Четвертая книга Царств 21
1 Сын дванадесяти лет Манассиа, егда нача царствовати, и пятьдесят пять лет царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя матере его Офовиа.
Twelve years old was Menasseh when he became king, and fifty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Chephzi-bah.
2 И сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима, и хождаше вслед мерзостей языков, ихже отрину Господь от лица сынов Израилевых:
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, after the abominable acts of the nations whom the Lord had driven out before the children of Israel.
3 и обратися, и созда высокая, иже разори отец его Езекиа, и воздвиже жертвенник Ваалу, и сотвори дубравы, яже сотвори Ахаав царь Израилев, и поклонися всей силе небесней и поработа им:
And he built up again the high-places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Ba'al, and made a grove, as Achab the king of Israel had done; and he bowed down to all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 и созда олтарь в дому Господни, якоже рече Господь: во Иерусалиме положу имя Мое.
And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.
5 И сотвори олтарь всей силе небесней на дву двору дому Господня:
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 и провождаше сыны своя чрез огнь, и вражаше, и волшвения творяше, и сотвори капища, и волшебницы умножи творити лукавое пред очима Господнима, еже прогневати Его:
And he caused his son to pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much that is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
7 и постави изваяное Дубравы в храме, о немже рече Господь к Давиду и к Соломону сыну его: в храме сем и во Иерусалиме, егоже избрах от всех колен Израилевых, и положу ту имя Мое на веки,
And he set a hewn image of the Asherah that he had made in the house, of which the Lord had said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
8 и не приложу подвигнутися нозе Израилеве от земли, юже дах отцем их, аще тии соблюдут вся елика заповедах, по всей заповеди, юже заповеда им раб Мой Моисей.
And I will not cause any more the foot of Israel to move out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to act in accordance with all that I have commanded them, and in accordance with all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.
9 И не послушаша, и прельсти их Манассиа, еже сотворити лукавое пред очима Господнима паче язык, яже истреби Господь от лица сынов Израилевых.
But they hearkened not: and Menasseh seduced them to do what is evil more than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 И глагола Господь рукою рабов Своих пророков, глаголя:
And the Lord spoke by means of his servants the prophets, saying,
11 за сия, елика сотвори Манассиа царь Иудин мерзости сия лукавыя, паче всех яже сотвориша Аморрее, иже прежде сего быша, и введе во грех и Иуду, в кумирех своих:
Forasmuch as Menasseh the king of Judah hath done these abominations, having done wickedly more than all that the Emorites had done, who were before him, and hath induced Judah also to sin with his idols:
12 не тако: сице глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: се, Аз наведу злая на Иерусалим и на Иуду, яко всякому слышащему пошумят обоя уха его,
Therefore thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
13 и простру на Иерусалим меру Самарийскую и весы дому Ахаавля: и истреблю Иерусалима, якоже изглаждается алавастр изглаждаемый и превращается в лице свое:
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the measure-line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Achab: and I will wipe off Jerusalem as one wipeth off a dish, wiping it, and turning it on its face.
14 и изрину останки достояния Моего и предам их в руки врагов их, и будут в расхищение и в плен всем врагом своим:
And I will forsake the remnant of my inheritance, and give them up into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
15 понеже сотвориша лукавое пред очима Моима и быша прогневляюще Мя от дне, в оньже изведох отцы их от земли Египетския, и до дне сего.
Forasmuch as they have done what is evil in my eyes, and have been provoking me to anger, from the day that their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even until this day.
16 Еще же кровь неповинную излия Манассиа многу зело, дондеже наполни Иерусалиму уста до уст, кроме грехов его, имиже во грех введе Иуду, сотворити лукавое пред очима Господнима.
And also innocent blood did Menasseh shed in very great abundance, till he had filled [therewith] Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he induced Judah to sin, to do what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.
17 И прочая словес Манассииных, и вся елика сотвори, и грех его, имже согреши, не сия ли написана в книзе словес дний царей Иудиных?
Now the rest of the acts of Menasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he committed, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
18 И успе Манассиа со отцы своими, и погребен бысть в вертограде дому своего, в вертограде Озы. И воцарися Аммон сын его вместо его:
And Menasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of 'Uzza: and Amon his son became king in his stead.
19 сын двадесяти дву лет бе Аммон, егда нача царствовати и два лета царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Месоллам, дщи Арусова из Иетевы.
Twenty and two years old was Amon when he became king, and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Charuz of Yotbah.
20 И сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима, якоже сотвори Манассиа отец его,
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Menasseh had done.
21 и хождаше по всему пути, имже ходи отец его, и поработа кумиром, имже поработа отец его, и поклонися им:
And he walked in all the way that his father had walked in, and served the idols that his father had served, and bowed himself down to them;
22 и остави Господа Бога отец своих, и не ходи путем Господним.
And he forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
23 И восташа отроцы Аммоновы нань и умертвиша царя в дому его.
And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
24 Людие же земли (тоя) избиша всех воставших на царя Аммона, и воцариша людие земли тоя Иосию сына его вместо его.
And the people of the land slew all those that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
25 И прочая словес Аммоновых, елика сотвори, не се ли, сия написана и в книзе словес дний царей Иудиных?
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
26 И погребоша его во гробе его в вертограде Озине. И воцарися Иосиа сын его вместо его.
And they buried him in his sepulchre in the garden of 'Uzza: and Josiah his son became king in his stead.
