Вторая книга Царств 15
1 И бысть по сих, и сотвори себе Авессалом колесницы и кони и пятьдесят муж текущих пред ним:
And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared for him a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
2 и воставаше рано Авессалом, и стояше при самем пути врат: и бысть всяк муж, емуже бяше пря, прииде пред царя на суд, и возопи к нему Авессалом, и глаголаше ему: от коего града ты еси? И рече ему муж: от единаго колен Израилевых раб твой.
And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate. And it was so, that, when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, Of what city are thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.
3 И рече к нему Авессалом: се, словеса твоя блага и удобна, но слушающаго несть ти от царя.
And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters are good and right, but there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee.
4 И рече Авессалом: кто мя поставит судию на земли, и ко мне приидет всяк муж имеяй прю и суд, и оправдаю его?
Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any suit or case might come to me, and I would do for him justice!
5 И бысть егда приближашеся муж поклонитися ему, и простираше руку свою, и приимаше его, и целоваше его.
And it was so, that, when any man came near to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
6 И сотвори Авессалом по глаголу сему всему Израилю приходящым на суд к царю и приусвои Авессалом сердца сынов Израилевых.
And on this manner Absalom did to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
7 И бысть от конца четыредесяти лет, и рече Авессалом ко отцу своему: пойду ныне и воздам обеты моя, яже обещах Господу в Хевроне:
And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to Jehovah, in Hebron.
8 зане обет обеща раб твой, егда жих в Гедсуре Сирийстем, глаголя: аще возвращая возвратит мя Господь во Иерусалим, и послужу Господу.
For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If Jehovah shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah.
9 И рече ему царь: иди с миром. И востав иде в Хеврон.
And the king said to him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.
10 И посла Авессалом соглядатаи во вся колена Израилева, глаголя: егда услышите вы глас трубы рожаны, и рцыте: воцарися царь Авессалом в Хевроне.
But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom is king in Hebron.
11 И идоша со Авессаломом двести мужей от Иерусалима позвани: и идяху в простоте своей, и не разумеша всякаго глагола.
And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem who were invited, and went in their simplicity. And they did not know anything.
12 И посла Авессалом, и призва Ахитофела Галамонийскаго, советника Давидова, от града его Голамы, егда жряше жертвы. И бысть смятение крепко: и людий множество идущих со Авессаломом.
And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
13 И прииде вестник к Давиду, глаголя: бысть сердце мужей Израилевых со Авессаломом.
And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
14 И рече Давид всем отроком своим сущым с ним во Иерусалиме: востаните, и бежим, яко несть нам спасения от лица Авессаломля: ускорите ити, да не ускорит и возмет нас, и наведет на нас злобу, и избиет град острием меча.
And David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee, for otherwise none of us shall escape from Absalom. Make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
15 И реша отроцы царевы к царю: вся елика заповесть господь наш царь, се, мы отроцы твои.
And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king shall choose.
16 И изыде царь и весь дом его ногами своими, и остави царь десять жен подложниц своих хранити дом.
And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the house.
17 И изыде царь и вси отроцы его пеши и сташа в Дому Сущем Далече:
And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and they remained in Beth-merhak.
18 и вси отроцы его от обою страну его идяху, и вси Хелефее и вси Фелефее и вси Гефее, шесть сот мужей шедше пеши от Гефа предидяху пред лицем царевым.
And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19 И рече царь ко Еффею Геффеину: почто и ты идеши с нами? Возвратися и живи с царем, яко чуждь еси ты, и яко преселился еси ты от места твоего:
Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why do thou also go with us? Return, and abide with the king, for thou are a foreigner, and also an exile. Return to thine own place.
20 аще вчера пришел еси, и днесь ли подвигну тя ити с нами? И аз иду, аможе пойду: иди и возвратися, и возврати братию твою с тобою, и Господь да сотворит с тобою милость и истину.
