< 2 Chronicles 32 >
1 After these things, and this faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself.
И по словесех сих и по истине сей, прииде Сеннахирим царь Ассирийский, и прииде на Иудею, и ополчися на грады крепкия хотя взяти их.
2 And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
И виде Езекиа, яко прииде Сеннахирим, и лице его воевати на Иерусалим:
3 he took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which were without the city; and they helped him.
и советова со старейшины своими и с сильными, да заключат воды источников, иже беша вне града: и соизволиша ему.
4 So there was gathered much people together, and they stopped all the fountains, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come and find much water?
И собра много людий, и заключи воды источников и поток текущь посреде града, глаголя: да не приидет царь Ассирийский, и обрящет вод много, и укрепится.
5 And he took courage, and built up all the wall that was broken down, and raised it up to the towers, and the other wall without, and strengthened Millo [in] the city of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.
И укрепися Езекиа, и созда вся стены, яже быша разсыпаны, и столпы, и отвне предстение ино, и укрепи разрушенная града Давидова, и уготова оружия многа:
6 And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the broad place at the gate of the city, and spake comfortably to them, saying,
и постави началники бранем над людьми, и собрашася к нему на площадь врат дебри, и глагола в сердца их глаголя:
7 Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there is a greater with us than with him:
укрепитеся и мужайтеся и не устрашайтеся, ниже ужасайтеся от лица царя Ассирийска и от лица всего множества, еже с ним: яко множайшии с нами суть неже с ним:
8 with him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
с ним мышца плотская, с нами же Господь Бог наш, еже спасати и поборати на брани нашей. И укрепишася людие словесы Езекии царя Иудина.
9 After this did Sennacherib king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem, (now he was before Lachish, and all his power with him, ) unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that were at Jerusalem, saying,
И по сих посла Сеннахирим царь Ассирийский рабы своя во Иерусалим, сам же со всеми вои своими обстояше Лахис, и посла ко Езекии царю Иудину и ко всему Иуде, иже во Иерусалиме, глаголя:
10 Thus saith Sennacherib king of Assyria, Whereon do ye trust, that ye abide the siege in Jerusalem?
сия глаголет Сеннахирим царь Ассирийский: на что вы уповаете и седите во обстоянии во Иерусалиме?
11 Doth not Hezekiah persuade you, to give you over to die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God shall deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Ни ли Езекиа прельщает вас, да предаст вы в смерть и в глад и жажду, глаголя: Господь Бог наш спасет нас от руки царя Ассирийска?
12 Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and upon it shall ye burn incense?
Не сей ли есть Езекиа, иже разори олтари Его и вышняя Его, и повеле Иуде и живущым во Иерусалиме, глаголя: олтарем пред олтарем сим покланяйтеся и в нем кадите фимиам?
13 Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands any ways able to deliver their land out of mine hand?
Или не весте сего, что аз сотворих и отцы мои всем людем земли? Еда могуще возмогоша бози языков всея земли избавити люди своя от руки моея?
14 Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of mine hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of mine hand?
Кто во всех бозех языков сих, ихже искорениша отцы мои? Еда возмогоша избавити люди своя от руки моея, и како может Бог ваш избавити вас от руки моея?
15 Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither believe ye him: for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your God deliver you out of mine hand?
Ныне убо да не прельщает вас Езекиа и да не творит вас уповати по сему, и не веруйте ему: аще бо ни един бог всякаго языка и царства возможе избавити люди своя от руки моея и от руку отец моих, то ниже Бог ваш возможет избавити вас от руки моея.
16 And his servants spake yet more against the LORD God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
И ина (многа) глаголаша раби его противу Господа Бога и противу Езекии раба Его.
17 He wrote also letters, to rail on the LORD, the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of the lands which have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of mine hand.
И послания написа поношая Господа Бога Израилева, и рече Нань, глаголя: якоже бози язык земли не могоша избавити людий своих от руки моея, тако ниже Бог Езекиин избавит люди Своя от руки моея.
18 And they cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.
И возопи воплем великим языком Иудейским к людем, иже седяху на стенах Иерусалимлих, да устрашит их и ужасит, и возмет град:
19 And they spake of the God of Jerusalem, as of the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of men’s hands.
и глагола на Бога Иерусалимля, якоже и на богов людий земли, дела рук человеческих.
20 And Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, prayed because of this, and cried to heaven.
И помолися Езекиа царь и Исаиа сын Амосов пророк о сих, и возопиша на небо.
21 And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains, in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
И посла Господь Ангела, и порази всех мужей храбрых и бранников, и началников и воевод в полцех царя Ассирийска: и возврати лице его со стыдом на землю его, и прииде в дом бога своего, и сынове его изшедшии из чрева его погубиша его мечем.
22 Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all [other], and guided them on every side.
И спасе Господь Езекию и обитающих во Иерусалиме от руки Сеннахирима царя Ассирийска и от руку всех, и подаде им покой окрест.
23 And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
И мнози приношаху дары Господу во Иерусалим и даяния Езекии царю Иудину, и возвышен бысть пред очесы всех языков по сих.
24 In those days Hezekiah was sick even unto death: and he prayed unto the LORD; and he spake unto him, and gave him a sign.
Во днех оных разболеся Езекиа даже до смерти и помолися ко Господу: и услыша его и даде ему знамение.
25 But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
И не по воздаянию, еже даде ему, воздаде Езекиа, но вознесеся сердце его, и бысть на него гнев и на Иуду и на Иерусалим.
26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
И смирися Езекиа от высоты сердца своего сам и живущии во Иерусалиме, и не прииде на них гнев Господень во дни Езекиины.
27 And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honour: and he provided him treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of goodly vessels;
И бысть Езекиеви богатство и слава многа зело: и сокровища себе собра сребра и злата и камения честнаго, и ароматы, и оружия хранилницы, и сосуды драгоценны,
28 storehouses also for the increase of corn and wine and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and flocks in folds.
и житницы жит, пшеницы и вина и елеа, и села, и ясли всякому скоту, и ограды стадом,
29 Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance: for God had given him very much substance.
и грады, яже созда себе, и строения овцам и волом множество: зане даде ему Господь собрания многа зело.
30 This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down on the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
Той Езекиа загради исход воды Геона вышняго и проведе ю в низ к полудню града Давидова. И преуспе Езекиа во всех делех своих.
31 Howbeit in [the business of] the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart.
И тако послом князей от Вавилона, иже послани бяху к нему, да вопросят его о чудеси, еже случися на земли, остави его Господь, да искусит его уведати, яже в сердцы его.
32 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his good deeds, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Прочая же словес Езекииных, и щедроты его, се, писана суть в пророчестве Исаии пророка сына Амосова и в книзе царей Иудиных и Израилевых.
33 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the ascent of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
И успе Езекиа со отцы своими, и погребоша его на восходех гробов сынов Давидовых: и славу и честь даша ему в смерти его весь Иуда и живущии во Иерусалиме. И воцарися Манассиа сын его вместо его.
