< 2 Kings 3 >
1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
И Иорам сын Ахаавов воцарися над Израилем в Самарии, в лето осмоенадесять Иосафата царя Иудина, и царствова лет дванадесять,
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, but not like his father, and like his mother; for he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made.
и сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима: обаче не якоже отец его и не якоже мати его: и разруши капища Ваалова, яже сотвори отец его:
3 Nevertheless he held to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from it.
обаче ко греху Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже введе во грех Израиля, прилепися и не отступи от него.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder; and he rendered to the king of Israel the wool of one hundred thousand lambs, and of one hundred thousand rams.
И Моса царь Моавль бе нокид и даяше дань царю Израилеву, сто тысящ агнцев и сто тысящ овнов с рунами.
5 But it happened, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
И бысть по умертвии Ахаавли и отвержеся царь Моавль царя Израилева.
6 King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
И изыде царь Иорам во дни оны от Самарии и согляда Израиля,
7 He went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, "The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me against Moab to battle?" He said, "I will go up. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."
и иде, и посла ко Иосафату царю Иудину, глаголя: царь Моавль отвержеся мене: идеши ли со мною на брань на Моава? И рече: взыду: сице мне, якоже и тебе: якоже людие мои, людие твои: якоже кони мои, кони твои.
8 He said, "Which way shall we go up?" He answered, "The way of the wilderness of Edom."
И рече: киим путем взыдем? И рече: путем пустыни Едомския.
9 So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom; and they made a circuit of seven days' journey. There was no water for the army, nor for the animals that followed them.
И иде царь Израилев и царь Иудин и царь Едомль, и идоша путем седмь дний: и не бе полку воды и скотом сущым с ними.
10 The king of Israel said, "Alas. For YHWH has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab."
И рече отроком своим царь Израилев: о, яко созва Господь три сия цари идущыя предати их в руце Моавли.
11 But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of YHWH, that we may inquire of YHWH by him?" One of the king of Israel's servants answered, "Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah."
И рече Иосафат к нему царь Иудин: есть ли зде пророк Господень, и вопросим Господа им? И отвеща един отрок царя Израилева и рече: зде есть Елиссей сын Сафатов, иже возливаше воду на руце Илиине.
12 And Jehoshaphat said, "The word of YHWH is with him." So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah and the king of Edom went down to him.
И рече Иосафат: есть с ним глагол Господень. И сниде к нему царь Израилев и Иосафат царь Иудин и царь Едомль.
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, "What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother." The king of Israel said to him, "No; for YHWH has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab."
И рече Елиссей ко царю Израилеву: что мне и тебе? Иди ко пророком отца твоего и ко пророком матере твоея. И рече ему царь Израилев: еда созва Господь три цари, еже предати я в руце Моавли?
14 Elisha said, "As YHWH of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I respect the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward you, nor see you.
И рече Елиссей: жив Господь Сил емуже предстою пред Ним, яко аще бых не лице Иосафата царя Иудина аз приял, то воззрел ли бых на тя, и видел ли бых тя?
15 But now bring me a minstrel." It happened, when the minstrel played, that the hand of YHWH came on him.
И ныне приведи ми певца. И бысть егда воспеваше певец, и бысть на нем рука Господня,
16 He said, "Thus says YHWH, 'Make this valley full of trenches.'
и рече: тако глаголет Господь: сотворите поток сей рвами рвами,
17 For thus says YHWH, 'You will not see wind, neither will you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your animals.
яко тако глаголет Господь: не узрите духа, и ниже увидите дождя: и поток сей наполнится воды, и пиете вы и стяжания ваша и скоти ваши:
18 This is but a light thing in the sight of YHWH. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
и легко сие пред очима Господнима, и предам Моава в руки вашя,
19 You shall strike every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.'"
и поразите всяк град тверд, и всяко древо благо низложите, и всяк источник воды заградите, и всяку часть благу разбиете камением.
20 It happened in the morning, about the time of offering the offering, that look, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
И бысть заутра восходящей жертве, и се, воды идяху путем Едомским, и исполнися воды земля.
21 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, and upward, and stood on the border.
И вси Моавитяне услышаша, яко взыдоша тридесяти царя братися с ними. И возопиша отвсюду препоясаннии оружием и реша: ох: и сташа у предела.
22 They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water over against them as red as blood.
И ураниша заутра, и солнце возсия на воды: и виде Моав сопротив воды чермны яко кровь,
23 They said, "This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the spoil."
и рече: кровь сия есть от оружия: и бишася царие, и уби муж искренняго своего: и ныне (гряди) на корысти, Моаве.
24 When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land smiting the Moabites.
И внидоша в полк Израилев, Израилтяне же восташа. И избиша Моавлян: и побегоша от лица их: и внидоша входяще и биюще Моава,
25 They beat down the cities; and on every good piece of land they cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the springs of water, and felled all the good trees, until in Kir Hareseth only they left its stones; however the men armed with slings went about it, and struck it.
и грады разбиша, и всяку часть благу навергоша мужие камением, и наполниша ю, и всяк источник заградиша, и всяко древо благо изсекоша, донележе оставиша камение стен разбиено: и обступиша пращницы и разбиша его.
26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was too severe for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew sword, to break through to the king of Edom; but they could not.
И виде царь Моавль, яко укрепися над ним брань, и взя с собою седмь сот мужей со обнаженным оружием, еже просещися ко царю Едомску: и не возмогоша.
27 Then he took his eldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. There was great wrath against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
И поят сына своего первенца, егоже воцари вместо себе, и вознесе его во всесожжение на стене: и бысть раскаяние великое во Израили: и отступиша от него и возвратишася в землю свою.
