Judith 14

Then said Judith unto them, Hear me now, my brethren, and take this head, and hang it upon the highest place of your walls.

ΚΑΙ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς ᾿Ιουδίθ· ἀκούσατε δή μου, ἀδελφοί, καὶ λαβόντες τὴν κεφαλὴν ταύτην κρεμάσατε αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τῆς ἐπάλξεως τοῦ τείχους ὑμῶν.

И҆ речѐ къ ни̑мъ і҆ꙋді́ѳъ: послꙋ́шайте ᲂу҆̀бо менѐ, бра́тїѧ, и҆ взе́мше главꙋ̀ сїю̀ повѣ́сите ю҆̀ на забра́лѣ стѣны̀ ва́шеѧ:

And so soon as the morning shall appear, and the sun shall come forth upon the earth, take ye every one his weapons, and go forth every valiant man out of the city, and set ye a captain over them, as though ye would go down into the field toward the watch of the Assyrians; but go not down.

καὶ ἔσται ἡνίκα ἂν διαφαύσῃ ὁ ὄρθρος καὶ ἐξέλθῃ ὁ ἥλιος ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, ἀναλήψεσθε ἕκαστος τὰ σκεύη τὰ πολεμικὰ ὑμῶν καὶ ἐξελεύσεσθε πᾶς ἀνὴρ ἰσχύων ἔξω τῆς πόλεως καὶ δώσετε ἀρχηγὸν εἰς αὐτοὺς ὡς καταβαίνοντες ἐπὶ τὸ πεδίον εἰς τὴν προφυλακὴν υἱῶν ᾿Ασσούρ, καὶ οὐ καταβήσεσθε.

и҆ бꙋ́детъ є҆гда̀ возсїѧ́етъ ᲂу҆́тро, и҆ взы́детъ со́лнце на зе́млю, прїи́мете ко́ждо ѻ҆рꙋ̑дїѧ бра̑ннаѧ ва̑ша, и҆ и҆зы́дете всѧ́къ мꙋ́жъ си́льный внѣ̀ гра́да, и҆ дади́те воево́дꙋ над̾ ни́ми, а҆́ки сходѧ́ще на по́ле ко пе́рвѣй стра́жи сынѡ́въ а҆ссꙋ́ровыхъ, и҆ не сни́дете:

Then they shall take their armour, and shall go into their camp, and raise up the captains of the army of Assur, and shall run to the tent of Holofernes, but shall not find him: then fear shall fall upon them, and they shall flee before your face.

καὶ ἀναλαβόντες οὗτοι τὰς πανοπλίας αὐτῶν πορεύσονται εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐγεροῦσι τοὺς στρατηγοὺς τῆς δυνάμεως ᾿Ασσούρ· καὶ συνδραμοῦνται ἐπὶ τὴν σκηνὴν ᾿Ολοφέρνου καὶ οὐχ εὑρήσουσιν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐπιπεσεῖται ἐπ᾿ αὐτου’ς φόβος, καὶ φεύξονται ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν.

и҆ взе́мше сі́и всеѻрꙋ̑жїѧ своѧ̑, по́йдꙋтъ ко ѡ҆полче́нїю своемꙋ̀, и҆ возбꙋ́дѧтъ воевѡ́ды си́лы а҆ссꙋ́ровы, и҆ стекꙋ́тсѧ ко шатрꙋ̀ ѻ҆лофе́рновꙋ, и҆ не ѡ҆брѧ́щꙋтъ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ нападе́тъ на ни́хъ стра́хъ, и҆ побѣ́гнꙋтъ ѿ лица̀ ва́шегѡ:

So ye, and all that inhabit the coast of Israel, shall pursue them, and overthrow them as they go.

καὶ ἐπακολουθήσαντες ὑμεῖς καὶ πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες πᾶν ὅριον ᾿Ισραήλ, καταστρώσατε αὐτοὺς ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτῶν.

и҆ возслѣ́довавшїи ва́мъ, и҆ всѝ живꙋ́щїи во все́мъ предѣ́лѣ і҆и҃льстѣмъ, постила́йте ѧ҆̀ по пꙋтє́мъ и҆́хъ:

But before ye do these things, call me Achior the Ammonite, that he may see and know him that despised the house of Israel, and that sent him to us as it were to his death.

πρὸ δὲ τοῦ ποιῆσαι ταῦτα, καλέσατέ μοι ᾿Αχιὼρ τὸν ᾿Αμανίτην, ἵνα ἰδὼν ἐπιγνῷ τὸν ἐκφαυλίσαντα τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ αὐτὸν ὡς εἰς θάνατον ἀποστείλαντα εἰς ἡμᾶς.

