Второзаконие 1
1 Сия словеса, яже глагола Моисей всему Израилю об ону страну Иордана, в пустыни на запады, близ Чермнаго моря, между Фараном и Тофолом, и Ловоном и Авлоном и златыми рудами:
These are the words which Moses spoke to all of Israel, across the Jordan, in the plain of the wilderness opposite the Red Sea, between Paran and Tophel and Laban and Hazeroth, where gold is very plentiful,
2 единонадесяти дний от Хорива путь чрез гору Сиир даже до Кадис-Варни.
eleven days from Horeb, by way of Mount Seir as far as Kadesh-barnea.
3 И бысть в четыредесятое лето, в первыйнадесять месяц, в первый день месяца глагола Моисей ко всем сыном Израилевым, по всему елико заповеда ему Господь к ним,
In the fortieth year, on the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, Moses told the sons of Israel all that the Lord had instructed him. And so he spoke to them,
4 по убиении Сиона царя Аморрейска, жившаго во Есевоне, и Ога царя Васанска, жившаго во Астарофе и во Едраине,
after he had struck down Sihon, the king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon, and Og, the king of Bashan, who resided at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
5 об ону страну Иордана в земли Моавли, нача Моисей изясняти закон сей, глаголя:
across the Jordan in the land of Moab. And so, Moses began to explain the law, and to say:
6 Господь Бог наш глагола нам в Хориве, глаголя: да довлеет вам жити в горе сей:
“The Lord our God spoke to us at Horeb, saying: ‘You have remained long enough on this mountain.
7 обратитеся и воздвигнитеся вы, и внидите в гору Аморрейску, и ко всем населником Аравы, в гору и поле, и к югу и в приморскую землю Ханааню, и во Антиливан, даже до реки великия, реки Евфрата:
Turn back and go to the mountain of the Amorites, and to the other places which are near it: the plains as well as the mountainous regions, and the low-lying places opposite the south and along the shore of the sea, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river Euphrates.’
8 видите, предах пред вами землю, вшедше наследите землю, еюже клятся Господь отцем вашым, Аврааму и Исааку и Иакову, дати ю им и семени их по них.
‘Lo,’ he said, ‘I have delivered it to you. Enter and possess that which the Lord swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that he would give it to them, and to their offspring after them.’
9 И рекох к вам во время оно глаголя: не возмогу един водити вас:
And I said to you, at that time:
10 Господь Бог ваш умножил вы есть, и се, есте днесь яко звезды небесныя множеством:
‘I alone am not able to sustain you. For the Lord, your God, has multiplied you, and you are today like the stars of heaven, very many.
11 Господь Бог отец ваших да приложит вам, яко да будете тысящами сугубо, и да благословит вас, яко же глагола вам:
May the Lord, the God of your fathers, add to this number many thousands more, and may he bless you, just as he has said.
12 како возмогу един носити труды вашя и тяжести вашя и пререкания ваша?
Alone, I do not have the strength to endure your arbitrations and judgments and disputes.
13 Изберите себе мужы мудры и уметелны и смысленны в племенех ваших, и поставлю их над вами старейшины вам.
Offer, from among you, wise and experienced men, those whose conversation has been proven within your tribes, so that I may appoint them as your rulers.’
14 И отвещасте ми и рекосте: добро слово, еже глаголал еси сотворити.
Then you responded to me: ‘What you intend to do is a good thing.’
15 И взях от вас мужы мудры и уметелны и смысленны, и поставих их владети над вами тысященачалники и стоначалники, и пятьдесятоначалники и десятоначалники, и писмовводители судиям вашым.
And so, I took from your tribes men, wise and noble, and I appointed them as rulers, as tribunes and centurions, and as leaders over fifty and over ten, who would teach you each thing.
16 И заповедах судиям вашым во время оно, глаголя: разслушайте посреде братий ваших, и судите праведно посреде мужа и посреде брата его и посреде пришелца его:
And I instructed them, saying: ‘Listen to them, and judge what is just, whether he is one of your citizens or a sojourner.
