¹

And it came to pass when David and his men had entered Sekelac on the third day, that Amalec had made an incursion upon the south, and upon Sekelac, and smitten Sekelac, and burnt it with fire.

¹

И҆ бы́сть приходѧ́щꙋ даві́дꙋ и҆ мꙋжє́мъ є҆гѡ̀ къ секела́гꙋ въ де́нь тре́тїй, и҆ а҆мали́къ нападѐ на ю҆́жнꙋю странꙋ̀ и҆ на секела́гъ, и҆ поразѝ секела́гъ и҆ сожжѐ є҆го̀ ѻ҆гне́мъ:

²

And as to the women and all things that were in it, great and small, they slew neither man nor woman, but carried them captives, and went on their way.

²

же́нъ же и҆ всѣ́хъ сꙋ́щихъ въ не́мъ ѿ ма́ла до вели́ка не оу҆мертви́ша мꙋ́жа ни жены̀, но плѣни́ша, и҆ ѿидо́ша въ пꙋ́ть сво́й.

³

And David and his men came into the city, and, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were carried captive.

³

И҆ прїи́де даві́дъ и҆ мꙋ́жїе є҆гѡ̀ во гра́дъ, и҆ сѐ, сожже́нъ бѧ́ше ѻ҆гне́мъ, жєны́ же и҆́хъ и҆ сы́нове и҆́хъ и҆ дщє́ри и҆́хъ плѣне́ни бы́ша.

⁴

And David and his men lifted up their voice, and wept till there was no longer any power within them to weep.

⁴

И҆ воздви́же даві́дъ и҆ мꙋ́жїе є҆гѡ̀ гла́съ сво́й и҆ пла́кашасѧ до́ндеже не бѣ̀ въ ни́хъ си́лы ктомꙋ̀ пла́катисѧ.

⁵

And both the wives of David were carried captive, Achinaam the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.

⁵

И҆ жєны̀ ѻ҆́бѣ даві́дѡвы плѣне́ни бы́ша, а҆хїнаа́мъ і҆езраилі́тынѧ, и҆ а҆вїге́а бы́вшаѧ жена̀ нава́ла карми́лскагѡ.

⁶

And David was greatly distressed, because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, each for his sons and his daughters: but David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.

⁶

И҆ ѡ҆скорбѣ̀ даві́дъ ѕѣлѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ совѣща́шасѧ лю́дїе ка́менїемъ поби́ти є҆го̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ скорбна̀ бѧ́ше дꙋша̀ всѣ́хъ люді́й коегѡ́ждо ѡ҆ сынѣ́хъ свои́хъ и҆ ѡ҆ дще́рехъ свои́хъ. И҆ оу҆крѣпи́сѧ даві́дъ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ бз҃ѣ свое́мъ,

⁷

And David said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech, Bring near the ephod.

⁷

и҆ речѐ даві́дъ ко а҆вїа́ѳарꙋ і҆ере́ю сы́нꙋ а҆вїмеле́ховꙋ: принесѝ є҆фꙋ́дъ. И҆ принесѐ а҆вїа́ѳаръ є҆фꙋ́дъ къ даві́дꙋ.

⁸

And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? and he said to him, Pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them, and thou shalt surely rescue the captives.

⁸

И҆ вопросѝ даві́дъ гдⷭ҇а, глаго́лѧ: поженꙋ́ ли в̾слѣ́дъ по́лчища сегѡ̀; и҆ пости́гнꙋ ли и҆̀хъ; И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь: гонѝ, ꙗ҆́кѡ постиза́ѧ пости́гнеши и҆̀хъ и҆ и҆збавлѧ́ѧ и҆зба́виши.

⁹

So David went, he and the six hundred men with him, and they come as far as the brook Bosor, and the superfluous ones stopped.

⁹

И҆ и҆́де даві́дъ са́мъ и҆ ше́сть сѡ́тъ мꙋже́й съ ни́мъ, и҆ прїидо́ша да́же до пото́ка восо́рска, про́чїи же ѡ҆ста́шасѧ:

¹⁰

And he pursued them with four hundred men; and there remained behind two hundred men, who tarried on the other side of the brook Bosor.

¹⁰

и҆ гна̀ съ четы́рми сты̀ мꙋже́й, двѣ́сти же мꙋже́й ѡ҆ста́шасѧ, и҆̀же сѣдо́ша ѡ҆б̾ ѡ҆́нъ по́лъ пото́ка восо́рска.

¹¹

And they find an Egyptian in the field, and they take him, and bring him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they caused him to drink water.

