Четвертая книга Царств 4

1 И жена едина от сынов пророчих возопи ко Елиссею, глаголющи: раб твой муж мой умре, ты же веси, яко раб твой бе бояся Господа: и заимодавец прииде взяти два сына моя себе в рабы.

Now a wife from among the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared YHWH, but the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be his slaves."

2 И рече Елиссей: что сотворю ти? Повеждь ми, что имаши ныне в дому? Она же рече: несть у рабы твоея ничтоже в дому, токмо мало елеа, имже помажуся.

Then Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house, except a small jar of oil."

3 И рече к ней: иди, испроси себе сосуды отвне от всех сосед твоих, сосуды праздны, не умали:

Then he said, "Go, ask for containers from outside, from all your neighbors, empty containers.

4 и вниди, и затвори дверь за собою и за сынома твоима, и влиеши (от елеа твоего) во вся сосуды сия, и наполненное возмеши.

Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these containers, and you are to set each one aside when it is full."

5 И отиде от него и сотвори тако, и затвори дверь за собою и за сынома своима: та приношаста к ней, она же вливаше:

So she left him and shut the door behind herself and her sons; they kept bringing her containers, and she kept pouring.

6 и бысть егда наполнишася вси сосуды, и рече сынома своима: приближита ми еще сосуд. И реста ей: несть еще сосуда. И ста елей.

Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, "Bring me another container." But he said to her, "There aren't any more." Then the oil stopped flowing.

7 И прииде и возвести человеку Божию. И рече Елиссей: иди и продаждь сей елей, и заплати лихву твою, и ты и сына твоя жити будете от оставшаго елеа.

Then she came and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons can live on the rest."

8 И бысть во един день, и прейде Елиссей в Соман, и ту жена велия и удержа его снести хлеба: и бысть ему входити и исходити множицею, и уклоняшеся тамо ясти хлеба.

Now it happened one day that Elisha traveled to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman, who urged him to eat some food. so whenever he passed by, he would stop in there to eat some food.

9 И рече жена к мужу своему: се, ныне разумех, яко человек Божий свят сей мимо ходит нас присно:

And she said to her husband, "Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God who often passes by us.

10 сотворим убо ему горницу, место мало, и поставим ему тамо одр и трапезу, и престол и свещник: и будет внегда входити ему к нам, и уклоняется тамо.

Please, let's make a little room on the wall, and let's set up a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him there, so that whenever he comes to us, he can stay there."

11 И бысть во един день, и вниде тамо, и уклонися в горницу, и спа тамо.

Now it happened one day he came there, and he turned into the upper room and rested.

12 И рече ко Гиезию отрочищу своему: призови ми Соманитяныню сию. И призва ю, и ста пред ним.

And he said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite." So he called for her and she stood before him.

13 И рече ему: рцы убо ей: се, удивила еси нас всем попечением сим: что подобает сотворити тебе? Аще есть тебе слово к царю или ко князю силы? Она же рече: (несть, ) посреде людий моих аз есмь живущи.

And he said to him, "Say now to her, 'Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you to the king, or to the commander of the army?'" She answered, "I have a home among my own people."

14 И рече ко Гиезию: что подобает сотворити ей? И рече Гиезий отрочищь его: воистинну сына несть у нея и муж ея стар.

So he said, "What then can I do for her?" And Gehazi replied, "Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old."

15 И рече призови ю. И призва ю, и ста при дверех.

Then he said, "Call her." And when he had called her, she stood in the doorway.

16 И рече Елиссей к ней: во время сие, якоже час сей живущи, ты зачнеши сына. Она же рече: ни, господине, не солжи рабе твоей.

And he said, "At this season, when the time comes around, you will be holding a son." And she said, "No, my lord, man of God, do not lie to your servant."

17 И зачат во чреве жена, и роди сына во время сие, якоже час сей живущи, якоже глагола к ней Елиссей.

But the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, just as Elisha had said to her.

18 И возмужа отрочищь. И бысть, егда изыде ко отцу своему, к жнущым,

And the child grew and it happened one day that he went out to his father to the harvest workers.

19 и рече ко отцу своему: глава моя, глава моя (болит). И рече ко отроку: неси его к матери его.

And he said to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to his servant, "Carry him to his mother."

20 И несе его к матери его, и лежаше на колену ея до полудне, и умре.

And when he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her lap until noon, and died.

21 И вознесе его, и положи его на одре человека Божия: и затвори его, и изыде, и призва мужа своего, и рече ему:

Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God and shut the door behind him and left.

22 посли ми убо единаго от отрок, и едино от ослят, и теку до человека Божия, и возвращуся.

Then she called to her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and then return."

23 И рече: что яко ты идеши к нему днесь? Не нов месяц, ниже суббота. Она же рече: мир.

But he said, "Why would you want to see him today? It is not the new moon or Sabbath." And she said, "It's alright."

24 И оседла осля, и рече ко отрочищу своему: веди, и иди, да не удержиши мене, еже всести, якоже реку тебе: гряди, и иди, и прииди к человеку Божию на гору Кармилскую.

Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, "Lead on; do not slow down for me unless I tell you."

