1 Samuel 8
1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he appointed his sons judges to Israel;
И бысть егда состареся Самуил, и постави сыны своя судити Израилеви.
2 and the name of his firstborn son was, Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah, —they were judges in Beer-sheba.
И сия имена сыном его: первенец Иоиль, и имя второму Авиа, судии в Вирсавеи.
3 Howbeit his sons walked not in his ways, but stooped to extortion, —and took bribes, and perverted judgment.
И не поидоша сынове его путем его: и уклонишася вслед лихоимания, и приимаху дары, и развращаху суды.
4 So then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, —and came unto Samuel, to Ramah;
И собрашася мужие Израилевы, и приидоша к Самуилу во Армафем
5 and said unto him—Lo! thou, art old, and, thy sons, walk not in thy ways: Now, appoint for us a king to judge us, like all the nations.
и реша ему: се, ты состарелся еси, сынове же твои не ходят по пути твоему: и ныне постави над нами царя, да судит ны, якоже и прочии языки.
6 But the thing was displeasing in the eyes of Samuel, when they said, Give unto us a king to judge us. So Samuel prayed unto Yahweh.
И бысть лукав глагол пред очима Самуиловыма, яко реша: даждь нам царя, да судит ны. И помолися Самуил ко Господу.
7 And Yahweh said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people, in all that they shall say unto thee, —for, not thee, have they rejected, but, me, have they rejected, from being king over them.
И рече Господь Самуилу: послушай гласа людий, якоже глаголют к тебе, яко не тебе уничижиша, но Мене уничижиша, еже не царствовати Ми над ними:
8 According to all the doings which they have done, from the day I brought them up out of Egypt, even until this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so, are they doing even unto thee.
по всем делом, яже сотвориша Ми, от негоже дне изведох их из земли Египетски до днешняго дне, и оставиша Мя, и послужиша богом иным, тако тии творят и тебе:
9 Now, therefore, hearken to their voice, —save that thou, enter protest, against them, and tell them the manner of the king who will reign over them.
и ныне послушай гласа их: обаче засвидетелствуя засвидетелствуеши им и возвестиши им правду цареву, иже царствовати будет над ними.
10 So then Samuel spake all the words of Yahweh unto the people, who were asking of him, a king.
И рече Самуил вся словеса Господня к людем просящым от него царя,
11 And he said, This, will be the manner of the king who will reign over you, —Your sons, will he take and appoint for himself, as his charioteers and as his horsemen, and they shall run before his chariots;
и глагола (им): сие будет оправдание царево, иже царствовати имать над вами: сыны вашя возмет и поставит я колесничники своя, и на кони всадит их, и предтекущих пред колесницами его:
12 and he will appoint for himself, princes of thousands, and princes of fifties, —and to plough his fields, and to reap his harvest, and to make his weapons of war, and the instruments of his chariots;
и поставит я себе сотники и тысящники и жателми жатвы своея, и оымут оыманием гроздия его, и творити орудия воинская его и орудия колесниц его:
13 And, your daughters, will he take, —as perfumers and as cooks, and as bakers;
и дщери вашя возмет в мироварницы и в поварницы и в хлебницы:
14 And, your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, the best of them, will he take, and give to his servants;
и села ваша и винограды вашя и масличины вашя благия возмет и даст рабом своим:
15 And, your seed, and your vineyards, will he tithe, and give to his courtiers and to his servants;
и семена ваша и винограды вашя одесятствует и даст скопцем своим и рабом своим:
16 And, your men-servants, and your maidservants, and your oxen, even the goodliest, and your asses, will he take, —and put them to his work;
и рабы вашя и рабыни вашя и стада ваша благая и ослы вашя отимет и одесятствует на дела своя:
17 Your flocks, will he tithe, —and, ye yourselves, shall become his servants.
и пажити вашя одесятствует, и вы будете ему раби:
18 Then will ye make outcry, in that day, because of your king whom ye have chosen for yourselves, —and Yahweh will not answer you, in that day.
и возопиете в день он от лица царя вашего, егоже избрасте себе, и не услышит вас Господь в день он, яко вы сами избрасте себе царя.
19 But the people refused to hearken unto the voice of Samuel, —and they said—Nay! but, a king, shall be over us:
И не восхотеша людие послушати Самуила и реша ему: ни, но царь да будет над нами,
20 so shall, even we, become like all the nations, —and our king shall judge us, and go forth before us, and fight our battles.
и будем и мы якоже вси языцы: и судити имать нас царь наш, и изыдет пред нами, и поборет поборением о нас.
21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, —and spake them in the ears of Yahweh.
И слыша Самуил вся глаголы людий и глагола я во ушы Господеви.
22 And Yahweh said unto Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel: Go ye, every man to his own city.
И рече Господь к Самуилу: послушай гласа их, и постави им царя. И рече Самуил к мужем Израилевым: да идет кийждо вас во свой град.
