And as Manoah and his wife looked on, the LORD did a marvelous thing.
И взя Маное козлища от коз и жертву, и вознесе на камень Господеви чудная творящему: Маное же и жена его зряста.
20 When the flame went up from the altar to the sky, the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame. When Manoah and his wife saw this, they fell facedown to the ground.
И бысть егда пламень взыде выше олтаря даже до небесе, и взыде Ангел Господень в пламени олтаря: Маное же и жена его смотряста, и падоста лицем своим на землю.
21 And when the angel of the LORD did not appear again to Manoah and his wife, Manoah realized that it had been the angel of the LORD.
И не приложи ктому Ангел Господень явитися Маною и жене его. Тогда уведе Маное, яко Ангел Господень есть.
22 “We are going to die,” he said to his wife, “for we have seen God!”
И рече Маное к жене своей: смертию умрем, яко Бога видехом.
23 But his wife replied, “If the LORD had intended to kill us, He would not have accepted the burnt offering and the grain offering from our hands, nor would He have shown us all these things or spoken to us this way.”
И рече ему жена его: аще бы хотел Господь умертвити нас, не бы взял от рук наших всесожжения и жертвы, и не бы показал нам сих всех, и не бы слышана сия сотворил нам якоже ныне.
24 So the woman gave birth to a son and named him Samson. The boy grew, and the LORD blessed him.
И роди жена сына, и нарече имя ему Сампсон. И возмужа отроча, и благослови е Господь:
25 And the Spirit of the LORD began to stir him at Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
и нача Дух Господень ходити с ним в полце Данове, посреде Сараи и посреде Есфаола.
