< Kings I 9 >
1 And [there was] a man of the sons of Benjamin, and his name [was] Kis, the son of Abiel, the son of Jared, the son of Bachir, the son of Aphec, the son of a Benjamite, a man of might.
И бе муж от сынов Вениаминовых, емуже имя Кис, сын Авиилов, сына Иаредова, сына Вахирова, сына Афекова, сына мужа Иеминеова, муж силен крепостию.
2 And this man [had] a son, and his name was Saul, of great stature, a goodly man; and there was not amongst the sons of Israel a goodlier than he, high above all the people from his shoulders and upward.
И сему бе сын, имя ему Саул, добровеличен, муж благ: и не бе в сынех Израилевых благ паче его, от рамен и выше высок паче всех людий.
3 And the asses of Kis the father of Saul were lost; and Kis said to Saul his son, Take with you one of the young men, and arise you, and go seek the asses.
И заблудиша ослята Киса отца Саулова. И рече Кис к Саулу сыну своему: возми с собою единаго от отрок, и воставше идите и поищите ослят.
4 And they went through mount Ephraim, and they went through the land of Selcha, and found them not: and they passed through the land of Segalim, and they were not there: and they passed through the land of Jamin, and found them not.
И проидоша гору Ефремлю, и проидоша землю Селха, и не обретоша: и проидоша землю Сегалимлю, и не бе: и проидоша землю Иаминю, и не обретоша.
5 And when they came to Siph, then Saul said to his young man that was with him, Come and let us return, lest my father leave the asses, and take care for us.
И пришедшым им в землю Сифову, и рече Саул ко отроку своему иже с ним: гряди и возвратимся, да не како отец мой оставя ослята, печется о нас.
6 And the young man said to him, Behold now, [there is] a man of God in this city, and the man [is] of high repute; all that he shall speak will surely come to pass: now then let us go, that he may tell us our way on which we have set out.
И рече ему отрок: се, зде человек Божий во граде сем, и человек славен: все еже аще речет приходящым к нему, будет им: и ныне пойдем тамо, да возвестит нам путь наш, имже пойдем.
7 And Saul said to his young man that was with him, Behold, then, we will go; but what shall we bring the man of God? for the loaves are spent out of our vessels, and we have nothing more with us that belongs to us to bring to the man of God.
И рече Саул отроку своему иже с ним: се, пойдем, и что принесем к человеку Божию? Яко хлебы оскудеша от вретищ наших, и ктому несть у нас, еже внести к человеку Божию от имения нашего.
8 And the young man answered Saul again, and said, Behold, there is found in my hand a fourth part of a shekel of silver; and you shall give it to the man of God, and he shall tell us our way.
И приложи отрок отвещати Саулу и рече: се, обретается в руце моей четвертая часть сикля сребра, и даси человеку Божию, и возвестит нам путь наш.
9 Now before time in Israel every one in going to enquire of God said, Come and let us go to the seer; for the people beforetime called the prophet, the seer.
Прежде бо во Израили сице глаголаше кийждо, егда кто идяше вопрошати Бога: гряди, да идем к прозорливцу: яко пророка нарицаху людие прежде прозорливцем.
10 And Saul said to his servant, Well said, come and let us go: and they went to the city where the man of God was.
И рече Саул отроку своему: добр глагол твой: гряди, да идем. И идоша во град, идеже бе человек Божий.
11 As they went up the ascent to the city, they find damsels come out to draw water, and they say to them, Is the seer here?
Восходящым же им на восход града, и се, обретоша девиц изшедших почерпсти воды, и реша им: есть ли зде прозорливец?
12 And the virgins answered them, and they say to them, He is: behold, [he is] before you: now he is coming to the city, because of the day, for today [there is] a sacrifice for the people in Bama.
И отвещаша им девицы, глаголющя: есть, се пред лицем вашим: ныне же потщитеся, яко дне ради грядет во град, яко жертва днесь людем в ваме:
13 As soon as you shall enter into the city, so shall you find him in the city, before he goes up to Bama to eat; for the people will not eat until he comes in, for he blesses the sacrifice, and afterwards the guests eat; now then go up, for you shall find him because of the holiday.
