< 1 Samuel 10 >

1 Then Samuel took a small jar of olive oil and poured [some of] it on Saul’s head. Then he kissed Saul [on the cheek], and told him, “I am doing this because Yahweh has chosen you to be the leader of his Israeli people.
И взя Самуил сосуд с елеем, и возлия на главу его, и лобыза его, и рече ему: не помаза ли тебе Господь на царство людем Своим иже во Израили? И ты царствовати будеши в людех Господних, и ты спасеши я от руки враг их окрест: и сие тебе знамение, яко помаза тя Господь над наследием Своим в князя:
2 [And this will prove it to you]: When you leave me today, when you arrive near Rachel’s tomb at Zelzah, in the area where the descendants of Benjamin live, you will meet two men. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys have been found, but now your father is worrying about you, and he is asking people, “Have you seen my son?’”
егда отидеши днесь от мене, обрящеши два мужа при гробех Рахилиных в пределех Вениаминих в Силоме, в Вакалафе скачущих зелно, и рекут тебе: обретошася ослята, ихже ходисте искати: и се, отец твой отверже глагол о ослятех и зело печется вас ради, глаголя: что сотворю о сыне моем?
3 When you arrive at the [large] oak tree at Tabor [town], you will see three men coming toward you. They will be on their way to [worship] God at Bethel [town]. One of them will be leading three young goats, one will be carrying three loaves of bread, and one will be carrying a container of wine.
И отидеши оттуду, и далее приидеши до дубравы Фавора, и обрящеши тамо три мужы восходящыя к Богу в Вефиль, единаго ведуща трое козлят, а другаго несуща три вретища хлебов, а третияго несуща мех вина:
4 They will greet you, and they will offer you two of the loaves of bread. Accept them.
и вопросят тя яже о мире, и дадут ти два начатка хлебов, и возмеши от рук их:
5 When you arrive at the hill [where people worship] God near Gibeah [town], where there is the camp where the Philistine soldiers stay, you will meet a group of prophets who will be coming down from the altar on top of the hill. There will be people in front of them who will be playing [various musical instruments]: a harp, a tambourine, a flute, and a lyre. And all of them will be speaking messages that come directly from God.
и по сих да взыдеши на холм Божий, идеже есть собрание иноплеменник, тамо началницы иноплеменничи: и будет егда внидеши тамо во град, срящеши лик пророков исходящих от вамы, и пред ними свирели и тимпаны, и сопели и гусли, и тии прорицающии:
6 At that time the Spirit of Yahweh will come upon you, and you also will speak messages that come directly from God. (You will be changed/The Spirit of Yahweh will change you), so that you will become like a different person.
и снидет на тя Дух Господень, и воспророчествуеши с ними, и обратишися в мужа иного:
7 After those things occur, do whatever you think is right to do, and God will (be with/help) you.
и будет егда приидут знамения сия на тя, твори вся, елика обрящет рука твоя, яко Бог с тобою:
8 Then go ahead of me, down to Gilgal [city], and wait for me there, for seven days. Then I will join you there, to burn sacrifices and offer other sacrifices to enable you to maintain fellowship with God. When I arrive there, I will tell you what [other] things you should do.”
и снидеши прежде мене в Галгалы, и се, аз сниду к тебе вознести всесожжение и пожрети жертвы мирны: седмь дний пождеши, дондеже прииду к тебе, и покажу ти, что сотвориши.
9 As Saul started to leave there, God changed Saul’s inner being. And all the things that Samuel had predicted happened on that day.
И бысть внегда отвратити ему плещы своя отити от Самуила, преложи ему Бог сердце на ино. И приидоша вся знамения сия в день он.
10 When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, they saw some prophets who were [speaking messages that came directly from God. As the prophets were] approaching Saul and his servant, God’s Spirit came upon Saul powerfully, and he also began to speak messages from God.
И взыде оттуду на холм, и се, лик пророческий противу ему: и взыде нань Дух Божий, и прорицаше среде их.
11 When people who had known Saul previously heard him speaking messages from God as the prophets were doing, they said to each other, “What has happened to this son of Kish? Is he now really one of the (prophets/men who speak messages from God)?”
И быша вси видевшии его вчера и третияго дне, и видеша, и се, той посреде пророк прорицаяй. И реша людие кийждо ко искреннему своему: что сие бывшее сыну Кисову? Еда и Саул во пророцех?
12 One of the men who lived there replied, “[Saul cannot be a prophet, because] all prophets receive their power to speak messages from God, not from their parents.” And that is why, [when people hear about a report of someone prophesying, they think about what happened to Saul and] say, “[We are surprised about that person becoming a prophet, like] we were surprised to hear that Saul had really become one of the prophets.”
