< 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 tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
2 И рече Господь ко Иисусу: се, Аз предаю тебе в руце Иерихон и царя его, и сущыя в нем, сильны крепостию:
The LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
3 и обходите град окрест вси мужие крепцыи единою (на день), тако сотворите шесть дний:
All of your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this 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:
Seven priests shall bear seven shofars of rams’ horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the shofars.
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.
It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the shofar, all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the city wall will fall down flat, and the people shall go up, every man straight in front of him.”
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.
Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven shofars of rams’ horns before the LORD’s ark.”
7 И рече им глаголя: повелите людем оыти и окружити град, и воини да предидут вооружени пред кивотом Господним.
They said to the people, “Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the LORD’s ark.”
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:
It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven shofars of rams’ horns before the LORD advanced and blew the shofars, and the ark of the LORD’s covenant followed them.
9 воини же да предидут напреди, и жерцы трубяще в трубы, и последующии созади кивота завета Господня бяху идуще и трубяще трубами.
The armed men went before the priests who blew the shofars, and the ark went after them. The shofars sounded as they went.
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.
Joshua commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout.”
11 И обшед кивот завета Божия окрест града (единою), абие иде в полк, и ста тамо.
So he caused the LORD’s ark to go around the city, circling it once. Then they came into the camp, and stayed in the camp.
12 Во вторый же день воста Иисус заутра, и воздвигоша жерцы кивот завета Господня.
Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the LORD’s ark.
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.
The seven priests bearing the seven shofars of rams’ horns in front of the LORD’s ark went on continually, and blew the shofars. The armed men went in front of them. The rear guard came after the LORD’s ark. The shofars sounded as they went.
14 И обыдоша град в день вторый единою, и поидоша паки в полк: сице творяху шесть дний.
The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
15 И бысть в седмый день, восташа в востание утреннее, и обыдоша град в той день седмижды.
On the seventh day, they rose early at the dawning of the day, and marched around the city in the same way seven times. On this day only they marched around the city seven times.
16 И бысть во обхождении седмем вострубиша жерцы трубами, и рече Иисус к сыном Израилевым: воскликните, предаде бо Господь вам град:
At the seventh time, when the priests blew the shofars, Joshua said to the people, “Shout, for the LORD has given you the city!
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:
The city shall be devoted, even it and all that is in it, to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that 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 as for you, only keep yourselves from what is devoted to destruction, lest when you have devoted it, you take of the devoted thing; so you would make the camp of Israel accursed and trouble it.
19 злато же все и сребро, и медь и железо свято да будет Господу: в сокровище Господне да внесется.
But all the silver, gold, and vessels of bronze and iron are holy to the LORD. They shall come into the LORD’s treasury.”
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 the people shouted and the priests blew the shofars. When the people heard the sound of the shofar, the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight in front of 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.
They utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, sheep, and donkey, 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.
Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, “Go into the prostitute’s house, and bring the woman and all that she has out from there, as you swore to her.”
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.
The young men who were spies went in, and brought out Rahab with her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. They also brought out all of her relatives, and they set them outside of the camp of Israel.
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.
They burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they put the silver, the gold, and the vessels of bronze and of iron into the treasury of the LORD’s house.
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 Rahab the prostitute, her father’s household, and all that she had, Joshua saved alive. She lives in the middle of Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
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.
Joshua commanded them with an oath at that time, saying, “Cursed is the man before the LORD who rises up and builds this city Jericho. With the loss of his firstborn he will lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son he will set up its gates.”
27 И бяше Господь со Иисусом, и бе имя его по всей земли.
So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
