Jonah 1
1 Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
И бысть слово Господне ко Ионе сыну Амафиину, глаголя:
2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
востани и иди в Ниневию град великий и проповеждь в нем, яко взыде вопль злобы его ко Мне.
3 But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD; and he went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
И воста Иона, еже бежати в Фарсис от лица Господня и сниде во Июппию и обрете корабль идущь в Фарсис, и даде наем свой и вниде в онь плыти с ними в Фарсис от лица Господня.
4 But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.
И Господь воздвиже ветр велий на мори, и бысть буря великая в мори, и корабль бедствоваше еже сокрушитися.
5 Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it unto them. But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.
И убояшася корабельницы, и возопиша кийждо к богу своему, и изметание сотвориша сосудов иже в корабли в море, еже облегчитися от них: Иона же сниде во дно корабля и спаше ту и храпляше.
6 So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us, that we perish not.
И прииде к нему кормчий и рече ему что ты храплеши? Востани и моли Бога твоего, яко да спасет ны Бог, да не погибнем.
7 And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
И рече кийждо ко искреннему своему приидите, вержим жребия и уразумеем, кого ради есть зло сие на нас? И метнуша жребия, и паде жребий на Иону.
8 Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil is upon us; what is thine occupation? and whence comest thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?
И реша к нему возвести нам, кого ради сие зло на нас, что твое делание есть, и откуду грядеши и камо идеши, и от коея страны и от киих людий еси ты?
9 And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land.
И рече к ним раб Господень есмь аз и Господа Бога небеснаго аз чту, иже сотвори море и сушу.
10 Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him, What is this that thou hast done? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
И убояшася мужие страхом великим и реша к нему что сие сотворил еси? Зане разумеша мужие, яко от лица Господня бежаше, яко возвести им.
11 Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea grew more and more tempestuous.
И реша к нему: что тебе сотворим, и утолится море от нас? Зане море восхождаше и воздвизаше паче волнение.
12 And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
И рече к ним Иона: возмите мя и вверзите в море, и утолится море от вас понеже познах аз, яко мене ради волнение сие великое на вы есть.
13 Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not: for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them.
И нуждахуся мужие, возвратитися к земли, и не можаху, яко море восхождаше и воздвизашеся паче на них.
14 Wherefore they cried unto the LORD, and said, We beseech thee, O LORD, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man’s life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O LORD, hast done as it pleased thee.
И возопиша ко Господеви и реша: никакоже, Господи, да не погибнем души ради человека сего, и не даждь на нас крове праведныя: зане Ты, Господи, якоже восхотел, сотворил еси.
15 So they took up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging.
И взяша Иону и ввергоша его в море, и преста море от волнения своего.
16 Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice unto the LORD, and made vows.
И убояшася мужие страхом великим Господа и пожроша жертву Господеви и помолишася молитвами.
17 And the LORD prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah; and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
И повеле Господь киту великому пожрети Иону. И бе Иона во чреве китове три дни и три нощи.
