< Четвертая книга Царств 10 >
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 Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, to the elders, and to them that brought up Ahab’s children, 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 as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master’s sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armour;
3 и узрите благаго и праваго в сынех господина вашего, и поставите его на престоле отца его, и да воюете о доме господина вашего.
Choose the best and most fit of your master’s sons, and set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.
4 И убояшася зело и реша: се, два царя не возмогоста стати противу лицу его, и како мы станем?
But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: how then 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.
And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up the children, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king: do thou that which is good in thy 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.
Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye are mine, and if ye will hearken to my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to morrow this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who 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 slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
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 there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance 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 it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew 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.
Know now that there shall fall to the earth nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab: for the LORD hath done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.
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.
So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his kinsmen, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.
12 И воста и иде в Самарию сам, в Вефакад пастырский при пути.
And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing house 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.
Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to greet the children of the king and the children 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 took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any 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 when he had departed from there, he came upon Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he greeted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it is, give me thy 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, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. So they made him ride 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 when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained to Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spoke to Elijah.
18 И собра Ииуй вся люди и рече к ним: Ахаав поработа Ваалу мало, Ииуй же поработает ему много:
And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu 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 therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be missing: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whoever shall be missing, he shall not live. But Jehu did it deceitfully, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
20 И рече Ииуй: освятите жертву Ваалу и служение. И проповедаша.
And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
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 Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.
22 И рече Ииуй к сущым над домом одежд: изнесите одежды всем рабом Вааловым. И изнесе им ризохранитель.
And he said to him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.
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 Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, and said to the worshippers of Baal, Search, and see that there are here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but the worshippers of Baal only.
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 when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed eighty men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
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, as soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
26 и изнесоша кумир Ваалов и сожгоша его:
And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.
27 и разбиша кумиры Вааловы, и низвергоша дом Ваалов, и определиша его на афедрон даже до дне сего.
And they broke down the image of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a place of refuse to this day.
28 И погуби Ииуй храм Ваалов от Израиля.
Thus Jehu destroyed 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.
Yet from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, that is, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were 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 Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and hast done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on 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 Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from 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 off parts of Israel: and Hazael smote them in all the land 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 Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
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?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not 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 Jehu slept with his fathers: and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
36 И дний бяше, в няже Ииуй царствова над Израилем в Самарии, двадесять осмь лет.
And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.
