1 Kings 19
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
И возвести Ахаав Иезавели жене своей вся, елика сотвори Илиа, и яко изби пророки оружием.
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying: 'So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to-morrow about this time.'
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 And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left 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 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom-tree; and he requested for himself that he might die; and said: 'It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not 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 lay down and slept under a broom-tree; and, behold, an angel touched him, and said unto him: 'Arise and eat.'
И ляже, и успе под садом: и се, Ангел Господень коснуся ему и рече ему: востани, яждь и пий.
6 And he looked, and, behold, there was at his head a cake baked on the hot stones, and a cruse of water. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
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 came again the second time, and touched him, and said: 'Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.'
И обратися Ангел Господень вторицею, и коснуся ему, и рече ему: востани, яждь и пий, яко мног от тебе путь.
8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meal forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
И воста, и яде и пи: и иде в крепости яди тоя четыредесять дний и четыредесять нощей до горы Божия Хорив.
9 And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and He said unto him: 'What doest thou 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 said: 'I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, thrown down Thine altars, and slain Thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to 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: 'Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD.' And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind 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 a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.
и по трусе огнь, и не во огни Господь: и по огни глас хлада тонка, и тамо Господь.
13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said: 'What doest thou here, Elijah?'
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 And he said: 'I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, thrown down Thine altars, and slain Thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to 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 unto him: 'Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus; and when thou comest, thou shalt anoint Hazael to be king over Aram;
И рече Господь к нему: иди, возвратися путем своим, и изыдеши на путь пустыни Дамасковы, и помажеши Азаила на царство Сирийское,
16 and Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel; and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.
и Ииуа сына Намессиина помажеши на царство над Израилем, и Елиссеа сына Сафатова от Авелмаула помажеши вместо себе пророка:
17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth from the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay; and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.
и будет спасаемаго от оружия Азаилева убиет Ииуй, и спасаемаго от оружия Ииуина убиет Елиссей:
18 Yet will I leave seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.'
и оставиши во Израили седмь тысящ мужей, вся колена, яже не преклониша колена Ваалу, и всяка уста, яже не молишася ему.
19 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing, with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth; and Elijah passed over unto him, and cast his mantle upon 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 he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said: 'Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee.' And he said unto him: 'Go back; for what have I done to thee?'
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 And he returned from following him, and took the yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto 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.
