Книга Судей израилевых 19
1 И бысть в тыя дни не бяше царя во Израили: и бысть муж левитин живый во стране горы Ефремовы, и поя себе жену подложницу от Вифлеема Иудина:
And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the lower edge of the mountain of Ephraim, who took to himself a concubine out of Beth-lechem-judah.
2 и разгневася нань подложница его, и отиде от него в дом отца своего в Вифлеем Иудин, и бе тамо четыри месяцы:
And his concubine became faithless unto him, and she went away from him unto her father's house to Beth-lechem-judah, and was there one year and four months.
3 и воста муж ея и иде вслед ея глаголати в сердце ея, обратити ю к себе и привести паки к себе: и отрок его с ним, и двое ослят: она же введе его в дом отца своего:
And then her husband arose, and went after her, to speak friendly unto her, to bring her back; and he had his servant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
4 и виде его отец отроковицы и изыде с веселием во сретение его, и удержа его тесть его отец отроковицы, и пребысть с ним три дни, и ядоша и пиша, и спаша тамо.
And his father-in-law, the damsel's father, detained him; and he abode with him three days: and they ate and drank, and lodged there.
5 И бысть в день четвертый, и обутреша заутра, и воста поити. И рече отец отроковицы к зятю своему: укрепи сердце твое укрухом хлеба, и по сем пойдете.
And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart; but the damsel's father said unto his son-in-law, Comfort thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward can ye go your way.
6 И седоша, и ядоша оба вкупе и пиша. И рече отец отроковицы к мужу: иди ныне и преспи, и возблажает сердце твое.
And they sat down, and both of them ate together and drank; and the damsel's father said unto the man, Do consent, I pray thee, and tarry all night, and let thy heart be merry.
7 И воста муж поити: и понуди его тесть его, и седе, и пребысть тамо.
Still the man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he turned back and lodged there.
8 И воста рано в пятый день да идет. И рече отец отроковицы: укрепи убо сердце твое хлебом, и пребуди дондеже преклонится день. И ядоша и пиша оба.
And when he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart, the damsel's father said, Comfort thy heart, I pray thee, and tarry until the decline of the day: and both of them did eat.
9 И воста муж да идет сам и подложница его и отрок его. И рече ему тесть его отец отроковицы: се, уже преклонися день к вечеру, пребуди зде, и возблажает сердце твое, и обутреете утро в путь ваш, и отидеши в селение свое.
And when the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the damsel's father, said unto him, Behold, now the day draweth toward evening, tarry all night, I pray you: behold, it is the resting time of day, lodge here, and let thy heart be merry; and you may get early tomorrow on your way, and go then to thy tent.
10 И не изволи муж пребыти, и воста и отиде: и прииде даже прямо Иевусу, сей есть Иерусалим, и с ним двое ослят с бремены, и подложница его с ним.
But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and went away, and came as far as opposite Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and he had with him two saddled asses, and his concubine also was with him.
11 И приидоша до Иевуса, и день преклонися к вечеру зело: и рече отрок ко господину своему: гряди убо, да уклонимся во град сей Иевус и пребудем в нем.
When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn in unto this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.
12 И рече к нему господин его: не уклонимся во град чуждь, в немже несть от сынов Израилевых, но прейдем до Гаваона.
And his master said unto him, We will not turn into one of the cities of the stranger, that are not belonging to the children of Israel; but we will pass on as far as Gib'ah.
13 И рече ко отроку своему: гряди, да приступим ко единому от мест Гаваонских и пребудем в Гаваоне или в Раме.
And he said unto his servant, Come, and let us draw near to one of these places; and let us lodge all night in Gib'ah, or in Ramah.
14 И минуша, и идоша, и зайде им солнце близ Гаваона, иже есть Вениаминь:
And they passed on and went forward; and the sun went down unto them by Gib'ah, which belongeth to Benjamin.
15 и уклонишася тамо внити превитати в Гаваоне, и внидоша и седоша на стогнах града: и не бе муж вводяй их в дом превитати.
And they turned aside thither, to go in to lodge in Gib'ah; and when he went in, he sat down in the street of the city; for there was no man that brought them into his house to lodge.
