< Judges 20 >

1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was gathered together as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to the LORD in Mizpeh.
И изыдоша вси сынове Израилевы, и собрашася весь сонм яко един муж, от Дана и до Вирсавии, и земля Галаадска к Господеви в Массифу,
2 And the chief of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword.
и сташа пред лицем Господним вся племена Израилева в сонме людий Божиих, четыреста тысящ мужей пеших воздвизающих оружия.
3 (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpeh.) Then said the children of Israel, Tell us, how was this wickedness?
И услышаша сынове Вениамини, яко взыдоша сынове Израилевы в Массифу, и рекоша сынове Израилевы: глаголите, где бысть злоба сия?
4 And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was slain, answered and said, I came into Gibeah that belongeth to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge.
И отвеща муж левитин, муж жены умореныя, глаголя: в Гаваон Вениаминь приидох аз и подложница моя витати:
5 And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead.
и восташа на мя мужие Гаваонстии и обыдоша мя во дворе нощию, и хотеша мя убити, и подложницу мою обидеша и обругаша, и умре:
6 And I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel: for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel.
и взях подложницу мою и раздробих ю, и послах ю во вся пределы наследия Израилева, яко сотвориша безумие во Израили:
7 Behold, ye are all children of Israel; give here your advice and counsel.
се, вси вы сынове Израилевы, дадите себе слово и совет зде.
8 And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn into his house.
И восташа вси людие яко един муж, глаголюще: не отидет муж в селение свое, и не возвратится муж в дом свой:
9 But now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gibeah; we will go up by lot against it;
и ныне слово сие, еже сотворим Гаваону: взыдем на него по жребию,
10 And we will take ten men of an hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and an hundred of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to fetch provisions for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that they have wrought in Israel.
токмо возмем по десяти мужей от ста во всех племенех Израилевых, и сто от тысящи, и тысяща от тмы, взяти брашно людем исходящым в Гаваю Вениаминю, сотворити ему по всему согрешению, еже сотвори во Израили.
11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.
И собрашася вси мужие Израилевы ко граду, яко един муж из градов исходяще,
12 And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that is done among you?
и послаша племена Израилева мужей во все племя Вениамине, глаголюще: кая злоба сия бывшая в вас?
13 Now therefore deliver us the men, the perverted men, who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and remove the evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel:
И ныне дадите мужей беззаконных, иже в Гаваи, сынов велиаловых, и умертвим их, и очистим зло от Израиля. И не изволиша сынове Вениамини послушати гласа братии своея сынов Израилевых.
14 But the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
И собрашася сынове Вениамини от градов своих в Гаваю, изыти на брань к сыном Израилевым.
15 And the children of Benjamin were numbered at that time out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
И сочтошася сынове Вениамини от градов в той день двадесять и пять тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружия, кроме живущих в Гаваи:
16 Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lefthanded; every one could sling stones at an hair breadth, and not miss.
ихже сочтеся седмь сот мужей избранных от всех людий ободесноручных: сии вси пращницы мещуще камение ко власу и не погрешающе.
17 And the men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword: all these were men of war.
И всех мужей Израилевых сочтеся, кроме сынов Вениаминовых, четыреста тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружие: вси сии мужие воини.
18 And the children of Israel arose, and went up to the house of God, and asked counsel of God, and said, Which of us shall go up first to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the LORD said, Judah shall go up first.
И восташа, и взыдоша в Вефиль, и вопросиша Бога, и рекоша сынове Израилевы: кто от нас взыдет в начале воевати на сыны Вениамини? И рече Господь: Иуда в начале да взыдет вождь.
19 And the children of Israel rose in the morning, and encamped against Gibeah.
И восташа сынове Израилевы заутра и ополчишася на Гаваю.
20 And the men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel put themselves in array to fight against them at Gibeah.
И изыде всяк муж Израилев на брань с Вениамином, и сразишася с ними мужие Израилевы на брани у Гаваи.
21 And the children of Benjamin came forth from Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites that day twenty and two thousand men.
И изыдоша сынове Вениаминовы из Гаваи, и избиша во Израили в той день двадесять две тысящы мужей на земли.
22 And the people the men of Israel encouraged themselves, and set their battle again in array in the place where they put themselves in array the first day.
И укрепися всяк муж Израилев, и приложиша снитися на брань на место, идеже снидошася в день первый.
23 (And the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up again to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the LORD said, Go up against him.)
И взыдоша сынове Израилевы и плакашася пред Господем до вечера, и вопросиша Господа, глаголюще: аще приложим еще приступити на брань к сыном Вениаминим братиям нашым? И рече Господь: взыдите к ним.
24 And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day.
И приидоша сынове Израилевы к сыном Вениаминим в день вторый.
25 And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword.
И изыдоша сынове Вениамини противу им от Гаваи в день вторый, и избиша еще от сынов Израилевых осмьнадесять тысящ мужей на земли: сии вси воздвизающии оружие.
