1 Kings 19
1 Then Ahab reported to Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
И возвести Ахаав Иезавели жене своей вся, елика сотвори Илиа, и яко изби пророки оружием.
2 And so Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “May the gods do these things, and may they add these other things, if by this hour tomorrow I will not have made your life like the life of one of them.”
И посла Иезавель ко Илии и рече: аще ты еси Илиа, аз же Иезавель: сия да сотворят ми бози и сия да приложат ми, яко в сей же час утро положу душу твою, якоже душу единаго от них.
3 Therefore, Elijah was afraid. And rising up, he went away to wherever his will would carry him. And he arrived in Beersheba of Judah. And he dismissed his servant there.
И убояся Илиа, и воста, и отиде души ради своея, и прииде в Вирсавию землю Иудину, и остави отрочище свое тамо,
4 And he continued on, into the desert, for one day’s journey. And when he had arrived, and was sitting under a juniper tree, he requested for his soul that he might die. And he said: “It is enough for me, O Lord. Take my soul. For I am no better than my fathers.”
сам же иде в пустыню дне путь, и прииде, и седе под смерчием, и проси души своей смерти, и рече: довлеет ныне (ми), возми убо от мене душу мою, Господи, яко несмь аз лучший отец моих.
5 And he stretched himself out, and he slept deeply in the shadow of the juniper tree. And behold, an Angel of the Lord touched him, and said to him, “Rise up and eat.”
И ляже, и успе под садом: и се, Ангел Господень коснуся ему и рече ему: востани, яждь и пий.
6 He looked, and behold, at his head was bread baked under ashes, and a container of water. Then he ate and drank, and again he slept deeply.
И воззре Илиа: и се, у возглавия его опреснок ячменный и чванец воды. И воста, и яде и пи, и возвратився успе.
7 And the Angel of the Lord returned a second time, and touched him, and said to him: “Rise up, eat. For a great journey again stands before you.”
И обратися Ангел Господень вторицею, и коснуся ему, и рече ему: востани, яждь и пий, яко мног от тебе путь.
8 And he when he had risen up, he ate and drank. And he walked by the strength of that food for forty days and forty nights, as far as the mountain of God, Horeb.
И воста, и яде и пи: и иде в крепости яди тоя четыредесять дний и четыредесять нощей до горы Божия Хорив.
9 And when he had arrived there, he stayed in a cave. And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, and said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
И вниде тамо в пещеру, и вселися в ней. И се, глагол Господень к нему и рече: что ты зде, Илие?
10 And he responded: “I have been very zealous on behalf of the Lord, the God of hosts. For the sons of Israel have forsaken your covenant. They have torn down your altars. They have killed your prophets with the sword. I alone remain. And they are seeking my life, so that they may take it away.”
И рече Илиа: ревнуя поревновах по Господе (Бозе) Вседержители, яко оставиша Тя сынове Израилевы: олтари Твоя раскопаша, и пророки Твоя избиша оружием, и остах аз един, и ищут души моея изяти ю.
11 And he said to him, “Go out and stand on the mount before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord passed by. And there was a great and strong wind, tearing apart the mountains, and crushing the rocks before the Lord. But the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind, there was an earthquake. But the Lord was not in the earthquake.
И рече: изыди утро и стани пред Господем в горе: и се, мимо пойдет Господь, и дух велик и крепок разоряя горы и сокрушая камение в горе пред Господем, (но) не в дусе Господь: и по дусе трус, и не в трусе Господь:
12 And after the earthquake, there was a fire. But the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, there was the whisper of a gentle breeze.
и по трусе огнь, и не во огни Господь: и по огни глас хлада тонка, и тамо Господь.
13 And when Elijah had heard it, he covered his face with his cloak, and going out, he stood at the entrance of the cave. And behold, there was a voice to him, saying: “What are you doing here, Elijah?” And he responded:
И бысть яко услыша Илиа, покры лице свое милотию своею, и изыде и ста пред вертепом. И се, к нему бысть глас и рече: что ты зде, Илие?
14 “I have been very zealous on behalf of the Lord, the God of hosts. For the sons of Israel have forsaken your covenant. They have torn down your altars. They have killed your prophets with the sword. I alone remain. And they are seeking my life, so that they may take it away.”
И рече Илиа: ревнуя поревновах по Господе Бозе Вседержители, яко оставиша завет Твой сынове Израилевы, и олтари Твоя раскопаша, и пророки Твоя избиша оружием, и остах аз един, и ищут души моея изяти ю.
15 And the Lord said to him: “Go, and return on your way, through the desert, to Damascus. And when you have arrived there, you shall anoint Hazael as king over Syria.
И рече Господь к нему: иди, возвратися путем своим, и изыдеши на путь пустыни Дамасковы, и помажеши Азаила на царство Сирийское,
16 And you shall anoint Jehu, the son of Nimshi, as king over Israel. But Elisha, the son of Shaphat, who is from Abelmeholah, you shall anoint to be a prophet in your place.
и Ииуа сына Намессиина помажеши на царство над Израилем, и Елиссеа сына Сафатова от Авелмаула помажеши вместо себе пророка:
17 And this shall be: whoever will have escaped from the sword of Hazael, will be slain by Jehu. And whoever will have escaped from the sword of Jehu, will be put to death by Elisha.
и будет спасаемаго от оружия Азаилева убиет Ииуй, и спасаемаго от оружия Ииуина убиет Елиссей:
18 And I will leave for myself seven thousand men in Israel, whose knees have not been bent before Baal, and every mouth that has not adored him, kissing hands.”
и оставиши во Израили седмь тысящ мужей, вся колена, яже не преклониша колена Ваалу, и всяка уста, яже не молишася ему.
19 Therefore, Elijah, setting out from there, found Elisha, the son of Shaphat, plowing with twelve yoke of oxen. And he himself was one of those who were plowing with the twelve yoke of oxen. And when Elijah had gone to him, he cast his mantle over him.
И иде оттуду, и обрете Елиссеа сына Сафатова, и сей оряше двеманадесятьма супругома волов пред ним, и той сам по двоюнадесяти супруг. И прииде Илиа к нему, и поверже милоть свою на него.
20 And immediately, leaving behind the oxen, he ran after Elijah. And he said, “I beg you to let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” And he said to him: “Go, and turn back. For what was mine to do, I have done concerning you.”
И остави Елиссей волы, и тече вслед Илии, и рече: (молю тя, ) да облобыжу отца моего и матерь мою, и иду вслед тебе. И рече ему Илиа: иди, возвратися, яко сотворих тебе.
21 Then, turning back from him, he took a pair of oxen, and he slew them. And he cooked the flesh with the plow of the oxen. And he gave it to the people, and they ate. And rising up, he went and followed Elijah, and he ministered to him.
И возвратися от него: и взя супруги волов, и закла, и испече я в сосудех воловных, и даде людем, и ядоша. И воста, и иде вслед Илии, и служаше ему.
