¹

Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of the reign of Ezekias, that Sennacherim, king of the Assyrians, came up against the strong cities of Judea, and took them.

¹

И бы'сть в четве'ртоена'десяте лᲇто црsтвђ'ющђ е^зекїи. вꙁы'иде сенахери'мъ цр~ь а^сљ=рїискъ, на гра'ды тве'рды жидо'в#ски, и^ вꙁя` я&.

²

And the king of the Assyrians sent Rabsaces out of Laches to Jerusalem to king Ezekias with a large force: and he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the way of the fuller's field.

²

и^ посла` цр~ь а^сљ=рїискъ раўа'ка эT лахи'съ въ і^ерsлимъ къ цр~ю е^ꙁекїи съ си'лою вели'кою, и^ ста` ё^ веде'нїя воDнаго, кђ'пњли вы'шняа, на пђти` села` гнаџе'ѓва”

³

And there went forth to him Heliakim the steward, the son of Chelcias, and Somnas the scribe, and Joach the son of Asaph, the recorder.

³

І$ и^ꙁы'иде к немђ е^лїаки'мъ сн~ъ хел#кїевъ сам#чїи, и^ съмна'съ кни'гъчїи, і^ и^ѓ^а'хъ а^са'фовъ па'мятопи'счїи”

⁴

And Rabsaces said to them, Say to Ezekias, Thus says the great king, the king of the Assyrians, Why art thou secure?

⁴

И$ рече и^мъ раўа'къ, р#цњте е^ꙁекїи. се гл~етᲆ цр~ь вели'кїи, цр~ь а^сљ=рїискъ, чимъ ё^пова'яи е^си,

⁵

Is war carried on with counsel and mere words of the lips? and now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

⁵

совњтомъ л^и, и^ли словесы` ё^стными по'лкъ быва'етъ. и^ нн~њ чи'мъ ё^пова'еши, ја%ко не покори'шася мнњ`

⁶

Behold, thou trustest on this bruised staff of reed, on Egypt: as soon as a man leans upon it, it shall go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharao king of Egypt and all that trust in him.

⁶

жеꙁло'мъ л^и тростяномъ съкрђше'нымъ тњмъ, и^ли е^гљ=птомъ. и^же а^ще на'нь въсклонится влњ'ꙁетъ в рђ'цњ е^го и^ прободе и&. та'ко е^сть фараѓ'нъ цр~ь е^гљ=пет#скїи, и^ вс^и ё^пова'ющеи к немђ”

⁷

But if ye say, We trust in the Lord our God;

⁷

А$ще гл~ете мнњ` на г~а б~а на'шего ё^пова'емъ. не сеи л^и е^сть и^же эTяT эT е^зекїа высо'кая и^ тре'бища е^го, и^ ꙁаповᲇда і^ё'дњ і^ и^рsлимђ преD ѓ^лтареM симъ моли'теся дне'сь. т^о

⁸

yet now make an agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, if ye shall be able to set riders upon them.

⁸

нн~њ поDда'иᲄеся господи'нђ мое^мђ цр~ю а^сљ=рїискђ, и^ даM ваM дв^њ ты'сящї ко'нь. а^ще мо'жеᲄе да'ти всњда'ющаа на ни'хъ.

⁹

And how can ye then turn to the face of the satraps? They that trust on the Egyptians for horse and rider are our servants.

⁹

не'гли ка'ко мо'жете эTврати'ти в# лице` вое^во'ды е^ді'ного, раби` сђть ё^пова'юще е^гљ=птя'н#ми, конемъ, и^ ко'н#никомᲆ”

¹⁰

And now, Have we come up against this land to fight against it without the Lord? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

¹⁰

И$ нн~њ е^гда` без# господа е^смы` пришли на странђ сїю вое^ва'ти на ню`. г~ь реq ко мнњ` в#зы'иди на зеMлю сїю и^ погђби ю&”

¹¹

Then Eliakim and Somnas and Joach said to him, Speak to thy servants in the Syrian tongue; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jewish tongue: and wherefore speakest thou in the ears of the men on the wall?

¹¹

И$ реq к немђ е^лїакиM, и^ съмнаs кни'гъчїи, и^ ѓ^а'хъ, гл~и к# рабо'мъ свои^мъ сљ=ръски, ё^слы'шимᲆ б^о м^ы, а^ не гл~и к наM жидо'в#ски. и^ въскђ'ю гл~еши въ ё%ши чл~комъ сњдя'щимъ на гра'дњ”

¹²

And Rabsaces said to them, Has my lord sent me to your lord or to you, to speak these words? has he not sent me to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat dung, and drink their water together with you?

