Первая книга Царств 19
1 И глагола Саул к Ионафану сыну своему и ко всем отроком своим, да умертвят Давида. Ионафан же сын Саулов любяше Давида зело.
And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that he would kill David. But Jonathan the son of Saul delighted greatly in David.
2 И возвести Ионафан Давиду, глаголя: отец мой Саул ищет тя убити: сохранися убо заутра рано, и скрыйся, и сяди втайне:
And Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee; now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
3 и аз изыду, и стану при отце моем на селе, идеже еси ты: и аз возглаголю отцу моему о тебе, и узрю, что будет, и возвещу тебе.
And I will go out and stand by the side of my father in the field where thou art, and I myself will speak of thee to my father; and I will see what it is, and I will tell thee.
4 И глагола Ионафан о Давиде благая к Саулу отцу своему, и рече к нему: да не согрешает царь на раба своего Давида, яко не согреши пред тобою, и дела его блага суть зело:
And Jonathan spoke favorably of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; since he hath not sinned against thee, and because his deeds are very good for thee;
5 и положи душу свою в руце своей и победи иноплеменника, и сотвори Господь спасение велико всему Израилю, и вси видеша и возрадовашася: и почто согрешаеши в кровь неповинну, еже убити Давида туне?
And he did put his life in his hand, and he slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel; thou sawest it, and wast rejoiced: wherefore then wilt thou commit sin on innocent blood, by slaying David without a cause?
6 И послуша Саул гласа Ионафаня: и клятся Саул, глаголя: жив Господь, яко не умрет (Давид).
And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As the Lord liveth, he shall not be put to death.
7 И призва Ионафан Давида и возвести ему вся глаголы сия, и введе Ионафан Давида к Саулу, и бе пред ним яко вчера и третияго дне.
And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
8 И приложися брань быти на Саула, и укрепися Давид, и победи иноплеменники, и изби язвою великою зело, и бежаша от лица его.
And the war occurred again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great defeat, and they fled from before him.
9 И бысть от Бога дух лукавый на Сауле, и той в дому своем седяше, и копие в руце его, Давид же играше руками своими:
And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
10 и искаше Саул копием поразити Давида, и отступи Давид от лица Сауля, и удари Саул копием в стену: Давид же отшед спасеся в нощь ту.
And Saul sought to strike David through with the spear even to the wall; but he slipped away from before Saul, who struck the spear into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
11 И посла Саул вестники в дом Давидов стрещи его, еже убити его рано. И возвести Давиду Мелхола жена его, глаголющи: аще ты не спасеши души твоея в нощь сию, заутра умреши.
But Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal his wife told it to David, saying, If thou save not thy life this night, tomorrow thou wilt be put to death.
12 И свеси Мелхола Давида оконцем, и отиде, и убежа, и спасеся:
And Michal let David down through the window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
13 и прият Мелхола тщепогребалная, и положи на одре, и печень козию положи на возглавии его, и покры я ризами.
And Michal took an image, and put it in the bed, and a pillow of goats' hair she put for its head to rest on, and covered it with a cloth.
14 И посла Саул вестники, да имут Давида, и рекоша, яко болен есть.
And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
15 И посла Саул, да оглядают Давида, глаголя: принесите его на одре ко мне, еже умертвити его.
And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may put him to death.
16 И приидоша слуги, и се, тщепогребалная на одре и козия печень при возглавии его.
And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for its head to rest on.
17 И рече Саул к Мелхоле: почто тако обманула мя еси, и отпустила еси врага моего, и гонзе мене? И рече Мелхола Саулу: сам ми рече: отпусти мя: аще же ни, погублю тя.
And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou thus deceived me, and sent away my enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal said to Saul, He said unto me, Let me go away: why should I kill thee?
18 И Давид убежа и спасеся, и иде к Самуилу во Армафем и поведа ему вся, елика сотвори ему Саул. И идоста Давид и Самуил и седоста в Навафе в Раме.
So David fled, and escaped, and came unto Samuel to Ramah, and he told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and remained in Nayoth.
19 И возвестиша Саулу, глаголюще: се, Давид в Навафе в Раме.
And it was told unto Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Nayoth near Ramah.
20 И посла слуги Саул яти Давида, и видеша собор пророков, и Самуил стояше настоятель над ними: и бысть Дух Божий на слугах Саулих, и начаша прорицати.
And Saul sent messengers to take David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as superintendent over them: then came upon the messengers of Saul the spirit of God, and they also prophesied.
21 И возвестиша Саулу, и посла другия слуги, и прорицати начаша и тии. И приложи Саул послати слуги третия, и начаша и тии прорицати.
And when it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and these prophesied likewise. And Saul sent again messengers the third time, and these also prophesied.
22 И разгневася гневом Саул, и иде и сам во Армафем, и прииде даже до кладязя гумна, еже есть в Сефе, и вопроси и рече: где есть Самуил и Давид? И реша: се, в Навафе в Раме.
Then went he himself also to Ramah, and came as far as the great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And some one said, Behold, they are at Nayoth near Ramah.
23 И иде оттуду в Наваф (иже) в Раме: и бысть и на нем Дух Божий, и идяше идый и прорицая, дондеже приити ему в Наваф иже в Раме.
And he went thither to Nayoth near Ramah: and there came upon him also the Spirit of God, and he went on, and prophesied as he went, until he came to Nayoth near Ramah.
24 И совлече ризы своя и прорицаше пред ними: и паде наг весь день той и всю нощь. Того ради глаголаху: еда и Саул во пророцех?
And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied himself before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore people are in the habit of saying, Is Saul too among the prophets?