17 да не познаете лица в суде, малому и великому судиши, и не устыдишися лица человеча, яко суд Божий есть: и речь, яже аще жестока будет у вас, донесете ю ко мне, и услышу ю.
There shall be no favoritism to any persons. So you shall listen to the little as well as to the great. And you shall not accept anyone’s reputation, for this is the judgment of God. But if anything seems difficult to you, then refer it to me, and I will hear it.’
18 И заповедах вам во время оно вся словеса, яже сотворите.
And I instructed you in all that you were obliged to do.
19 И воздвигшеся от Хорива, проидохом всю пустыню великую и страшную ону, юже видесте, путь горы Аморрейски, якоже заповеда нам Господь Бог наш: и приидохом до Кадис-Варни.
Then, setting out from Horeb, we crossed through a terrible and great wasteland, which you saw along the way of the mountain of the Amorite, just as the Lord our God had instructed us. And when we had arrived at Kadesh-barnea,
20 И рекох вам: приидосте до горы Аморрейски, юже Господь Бог наш дает вам:
I said to you: ‘You have arrived at the mountain of the Amorite, which the Lord our God will give to us.
21 видите, предаде Господь Бог ваш пред лицем вашим землю: вшедше наследите, якоже глагола Господь Бог отец ваших вам: небойтеся, ни ужасайтеся.
Gaze upon the land that the Lord your God gives to you. Ascend and possess it, just as the Lord our God has spoken to your fathers. Do not be afraid, and do not become terrified by anything.’
22 И приидосте ко мне вси и рекосте: да послем мужы пред нами, и да соглядают нам землю, и да поведят нам ответ, путь, имже дойдем ея, и грады, в няже внидем.
And you all approached me and said: ‘Let us send men who may consider the land, and who may report as to the way by which we ought to ascend, and as to which cities we ought to travel.’
23 И угодно бысть слово предо мною, и поях от вас дванадесять мужей, мужа единаго от коегождо племене.
And since the word was pleasing to me, I sent from among you twelve men, one from each tribe.
24 И обратившеся взыдоша на гору, и приидоша до дебри Грезновныя, и соглядаша ю:
These, when they had set out and had ascended the mountains, arrived as far as the valley of the cluster of grapes. And having considered the land,
25 и взяша в руце свои от плода земли и принесоша к нам, и глаголаху: блага земля, юже Господь Бог наш дает нам.
having taken from its fruits in order to show its fertility, they brought these to us, and they said: ‘The land that the Lord our God will give to us is good.’
26 И не восхотесте взыти, но преслушасте глаголгол Господа Бога вашего:
Yet you were not willing to go there. Instead, being incredulous to the word of the Lord our God,
27 и возроптасте в кущах своих и рекосте: ненависти ради изведе ны Господь из земли Египетския предати нас в руки Аморрейския, потребити нас:
you murmured in your tents, and you said: ‘The Lord hates us, and therefore he has led us away from the land of Egypt, so that he might deliver us into the hand of the Amorite and destroy us.
28 камо мы взыдем? Братия же вашя отвратиша сердца ваша, глаголюще: язык велик и мног и крепчае нас, и грады велицы и ограждени даже до небесе, но и сыны Исполинов видехом тамо.
To where should we ascend? The messengers have terrified our heart by saying: “The multitude is very great, and taller than us. And the cities are great, and the walls extend even to the sky. We have seen the sons of the Anakim there.”’
29 И глаголах к вам: не ужасайтеся, ниже убойтеся от них:
And I said to you: ‘Do not be apprehensive, nor should you fear them.
30 Господь Бог ваш предходяй пред лицем вашим, Той повоюет их с вами, по всему елико сотвори вам в земли Египетстей пред очима вашима,
The Lord God himself, who is your leader, will fight on your behalf, just as he did in Egypt in the sight of all.
31 и в пустыни сей, юже видесте: яко воспита тебе Господь Бог твой, якоже некий человек питает сына своего, по всему пути в оньже ходисте, дондеже приидосте на место сие.
