Judges 6
1 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord gave them into the hand of Madiam seven years.
И сотвориша сынове Израилевы злое пред Господем, и предаде их Господь в руку Мадиамлю седмь лет.
2 And the hand of Madiam prevailed against Israel: and the children of Israel made for themselves because of Madiam the caves in the mountains, and the dens, and the holes in the rocks.
И укрепися рука Мадиамля на Израиля: и сотвориша себе сынове Израилевы от лица Мадиамля ограды в горах и в пещерах и в твердынех.
3 And it came to pass when the children of Israel sowed, that Madiam and Amalec went up, and the children of the east went up together with them.
И бысть егда сеяше муж Израилев, и восхождаше Мадиам и Амалик и сынове восточнии, и восхождаху на него,
4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed their fruits until they came to Gaza; and they left not the support of life in the land of Israel, not even ox or ass amongst the herds.
и ополчахуся на них, и разоряху плоды земныя, дондеже внити в Газу: и не оставляху бытия жизненнаго во Израили, и стад и телца и осла:
5 For they and their stock came up, and their tents were with them, as the locust in multitude, and there was no number to them and their camels; and they came to the land of Israel, and laid it waste.
яко сами и скоти их восхождаху, и кущы их преношаху, и прихождаху яко прузи множеством, и самем и велблюдом их не бяше числа: и прихождаху на землю Израилеву разорити ю.
6 And Israel was greatly impoverished because of Madiam.
И обнища Израиль зело от лица Мадиамля.
7 And the children of Israel cried to the Lord because of Madiam.
И возопиша сынове Израилевы ко Господу: и бысть егда возопиша сынове Израилевы ко Господу Мадиама ради,
8 And the Lord sent a prophet to the children of Israel; and he said to them, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I am he that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and I brought you up out of the house of your bondage.
и посла Господь мужа пророка к сыном Израилевым, и рече им: сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: Аз есмь изведый вас из Египта, и изведох вас из дому работы:
9 And I delivered you out of the hand of Egypt, and out of the hand of all that afflicted you, and I cast them out before you; and I gave you their land.
и избавих вас от руки Египетския и от руки всех стужающих вам: и изгнах я от лица вашего, и дах вам землю их,
10 And I said to you, I [am] the Lord your God: you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but you listened not to my voice.
и рекох вам: Аз есмь Господь Бог ваш, не убойтеся богов Аморрейских, в нихже вы живете в земли их: и не послушасте гласа Моего.
11 And an angel of the Lord came, and sat down under the fir tree, which was in Ephratha in the land of Joas father of Esdri; and Gedeon his son [was] threshing wheat in a wine-press in order to escape from the face of Madiam.
И прииде Ангел Господень, и седе под дубом, иже есть во Ефрафе, иже бысть Иоаса отца Езри. И Гедеон сын его млачаше пшеницу на гумне его, бежати от лица Мадиамля.
12 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him, The Lord [is] with you, you mighty in strength.
И явися ему Ангел Господень и рече к нему: Господь с тобою, сильный крепостию.
13 And Gedeon said to him, [Be gracious] with me, my Lord: but if the Lord is with us, why have these evils found us? and where are all his miracles, which our fathers have related to us, saying, Did not the Lord bring us up out of Egypt? and now he has cast us out, and given us into the hand of Madiam.
И рече к нему Гедеон: во мне, Господи мой: и аще есть Господь с нами, и вскую обретоша ны вся злая сия? И где суть вся чудеса Его, елика поведаша нам отцы наши, глаголюще: не из Египта ли изведе нас Господь? И ныне отверже нас Господь и предаде нас в руку Мадиамлю.
14 And the angel of the Lord turned to him, and said, Go in this your strength, and you shall save Israel out of the hand of Madiam: behold, I have sent you.
И воззре на него Ангел Господень и рече ему: иди в крепости твоей сей, и спасеши Израиля от руки Мадиамли: и се, послах тя.
