Judges 21
1 And the men of Israel have sworn in Mizpeh, saying, “None of us gives his daughter to Benjamin for a wife.”
И сынове Израилевы кляшася в Массифе, глаголюще: муж от нас да не даст Вениамину дщере своея в жену.
2 And the people come to Beth-El, and sit there until the evening before God, and lift up their voice, and weep [with] a great weeping,
И приидоша людие в Вефиль и седеша тамо до вечера пред Богом: и воздвигоша глас свой, и плакашася плачем велиим, и рекоша:
3 and say, “Why, O YHWH, God of Israel, has this been in Israel—to be lacking one tribe from Israel today?”
вскую, Господи Боже Израилев, бысть сице днесь во Израили, еже оскудети от Израиля племени единому?
4 And it comes to pass on the next day, that the people rise early, and build an altar there, and cause burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend.
И бысть на утрия, и обутреша людие, и соградиша тамо олтарь, и вознесоша всесожжение спасения, и рекоша сынове Израилевы:
5 And the sons of Israel say, “Who [is] he that has not come up in the assembly to YHWH out of all the tribes of Israel?” For the great oath has been concerning him who has not come up to YHWH to Mizpeh, saying, “He is surely put to death.”
кто не взыде в сонм от всех племен Израилевых ко Господу? Яко велика клятва бяше не вшедшым ко Господу в Массифу, глаголюще: смертию да умрет.
6 And the sons of Israel sigh concerning their brother Benjamin, and say, “Today there has been one tribe cut off from Israel,
И умилишася сынове Израилевы о Вениамине брате своем, и рекоша: изсечено днесь едино племя от Израиля:
7 what do we do for them—for those who are left—for wives, since we have sworn by YHWH not to give to them from our daughters for wives?”
что сотворим оставшымся о женах? И мы кляхомся Господем не дати им от дщерей наших в жены.
8 And they say, “Who is [that] one out of the tribes of Israel who has not come up to YHWH to Mizpeh?” And behold, none has come to the camp from Jabesh-Gilead—to the assembly.
И рекоша: кто един от племен Израилевых, иже не взыде ко Господу в Массифу? И се, ни един прииде в полк от Иависа Галаадова в сонм.
9 And the people numbered themselves, and behold, there is no man from the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead.
И соглядаша людий, и се, не бяше тамо мужа от живущих во Иависе Галаадове.
10 And the congregation sends twelve thousand men of the sons of valor there, and commands them, saying, “Go—and you have struck the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead by the mouth of the sword, even the women and the infants.
И послаша тамо сонм дванадесять тысящ мужей от сынов силы и заповедаша им, глаголюще: идите и избийте живущыя во Иависе Галаадове оружием жены и народы:
11 And this [is] the thing which you do; every male, and every woman knowing the lying of a male, you devote.”
и сие сотворите: всяк мужеский пол и всяку жену, познавшую ложе мужеско, побиете: девицы же снабдите. И сотвориша тако.
12 And they find four hundred young women, virgins, out of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead, who have not known man by the lying of a male, and they bring them to the camp at Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan.
И обретоша от живущих во Иависе Галаадове четыре ста отроковиц дев, яже не познаша ложа мужеска: и приведоша я в полк в Силом, иже есть в земли Ханаани.
13 And all the congregation sends [word] and speaks to the sons of Benjamin who [are] in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaims peace to them;
И послаша весь сонм и глаголаша к сыном Вениаминовым, иже в камени Реммони, и призваша их с миром.
14 and Benjamin turns back at that time, and they give to them the women whom they have kept alive of the women of Jabesh-Gilead, and they have not found for [all of] them so.
И возвратися Вениамин к сыном Израилевым в то время, и даша им сынове Израилевы жены, яже живо сохраниша от дщерей Иависа Галаадова: и угодно бысть им тако.
15 And the people sighed concerning Benjamin, for YHWH had made a breach among the tribes of Israel.
И людие умилишася о Вениамине, яко сотвори Господь истребление в племенех Израилевых.
16 And [the] elderly of the congregation say, “What do we do to the remnant for wives—for the women have been destroyed out of Benjamin?”
И рекоша старейшины сонма: что сотворим оставшым о женах? Яко погибе от Вениамина жена:
17 And they say, “A possession of an escaped party [is] to Benjamin, and a tribe is not blotted out from Israel;
и како будет наследие уцелевших от Вениамина, да не погибнет племя от Израиля?
18 and we are not able to give wives to them out of our daughters, for the sons of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed [is] he who is giving a wife to Benjamin.”
И мы не возможем дати им жен от дщерей наших, яко кляшася сынове Израилевы, глаголюще: проклят даяй жену Вениамину.
19 And they say, “Behold, a festival of YHWH [is] in Shiloh, from time to time, which [is] on the north of Beth-El, at the rising of the sun, by the highway which is going up from Beth-El to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.”
И рекоша: се, праздник Господень в Силоме от дний во дни, иже есть от севера Вефиля, на восток солнца на пути восходящем от Вефиля в Сихем, и от юга Левоны.
20 And they command the sons of Benjamin, saying, “Go—and you have laid wait in the vineyards,
И заповедаша сыном Вениаминим, глаголюще: идите и засядите в виноградех,
21 and have seen, and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances—then you have gone out from the vineyards, and each caught his wife out of the daughters of Shiloh for yourselves, and have gone to the land of Benjamin;
и узрите, и се, егда изыдут дщери живущих в Силоме плясати в лики, да изыдете из виноградов и восхитите муж жену себе от дщерей Силомлих, и идите на землю Вениаминю:
22 and it has been, when their fathers or their brothers come in to plead to us, that we have said to them, Favor us [by] them, for we have not each taken his wife in battle, for you have not given [wives] to them at this time, [so] you are [not] guilty.”
и будет егда приидут отцы их или братия их судитися к нам, и речем им: помилуйте нас ими, яко не взя муж жены своея в полце: понеже вы не дали есте им яко жребий, согрешисте.
23 And the sons of Benjamin do so, and take women according to their number, out of the dancers whom they have seized; and they go, and return to their inheritance, and build the cities, and dwell in them.
И сотвориша тако сынове Вениамини, и пояша жены по числу своему от пляшущих, яже восхитиша: и отидоша и возвратишася в наследие свое, и создаша грады и вселишася в них.
24 And the sons of Israel go up and down there at that time, each to his tribe, and to his family; and they each go out there to his inheritance.
И отидоша оттуду сынове Израилевы в то время, муж во племя свое и в род свой: и изыде оттуду муж в наследие свое.
25 In those days there is no king in Israel; each does that which is right in his own eyes.
И в тыя дни не бяше царя во Израили: муж еже угодно пред очима его, творяше.