пре́жде же є҆́же сотвори́ти сїѧ̑, призови́те мнѣ̀ а҆хїѡ́ра а҆ммані́тина, да ви́дѣвъ позна́етъ ᲂу҆ничтожа́ющаго до́мъ і҆и҃левъ, и҆ сего̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ на сме́рть по́сланнаго къ на́мъ.

Then they called Achior out of the house of Ozias; and when he was come, and saw the head of Holofernes in a man’s hand in the assembly of the people, he fell down on his face, and his spirit failed.

καὶ ἐκάλεσαν τὸν ᾿Αχιὼρ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου ᾿Οζία· ὡς δὲ ἦλθε καὶ εἶδε τὴν κεφαλὴν ᾿Ολοφέρνου ἐν χειρὶ ἀνδρὸς ἑνὸς ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ λαοῦ, ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον, καὶ ἐξελύθη τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ.

И҆ призва́ша а҆хїѡ́ра и҆з̾ до́мꙋ ѻ҆зі́ина. Є҆гда́ же прїи́де и҆ ви́дѣ главꙋ̀ ѻ҆лофе́рновꙋ въ рꙋцѣ̀ мꙋ́жа є҆ди́нагѡ въ собра́нїи люді́й, падѐ на лицѐ, и҆ разсла́бисѧ дꙋ́хъ є҆гѡ̀.

But when they had recovered him, he fell at Judith’s feet, and reverenced her, and said, Blessed art thou in all the tabernacles of Juda, and in all nations, which hearing thy name shall be astonished.

ὡς δὲ ἀνέλαβον αὐτόν, προσέπεσε τοῖς ποσὶν ᾿Ιουδὶθ καὶ προσεκύνησε τῷ προσώπῳ αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν· εὐλογημένη σὺ ἐν παντὶ σκηνώματι ᾿Ιούδα καὶ ἐν παντὶ ἔθνει, οἵτινες ἀκούσαντες τὸ ὄνομά σου ταραχθήσονται·

Є҆гда́ же под̾ѧ́ша є҆го̀, припадѐ къ нога́ма і҆ꙋді́ѳы, и҆ поклони́сѧ лицꙋ̀ є҆ѧ̀, и҆ речѐ: благослове́на ты̀ во всѧ́цѣмъ селе́нїи і҆ꙋ́динѣ и҆ во всѧ́цѣмъ ꙗ҆зы́цѣ, и҆̀же ᲂу҆слы́шавше и҆́мѧ твоѐ смѧтꙋ́тсѧ:

Now therefore tell me all the things that thou hast done in these days. Then Judith declared unto him in the midst of the people all that she had done, from the day that she went forth until that hour she spake unto them.

καὶ νῦν ἀνάγγειλόν μοι ὅσα ἐποίσας ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις. καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ ᾿Ιουδὶθ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ πάντα, ὅσα ἦν πεποιηκυῖα, ἀφ᾿ ἧς ἡμέρας ἐξῆλθεν ἕως οὗ ἐλάλει αὐτοῖς.

и҆ нн҃ѣ возвѣсти́ ми, є҆ли̑ка сотвори́ла є҆сѝ во дне́хъ си́хъ. И҆ возвѣстѝ є҆мꙋ̀ і҆ꙋді́ѳъ посредѣ̀ люді́й всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ, ѿ негѡ́же днѐ и҆зы́де, до́ндеже глаго́лаше и҆̀мъ.

And when she had left off speaking, the people shouted with a loud voice, and made a joyful noise in their city.

ὡς δὲ ἐπαύσατο λαλοῦσα, ἠλάλαξεν ὁ λαὸς φωνῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ ἔδωκε φωνὴν εὐφρόσυνον ἐν τῇ πόλει αὐτῶν.

Є҆гда́ же преста̀ глаго́лющи, воскли́кнꙋша лю́дїе гла́сомъ вели́кимъ и҆ дадо́ша гла́съ весе́лый во гра́дѣ свое́мъ.

And when Achior had seen all that the God of Israel had done, he believed in God greatly, and circumcised the flesh of his foreskin, and was joined unto the house of Israel unto this day.

ἰδὼν δὲ ᾿Αχιὼρ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησεν ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ, ἐπίστευσε τῷ Θεῷ σφόδρα καὶ περιετέμετο τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτοῦ καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸν οἶκον ᾿Ισραὴλ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.