15 And Gedeon said to him, [Be gracious] with me, my Lord: whereby shall I save Israel? behold, my thousand is weakened in Manasse, and I am the least in my father's house.
И рече к нему Гедеон: во мне, Господи, в чесом спасу Израиля? Се, тысяща моя хуждша в Манассии, и аз есмь мний в дому отца моего.
16 And the angel of the Lord said to him, The Lord shall be with you, and you shall strike Madiam as one man.
И рече к нему Господь: понеже Аз буду с тобою, и избиеши Мадиама яко мужа единаго.
17 And Gedeon said to him, If now I have found mercy in your eyes, and you will do this day for me all that you have spoken of with me,
И рече к Нему Гедеон: и аще обретох благодать пред очима Твоима, и да сотвориши мне днесь знамение, яко Ты глаголеши со мною:
18 depart not hence until I come to you, and I will bring forth an offering and offer it before you: and he said, I will remain until you return.
не отиди отсюду, дондеже приити мне к Тебе, и принесу жертву мою, и пожру пред Тобою. И рече: Аз есмь, премедлю, дондеже обратишися ты.
19 And Gedeon went in, and prepared a kid of the goats, and an ephah of fine flour unleavened; and he put the flesh in the basket, and poured the broth into the pot, and brought them forth to him under the turpentine tree, and drew near.
И Гедеон вниде, и сотвори козлище от коз, и четверть ифи муки опресноков, и мяса вложи в кошницу, и юху влия в горнец: и изнесе к Нему под дуб, и поклонися.
20 And the angel of God said to him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and put them on that rock, and pour out the broth close by: and he did so.
И рече к нему Ангел Господень: возми мяса и хлебы пресныя, и положи у камене онаго, и юху близ излий. И сотвори тако.
21 And the angel of the Lord stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened bread; and fire came up out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened bread, and the angel of the Lord vanished from his sight.
И простре Ангел Господень конец жезла, иже в руце его, и прикоснуся мясом и хлебом пресным: и возгореся огнь из камене, и пояде мяса и опресноки: и Ангел Господень отиде от очей его.
22 And Gedeon saw that he was an angel of the Lord; and Gedeon said, Ah, ah, Lord my God! for I have seen the angel of the Lord face to face.
И виде Гедеон, яко Ангел есть Господень, и рече Гедеон: увы мне, Господи, Господи, яко видех Ангела Господня лицем к лицу.
23 And the Lord said to him, Peace be to you, fear not, you shall not die.
И рече ему Господь: мир тебе, и не бойся, не умреши.
24 And Gedeon built there an altar to the Lord, and called it The peace of the Lord, until this day, as it is still inEphratha of the father of Esdri.
И созда тамо Гедеон жертвенник Господу, и назва его Мир Господень, даже до дне сего, еще сущу ему во Ефрафе отца Езри.
25 And it came to pass in that night, that the Lord said to him, Take the young bullock which your father has, even the second bullock of seven years old, and you shall destroy the altar of Baal which your father has, and the grove which is by itthou shall destroy.
И бысть в ту нощь, и рече ему Господь: возми телца упитаннаго (от скотов) отца твоего, и телца втораго седми лет, и разориши олтарь Ваалов, иже есть отца твоего, и дубраву, яже у него, да посечеши:
26 And you shall build an altar to the Lord your God on the top of this Maozi in the ordering[it], and you shall take the second bullock, and shall offer up whole burnt offerings with the wood of the grove, which you shall destroy.
и да соградиши олтарь Господеви Богу твоему явившемуся тебе на верху (горы) маози во предчинии: и да поймеши телца втораго и вознесеши всесожжения на древех дубравы, юже посечеши.
27 And Gedeon took ten men of his servants, and did as the Lord spoke to him: and it came to pass, as he feared the house of his father and the men of the city if he should do it by day, that he did it by night.