И отвеща некто от них и рече: и кто отец ему? Не Кис ли? И сего ради бысть в притчу: еда и Саул во пророцех?
13 When Saul finished speaking the messages that God gave him, he went to the place where the people offered sacrifices.
И сконча пророчествуя, и прииде оттуду на холм.
14 Later, Saul’s uncle [saw him there, and] asked him, “Where did you go?” Saul replied, “We went to look for the donkeys. When we could not find them, we came here to ask Samuel [if he could tell us where they were].”
И рече ужик его к нему и ко отрочищу его: камо ходисте? И реша: ослят искати, и видехом, яко несть их, и внидохом к Самуилу.
15 Saul’s uncle replied, “What did Samuel tell you?”
И рече ужик к Саулу: возвести ми ныне, что ти рече Самуил?
16 Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But he did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about him becoming the king [of Israel].
И рече Саул ужику своему: вестию возвести ми, яко обретошася ослята. Словесе же о царстве не возвести ему, еже рече Самуил.
17 [Later] Samuel summoned the people of Israel to gather at Mizpah to [hear a message from] Yahweh.
И заповеда Самуил всем людем приити ко Господу в Массифаф.
18 After they arrived, he said to them, “This is what Yahweh, the God we Israeli people [worship], says: I brought you Israeli people out of Egypt. I rescued your [ancestors] from the power of the rulers of Egypt and from all the other kings who oppressed them.
И рече Самуил к сыном Израилевым: сия рече Господь Бог Израилев, глаголя: Аз изведох отцы вашя сыны Израилевы из Египта, и изях вы от руки фараона царя Египетскаго и от всех царств оскорбляющих вы:
19 I am the one who saves you from all your troubles and difficulties. But today you have rejected me, your God, and you have said, ‘We don’t care! Give us a king!’ So [I will do what you want]. Now have [representatives of] your tribes and [of] your clans stand here in the presence of Yahweh.’”
и вы днесь уничижисте Бога вашего, Иже Сам есть спасаяй вы от всех зол ваших и скорбей ваших, и ресте: ни, но царя да поставиши над нами: и ныне станите пред Господем по хоругвам вашым и по племенем вашым и по тысящам вашым.
20 When those representatives came near to Samuel, [God indicated that] he had chosen someone from the tribe descended from Benjamin.
И приведе Самуил вся колена Израилева, и паде жребий на хоругвь Вениаминю.
21 Then Samuel told representatives of the tribe of Benjamin to come forward, and God indicated that [from that tribe] he had chosen someone from the family of Matri, and then God indicated that [from the family of Matri] he had chosen Saul, the son of Kish. But when they looked for Saul, they could not find him.
И приведе хоругвь Вениаминю по племенам, и паде жребий на племя Маттариино: и приведоша племя Маттариино по мужем, и паде жребий на Саула сына Кисова: и искаху его, и не обреташеся.
22 So they asked Yahweh, “Where is Saul?” Yahweh replied, “He is hiding among the army equipment.”
И вопроси Самуил еще Господа, глаголя: аще приидет семо муж еще? И рече Господь: се, той сокрыся в сосудех.
23 So they quickly went there [and found him, ] and brought him [in front of all the people]. They could see that [truly] he was a head taller than anyone else.
И тече Самуил, и взя его оттуду, и постави его посреде людий: и бысть вышше всех людий, от рамен и вышше.
24 Then Samuel said to all the people there, “This is the man whom Yahweh has chosen to be your king. Among all us Israeli people, there is no one like him!” Then all the people shouted, “We hope that this king will live a long time!”
И рече Самуил ко всем людем: видесте ли, егоже избра себе Господь, яко несть подобен ему во всех вас? И познаша вси людие и реша: да живет царь.
25 Then Samuel told the people what things the king would force them to do, and all the things the king was required to do. He wrote all those things on a scroll, and then he put it in a sacred place in the temple. Then Samuel sent all the people home.
И рече Самуил к людем оправдания царствия, и написа в книзе, и положи пред Господем.
26 When Saul returned to his home in Gibeah [town], a group of men decided to continually accompany Saul. They did that because God (motivated them/put it in their minds) to do that.
И отпусти Самуил вся люди, и идоша кийждо во своя си, и Саул иде в дом свой в Гаваю: и идоша с ним сынове сил, ихже коснеся Господь сердец их, с Саулом.
27 But some worthless men said, “(How can this man save us [from our enemies]?/This man will not be able to save us [from our enemies].)” [RHQ] They despised him, and refused to give him any gifts [to show that they would be loyal to him]. But Saul did not say anything [to rebuke them].
Сынове же погибелнии реша: кто спасет нас, сей ли? И безчествоваша его, и не принесоша ему даров.