16 И се, муж стар идяше с дела своего из поля в вечер, и сей муж от горы Ефремли, и той обиташе в Гаваоне: и мужие места сынове Вениамини.
And, behold, an old man was coming from his work out of the field at evening, and this man was from the mountain of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gib'ah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
17 И возвед очи свои, виде мужа путника на стогнах градных, и рече муж старец: камо идеши и откуду грядеши?
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city: and then said the old man, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?
18 И рече к нему: грядем мы от Вифлеема Иудина даже до стран горы Ефремли, отюнудуже аз есмь: и ходих до Вифлеема Иудина, и иду аз в дом мой: и несть мужа вводящаго мя в дом:
And he said unto him, We are passing from Beth-lechem-judah toward the lower edge of the mountain of Ephraim; from there am I, and I went as far as Beth-lechem-judah; but I am going to the house of the Lord; and there is no man that bringeth me into his house.
19 а плевы и пища ослятом нашым есть, и мне хлеб и вино есть, и отроковице и отроку: рабом твоим несть скудно ни коея вещи.
Yet there is both straw and provender for our asses; and there are also bread and wine for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man who is with thy servants; there is no want of any thing.
20 И рече муж стар: мир тебе: и весь недостаток твой на мне, обаче на стогнах не лязи.
And the old man said, Peace be with thee; only let all thy wants lie upon me; at least lodge not in the street.
21 И введе его в дом свой, и даде место ослятом его: и омыша ноги своя, и ядоша и пиша.
So he brought him to his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and they ate and drank.
22 Егда же возвеселися сердце их, и се, мужие градстии сынове беззаконников обыдоша дом биюще в двери, и реша мужу господину дому старцу, глаголюще: изведи мужа иже вниде в дом твой, да познаем его.
As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, worthless people, beset the house round about, knocking at the door; and they said to the master of the house, the old man, thus, Bring forth the man that in come to thy house, that we may know him.
23 И изыде к ним муж господин дому и рече: ни, братия, не сотворите зла мужу сему повнегда внити ему в дом мой, и не сотворите безумия сего:
And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, No, my brethren, I pray you, act not wickedly; since this man is once come into my house, do not this scandalous thing.
24 се, дщерь моя дева, и подложница его: изведу их, и смирите их, и сотворите им еже благо пред очима вашима: а мужу сему не сотворите словесе безумия сего.
Behold, here is my daughter a virgin, and his concubine; let me bring them out now, and humble ye them, and do to them what seemeth good in your eyes; but unto this man do not this scandalous thing.
25 И не изволиша мужие послушати его. И взя муж подложницу его и изведе ю к ним вон: и познаша ю и ругашася над нею всю нощь даже до утра, и отпустиша ю, егда взыде денница.
But the men would not hearken to him; so the man took hold of his concubine, and brought her forth unto them into the street; and they knew her, and ill-used her all the night until the morning; and they let her go when the day began to dawn.
26 И прииде жена к заутрию, и паде у дверий дому, идеже бяше муж ея, до разсветания.
Then came the woman [home] in the early part of the morning, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, [and lay] till it was light.
27 И воста муж ея заутра, и отверзе двери дому и изыде поити в путь свой: и се, жена его подложница лежаше при дверех дому, и руце ея на преддверии.
And when her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go on his way: behold, the woman, his concubine, was lying at the door of the house, with her hands upon the threshold.
28 И рече к ней: востани, да идем. И не отвеща ему, бяше бо мертва. И возложи ю на осля, и воста муж и пойде на место свое.
And he said unto her, Rise up, and let us be going; but no one answered. Then he took her upon the ass, and the man rose up, and went unto his place.
29 И прииде в дом свой, и взя нож, и взя подложницу свою, и раздроби ю по удесем ея на дванадесять частей, и посла я во вся племена Израилева.
And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, according to her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her about in all the territory of Israel.
30 И бысть всяк видящий глаголаше: не бысть, ни видено бе сице от дне изшествия сынов Израилевых от земли Египетския даже до дне сего. И заповеда мужем, ихже посла, глаголя: сице глаголите ко всему Израилю: аще бысть по словеси сему? Уставите сами себе о ней совет и глаголите.
And it happened, that whoever saw it said, There hath no such deed been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day: reflect well on it, give advice, and speak.
