Вторая книга Паралипоменон 11
1 Прииде же Ровоам во Иерусалим, и созва (весь) дом Иудин и Вениаминь, сто осмьдесят тысящ избранных юношей творящих брань, и воеваше противу Израиля и Иеровоама, да обратит к себе царство.
And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
2 И бысть слово Господне к Самею человеку Божию, глаголя:
But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 глаголи к Ровоаму сыну Соломоню, царю Иудину, и ко всему Израилю, иже есть во Иуде и Вениамине:
Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 сия рече Господь: не восходите, ниже ополчайтеся противу братии вашея: возвратитеся кийждо в дом свой, зане от Мене бысть глаголгол сей. И послушаша слова Господня, и возвратишася, и не поидоша противу Иеровоама.
Thus says the LORD, You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 Обита же Ровоам во Иерусалиме и созда грады стенаты во Иудеи:
And Rehoboam dwelled in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
6 сострои же Вифлеем и Етам, и Фекуе
He built even Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
7 и Вефсур, и Сокхоф и Одоллам,
And Bethzur, and Shoco, and Adullam,
8 и Геф и Марисан, и Зиф
And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9 и Адурем, и Лахис и Азику,
And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10 и Салаю и Елон и Хеврон, иже есть Иудин и Вениаминь, грады крепкия:
And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities.
11 и укрепи их стенами, и постави в них началники, житохранилища, и елей и вино,
And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and of oil and wine.
12 во всяцем граде щиты и копия, и укрепи их во множестве зело, и быста под ним Иуда и Вениамин.
And in every several city he put shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.
13 Священницы же и левиты, иже бяху во всем Израили, собрашася к нему от всех предел:
And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their coasts.
14 яко оставиша левити селения одержания своего и поидоша ко Иуде во Иерусалим, понеже изгна их Иеровоам и сынове его, еже не служити Господеви:
For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest’s office to the LORD:
15 и постави себе жерцы на высоких, и идолом, и суетным, и телцем, ихже сотвори Иеровоам.
And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
16 И изгна их от всех колен Израилевых, иже вдаша сердце свое, да взыщут Господа Бога Израилева: и приидоша во Иерусалим пожрети Господу Богу отец своих:
And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to the LORD God of their fathers.
17 и укрепиша царство Иудино. И укрепися Ровоам сын Соломонь в три лета, хождаше бо по путем Давида и Соломона отца своего лета три.
So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years: for three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
18 И взя себе Ровоам жену Моолафу, дщерь Иеримофа сына Давидова, и Авигею дщерь Елиава сына Иессеова.
And Rehoboam took him Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David to wife, and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
19 И роди ему сыны: Иеуса и Самориа и Заама.
Which bore him children; Jeush, and Shamariah, and Zaham.
20 По сих же поя себе Мааху дщерь Авессаломлю, и роди ему Авию и Иеффиа, и Зизу и Салимофа.
And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; which bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
21 И возлюби Ровоам Мааху дщерь Авессаломлю паче всех жен своих и подложниц своих, яко жен осмьнадесять име и подложниц шестьдесят: и роди двадесять осмь сынов и шестьдесят дщерей.
And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and three score concubines; and begat twenty and eight sons, and three score daughters.)
22 И постави в началника Ровоам Авию сына Маахина и князем над всею братиею его, того бо и царем сотворити помышляше.
And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, to be ruler among his brothers: for he thought to make him king.
23 И возрасте паче всех братий своих во всех пределех Иудиных и Вениаминих и во градех крепких, и даде им пищи множество много, и многих взыска жен.
And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his children throughout all the countries of Judah and Benjamin, to every fenced city: and he gave them victual in abundance. And he desired many wives.
