< Kings II 12 >

1 And the Lord sent Nathan the prophet to David; and he went in to him, and said to him, There were two men in one city, 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 And the rich [man] had very many flocks and herds.
и у богатаго стада бяху и буйволи мнози зело,
3 But the poor [man had] only one little ewe lamb, which he had purchased, and preserved, and reared; an it grew up with himself and his children in common; it ate of his bread and drank of his cup, and slept in his bosom, and was to 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 a traveller came to the rich man, and he spared to take of his flocks and of his herds, to dress for the traveller that came to him; and he took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that came 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 was greatly moved with anger against the man; and David said to Nathan, [As] the Lord lives, the man that did this thing shall surely die.
И разгневася гневом зело Давид на мужа (того), и рече Давид к Нафану: жив Господь, яко сын смерти есть муж сотворивый сие:
6 And he shall restore the lamb sevenfold, because he has not spared.
и агницу возвратит седмерицею за сие, яко сотворил глагол сей, и за сие, яко не пощаде.
7 And Nathan said to David, You are the man that has done this. Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I anointed you to be king over Israel, and I rescued you out 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 I gave you the house of your lord, and the wives of your lord into your bosom, and I gave to you the house of Israel and Juda; and if that had been little, I would have given you yet more.
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 have you set at nothing the word of the Lord, to do that which is evil in his eyes? you have slain Urias the Chettite with the sword, and you have taken his wife to be your wife, and you have 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 Now therefore the sword shall not depart from your house for ever, because you has set me at nothing, and you have taken the wife of Urias the Chettite, to be your 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 says the Lord, Behold, I will raise up against you evil out of your house, and I will take your wives before your eyes, and will give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your 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 you did it secretly, but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and before 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, And the Lord has put away your sin; you shall not die.
И рече Давид к Нафану: согреших ко Господу. И рече Нафан к Давиду: и Господь отя согрешение твое, не умреши:
14 Only because you have given great occasion of provocation to the enemies of the Lord by this thing, your son also that is born to you shall surely die.
обаче яко поощряя изострил еси врагов Господних глаголом сим, и сын твой родивыйся тебе смертию умрет.
15 And Nathan departed to his house. And the Lord struck the child, which the wife of Urias the Chettite bore to David, and it was ill.
И отиде Нафан в дом свой. И сокруши Господь детище, еже роди жена Уриина Давиду, и разболеся.
16 And David enquired of God concerning the child, and David fasted, and went in and lay all night upon the ground.
И взыска Давид Бога о детищи, и постися Давид постом, и вниде и водворися, и лежаше на земли:
17 And the elders of his house arose [and went] to him to raise him up from the ground, but he would not [rise], nor did he eat bread 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 were afraid to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive we spoke to him, and he listened not to our voice; and you should we tell him that the child is dead?—so would he do [himself] harm.
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 And David understood that his servants were whispering, and David perceived that the child was dead: and David said to his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, 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 rose up from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his raiment, and went into the house of God, and worshipped him; and went into his own house, and called for bread to eat, and they set bread before him and he 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 [is] this thing that you have done concerning the child? while it was yet living you did fast, and weep, and watch: and when the child was dead you did rise up, and did eat bread, and drink.
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 David said, While the child yet lived, I fasted and wept; for I said, Who knows if the Lord will pity me, and the child 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 it is dead, why should I fast thus? shall I be able to bring him back again? I shall go to him, 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 Bersabee his wife, and he went in to her, and lay with her; and she conceived and bore a son, and he called his named 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 Jeddedi, for the Lord's sake.
И посла рукою Нафана пророка, и нарече имя ему Иеддеди словом Господним.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Иоав же воева в Раввафе сынов Аммоних и взя град царства.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbath, and taken the city of waters.
И посла Иоав вестники к Давиду и рече: воевах на Равваф и взях град вод:
28 And now gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, an take it beforehand; lest I take the city first, and my name be called upon it.
и ныне собери останок людий и ополчися на град, и приими его, да не аз возму град, и наречется имя мое на нем.
29 And David gathered all the people, and went to Rabbath, and fought against it, and took it.
И собра Давид вся люди, и пойде в Равваф, и ополчися нань, и взя его:
30 And he took the crown of Molchom their king from off his head, and the weight of it was a talent of gold, with precious stones, and it was upon the head of David; and he carried forth very much spoil of the city.
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 he brought forth the people that were in it, and put them under the saw, and under iron harrows, and axes of iron, and made them pass through the brick-kiln: and thus he did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned 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.
