Четвертая книга Царств 13
1 В лето двадесять третие Иоаса сына Охозиина царя Иудина царствова Иоахаз сын Ииуев над Израилем в Самарии седмьнадесять лет,
In the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash son of Ahaziah over Judah, Jehoahaz son of Jehu became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria seventeen years.
2 и сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима, и иде вслед грехов Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже в грех введе Израиля и не остася злобы тоя.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit; he did not turn away from them.
3 И разгневася Господь гневом на Израиля, и вдаде их в руце Азаилу царю Сирску и в руце сына Адера, сына Азаилева, во вся дни.
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He delivered them continually into the hands of Hazael king of Aram and his son Ben-hadad.
4 И помолися Иоахаз лицу Господню, и услыша его Господь, яко виде скорбь Израилеву, понеже оскорби их царь Сирский.
Then Jehoahaz sought the favor of the LORD, and the LORD listened to him because He saw the oppression that the king of Aram had inflicted on Israel.
5 И даде Господь спасение Израилю, и избыша от руку Сирску: и вселишася и сынове Израилевы в селения своя якоже и вчера и третияго дне:
So the LORD gave Israel a deliverer, and they escaped the power of the Arameans. Then the people of Israel lived in their own homes as they had before.
6 обаче не отступиша от грехов дому Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже и в грех введе Израиля, в нем ходяху: и дубрава стояше в Самарии.
Nevertheless, they did not turn away from the sins that the house of Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit, but they continued to walk in them. The Asherah pole even remained standing in Samaria.
7 Яко не осташася Иоахазу людие, но токмо пятьдесят конник, и десять колесниц, и десять тысящ пешцев, яко изгубил их царь Сирский, и положи я яко прах на попрание.
Jehoahaz had no army left, except fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand foot soldiers, because the king of Aram had destroyed them and made them like the dust at threshing.
8 И прочая словес Иоахазовых, и вся елика сотвори, и силы его, не сия ли писана в книзе словес дний царей Израилевых?
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, along with all his accomplishments and his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
9 И успе Иоахаз со отцы своими, и погребоша его в Самарии: и воцарися Иоас сын его вместо его.
And Jehoahaz rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria. And his son Jehoash reigned in his place.
10 В лето тридесять седмое Иоаса царя Иудина царствова Иоас сын Иоахазов над Израилем в Самарии шестьнадесять лет,
In the thirty-seventh year of the reign of Joash over Judah, Jehoash son of Jehoahaz became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned sixteen years.
11 и сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима: и отступи от всех грехов Иеровоама сына Наватова, иже в грех введе Израиля, в том хождаше.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and did not turn away from all the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit, but he walked in them.
12 И прочая словес Иоасовых и вся елика сотвори, и силы его, яже сотвори со Амессием царем Иудиным, не сия ли писана в книзе словес дний царей Израилевых?
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with all his accomplishments and his might, including his war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
13 И успе Иоас со отцы своими, Иеровоам же седе на престоле его: и погребен бысть Иоас в Самарии с царми Израилевыми.
And Jehoash rested with his fathers, and Jeroboam succeeded him on the throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 И Елиссей разболеся болезнию своею, от неяже умре. И прииде к нему Иоас царь Израилев, и плакася над лицем его, и рече: отче, отче, колесница Израилева и кони его.
When Elisha had fallen sick with the illness from which he would die, Jehoash king of Israel came down to him and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and horsemen of Israel!”
15 И рече ему Елиссей возми лук и стрелы. И взя к себе лук и стрелы.
Elisha told him, “Take a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash took a bow and some arrows.
16 И рече царю: возложи руку свою на лук. И возложи Иоас руку свою на лук, и Елиссей возложи руки своя на руки царевы,
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Put your hand on the bow.” So the king put his hand on the bow, and Elisha put his hands on the king’s hands.
17 и рече: отверзи окно еже на восток. И отверзе. И рече Елиссей: стрели. И стрели (царь). И рече Елиссей: стрела спасения Господня и стрела спасения на Сирию, и победиши Сирию во Афеке даже до скончания.
“Open the east window,” said Elisha. So he opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he shot. And Elisha declared: “This is the LORD’s arrow of victory, the arrow of victory over Aram, for you shall strike the Arameans in Aphek until you have put an end to them.”
18 И рече ему Елиссей: возми лук. И взя. И рече царю Израилеву: удари на землю. И удари царь трижды, и ста.
Then Elisha said, “Take the arrows!” So he took them, and Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground!” So he struck the ground three times and stopped.
19 И оскорбе человек Божий о нем и рече: аще бы ударил еси пятищи или шестищи, тогда бы еси поразил Сирию до скончания, ныне же победиши Сирию трижды.
But the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck the ground five or six times. Then you would have struck down Aram until you had put an end to it. But now you will strike down Aram only three times.”
20 И умре Елиссей, и погребоша его. Воини же Моавли приидоша в землю наставающу лету тому.
And Elisha died and was buried. Now the Moabite raiders used to come into the land every spring.
21 И бысть им погребающим мужа, и се, видеша воинов, и повергоша мужа во гробе Елиссеове: (и впаде тело человека мертва, ) и прикоснуся костем Елиссеовым, и оживе и воста на ноги своя.
Once, as the Israelites were burying a man, suddenly they saw a band of raiders, so they threw the man’s body into Elisha’s tomb. And as soon as his body touched the bones of Elisha, the man was revived and stood up on his feet.
22 Азаил же оскорбляше Израиля во вся дни Иоахазовы.
And Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel throughout the reign of Jehoahaz.
23 И помилова и Господь, и ущедри я, и призре на ня завета ради Своего, иже со Авраамом и Исааком и Иаковом, и не восхоте Господь потребити их, ниже отверже их от лица Своего.
But the LORD was gracious to Israel and had compassion on them, and He turned toward them because of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And to this day, the LORD has been unwilling to destroy them or cast them from His presence.
24 И умре Азаил царь Сирский, и воцарися Адер сын его вместо его.
When Hazael king of Aram died, his son Ben-hadad reigned in his place.
25 И возвратися Иоас сын Иоахазов, и взя грады от руки Адера сына Азаилева, ихже взя от руку Иоахаза отца его в брани: трижды победи его Иоас, и возврати грады Израилевы.
Then Jehoash son of Jehoahaz took back from Ben-hadad son of Hazael the cities that Hazael had taken in battle from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recovered the cities of Israel.
