< Книга Иисуса Навина 7 >
1 И прегрешиша сынове Израилевы прегрешением великим, и взяша от клятвы: взя бо Ахар сын Хармии, сына Замврии, сына Зары, от племене Иудина, от клятвы. И разгневася Господь яростию на сыны Израилевы.
The Israelites, however, acted unfaithfully regarding the things devoted to destruction. Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of what was set apart. So the anger of the LORD burned against the Israelites.
2 И посла Иисус мужы от Иерихона в Гай, иже есть противу Вифавн на восток Вефиля, и рече им, глаголя: шедше соглядайте землю. И идоша мужие и соглядаша Гай.
Meanwhile, Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is near Beth-aven to the east of Bethel, and told them, “Go up and spy out the land.” So the men went up and spied out Ai.
3 И возвратишася ко Иисусу и рекоша ему: да не идут вси людие, но яко две тысящы или три тысящы мужей да идут и да воюют Гай: да не ведеши тамо всех людий, мало бо есть их (тамо).
On returning to Joshua, they reported, “There is no need to send all the people; two or three thousand men are enough to go up and attack Ai. Since the people of Ai are so few, you need not wear out all our people there.”
4 И идоша от людий тамо, аки три тысящы мужей, и побегоша от лица мужей Гайских:
So about three thousand men went up, but they fled before the men of Ai.
5 и убиша от них мужие Гайстии яко тридесять и шесть мужей, и отгнаша их от врат, дондеже сокрушиша их на стремнине: и ужасеся сердце людий, и бысть яко вода.
And the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six of them, chasing them from the gate as far as the quarries and striking them down on the slopes. So the hearts of the people melted and became like water.
6 И растерза Иисус ризы своя, и паде на земли на лице свое пред Господем даже до вечера, сам и старцы Израилевы: и посыпаша персть на главы своя.
Then Joshua tore his clothes and fell facedown before the ark of the LORD until evening, as did the elders of Israel; and they all sprinkled dust on their heads.
7 И рече Иисус: молюся, Господи Господи, вскую преведе раб Твой люди сия чрез Иордан предати их Аморреом на погубление? От, да быхом пребыли и вселилися у Иордана:
“O, Lord GOD,” Joshua said, “why did You ever bring this people across the Jordan to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to be destroyed? If only we had been content to stay on the other side of the Jordan!
8 Господи, что реку? Понеже отврати Израиль выю свою пред враги своими:
O Lord, what can I say, now that Israel has turned its back and run from its enemies?
9 и услышав Хананей и вси живущии на земли обыдут нас и потребят нас от земли: и что сотвориши имени Твоему великому?
When the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will surround us and wipe out our name from the earth. Then what will You do for Your great name?”
10 И рече Господь ко Иисусу: востани, вскую ты пал еси на лице твое?
But the LORD said to Joshua, “Stand up! Why have you fallen on your face?
11 Согрешиша людие и преступиша завет Мой, егоже завещах к ним, и украдше от клятвы, скрыша в сосудех своих:
Israel has sinned; they have transgressed My covenant that I commanded them, and they have taken some of what was devoted to destruction. Indeed, they have stolen and lied, and they have put these things with their own possessions.
12 сего ради не могут сынове Израилевы стати пред лицем врагов своих, но хребет обратят пред враги своими, яко клятвою сташася: не приложу ксему быти с вами, аще не измете клятвы от себе самих:
This is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies. They will turn their backs and run from their enemies, because they themselves have been set apart for destruction. I will no longer be with you unless you remove from among you whatever is devoted to destruction.
13 востав очисти люди и рцы: очиститеся на утро: яко сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: клятва есть в вас, не возможете стати пред враги вашими, дондеже измете от себе самих клятву:
Get up and consecrate the people, saying, ‘Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, for this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Among you, O Israel, there are things devoted to destruction. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove them.
