Первая книга Царств 23
1 И возвестиша Давиду, глаголюще: се, иноплеменницы облегоша Кеиль, и расхищают и попирают плоды.
And it was told David, saying, behold, the Philistines war in Keila, and they rob, they trample on the threshing-floors.
2 И вопроси Давид Господа, глаголя: аще пойду и избию иноплеменники сия? И рече Господь: иди, и победиши иноплеменники сия, и спасеши Кеиль.
And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and strike these Philistines? And the Lord said, Go, and you shall strike these Philistines, and shall save Keila.
3 И реша мужие Давидовы к нему: се, мы зде во Иудеи боимся, и како будет, аще идем в Кеиль, в плен иноплеменников внидем?
And the men of David said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judea; and how shall it be if we go to Keila? Shall we go after the spoils of the Philistines?
4 И приложи еще Давид вопросити Господа. И отвеща ему Господь и рече ему: востани и сниди в Кеиль, яко Аз предаю иноплеменники в руце твои.
And David enquired yet again of the Lord; and the Lord answered him, and said to him, Arise and go down to Keila, for I will deliver the Philistines into your hands.
5 И иде Давид и мужие его с ним в Кеиль, и брашася со иноплеменники: и бежаша (иноплеменницы) от лица его, и взя скоты их, и порази их язвою великою, и спасе Давид живущыя в Кеиле.
So David and his men with him went to Keila, and fought with the Philistines; and they fled from before him, and he carried off their cattle, and struck them with a great slaughter, and David rescued the inhabitants of Keila.
6 И бысть егда бежа Авиафар сын Авимелехов к Давиду, и той с Давидом в Кеиль сниде, имый ефуд в руце своей.
And it came to pass when Abiathar the son of Achimelech fled to David, that he went down with David to Keila, having and ephod in his hand.
7 И возвестися Саулу, яко прииде Давид в Кеиль. И рече Саул: предаде его Бог в руце мои, яко заключися вшед в град (имущь) врата и вереи.
And it was told Saul that David was come to Keila: and Saul said, God has sold him into my hands, for he is shut up, having entered into a city that has gates and bars.
8 И заповеда Саул всем людем на брань снити в Кеиль, яти Давида и мужы его.
And Saul charged all the people to go down to war to Keila, to besiege David and his men.
9 И уведе Давид, яко не премолкает злобы о нем Саул, и рече Давид ко Авиафару жерцу: принеси ефуд Господень.
And David knew that Saul spoke openly of mischief against him: and David said to Abiathar the priest, Bring the ephod of the Lord.
10 И рече Давид: Господи Боже Израилев, слышав услыша раб Твой, яко ищет Саул приити на Кеиль растлити град мене ради:
And David said, Lord God of Israel, your servant has indeed heard, that Saul seeks to come against Keila to destroy the city on my account.
11 аще заключится? И ныне аще снидет Саул, якоже слыша раб Твой? Господи Боже Израилев, возвести рабу Твоему. И рече Господь: заключится.
Will [the place] be shut up? And now will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? Lord God of Israel, tell your servant.
12 И рече Давид: аще предадят мя иже в Кеиле, и мужы моя в руки Саули? И рече Господь: предадят.
And the Lord said, It will be shut up.
13 И воста Давид и мужие его с ним, яко четыреста, и изыдоша из Кеилы, и идоша, аможе хотяху. И возвестиша Саулу, яко угонзе Давид из Кеилы: и остави ити.
And David arose, and the men with him, in number about four hundred, and they went forth from Keila, and went wherever they could go: and it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keila, and he forbore to come.
14 И седе Давид в Масереме в пустыни во узинах, и седяше в пустыни на горе Зиф, в земли знойне: и искаше его Саул во вся дни, и не предаде его Бог в руце его.
And he lived in Maserem in the wilderness, in the narrow [passes]; and lived in the wilderness in mount Ziph, in the dry country. And Saul sought him continually, but the Lord delivered him not into his hands.