и егда внидете во град, тако обрящете его во граде, прежде неже взыти ему в ваму ясти: яко не имут ясти людие, дондеже внидет сей, яко той благословит жертву, и по сих ядят страннии: и ныне взыдите, яко дне ради обрящете его.
14 And they go up to the city; and as they were entering into the midst of the city, behold, Samuel came out to meet them, to go up to Bama.
И взыдоша во град. Имже входящым среди града, и се, Самуил изыде во сретение им, еже взыти в ваму.
15 And the Lord uncovered the ear of Samuel one day before Saul came to him, saying,
И Господь откры во ухо Самуилу днем единым прежде пришествия к нему Сауля, глаголя:
16 At this time to-morrow I will send to you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be ruler over my people Israel, and he shall save my people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon the humiliation of my people, for their cry is come to me.
якоже время сие, утро послю к тебе мужа от племене Вениаминова, и да помажеши его царя над людьми Моими Израилем, и спасет люди Моя от руки иноплеменничи: яко призрех на смирение людий Моих, яко взыде вопль их ко Мне.
17 And Samuel looked upon Saul, and the Lord answered him, Behold the man of whom I spoke to you, this one shall rule over my people.
И виде Самуил Саула, и Господь рече к нему: се, человек, о немже рекох ти: сей будет в людех Моих царствовати.
18 And Saul drew near to Samuel into the midst of the city, and said, Tell me now which [is] the house of the seer?
И приближися Саул к Самуилу посреде града и рече: возвести ми, который дом прозорливца.
19 And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I am he: go up before me to Bama, and eat with me today, and I will send you away in the morning, and I will tell you all that is in your heart.
И отвеща Самуил Саулу и рече: аз сам есмь: взыди предо мною в ваму, и яждь со мною днесь, и отпущу тя заутра, и вся яже в сердцы твоем возвещу ти:
20 And concerning your asses that have been lost now these three days, care not for them, for they are found. And to whom does the excellency of Israel belong? does it not to you and to your father's house?
и о ослятех твоих заблудивших днесь третий день, не помышляй в сердцы своем о них, ибо обретошася: и кому красная Израилева? Не тебе ли и дому отца твоего?
21 And Saul answered and said, Am not I the son of a Benjamite, the least tribe of the people of Israel? and of the least family of the whole tribe of Benjamin? and why have you spoken to me according to this word?
И отвеща Саул и рече: не сын ли есмь аз мужа иеминеа, меншаго скиптра племене Израилева? И племене малейшаго от всего скиптра Вениаминова? И отечество мое меншее паче всех отечеств Вениаминовых? И вскую глаголал еси ко мне по глаголу сему?
22 And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them to the inn, and set them there a place amongst the chief of those that were called, about seventy men.
И поят Самуил Саула и отрока его, и введе я во обиталище, и даде им тамо место в первых званых, яко в седмидесяти мужех.
23 And Samuel said to the cook, Give me the portion which I gave you, which I told you to set by you.
И рече Самуил повару: даждь ми часть, юже дах ти, и о нейже рех ти положити ю у себе.
24 Now the cook [had] boiled the shoulder, and he set it before Saul; and Samuel said to Saul, Behold that which is left: set before you, an eat; for it is set you for a testimony in preference to the others; take [of it]: and Saul ate with Samuel on that day.
И взя повар плече, и предложи е Саулови. И рече Самуил Саулу: се, избыток, предложи пред ся и яждь, яко во свидетелство предложися тебе паче иных, прикоснися. И яде Саул с Самуилом в той день.
25 And he went down from Bama into the city; and they prepared a lodging for Saul on the roof, and he lay down.
И сниде от вамы во град, и постлаша Саулови на горнице, и спа.
26 An it came to pass when the morning dawned, that Samuel called Saul on the roof, saying, Rise up, and I will dismiss you. And Saul arose, and he and Samuel went out.
И бысть егда приближашеся утро, и воззва Самуил Саула на горнице, и рече: востани, и отпущу тя. И воста Саул, и изыде сам и Самуил вон.
27 As they went down to a part of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Speak to the young man, and let him pass on before us; and do you stand as today, and listen to the word of God.
Имже исходящым в часть града, и рече Самуил к Саулу: рцы юноши, да предидет пред нами: а ты стани якоже днесь, и слышан сотворю тебе глаголгол Божий.