¹¹

И҆ ѡ҆брѣто́ша мꙋ́жа є҆гѵ́птѧнина на селѣ̀, и҆ ꙗ҆́ша є҆го̀, и҆ приведо́ша є҆го̀ къ даві́дꙋ, и҆ да́ша є҆мꙋ̀ хлѣ́ба, и҆ ꙗ҆дѐ, и҆ напои́ша є҆го̀ водо́ю:

¹²

And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and he ate, and his spirit was restored in him; for he had not eaten bread, and had not drunk water three days and three nights.

¹²

и҆ да́ша є҆мꙋ̀ ча́сть смо́квей, и҆ ꙗ҆дѐ, и҆ оу҆крѣпи́сѧ дꙋ́хъ є҆гѡ̀ въ не́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ꙗ҆дѐ хлѣ́ба и҆ не пѝ воды̀ трѝ дни̑ и҆ трѝ но́щы.

¹³

And David said to him, Whose art thou? and whence art thou? and the young man the Egyptian said, I am the servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because I was taken ill three days ago.

¹³

И҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ даві́дъ: ѿкꙋ́дꙋ є҆сѝ, и҆ чі́й є҆сѝ ты̀; И҆ речѐ ѻ҆́трокъ є҆гѵ́птѧнинъ: а҆́зъ є҆́смь ра́бъ мꙋ́жа а҆маликі́тѧнина, и҆ ѡ҆ста́ви мѧ̀ господи́нъ мо́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆знемого́хъ дне́сь оу҆жѐ тре́тїй де́нь:

¹⁴

And we made an incursion on the south of the Chelethite, and on the parts of Judea, and on the south of Chelub, and we burnt Sekelac with fire.

¹⁴

и҆ мы̀ ходи́хомъ на ю҆́гъ до хеле́ѳї и҆ на і҆ꙋдє́йскїѧ страны̑ и҆ на гелвꙋ́й, и҆ секела́гꙋ пожго́хомъ ѻ҆гне́мъ.

¹⁵

And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? and he said, Swear now to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down upon this troop.

¹⁵

И҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ даві́дъ: доведе́ши ли мѧ̀ до по́лчища сегѡ̀; И҆ речѐ: клени́сѧ мѝ бг҃омъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ не оу҆бїе́ши мѧ̀ и҆ не преда́си мѧ̀ въ рꙋ́цѣ господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀, и҆ доведꙋ́ тѧ до по́лчища сегѡ̀.

¹⁶

So he brought him down thither, and behold, they were scattered abroad upon the surface of the whole land, eating and drinking, and feasting by reason of all the great spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.

¹⁶

(И҆ клѧ́тсѧ є҆мꙋ̀ даві́дъ:) и҆ приведѐ є҆го̀ ѻ҆на́мѡ, и҆ сѐ, ті́и разсѣ́ѧни бы́ша по лицꙋ̀ всеѧ̀ землѝ, ꙗ҆дꙋ́ще и҆ пїю́ще и҆ пра́зднꙋюще ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ коры́стехъ вели́кихъ, ꙗ҆̀же взѧ́ша ѿ землѝ и҆ноплеме́нничи и҆ ѿ землѝ і҆ꙋ́дины.

¹⁷

And David came upon them, and smote them from the morning till the evening, and on the next day; and not one of them escaped, except four hundred young men, who were mounted on camels, and fled.

¹⁷

И҆ прїи́де на ни́хъ даві́дъ, и҆ и҆збѝ и҆̀хъ ѿ оу҆́тра да́же до ве́чера и҆ наꙋ́трїе: и҆ не спасе́сѧ ѿ ни́хъ мꙋ́жъ, ра́звѣ четы́реста ѻ҆́трѡкъ, и҆̀же всѣдо́ша на велблю́ды и҆ оу҆бѣжа́ша.

¹⁸

And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued both his wives.

¹⁸

И҆ ѿѧ̀ даві́дъ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка взѧ́ша а҆маликі́ты, и҆ ѻ҆́бѣ жєны̀ своѧ̑ ѿѧ̀,

¹⁹

And nothing was wanting to them of great or small, either of the spoils, or the sons and daughters, or anything that they had taken of theirs; and David recovered all.

¹⁹

и҆ не поги́бе и҆̀мъ ѿ ма́ла да́же до вели́ка, и҆ ѿ коры́стей, и҆ да́же до сынѡ́въ и҆ дще́рей и҆ да́же до всѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же взѧ́ша, и҆ всѧ̑ возвратѝ даві́дъ:

²⁰

And he took all the flocks, and the herds, and led them away before the spoils: and it was said of these spoils, These are the spoils of David.

²⁰

и҆ взѧ̀ даві́дъ всѧ̑ стада̀ и҆ па̑ствины, и҆ погна̀ пред̾ плѣ́номъ: и҆ плѣ́нъ ѻ҆́ный нарица́шесѧ се́й плѣ́нъ даві́довъ.

