< Первая книга Царств 28 >
1 И бысть во дни оны, и собрашася иноплеменницы в полки своя изыти братися со Израилтяны. И рече Агхус к Давиду: разумея разумей, яко со мною изыдеши на брань ты и мужие твои.
And it came to pass, in those days, when the Philistines gathered together their hosts for war, to fight with Israel, that Achish said unto David, Thou must, know, that, with me, shalt thou go forth in the host, thou and thy men.
2 И рече Давид ко Агхусу: тако ныне уразумееши, яже сотворит раб твой. И рече Агхус к Давиду: темже началника хранителей телу (моему) поставлю тя во вся дни.
And David said unto Achish, Therefore, now, shalt thou know what thy servant can do. And Achish said unto David, Therefore, keeper of my head, will I appoint thee, all the days.
3 И Самуил умре, и рыдаше по нем весь Израиль, и погребоша его во Армафеме во граде его: и Саул изби чревобасники и волхвы земли своея.
Now, Samuel, was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city, —Saul, moreover had put away them who had familiar spirits and them who were oracles, out of the land.
4 И собрашася иноплеменницы и приидоша и ополчишася в Сонаме: и собра Саул вся мужы Израилевы, и ополчишася в Гелвуе.
So then the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came in, and encamped in Shunem, —and Saul gathered together all Israel, and they encamped in Gilboa.
5 И виде Саул полки иноплеменничи, и убояся, и ужасеся сердце его зело.
And, when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled exceedingly.
6 И вопроси Саул Господа, и не отвеща ему Господь ни во сне, ни во явлениих, ни во пророцех.
Then Saul enquired of Yahweh, but Yahweh answered him not, —neither by Dreams, nor by the Lights, nor by prophets.
7 И рече Саул отроком своим: поищите ми жены волшебницы, и пойду к ней, и вопрошу ея. И реша отроцы его к нему: се, жена волшебница во Аендоре.
Then said Saul unto his servants—Seek me out a woman that owneth a familiar spirit, that I may even go unto her, and enquire of her. And his servants said unto him, Lo! there is a woman that owneth a familiar spirit in En-dor.
8 И прикрыся Саул и облечеся в ризы ины, и иде сам и два мужа с ним, и прииде нощию к жене и рече ей: поволхвуй ми чревоволшебством, и возведи ми, егоже реку ти.
Saul therefore disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and departed—he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night, —and he said—Divine for me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring up for me—whomsoever I shall name unto thee.
9 И рече ему жена: се, ныне ты сам веси, елика сотвори Саул, како истреби чревобасники и волхвы от земли, и вскую ты ловиши душу мою, еже умертвити ю?
And the woman said unto him—Lo! thou, knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off them who have familiar spirits and him who is an oracle, out of the land, —wherefore, then, art thou striking at my life, to put me to death?
10 И клятся ей Саул, глаголя: жив Господь, аще срящет тя неправда о словеси сем.
So then Saul sware unto her by Yahweh, saying, —By the life of Yahweh, there shall no punishment befall thee for this thing.
11 И рече жена Саулу: кого возведу ти? И рече Саул: Самуила возведи ми.
Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up for thee? And he said, Samuel, bring thou up for me.
12 И виде жена Самуила, и возгласи гласом велиим, и рече жена к Саулу: почто мя прельстил еси? И ты еси Саул.
And, when the woman saw Samuel, she made outcry with a loud voice, —and the woman spake unto Saul, saying—Wherefore hast thou deceived me, thou thyself being Saul?
13 И рече ей царь: не бойся, рцы кого видела еси? И рече ему жена: боги видех восходящыя от земли.
And the king said unto her—Be not afraid, but what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, A god, saw I, coming up out of the earth.
14 И рече ей: что познала еси? И рече ему (жена): (видех) мужа стара восходяща от земли, и сей оболчен одеянием долгим. И уразуме Саул, яко сей Самуил (есть), и преклони лице свое на землю и поклонися ему.
