1 И҆ бы́сть гла́дъ на землѝ во дни̑ даві́дѡвы трѝ лѣ̑та, лѣ́то по лѣ́тꙋ. И҆ вопросѝ даві́дъ лица̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ, и҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: над̾ саꙋ́ломъ и҆ над̾ до́момъ є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆би́да въ сме́рти крове́й є҆гѡ̀, поне́же ᲂу҆мертвѝ гаваѡні́ты.
1 There was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David sought the face of Yahweh. Yahweh said, “It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”
2 И҆ призва̀ ца́рь даві́дъ гаваѡні́ты и҆ речѐ къ ни̑мъ: и҆ гаваѡні́тѧне не сꙋ́ть сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы, но то́кмѡ ѿ ѡ҆ста́ткѡвъ а҆морре́йскихъ, и҆ сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы клѧ́шасѧ и҆̀мъ: саꙋ́лъ же взыска̀ порази́ти ѧ҆̀, внегда̀ поревнова́ти є҆мꙋ̀ по сынѣ́хъ і҆и҃левыхъ и҆ і҆ꙋ́диныхъ.
2 The king called the Gibeonites and said to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the children of Israel had sworn to them; and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah);
3 И҆ речѐ даві́дъ ко гаваѡні́тѧнѡмъ: что̀ сотворю̀ ва́мъ; и҆ чи́мъ ᲂу҆молю̀, да благословитѐ достоѧ́нїе гдⷭ҇не;
3 and David said to the Gibeonites, “What should I do for you? And with what should I make atonement, that you may bless Yahweh’s inheritance?”
4 И҆ рѣ́ша є҆мꙋ̀ гаваѡні́тѧне: нѣ́сть на́мъ сребра̀ и҆лѝ зла́та со саꙋ́ломъ и҆ съ до́момъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ нѣ́сть на́мъ мꙋ́жа ᲂу҆мертви́ти ѿ всегѡ̀ і҆и҃лѧ. И҆ речѐ: что̀ вы̀ глаго́лете, и҆ сотворю̀ ва́мъ;
4 The Gibeonites said to him, “It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” He said, “I will do for you whatever you say.”
5 И҆ рѣ́ша ко царю̀: мꙋ̑жа, и҆́же совершѝ над̾ на́ми и҆ погна́ ны, и҆́же ᲂу҆мы́сли потреби́ти ны̀, потреби́мъ є҆го̀, да не бꙋ́детъ во всѣ́хъ предѣ́лѣхъ і҆и҃левыхъ:
5 They said to the king, “The man who consumed us and who plotted against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 дади́те на́мъ се́дмь мꙋже́й ѿ сынѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ повѣ́симъ и҆̀хъ на со́лнцѣ гдⷭ҇еви въ гаваѡ́нѣ саꙋ́ли и҆збра́нныхъ гдⷭ҇нихъ. И҆ речѐ ца́рь: а҆́зъ да́мъ.
6 let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Yahweh.” The king said, “I will give them.”
7 И҆ пощадѣ̀ ца́рь мемфївосѳе́а, сы́на і҆ѡнаѳа́нѧ сы́на саꙋ́лѧ, клѧ́твы ра́ди гдⷭ҇ни, ꙗ҆́же посредѣ̀ и҆́хъ и҆ посредѣ̀ даві́да и҆ посредѣ̀ і҆ѡнаѳа́на сы́на саꙋ́лѧ.
7 But the king spared Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of Yahweh’s oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 И҆ взѧ̀ ца́рь два̀ сы̑на ресфы̀ дще́ре а҆і́а, подло́жницы саꙋ́ли, и҆̀хже родѝ саꙋ́лꙋ, є҆рмѡні́а и҆ мемфївосѳе́а, и҆ пѧ́ть сынѡ́въ мелхо́лы дще́ре саꙋ́ли, и҆̀хже родѝ є҆сдрїи́лꙋ сы́нꙋ верзеллі́а моꙋлаѳі́ева,
8 But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 и҆ дадѐ и҆̀хъ въ рꙋ́ки гаваѡні́тѡмъ. И҆ повѣ́сиша ѧ҆̀ на со́лнцѣ на горѣ̀ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, и҆ падо́ша та́мѡ сі́и се́дмь вкꙋ́пѣ: ті́и же ᲂу҆мро́ша во дне́хъ жа́твы пе́рвыхъ, въ нача́лѣ жа́твы ꙗ҆чме́нѧ.
9 He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites; and they hanged them on the mountain before Yahweh, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 И҆ взѧ̀ ресфа̀ дщѝ а҆і́ина вре́тище, и҆ потчѐ є҆̀ себѣ̀ при ка́мени, въ нача́лѣ жа́твы ꙗ҆чме́нѧ, до́ндеже снидо́ша на ни́хъ во́ды бж҃їѧ съ небесѐ, и҆ не дадѐ пти́цамъ небє́снымъ дне́мъ почи́ти на ни́хъ, нижѐ ѕвѣрє́мъ зємны́мъ но́щїю.
