1 Chronicles 19
1 And it came to pass after this that Nahash king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
И бысть по сих, умре Наас царь сынов Аммоних, и воцарися Амам сын его вместо его.
2 And David said, I will shew kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
И рече Давид: сотворю милость со Ананом сыном Наасовым, якоже сотвори отец его милость со мною. И посла Давид послы на утешение ему о отце его. И приидоша отроцы Давидовы в землю сынов Аммоних ко Анану, да утешат его.
3 And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Is it, in thine eyes, to honour thy father that David has sent comforters to thee? Is it not to search and overthrow, and to spy out the land that his servants are come to thee?
И рекоша началницы сынов Аммоних ко Анану: еда прославляя Давид отца твоего пред тобою, посла к тебе утешители? Никако: но да испытают град и соглядают землю, приидоша к тебе отроцы его.
4 And Hanun took David's servants, and had them shaved, and their raiment cut off in the midst, as far as the hip, and sent them away.
И взя Анан рабов Давидовых, и обри их, и отреза от риз их половину даже до чресл, и отпусти их.
5 And [certain] went and told David concerning the men; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Abide at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
И приидоша возвестити Давиду о мужех: и посла во сретение им, яко быша обезчещени зело. И рече царь: седите во Иерихоне, дондеже возрастут брады вашя, и возвратитеся.
6 And the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David; and Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and from the Syrians of Maacah, and from Zobah.
И видеша сынове Аммони, яко посрамлени быша людие Давидовы, и посла Анан и сынове Аммони тысящу талант сребра, да наймут себе от Сирии Месопотамски, и от Сирии Мааха, и от Сувы колесницы и конники:
7 And they hired thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people; and they came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered together from their cities, and came to battle.
и наяша себе тридесять две тысящы колесниц и царя Мааха и людий его: и приидоша и ополчишася прямо Мидаве: и сынове Аммони собрашася от градов своих и приидоша на брань.
8 And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.
И услыша Давид, и посла Иоава и все воинство сильных.
9 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the city; and the kings that had come were by themselves on the field.
И изыдоша сынове Аммони и ополчишася на брань при вратех градских: царие же пришедшии ополчишася особно на поли.
10 And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind; and he chose out of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians;
И виде Иоав, яко бысть на него противное лице брани сопреди и созади, и избра от всех юнош Израилевых и устрои их противу Сира,
11 and the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
и останок людий даде в руце брату своему Авессе, и ополчишася противу сынов Аммоних.
12 And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
И рече: аще укрепится Сир паче мене, то будеши мне во спасение: аще же сынове Аммони укрепятся паче тебе, то аз спасу тя:
13 Be strong, and let us shew ourselves valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God; and Jehovah will do what is good in his sight.
мужайся, и укрепимся о людех наших и о градех Бога нашего, и Господь, еже благо пред очима его, сотворит.
14 And Joab and the people that were with him drew near in front of the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
И ополчися Иоав и вси людие, иже с ним, противу Сирян на брань, и побегоша от них.
15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. And Joab came to Jerusalem.
Сынове же Аммони видеша, яко побегоша Сиряне, и побегоша и они от лица Авессы и от лица Иоава брата его, и внидоша во град: Иоав же возвратися во Иерусалим.
16 And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river; and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.
И виде Сир, яко победи его Израиль, и посла послы: и изведоша Сира, иже бе за рекою, Софак же первоначалник тысящником силы Адраазаровы пред ними.
17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and came upon them, and set [the battle] in array against them. And David put the battle in array against the Syrians, and they fought with him.
И возвещено бысть Давиду, и собра весь Израиль, и прейде Иордан, и прииде на них, и ополчися противу их: и ополчися Давид противу Сира на брань и воева нань.
18 And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [in] chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and slew Shophach the captain of the host.
И убеже Сир от лица Израилева, и уби Давид от Сира седмь тысящ колесниц и четыредесять тысящ пешцев, и Софака первоначалника силы уби.
19 And the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were routed before Israel, and they made peace with David, and became his servants. And the Syrians would no more help the children of Ammon.
И видеша раби Адраазаровы, яко падоша от лица Израилева, и прибегоша к Давиду, и служаху ему: и не восхоте Сир помогати сыном Аммоним ктому.
