1 И Ахааву беша седмьдесят сынове во Самарии. И написа писание Ииуй и посла в Самарию ко князем Самарийским и к старейшинам и ко кормителем сынов Ахаавлих, глаголя:
And Achaab [had] seventy sons in Samaria. And Ju wrote a letter, and sent it into Samaria to the rulers of Samaria, and to the elders, and to the guardians of [the children of] Achaab, saying.
2 и ныне егда приидет писание сие к вам, и с вами сынове господина вашего, и с вами колесницы и кони, и грады тверды и оружия:
Now then, as soon as this letter shall have reached you, whereas [there are] with you the sons of your master, and with you chariots and horses, and strong cities, and arms,
3 и узрите благаго и праваго в сынех господина вашего, и поставите его на престоле отца его, и да воюете о доме господина вашего.
do you accordingly look out the best and fit among your master's sons, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your master.
4 И убояшася зело и реша: се, два царя не возмогоста стати противу лицу его, и како мы станем?
And they feared greatly, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: and how shall we stand?
5 И послаша иже над домом и иже над градом, и старейшины, и кормителе ко Ииую, глаголголюще: отроцы мы твои, и елика аще речеши к нам, сотворим: не воцарим мужа, благое пред очима твоима сотворим.
So they that were over the house, and they that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians, sent to Ju, saying, We also [are] your servants, and whatever you shall say to us we will do; we will not make [any] man king: we will do that which is right in your eyes.
6 И написа к ним Ииуй писание второе, глаголя: аще вы мои и гласа моего вы послушаете, возмите главы мужей сынов господина вашего и принесите ко мне, якоже час утро, во Иезраель. И бе сынов царевых седмьдесят мужей, сии началницы града вскормиша их.
And Ju wrote them a second letter, saying, If you [are] for me, and listen to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and bring [them] to me at this time to-morrow in Jezrael. Now the sons of the king were seventy men; these great men of the city brought them up.
7 И бысть егда прииде к ним писание, и взяша сыны царевы и заклаша их седмьдесят мужей, и возложиша главы их в кошницы и послаша их к нему во Иезраель.
And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and killed them, [even] seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezrael.
8 И прииде вестник, и возвести ему, глаголя: принесоша главы сынов царевых. И рече: положите я в два холма при вратех града до заутра.
And a messenger came and told [him], saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them [in] two heaps by the door of the gate until the morning.
9 И бысть заутра, и изыде и ста во вратех града, и рече ко всем людем: праведни вы: се, аз есмь, обратихся на господина моего и убих его: и кто порази всех сих?
And the morning came, and he went forth, and stood, and said to all the people, You are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and killed him: but who killed all these?
10 Видите убо, яко не падет от глагола Господня на землю, егоже глагола Господь на дом Ахаавль: и Господь сотвори, елика глагола рукою раба Своего Илии.
See now that there shall not fall to the ground anything of the word of the Lord which the Lord spoke against the house of Achaab: for the Lord has performed all that he spoke of by the hand of his servant Eliu.
11 И изби Ииуй всех оставшихся в дому Ахаавли во Иезраели, и вся вельможы его, и знаемыя его, и жерцы его, яко не остатися его останку.
And Ju struck all that were left of the house of Achaab in Jezrael, and all his great men, and his acquaintance, and his priests, so as not to leave him [any] remnant.
12 И воста и иде в Самарию сам, в Вефакад пастырский при пути.
And he arose and went to Samaria, [and] he [was] in the house of sheep-shearing in the way.
13 И Ииуй обрете братию Охозии царя Иудина и рече: кто вы? И реша: братия Охозиины мы, и снидохом поздравити сыны царевы и сыны обладающия.
And Ju found the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and said, Who [are] you? And they said, We [are] the brethren of Ochozias, and we have come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.
14 И рече: поимите я живы. И взяша их живых, и заклаша их в Вефакаде, четыредесять два мужа: и не остави мужа от них.
And he said, Take them alive. And they killed them at the shearing-house, forty and two men: he left not a man of them.
15 И иде оттуду, и обрете Ионадава сына Рихавля на пути во сретение себе, и благослови его. И рече к нему Ииуй: аще есть сердце твое с сердцем моим право, якоже сердце мое с сердцем твоим? И рече Ионадав: есть. И рече Ииуй: и аще есть, даждь руку твою. И даде руку свою. И возведе его к себе на колесницу
And he went thence and found Jonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him; and he saluted him, and Ju said to him, Is your heart right with my heart, as my heart [is] with your heart? And Jonadab said, It is. And Ju said, If it is then, give me your hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.
16 и рече к нему: гряди со мною и виждь, внегда ревновати мне по Господе саваофе. И посади его на колесницу свою.
And he said to him, Come with me, and see me zealous for the Lord. And he caused him to sit in his chariot.
17 И вниде в Самарию, и изби всех оставшихся Ахаавлих в Самарии, дондеже истребити ему по глаголу Господню, егоже глагола ко Илии.
And he entered into Samaria, and struck all that were left of Achaab in Samaria, until he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Eliu.
18 И собра Ииуй вся люди и рече к ним: Ахаав поработа Ваалу мало, Ииуй же поработает ему много:
And Ju gathered all the people, and said to them, Achaab served Baal a little; Ju shall serve him much.