15 И виде Давид, яко исходит Саул искати его: и Давид бяше на горе знойне, в дубраве Зиф.
And David perceived that Saul went forth to seek David; and David was in the dry mountain in the New Ziph.
16 И воста Ионафан сын Саулов и иде к Давиду в дубраву, и утверди руце его во Господе,
And Jonathan son of Saul rose, and went to David to Caene, and strengthened his hands in the Lord.
17 и рече к нему: не бойся, яко не имать обрести тебе рука отца моего Саула, и ты имаши царствовати во Израили, и аз буду по тебе другий, и Саул отец мой уведа тако.
And he said to him, Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you; and you shall be king over Israel, and I shall be second to you; and Saul my father knows it.
18 И положиста оба завет пред Господем: и седяше Давид в дубраве, а Ионафан отиде в дом свой.
So they both made a covenant before the Lord; and David lived in Caene, and Jonathan went to his home.
19 И изыдоша Зифее от знойныя земли к Саулу на холм, глаголюще: не се ли Давид скрыся у нас в Мессаре во узинах в дубраве на холме Ехелатсте, иже одесную Иесемона?
And the Ziphites came up out of the dry country to Saul to the hill, saying, Behold, is not David hidden with us in Messara, in the narrows in Caene in the hill of Echela, which is on the right of Jessaemon?
20 И ныне все еже по души цареве ко исхождению, да снидет (убо) к нам: заключиша бо его в руки царевы.
And now [according to] all the king's desire to come down, let him come down to us; they have shut him up into the hands of the king.
21 И рече им Саул: благословени вы Господеви, яко поболесте о мне:
And Saul said to them, Blessed [be] you of the Lord, for you have been grieved on my account.
22 идите ныне, и уготовите еще, и познайте место его, идеже будет нога его вскоре, тамо идеже ресте, да не како прехитрит:
Go, I pray you, and make preparations yet, and notice his place where his foot shall be, quickly, in that place which you spoke of, lest by any means he should deal craftily.
23 и видите и уразумейте о всех местех, идеже той крыется, и возвратитеся ко мне на готово, и иду с вами: и будет, аще есть на земли, изыскати имам его во всех тысящах Иудиных.
Take notice, then, and learn, and I will go with you; and it shall come to pass that if he is in the land, I will search him out amongst all the thousands of Juda.
24 И восташа Зифее, и идоша пред Саулом: Давид же и мужие его бяху в пустыни Маон к западу одесную Иесемона.
And the Ziphites arose, and went before Saul: and David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, westward, to the right of Jessaemon.
25 И иде Саул и мужие его искати Давида. И возвестиша Давиду, и сниде ко каменю иже в пустыни Маон. И услыша Саул, и погна вслед Давида в пустыню Маон.
And Saul and his men went to seek him: and they brought word to David, and he went down to the rock that was in the wilderness of Maon: and Saul heard, and followed after David to the wilderness of Maon.
26 И идяше Саул и мужие его от страны горы отсюду, Давид же бе и мужие его от страны горы отюнуду: и бе Давид укрываяся ити от лица Сауля, а Саул и мужие его ополчишася на Давида и на мужы его яти их.
And Saul and his men go on one side of the mountain, and David and his men are on the other side of the mountain: and David was hiding himself to escape from Saul: and Saul and his men encamped against David and his men, in order to take them.
27 И прииде вестник к Саулу глаголя: потщися и иди, яко нападоша иноплеменницы на землю твою.
And there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste you, and come here, for the Philistines have invaded the land.
28 И возвратися Саул не гнати вслед Давида, и иде противу иноплеменником: сего ради наречеся место оно Камень Разделенный.
So Saul returned from following after David, and went to meet the Philistines: therefore that place was called The divided Rock.
29 И воста Давид оттуду и седе во узинах Енгадди.
And David rose up from thence, and lived in the narrow passes of Engaddi.
