Chronicles II 14
1 And Abia died with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In the days of Asa the land of Juda had rest ten years.
И успе Авиа со отцы своими, и погребоша его во граде Давидове. И воцарися Аса сын его вместо его во дни же Асы почи земля Иудина лет десять.
2 And he did that which was good and right in the sight of the Lord his God.
И сотвори Аса благое и правое пред Господем Богом своим:
3 And he removed the altars of the strange [gods], and the high places, and broke the pillars in pieces, and cut down the groves:
и отверже олтари чуждых и высокая, и сокруши идолы и посече дубравы:
4 and he told Juda to seek earnestly the Lord God of their fathers, and to perform the law and commandments.
и повеле Иуде, да взыщет Господа Бога отец своих и да сотворит закон Его и заповеди:
5 And he removed from all the cities of Juda the altars and the idols, and established in quietness
и изверже из всех градов Иудиных олтари и идолы, и царствова в мире.
6 fortified cities in the land of Juda; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in these years; for the Lord gave him rest.
И созда грады крепки в земли Иудине, зане в покои бысть земля, и не бе ему брани в лета сия, мир во Господь даде ему.
7 And he said to Juda, Let us fortify these cities, and make walls, and towers, and gates, and bars: we shall prevail over the land, for as we have sought out the Lord our God, he has sought out us, and has given us rest round about, and prospered us.
Рече же Иуде: созиждем грады сия, и сотворим стены и столпы, и врата и вереи, дондеже землею господствуем: зане якоже взыскахом Господа Бога нашего, взыска и нас, и воздаде нам мир окрест, и благопоспешствова нам.
8 And Asa had a force of armed men bearing shields and spears in the land of Juda, [even] three hundred thousand, and in the land of Benjamin two hundred and eighty thousand targeteers and archers: all these were mighty warriors.
И бысть сила Асе оруженосцев носящих щиты и копия в земли Иудине триста тысящ, в земли же Вениамини щитников и стрелцев двести осмьдесят тысящ: вси сии воини сильнии.
9 And Zare the Ethiopian went out against them, with a force of a million, and three hundred chariots; and came to Maresa.
Изыде же противу их Зарай Ефиоплянин с силою в тысящы тысящей, и колесниц триста, и прииде даже до Мариса.
10 And Asa went out to meet him, and set the battle in array in the valley north of Maresa.
И изыде Аса противу ему и устрои брань в дебри на север Мариса.
11 And Asa cried to the Lord his God, and said, O Lord, it is not impossible with you to save by many or by few: strengthen us, O Lord our God; for we trust in you, and in your name have we come against this great multitude. O Lord our God, let not man prevail against you.
И возопи Аса ко Господу Богу своему и рече: Господи, не изнеможет у Тебе спасати во многих и в малых, укрепи нас, Господи Боже наш, яко на Тя уповахом и о имени Твоем изыдохом на множество многое сие: Господи Боже наш, Ты еси Бог, да не превозможет противу Тебе человек.
12 And the Lord struck the Ethiopians before Juda; and the Ethiopians fled.
И порази Господь Ефиопы пред Асою и Иудою и бежаша Ефиопи:
13 And Asa and his people pursued them to Gedor; and the Ethiopians fell, so that they could not recover themselves; for they were crushed before the Lord, and before his host; and they took many spoils.
и погна их Аса и людие его даже до Гедора: и падоша Ефиопи, даже не быти в них останку, яко сотрени быша пред Господем и пред силою Его, и плениша корысти многи:
14 And they destroyed their towns roundabout Gedor; for a terror of the Lord was upon them: and they spoiled all their cities, for they had much spoil.
и изсекоша веси их окрест Гедора, велик бо страх Господень объят их, и плениша вся грады их, зане многи корысти быша в них:
15 Also they destroyed the tents of cattle, and the Alimazons, and took many sheep and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.
и кущы скотския и амазонов изсекоша, и взяша скота множество и велблюды, и возвратишася во Иерусалим.
