Judges 3
1 And these [are] the nations which the Lord left to prove Israel with them, all that had not known the wars of Chanaan.
И сия языки, яже остави Господь, да искусит ими Израиля, вся неведущыя браней Ханаанских,
2 Only for the sake of the generations of Israel, to teach them war, only the men before them knew them not.
токмо ради родов сынов Израилевых, еже научити я брани, обаче иже прежде их не уведаша их:
3 The five lordships of the Phylistines, and every Chananite, and the Sidonian, and the Evite who lived in Libanus from the mount of Aermon to Laboemath.
пять воеводств иноплеменнических, и всего Хананеа и Сидония, и Евеа живущаго в Ливане от горы Ваал-Ермон до Лавоемафа.
4 And [this] was done in order to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would obey the commands of the Lord, which he charged their fathers by the hand of Moses.
И бысть да искусит ими Израиля, да увесть, аще послушают заповедий Господних, яже заповеда отцем их рукою Моисеовою.
5 And the children of Israel lived in the midst of the Chananite, and the Chettite, and the Amorite, and the Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Jebusite.
И сынове Израилевы обиташа посреде Хананеа и Хеттеа, и Аморреа и Ферезеа, и Евеа и Гергесеа и Иевусеа,
6 And they took their daughters for wives to themselves, and they gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
и пояша дщери их себе в жены, и дщери своя даша сыном их, и послужиша богом их.
7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and forgot the Lord their God, and served Baalim and the groves.
И сотвориша сынове Израилевы злое пред Господем и забыша Господа Бога своего, и послужиша Ваалу и Дубравам.
8 And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and sold them into the hand of Chusarsathaim king of Syria of the rivers: and the children of Israel served Chusarsathaim eight years.
И разгневася яростию Господь на Израиля и предаде их в руки Хусарсафема царя Месопотамии Сирския: и работаша сынове Израилевы Хусарсафему лет осмь.
9 And the children of Israel cried to the Lord; and the Lord raised up a saviour to Israel, and he saved them, Gothoniel the son of Kenez, the brother of Chaleb younger than himself.
И возопиша сынове Израилевы ко Господу. И возстави Господь спасителя Израилю, и спасе их, Гофониила, сына Кенеза брата Халевова юнейшаго его.
10 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war against Chusarsathaim: and the Lord delivered into his hand Chusarsathaim king of Syria of the rivers, and his hand prevailed against Chusarsathaim.
И бысть на нем Дух Господень, и суди Израиля. И изыде на рать к Хусарсафему: и предаде Господь в руце его Хусарсафема царя Сирска, и укрепися рука его над Хусарсафемом.
11 And the land was quiet forty years; and Gothoniel the son of Kenez died.
И бысть в покои земля четыредесять лет. И умре Гофониил сын Кенезов.
12 And the children of Israel continued to do evil before the Lord: and the Lord strengthened Eglom king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil before the Lord.
И приложиша сынове Израилевы сотворити злое пред Господем: и укрепи Господь Еглома царя Моавля на Израиля, занеже сотвориша злое пред Господем.
13 And he gathered to himself all the children of Ammon and Amalec, and went and struck Israel, and took possession of the city of Palm-trees.
И собра к себе вся сыны Аммони и Амаликовы: и иде, и порази Израиля, и взя град Финическ.
14 And the children of Israel served Eglom the king of Moab eighteen years.
И работаша сынове Израилевы Еглому царю Моавлю лет осмьнадесять.
15 And the children of Israel cried to the Lord; and he raised up to them a saviour, Aod the son of Gera a son of Jemeni, a man who used both hands alike: and the children of Israel sent gifts by his hand to Eglom king of Moab.
И возопиша сынове Израилевы ко Господу: и возстави им Господь спасителя, Аода сына Гираня, сына Иемениина, мужа ободесноручна: и послаша сынове Израилевы дары рукою его Еглому царю Моавлю.
16 And Aod made himself a dagger of two edges, of a span long, and he girded it under his cloak upon his right thigh.
И сотвори себе Аод нож обоюдуостр, на пядь едину долгота его, и припояса его под ризу по бедре десней своей.
