Первая книга Царств 17
1 И собираша иноплеменницы полки своя на брань, и собрашася в Сокхофе Иудейстем, и ополчишася среде Сокхофа и среди Азика во Афесдоммине.
And the Philistines gathered together their hosts, unto battle, and they were gathered together unto Socoh, which belongeth unto Judah, —and they encamped between Socoh and Azekah in Ephes-dammim;
2 Саул же и мужие Израилевы собрашася и ополчишася во удоли Теревинфа и устрояхуся на брань противу иноплеменником.
and, Saul and the men of Israel, gathered themselves together, and encamped in the vale of Elah, and set the army in array against the Philistines.
3 И иноплеменницы стояху на горе отсюду особь, Израиль же стояше на горе отюнуду, и удоль между ими бяше.
And, the Philistines, were standing near the hill on one side, and, the Israelites, were standing near the hill on the other side, —while, the valley, was between them.
4 И изыде муж силен из полка иноплеменнича, имя ему Голиаф от Гефа, высота его шесть лакот и пядь:
And there came forth a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, Goliath, his name, from Gath, —his height, six cubits and a span;
5 и шлем медян на главе его, и в броню кольчату той оболчен бяше: и вес брони его пять тысящ сикль меди и железа:
with a helmet of bronze on his head, and, with a scaly coat of mail, was he clad, —the weight of the coat, being five thousand shekels of bronze;
6 и поножы медяны верху голений его, и щит медян на плещах его:
and, greaves of bronze, on his feet, —and, a javelin of bronze, between his shoulders;
7 и ратовище копия его аки орудие ткущих, и копие его шесть сот сикль железа: и носяй оружие его идяше пред ним.
and, the shaft of his spear, was like a weaver’s beam, and, the flashing head of his spear, was six hundred shekels of iron, —and, his shield-bearer, was coming on before him.
8 И ста и возопи пред полки Израилевыми и рече им: почто изыдосте, ополчитися ли на брань противу нам? Несмь ли аз иноплеменник, вы же Еврее Сауловы? Изберите себе мужа, и да снидет ко мне:
And he took his stand, and cried unto the ranks of Israel, and said unto them, Wherefore should ye come out, to set in array for battle? Am not, I, a Philistine, while, ye, are servants unto Saul? Choose you a man, and let him come down unto me:
9 и аще возможет со мною братися и одолеет ми, будем вам раби: аще же аз возмогу одолети ему, будете вы нам раби и поработаете нам.
If he prevail in fighting with me, and smite me, then will we become your servants, —but, if, I, prevail over him, and smite him, then shall ye become our servants, and serve, us.
10 И рече иноплеменник: се, аз днесь уничижих полк Израилев в сей день: дадите ми мужа, иже поборется со мною един.
And the Philistine said—I, reproach the ranks of Israel, this day, —give me a man, that we may fight together.
11 И слыша Саул и весь Израиль глаголы иноплеменничи сия и ужасошася и убояшася зело.
When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and feared exceedingly.
12 Давид же Ефрафеев, сей бе от Вифлеема Иудина, имя же отцу его Иессей, емуже бе осмь сынов. Во дни же Сауловы бе муж той состареся в мужех.
Now, David, was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem-judah, whose, name, was Jesse, and, who, had eight sons, —and, the man, in the days of Saul was old, advanced in years.
13 И идоша три сыны Иессеевы старейшии на брань с Саулом: имена же сынов его пошедших на брань, Елиав первородный его, и вторый Аминадав, и третий Самма.
And the three eldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle, —and, the names of his three sons who went into the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and, the next to him, Abinadab, and, the third, Shammah.
14 Давид же бе юнейший, и три болшии его идоша вслед Саула.
But, as for David, he, was the youngest, —and, the three eldest, followed Saul;
15 Давид же возвратився от Саула, отиде пасти овцы отца своего в Вифлеем.
whereas, David, kept going and returning from Saul, —to tend his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.
16 И прихождаше иноплеменник утро и в вечер, являяся пред Израилем четыредесять дний.
And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, —and presented himself forty days.
