Joshua 7
1 Yahweh had commanded that all the things [that they had captured in Jericho] should be [destroyed to show that they belong] to him. But there was a man from the tribe of Judah named Achan. He was the son of Carmi and grandson of Zabdi and great-grandson of Zerah. He disobeyed [what] Yahweh [had commanded] and took for himself some of those things. So Yahweh was very angry with the Israelis.
Но сыны Израилевы сделали великое преступление и взяли из заклятого. Ахан, сын Хармия, сына Завдия, сына Зары, из колена Иудина, взял из заклятого, и гнев Господень возгорелся на сынов Израиля.
2 Joshua told some of his men to go from Jericho to Ai [town], which was east of Bethel [city] and near Beth-Aven [town]. He said to them, “Go to Ai and (spy out the area/see what the area is like).” So the men went.
Иисус из Иерихона послал людей в Гай, что близ Беф-Авена, с восточной стороны Вефиля, и сказал им: пойдите, осмотрите землю. Они пошли и осмотрели Гай.
3 When they returned to Joshua they said, “There are only a few people in Ai. So we do not need to send all of our soldiers to defeat them. Send 2.000 or 3,000 men to attack them. That will be enough.”
И возвратившись к Иисусу, сказали ему: не весь народ пусть идет, а пусть пойдет около двух тысяч или около трех тысяч человек, и поразят Гай; всего народа не утруждай туда, ибо их мало там.
4 So about 3,000 Israeli men went [to attack Ai]. But the men of Ai defeated them badly.
Итак пошло туда из народа около трех тысяч человек, но они обратились в бегство от жителей Гайских;
5 They killed about 36 Israelis and chased the rest of Israeli men from the city gate to the bottom of the hill. When the other Israelis saw that this had happened, they became very discouraged.
жители Гайские убили из них до тридцати шести человек, и преследовали их от ворот до Севарим, и разбили их на спуске с горы; отчего сердце народа растаяло и стало, как вода.
6 Joshua and the other Israeli leaders tore their clothes [because they were very sad about being defeated]. They prostrated themselves on the ground in front of [the Sacred Tent in which was] the sacred chest. They stayed there until that evening. They also threw dirt on their heads [to show that they were very sad about what had happened].
Иисус разодрал одежды свои и пал лицом своим на землю пред ковчегом Господним и лежал до самого вечера, он и старейшины Израилевы, и посыпали прахом головы свои.
7 Then Joshua prayed and said, “Lord God, you brought us Israelis [safely] across the Jordan River. So why are you now allowing the Amor people-group to defeat us [RHQ]? [This would not have happened] if we had stayed on the other side of the Jordan River!
И сказал Иисус: о, Господи Владыка! для чего Ты перевел народ сей чрез Иордан, дабы предать нас в руки Аморреев и погубить нас? о, если бы мы остались и жили за Иорданом!
8 Lord, we Israelis have been defeated by our enemies, so I do not know what to say now [RHQ].
О, Господи! что сказать мне после того, как Израиль обратил тыл врагам своим?
9 The Canaan people-group and all the other people who are living in this land will hear about this. Then they will surround us and kill all of us! Then what will you do (to defend your reputation [MTY]/to show that you are a powerful God)?”
Хананеи и все жители земли услышат и окружат нас и истребят имя наше с земли. И что сделаешь тогда имени Твоему великому?
10 But Yahweh said to Joshua, “Stand up! Stop lying there with your face on the ground [RHQ]!
Господь сказал Иисусу: встань, для чего ты пал на лице твое?
11 You Israelis have sinned! You have disobeyed the commands that I told you to obey. [One of] your men has taken some of the things that I told you to destroy. He has stolen them and taken them for himself and lied [about it].
Израиль согрешил, и преступили они завет Мой, который Я завещал им; и взяли из заклятого, и украли, и утаили, и положили между своими вещами;
12 That is why you Israelis have been unable to be strong when you went to attack your enemies. That is why you have run away from them. And now you yourselves may be destroyed. If you do not do as I commanded you and destroy everything [that you captured in Jericho] I will not help you any more!”
за то сыны Израилевы не могли устоять пред врагами своими и обратили тыл врагам своим, ибо они подпали заклятию; не буду более с вами, если не истребите из среды вашей заклятого.
13 “Now go and tell this to the people: ‘Tomorrow you must [perform the rituals that will] cause yourselves to become acceptable to Yahweh again. Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says that one of you has kept things that he told you to destroy. You will never defeat your enemies until you get rid of those things.
