Книга Судей израилевых 20
1 И изыдоша вси сынове Израилевы, и собрашася весь сонм яко един муж, от Дана и до Вирсавии, и земля Галаадска к Господеви в Массифу,
Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to the LORD at Mizpah.
2 и сташа пред лицем Господним вся племена Израилева в сонме людий Божиих, четыреста тысящ мужей пеших воздвизающих оружия.
The leaders of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen who drew sword.
3 И услышаша сынове Вениамини, яко взыдоша сынове Израилевы в Массифу, и рекоша сынове Израилевы: глаголите, где бысть злоба сия?
(Now the people of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) The children of Israel said, "Tell us, how did this wickedness happen?"
4 И отвеща муж левитин, муж жены умореныя, глаголя: в Гаваон Вениаминь приидох аз и подложница моя витати:
The Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my secondary wife, to spend the night.
5 и восташа на мя мужие Гаваонстии и обыдоша мя во дворе нощию, и хотеша мя убити, и подложницу мою обидеша и обругаша, и умре:
And the leaders of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house at night. They intended to kill me, and they raped my secondary wife, and she is dead.
6 и взях подложницу мою и раздробих ю, и послах ю во вся пределы наследия Израилева, яко сотвориша безумие во Израили:
I took my secondary wife, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the territory of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed wickedness and disgrace in Israel.
7 се, вси вы сынове Израилевы, дадите себе слово и совет зде.
Look, you children of Israel, all of you, give your advice and counsel here."
8 И восташа вси людие яко един муж, глаголюще: не отидет муж в селение свое, и не возвратится муж в дом свой:
All the people arose as one man, saying, "None of us will go to his tent, neither will any of us return to his house.
9 и ныне слово сие, еже сотворим Гаваону: взыдем на него по жребию,
But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot;
10 токмо возмем по десяти мужей от ста во всех племенех Израилевых, и сто от тысящи, и тысяща от тмы, взяти брашно людем исходящым в Гаваю Вениаминю, сотворити ему по всему согрешению, еже сотвори во Израили.
and we will take ten men of one hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of one thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to get food for the people, those setting forth, that when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin they may repay all the disgrace that they have committed in Israel."
11 И собрашася вси мужие Израилевы ко граду, яко един муж из градов исходяще,
So all the men of Israel gathered against the city, united as one man.
12 и послаша племена Израилева мужей во все племя Вениамине, глаголюще: кая злоба сия бывшая в вас?
The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What wickedness is this that has happened among you?
13 И ныне дадите мужей беззаконных, иже в Гаваи, сынов велиаловых, и умертвим их, и очистим зло от Израиля. И не изволиша сынове Вениамини послушати гласа братии своея сынов Израилевых.
Now therefore deliver up the men, the wicked men who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel." But the sons of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.
14 И собрашася сынове Вениамини от градов своих в Гаваю, изыти на брань к сыном Израилевым.
The people of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
15 И сочтошася сынове Вениамини от градов в той день двадесять и пять тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружия, кроме живущих в Гаваи:
The people of Benjamin were numbered on that day out of the cities twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
16 ихже сочтеся седмь сот мужей избранных от всех людий ободесноручных: сии вси пращницы мещуще камение ко власу и не погрешающе.
Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men left-handed; everyone could sling stones at a hair and not miss.
17 И всех мужей Израилевых сочтеся, кроме сынов Вениаминовых, четыреста тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружие: вси сии мужие воини.
The men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men who drew sword: all these were men of war.
18 И восташа, и взыдоша в Вефиль, и вопросиша Бога, и рекоша сынове Израилевы: кто от нас взыдет в начале воевати на сыны Вениамини? И рече Господь: Иуда в начале да взыдет вождь.
The children of Israel arose, and went up to Bethel, and asked counsel of God; and they said, "Who shall go up for us first to battle against the people of Benjamin?" The LORD said, "Judah will go up first."
19 И восташа сынове Израилевы заутра и ополчишася на Гаваю.
The children of Israel rose up in the morning, and camped against Gibeah.
20 И изыде всяк муж Израилев на брань с Вениамином, и сразишася с ними мужие Израилевы на брани у Гаваи.
The men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah.
21 И изыдоша сынове Вениаминовы из Гаваи, и избиша во Израили в той день двадесять две тысящы мужей на земли.
The people of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites on that day twenty-two thousand men.
22 И укрепися всяк муж Израилев, и приложиша снитися на брань на место, идеже снидошася в день первый.
The people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day.
23 И взыдоша сынове Израилевы и плакашася пред Господем до вечера, и вопросиша Господа, глаголюще: аще приложим еще приступити на брань к сыном Вениаминим братиям нашым? И рече Господь: взыдите к ним.
The children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening; and they asked of the LORD, saying, "Shall I again draw near to battle against the people of Benjamin my brother?" The LORD said, "Go up against him."
24 И приидоша сынове Израилевы к сыном Вениаминим в день вторый.
The children of Israel came near against the people of Benjamin the second day.
25 И изыдоша сынове Вениамини противу им от Гаваи в день вторый, и избиша еще от сынов Израилевых осмьнадесять тысящ мужей на земли: сии вси воздвизающии оружие.
Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword.
