1 Samuel 20
1 And David went in flight from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and said, What have I done? What is my crime and my sin against your father that he is attempting to take my life?
И отбеже Давид от Навафа (иже) в Раме и прииде ко Ионафану и рече: что сотворих? И что неправда моя? И что согреших пред отцем твоим, яко ищет души моея?
2 And he said to him, Far be the thought: you will not be put to death: see, my father does nothing, great or small, without giving me word of it: would he keep this secret from me? It is not so.
И рече ему Ионафан: никакоже, ты не умреши: се, не имать сотворити отец мой глагола велика, или мала, и не открыет уха моего: и что яко скрыет отец мой глагол сей от мене? Не буди сие.
3 But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death.
И отвеща Давид Ионафану и рече: ведая ведает отец твой, яко обретох благодать пред очима твоима, и глаголет: да не познает сего Ионафан, негли не восхощет: но жив Господь и жива душа твоя, зане якоже рекох, исполнися между мною и между отцем твоим даже до смерти.
4 Then Jonathan said to David, Whatever your desire is, I will do it for you.
И рече паки Ионафан к Давиду: чесого желает душа твоя, и что сотворю тебе?
5 And David said to Jonathan, Tomorrow is the new moon, and I will not be seated with the king at his table: but let me go to a safe place in the country till the evening.
И рече Давид ко Ионафану: се, новомесячие заутра, и аз седя не сяду с царем ясти, и послеши мя, и скрыюся на поли до вечера дне третияго:
6 And if your father takes note of the fact that I am away, say, David made a request to me for himself that he might go to Beth-lehem, to his town: for it is the time when his family make their offering year by year.
и аще смотря усмотрит мя отец твой, и речеши: прося упросися от мене Давид отити до Вифлеема града своего, яко жертва дний тамо всему племени:
7 If he says, It is well, your servant will be at peace: but if he is angry, then it will be clear to you that he has an evil purpose in mind against me.
аще тако речет: благо: мир рабу твоему: аще же жестоко отвещает тебе, разумей, яко совершися злоба от него:
8 So, then, be kind to your servant; for you have been united with your servant in an agreement made before the Lord: but if there is any wrongdoing in me, put me to death yourself; why take me to your father?
и да сотвориши милость с рабом твоим, яко ввел еси в завет Господень раба твоего с собою: и аще есть неправда в рабе твоем, умертви мя ты, а ко отцу твоему почто тако имаши мя вводити?
9 And Jonathan said, Do not have such a thought: for if I saw that my father was designing evil against you, would I not give you word of it?
И рече Ионафан: никакоже (буди) тебе: егда аще разумевая уразумею, яко совершися злоба отца моего, еже приити на тебе, аще и не будеши во градех твоих, аз возвещу тебе.
10 Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer?
И рече Давид ко Ионафану: кто возвестит ми, аще отвещает отец твой жестоко?
11 And Jonathan said to David, Come, let us go out into the country. And the two of them went out together into the open country.
И рече Ионафан к Давиду: иди, и пребуди на поли. И идоста оба на поле.
12 And Jonathan said to David, May the Lord, the God of Israel, be witness; when I have had a chance of talking to my father, about this time tomorrow, if his feelings to David are good, will I not send and give you the news?
И рече Ионафан к Давиду: Господь Бог Израилев весть, яко искушу отца моего во время (сие) заутра, или третияго дне, и сие, аще благо будет о Давиде, и не имам послати к тебе на поле и возвестити сия во ушы твои:
13 May the Lord's punishment be on Jonathan, if it is my father's pleasure to do you evil and I do not give you word of it and send you away so that you may go in peace: and may the Lord be with you, as he has been with my father.
сия да сотворит Бог Ионафану и сия да приложит, аще не возвещу злая на тя, и открыю ухо твое, и отпущу тя, и отидеши в мире: и будет Господь с тобою, якоже бе со отцем моим:
14 And may you, while I am still living, O may you be kind to me, as the Lord is kind, and keep me from death!
и аще убо еще жив буду аз, да сотвориши милость со мною:
15 And let not your mercy ever be cut off from my family, even when the Lord has sent destruction on all David's haters, cutting them off from the face of the earth.
и аще смертию умру, да не отимеши милости твоея от дому моего до века:
16 And if it comes about that the name of Jonathan is cut off from the family of David, the Lord will make David responsible.
аще же ни, егда искоренит Господь враги Давидовы, коегождо от лица земли, да обрящется имя Ионафане в дому Давидове, и изыщет Господь враги Давидовы.
17 And Jonathan again took an oath to David, because of his love for him: for David was as dear to him as his very soul.
И приложи Ионафан еще клятися Давиду, яко возлюби душу любящаго его.
18 Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and it will be seen that you are not present, for there will be no one in your seat.
И рече Ионафан к нему: заутра новомесячие, и присмотрен будеши, яко праздно усмотрено будет место твое:
19 And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.
ты же премедлиши три дни и пребудеши на месте твоем, идеже скрыешися в день делания, и сядеши при Ергаве онем:
20 And on the third day I will send arrows from my bow against its side as if at a mark.
и аз утрою стрелами стреляя, и стрелю вергая до амаггариа:
21 And I will send my boy to have a look for the arrow. And if I say to him, See, the arrow is on this side of you; take it up! then you may come; for there is peace for you and no evil, by the living Lord.