Встань, освяти народ и скажи: освятитесь к утру, ибо так говорит Господь Бог Израилев: “заклятое среди тебя, Израиль; посему ты не можешь устоять пред врагами твоими, доколе не отдалишь от себя заклятого”;
14 ‘Tomorrow morning you must present yourselves before Yahweh, tribe by tribe. Then Yahweh will indicate to which tribe [the man who took those things belongs]. Then Yahweh will indicate to which clan from that tribe [the guilty man belongs]. Then Yahweh will indicate to which family he belongs. And then he will indicate which person [in that family took those things].
завтра подходите все по коленам вашим; колено же, которое укажет Господь, пусть подходит по племенам; племя, которое укажет Господь, пусть подходит по семействам; семейство, которое укажет Господь, пусть подходит по одному человеку;
15 Then the one who has taken some of the things that should have been destroyed will be destroyed in a fire. And everything he owns will be destroyed with him, because he has disobeyed the command that Yahweh gave us and has done something that is disgraceful to us Israeli people.’”
и обличенного в похищении заклятого пусть сожгут огнем, его и все, что у него, за то, что он преступил завет Господень и сделал беззаконие среди Израиля.
16 Early the next morning, Joshua told all the Israeli people to stand before the Sacred Tent, tribe by tribe. [When they did that], Yahweh indicated that a man from the tribe of Judah [was the one who had taken the things].
Иисус, встав рано поутру, велел подходить Израилю по коленам его, и указано колено Иудино;
17 Then the clans of Judah presented themselves, and Yahweh indicated that someone from the clan of Zerah was the guilty one. Then the families of Zerah’s clan presented themselves, and Yahweh indicated that someone from the family of Zabdi [was the guilty one].
потом велел подходить племенам Иуды, и указано племя Зары; велел подходить племени Зарину по семействам, и указано семейство Завдиево;
18 Then Joshua told the men from that family to present themselves. And Yahweh indicated that Achan was guilty.
велел подходить семейству его по одному человеку, и указан Ахан, сын Хармия, сына Завдия, сына Зары, из колена Иудина.
19 Then Joshua said to Achan, “Son, tell the truth [IDM]. Confess to Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship, what you have done]. And tell me what you did, and do not try to (conceal anything/prevent me from knowing what you did).”
Тогда Иисус сказал Ахану: сын мой! воздай славу Господу, Богу Израилеву и сделай пред Ним исповедание и объяви мне, что ты сделал; не скрой от меня.
20 Achan replied, “It is true. I have sinned against Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship].
В ответ Иисусу Ахан сказал: точно, я согрешил пред Господом Богом Израилевым и сделал то и то:
21 Among the things [in Jericho] that I saw was a beautiful coat from Babylonia. I also saw 200 pieces of silver and some gold that weighed as much as 50 pieces of silver. I wanted those things very much for myself, so I took them. I buried them all in the ground under my tent. You will find them there. The silver is buried under the other things.”
между добычею увидел я одну прекрасную Сеннаарскую одежду и двести сиклей серебра и слиток золота весом в пятьдесят сиклей; это мне полюбилось, и я взял это; и вот, оно спрятано в земле среди шатра моего, и серебро под ним спрятано.
22 So Joshua sent some men [to find those things]. They ran to Achan’s tent and found all the things hidden there.
Иисус послал людей, и они побежали в шатер в стан; и вот, все это спрятано было в шатре его, и серебро под ним.
23 The men brought them all out of the tent and took them to Joshua and the rest of the Israeli people. Then they spread/laid them out on the ground, where Yahweh could see them.
Они взяли это из шатра и принесли к Иисусу и ко всем сынам Израилевым и положили пред Господом.
24 Then Joshua and the rest of the people led Achan down to the valley. They also took down there the silver, the coat, the gold, Achan’s [wife and] sons and daughters, and his cattle and donkeys and sheep, and his tent, and everything else that he owned.
Иисус и все Израильтяне с ним взяли Ахана, сына Зарина, и серебро, и одежду, и слиток золота, и сыновей его и дочерей его, и волов его и ослов его, и овец его и шатер его, и все, что у него было, и вывели их со всем на долину Ахор.
25 Joshua said, “(I do not know why you caused so much trouble for us/You have caused a lot of trouble for us) [RHQ], but now Yahweh will cause trouble for you.” Then all the people threw stones at Achan and his family until they all died. Then the people burned their corpses.
И сказал Иисус: за то, что ты навел на нас беду, Господь на тебя наводит беду в день сей. И побили его все Израильтяне камнями, и сожгли их огнем, и наметали на них камни.
26 They piled rocks over [the ashes of] their [corpses], and those rocks are still there. That is why that valley is called Trouble Valley. After that, Yahweh was no longer angry [with the Israeli people].
И набросали на него большую груду камней, которая уцелела и до сего дня. После сего утихла ярость гнева Господня. Посему то место называется долиною Ахор даже до сего дня.