10 Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 И҆ повѣ́даша даві́дꙋ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ ресфа̀ дще́рь а҆і́а, подло́жница саꙋ́лѧ. И҆ и҆стлѣ́ша, и҆ взѧ̀ ѧ҆̀ да́нъ сы́нъ і҆ѡ́й, и҆́же ѿ и҆сча́дїй и҆споли́новыхъ.
11 David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 И҆ и҆́де даві́дъ, и҆ взѧ̀ кѡ́сти саꙋ̑ли и҆ кѡ́сти і҆ѡнаѳа́на сы́на є҆гѡ̀ ѿ мꙋже́й сынѡ́въ і҆аві́са галаа́дскагѡ, и҆̀же ᲂу҆крадо́ша и҆̀хъ ѿ сто́гны веѳса́ни, занѐ повѣ́сиша и҆̀хъ та́мѡ и҆ноплемє́нницы въ де́нь, во́ньже порази́ша и҆ноплемє́нницы саꙋ́ла въ гелвꙋ́и.
12 So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 И҆ вознесѐ даві́дъ кѡ́сти саꙋ̑ли ѿтꙋ́дꙋ и҆ кѡ́сти і҆ѡнаѳа́на сы́на є҆гѡ̀, и҆ собра̀ кѡ́сти повѣ́шеныхъ на со́лнцѣ:
13 and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son. They also gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 и҆ погребо́ша кѡ́сти саꙋ̑ли и҆ кѡ́сти і҆ѡнаѳа́на сы́на є҆гѡ̀, и҆ кѡ́сти повѣ́шеныхъ на со́лнцѣ, въ землѝ венїамі́новѣ, при краѝ во гро́бѣ кі́са ѻ҆тца̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ сотвори́ша всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка заповѣ́да ца́рь. И҆ послꙋ́ша бг҃ъ землѝ по си́хъ.
14 They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father; and they performed all that the king commanded. After that, God answered prayer for the land.
15 И҆ бы́сть па́ки бра́нь и҆ноплеме́нникѡмъ со і҆и҃льтѧны. И҆ сни́де даві́дъ и҆ ѻ҆́троцы є҆гѡ̀ съ ни́мъ, и҆ би́шасѧ со и҆ноплемє́нники: и҆ ᲂу҆трꙋди́сѧ даві́дъ.
15 The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
16 И҆ і҆есві́й, и҆́же бѣ̀ ѿ внꙋ̑къ рафа́нихъ, (ᲂу҆ негѡ́же) бѣ̀ вѣ́съ копїѧ̀ є҆гѡ̀ три́ста сі̑кль вѣ́са мѣ́дѧна, и҆ то́й бѣ̀ препоѧ́санъ ѻ҆рꙋ́жїемъ, и҆ хотѧ́ше порази́ти даві́да.
16 and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, he being armed with a new sword, thought he would kill David.
17 И҆ помо́же є҆мꙋ̀ а҆ве́сса сы́нъ сарꙋ́инъ, и҆ и҆зба́ви даві́да а҆ве́сса, и҆ поразѝ и҆ноплеме́нника, и҆ ᲂу҆мертвѝ є҆го̀. Тогда̀ клѧ́шасѧ мꙋ́жїе даві́дѡвы, глаго́люще: не и҆зы́деши ктомꙋ̀ съ на́ми на бра́нь, да не ᲂу҆гаси́ши свѣти́льника і҆и҃лева.
17 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “Don’t go out with us to battle any more, so that you don’t quench the lamp of Israel.”
18 И҆ бы́сть по си́хъ є҆щѐ бра́нь въ ге́ѳѣ со и҆ноплемє́нники: тогда̀ поразѝ совохе́й и҆́же ѿ а҆со́ѳы сѡ́бранныѧ внꙋ́ки гїга́нтѡвы.
18 After this, there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 И҆ бы́сть па́ки бра́нь въ ро́мѣ со и҆ноплемє́нники: и҆ поразѝ є҆леана́нъ сы́нъ а҆рїѡргі́ма виѳлее́млѧнинъ голїа́ѳа и҆́же ѿ геѳѳе́а, и҆ дре́во копїѧ̀ є҆гѡ̀ бы́сть а҆́ки наво́й ткꙋ́щихъ.
19 There was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite’s brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 И҆ бы́сть па́ки бра́нь въ ге́ѳѣ: и҆ бѣ̀ мꙋ́жъ ѿ мадѡ́на, и҆ пе́рсты рꙋ́къ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ пе́рсты но́гъ є҆гѡ̀ по шестѝ, число́мъ два́десѧть четы́ри: и҆ то́й роди́сѧ ѿ рафы̀,
20 There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on every hand and six toes on every foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21 и҆ ᲂу҆ничижѝ і҆и҃лѧ: и҆ ᲂу҆бѝ є҆го̀ і҆ѡнаѳа́нъ сы́нъ сафа́ѧ бра́та даві́дова.
21 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, killed him.
22 Четы́ри сі́и роди́шасѧ внꙋ́цы гїга́нтѡвы рафѣ̀ въ ге́ѳѣ, и҆ падо́ша ѿ рꙋкꙋ̀ даві́дѡвꙋ и҆ ѿ рꙋкꙋ̀ рабѡ́въ є҆гѡ̀.
22 These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