17 И рече Иессей Давиду сыну своему: возми убо братиям твоим меру ефи муки и десять хлеб сих, и иди в полк, и даждь братиям твоим:
And Jesse said unto David his son, Take, I pray thee, unto thy brethren—this ephah of parched corn, and these ten loaves, —and run to the camp unto thy brethren;
18 и десять сыров от млека сего, и даждь тысящнику: и братию свою посети в мире, и еликих аще требуют, увеси, субботствовати же будеши со мною.
also these ten slices of soft cheese, shalt thou take to the captain of their thousand, —and, as for thy brethren, give good heed to their welfare, their pledge, also shalt thou receive.
19 Саул же и вси людие бяху во удоли дуба ратующеся со иноплеменники.
Now, Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the vale of Elah, ready to fight with the Philistines.
20 И воста Давид рано, овцы же остави со стражею, и взя, и отиде, якоже заповеда ему отец его Иессей: и прииде на место, идеже исхождаху сильнии на брань и вопияху в полцех.
So then David rose up early in the morning, and entrusted the sheep to a keeper, and took up [the provisions] and went his way, as Jesse had commanded him, —and came into the circular rampart, as, the force, was going forth into the ranks, and shouted for the fight.
21 Занеже вооружашеся Израиль противу иноплеменником, и иноплеменницы вооружахуся противу Израиля.
So Israel and the Philistines set in array for battle, army against army.
22 И положи Давид бремя свое в руках стража, и тече в полк, и пришед вопроси братию свою в мире.
Then David entrusted the provisions that were upon him to the care of the keeper of the stores, and ran unto the ranks, —and came and asked for the welfare of his brethren.
23 Глаголющу же ему с ними, и се, муж месейский, емуже имя Голиаф, Филистимлянин от Гефы, изыде от полков иноплеменничих и глагола по словесем сим, и услыша Давид.
Now, as he was speaking with them, lo! the champion coming up, Goliath the Philistine, by name, of Gath, [coming up] out of the ranks of the Philistines, and he spake according to these words, —and David heard [them].
24 И вси мужие Израилевы егда увидеша мужа, и бежаша от лица его и убояшася зело.
Now, all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from before him, and feared exceedingly.
25 И реша мужие Израилтестии: видесте ли мужа сего восходяща, яко поносити Израиля прииде? И аще будет муж, иже убиет его, обогатит его царь богатством велиим, и дщерь свою даст ему, и дом отца его сотворит свободен во Израили.
And the men of Israel said—Have ye seen this man that is coming up? For, to reproach Israel, is he coming. So then it shall be, that, the man that shall smite him, the same, will the king enrich with great riches, and, his own daughter, will give him, and, his father’s house, will he make free in Israel.
26 И рече Давид к мужем стоящым с ним, глаголя: что сотворите мужу, иже убиет иноплеменника онаго и отимет поношение от Израиля? Яко кто есть иноплеменник необрезанный сей, иже поносит полку Бога живаго?
Then spake David unto the men that were standing by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that shall smite yonder Philistine, and so shall take away reproach from off Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he hath reproached the ranks of a Living God?
27 И рекоша ему людие по словеси сему, глаголюще: тако сотворится мужу, иже убиет его.
And the people answered him, according to this word saying, —So, shall it be done to the man that shall smite him.
28 И услыша Елиав брат его болший, внегда глаголати ему к мужем: и разгневася яростию Елиав на Давида и рече: почто семо пришел еси? И кому оставил еси малыя овцы оны в пустыни? Вем аз гордость твою и злобу сердца твоего, яко видения ради брани пришел еси.
Now Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men, —then was kindled the anger of Eliab against David, and he said—Wherefore is it that thou hast come down? and to whom hast thou entrusted those few sheep in the wilderness? I, know thy pride, and the foolishness of thy heart, for, to see the battle, hast thou come down.
29 И рече Давид: что сотворих ныне? Несть ли речь?
And David said, What have I done, now? Was there not, a cause?
30 И отвратися от него ко иному и рече по словеси сему. И отвещаша ему людие по словеси прежнему.
Then turned he from him unto another, and said—according to this word, —and the people returned him an answer, like the first.