и се, послю отрока, глаголя: иди и обрящи ми стрелу: и аще реку отроку: зде стрела от тебе, и зде, возми ю: и ты гряди ко мне, яко мир тебе, и несть о тебе слова, жив Господь:
22 But if I say to the boy, See, the arrow has gone past you: then go on your way, for the Lord has sent you away.
аще же тако реку юноши: тамо стрела от тебе и далее: иди, яко отсла тя Господь:
23 As for what you and I were talking of, the Lord is between you and me for ever.
и глагол егоже аз и ты глаголахом, се, Господь свидетель между тобою и мною до века.
24 So David went to a secret place in the country: and when the new moon came, the king took his place at the feast.
И скрыся Давид на поли, и прииде новомесячие, и прииде царь на трапезу ясти,
25 And the king took his seat, as at other times, by the wall: and Jonathan was in front, and Abner was seated by Saul's side, but there was no one in David's seat.
и седе царь на месте своем якоже и всегда на престоле при стене, и предвари Ионафана, и седе Авенир от страны Сауловы, и усмотрено бысть (праздно) место Давидово.
26 But Saul said nothing that day, for his thought was, Something has taken place making him unclean; it is clear that he is not clean.
И не глагола Саул ничтоже в той день, помысли бо, случай видится, нечисту быти, яко не очистися.
27 And on the day after the new moon, that is, the second day, there was still no one in David's seat: and Saul said to his son Jonathan, Why has the son of Jesse not come to the feast yesterday or today?
И бысть наутрие месяца в день вторый, и усмотрено бысть праздно место Давидово, и рече Саул ко Ионафану сыну своему: что яко не прииде сын Иессеев ни вчера, ни днесь на трапезу?
28 And answering Saul, Jonathan said, He made a request to me that he might go to Beth-lehem,
И отвеща Ионафан к Саулу и рече ему: упросися от мене Давид до Вифлеема града своего ити,
29 Saying, Our family is making an offering in the town, and my brothers have given me orders to be there: so now, if I have grace in your eyes, let me go away and see my brothers. This is why he has not come to the king's table.
и рече: отпусти мя ныне (в Вифлеем), яко жертва колена нашего во граде, и заповедаша мне братия моя: и ныне аще обретох благодать пред очима твоима, да пойду ныне и узрю братию мою: сего ради не прииде на трапезу цареву.
30 Then Saul was moved to wrath against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of an evil and uncontrolled woman, have I not seen how you have given your love to the son of Jesse, to your shame and the shame of your mother?
И разгневася гневом Саул на Ионафана зело и рече ему: сыне девок блудниц, не вем ли, яко сообщник еси ты сыну Иессееву в срамоту твою и в срамоту откровения матере твоея?
31 For while the son of Jesse is living on the earth, your position is unsafe and your kingdom is in danger. So make him come here to me, for it is certainly right for him to be put to death.
Яко во вся дни, в няже сын Иессеев жити имать на земли, не уготовится царство твое: ныне убо послав, поими юношу, яко сын смерти есть сей.
32 And Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said to him, Why is he to be put to death? What has he done?
И отвеща Ионафан Саулу отцу своему и рече: за что умирает? Что сотвори?
33 And Saul, pointing his spear at him, made an attempt to give him a wound: from which it was clear to Jonathan that his father's purpose was to put David to death.
И верже Саул копием на Ионафана, еже умертвити его. И позна Ионафан, яко совершися злоба сия от отца его, да умертвит Давида:
34 So Jonathan got up from the table, burning with wrath, and took no part in the feast the second day of the month, being full of grief for David because his father had put shame on him.
и вскочи Ионафан от трапезы во гневе ярости, и не яде хлеба в день вторый месяца, яко сокрушися о Давиде, зане соверши (злобу) на него отец его.
35 Now in the morning, Jonathan went out into the fields at the time he had said to David, and he had a little boy with him.
И бысть заутра, и изыде Ионафан на село, якоже совещася о свидении с Давидом, и отрок мал с ним.
36 And he said to the boy, Go and get the arrow I let loose from my bow. And while the boy was running, he sent an arrow past him.
И рече отроку: тецы, и обрящи ми стрелы, имиже аз стреляю. И отрок тече, и он стрели стрелою за него.
37 And when the boy came to the place where the arrow was, Jonathan, crying out after the boy, said, Has it not gone past you?
И прииде отрок до места стрелы, идеже стрелил Ионафан. И возопи Ионафан вслед отрока и рече: тамо стрела от тебе и далее.
38 And Jonathan went on crying out after the boy, Be quick, do not keep waiting about, go quickly. And Jonathan's boy got the arrow and came back to his master.
И паки возопи Ионафан вслед отрока своего, глаголя: потщися скоро, и не стой. И собра отрок Ионафану стрелы и принесе их к господину своему.
39 But the boy had no idea what was going on; only Jonathan and David had knowledge of it.
Отрок же не уведе ничесоже, токмо Ионафан и Давид ведеста вещь.
40 And Jonathan gave his bow and arrows to the boy, and said to him, Take these and go back to the town.
И отда Ионафан оружие свое отроку своему и рече отроку своему: поиди и отнеси во град.
41 And when the boy had gone, David came from his secret place by the hill, and falling to the earth went down on his face three times: and they gave one another a kiss, weeping together, till David's grief was the greater.
И егда отиде отрок, и Давид воста от Ергава, и паде на лице свое, и поклонися ему трижды, и облобыза кийждо друг друга, и плакася кийждо о друг друзе до скончания велика.
42 And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for we two have taken an oath, in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever. Then David went away, and Jonathan went into the town.
И рече Ионафан Давиду: иди с миром, и якоже кляхомся мы оба именем Господним, глаголюще: Господь да будет свидетель между мною и тобою и между семенем моим и между семенем твоим до века. И воста Давид и отиде. Ионафан же вниде во град.
