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 Abessalom prepared for himself chariots 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 Abessalom rose early, and stood by the side of the way of the gate: and it came to pass that every man who had a cause, came to the king for judgment, and Abessalom cried to him, and said to him, Of what city are you? And he said, Your 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 Abessalom said to him, See, your affairs [are] right and clear, yet you have no one [appointed] of the king to hear you.
4 И рече Авессалом: кто мя поставит судию на земли, и ко мне приидет всяк муж имеяй прю и суд, и оправдаю его?
And Abessalom said, O that one would make me a judge in the land; then every man who had a dispute or a cause would come to me, and I would judge him!
5 И бысть егда приближашеся муж поклонитися ему, и простираше руку свою, и приимаше его, и целоваше его.
And it came to pass when a man came near to do him obeisance, that he stretched out 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 Abessalom did after this manner to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; and Abessalom gained 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 after forty years, that Abessalom said to his father, I will go now, and pay my vows, which I vowed to the Lord in Chebron.
8 зане обет обеща раб твой, егда жих в Гедсуре Сирийстем, глаголя: аще возвращая возвратит мя Господь во Иерусалим, и послужу Господу.
For your servant vowed a vow when I lived at Gedsur in Syria, saying, If the Lord should indeed restore me to Jerusalem, then will I serve the Lord.
9 И рече ему царь: иди с миром. И востав иде в Хеврон.
And the king said to him, Go in peace. And he arose and went to Chebron.
10 И посла Авессалом соглядатаи во вся колена Израилева, глаголя: егда услышите вы глас трубы рожаны, и рцыте: воцарися царь Авессалом в Хевроне.
And Abessalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, When you hear the sound of the trumpet, then shall you say, Abessalom is become king in Chebron.
11 И идоша со Авессаломом двести мужей от Иерусалима позвани: и идяху в простоте своей, и не разумеша всякаго глагола.
And there went with Abessalom two hundred chosen men from Jerusalem; and they went in their simplicity, and knew not 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 Abessalom sent to Achitophel the Theconite, the counsellor of David, from his city, from Gola, where he was sacrificing: and there was a strong conspiracy; and the people with Abessalom were increasingly numerous.
13 И прииде вестник к Давиду, глаголя: бысть сердце мужей Израилевых со Авессаломом.
And there came a messenger to David, saying, the heart of the men of Israel is gone after Abessalom.
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 in Jerusalem, Rise, and let us flee, for we have no refuge from Abessalom: make haste and go, lest he overtake us speedily, and bring evil upon us, and strike 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, In all things which our lord the king chooses, behold [we are] your servants.
16 И изыде царь и весь дом его ногами своими, и остави царь десять жен подложниц своих хранити дом.
And the king and all his house went out on foot: and the king left ten women of his concubines to keep the house.
17 И изыде царь и вси отроцы его пеши и сташа в Дому Сущем Далече:
And the king and all his servants went out on foot; and abode in a distant house.
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 by his side, and every Chelethite, and every Phelethite, and they stood by the olive tree in the wilderness: and all the people marched near him, and all his court, and all the men of might, and all the men of war, six hundred: and they were present at his side: and every Chelethite, and every Phelethite, and all the six hundred Gittites that came on foot out of Geth, and they went 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:
And the king said to Ethi, the Gittite, Why do you also go with us? return, and dwell with the king, for you are a stranger, and you has come forth as a sojourner out of your 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 you came yesterday, shall I today cause you to travel with us, and shall you [thus] change your place? you did come forth yesterday, and today shall I set you in motion to go along with us? I indeed will go wherever I may go: return then, and cause your brethren to return with you, and may the Lord deal mercifully and truly with you.
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 Ethi answered the king and said, [As] the Lord lives and as my lord the king lives, in the place wherever my lord shall be, whether it be for death or life, there shall your servant 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 the king said to Ethi, Come and pass over with me. So Ethi the Gittite and the king passed over, and all his servants, and all the multitude 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 by over the brook of Kedron; and the king crossed the brook Kedron: and all the people and the king passed on 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 behold also Sadoc, and all the Levites were with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Baethar: and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had passed 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 Sadoc, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I should find favor in the eyes of the Lord, then will he bring me back, and he will show me it and its beauty.
26 и аще тако речет: не благоволих в тебе: се, аз есмь, да сотворит ми по благому пред очима Своима.
But if he should say thus, I have no pleasure in you; behold, [here] I am, let him do to me according to that which is good in his eyes.
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:
And the king said to Sadoc the priest, Behold, you shall return to the city in peace, and Achimaas your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar, your two sons with you.
28 видите, аз вселяюся во аравоф пустынный, дондеже приидет ми слово от вас, еже возвестити ми.
Behold, I continue in arms in Araboth of the desert, until there come tidings from you to report to me.
29 И возврати Садок и Авиафар кивот Божий во Иерусалим, и седе тамо.
So Sadoc and Abiathar brought back the ark of the Lord to Jerusalem, and it continued 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, ascending and weeping, and had his head covered, and went barefooted: and all the people that were with him covered [every] man his head; and they went up, ascending and weeping.
31 И возвестиша Давиду глаголюще: и Ахитофел в мятежницех со Авессаломом. И рече Давид: разруши совет Ахитофелев, Господи, Боже мой.
And it was reported to David, saying, Achitophel also [is] among the conspirators with Abessalom. And David said, O Lord my God, disconcert, I pray you, the counsel of Achitophel.
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 David came as far as Ros, where he worshipped God: and behold, Chusi the chief friend of David came out to meet him, having tore his garment, and earth [was] upon his head.
33 И рече ему Давид: аще пойдеши со мною, и будеши ми в тягость:
And David said to him, If you should go over with me, then will you 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 you shall return to the city, and shall say to Abessalom, Your brethren are passed over, and the king your father is passed over after me: and now I am your servant, O king, suffer me to live: at one time even of late I was the servant of your father, and now I [am] your humble servant—so shall you disconcert for me, the counsel of Achitophel.
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, behold, [there are] there with you Sadoc and Abiathar the priests; and it shall be that every word that you shall hear of the house of the king, you shall report it to Sadoc 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, [there are] there with them their two sons, Achimaas the son of Sadoc, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar; and by them you shall report to me every word which you shall hear.
37 И вниде Хусий друг Давидов во град, и Авессалом тогда вхождаше во Иерусалим.
So Chusi the friend of David went into the city, and Abessalom was lately gone into Jerusalem.
