< Книга Иисуса Навина 6 >

1 Иерихон же заключен и огражден бысть от лица сынов Израилевых: и никтоже из него исхождаше, ниже вхождаше.
Now Jericho was close shut up and fenced, for fear of the children of Israel, and no man durst go out or come in.
2 И рече Господь ко Иисусу: се, Аз предаю тебе в руце Иерихон и царя его, и сущыя в нем, сильны крепостию:
And the Lord said to Josue: Behold I have given into thy hands Jericho, and the king thereof, and all the valiant men.
3 и обходите град окрест вси мужие крепцыи единою (на день), тако сотворите шесть дний:
Go round about the city, all ye fighting men, once a day: so shall ye do for six days.
4 и седмь жерцы да возмут седмь труб рожаных пред кивотом: и в седмый день оыдите град седмижды, и жерцы да вострубят в трубы рожаны:
And on the seventh day the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and shall go before the ark of the covenant: and you shall go about the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
5 и будет егда вострубите трубою рожаною, внегда услышати вам глас трубы, да воскликнут вси людие: и воскликнувшым им, падут сами стены града во основании своем, и внидут вси людие устремившеся кийждо прямо себе во град.
And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand.
6 И вниде Иисус сын Навин к жерцем сынов Израилевых и рече им глаголя: возмите кивот завета Господня, и седмь жерцы да возмут седмь труб рожаных пред лицем кивота Господня.
Then Josue the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them: Take the ark of the covenant: and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and march before the ark of the Lord.
7 И рече им глаголя: повелите людем оыти и окружити град, и воини да предидут вооружени пред кивотом Господним.
And he said to the people: Go, and compass the city, armed, marching before the ark of the Lord.
8 И бысть егда рече Иисус к людем, и седмь жерцы имуще седмь труб священных да предидут такожде пред Господем, и да вострубят доброгласно: и кивот завета Господня вслед по них да идет:
And when Josue had ended his words, and the seven priests blew the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
9 воини же да предидут напреди, и жерцы трубяще в трубы, и последующии созади кивота завета Господня бяху идуще и трубяще трубами.
And all the armed men went before, the rest of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets was heard on all sides.
10 Людем же заповеда Иисус, глаголя: не вопите, ниже да слышит кто гласа вашего, ниже да изыдет из уст ваших слово до дне, в оньже повелю вам сам воскликнути, и тогда воскликните.
But Josue had commanded the people, saying: You shall not shout, nor shall your voice be heard, nor any word go out of your mouth: until the day come wherein I shall say to you: Cry, and shout.
11 И обшед кивот завета Божия окрест града (единою), абие иде в полк, и ста тамо.
So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there.
12 Во вторый же день воста Иисус заутра, и воздвигоша жерцы кивот завета Господня.
And Josue rising before day, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
13 И жерцы седмь носящии седмь труб предидяху пред кивотом Господним и трубиша трубами, и воини вооружени идяху, и прочии людие вслед кивота завета Господня идуще, и жерцы вострубиша трубами рожаными.
And seven of them seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee: and they went before the ark of the Lord walking and sounding the trumpets: and the armed men went before them, and the rest of the common people followed the ark, and they blew the trumpets.
14 И обыдоша град в день вторый единою, и поидоша паки в полк: сице творяху шесть дний.
And they went round about the city the second day once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
15 И бысть в седмый день, восташа в востание утреннее, и обыдоша град в той день седмижды.
But the seventh day, rising up early, they went about the city, as it was ordered, seven times.
16 И бысть во обхождении седмем вострубиша жерцы трубами, и рече Иисус к сыном Израилевым: воскликните, предаде бо Господь вам град:
And when in the seventh going about the priests sounded with the trumpets, Josue said to all Israel: Shout: for the Lord hath delivered the city to you:
17 и будет град сей проклят, и вся, елика суть в нем, Господу сил: токмо Раав блудницу снабдите ю, и вся, елика суть в дому ея, яко сокры прелагатаи, ихже посылахом:
And let this city be an anathema, and all things that are in it, to the Lord. Let only Rahab the harlot live, with all that are with her in the house: for she hid the messengers whom we sent.
18 но вы соблюдитеся от клятвы, да не когда помысливше вы возмете от клятвы, и сотворите полк сынов Израилевых клятву, и потребите ны:
But beware ye lest you touch ought of those things that are forbidden, and you be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.
19 злато же все и сребро, и медь и железо свято да будет Господу: в сокровище Господне да внесется.
But whatsoever gold or silver there shall be, or vessels of brass and iron, let it be consecrated to the Lord, laid up in his treasures.
20 И вострубиша жерцы трубами: егда же услышаша людие глас трубный, воскликнуша вси купно людие гласом великим и сильным: и падоша вся стены града окрест, и внидоша вси людие во град, кийждо противу себе, и прияша град.
So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city,
21 И прокля и Иисус, и елика быша во граде, от мужеска полу и до женска, от юноши и до старца, и от телца до овцы и до осляте, все под мечь.
And killed all that were in it, man and woman, young and old. The oxen also and the sheep, and the asses, they slew with the edge of the sword.
22 И двоим юношам соглядавшым землю рече Иисус: внидите в дом жены блудницы, и изведите ю оттуду, и вся, елика суть ея, якоже клястеся ей.
But Josue said to the two men that had been sent for spies: Go into the harlot’s house, and bring her out, and all things that are hers, as you assured her by oath.
23 И внидоста два юношы соглядавшии град в дом жены, и изведосте Раав блудницу, и отца ея и матерь ея, и братию ея и все сродство ея, и вся елика быша ей, изведоста и постависта я вне полка Израилева.
And the young men went in and brought out Rahab, and her parents, her brethren also and all her goods and her kindred, and made them to stay without the camp.
24 И град сожгоша огнем со всем, еже бе в нем, кроме злата и сребра, меди и железа, яже отдаша в дом Господень внести Господеви.
But they burned the city, and all things that were therein; except the gold and silver, and vessels of brass and iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
25 И Раав блудницу и весь дом ея отеческий остави живы Иисус, и обитати сотвори во Израили даже до дне сего, понеже сокры прелагатаи, ихже посла Иисус соглядати Иерихона.
But Josue saved Rahab the harlot and her father’s house, and all she had, and they dwelt in the midst of Israel until this present day: because she hid the messengers whom he had sent to spy out Jericho. At that time, Josue made an imprecation, saying:
26 И прокля Иисус в той день, глаголя: проклят человек пред Господем, иже поставит и созиждет град сей Иерихон: на первенце своем оснует его, и на меншем своем поставит врата его. И сице сотвори Азан, иже от Вефиля: на Авироне первенце своем основа и, и на меншем спасенем постави врата его.
Cursed be the man before the Lord, that shall raise up and build the city of Jericho. In his firstborn may he lay the foundation thereof, and in the last of his children set up its gates.
27 И бяше Господь со Иисусом, и бе имя его по всей земли.
And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land.
