< Numbers 21 >

1 And when king Arad the Chanaanite, who dwelt towards the south, had heard this, to wit, that Israel was come by the way of the spies, he fought against them, and overcoming them carried off their spoils.
И услыша Хананей царь Арадский живый при пустыни, яко прииде Израиль путем Афаримским, и ратова противу Израиля, и взя от них плен.
2 But Israel binding himself by vow to the Lord, said: It thou wilt deliver this people into my hand, I will utterly destroy their cities.
И обещася Израиль обетом Господу и рече: аще мне предаси люди сия подручны, погублю их и грады их.
3 And the Lord heard the prayers of Israel, and delivered up the Chanaanite, and they cut them off and destroyed their cities: and they called the name of that place Horma, that is to say, Anathema.
И услыша Господь глас Израилев и предаде Хананеа подручна ему: и опустоши его и грады его, и прозва има месту тому Запустение.
4 And they marched from mount Hor, by the way that leadeth to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom. And the people began to be weary of their journey and labour:
И воздвигшеся от Ора горы путем иже к морю Чермному, обыдоша землю Едомлю: и малодушествоваша людие на пути,
5 And speaking against God and Moses, they said: Why didst thou bring us out of Egypt, to die in the wilderness? There is no bread, nor have we any waters: our soul now loatheth this very light food.
и роптаху людие на Бога и на Моисеа, глаголюще: вскую извел еси ны из Египта убити нас в пустыни, яко несть хлеба, ни воды? И душа наша негодует о хлебе сем тщем.
6 Wherefore the Lord sent among the people fiery serpents, which bit them and killed many of them.
И посла Господь на люди змиев умерщвляющих, и угрызаху людий: и умроша люди мнози от сынов Израилевых.
7 Upon which they came to Moses, and said: We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and thee: pray that he may take away these serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
И пришедше людие к Моисеови глаголаша: согрешихом, яко роптахом на Господа и на тя: помолися убо ко Господу, да отженет от нас змии. И помолися Моисей ко Господу о людех.
8 And the Lord said to him: Make brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: whosoever being struck shall look on it, shall live.
И рече Господь к Моисею: сотвори себе змию (медяну) и положи ю на знамя: и будет аще угрызет змия человека, всяк угрызенный видев ю жив будет.
9 Moses therefore made a brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: which when they that were bitten looked upon, they were healed.
И сотвори Моисей змию медяну и постави ю на знамени: и бысть егда угрызаше змия человека, и взираше на змию медяну, и оживаше.
10 And the children of Israel setting forwards camped in Oboth.
И воздвигошася сынове Израилевы, и ополчишася во Овофе:
11 And departing thence they pitched their tents in Jeabarim, in the wilderness, that faceth Moab toward the east.
и воздвигшеся от Овофа, ополчишася во Ахалгеи об ону страну пустыни, яже есть пред лицем Моавитским, на восток солнца:
12 And removing from thence, they came to the torrent Zared:
и оттуду воздвигошася, и ополчишася в дебри Заред:
13 Which they left and encamped over against Arnon, which is in the desert and standeth out on the borders of the Amorrhite. For Arnon is the border of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorrhites.
и оттуду воздвигшеся, ополчишася об ону страну Арнона в пустыни, яже исходит от предел Аморрейских: есть бо Арнон предел Моавль между Моавом и между Аморреом.
14 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: As he did in the Red Sea, so will he do in the streams of Amen.
Сего ради глаголется в книзе брань Господня: Зоову попали, и потоки Арнони,
15 The rocks of the torrents were bowed down that they might rest in Ar, and lie down in the borders of the Moabites.
и потоки устрои в селение Ир, и прилежит пределом Моавлим.
16 When they went from that place, the well appeared whereof the Lord said to Moses: Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
И оттуду (воздвигошася) ко Кладязю: сей есть кладязь, о немже рече Господь к Моисею: собери люди, и дам им воду пити.
17 Then Israel sung this song: Let the well spring up. They sung thereto:
Тогда воспе Израиль песнь сию у кладязя: начинайте ему:
18 The well, which the princes dug, and the chiefs of the people prepared by the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staves. And they marched from the wilderness to Mathana.