²¹

And David comes to the two hundred men who were left behind that they should not follow after David, and he had caused them to remain by the brook of Bosor; and they came forth to meet David, and to meet his people with him: and David drew near to the people, and they asked him how he did.

²¹

И҆ прїи́де даві́дъ къ двѣма̀ стѡ́мъ мꙋжє́мъ ѡ҆ста́вшымсѧ и҆тѝ в̾слѣ́дъ даві́да, и҆̀хже посадѝ на пото́цѣ восо́рстѣ, и҆ и҆зыдо́ша на срѣ́тенїе даві́дꙋ и҆ на срѣ́тенїе лю́демъ и҆̀же съ ни́мъ: и҆ прїи́де даві́дъ до люді́й, и҆ вопроси́ша є҆го̀ ѡ҆ ми́рныхъ.

²²

Then every ill-disposed and bad man of the soldiers who had gone with David, answered and said, Because they did not pursue together with us, we will not give them of the spoils which we have recovered, only let each one lead away with him his wife and his children, and let them return.

²²

И҆ ѿвѣща́ша всѝ мꙋ́жїе па́гꙋбнїи и҆ лꙋка́внїи ѿ мꙋже́й ра́тныхъ ходи́вшихъ съ даві́домъ и҆ рѣ́ша: ꙗ҆́кѡ не гони́ша съ на́ми, не дади́мъ и҆̀мъ ѿ плѣ́на, є҆го́же взѧ́хомъ, но то́кмѡ кі́йждо женꙋ̀ свою̀ и҆ ча̑да своѧ̑ да во́змꙋтъ и҆ возвратѧ́тсѧ.

²³

And David said, Ye shall not do so, after the Lord has delivered the enemy to us, and guarded us, and the Lord has delivered into our hands the troop that came against us.

²³

И҆ речѐ даві́дъ: не сотвори́те, бра́тїѧ моѧ̑, та́кѡ, повнегда̀ предадѐ гдⷭ҇ь на́мъ и҆ сохранѝ на́съ, и҆ предадѐ гдⷭ҇ь по́лчище сїѐ наше́дшее на ны̀ въ рꙋ́ки на́шѧ:

²⁴

And who will hearken to these your words? for they are not inferior to us; for according to the portion of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the portion of him that abides with the baggage; they shall share alike.

²⁴

и҆ кто̀ послꙋ́шаетъ ва́шихъ слове́съ си́хъ; ꙗ҆́кѡ не мє́нши на́съ сꙋ́ть: поне́же по ча́сти и҆сходѧ́щагѡ на бра́нь, та́кѡ бꙋ́детъ ча́сть сѣдѧ́щагѡ при сосꙋ́дѣхъ, по томꙋ́жде раздѣлѧ́тсѧ.

²⁵

And it came to pass from that day forward, that it became an ordinance and a custom in Israel until this day.

²⁵

И҆ бы́сть ѿ днѐ тогѡ̀ и҆ вы́ше, и҆ бы́сть въ повелѣ́нїе и҆ на ѡ҆правда́нїе і҆и҃лю да́же до днѐ сегѡ̀.

²⁶

And David came to Sekelac, and sent of the spoils to the elders of Juda, and to his friends, saying, Behold some of the spoils of the enemies of the Lord;

²⁶

И҆ прїи́де даві́дъ въ секела́гъ, и҆ посла̀ старѣ́йшинамъ ѿ коры́стей і҆ꙋ́диныхъ и҆ и҆́скрєннимъ свои̑мъ, глаго́лѧ: сѐ, ва́мъ благослове́нїе ѿ коры́стей врагѡ́въ гдⷭ҇нихъ,

²⁷

to those in Bæthsur, and to those in Rama of the south, and to those in Gethor.

²⁷

сꙋ́щымъ въ веѳсꙋ́рѣ и҆ въ ра́мѣ ю҆́жнѣй и҆ въ геѳо́рѣ,

²⁸

And to those in Aroer, and to those in Ammadi, and to those in Saphi, and to those in Esthie, and to those in Geth, and to those in Cimath, and to those in Saphec, and to those in Themath,

²⁸

и҆ во а҆рои́рѣ и҆ во а҆мма́дѣ, и҆ во сафѣ̀ и҆ во є҆сѳі́фѣ и҆ въ ге́ѳѣ,

²⁹

and to those in Carmel, and to those in the cities of Jeremeel, and to those in the cities of the Kenezite;

²⁹

and to those in Jerimuth, and to those in Bersabee, and to those in Nombe,

³⁰

и҆ сꙋ́щымъ во і҆ерїмꙋ́ѳѣ и҆ во вирсаве́и и҆ въ номвѣ̀,

³¹

and to those in Chebron, and to all the places which David and his men had passed through.