Whereas thou came but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go where I may? Return thou, and take back thy brothers. Mercy and truth be with thee.
21 И отвеща Еффей к царю и рече: жив Господь, и жив господин мой царь, яко на месте, идеже будет господин мой царь, или в смерти, или в животе, тамо будет раб твой.
And Ittai answered the king, and said, As Jehovah lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there thy servant will also be.
22 И рече царь ко Еффею: гряди, и прейди со мною. И прейде Еффей Геффеин и царь и вси отроцы его и весь народ иже с ним.
And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
23 И вся земля плакашеся гласом великим. И вси людие прехождаху по потоку Кедрску, и царь прейде чрез поток Кедрский, и вси людие и царь идяху к лицу пути пустыннаго.
And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The king himself also passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.
24 И се, и Садок иерей и вси левити с ним, носяще кивот завета Господня от Вефары: и поставиша кивот Божий: и Авиафар взыде, дондеже престаша вси людие исходити из града.
And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up until all the people had finished passing out of the city.
25 И рече царь к Садоку: возврати кивот Божий во град, и да станет на месте своем: аще обрящу благодать пред очима Господнима, и возвратит мя, и покажет ми его и лепоту его:
And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city. If I shall find favor in the eyes of Jehovah he will bring me again, and show me both it, and his habitation.
26 и аще тако речет: не благоволих в тебе: се, аз есмь, да сотворит ми по благому пред очима Своима.
But if he says thus, I have no delight in thee, behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.
27 И рече царь Садоку иерею: видите, ты возвращаешися во град с миром и Ахимаас сын твой и Ионафан сын Авиафаров, два сыны ваши с вами:
The king said also to Zadok the priest, Are thou not a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
28 видите, аз вселяюся во аравоф пустынный, дондеже приидет ми слово от вас, еже возвестити ми.
See, I will remain at the fords of the wilderness until there comes word from you to report to me.
29 И возврати Садок и Авиафар кивот Божий во Иерусалим, и седе тамо.
Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem, and they abode there.
30 И Давид восхождаше восходом на гору Елеонскую восходя и плачася, и покрыв главу свою, и сам идяше босыма ногама: и вси людие иже с ним покрыша кийждо главу свою, и восхождаху восходяще и плачущеся.
And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up, and he had his head covered, and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
31 И возвестиша Давиду глаголюще: и Ахитофел в мятежницех со Авессаломом. И рече Давид: разруши совет Ахитофелев, Господи, Боже мой.
And it was told David, saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O Jehovah, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.
32 И бе Давид грядый даже до роса, идеже поклонися Богу. И се, на сретение ему (изыде) Хусий первый друг Давидов, растерзав ризы своя, и персть на главе его.
And it came to pass, that, when David came to the top of the ascent, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and dirt upon his head.
33 И рече ему Давид: аще пойдеши со мною, и будеши ми в тягость:
And David said to him, If thou pass on with me, then thou will be a burden to me,
34 аще же возвратишися во град и речеши Авессалому: минуша братия твоя, и царь за мною мину отец твой, и ныне раб твой есмь, царю, пощади мя жива быти: раб бех отца твоего тогда и доселе, ныне же аз твой раб: и разруши ми совет Ахитофелев:
but if thou return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king. As I have been thy father's servant in time past, so I will now be thy servant, then thou will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
35 и се, с тобою тамо Садок и Авиафар иерее: и будет всяк глагол, егоже услышиши из уст царских, и скажеши Садоку и Авиафару иереем:
And have thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? Therefore it shall be, that whatever thing thou shall hear out of the king's house, thou shall tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 се, тамо с ними два сына их, Ахимаас сын Садоков и Ионафан сын Авиафаров: и послите рукою их ко мне всяк глагол, егоже аще услышите.
Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. And by them ye shall send to me everything that ye shall hear.
37 И вниде Хусий друг Давидов во град, и Авессалом тогда вхождаше во Иерусалим.
So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