17 And he went, and brought the presents to Eglom king of Moab, and Eglom [was] a very handsome man.
И иде, и принесе дары Еглому царю Моавлю: Еглом же муж добротелесен бе зело.
18 And it came to pass when [Aod] had made an end of offering his gifts, that he dismissed those that brought the gifts.
И бысть егда сконча Аод принося дары, и отсла носящих дары:
19 And he himself returned from the quarries that are by Galgal; and Aod said, I have a secret errand to you, O king! and Eglom said to him, Be silent: and he sent away from his presence all who waited upon him.
и Еглом обратися от идол иже в Галгалех. И рече Аод: слово мне есть к тебе тайно, царю. И рече Еглом к нему: молчи. И отсла от себе всех предстоящих пред ним.
20 And Aod went in to him; and he sat in his own upper summer chamber quite alone; and Aod said, I have a message from God to you, O king: and Eglom rose up from his throne near him.
И Аод вниде к нему. Сей же седяше в горнице летней своей един. И рече Аод: слово Божие мне к тебе, царю. И воста Еглом со престола близ его.
21 And it came to pass as he arose, that Aod stretched forth his left hand, and took the dagger off his right thigh, and plunged it into his belly;
И бысть егда воста, и простре Аод руку левую свою, и извлече нож, иже над стегном его десным, и вонзе во чрево егломово:
22 and drove in also the haft after the blade, and the fat closed in upon the blade, for he drew not out the dagger from his belly.
и втисне и рукоять за острием, и заключи тук за острием, яко не извлече ножа из чрева его, (и изыде лайно).
23 And Aod went out to the porch, and passed out by the appointed [guards], and shut the doors of the chamber upon him, and locked [them].
И изыде Аод в притвор, и пройде стрегущих, и затвори двери горницы за собою и заключи,
24 And he went out: and Eglom's servants came, and saw, and behold, the doors of the upper chamber [were] locked; and they said, Does he not uncover his feet in the summer-chamber?
и сам изыде. И раби его приидоша и узреша, и се, двери горницы заключены, и реша: еда у потребы седит во отлучении ложа?
25 And they waited till they were ashamed, and, behold, there was no one that opened the doors of the upper chamber; and they took the key, and opened them; and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead upon the earth.
И преждаша дондеже посрамишася: и се, не бысть отверзаяй двери горницы. И взяша ключь, и отверзоша: и се, господин их лежит на земли мертв.
26 And Aod escaped while they were in a tumult, and no one paid attention to him; and he passed the quarries, and escaped to Setirotha.
И Аод спасеся внегда смущахуся, и не бе помышляющаго о нем: а он прейде идолы, и спасеся в Сетирофе.
27 And it came to pass when Aod came into the land of Israel, that he blew the horn in mount Ephraim, and the children of Israel came down with him from the mountain, and he [was] before them.
И бысть егда прииде Аод в землю Израилеву, и воструби рогом в горе Ефремли: и снидоша с ним с горы сынове Израилевы, и той пред ними.
28 And he said to them, Come down after me, for the Lord God has delivered our enemies, even Moab, into our hand; and they went down after him, and seized on the fords of Jordan before Moab, and he did not suffer a man to pass over.
И рече к ним: идите вслед мене, яко предаде Господь Бог враги нашя Моавляны в руки нашя. И идоша вслед его, и предвзяша преходы Иордана Моавля, и ни единому мужу попустиша преити.
29 And they struck Moab on that day about ten thousand men, every [lusty] person and every mighty man; and not a man escaped.
И избиша Моава в то время яко десять тысящ мужей, вся воины, иже в них, и всякаго мужа сильна: и ни един муж спасеся.
30 So Moab was humbled in that day under the hand of Israel, and the land had rest eighty years; and Aod judged them till he died.
И пременися Моав в той день под руку Израилеву, и бысть в покои земля осмьдесят лет: и суди их Аод дондеже умре.
31 And after him rose up Samegar the son of Dinach, and struck the Philistines to the number of six hundred men with a ploughshare [such as is drawn by] oxen; and he too delivered Israel.
И по нем воста Самегар сын Анафов: и изби иноплеменников шесть сот мужей ралом воловым: и спасе и сей Израиля.