25 И иде, и прииде до человека Божия в гору Кармилскую. И бысть яко виде ю Елиссей грядущую, и рече ко Гиезию отрочищу своему: се, убо Соманитяныня оная:

So she went and came to the man of God at Mount Carmel. So it happened when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Look, there is the Shunammite.

26 ныне тецы во сретение ея и речеши ей: мир ли тебе? И тече во сретение ей и рече ей: мир ли тебе? Мир ли мужу твоему, мир ли отрочищу твоему? Она же рече: мир.

Please run now to meet her and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?'" And she answered, "It is well."

27 И прииде ко Елиссею на гору, и ятся за нозе его. И приближнся Гиезий отринути ю. И рече Елиссей: остави ю, яко душа ея болезненна в ней, и Господь укры от мене и не возвести мне.

But when she came to the man of God to the mountain, she grabbed hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to push her away, but the man of God said, "Leave her alone, for she is in severe anguish, and YHWH has hidden it from me and has not told me."

28 Она же рече: еда просих сына у господина моего, яко рекох: не прельсти мене?

Then she said, "Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say, 'Do not mislead me?'"

29 И рече Елиссей ко Гиезию: препояши чресла твоя и возми жезл мой в руце твои, и иди, яко аще обрящеши мужа, да не благословиши его, и аще благословит тя муж, не отвещай ему: и возложи жезл мой на лице отрочища.

Then he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And lay my staff on the face of the child."

30 И рече мати отрочища: жив Господь и жива душа твоя, аще оставлю тебе. И воста Елиссей и иде вслед ея.

But the mother of the child said, "As YHWH lives and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." So he arose and followed her.

31 И Гиезий иде пред нею, и возложи жезл на лице отрочища, и не бе гласа, и не бе слышания. И возвратися во сретение его и поведа ему глаголя: не воста отрочищь.

Now Gehazi went on ahead of them and placed the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or response. Therefore he came back to meet him and told him, saying, "The child did not wake up."

32 И вниде Елиссей в храмину, и се, отрочищь умерый положен на одре его.

When Elisha arrived at the house, look, the child was dead, lying on his bed.

33 И вниде Елиссей в дом и затвори дверь за двою собою, и помолися Господу.

So he went in and shut the door on the two of them and prayed to YHWH.

34 И взыде, и ляже на отрочищи, и положи уста своя на устех его, и очи свои на очи его, и руце свои на руце его, и плесне свои на плесну его: и слячеся над ним, и дуну на него, и согреся плоть отрочища.

Then he got up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands, and he stretched himself upon him, and the body of the child grew warm.

35 И обратися, и походи в храмине сюду и сюду: и взыде, и слячеся над отрочищем седмижды, и отверзе отрочищь очи свои.

Then he returned and walked in the house once back and forth, and went up and stretched himself upon him, and the child sneezed seven times and the child opened his eyes.

36 И возопи Елиссей ко Гиезию и рече: призови ми Соманитяныню сию. И призва ю, и вниде к нему. И рече Елиссей: приими сына твоего.

Then he called to Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite." So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, "Pick up your son."

37 И вниде жена, и паде на ногу его, и поклонися ему до земли: и прият сына своего, и изыде.

Then she came in and fell at his feet and bowed herself to the ground. Then she picked up her son and left.

38 И Елиссей возвратися в Галгалы. И бе глад в земли той, и сынове пророчи седяху пред ним. И рече Елиссей отрочищу своему: настави коноб велий и свари варение сыном пророчим.

Now Elisha came again to Gilgal, while there was a famine in the land. And the sons of the prophets were sitting before him, and he said to his servant, "Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets."

39 И изыде един на село собрати зелия дивия: и обрет виноград на селе, и набра в нем яблока дивияго полну ризу свою, и всыпа в котел на сварение, яко не разумеша,

Then one of them went out into the field to gather herbs and found a wild vine, and gathered as many of its gourds as his garment would hold, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew, for he was unaware what it was.

40 и принесе мужем ясти. И бысть ядущым им от варения, и се, возопиша и реша: смерть в конобе, человече Божий. И не могоша ясти.

So they poured out for the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, "Man of God, there is death in the pot." And they could not eat it.

41 И рече: возмите муки и всыплите в коноб. И рече Елиссей ко Гиезию отрочищу своему: изнеси людем, да ядят. И не бысть ктому злаго глагола в конобе.

But he said, "Bring some flour." And he threw it into the pot and said, "Pour it out for the people, that they may eat." And there was no harm in the pot.

42 И муж прииде от Вефариса и принесе к человеку Божию первородных двадесять хлебов ячменных и смоквы. И рече: дадите людем, да ядят.

Now a man from Baal Shalishah came and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And he said, "Give to the people, that they may eat."

43 И рече отрок его: что дам сие сту мужем? И рече: даждь людем я, да ядят, яко сице глаголет Господь: будут ясти, и останет.

But his servant said, "What, should I set this before a hundred men?" So he said, "Give them to the people so that they may eat, for thus says YHWH, 'They will eat, and will have some left over.'"

44 И ядоша, и оста по глаголу Господню.

So he set it before them, and they ate, and had some left over, according to the word of YHWH.