кладязь, ископаша его князи, изсекоша его царие язычестии во царствии их, внегда обладати ими. И от кладязя (воздвигошася) в Манфанаил:
19 From Mathana unto Nahaliel: from Nahaliel unto Bamoth.
и от Манфанаила в Наадиил, и от Наадиила в Вамоф:
20 From Bamoth, is a valley in the country of Moab, to the top of Phasga, which looked towards the desert.
и от Вамофа в Напин, иже есть на поли Моавли, от верха Изсеченаго, зрящаго пред лице пустыни.
21 And Israel sent messengers to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, saying:
И посла Моисей послы к Сиону царю Аморрейску, словесы мирными глаголя:
22 I beseech thee that I may have leave to pass through thy land: we will not go aside into the fields or the vineyards, we will not drink waters of the wells, we will go the king’s highway, till we be past thy borders.
да пройдем сквозе землю твою, путем пойдем: не уклонимся ни на села, ни на винограды, не испием воды от кладязь твоих: путем царским пойдем, дондеже пройдем пределы твоя.
23 And he would not grant that Israel should pass by his borders: but rather gathering an army, went forth to meet them in the desert, and came to Jasa, and fought against them.
И не даде Сион Израилю проити сквозе пределы своя: и собра Сион вся люди своя, и изыде ополчитися на Израиля в пустыню: и прииде во Иассан, и ополчися на Израиля.
24 And he was slain by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jeboc, and to the confines of the children of Ammon: for the borders of the Ammonites, were kept with a strong garrison.
И порази его Израиль убийством меча, и обладаше землею его от Арнона до Иавока, даже до сынов Амманих: яко Иазир пределы сынов Амманих суть.
25 So Israel took all his cities, and dwelt in the cities of the Amorrhite, to wit, in Hesebon, and in the villages thereof.
И взя Израиль вся грады сия: и вселися Израиль во всех градех Аморрейских, во Есевоне и во всех подлежащих ему:
26 Hesebon was the city of Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, who fought against the king of Moab: and took all the land, that had been of his dominions, as far as the Arnon.
есть бо Есевон град Сиона царя Аморрейска: и сей повоева царя Моавля прежде и взя всю землю его от Ароира даже до Арнона.
27 Therefore it is said in the proverb: Come into Hesebon, let the city of Sehon be built and set up:
Сего ради рекут приточницы: приидите во Есевон, да соградится и созиждется град Сион:
28 A fire is gone out of Hesebon, a flame from the city of Sehon, and hath consumed Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the high places of the Arnon.
яко огнь изыде от Есевона и пламень от града Сиона, и пояде даже до Моава, и пожре столпы Арнонския:
29 Woe to thee Moab: thou art undone, O people of Chamos. He hath given his sons to flight, and his daughters into captivity to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites.
горе тебе, Моаве, погибосте, людие Хамосовы: продани быша сынове их в заключение и дщери их пленницы царю Аморрейскому Сиону:
30 Their yoke is perished from Hesebon unto Dibon, they came weary to Nophe, and unto Medaba.
и семя их погибнет, Есевон даже до Девона: и жены их еще разожгоша огнь на Моава.
31 So Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorrhite.
Вселися же Израиль во вся грады Аморрейски:
32 And Moses sent some to take a view of Jazer: and they took the villages of it, and conquered the inhabitants.
и посла Моисей соглядати Иазира: и взяша его и села его, и изгнаша Аморреа живущаго тамо:
33 And they turned themselves, and went up by the way of Basan, and Og the king of Basan came against them with all his people, to fight in Edrai.
и возвратившеся, приидоша путем в Васан. И изыде Ог, царь Васанский, противу им и вси людие его на брань во Едраин.
34 And the Lord said to Moses: Fear him not, for I have delivered him and all his people, and his country into thy hand: and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, the inhabitant of Hesebon.
И рече Господь к Моисею: не убойся его, яко в руце твои предах его и вся люди его и всю землю его: и сотвориши ему, якоже сотворил еси Сиону царю Аморрейску, иже живяше во Есевоне.
35 So they slew him also with his sons, and all his people, not letting any one escape, and they possessed his land.
И порази его и сыны его и вся люди его, даже не оста в них живый: и наследиша землю его.
