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.
И прегрешиша сынове Израилевы прегрешением великим, и взяша от клятвы: взя бо Ахар сын Хармии, сына Замврии, сына Зары, от племене Иудина, от клятвы. И разгневася Господь яростию на сыны Израилевы.
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.
И посла Иисус мужы от Иерихона в Гай, иже есть противу Вифавн на восток Вефиля, и рече им, глаголя: шедше соглядайте землю. И идоша мужие и соглядаша 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 возвратишася ко Иисусу и рекоша ему: да не идут вси людие, но яко две тысящы или три тысящы мужей да идут и да воюют Гай: да не ведеши тамо всех людий, мало бо есть их (тамо).
4 So about 3,000 Israeli men went [to attack Ai]. But the men of Ai defeated them badly.
И идоша от людий тамо, аки три тысящы мужей, и побегоша от лица мужей 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.
и убиша от них мужие Гайстии яко тридесять и шесть мужей, и отгнаша их от врат, дондеже сокрушиша их на стремнине: и ужасеся сердце людий, и бысть яко 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].
И растерза Иисус ризы своя, и паде на земли на лице свое пред Господем даже до вечера, сам и старцы Израилевы: и посыпаша персть на главы своя.
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 рече Иисус: молюся, Господи Господи, вскую преведе раб Твой люди сия чрез Иордан предати их Аморреом на погубление? От, да быхом пребыли и вселилися у Иордана:
8 Lord, we Israelis have been defeated by our enemies, so I do not know what to say now [RHQ].
Господи, что реку? Понеже отврати Израиль выю свою пред враги своими:
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)?”
и услышав Хананей и вси живущии на земли обыдут нас и потребят нас от земли: и что сотвориши имени Твоему великому?
10 But Yahweh said to Joshua, “Stand up! Stop lying there with your face on the ground [RHQ]!
И рече Господь ко Иисусу: востани, вскую ты пал еси 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].
Согрешиша людие и преступиша завет Мой, егоже завещах к ним, и украдше от клятвы, скрыша в сосудех своих:
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!”
сего ради не могут сынове Израилевы стати пред лицем врагов своих, но хребет обратят пред враги своими, яко клятвою сташася: не приложу ксему быти с вами, аще не измете клятвы от себе самих:
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.
востав очисти люди и рцы: очиститеся на утро: яко сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: клятва есть в вас, не возможете стати пред враги вашими, дондеже измете от себе самих клятву:
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].
и соберитеся вси заутра по племеном (вашым), и будет племя, еже покажет Господь, да приведете по сонмом: и сонм, егоже покажет Господь, да приведете по домом: и дом, егоже покажет Господь, да приведете по мужем:
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 иже обличится, да сожжется огнем, сам и вся елика суть его, яко преступи завет Господень и сотвори беззаконие во Израили.
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].
И воста Иисус заутра, и приведе людий по племеном: и обличися племя 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].
И приведеся по сонмом, и обличися сонм Зараин: и приведеся сонм Зараин по мужем, и обличися дом Замвриин.
18 Then Joshua told the men from that family to present themselves. And Yahweh indicated that Achan was guilty.
И приведеся дом его по мужем, и обличися Ахар сын Хармиин сына Замвриина, сына Зараня, от племене 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).”
И рече Иисус Ахару: сыне мой, даждь славу днесь Господу Богу Израилеву, и даждь Ему исповедание, и исповеждь ми, что сотворил еси, и не утай от мене.
20 Achan replied, “It is true. I have sinned against Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship].
И отвеща Ахар Иисусу и рече: поистинне аз согреших пред Господем Богом Израилевым: сице и сице сотворих:
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.”
видех в плене ризу красну и добру и двести дидрахм сребра, и сосуд един злат, пятьдесят дидрахм вес его: и помыслив на ня взях: и се, сия сокровенна суть в земли в кущи моей, и сребро сокровенно под ними.
22 So Joshua sent some men [to find those things]. They ran to Achan’s tent and found all the things hidden there.
И посла Иисус послы, и идоша в кущу в полк: и сия бяху сокровенна в кущи его, и сребро под ними,
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.
и изнесоша я из кущи, и принесоша ко Иисусу и к старцем Израилевым, и положиша я пред Господем.
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.
И взя Иисус Ахара сына Зараня, и сребро и ризу и сосуд златый, и возведе его в дебрь Ахор, и сыны его и дщери его, и телцы его и ослята его и вся овцы его, и кущу его и вся имения его, и весь Израиль по нем: и возведе я (со всем) во емек 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 рече Иисус Ахару: почто потребил еси нас? Да потребит тя Господь, якоже и днесь. И побиша его камением весь Израиль, и сожгоша вся огнем, и наметаша их камением,
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 наметаша на нем громаду камения велику. И преста Господь от ярости гнева Своего. Сего ради прозвася имя месту тому емек Ахор даже до дне сего.
