< Четвертая книга Царств 11 >
1 И Гофолиа мати Охозиина виде, яко умре сын ея, и воста и погуби все семя царево.
And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she rose up and destroyed all the royal seed.
2 Иосавееф же дщи царя Иорама, сестра Охозиина, поя Иоаса сына брата своего, и украде его от среды сынов царевых избиеных, того и доилицу его в клети постельней, и утаи его от лица Гофолиина, и не умертвиша его:
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, [and hid] him and his nurse in the bedchamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3 и бе с нею крыемь в дому Господни шесть лет: и Гофолиа бе царствующи в земли той.
And he was with her hid in the house of Jehovah six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 И в седмое лето посла Иодай жрец, и поят стоначалники хорримски и расимски, и возведе я к себе в дом Господень, и завеща им завет Господень, и закля их пред Господем: и показа им Иодай сына царска,
And in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains of the hundreds, of the bodyguard and the couriers, and brought them to him into the house of Jehovah, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of Jehovah, and shewed them the king's son.
5 и заповеда им, глаголя: сие слово, еже сотворите: третия часть от вас да снидет в субботу, и да стрежете стражбу дому царева во вратех,
And he commanded them saying, This is the thing which ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king's house;
6 и третия часть у дверий Пути, и третия часть у врат созади протекаюшнх, и да устрежете стражбу дому:
and a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the couriers; and ye shall keep the watch of the house for a defence.
7 и две части в вас, всяк исходяй в субботу, и да хранят стражбу дому Господня при цари:
And the two parts of you, all those that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of Jehovah about the king.
8 и обступите царя около, кийждо оружие свое имый в руце своей, и входяй в садироф и да умрет: и будите с царем, егда входити ему и исходити.
And ye shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that comes within the ranks shall be put to death; and ye shall be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in.
9 И сотвориша стоначалницы вся, елика заповеда Иодай смысленый: и поя кийждо мужы своя, и входящыя в субботу со исходяшими в субботу, и внидоша ко Иодаю жерцу.
And the captains of the hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go forth on the sabbath, and they came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 И даде жрец сотником копия и щиты царя Давида, яже быша в дому Господни:
And the priest gave to the captains of the hundreds king David's spears and shields which were in the house of Jehovah.
11 и быша в руках воевод и предтекущих, и сотвориша сотницы и предходящии по всему, елико заповеда им жрец. И собра жрец Господень вся люди земли в дом Господень: и сташа предтекущии, кийждо их оружие имый в руце своей, от страны дому десныя, даже да страны дому шуия жертвенныя, и дому царева около:
And the couriers stood by the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, toward the altar and the house.
12 и изведе сына царева, и возложи на него венец (царский) и свидение, и воцари его, и помаза его. И восплескаша руками и реша: да живет царь.
And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, Long live the king!
13 И услыша Гофолиа глас предтекущих людий, и вниде к народу в дом Господень,
And Athaliah heard the noise of the couriers [and] of the people; and she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.
14 и виде, и се, царь стояше на столпе по обычаю: и бяху пред царем певцы и трубы, и вси людие земли радующеся и трубяще в трубы. И раздра Гофолиа ризы своя и возопи: измена, измена.
And she looked, and behold, the king stood on the dais, according to the custom, and the princes and the trumpeters were by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets. And Athaliah rent her garments and cried, Conspiracy! Conspiracy!
15 И заповеда Иодай жрец стоначалником и властелем силы, и рече к ним: изведите ю вон из полков, и входяй вслед ея смертию да умрет от оружия: понеже рече жрец, да не умрет в дому Господни.
And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Lead her forth without the ranks; and whosoever follows her, slay with the sword; for the priest said, Let her not be put to death in the house of Jehovah.
16 И возложиша на ню руце, и изведоша ю скопцы путем исхода коней дому царева, и умре ту.
And they made way for her, and she went by the way by which the horses entered the king's house, and there was she put to death.
17 И завеща Иодай завет между Господем и между царем и между людьми, яко быти им в люди Господни: и между царем и между людьми.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between Jehovah and the king and the people, that they should be the people of Jehovah; and between the king and the people.
18 И внидоша вси людие земли в дом Ваалов и разбиша его, и жертвенники его и образы его сокрушиша добре, и Мафана жерца Ваалова убиша пред лицем жертвенников. И постави жрец властели в дому Господни,
Then all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and broke it down: his altars and his images they broke in pieces completely, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of Jehovah.
19 и взя стоначалники, и хоррима и расима, и вся люди земли, и изведе царя от дому Господня: и внидоша путем врат предтекущих дому царева, и посадиша его на престоле цареве.
And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the bodyguard, and the couriers, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of Jehovah, and came by the way through the gate of the couriers into the king's house. And he sat upon the throne of the kings.
20 И возрадовашася вси людие земли, и град умолче: и Гофолию умертвиша мечем в дому цареве.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they had slain Athaliah with the sword [beside] the king's house.
21 Сын седми лет Иоас егда нача царствовати.
Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
