Вторая книга Царств 16
1 И Давид прейде мало что от роса, и се, Сива отрок Мемфивосфеов в сретение ему: и супруг ослят оседланых, и на них двести хлебов, и сто гроздий, и сто фиников, и мех вина.
And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and an hundred bunches of raisins, and an hundred of summer fruits, and a bottle of wine.
2 И рече царь к Сиве: что сия тебе? И рече Сива: ослята на яждение дому цареву, а хлебы и финики на снедение отроком, и вино пити ослабевшым в пустыни.
And the king said unto Ziba, What mean you by these? And Ziba said, The asses be for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink.
3 И рече царь: и где сын господина твоего? И рече Сива ко царю: се, седит во Иерусалиме, яко рече: днесь возвратят ми весь дом Израилев царство отца моего.
And the king said, And where is your master's son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he abides at Jerusalem: for he said, To day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
4 И рече царь к Сиве: се, тебе вся елика суть Мемфивосфеова. И рече Сива поклонився: да обрящу благодать пред очима твоима, господи мой царю.
Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, your are all that pertained unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly plead to you that I may find grace in your sight, my lord, O king.
5 И прииде Давид царь до Вафирима, и се, оттуду муж исхождаше от рода дому Сауля, имя же ему Семей сын Гирань: изыде же исходя и проклиная
And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
6 и камением метая на Давида и на вся отроки царя Давида: и вси людие и вси сильнии одесную и ошуюю царя бяху.
And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
7 И тако рече Семей проклиная его: изыди, изыди, мужу кровей и мужу беззаконный:
And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, you bloody man, and you man of Belial:
8 возврати на тя Господь вся крови дому Сауля, понеже воцарился еси вместо его: и даде Господь царство в руце Авессалома сына твоего: и се, ты в злобе твоей, яко муж кровей ты.
The LORD has returned upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose position you have reigned; and the LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son: and, behold, you are taken in your mischief, because you are a bloody man.
9 И рече Авесса сын Саруин ко царю: почто проклинает пес умерший сей господина моего царя? Ныне пойду, и отиму главу его.
Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray you, and take off his head.
10 И рече царь ко Авессе: что мне и вам, сынове Саруины? Оставите его, и тако да проклинает, яко Господь рече ему проклинати Давида: и кто речет: почто сотворил еси тако?
And the king said, What have I to do with you, all of you sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the LORD has said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore have you done so?
11 И рече Давид ко Авессе и ко всем отроком своим: се, сын мой изшедый из чрева моего ищет души моея, а кольми паче сын Иеминиев: оставите его проклинати мя, яко рече ему Господь:
And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came out of my bowels, seeks my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD has bidden him.
12 негли призрит Господь на смирение мое, и возвратит ми благая вместо клятвы Его во днешний день.
It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.
13 И идяше Давид и вси мужие его путем: а Семей идяше со страны горы близ его идый и проклиная, и камением меща со страны его, и перстию сыпая.
And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side opposite to him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
14 И прииде царь и вси людие иже с ним утруждени, и препочиша ту.
And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
15 Авессалом же и вси мужие Израилевы внидоша во Иерусалим, и Ахитофел с ним.
And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 И бысть егда прииде Хусий первый друг Давидов ко Авессалому: и рече Хусий ко Авессалому: да живет царь.
And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, was come unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.
17 И рече Авессалом к Хусию: сия ли милость твоя со другом твоим? Почто не отшел еси со другом твоим?
And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this your kindness to your friend? why went you not with your friend?
18 И рече Хусий ко Авессалому: ни, но вслед (иду), егоже избра Господь и людие сии и вси мужие Израилевы, того есмь, и с тем буду:
And Hushai said unto Absalom, Nay; but whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel, choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
19 и второе, кому аз поработаю? Не пред сыном ли его? Якоже работах пред отцем твоим, тако буду и пред тобою.
And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence.
20 И рече Авессалом ко Ахитофелу: дадите себе совет, что сотворим?
Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
21 И рече Ахитофел ко Авессалому: вниди к подложницам отца твоего, яже остави стрещи дом свой, и услышат вси Израилтяне, яко посрамил еси отца твоего, и возмогут руки всех сущих с тобою.
And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Go in unto your father's concubines, which he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that you are abhorred of your father: then shall the hands of all that are with you be strong.
22 И поставиша Авессалому шатер на палате, и вниде Авессалом к подложницам отца своего пред очима всех Израилтян.
So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 И совет Ахитофелев, егоже совещаваше во дни первыя, имже образом вопросил бы кто Бога о словеси, тако всяк совет Ахитофелев, и иже Давиду, и иже Авессалому.
And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
