Now these are the nations which the Lord kept in the land for the purpose of testing Israel by them, all those who had had no experience of all the wars of Canaan; | Вот те народы, которых оставил Господь, чтобы искушать ими Израильтян, всех, которые не знали о всех войнах Ханаанских, -- |
Only because of the generations of the children of Israel, for the purpose of teaching them war--only those who up till then had no experience of it; | для того только, чтобы знали и учились войне последующие роды сынов Израилевых, которые прежде не знали ее: |
The five chiefs of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites and the Zidonians and the Hivites living in Mount Lebanon, from the mountain Baal-hermon as far as Hamath: | пять владельцев Филистимских, все Хананеи, Сидоняне и Евеи, живущие на горе Ливане, от горы Ваал-Ермона до входа в Емаф. |
For the purpose of testing Israel by them, to see if they would give ear to the orders of the Lord, which he had given to their fathers by the hand of Moses. | Они были [оставлены], чтобы искушать ими Израильтян и узнать, повинуются ли они заповедям Господним, которые Он заповедал отцам их чрез Моисея. |
Now the children of Israel were living among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites: | И жили сыны Израилевы среди Хананеев, Хеттеев, Аморреев, Ферезеев, Евеев, и Иевусеев, |
And they took as wives the daughters of these nations and gave their daughters to their sons, and became servants to their gods. | и брали дочерей их себе в жены, и своих дочерей отдавали за сыновей их, и служили богам их. |
And the children of Israel did evil in the eyes of the Lord, and put out of their minds the Lord their God, and became servants to the Baals and the Astartes. | И сделали сыны Израилевы злое пред очами Господа, и забыли Господа Бога своего, и служили Ваалам и Астартам. |
So the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of Cushan-rishathaim, king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel were his servants for eight years. | И воспылал гнев Господень на Израиля, и предал их в руки Хусарсафема, царя Месопотамского, и служили сыны Израилевы Хусарсафему восемь лет. |
And when the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord, he gave them a saviour, Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. | Тогда возопили сыны Израилевы к Господу, и воздвигнул Господь спасителя сынам Израилевым, который спас их, Гофониила, сына Кеназа, младшего брата Халевова. |
And the spirit of the Lord came on him and he became judge of Israel, and went out to war, and the Lord gave up Cushan-rishathaim, king of Mesopotamia, into his hands and he overcame him. | На нем был Дух Господень, и был он судьею Израиля. Он вышел на войну, и предал Господь в руки его Хусарсафема, царя Месопотамского, и преодолела рука его Хусарсафема. |
Then for forty years the land had peace, till the death of Othniel, the son of Kenaz. | И покоилась земля сорок лет. И умер Гофониил, сын Кеназа. |
Then the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord made Eglon, king of Moab, strong against Israel, because they had done evil in the Lord's eyes. | Сыны Израилевы опять стали делать злое пред очами Господа, и укрепил Господь Еглона, царя Моавитского, против Израильтян, за то, что они делали злое пред очами Господа. |
And Eglon got together the people of Ammon and Amalek, and they went and overcame Israel and took the town of palm-trees. | Он собрал к себе Аммонитян и Амаликитян, и пошел и поразил Израиля, и овладели они городом Пальм. |
And the children of Israel were servants to Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years. | И служили сыны Израилевы Еглону, царю Моавитскому, восемнадцать лет. |
Then when the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord, he gave them a saviour, Ehud, the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a left-handed man; and the children of Israel sent an offering by him to Eglon, king of Moab. | Тогда возопили сыны Израилевы к Господу, и Господь воздвигнул им спасителя Аода, сына Геры, сына Иеминиева, который был левша. И послали сыны Израилевы с ним дары Еглону, царю Моавитскому. |
So Ehud made himself a two-edged sword, a cubit long, which he put on at his right side under his robe. | Аод сделал себе меч с двумя остриями, длиною в локоть, и припоясал его под плащом своим к правому бедру, |
And he took the offering to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man. | и поднес дары Еглону, царю Моавитскому; Еглон же был человек очень тучный. |
And after giving the offering, he sent away the people who had come with the offering. | Когда поднес [Аод] все дары и проводил людей, принесших дары, |
But he himself, turning back from the stone images at Gilgal, said, I have something to say to you in secret, O king. And he said, Let there be quiet. Then all those who were waiting before him went out. | то сам возвратился от истуканов, которые в Галгале, и сказал: у меня есть тайное слово до тебя, царь. Он сказал: тише! И вышли от него все стоявшие при нем. |
Then Ehud came in to him while he was seated by himself in his summer-house. And Ehud said, I have a word from God for you. And he got up from his seat. | Аод вошел к нему: он сидел в прохладной горнице, которая была у него отдельно. И сказал Аод: у меня есть до тебя, слово Божие. [Еглон] встал со стула. |
And Ehud put out his left hand, and took the sword from his right side, and sent it into his stomach; | Аод простер левую руку свою и взял меч с правого бедра своего и вонзил его в чрево его, |
And the hand-part went in after the blade, and the fat was joined up over the blade; for he did not take the sword out of his stomach. And he went out into the ... | так что вошла за острием и рукоять, и тук закрыл острие, ибо Аод не вынул меча из чрева его, и он прошел в задние части. |
Then Ehud went out into the covered way, shutting the doors of the summer-house on him and locking them. | И вышел Аод в преддверие, и затворил за собою двери горницы, и замкнул. |
Now when he had gone, the king's servants came, and saw that the doors of the summer-house were locked; and they said, It may be that he is in his summer-house for a private purpose. | Когда он вышел, рабы [Еглона] пришли и видят, вот, двери горницы замкнуты, и говорят: верно он для нужды в прохладной комнате. |
And they went on waiting till they were shamed, but the doors were still shut; so they took the key, and, opening them, saw their lord stretched out dead on the floor. | Ждали довольно долго, но видя, что никто не отпирает дверей горницы, взяли ключ и отперли, и вот, господин их лежит на земле мертвый. |
But Ehud had got away while they were waiting and had gone past the stone images and got away to Seirah. | Пока они недоумевали, Аод между тем ушел, прошел мимо истуканов и спасся в Сеираф. |
And when he came there, he had a horn sounded in the hill-country of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he at their head. | Придя же вострубил трубою на горе Ефремовой, и сошли с ним сыны Израилевы с горы, и он [шел] впереди их. |
And he said to them, Come after me; for the Lord has given the Moabites, your haters, into your hands. So they went down after him and took the crossing-places of Jordan against Moab, and let no one go across. | И сказал им: идите за мною, ибо предал Господь врагов ваших Моавитян в руки ваши. И пошли за ним, и перехватили переправу через Иордан к Моаву, и не давали никому переходить. |
At that time they put about ten thousand men of Moab to the sword, every strong man and every man of war; not a man got away. | И побили в то время Моавитян около десяти тысяч человек, всё здоровых и сильных, и никто не убежал. |
So Moab was broken that day under the hand of Israel. And for eighty years the land had peace. | Так смирились в тот день Моавитяне пред Израилем, и покоилась земля восемьдесят лет. |
And after him came Shamgar, the son of Anath, who put to death six hundred Philistines with an ox-stick; and he was another saviour of Israel. | После него был Самегар, сын Анафов, который шестьсот человек Филистимлян побил воловьим рожном; и он также спас Израиля. |