31 И слышаны быша глаголы, ихже глагола Давид, и возвестиша пред Саулом: и пояша его людие и приведоша его пред Саула.
And the words which David spake were overheard, —and, when they told them before Saul, he summoned him.
32 И рече Давид к Саулу: да не ужасается сердце господину моему о сем, раб твой пойдет и поборется со иноплеменником сим.
And David said unto Saul, Let not the heart of my lord fail, because of him, —thy servant, will go, and fight with this Philistine.
33 И рече Саул к Давиду: не возможеши пойти ко иноплеменнику сему братися с ним, яко ты детищь еси, сей же муж борец есть от юности своея.
And Saul said unto David—Thou art not able to go against this Philistine, to fight with him, —for, a youth, art, thou, but, he, a man of war, from his youth.
34 И рече Давид к Саулу: егда пасяше раб твой отца своего стадо, и егда прихождаше лев или медведица и восхищаше от стада овцу едину:
Then said David unto Saul, Thy servant used to tend his father’s sheep, —and there would come a lion, or a bear, and carry off a lamb out of the flock;
35 и аз вслед его исхождах и поражах его, и исторгах из уст его (взятое): и аще воспротивляшеся ми, то взем за гортань его, поражах и умерщвлях его:
and I would go out after him, and smite him, and rescue it out of his mouth, —and, if he rose against me, I would catch him by his beard, and smite him, and slay him.
36 и льва и медведицу бияше раб твой, и будет иноплеменник необрезанный сей яко един от сих: не поиду ли, и поражу его, и отиму днесь поношение от Израиля? Понеже кто необрезанный сей, иже уничижи полк Бога жива?
Thy servant could slay, either a lion or a bear, —and, this uncircumcised Philistine, shall become, as one of them, for he hath reproached the ranks of a Living God.
37 И рече Давид: Господь иже изят мя от руки львовы и от руки медведицы, той измет мя от руки иноплеменника сего необрезаннаго. И рече Саул к Давиду: иди, и да будет Господь с тобою.
And David said, Yahweh, who hath rescued me out of the power of the lion, and out of the power of the bear, he, will rescue us out of the hand of this Philistine. Then said Saul unto David—Go! and, Yahweh, will be with thee.
38 И облече Саул Давида одеждею, и шлем медян возложи на главу его,
And Saul clad David with his own military coat, and set a helmet of bronze upon his head, —and clad him with a coat of mail.
39 и препояса Давида оружием своим верху одежды его. Давид же походив (во оружии) семо и овамо, утрудися, яко не обыче. И рече Давид Саулу: не могу ити в сих, яко не обыкох. И взяша от него сия.
And David girded his sword above his military coat, but was reluctant to go, for he had not proved them, —so David said unto Saul—I cannot go in these, for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.
40 И взя палицу свою в руку свою, и избра себе пять камений гладких от потока, и вложи я в тоболец пастырский егоже ношаше, и пращу свою имый в руце своей, и иде к мужу иноплеменнику.
Then took he his stick in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the torrent-bed, and put them in the shepherd’s-pouch which he had—even in the wallet, and had his sling in his hand, —and so drew near unto the Philistine.
41 И идяше иноплеменник приближаяся к Давиду, и носяй оружие его пред ним (идяше).
And the Philistine came on and on, and drew near unto David, —and the man carrying the shield was before him.
42 И виде Голиаф иноплеменник Давида и обезчествова его, зане той детищь бе, и чермен и леп очима.
And, when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him, —for he was a youth, and ruddy, a stripling of fair countenance.
43 И рече иноплеменник к Давиду: еда пес аз есмь, яко ты идеши противу мене с палицею и камением? И рече Давид: ни, но и хуждший пса. И прокля иноплеменник Давида боги своими.
Then said the Philistine unto David, A dog, am, I, that thou art coming unto me, with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David, by his god.
44 И рече иноплеменник к Давиду: гряди ко мне, и дам плоть твою птицам небесным и зверем земным.
And the Philistine said unto David, —Come, unto me, that I may give thy flesh to the birds of heaven, and to the beasts of the field.
