2 Samuel 12
1 And the Lord sent Nathan to David: and when he was come to him, he said to him: There were two men in one city, the one rich, and the other poor.
И посла Господь Нафана пророка к Давиду. И вниде к нему (и рече ему: отвещай ми, царю, ныне суд сей: ) и рече ему: два мужа беста во единем граде, един богат, а другий убог:
2 The rich man had exceeding many sheep and oxen.
и у богатаго стада бяху и буйволи мнози зело,
3 But the poor man had nothing at all but one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up, and which had grown up in his house together with his children, eating of his bread, and drinking of his cup, and sleeping in his bosom: and it was unto him as a daughter.
у убогаго же ничтоже бе, но токмо агница едина мала, юже стяжа и снабде, и вскорми ю, и возрасте с ним и с сынами его вкупе: от хлеба его ядяше и от чаши его пияше, и на лоне его почиваше, и бе ему яко дщерь:
4 And when a certain stranger was come to the rich man, he spared to take of his own sheep and oxen, to make a feast for that stranger, who was come to him, but took the poor man’s ewe, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.
и прииде некто с пути к мужу богатому, и не восхоте взяти от стад своих и от буйволиц своих на сотворение обеда путнику пришедшу к нему: но взя агницу убогаго, и уготова ю на обед мужу пришедшу к нему.
5 And David’s anger being exceedingly kindled against that man, he said to Nathan: As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this is a child of death.
И разгневася гневом зело Давид на мужа (того), и рече Давид к Нафану: жив Господь, яко сын смерти есть муж сотворивый сие:
6 He shall restore the ewe fourfold, because he did this thing, and had no pity.
и агницу возвратит седмерицею за сие, яко сотворил глагол сей, и за сие, яко не пощаде.
7 And Nathan said to David: Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from the hand of Saul,
И рече Нафан к Давиду: ты еси муж сотворивый сие: сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: Аз есмь помазавый тя в царя над Израилем, и Аз есмь избавивый тя от руки Сауловы:
8 And gave thee thy master’s house and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and Juda: and if these things be little, I shall add far greater things unto thee.
и дах ти дом господина твоего и жены господина твоего на лоно твое, и дах ти дом Израилев и Иудин: и аще мало ти есть, приложу тебе к сим:
9 Why therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
и что яко презрел еси слово Господне, еже сотворити лукавое пред очима Его? Урию Хеттеанина убил еси мечем, и жену его поял еси себе в жену, и того убил еси мечем сынов Аммоних:
10 Therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house, because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Urias the Hethite to be thy wife.
и ныне не отступит мечь от дому твоего до века: зане уничижил Мя еси и поял еси жену Урии Хеттеанина в жену себе:
11 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes I and give them to thy neighhour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
сия глаголет Господь: се, Аз воздвигну на тя злая от дому твоего, и возму жены твоя пред очима твоима и дам ближнему твоему, и будет спати со женами твоими пред солнцем сим:
12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and in the sight of the sun.
яко ты сотворил еси втайне, Аз же сотворю глаголгол сей пред всем Израилем и пред солнцем сим.
13 And David said to Nathan: I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said to David: The Lord also hath taken away thy sin: thou shalt not die.
И рече Давид к Нафану: согреших ко Господу. И рече Нафан к Давиду: и Господь отя согрешение твое, не умреши:
14 Nevertheless, because thou hast given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, for this thing, the child that is born to thee, shall surely die.
обаче яко поощряя изострил еси врагов Господних глаголом сим, и сын твой родивыйся тебе смертию умрет.
15 And Nathan returned to his house. The Lord also struck the child which the wife of Urias had borne to David, and his life was despaired of.
И отиде Нафан в дом свой. И сокруши Господь детище, еже роди жена Уриина Давиду, и разболеся.
16 And David besought the Lord for the child: and David kept a fast, and going in by himself lay upon the ground.
И взыска Давид Бога о детищи, и постися Давид постом, и вниде и водворися, и лежаше на земли:
17 And the ancients of his house came, to make him rise from the ground: but he would not, neither did he eat meat with them.
