Первая книга Паралипоменон 21
1 Воста же диавол на Израиля и подусти Давида, да сочислит Израиля.
And the devil stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
2 И рече царь Давид ко Иоаву и к началником силы: идите и сочтите Израиля от Вирсавеи даже до Дана, и принесите ко мне, да познаю число их.
And king David said to Joab and to the captains of the forces, Go, number Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, and bring me [the account], and I shall know their number.
3 И рече Иоав: да приложит Господь к людем Своим, якоже сии сторицею, и очи господина моего царя да видят: не вси ли господину моему царю раби суть? И почто хощет сего господин мой? Дабы не вменилося в грех Израилю.
And Joab said, May the Lord add to his people, a hundred-fold as many as they [are], and [let] the eyes of my lord the king see [it]: all [are] the servants of my lord. Why does my lord seek this thing? [do it not], lest it become a sin to Israel.
4 Но слово царево преможе Иоава: и пойде Иоав, и обыде всего Израиля, и прииде во Иерусалим.
Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab; and Joab went out and passed through all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
5 И даде Иоав Давиду число сочтения людий: и обретеся всего Израиля тысяща тысящ и сто тысящ мужей и носящих оружия: и от сынов Иудиных четыре ста и седмьдесят тысящ мужей носящих оружие:
And Joab gave the number of the mustering of the people to David: and all Israel was a million and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and the sons of Juda [were] four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew sword.
6 Левии же и Вениамина не сочте среде их, понеже вознегодова о словеси цареве Иоав.
But he numbered not Levi and Benjamin among them; for the word of the king was painful to Joab.
7 И не угодно явися пред Богом повеление сие, и порази Израиля.
And [there was] evil in the sight of the Lord respecting this thing; and he struck Israel.
8 Рече же Давид ко Богу: согреших зело, яко сотворих вещь сию: и ныне молю, отими беззаконие раба Твоего, яко обезумихся зело.
And David said to God, I have sinned exceedingly, in that I have done this thing: and now, I pray you, remove the sin of your servant; for I have been exceedingly foolish.
9 И рече Господь ко Гаду пророку Давидову, глаголя:
And the Lord spoke to Gad the seer, saying,
10 иди и рцы к Давиду, глаголя: тако глаголет Господь: трие Аз наведу на тя, избери себе едино от них, и сотворю тебе.
Go and speak to David, saying, Thus says the Lord, I bring three things upon you: choose one of them for yourself, and I will do it to you.
11 И прииде Гад к Давиду и рече ему:
And Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus says the Lord, Choose for yourself,
12 сице глаголет Господь: избери себе, (еже хощеши, ) или три лета глада, или три месяцы бегати тебе от лица враг твоих, и оружие враг твоих постигнет тя, или три дни мечь Господень, и смерть на землю, и Ангел Господень убиваяй во всем наследии Израилеве: ныне убо разсмотри, что отвещаю Пославшему мя со словом.
either three years of famine, or that you should flee three months from the face of your enemies, and the sword of your enemies [shall be employed] to destroy you, or that the sword of the Lord and pestilence [should be] three days in the land, and the angel of the Lord [shall be] destroying in all the inheritance of Israel. And now consider what I shall answer to him that sent the message.
13 И рече Давид ко Гаду: тесна ми суть три сия зело: но лучше ми есть впасти в руце Господни, зане многи щедроты Его зело, в руки же человеческия да не впаду.
And David said to Gad, They are very hard for me, even [all] the three: let me fall now into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies [are] very abundant, and let me not fall by any means into the hands of man.
14 И посла Господь смерть во Израиля, и падоша от Израиля седмьдесят тысящ мужей.
So the Lord brought pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
15 И посла Бог Ангела во Иерусалим, да избиет его. И егда избиваше, виде Господь и раскаяся о зле, и рече Ангелу избивающему: довлеет ти, отими руку твою. Ангел же Господень стояше на гумне Орны Иевусеанина.