And in the wilderness (as you yourselves saw), the Lord your God carried you, like a man who is accustomed to carrying his little son, along all the way that you walked, until you arrived at this place.’
32 И в словеси сем не веровасте Господеви Богу вашему,
And yet, despite all of this, you did not believe the Lord your God,
33 иже предходит пред вами в путь избрати вам место, путеводя вас огнем нощию, показуя вам путь, имже ити по нем, и облаком во дни.
who went before you on the way, and who marked out the place where you should pitch your tents, showing you the way by fire in the night, and by a pillar of cloud in the day.
34 И услыша Господь (Бог) глас словес ваших, и разгневався клятся, глаголя:
And when the Lord had heard the voice of your words, becoming angry, he swore and said:
35 аще узрит кто от мужей сих землю благую сию, еюже Аз кляхся отцем их,
‘None of the men of this wicked generation will see the good land, which I have promised by oath to your fathers,
36 разве Халев сын Иефонниин, сей узрит ю, и сему дам землю, на нюже взыде, и сыном его, понеже прилежит Господеви.
except Caleb the son of Jephuneh. For he himself will see it, and I will give the land on which he has walked to him and to his sons, because he has followed the Lord.’
37 И на мя разгневася Господь вас ради, глаголя: ниже ты внидеши тамо:
Neither is his indignation with the people a wonder, since the Lord also became angry with me because of you, and so he said: ‘Neither will you enter into that place.
38 Иисус сын Навин, иже стоит пред тобою, сей внидет тамо: сего укрепи, яко сей даст ю в наследие Израилю:
But Joshua, the son of Nun, your minister, shall himself enter on your behalf. Exhort and strengthen this man, and he himself shall divide the land by lot to Israel.
39 и отрочата ваша, о нихже глаголасте, яко в пленении имут быти, и всяко отроча младо, еже не весть днесь добра или зла, сии внидут тамо, и сим дам ю, и сии наследят ю:
Your little ones, about whom you said that they would be led away as captives, and your sons, who to this day are ignorant of the difference between good and evil, they shall enter. And I will give the land to them, and they will possess it.
40 и вы обратившеся ополчистеся в пустыню, путем к Чермному морю.
But as for you, turn back and go out to the wilderness, by way of the Red Sea.’
41 И отвещасте и рекосте мне: согрешихом пред Господем Богом нашим: мы шедше повоюем, по всему елико заповеда Господь Бог наш нам. И вземше кийждо орудия ратная своя и собравшеся взыдосте на гору.
And you responded to me: ‘We have sinned against the Lord. We will ascend and fight, just as the Lord our God has instructed.’ And having been equipped with weapons, when you were setting out for the mountain,
42 И рече Господь ко мне: рцы им: не восходите, ниже ратуйте, несмь бо с вами, и да не будете сотрени пред враги вашими.
the Lord said to me: ‘Say to them: Do not ascend and do not fight. For I am not with you. Otherwise, you may fall in the sight of your enemies.’
43 И глаголах к вам, и не послушасте мене: и преступисте слово Господне, и понудившеся взыдосте на гору.
I spoke, and you did not listen. But, opposing the order of the Lord, and swelling with pride, you ascended onto the mountain.
44 И изыде Аморрей живущий на горе той противу вам, и прогна вас, аки бы пчелы творили, и уязвляху вас от Сиира даже до Ермы.
And so, having gone forth, the Amorite, who was living in the mountains, came against you and pursued you, just as a swarm of bees would do. And he struck you down from Seir all the way to Hormah.
45 (И возвратистеся, ) и седше плакасте пред Господем, и не послуша Господь гласа вашего, ниже внят вам:
And when you returned and were weeping in the sight of the Lord, he would not hear you, nor was he willing to agree to your voice.
46 и седесте в Кадисе дни многи, елики дни тогда седесте.
Therefore, you camped at Kadesh-barnea for a long time.”
