Judges 2
1 Yahweh [appeared in the form of] an angel [and] went up from Gilgal to [a place that was later called] Bokim. He said [to the Israeli people], “I brought your [ancestors] up here from Egypt. I led them into this land that I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors. I said to them, ‘The agreement that I made with you, as for me, I will never (break it/say that it is ended).
И пришел Ангел Господень из Галгала в Бохим и в Вефиль и к дому Израилеву и сказал им: так говорит Господь: Я вывел вас из Египта и ввел вас в землю, о которой клялся отцам вашим дать вам, и сказал Я: “не нарушу завета Моего с вами вовек;
2 But as for you, you must never make a peace agreement with the people who live in this land. You must tear down the altars [where they make sacrifices to idols].’ But you have not obeyed me.
и вы не вступайте в союз с жителями земли сей; богам их не поклоняйтесь, изваяния их разбейте, жертвенники их разрушьте”. Но вы не послушали гласа Моего. Что вы это сделали?
3 So now, I am telling you that I will not expel [your enemies] as you advance. They will be like thorns in your sides. And [they] will try to trap you [by making you worship] their idols.”
И потому говорю Я: не стану уже переселять людей сих, которых Я хотел изгнать, не изгоню их от вас, и будут они вам петлею, и боги их будут для вас сетью.
4 After he told that to all the Israelis, the people cried loudly.
Когда Ангел Господень сказал слова сии всем сынам Израилевым, то народ поднял громкий вопль и заплакал.
5 They called that place Bokim, [which means ‘weeping’]. There they offered sacrifices to Yahweh.
От сего и называют то место Бохим. Там принесли они жертву Господу.
6 After Joshua sent the Israeli people away, each group went to possess the land that had been allotted to them.
Когда Иисус распустил народ, и пошли сыны Израилевы, каждый в свой дом и каждый в свой удел, чтобы получить в наследие землю,
7 They served Yahweh as long as Joshua was alive, and as long as the elders, those who had seen all the great things that Yahweh had done for Israel, were alive.
тогда народ служил Господу во все дни Иисуса и во все дни старейшин, которых жизнь продлилась после Иисуса и которые видели все великие дела Господни, какие Он сделал Израилю.
8 Then Yahweh’s servant Joshua died. He was 110 years old when he died.
Но когда умер Иисус, сын Навин, раб Господень, будучи ста десяти лет,
9 They buried his body in the area he had received [from Moses], at Timnath-Serah, in the area where the descendants of Ephraim lived, north of Gaash Mountain.
и похоронили его в пределе удела его в Фамнаф-Сараи, на гор Ефремовой, на север от горы Гааша;
10 After all the people died who lived at the same time as Joshua [EUP], a group of people grew up who did not know Yahweh, and did not know what great things he had done for the Israeli people.
и когда весь народ оный отошел к отцам своим, и восстал после них другой род, который не знал Господа и дел Его, какие Он делал Израилю,
11 They did things that Yahweh said were very evil. They worshiped [idols that represented the god] Baal and the goddess Astarte. They worshiped [DOU] the various gods that the people-groups around them worshiped. They stopped worshiping Yahweh, the God their ancestors worshiped, the one who had brought their ancestors out of Egypt. That caused Yahweh to be very angry.
тогда сыны Израилевы стали делать злое пред очами Господа и стали служить Ваалам;
оставили Господа Бога отцов своих, Который вывел их из земли Египетской, и обратились к другим богам, богам народов, окружавших их, и стали поклоняться им, и раздражили Господа;
оставили Господа и стали служить Ваалу и Астартам.
14 So he allowed people from other groups to raid them and steal their crops and animals. They were no longer able to resist their enemies, and Yahweh allowed all their enemies around them to defeat them.
И воспылал гнев Господень на Израиля, и предал их в руки грабителей, и грабили их; и предал их в руки врагов, окружавших их, и не могли уже устоять пред врагами своими.
15 Whenever the Israelis went to fight [their enemies], Yahweh [MTY] was opposing them, and allowed their enemies to defeat them, just as he had promised he would do. So the Israelis were greatly distressed.
Куда они ни пойдут, рука Господня везде была им во зло, как говорил им Господь и как клялся им Господь. И им было весьма тесно.
16 Then Yahweh gave leaders to them. These leaders rescued the Israelis from the people who were raiding them.
И воздвигал им Господь судей, которые спасали их от рук грабителей их;
17 But the Israelis still would not pay attention to their leaders. Instead, they went to the idols, [acting like] prostitutes [who gave themselves to men who were not their husbands] [MET], and they worshiped those idols. They were not like their ancestors. Their ancestors obeyed what Yahweh commanded, but their descendants quickly stopped behaving as their ancestors had behaved.
но и судей они не слушали, а ходили блудно вслед других богов и поклонялись им и раздражали Господа, скоро уклонялись от пути, коим ходили отцы их, повинуясь заповедям Господним. Они так не делали.
18 Whenever Yahweh gave a leader to them, he helped that leader and enabled him to rescue the people from their enemies. He helped them like that as long as that leader was alive. Yahweh pitied them as they groaned because they were being oppressed and caused to suffer.
Когда Господь воздвигал им судей, то Сам Господь был с судьею и спасал их от врагов их во все дни судьи: ибо жалел их Господь, слыша стон их от угнетавших и притеснявших их.
19 But after that leader died, the people went back to behaving in ways even more evil than their ancestors had behaved. They worshiped other gods and bowed down to them and did all [LIT] the things that they thought those gods wanted them to do.
Но как скоро умирал судья, они опять делали хуже отцов своих, уклоняясь к другим богам, служа им и поклоняясь им. Не отставали от дел своих и не отступали от строптивого пути своего.
20 So Yahweh was very angry with the Israeli people. He said, “These people have disobeyed the agreement I made with their ancestors. They have not done what I told them to do.
И воспылал гнев Господень на Израиля, и сказал Он: за то, что народ сей преступает завет Мой, который Я поставил с отцами их, и не слушает гласа Моего,
21 So I will no longer expel the people-groups that Joshua left in this land when he died.
и Я не стану уже изгонять от них ни одного из тех народов, которых оставил Иисус, сын Навин, на земле, когда умирал,
22 I will use them to test the Israeli people to see whether they will do what I want them to do, as their ancestors did.”
чтобы искушать ими Израиля: станут ли они держаться пути Господня и ходить по нему, как держались отцы их, или нет?
23 Yahweh had allowed those people-groups to stay in that land. He did not expel them by allowing Joshua [and his men] to defeat them.
И оставил Господь народы сии и не изгнал их вскоре и не предал их в руки Иисуса.