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the Lord saw, and repented for the evil, and said to the angel that was destroying, Let it suffice you; withhold your hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
16 И возведе Давид очи своя, и виде Ангела Господня стояща между землею и небом, и мечь его извлечен в руку его, простерт на Иерусалим. И паде Давид и старейшины (Израилевы) облеченнии во вретище на лице свое,
And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord, standing between the earth and the heaven, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem: and David and the elders clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
17 и рече Давид к Богу: не аз ли повелех сочислити люди? Аз есмь, иже согреших, и зло творя зло сотворих, сия же овцы что сотвориша? Господи Боже мой, да будет рука Твоя на мне и на дому отца моего, а не на людех Твоих в погубление, Господи.
And David said to God, [Was it] not I [that] gave orders to number the people? and I am the guilty one; I have greatly sinned: but these sheep, what have they done? O Lord God, let your hand be upon me, and upon my father's house, and not on your people for destruction, O Lord!
18 Ангел же Господень рече Гаду, еже глаголати к Давиду: да взыдет и созиждет олтарь Господу Богу на гумне Орны Иевусеанина.
And the angel of the Lord told Gad to tell David, that he should go up to erect and altar to the Lord, in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
19 И взыде Давид по словеси Гадову, еже глагола именем Господним.
And David went up according to the word of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the Lord.
20 И обратися Орна и виде царя, и четыри сынове его с ним крыющиися. Орна же бе (в то время) млатя на гумне пшеницу.
And Orna turned and saw the king; and he hid himself and his four sons with him. Now Orna was threshing wheat.
21 И прииде Давид ко Орне, и обратися Орна, и узре Давида, и пойде от гумна, и поклонися Давиду лицем на землю.
And David came to Orna; and Orna came forth from the threshing floor, and did obeisance to David with his face to the ground.
22 Рече же Орне Давид: даждь мне место гумна твоего, да созижду на нем олтарь Господеви, на сребре достойне даждь ми е, и престанет язва от людий.
And David said to Orna, Give me your place of the threshing floor, and I will build upon it an altar to the Lord: give it me for its worth in money, and the plague shall cease from [among] the people.
23 Рече же Орна к Давиду: возми себе, и да сотворит господин мой царь, еже угодно пред ним: се, даю телцы на всесожжение, и плуг на дрова, и пшеницу в жертву, вся (добровольно) даю.
And Orna said to David, Take it to yourself, and let my lord the king do what is right in his eyes: see, I have given the calves for a whole burnt offering, and the plow for wood, and the corn for a meat-offering; I have given all.
24 И рече царь Давид Орне: ни, но куплею куплю, сребром достойным, понеже не возму Господеви, яже суть твоя, еже вознести всесожжение туне Господеви.
And king David said to Orna, Nay; for I will surely buy it for its worth in money: for I will not take your property for the Lord, to offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord without cost [to myself].
25 И даде Давид Орне за место то сикль златых весом шесть сот.
And David gave to Orna for his place six hundred shekels of gold [by] weight.
26 И созда ту Давид олтарь Господеви, и вознесе всесожжения и спасителная и воззва ко Господу, и услыша его во огни от небесе на олтарь всесожжения, и потреби всесожжение.
And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings: and he cried to the Lord, and he answered him by fire out of heaven on the altar of whole burnt offerings, and [it] consumed the whole burnt offering.
27 И рече Господь ко Ангелу: и вложи мечь во влагалище его.
And the Lord spoke to the angel; and he put up the sword into its sheath.
28 Во время оно, егда виде Давид, яко услыша его Господь на гумне Орны Иевусеанина, и пожре ту жертвы.
At that time when David saw that the Lord answered him in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite, he also sacrificed there.
29 И скиния Господня, юже сотвори Моисей в пустыни, и олтарь всесожжения во время оно бысть в вышнем, еже в Гаваоне.
And the tabernacle of the Lord which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of whole burnt offerings, [were] at that time in the high place at Gabaon.
30 И не возможе Давид ити пред него, еже вопросити Бога, понеже устрашен бысть от лица меча Ангела Господня.
And David could not go before it to enquire of God; for he hasted not because of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
