Joshua 2
1 Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent two men out of Shittim as spies, saying, “Go, view the land, including Jericho.” They went and came into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab, and slept there.
И посла Иисус сын Навин из Саттина два юношы соглядати втай, глаголя: взыдите и видите землю и Иерихон. И шедша два юношы внидоста во Иерихон и внидоста в дом жены блудницы, ейже имя Раав: и витаста тамо.
2 The king of Jericho was told, “Behold, men of the children of Israel came in here tonight to spy out the land.”
И поведаша царю Иерихонскому, глаголюще: се, мужие внидоша семо (в сию нощь) от сынов Израилевых соглядати землю.
3 Jericho’s king sent to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered into your house; for they have come to spy out all the land.”
И посла царь Иерихонский и рече к Рааве, глаголя: изведи мужы вшедшыя в дом твой нощию: соглядати бо землю приидоша.
4 The woman took the two men and hid them. Then she said, “Yes, the men came to me, but I didn’t know where they came from.
И поемши жена два мужа, сокры их: и рече им, глаголющи: приидоша ко мне мужие, но не вем откуду быша:
5 About the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, the men went out. Where the men went, I don’t know. Pursue them quickly. You may catch up with them.”
егда же врата затворяху в сумраки, и мужие изыдоша: не вем камо поидоша: пожените скоро вслед их, аще постигнете их.
6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hidden them under the stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof.
Она же возведе я на храмину и сокры я в паздере льняне собранем у нея на храмине.
7 The men pursued them along the way to the fords of the Jordan River. As soon as those who pursued them had gone out, they shut the gate.
И мужие гнаша вслед их путем ко Иордану к преходом, и врата затворены быша.
8 Before they had lain down, she came up to them on the roof.
И бысть егда изыдоша женущии вслед их, и сии прежде неже уснути им, и она взыде к ним на храмину и рече к ним:
9 She said to the men, “I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
вем, яко предаде Господь землю (сию) вам: нападе бо страх ваш на ны, и ужасошася вси обитающии на земли от лица вашего:
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Sea of Suf before you, when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
слышахом бо, яко изсуши Господь Бог море Чермное пред лицем вашим, егда исхождасте из Египта, и елика сотвористе двоим царем Аморрейским, иже быша об ону страну Иордана, Сиону и Огу, ихже потребисте:
11 As soon as we had heard it, our hearts melted, and there wasn’t any more spirit in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
и слышавше мы ужасохомся в сердцы нашем, и не ста ктому дух ни во единем от нас от лица вашего: яко Господь Бог ваш, Бог на небеси горе и на земли доле:
12 Now therefore, please swear to me by the LORD, since I have dealt kindly with you, that you also will deal kindly with my father’s house, and give me a true sign;
и ныне кленитеся мне Господем Богом (вашим), яко аз творю милость вам, да сотворите и вы милость в дому отца моего, и дадите ми знамение истинно:
13 and that you will save alive my father, my mother, my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death.”
и оживите дом отца моего, и матерь мою, и братию мою, и сестры моя, и вся, елика суть им, и измите душы нашя от смерти.
14 The men said to her, “Our life for yours, if you don’t talk about this business of ours; and it shall be, when the LORD gives us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you.”
И рекоша ей мужие: душа наша вместо вас на смерть, аще ныне не объявиши нас. Она же рече: и будет егда предаст Господь вам град (сей), сотворите мне милость и истину.
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was on the side of the wall, and she lived on the wall.
И свеси их на верве окном: яко дом ея при стене, и при стене сия живяше:
16 She said to them, “Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers find you. Hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward, you may go your way.”
и рече им: отидите в гору, да не срящут вас гонящии, и скрыйтеся тамо три дни, дондеже возвратятся гонящии вслед вас: и по сих отидете в путь ваш.
17 The men said to her, “We will be guiltless of this your oath which you’ve made us to swear.
И реша к ней мужие: неповинни есмы клятве сей твоей, еюже закляла еси нас:
18 Behold, when we come into the land, tie this line of scarlet thread in the window which you used to let us down. Gather to yourself into the house your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household.
се, мы входим в часть града, и поставиши знамение, вервь червлену, сию да обяжеши у окна, имже спустила еси нас: отца же твоего и матерь твою, и братию твою и весь дом отца твоего да собереши к себе в дом твой:
19 It shall be that whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, and we will be guiltless. Whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is on him.
и будет всяк, иже аще изыдет из дверий дому твоего вон, сам себе повинен будет, мы же неповинни (будем) клятве твоей сей: и елицы аще с тобою будут в дому твоем, мы будем повинни, аще рука прикоснется их:
20 But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you’ve made us to swear.”
аще же кто нас обидит, или открыет словеса наша сия, будем неповинни клятве твоей сей, еюже закляла еси нас.
21 She said, “Let it be as you have said.” She sent them away, and they departed. Then she tied the scarlet line in the window.
И рече им: по словеси вашему тако да будет. И отпусти их, и отидоша: и привяза вервь червлену у окна.
22 They went and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. The pursuers sought them all along the way, but didn’t find them.
И отидоша, и проидоша в гору, и пребыша тамо три дни, дондеже возвратишася гнавшии. И искаша гонящии по всем путем, и не обретоша.
23 Then the two men returned, descended from the mountain, crossed the river, and came to Joshua the son of Nun. They told him all that had happened to them.
И возвратистася два юношы и снидоста с горы: и преидоста (Иордан) ко Иисусу сыну Навину, и поведаста ему вся случившаяся има:
24 They said to Joshua, “Truly the LORD has delivered all the land into our hands. Moreover, all the inhabitants of the land melt away before us.”
и реста ко Иисусу: яко предаде Господь Бог наш в руце наши всю землю, и убояшася вси живущии на земли той от нас.
