< 2 Samuel 1 >
1 After Saul died, David [and the men who were with him] returned to Ziklag [town] after defeating the descendants of Amalek. They stayed in Ziklag for two days.
По смерти Саула, когда Давид возвратился от поражения Амаликитян и пробыл в Секелаге два дня,
2 On the third day, unexpectedly a man arrived there who had come from where Saul’s army was camped. He had torn his clothes and put dust on his head [to show that he was grieving]. He came to David, and prostrated himself on the ground [in front of David to show respect for him].
вот, на третий день приходит человек из стана Саулова; одежда на нем разодрана и прах на голове его. Придя к Давиду, он пал на землю и поклонился ему.
3 David asked him, “Where have you come from?” The man replied, “I escaped from where the Israeli army had been camped.”
И сказал ему Давид: откуда ты пришел? И сказал тот: я убежал из стана Израильского.
4 David asked him, “What happened? Tell me [about the battle]!” The man replied, “The Israeli soldiers ran away from the battle. Many of them were killed. And Saul and his son Jonathan (are dead/were also killed).”
И сказал ему Давид: что произошло? расскажи мне. И тот сказал: народ побежал со сражения, и множество из народа пало и умерло, и умерли и Саул и сын его Ионафан.
5 David said to the young man, “How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan are dead?”
И сказал Давид отроку, рассказывавшему ему: как ты знаешь, что Саул и сын его Ионафан умерли?
6 The young man replied, “It happened that I was on Gilboa Mountain [where the battle occurred], and I saw Saul, leaning on his spear. The [enemy] chariots and their drivers had come very close to Saul.
И сказал отрок, рассказывавший ему: я случайно пришел на гору Гелвуйскую, и вот, Саул пал на свое копье, колесницы же и всадники настигали его.
7 Saul turned around and saw me, and he called out to me. I answered him and said, ‘What do you want me to do?’
Тогда он оглянулся назад и, увидев меня, позвал меня.
8 He replied, ‘Who are you?’ I replied, ‘I am a descendant of Amalek.’
И я сказал: вот я. Он сказал мне: кто ты? И я сказал ему: я - Амаликитянин.
9 Then he said to me, ‘Come over here and kill me. I am still alive, but I am enduring a lot of pain.’
Тогда он сказал мне: подойди ко мне и убей меня, ибо тоска смертная объяла меня, душа моя все еще во мне.
10 So I went to him and killed him, because I knew that he was wounded very badly and would (not continue to live/soon die). I took the crown that was on his head and the band/bracelet that was on his arm, and I have brought them to you.”
И я подошел к нему и убил его, ибо знал, что он не будет жив после своего падения; и взял я царский венец, бывший на голове его, и запястье, бывшее на руке его, и принес их к господину моему сюда.
11 Then David and all the men who were with him tore their clothes [to show that they were very sad].
Тогда схватил Давид одежды свои и разодрал их, также и все люди, бывшие с ним, разодрали одежды свои,
12 They mourned for Saul and his son Jonathan, and they cried and (fasted/abstained from eating food) until it was evening. They also mourned for all the army of Yahweh, and for all the Israeli people, because many of their soldiers had been killed in the battle [MTY].
и рыдали и плакали, и постились до вечера о Сауле и о сыне его Ионафане, и о народе Господнем и о доме Израилевом, что пали они от меча.
13 Then David asked the young man who had told him [about the battle], “Where are you from?” He replied, “My father is a descendant of Amalek, but we live in Israel.”
И сказал Давид отроку, рассказывавшему ему: откуда ты? И сказал он: я - сын пришельца Амаликитянина.
14 David asked him, “(Why were you not afraid [that you would be punished if you] killed Saul, whom Yahweh had appointed [MTY] [to be the king]?/You should have been afraid [that you would be punished if you] killed Saul, whom Yahweh had appointed [MTY] [to be the king].) [RHQ]
Тогда Давид сказал ему: как не побоялся ты поднять руку, чтобы убить помазанника Господня?
15 You yourself said, ‘I killed the man whom Yahweh appointed to be the king.’ So you have caused yourself to be guilty [MTY] of causing your own death!” Then David summoned one of his soldiers and said to him, “Kill him!” So the soldier killed him by striking him [with a sword].
И призвал Давид одного из отроков и сказал ему: подойди, убей его.
И тот убил его, и он умер. И сказал к нему Давид: кровь твоя на голове твоей, ибо твои уста свидетельствовали на тебя, когда ты говорил: я убил помазанника Господня.
17 Then David composed/wrote this sad song about Saul and Jonathan,
И оплакал Давид Саула и сына его Ионафана сею плачевною песнью,
18 and he commanded that it be taught to the people of Judah. [The song is called] ‘The Bow [and Arrow]’ and it has been written in the Book of Jashar:
и повелел научить сынов Иудиных луку, как написано в книге Праведного, и сказал:
19 “You Israeli people, your glorious [MTY] leaders have been killed on the mountains! [It is very sad that] those mighty men have died!
краса твоя, о Израиль, поражена на высотах твоих! как пали сильные!
20 “Do not tell it [to our enemies in the Philistia area]; do not tell to the people who live in Gath [city] what happened; do not proclaim it in the streets of Ashkelon [city], because if you tell them, [even] the women in that area will be happy; do not allow those (pagan women/women who do not know God) to rejoice.
Не рассказывайте в Гефе, не возвещайте на улицах Аскалона, чтобы не радовались дочери Филистимлян, чтобы не торжествовали дочери необрезанных.
21 I hope/desire that there will be no rain or dew on the mountains of [the] Gilboa [area] [APO], and that no grain will grow in the fields there, because there the shield of Saul, the mighty [king], fell on the ground. No one rubbed [olive] oil on Saul’s shield;
Горы Гелвуйские! да не сойдет ни роса, ни дождь на вас, и да не будет на вас полей с плодами, ибо там повержен щит сильных, щит Саула, как бы не был он помазан елеем.
22 instead, it was stained with the blood of those whom he had killed, and the fat of mighty enemy soldiers was smeared on it. Jonathan [PRS] did not retreat carrying his bow [and arrows], and Saul always [defeated his enemies when he fought them] with his sword. [PRS, LIT]
Без крови раненых, без тука сильных лук Ионафана не возвращался назад, и меч Саула не возвращался даром.
23 “Saul and Jonathan were loved and they pleased many people. They were together [LIT] while they lived and when they died. [In battles] they were swifter than eagles and they were stronger than lions.
Саул и Ионафан, любезные и согласные в жизни своей, не разлучились и в смерти своей; быстрее орлов, сильнее львов они были.
24 “You Israeli women, cry about Saul; He provided beautiful scarlet/red clothes for you and he gave you gold ornaments/jewelry to fasten on those clothes.
Дочери Израильские! плачьте о Сауле, который одевал вас в багряницу с украшениями и доставлял на одежды ваши золотые уборы.
25 “[It is very sad that] this mighty soldier has died! Jonathan has been killed on the mountains/hills.
Как пали сильные на брани! Сражен Ионафан на высотах твоих.
26 Jonathan, my dear friend, I grieve for you; you were very dear to me. You loved me in a wonderful manner; it was better than the way that a woman loves [her husband and her children].
Скорблю о тебе, брат мой Ионафан; ты был очень дорог для меня; любовь твоя была для меня превыше любви женской.
27 “It is very sad that those mighty men have died, and their weapons are now abandoned!
Как пали сильные, погибло оружие бранное!