26 И взыдоша вси сынове Израилевы и вси людие, и приидоша в Вефиль, и плакашася, и седоша тамо пред Господем, и постишася в той день даже до вечера:
Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until evening; and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
27 и вознесоша всесожжение спасения пред Господем, яко тамо кивот завета Господа Бога во дни оны,
The children of Israel asked of the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 и Финеес сын Елеазара сына Аароня предстоя пред ним в тыя дни. И вопросиша сынове Израилевы Господа, глаголюще: аще приложим взыти еще на брань к сыном Вениаминим братиям нашым, или оставим? И рече Господь: взыдите, заутра предам их в руки вашя.
and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), "Shall I yet again go out to battle against the people of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease?" The LORD said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand."
29 И поставиша сынове Израилевы подсаду окрест Гаваи.
Israel set ambushes all around Gibeah.
30 И взыдоша сынове Израилевы к сыном Вениаминим в день третий: и ополчишася на Гаваю яко единою и единою.
The children of Israel went up against the people of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
31 И изыдоша сынове Вениамини противу людем и протягошася из града, и начаша убивати людий уязвленых, якоже первое и второе на путех, от нихже есть един сходяй в Вефиль, а другий в Гаваю на селе, яко тридесять мужей во Израили.
The people of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike and kill some of the people, as at other times, on the highways, of which one goes up to Bethel, and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
32 И рекоша сынове Вениамини: падают пред нами якоже и прежде. И сынове Израилевы рекоша: побежим и отторгнем их от града на пути. И сотвориша тако.
The people of Benjamin said, "They are defeated before us, as previously." But the children of Israel said, "Let us flee, and draw them away from the city to the highways."
33 И вси мужие Израилевы восташа от места своего и снидошася в Ваал-Фамаре: подсада же Израилева нахождаше от места своего от запада Гаваи.
All the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Baal Tamar. And the men of Israel in ambush rushed out of their place west of Geba.
34 И приидоша противу Гаваи десять тысящ мужей избранных от всего Израиля, и брань бяше тяжка: и тии не разумеша, яко постизает их зло.
There came over against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was severe; but they didn't know that disaster was close upon them.
35 И порази Господь Вениамина пред сыны Израилевыми: и избиша сынове Израилевы от Вениамина в той день двадесять пять тысящ и сто мужей: сии вси воздвизаху оружие.
The LORD struck Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty-five thousand one hundred men: all armed with swords.
36 И видеша сынове Вениамини, яко поражени суть. И даша место сынове Израилевы Вениамину, понеже уповаша на подсаду, юже подсадиша у Гаваи:
So the people of Benjamin saw that they were defeated; for the men of Israel gave ground to Benjamin, because they trusted the ambushers whom they had set against Gibeah.
37 и подвижеся подсада, и устремися на Гаваю, и избиша весь град острием меча.
The ambushers hurried, and rushed on Gibeah; and the ambushers drew themselves along, and struck all the city with the edge of the sword.
38 И Израилтяне имяху знамение с подсадою брани, явити знамение дыма из града.
Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the ambushers was that they should make a great cloud of smoke rise up out of the city.
39 И возвратися Израиль на брань, и Вениамин нача убивати язвеных во Израили до тридесяти мужей, яко рекоша: паки падением падают пред нами, якоже и первая брань.
The men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to strike and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, "Surely they are defeated before us, as in the first battle."
40 И знамение взыде наипаче над градом, аки столп дыма: и озреся Вениамин вспять, и се, взыде скончание града до небеси.
But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and look, the whole city went up in smoke into the sky.
41 И муж Израилев возвратися: и потщашася мужие Вениамини, видеша бо, яко постиже их зло,
The men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were terrified; for they saw that disaster had come on them.
42 и побегоша пред сыны Израилевыми на путь пустыни, брань же постиже их, и иже из градов избиваша их среде себе:
Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in its midst.
43 и побиваху Вениамина, и гнаша его от Нуа вслед его до Гаваи без опочивания, и поразиша его даже противу Гаваи на восток солнца.
They surrounded Benjamin, and they pursued them from Nohah and overtook them near Gibeah toward the east.
44 И падоша от Вениамина осмьнадесять тысящ мужей, сии вси мужие сильнии.
There fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valor.
45 И озрешася оставшии, и побегоша в пустыню к каменю Реммоню: и пожаша от них сынове Израилевы по стезям яко стеблие пять тысящ мужей, и гнаша вслед их до Гадаама и избиша от них две тысящы мужей.
They turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon: and they killed on the highways five thousand men, and followed hard after them to Gidom, and struck down two thousand men.
46 И быти всех падших от Вениамина в той день двадесять пять тысящ мужей воздвизающих оружие, вси сии мужие сильнии.
So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand swordsmen; all these were valiant fighters.
47 И озрешася оставшии, и вбегоша в пустыню к каменю Реммоню шесть сот мужей, и седеша в камени Реммони четыри месяцы.
But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and stayed in the rock of Rimmon four months.
48 Сынове же Израилевы возвратишася к сыном Вениаминим, и избиша я оружием от града вне, даже и до скота, и все еже обретеся во всех градех, и грады вся обретшыяся пожгоша огнем.
The men of Israel turned again on the people of Benjamin, and struck them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city, and the livestock, and all that they found: moreover all the cities which they found they set on fire.
