Вторая книга Царств 21
1 И бысть глад на земли во дни Давидовы три лета, лето по лету. И вопроси Давид лица Господня и рече Господь: над Саулом и над домом его обида в смерти кровей его, понеже умертви Гаваониты.
There was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. The LORD said, “It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”
2 И призва царь Давид Гаваониты и рече к ним: и Гаваонитяне не суть сынове Израилевы, но токмо от остатков Аморрейских, и сынове Израилевы кляшася им: Саул же взыска поразити я, внегда поревновати ему по сынех Израилевых и Иудиных.
The king called the Gibeonites and said to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the children of Israel had sworn to them; and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah);
3 И рече Давид ко Гаваонитяном: что сотворю вам? И чим умолю, да благословите достояние Господне?
and David said to the Gibeonites, “What should I do for you? And with what should I make atonement, that you may bless the LORD’s inheritance?”
4 И реша ему Гаваонитяне: несть нам сребра или злата со Саулом и с домом его, и несть нам мужа умертвити от всего Израиля. И рече: что вы глаголете, и сотворю вам?
The Gibeonites said to him, “It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” He said, “I will do for you whatever you say.”
5 И реша ко царю: мужа, иже соверши над нами и погна ны, иже умысли потребити ны, потребим его, да не будет во всех пределех Израилевых:
They said to the king, “The man who consumed us and who plotted against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 дадите нам седмь мужей от сынов его, и повесим их на солнце Господеви в Гаваоне Саули избранных Господних. И рече царь: аз дам.
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD.” The king said, “I will give them.”
7 И пощаде царь Мемфивосфеа, сына Ионафаня сына Сауля, клятвы ради Господни, яже посреде их и посреде Давида и посреде Ионафана сына Сауля.
But the king spared Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD’s oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 И взя царь два сына Ресфы дщере Аиа, подложницы Саули, ихже роди Саулу, Ермониа и Мемфивосфеа, и пять сынов Мелхолы дщере Саули ихже роди Есдриилу сыну Верзеллиа Моулафиева,
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 и даде их в руки Гаваонитом. И повесиша я на солнце на горе пред Господем, и падоша тамо сии седмь вкупе: тии же умроша во днех жатвы первых, в начале жатвы ячменя.
He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites; and they hanged them on the mountain before the LORD, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 И взя Ресфа дщи Аиина вретище, и потче е себе при камени, в начале жатвы ячменя дондеже снидоша на них воды Божия с небесе, и не даде птицам небесным днем почити на них, ниже зверем земным нощию.
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 И поведаша Давиду вся елика сотвори Ресфа дщерь Аиа, подложница Сауля. И истлеша, и взя я Дан сын Иой, иже от исчадий исполиновых.
David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 И иде Давид, и взя кости Саули и кости Ионафана сына его от мужей сынов Иависа Галаадскаго, иже украдоша их от стогны Вефсани, зане повесиша их тамо иноплеменницы в день, в оньже поразиша иноплеменницы Саула в Гелвуи.
So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 И вознесе Давид кости Саули оттуду и кости Ионафана сына его, и собра кости повешеных на солнце:
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son. They also gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 и погребоша кости Саули и кости Ионафана сына его, и кости повешеных на солнце, в земли Вениаминове, при Краи во гробе Киса отца его, и сотвориша вся елика заповеда царь. И послуша Бог земли по сих.
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father; and they performed all that the king commanded. After that, God answered prayer for the land.
15 И бысть паки брань иноплеменником со Израилтяны. И сниде Давид и отроцы его с ним, и бишася со иноплеменники: и утрудися Давид.
The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
16 И Иесвий, иже бе от внук Рафаних, (у негоже) бе вес копия его триста сикль веса медяна, и той бе препоясан оружием, и хотяше поразити Давида.
and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, he being armed with a new sword, thought he would kill David.
17 И поможе ему Авесса сын Саруин, и избави Давида Авесса, и порази иноплеменника, и умертви его. Тогда кляшася мужие Давидовы, глаголюще: не изыдеши ктому с нами на брань, да не угасиши светилника Израилева.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “Don’t go out with us to battle any more, so that you don’t quench the lamp of Israel.”
18 И бысть по сих еще брань в Гефе со иноплеменники: тогда порази Совохей иже от Асофы собранныя внуки Гигантовы.
After this, there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 И бысть паки брань в Роме со иноплеменники: и порази Елеанан сын Ариоргима Вифлеемлянин Голиафа иже от Геффеа, и древо копия его бысть аки навой ткущих.
There was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite’s brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 И бысть паки брань в Гефе: и бе муж от мадона, и персты рук его и персты ног его по шести, числом двадесять четыри: и той родися от Рафы,
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on every hand and six toes on every foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21 и уничижи Израиля: и уби его Ионафан сын Сафая брата Давидова.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, killed him.
22 Четыри сии родишася внуцы Гигантовы рафе в Гефе, и падоша от руку Давидову и от руку рабов его.
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
