< Книга Судей израилевых 12 >
1 И собрашася мужие Ефремли и приидоша в Сефину, и реша Иеффаю: почто ходил еси ополчитися на сыны Аммони, и нас не позвал еси ити с тобою? Дом твой с тобою сожжем огнем.
The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
2 И рече к ним Иеффай: имех прю аз и людие мои, и сынове Аммони оскорбиша мене зело: и воззвах вас, и не избависте мене от руки их:
Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn’t save me out of their hand.
3 и видех, яко не бяше спасающаго, и положих душу мою в руку мою, и приидох к сыном Аммоним, и предаде я Господь в руку мою: и вскую приидосте ко мне днесь, ополчити ли ся на мя?
When I saw that you didn’t save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
4 И собра Иеффай вся мужы Галаадски и ополчися на Ефрема: и избиша мужие Галаадстии Ефрема, понеже глаголаху: уцелевшии от Ефрема, вы Галаад среде Ефрема и среде Манассии.
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
5 И засяде Галаад проходы у Иордана Ефремовы. И бысть егда реша уцелевшии от Ефрема: прейдем: и рекоша им мужие Галаадстии: еда ли от Ефрема вы? И реша: несмы.
The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
6 И реша им: рцыте, клас. И не управиша рещи тако: и имаху их, и закалаху у преходов Иорданих: и падоша в то время от Ефрема четыредесять и две тысящы.
then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he couldn’t manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
7 И суди Иеффай Израилеви лет шесть: и умре Иеффай Галаадитин, и погребен бысть во граде своем в Галааде.
Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in the cities of Gilead.
8 И суди по нем Израилеви Есевон от Вифлеема:
After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
9 и быша ему тридесять сыны и тридесять дщери, яже отдаде вон (мужем), и тридесять жен приведе сыном своим отвне: и суди Израилеви седмь лет:
He had thirty sons. He sent his thirty daughters outside his clan, and he brought in thirty daughters from outside his clan for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
10 и умре Есевон, и погребен бысть в Вифлееме.
Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
11 И суди по нем Израилеви Елон Завулонянин десять лет:
After him, Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
12 и умре Елон Завулонянин, и погребен бысть во Елиме в земли Завулони.
Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
13 И суди по нем Израилеви Авдон сын Еллихов Фарафонитин:
After him, Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
14 и быша ему четыредесять сынове и тридесять внуцы, ездящии на седмидесяти ослех: и суди Израилеви осмь лет:
He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.
15 и умре Авдон сын Еллихов Фарафонитин, и погребен бысть в Фарафоне, в земли Ефремли, в горе Амаликове.
Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