и внидоша к нему старейшины дому его воздвигнути его от земли, и не восхоте, и не яде с ними хлеба.
18 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David feared to tell him, that the child was dead. For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict himself if we tell him that the child is dead?
И бысть в день седмый, и умре отроча. И убояшася раби Давидовы поведати ему, яко умре отроча, реша бо: се, егда отроча еще живо бяше, глаголахом к нему, и не послуша гласа нашего: и како речем к нему, яко умре отроча, и сотворит злая?
19 But when David saw his servants whispering, he understood that the child was dead: and he said to his servants: Is the child dead? They answered him: He is dead.
И разуме Давид, яко отроцы его шепчут, и позна Давид, яко умре отроча. И рече Давид отроком своим: умре ли отроча? И реша: умре.
20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed and anointed himself: and when he had changed his apparel, he went into the house of the Lord: and worshipped, and then he came into his own house, and he called for bread, and ate.
И воста Давид от земли, и умыся и помазася, и измени ризы своя, и вниде в дом Божий, и поклонися ему, и вниде в дом свой, и проси ясти хлеба, и предложиша ему хлеб, и яде.
21 And his servants said to him: What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive, but when the child was dead, thou didst rise up, and eat bread.
И реша отроцы его к нему: что глагол сей, егоже сотворил еси отрочате ради, яко еще сущу отрочати живу, постился еси и плакал и бдел еси: егда же умре отроча, востал, и ял еси хлеб, и пил еси?
22 And he said: While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept for him: for I said: Who knoweth whether the Lord may not give him to me, and the child may live?
И рече Давид: егда бе отроча еще живо, постихся и плаках, яко рех: кто весть, помилует ли мя Господь и живо будет отроча?
23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Shall I be able to bring him back any more? I shall go to him rather: but he shall not return to me.
Ныне же умре, почто мне поститися? Еда возмогу возвратити е ктому? Аз имам ити к нему, тое же не возвратится ко мне.
24 And David comforted Bethsabee his wife, and went in unto her, and slept with her: I and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and the Lord loved him.
И утеши Давид Вирсавию жену свою, и вниде к ней и спа с нею, и зача и роди сына, и нарече имя ему Соломон: и Господь возлюби его.
25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name, Amiable to the Lord, because the Lord loved him.
И посла рукою Нафана пророка, и нарече имя ему Иеддеди словом Господним.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and laid close siege to the royal city.
Иоав же воева в Раввафе сынов Аммоних и взя град царства.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, saying: I have fought against Rabbath, and the city of waters is about to be taken.
И посла Иоав вестники к Давиду и рече: воевах на Равваф и взях град вод:
28 Now therefore gather thou the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and take it: lest when the city shall be wasted by me, the victory be ascribed to my name.
и ныне собери останок людий и ополчися на град, и приими его, да не аз возму град, и наречется имя мое на нем.
29 Then David gathered all the people together, and went out against Rabbath: and after fighting, he took it.
И собра Давид вся люди, и пойде в Равваф, и ополчися нань, и взя его:
30 And he took the crown of their king from his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold, set with most precious stones, and it was put upon David’s head, and the spoils of the city which were very great he carried away.
и взя венец Молхома царя их с главы его, талант злата вес его, и от камения драга, и бе на главе Давидове, и корысть изнесе из града многу зело:
31 And bringing forth the people thereof he sawed them, and drove over them chariots armed with iron: and divided them with knives, and made them pass through brickkilns: so did he to all the cities of the children of Ammon: and David returned, with all the army to Jerusalem.
и люди сущыя в нем изведе, и положи на пилы и на трезубы железны и секиры железны, и превождаше их сквозе пещь плинфяну. И тако сотвори всем градом сынов Аммоних. И возвратися Давид и весь Израиль во Иерусалим.
