< 1 Samuel 4 >

1 And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and pitched beside Eben–ezer: and the Philistines pitched in Aphek.
И бысть во дни оны, и собрашася иноплеменницы противу Израиля на брань: и изыде Израиль во сретение им на брань, и ополчишася во Авенезере, и иноплеменницы ополчишася во Афеце:
2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel: and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines: and they slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.
и сразишася иноплеменницы на брани со Израилтяны, и преклонися брань, и падоша мужие Израилевы пред иноплеменники, и убиени быша в брани на селе четыри тысящы мужей.
3 And when the people were come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath Yhwh smitten us to day before the Philistines? Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of Yhwh out of Shiloh unto us, that, when it cometh among us, it may save us out of the hand of our enemies.
И приидоша людие в полк, и реша старейшины Израилевы: почто порази нас Господь днесь пред иноплеменники? Возмем кивот Бога нашего от Силома, и изыдет посреде нас и спасет ны от руки враг наших.
4 So the people sent to Shiloh, that they might bring from thence the ark of the covenant of Yhwh of Armies, which dwelleth between the cherubims: and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
И послаша людие в Силом, и взяша оттуду кивот Господа седящаго на херувимех: и (быша) тамо оба сына Илиина с кивотом Божиим, Офни и Финеес.
5 And when the ark of the covenant of Yhwh came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth rang again.
И бысть егда прииде кивот Господень в полк, и возопи весь Израиль гласом великим, и возшуме земля.
6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of Yhwh was come into the camp.
И услышаша иноплеменницы глас вопля и реша: что сей вопль великий в полце Еврейсте? И уразумеша, яко кивот Господень прииде в полк.
7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.
И убояшася иноплеменницы и реша: сии бози приидоша к ним в полк: горе нам, изми ны, Господи, днесь: яко не бысть тако вчера и третияго дне:
8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.
горе нам, кто ны измет от руки богов крепких сих? Сии суть бози, побившии Египта всякими язвами и в пустыни:
9 Be strong, and quit yourselves like men, O ye Philistines, that ye be not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been to you: quit yourselves like men, and fight.
укрепитеся и будите в мужы, иноплеменницы, яко да не поработаете Евреом, якоже поработаша нам, будите убо в мужы и бийтеся с ними.
10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled every man into his tent: and there was a very great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
И бишася с ними: и падоша мужие Израилевы пред иноплеменники, и побеже кийждо в селение свое, и бысть язва велика зело: и паде от Израиля тридесять тысящ чинов:
11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
и кивот Божий взят бысть, и оба сыны Илиины умроша, Офни и Финеес.
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothes rent, and with earth upon his head.
И тече муж от брани Иеминей, и прииде в Силом в день он, и ризы своя растерзав, и персть бе на главе его.
13 And when he came, lo, Eli sat upon a seat by the wayside watching: for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city, and told it, all the city cried out.
И прииде, и се, Илий седяше на престоле своем у дверий, смотря на путь, яко бе сердце его во ужасе (велице) о кивоте Божии. И человек вниде во град возвещая: и возопи весь град гласом великим:
14 And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What meaneth the noise of this tumult? And the man came in hastily, and told Eli.
и слыша Илий глас вопля и рече: что есть глас вопля сего? И человек потщався вниде и поведа Илию.
15 Now Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were dim, that he could not see.
И бе Илий девятидесяти осми лет, и очи его изнемогоста, и не видяше.
16 And the man said unto Eli, I am he that came out of the army, and I fled to day out of the army. And he said, What is there done, my son?
И рече Илий мужем предстоящым себе: что глас вопля сего? И муж потщався вниде ко Илию и рече ему: аз есмь пришедый из полка, и аз прибежах от брани днесь. И рече Илий: что бывший глагол, чадо?
17 And the messenger answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
И отвеща отрочищь и рече: побежаша мужие Израилевы от лица иноплеменников, и язва велия бысть в людех, и оба сыны твоя умроша, и кивот Божий взят есть.
18 And it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
И бысть егда помяну о кивоте Божии, и паде (Илий) с престола взнак близ дверий, и сокрушися хребет его, и умре, яко стар бе человек и тяжек: и той суди Израилеви четыредесять лет.
19 And his daughter in law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father in law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.
И сноха его жена Финеесова заченшая родити, и слыша весть, яко взят бысть кивот Божий и яко умре свекор ея и муж ея, и восплакася (горько), и роди, яко обратишася на ню болезни ея.
20 And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for thou hast born a son. But she answered not, neither did she regard it.
И во время, внегда умираше, реша ей жены предстоящыя ей: не бойся, яко сына родила еси. И не отвеща, и не разуме сердце ея.
21 And she named the child I–chabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel: because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father in law and her husband.
И нарече отрочища Уехавоф: и реша о кивоте Божии и о свекре ея и о мужи ея: преселися слава от Израиля, яко взятся кивот Господень, и яко умре свекор ея и муж ея.
22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel: for the ark of God is taken.
И рече: преселися слава Израилева, яко взят бысть кивот Божий.