26 Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to the house of God, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until evening, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
И взыдоша вси сынове Израилевы и вси людие, и приидоша в Вефиль, и плакашася, и седоша тамо пред Господем, и постишася в той день даже до вечера:
27 And the children of Israel enquired of the LORD, (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
и вознесоша всесожжение спасения пред Господем, яко тамо кивот завета Господа Бога во дни оны,
28 And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days, ) saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And the LORD said, Go up; for to morrow I will deliver them into thy hand.
и Финеес сын Елеазара сына Аароня предстоя пред ним в тыя дни. И вопросиша сынове Израилевы Господа, глаголюще: аще приложим взыти еще на брань к сыном Вениаминим братиям нашым, или оставим? И рече Господь: взыдите, заутра предам их в руки вашя.
29 And Israel set men in ambush around Gibeah.
И поставиша сынове Израилевы подсаду окрест Гаваи.
30 And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and put themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
И взыдоша сынове Израилевы к сыном Вениаминим в день третий: и ополчишася на Гаваю яко единою и единою.
31 And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to smite of the people, and kill, as at other times, in the highways, of which one goeth up to the house of God, and the other to Gibeah in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
И изыдоша сынове Вениамини противу людем и протягошася из града, и начаша убивати людий уязвленых, якоже первое и второе на путех, от нихже есть един сходяй в Вефиль, а другий в Гаваю на селе, яко тридесять мужей во Израили.
32 And the children of Benjamin said, They are smitten down before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them from the city to the highways.
И рекоша сынове Вениамини: падают пред нами якоже и прежде. И сынове Израилевы рекоша: побежим и отторгнем их от града на пути. И сотвориша тако.
33 And all the men of Israel rose out of their place, and put themselves in array at Baaltamar: and those of Israel who were in ambush came forth out of their places, even out of the meadows of Gibeah.
И вси мужие Израилевы восташа от места своего и снидошася в Ваал-Фамаре: подсада же Израилева нахождаше от места своего от запада Гаваи.
34 And there came against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was fierce: but they knew not that evil was near them.
И приидоша противу Гаваи десять тысящ мужей избранных от всего Израиля, и брань бяше тяжка: и тии не разумеша, яко постизает их зло.
35 And the LORD smote Benjamin before Israel: and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites that day twenty and five thousand and an hundred men: all these drew the sword.
И порази Господь Вениамина пред сыны Израилевыми: и избиша сынове Израилевы от Вениамина в той день двадесять пять тысящ и сто мужей: сии вси воздвизаху оружие.
36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were smitten: for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted to the ones lying in ambush which they had set beside Gibeah.
И видеша сынове Вениамини, яко поражени суть. И даша место сынове Израилевы Вениамину, понеже уповаша на подсаду, юже подсадиша у Гаваи:
37 And those in ambush hastened, and rushed upon Gibeah; and the ones lying in ambush drew themselves along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.
и подвижеся подсада, и устремися на Гаваю, и избиша весь град острием меча.
38 Now there was an appointed sign between the men of Israel and the men in ambush, that they should make a great flame with smoke to ascend up from the city.
И Израилтяне имяху знамение с подсадою брани, явити знамение дыма из града.
39 And when the men of Israel retired in the battle, Benjamin began to smite and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons: for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first battle.
И возвратися Израиль на брань, и Вениамин нача убивати язвеных во Израили до тридесяти мужей, яко рекоша: паки падением падают пред нами, якоже и первая брань.
40 But when the flame began to ascend up from the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven.
И знамение взыде наипаче над градом, аки столп дыма: и озреся Вениамин вспять, и се, взыде скончание града до небеси.
41 And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed: for they saw that evil had come upon them.
И муж Израилев возвратися: и потщашася мужие Вениамини, видеша бо, яко постиже их зло,
42 Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them.
и побегоша пред сыны Израилевыми на путь пустыни, брань же постиже их, и иже из градов избиваша их среде себе:
43 Thus they inclosed the Benjamites on all sides, and chased them, and trod them down with ease opposite Gibeah toward the sunrising.
и побиваху Вениамина, и гнаша его от Нуа вслед его до Гаваи без опочивания, и поразиша его даже противу Гаваи на восток солнца.
44 And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valour.
И падоша от Вениамина осмьнадесять тысящ мужей, сии вси мужие сильнии.
45 And they turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them to Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them.
И озрешася оставшии, и побегоша в пустыню к каменю Реммоню: и пожаша от них сынове Израилевы по стезям яко стеблие пять тысящ мужей, и гнаша вслед их до Гадаама и избиша от них две тысящы мужей.
46 So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these were men of valour.
И быти всех падших от Вениамина в той день двадесять пять тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружие, вси сии мужие сильнии.
47 But six hundred men turned and fled to the wilderness to the rock Rimmon, and abode in the rock Rimmon four months.
И озрешася оставшии, и вбегоша в пустыню к каменю Реммоню шесть сот мужей, и седеша в камени Реммони четыри месяцы.
48 And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beast, and all that came to hand: also they set on fire all the cities that they came to.
Сынове же Израилевы возвратишася к сыном Вениаминим, и избиша я оружием от града вне, даже и до скота, и все еже обретеся во всех градех, и грады вся обретшыяся пожгоша огнем.
