2 Samuel 20
1 And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjaminite; and he blew a trumpet, and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, Israel.
И тамо бяше сын беззаконный, имя же ему Савей, сын Вохоров, муж Иеминиов, и воструби трубою рожаною и рече: несть нам части в Давиде, ниже наследия нам в сыне Иессееве: (возвратитеся, ) мужие Израилтестии, в селения ваша.
2 Then all the men of Israel went up from after David, following Sheba the son of Bichri. But the men of Judah clave to their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.
И отступиша вси мужие Израилевы от Давида вслед Савеа сына Вохорова: мужие же Иудины прилепишася к царю своему от Иордана даже и до Иерусалима.
3 And David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women, concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in a house of confinement and maintained them, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up unto the day of their death, living in widowhood.
И вниде Давид в дом свой во Иерусалим, и взя царь десять жен подложниц своих, яже остави стрещи дом, и даде их в дом стражбы: и препита их, и (оттоле) не вниде к ним: и беша храними до дне смерти своея, вдовски живущя.
4 And the king said to Amasa, Call me the men of Judah together within three days, and do thou attend here.
И рече царь ко Амессаю: созови ми мужы Иудины в три дни, ты же зде стани.
5 So Amasa went to call together [the men of] Judah; but he delayed longer than the set time which he had appointed him.
И пойде Амессай созвати мужей Иудиных, и умедли от времене, в неже повеле ему Давид.
6 And David said to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than did Absalom. Take thou thy lord's servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him fortified cities and escape our sight.
И рече Давид ко Авессе: ныне зло сотворит нам Савей сын Вохорь паче Авессалома: и ныне ты поими с собою отроки господина своего, и пожени вслед его, да не како обрящет себе грады тверды и застенится от очес наших.
7 And there went out after him Joab's men, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men; and they went out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.
И изыдоша вслед его Авесса и мужие Иоавли, и Хереффи и Фелеффи и вси сильнии, и изыдоша из Иерусалима гнати вслед Савеа сына Вохорова.
8 When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came before them. And Joab was girded with his coat, his dress, and upon it was the girdle of the sword which was fastened on his loins in its sheath; and as he went forth it fell out.
И тии (бяху) у камене великаго, иже в Гаваоне, и Амессай вниде пред ними: Иоав же препоясан ризами одеяния своего, и верху того препоясан мечем припряженым при чреслех его в ножнах его, и егда отиде, и мечь изсунуся и паде.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, Art thou well, my brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard with the right hand to kiss him.
И рече Иоав Амессаю: здрав ли еси, брате? И взя Иоав рукою десною за браду Амессаеву лобзати его:
10 And Amasa had taken no notice of the sword that was in Joab's hand: so he smote him with it in the belly and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. And Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri.
Амессай же не побрежеся меча, иже в руце Иоавли: и удари его Иоав мечем в чресла его, и излияся чрево его на землю, и не повтори ему, и умре (Амессай). Иоав же и Авесса брат его гнаста вслед Савеа сына Вохоря.
11 And one of Joab's young men stood by [Amasa] and said, He that favours Joab, and he that is for David, let him follow Joab.
И муж ста над ним от отрок Иоавлих и рече: кто хощет (быти) Иоавль, и кто Давидов, вслед Иоава (да идет).
12 Now Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he removed Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a cloth upon him, when he saw that every one that came by stood still.
Амессай же мертв валяшеся в крови посреде пути. И виде муж, яко остановляхуся над ним вси людие, и соврати Амессая с пути на село, и возложи на него ризу, понеже видяше всякаго приходяща над ним стоявша:
13 When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri,
и бысть егда принесе от пути, преидоша вси мужие Израилевы вслед Иоава, еже гнати вслед Савеа сына Вохоря.
14 who went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, and to Beth-Maacah, and all the Berim; and they gathered together, and went also after him.
И сей пройде вся колена Израилева во Авель и во Вефмаху: и вси в Харре, и вси грады собрашася, и идоша вслед его,
15 And they came and besieged him in Abel-Beth-Maacah, and they cast up a bank against the city, and it was raised in the trench; and all the people that were with Joab sapped the wall, to throw it down.
и приидоша и ополчишася на него окрест во Авели и во Вефмахе: и насыпаша землю ко граду, и ста на предстении: и вси людие иже со Иоавом помышляху низложити стену (градскую).
16 And a wise woman cried out of the city, Hear, hear: say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near hither, that I may speak with thee.
И возопи жена мудрая со стены и рече: слышите, слышите, рцыте ныне Иоаву, да приближится до зде, и возглаголю к нему.
17 And he came near to her; and the woman said, Art thou Joab? And he said, I [am he]. And she said to him, Listen to the words of thy handmaid. And he said, I am listening.
И приближися к ней (Иоав), и рече жена: ты ли еси Иоав? Он же рече: аз. И рече ему: послушай словес рабы твоея. И рече Иоав: послушаю, аз есмь.
18 And she spoke saying, They were wont to speak in old time saying, Just inquire in Abel; and so they ended.
И рече глаголющи: слово глаголаша в первых, глаголюще: вопрошаемь вопрошен бысть во Авели и в Дане, аще оскудеша, яже положиша вернии Израилевы: вопрошающе да вопросят во Авели, и тако рече, аще оскудеша:
19 I am peaceable [and] faithful in Israel: thou seekest to destroy a city and a mother in Israel. Why wilt thou swallow up the inheritance of Jehovah?
аз есмь мирная утверждений Израилевых, ты же ищеши умертвити град и матерь градов Израилевых: и почто потопляеши достояние Господне?
20 And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy.
И отвеща Иоав и рече: милостив мне, милостив мне, аще потоплю и аще разрушу:
21 The matter is not so; but a man of mount Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David: give up him only, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said to Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall.
не тако слово, яко муж с горы Ефремли, Савей сын Вохорь имя ему, и воздвиже руку свою на царя Давида: дадите ми того единаго, и отиду от града. И рече жена ко Иоаву: се, глава его свержется к тебе со стены.
22 Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast it to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
И вниде жена ко всем людем и глагола ко всему граду мудростию своею, отяти главу Савеа сына Вохоря. И отсекоша главу Савеа сына Вохоря, и свергоша ю ко Иоаву. И Иоав воструби в трубу, и разыдошася мужие от града вси в селения своя. Иоав же возвратися во Иерусалим ко царю.
23 And Joab was over all the host of Israel; and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites;
И (бе) Иоав над всею силою Израилевою, и Ванеа сын Иодаев над Хереффи и над Фелеффи,
24 and Adoram was over the levy; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
Адонирам же над данми, и Иосафат сын Ахилуфов воспоминаяй,
25 and Sheva was scribe; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;
и Суса книгочий, Садок же и Авиафар иерее,
26 and Ira also, the Jairite, was David's chief ruler.
Ирас же Иаринь бысть жрец Давидов.