45 И рече Давид иноплеменнику: ты идеши на мя с мечем и с копием и щитом, аз же иду на тя во имя Господа Бога Саваофа, Бога ополчения Израилева, егоже ты уничижил еси днесь:
Then said David unto the Philistine—Thou, art coming unto me with sword, and with spear, and with javelin, —but, I, am coming unto thee in the name of Yahweh of hosts, God of the ranks of Israel which thou hast reproached.
46 и предаст тя Господь днесь в руце мои, и убию тя, и отиму главу твою от тебе, и дам тело твое и телеса полка иноплеменнича в день сей птицам небесным и зверем земным: и уразумеет вся земля, яко есть Господь Бог во Израили,
This day, will Yahweh deliver thee into my hand, and I will smite thee, and take thy head from off thee, and will give thy dead body and the dead bodies of the host of Philistines, this day, unto the birds of heaven, and unto the wild beasts of the earth, —that all the earth may know that Israel hath a God;
47 и уразумеет весь сонм сей, яко не мечем ни копием спасает Господь, яко Господня брань, и предаст Господь вас в руки нашя.
and that all this gathered host may know that, not with sword and with spear, doth Yahweh save, —for, unto Yahweh, belongeth the battle, and he will deliver you into our hand.
48 И воста иноплеменник и иде во сретение Давиду. И ускори Давид и тече на сражение во сретение иноплеменнику.
And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the ranks to meet the Philistine.
49 И простре Давид руку свою в тоболец, и изя из него камень един, (и вложи в пращу, ) и верже пращею, и порази иноплеменника в чело его, и унзе камень под шлемом его в чело его, и паде (Голиаф) на лицы своем на землю.
And David thrust his hand into his pouch, and took from thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine, in his forehead, —that the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell upon his face, to the earth.
50 И укрепися Давид над иноплеменником пращею и каменем, и порази иноплеменника, и умертви его: оружия же не бе в руце Давидове.
Thus David prevailed over the Philistine, with the sling and with the stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him, —but, sword, was there none in the hand of David.
51 И тече скоро Давид, и ста над ним, и взя мечь его, и извлече его от недр его, и умертви его, и отсече им главу его. И видеша иноплеменницы, яко умре сильный их, и бежаша.
So David ran, and stood by the Philistine, and took his sword and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off, therewith, his head, —and, when the Philistines saw that their hero was slain, they fled.
52 И восташа мужие Израилевы и Иудины и воскликнуша, и погнаша созади их даже до входа Гефова и до врат Аскалонских: и падоша уязвленни (мнози) иноплеменницы по пути врат и даже до Гефа и Аккарона.
Then arose the men of Israel and Judah, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, as far as the entrance into Gath, and as far as the gates of Ekron, —and the slain of the Philistines fell in the way to the two gates, even as far as Gath and as far as Ekron.
53 И возвратишася мужие Израилевы гнавшии вслед иноплеменник, и потопташа полки их.
And the sons of Israel returned from hotly pursuing the Philistines, —and plundered their camps.
54 И взя Давид главу иноплеменника и внесе ю во Иерусалим, и оружие его положи во храмине своей.
And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it into Jerusalem, —but, his armour, put he into his tent.
55 И егда виде Саул Давида исходяща во сретение иноплеменника, рече ко Авениру князю силы: чий есть сын юноша сей, Авенире? И рече Авенир: да живет душа твоя, царю, яко не вем.
And, when Saul saw David going forth to meet the Philistine, he said unto Abner, prince of the host, Whose son is the young man, Abner? And Abner said, By the life of thy soul, O king! I know not.
56 И рече царь: вопроси убо ты, чий есть сын юноша сей?
Then said the king, —Ask, thou, whose son the stripling is?
57 Егда же возвратися Давид по убиении иноплеменника, взя его Авенир и приведе его пред Саула: глава же иноплеменнича бе в руце его.
And, when David returned from smiting the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul, —with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 И рече к нему Саул: чий еси сын, юноше? И рече Давид: сын раба твоего Иессеа от Вифлеема.
And Saul said unto him, Whose son art, thou, O young man? And David said, Son of thy servant Jesse, the Bethlehemite.