14 и соберитеся вси заутра по племеном (вашым), и будет племя, еже покажет Господь, да приведете по сонмом: и сонм, егоже покажет Господь, да приведете по домом: и дом, егоже покажет Господь, да приведете по мужем:
In the morning you must present yourselves tribe by tribe. The tribe that the LORD selects shall come forward clan by clan, and the clan that the LORD selects shall come forward family by family, and the family that the LORD selects shall come forward man by man.
15 и иже обличится, да сожжется огнем, сам и вся елика суть его, яко преступи завет Господень и сотвори беззаконие во Израили.
The one who is caught with the things devoted to destruction must be burned, along with all that belongs to him, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD and committed an outrage in Israel.’”
16 И воста Иисус заутра, и приведе людий по племеном: и обличися племя Иудино.
So Joshua arose early the next morning and had Israel come forward tribe by tribe, and the tribe of Judah was selected.
17 И приведеся по сонмом, и обличися сонм Зараин: и приведеся сонм Зараин по мужем, и обличися дом Замвриин.
He had the clans of Judah come forward, and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He had the clan of the Zerahites come forward, and the family of Zabdi was selected.
18 И приведеся дом его по мужем, и обличися Ахар сын Хармиин сына Замвриина, сына Зараня, от племене Иудина.
And he had the family of Zabdi come forward man by man, and Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was selected.
19 И рече Иисус Ахару: сыне мой, даждь славу днесь Господу Богу Израилеву, и даждь Ему исповедание, и исповеждь ми, что сотворил еси, и не утай от мене.
So Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the LORD, the God of Israel, and make a confession to Him. I urge you to tell me what you have done; do not hide it from me.”
20 И отвеща Ахар Иисусу и рече: поистинне аз согреших пред Господем Богом Израилевым: сице и сице сотворих:
“It is true,” Achan replied, “I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel. This is what I did:
21 видех в плене ризу красну и добру и двести дидрахм сребра, и сосуд един злат, пятьдесят дидрахм вес его: и помыслив на ня взях: и се, сия сокровенна суть в земли в кущи моей, и сребро сокровенно под ними.
When I saw among the spoils a beautiful cloak from Shinar, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. They are hidden in the ground inside my tent, with the silver underneath.”
22 И посла Иисус послы, и идоша в кущу в полк: и сия бяху сокровенна в кущи его, и сребро под ними,
So Joshua sent messengers who ran to the tent, and there it all was, hidden in his tent, with the silver underneath.
23 и изнесоша я из кущи, и принесоша ко Иисусу и к старцем Израилевым, и положиша я пред Господем.
They took the things from inside the tent, brought them to Joshua and all the Israelites, and spread them out before the LORD.
24 И взя Иисус Ахара сына Зараня, и сребро и ризу и сосуд златый, и возведе его в дебрь Ахор, и сыны его и дщери его, и телцы его и ослята его и вся овцы его, и кущу его и вся имения его, и весь Израиль по нем: и возведе я (со всем) во емек Ахор.
Then Joshua, together with all Israel, took Achan son of Zerah, the silver, the cloak, the bar of gold, his sons and daughters, his oxen and donkeys and sheep, his tent, and everything else he owned, and brought them to the Valley of Achor.
25 И рече Иисус Ахару: почто потребил еси нас? Да потребит тя Господь, якоже и днесь. И побиша его камением весь Израиль, и сожгоша вся огнем, и наметаша их камением,
“Why have you brought this trouble upon us?” said Joshua. “Today the LORD will bring trouble upon you!” And all Israel stoned him to death. Then they stoned the others and burned their bodies.
26 и наметаша на нем громаду камения велику. И преста Господь от ярости гнева Своего. Сего ради прозвася имя месту тому емек Ахор даже до дне сего.
And they heaped over Achan a large pile of rocks that remains to this day. So the LORD turned from His burning anger. Therefore that place is called the Valley of Achor to this day.