And he said to her—What was his form? And she said—An old man, coming up, he being wrapped about with a robe. Then Saul knew, that it was, Samuel, so he inclined his face to the earth, and bowed himself down.
15 И рече ему Самуил: почто понудил еси мя взыти ми? И рече Саул: скорблю зело, яко иноплеменницы воюют на мя, и Бог отступи от мене, и не услыша мене ктому ни в руках пророческих, ни во снех, ни во явлениих: и ныне призвах тя, да скажеши ми, что сотворю.
And Samuel said unto Saul, Wherefore hast thou disquieted me, by bringing me up? And Saul said—I am in sore distress, for, the Philistines, are making war against me, and, God, hath turned away from me, and answereth me no more—either by means of the prophets, or by dreams, therefore have I even called for thee, to let me know, what I am to do.
16 И рече Самуил: почто вопрошаеши мя, а Господь отступи от тебе и бысть со ближним твоим?
Then said Samuel, Wherefore, then, shouldst thou ask me, —when, Yahweh, hath turned away from thee, and hath come to be with thy neighbour?
17 И сотвори Господь тебе, якоже глагола Господь рукою моею, и исторгнет Господь царство твое из руку твоею и вдаст е ближнему твоему Давиду,
Therefore hath Yahweh done for him, as he spake by me, —yea Yahweh hath rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to a neighbour of thine—to David.
18 понеже не послушал еси гласа Господня и не исполнил еси гнева ярости Его на Амалике, глагола ради того сотвори тебе Господь в день сей:
As thou didst not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh, neither didst execute the glow of his anger upon Amalek, therefore, this thing, hath Yahweh done unto thee this day;
19 и предаст Господь Израиля с тобою в руки иноплеменничи, и заутра ты и сынове твои падут с тобою, и полк Израилев предаст Господь в руки иноплеменничи.
that Yahweh may deliver, Israel also, with thee, into the hand of the Philistines, and, to-morrow, thou and thy sons with thee are about to fall, —the host of Israel also, will Yahweh deliver, into the hand of the Philistines.
20 И потщася Саул, и паде стоящь на землю, и убояся зело от словес Самуиловых, и не бысть ктому крепости в нем: яко не яде хлеба во весь день той и во всю нощь ту.
Then Saul hastened, and fell prostrate—the whole length of him—to the earth, and was sore afraid, at the words of Samuel, and indeed, no, strength, was left in him, for he had not eaten food all the day and all the night.
21 И вниде жена к Саулу, и виде его, яко смятеся зело, и рече к нему: се, ныне послуша раба твоя гласа твоего, и положих душу мою в руце мои, и послушах словес, яже ми глаголал еси:
And the woman came unto Saul, and, when she saw that he was greatly terrified, she said unto him—Lo! thy handmaid hearkened unto thy voice, and I put my life into my hand, and heard thy words which thou didst speak unto me.
22 и ныне послушай гласа рабы твоея, и положу пред тобою укрух хлеба, и яждь, и будет в тебе крепость, яко идеши в путь.
Now, therefore, I pray thee, hearken, thou also, unto the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of food, and eat thou, —that there may be in thee strength, when thou goest on thy journey.
23 И не хотяше ясти: и понудиша его отроцы его и жена, и послуша гласа их, и воста от земли, и седе на седалищи.
But he refused, and said—I will not eat. But, when his servants, and the woman also, strongly urged him, then hearkened he unto their voice, —and rose up from the earth, and sat on the bed.
24 Жене же бяше юница питомая в дому: и потщася, и закла ю: и взя муку и смеси, и испече опресноки,
Now, the woman, had a calf fattening, in the shed. So she hastened, and sacrificed it, —and took meal, and kneaded, and baked thereof, unleavened cakes;
25 и принесе пред Саула и пред отроки его: и ядоша, и восташа и отидоша в нощь ону.
and brought near before Saul and before his servants, and they did eat. Then rose they up and departed, the same night.
