2 Samuel 23
1 David, the son of Jesse, was a man whom [God caused to] become great. He was appointed to become king by the God whom Jacob [worshiped]. He wrote beautiful songs for the Israeli people. This is the last song that he wrote:
Вот последние слова Давида, изречение Давида, сына Иессеева, изречение мужа, поставленного высоко, помазанника Бога Иаковлева и сладкого певца Израилева:
2 “The Spirit of Yahweh tells me what to say; the message that I speak [MTY] comes from him.
Дух Господень говорит во мне, и слово Его на языке у меня.
3 God, the one whom we Israeli [people worship], has spoken; the one who protects us Israeli people said to me, ‘Kings who rule people justly have an awesome respect for me, God.
Сказал Бог Израилев, говорил о мне скала Израилева: владычествующий над людьми будет праведен, владычествуя в страхе Божием.
4 They are like the sun that shines at dawn and causes the grass to [sprout/sparkle] after the rain ends.’
И как на рассвете утра, при восходе солнца на безоблачном небе, от сияния после дождя вырастает трава из земли,
5 And truly, that is how God will surely bless my family [RHQ] because he made an agreement with me that will endure forever, an agreement in which he promises that no part of it will ever be changed. He will surely cause me to prosper [RHQ], and he will always help me, and that is all that I desire.
не так ли дом мой у Бога? Ибо завет вечный положил Он со мною, твердый и непреложный. Не так ли исходит от Него все спасение мое и все хотение мое?
6 But [he will get rid of] godless/evil people like [SIM] people throw away thorns that [injure people if they try to] pick them up with their hands.
А нечестивые будут, как выброшенное терние, которого не берут рукою;
7 Someone [who wants to get rid of thornbushes] does not grab them; he uses an iron [shovel] or a spear [to dig them out] and then he burns them completely.
но кто касается его, вооружается железом или деревом копья, и огнем сожигают его на месте.
8 These are the names of David’s three greatest warriors. The first was Esh-Baal, [whose other name was Jashobeam], from the Hachmon clan (OR, the son of Hachmon). He was the leader of the three men. One time he fought against 800 enemies and killed them all with his spear.
Вот имена храбрых у Давида: Исбосеф Ахаманитянин, главный из трех; он поднял копье свое на восемьсот человек и поразил их в один раз.
9 The second/next one of the three greatest warriors was Eleazar, who was the son of Dodo from the clan of Ahoh. One day he was with David when they defied/challenged the soldiers of Philistia who had gathered for the battle. The [other] Israeli soldiers retreated,
По нем Елеазар, сын Додо, сына Ахохи, из трех храбрых, бывших с Давидом, когда они порицанием вызывали Филистимлян, собравшихся на войну;
10 but Eleazar stood there and fought the soldiers of Philistia until his arm became very tired, with the result that [his hand cramped and] he could not stop gripping his sword. Yahweh won a great victory on that day. And afterwards the [other] Israeli soldiers returned [to where Eleazar was], and stripped off the [armor from the men whom he had] killed.
израильтяне вышли против них, и он стал и поражал Филистимлян до того, что рука его утомилась и прилипла к мечу. И даровал Господь в тот день великую победу, и народ последовал за ним для того только, чтоб обирать убитых.
11 The third one of the greatest warriors was Shammah, the son of Agee from [the clan/town of] Harar. One time the Philistia soldiers gathered at Lehi [town], where there was a field full of lentils/peas [that they wanted to steal]. The other Israeli soldiers ran away from the Philistia troops,
За ним Шамма, сын Аге, Гараритянин. Когда Филистимляне собрались в Фирию, где было поле, засеянное чечевицею, и народ побежал от Филистимлян,
12 but Shammah stood there in the field and did not let the Philistia soldiers [steal the crops], and killed them. Yahweh won a great victory on that day.
то он стал среди поля и сберег его и поразил Филистимлян. И даровал тогда Господь великую победу.
13 Altogether there were 30 special warriors among David’s soldiers. Once, when it was almost time to harvest [the crops], three of those 30 men went down to Adullam Cave, where David was [staying]. A group of men from the Philistia army had set up their tents in Rephaim Valley [near Jerusalem].
Трое сих главных из тридцати вождей пошли и вошли во время жатвы к Давиду в пещеру Одоллам, когда толпы Филистимлян стояли в долине Рефаимов.
14 David [and his soldiers] were in the cave [because it was safe there], and [another] group of Philistia soldiers was occupying Bethlehem.
Давид был тогда в укрепленном месте, а отряд Филистимлян - в Вифлееме.
15 [One day] David very much wanted [some water] to drink, and said “I wish that someone would bring me some water from the well near the gate at Bethlehem!”
И захотел Давид пить, и сказал: кто напоит меня водою из колодезя Вифлеемского, что у ворот?
16 So his three greatest warriors forced their way through the camp of Philistia soldiers and drew some water from the well, and brought it to David. But he would not drink it. Instead, he poured it out [on the ground] as an offering to Yahweh.
Тогда трое этих храбрых пробились сквозь стан Филистимский и почерпнули воды из колодезя Вифлеемского, что у ворот, и взяли и принесли Давиду. Но он не захотел пить ее и вылил ее во славу Господа,
17 He said, “Yahweh, it would certainly not be right for me to drink this water! That would be like [RHQ] drinking the blood of these men who were willing/ready to die for me!” So he refused to drink it. That was one of the things that those three great warriors did.
и сказал: сохрани меня Господь, чтоб я сделал это! не кровь ли это людей, ходивших с опасностью собственной жизни? И не захотел пить ее. Вот что сделали эти трое храбрых!
18 Abishai, Joab’s [younger] brother, was the leader of the 30 [greatest warriors]. [One day] he fought against 300 men and killed them all with his spear. As a result, he also became famous.
И Авесса, брат Иоава, сын Саруин, был главным из трех; он убил копьем своим триста человек и был в славе у тех троих.
19 He was the most famous of the thirty greatest warriors, and he became their leader/commander, but he was not one of the three greatest warriors.
Из трех он был знатнейшим и был начальником, но с теми тремя не равнялся.
20 Jehoiada’s son Benaiah, from Kabzeel [town], also did great deeds. He killed two of the best warriors from the Moab people-group. Also, he went down into a pit on a day when snow was falling, and killed a lion there.
Ванея, сын Иодая, мужа храброго, великий по делам, из Кавцеила; он поразил двух сыновей Ариила Моавитского; он же сошел и убил льва во рве в снежное время;
21 He also killed a huge soldier from Egypt who carried a spear. Benaiah [had only] his club, but he attacked the giant with it. Then he snatched the spear from the man’s hand and killed him with his own spear.
он же убил одного Египтянина человека видного; в руке Египтянина было копье, а он пошел к нему с палкою и отнял копье из руки Египтянина, и убил его собственным его копьем:
22 Those are [some of] the things that Benaiah did. As a result, he became famous, like the three greatest warriors were.
вот что сделал Ванея, сын Иодаев, и он был в славе у трех храбрых;
23 He was more honored than the other members of the group of thirty great warriors, but not as famous as the three greatest warriors. David appointed him to be the commander of his bodyguards.
он был знатнее тридцати, но с теми тремя не равнялся. И поставил его Давид ближайшим исполнителем своих приказаний.