¹²

И$ реq раўа'къ к ни'мъ, е^да л^и кᲆ господинђ ва'шемђ и^л^и к ва'мъ, пђсти'лъ м^я е^сть господи'нъ мои гл~ати словеса с^и, а^ не къ чл~комъ и^же сњдяT на гра'дњ, да ја^дя'тъ моты'ла, и^ пїю'тъ мо'чь с ва'ми вкђ'пњ.

¹³

And Rabsaces stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians:

¹³

и^ ста'въ раўа'къ, и^ въꙁопи' гла'сомъ ве'лїимъ жидо'в#ски, и^ рече” Слы'шите словеса` цр~я вели'каго, цр~я а^сљ=рїиска”

¹⁴

thus says the king, Let not Ezekias deceive you with words: he will not be able to deliver you.

¹⁴

Се^ гл~етъ цр~ь, да не льсти'тъ ва'съ е^ꙁекїя словесы`. ја%же не въꙁмо'гђт# и^ꙁба'вити васъ,

¹⁵

And let not Ezekias say to you, That God will deliver you, and this city will not at all be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.

¹⁵

и^ да не гл~етъ вамъ е^ꙁекїя ја%ко и^ꙁба'витъ в^ы б~ъ. и^ не преда'сться гра'дъ сїи в рђцњ цр~я а^сирїиска,

¹⁶

Hearken not to Ezekias: thus says the king of the Assyrians, If ye wish to be blessed, come out to me: and ye shall eat every one of his vine and his fig-trees, and ye shall drink water out of your own cisterns;

¹⁶

не послђшаите е^ꙁекїи” Се^ гл~етъ цр~ь а^сљ=рїискъ. а^ще хо'щете блsвени бы'ти. т^о и^злњꙁите къ мнњ`, и^ ѓ^бъе^млете ко'ждо винограD сво'и и^ смо'квинїе, и^ пїете эT пото'ка свое^го.

¹⁷

until I come and take you to a land, like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards.

¹⁷

до'ндеже прїидђ и^ поимђ в^ы на' ꙁемлю, и^же а^ки ва'ша ꙁемля`, земля` пшени'цы и^ винђ`, и^ хлњ'бы и^ виногра'дъ”

¹⁸

Let not Ezekias deceive you, saying, God will deliver you. Have the gods of the nations delivered each one his own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians?

¹⁸

да не льсти'тъ ва'съ е^ꙁекїя гл~я, б~ъ вашъ и^ꙁба'виT в^ы. е^да и^ꙁба'виша бо'ѕи ко'жDо странђ` свою` эT рђ'кђ цр~я а^сљ=рїиска.

¹⁹

Where is the god of Emath, and Arphath? and where is the god of Eppharuaim? have they been able to deliver Samaria out of my hand?

¹⁹

гдњ` е^сть бо'гᲆ е^маџовъ, и^ а^рфаџо'въ, гдњ` е^сть б~ъ гра'да сем#фарђема. е^да` въꙁмого'ша и^зба'виᲄи самарїю эT рђ'кђ моею.

²⁰

Which is the god of all these nations, that has delivered his land out of my hand, that God should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?

²⁰

кт^о эT бо'гъ ја%зы'къ всњхъ сиX и^ꙁба'ви зе'млю свою` эT рђ'кђ мое^ю, и^ ја%ко и^зба'витъ б~ъ і^ерsлима эT рђ'кђ моею”

²¹

And they were silent, and none answered him a word; because the king had commanded that none should answer.

²¹

И$ помол#кнђша, и^ никтоy не эTвњща` е^мђ словесе`, повелњ'нїа дњля цр~ва, ја%ко никто'же да не эTвњща'етъ”

²²

And Heliakim the son of Chelcias, the steward, and Somnas the military scribe, and Joach the son of Asaph, the recorder, came in to Ezekias, having their garments rent, and they reported to him the words of Rabsaces.

²²

И$ вни'де е^леа^ки'мъ хелкїевъ самчїи, и^ съмна'съ кни'гъчїи, и^ ѓ^а^хъ а^са'фовъ памятопи'счїи, къ е^ꙁекїи, в растерꙁа'ныхъ ри'ꙁахъ, и^ повњда'ша е^мђ словеса` раўа'кова”