19 и ныне вся пророки Вааловы, вся рабы его и жерцы его призовите ко мне, муж да не потаится, яко жертва велика Ваалу: и всяк иже потаится, не будет жив. И Ииуй сотвори лестию, да погубит рабы Вааловы.
Now then do all [you] the prophets of Baal call all his servants and his priests to me; let not a man be lacking: for I have a great sacrifice [to offer] to Baal; every one who shall be missing shall die. But Ju did it in subtilty, that he might destroy the servants of Baal.
20 И рече Ииуй: освятите жертву Ваалу и служение. И проповедаша.
And Ju said, Sanctify a solemn festival to Baal, and they made a proclamation.
21 И посла Ииуй во весь Израиль и рече, глаголя: и ныне вси раби Вааловы, и вси жерцы его, и вси пророцы его, да никтоже останется, яко жертву велику творю: иже останется, не будет жив и приидоша вси раби Вааловы, и вси жерцы его, и вси пророцы его: не остася муж, иже не прииде: и внидоша во храм Ваалов, и наполнися храм Ваалов от края да края.
And Ju sent throughout all Israel, saying, Now then let all [Baal's] servants, and all his priests, and all his prophets [come], let none be lacking: for I am going to offer a great sacrifice; whoever shall be missing, shall not live. So all the servants of Baal came, and all his priests, and all his prophets: there was not one left who came not. And they entered into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other.
22 И рече Ииуй к сущым над домом одежд: изнесите одежды всем рабом Вааловым. И изнесе им ризохранитель.
And he said to the man who was over the house of the wardrobe, Bring forth a robe for all the servants of Baal. And the keeper of the robes brought forth to them.
23 И вниде Ииуй и Ионадав сын Рихавль в храмину Ваалову и рече рабом Вааловым: испытайте и видите, аще есть с вами от рабов Господних, и вышлите всех рабов Господних обретшихся тамо. И бысть якоже глагола Ииуй, яко не бе от рабов Господних, но токмо едини раби Вааловы.
And Ju and Jonadab the son of Rechab entered into the house of Baal, and said to the servants of Baal, Search, and see whether there is among you any of the servants of the Lord, or only the servants of Baal, by themselves.
24 И вниде сотворити жертвы и всесожжения и Ииуй постави себе вне осмьдесят мужей и рече: муж иже аще угонзет от мужей, ихже аз извожду в руки вашя, душа его вместо души его.
And he went in to offer sacrifices and whole burnt offerings; and Ju set for himself eighty men without, and said, Every man who shall escape of the men whom I bring into your hand, the life of him [that spares him] shall go for his life.
25 И бысть егда сконча творяй всесожжения, и рече Ииуй предтекущым и тристатом: вшедше избийте их, да не изыдет от них муж. И избиша их острием меча и повергоша предтекущии и тристаты, и идоша даже до града храма Ваалова:
And it came to pass, when he had finished offering the whole burnt offering, that Ju said to the footmen and to the officers, Go you in and kill them; let not a man of them escape. So they struck them with the edge of the sword, and the footmen and the officers cast [the bodies] forth, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
26 и изнесоша кумир Ваалов и сожгоша его:
And they brought out the pillar of Baal, and burnt it.
27 и разбиша кумиры Вааловы, и низвергоша дом Ваалов, и определиша его на афедрон даже до дне сего.
And they tore down the pillars of Baal, and made his house a draught-house until this day.
28 И погуби Ииуй храм Ваалов от Израиля.
So Ju abolished Baal out of Israel.
29 Обаче от грехов Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже введе в грех Израиля, не отступи Ииуй от последования их: юницы златыя, яже в Вефили и в Дане.
Nevertheless Ju departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: [these were] the golden heifers in Baethel and in Dan.
30 И рече Господь ко Ииую: за сия, елика ублажил еси сотворити правое пред очима Моима, и вся елика по сердцу Моему сотворил еси дому Ахаавлю, сынове твои до четвертаго рода сядут на престоле во Израили.
And the Lord said to Ju, Because of all your deeds wherein you have acted well in doing that which was right in my eyes, according to all things which you have done to the house of Achaab [as they were] in my heart, your sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel.
31 И Ииуй не сохрани ходити в законе Господни всем сердцем своим: не отступи от грехов Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже в грех введе Израиля.
But Ju took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: he departed not from following the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
32 Во дни оны нача Господь посецати во Израили: и порази их Азаил во всех пределех Израилевых,
In those days the Lord began to cut Israel short; and Azael struck them in every coast of Israel;
33 от Иордана на восток солнца, всю землю Галаадску и Гаддииску, и Рувимову и Манассиину, от Ароира, иже есть при устии потока Арнонска, и Галаад и Васан.
from Jordan eastward all the land of Galaad belonging to the Gadites, of Gaddi and that of Ruben, and of Manasses, from Aroer, which is on the brink of the brook of Arnon, and Galaad and Basan.
34 И прочая словес Ииуевых, и вся яже сотвори, и вся сила его, и совещания, яже совеща, не се ли, сия написана в книзе словес дний царей Израилевых?
And the rest of the acts of Ju, and all that he did, and all his might, and the wars wherein he engaged, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
35 И успе Ииуй со отцы своими, и погребоша его в Самарии. И воцарися Иоахаз сын его вместо его.
And Ju slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joachaz his son reigned in his stead.
36 И дний бяше, в няже Ииуй царствова над Израилем в Самарии, двадесять осмь лет.
And the days which Ju reigned over Israel [were] twenty-eight years in Samaria.