И поя Гедеон десять мужей от рабов своих, и сотвори, якоже заповеда ему Господь. И бысть яко убояся дому отца своего и мужей града, еже сотворити во дни, и сотвори нощию.
28 And the men of the city rose up early in the morning; and behold, the altar of Baal had been demolished, and the grove by it had been destroyed; and they saw the second bullock, which Gedeon offered on the altar that had been built.
И обутреневаша мужие градстии заутра: и се, раскопан олтарь Ваалов, и дубрава яже у него посечена, и видеша телца втораго вознесена на всесожжение на олтарь новосогражденный.
29 And a man said to his neighbour, Who has done this thing? and they enquired and searched, and learnt that Gedeon the son of Joas had done this thing.
И рече муж к ближнему своему: кто сотвори вещь сию? И вопрошаху и искаху, и познаша, яко Гедеон сын Иоасов сотвори вещь сию.
30 And the men of the city said to Joas, Bring out your son, and let him die, because he has destroyed the altar of Baal, and because he has destroyed the grove that is by it.
И рекоша мужие градстии ко Иоасу: изведи сына твоего, и да умрет, яко раскопа олтарь Ваалов и яко посече дубраву яже над ним.
31 And Gedeon the son of Joas said to all the men who rose up against him, Do you now plead for Baal, or will you save him? whoever will plead for him, let him be slain this morning: if he be a god let him plead for himself, [because] one has thrown down his altar.
И рече Иоас к мужем воставшым на него: еда вы ныне суд глаголете о Ваале? Или вы его спасете? Иже аще кто сотвори обиду, да умрет до заутрия: аще Бог есть, да мстит себе, яко раскопа олтарь его.
32 And he called it in that day Jerobaal, saying, Let Baal plead thereby, because his altar has been thrown down.
И прозва его в той день Иероваалом, глаголя: да отмстит на нем Ваал, яко раскопа олтарь его.
33 And all Madiam, and Amalek, and the sons of the east gathered themselves together, and encamped in the valley of Jezrael.
И весь Мадиам и Амалик и сынове востоков снидошася вкупе, и преидоша (реку), и ополчишася в долине Иезраель.
34 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Gedeon, and he blew with the horn, and Abiezer came to help after him.
И Дух Божий укрепи Гедеона, и воструби рогом, и возопи Авиезер вслед его.
35 And [Gedeon] sent messengers into all Manasse, and into Aser, and into Zabulon, and into Nephthali; and he went up to meet them.
И посла послы ко всему Манассию, и созвася и сей вслед его. Посем посла послы во Асир и в Завулон и в Неффалим, и взыдоша во сретение им.
36 And Gedeon said to God, If you will save Israel by my hand, as you have said,
И рече Гедеон к Богу: аще Ты спасаеши рукою моею Израиля, якоже глаголал еси,
37 behold, I put the fleece of wool in the threshing floor: if there be dew on the fleece only, and drought on all the ground, I shall know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you have said.
се, аз положу руно овчее на гумне: и аще будет роса на руне точию, и по всей земли суша, уразумею, яко спасеши рукою моею Израиля, якоже глаголал еси.
38 And it was so: and he rose up early in the morning, and wrung the fleece, and dew dropped from the fleece, a bowl full of water.
И бысть тако: и урани Гедеон наутрие, и исцеди руно, и истече роса из руна, исполнен окрин воды.
39 And Gedeon said to God, Let not, I pray you, your anger be kindled with me, and I will speak yet once; I will even yet make one trial more with the fleece: let now the drought be upon the fleece only, and let there be dew on all the ground.
И рече Гедеон к Богу: да не разгневается ярость Твоя на мя, и возглаголю еще единою, и искушу еще единою руном: да будет суша на руне токмо, и по всей земли да будет роса.
40 And God did so in that night; and there was drought on the fleece only, and on all the ground there was dew.
И сотвори Бог тако в нощи той: и бысть суша на руне токмо, и по всей земли бысть роса.