Ви́дѣвъ же а҆хїѡ́ръ всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ бг҃ъ і҆и҃левъ, вѣ́рова бг҃ꙋ ѕѣлѡ̀, и҆ ѡ҆брѣ́за пло́ть кра́йнюю свою̀, и҆ приложи́сѧ къ до́мꙋ і҆и҃левꙋ да́же до днѐ сегѡ̀.

And as soon as the morning arose, they hanged the head of Holofernes upon the wall, and every man took his weapons, and they went forth by bands unto the straits of the mountain.

῾Ηνίκα δὲ ὁ ὄρθρος ἀνέβη, καὶ ἐκρέμασαν τὴν κεφαλὴν ᾿Ολοφέρνου ἐκ τοῦ τείχους, καὶ ἀνέλαβε πᾶς ἀνὴρ ᾿Ισραὴλ τὰ ὅπλα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξήλθοσαν κατὰ σπείρας ἐπὶ τὰς ἀναβάσεις τοῦ ὄρους.

Є҆гда́ же денни́ца взы́де, свѣ́сиша главꙋ̀ ѻ҆лофе́рновꙋ со стѣны̀: и҆ воспрїѧ́тъ всѧ́къ мꙋ́жъ і҆и҃левъ ѻ҆рꙋ̑жїѧ своѧ̑, и҆ и҆зыдо́ша полка́ми на восхо́ды горы̀.

But when the Assyrians saw them, they sent to their leaders, which came to their captains and tribunes, and to every one of their rulers.

οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ ᾿Ασσοὺρ ὡς εἶδον αὐτούς, διέπεμψαν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἡγουμένους αὐτῶν· οἱ δὲ ἦλθον ἐπὶ στρατηγοὺς καὶ χιλιάρχους καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα ἄρχοντα αὐτῶν.

Сы́нове же а҆ссꙋ́рѡвы, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆ви́дѣша и҆̀хъ, разосла́ша къ вождє́мъ свои̑мъ: ѻ҆ни́ же прїидо́ша къ воево́дамъ и҆ ты́сѧщникѡмъ и҆ ко всѧ́комꙋ кнѧ́зю своемꙋ̀,

So they came to Holofernes’ tent, and said to him that had the charge of all his things, Waken now our lord: for the slaves have been bold to come down against us to battle, that they may be utterly destroyed.

καὶ παρεγένοντο ἐπὶ τὴν σκηνὴν ᾿Ολοφέρνου καὶ εἶπαν τῷ ὄντι ἐπὶ πάντων τῶν αὐτοῦ· ἔγειρον δὴ τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν, ὅτι ἐτόλμησαν οἱ δοῦλοι καταβαίνειν ἐφ᾿ ἡμᾶς εἰς πόλεμον, ἵνα ἐξολοθρευθῶσιν εἰς τέλος.

и҆ прїидо́ша къ шатрꙋ̀ ѻ҆лофе́рновꙋ, и҆ рѣ́ша сꙋ́щемꙋ над̾ всѣ́ми є҆гѡ̀: возбꙋдѝ ᲂу҆̀бо господи́на на́шего, занѐ дерзнꙋ́ша рабѝ сходи́ти къ на́мъ на бра́нь, да и҆стребѧ́тсѧ въ коне́цъ.

Then went in Bagoas, and knocked at the door of the tent; for he thought that he had slept with Judith.

καὶ εἰσῆλθε Βαγώας καὶ ἔκρουσε τὴν αὐλαίαν τῆς σκηνῆς· ὑπενοεῖτο γὰρ καθεύδειν αὐτὸν μετὰ ᾿Ιουδίθ·

И҆ вни́де вагѡ́а и҆ толкнꙋ̀ во дво́ръ шатра̀, мнѧ́ше бо спа́ти є҆го̀ со і҆ꙋді́ѳою.

But because none answered, he opened it, and went into the bedchamber, and found him cast upon the floor dead, and his head was taken from him.

ὡς δὲ οὐδεὶς ἐπήκουσε, διαστείλας εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν κοιτῶνα καὶ εὗρεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῆς χελωνίδος ἐρριμμένον νεκρόν, καὶ ἡ κεφαλὴ αὐτοῦ ἀφῄρετο ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.

Є҆гда́ же никто́же послꙋ́шаше, раствори́въ вни́де въ ло́жницꙋ и҆ ѡ҆брѣ́те є҆го̀ при пра́зѣ пове́ржена ме́ртва, и҆ глава̀ є҆гѡ̀ ѿѧ́та бы́сть ѿ негѡ̀:

Therefore he cried with a loud voice, with weeping, and sighing, and a mighty cry, and rent his garments.

καὶ ἐβόησε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ καὶ στεναγμοῦ καὶ βοῆς ἰσχυρᾶς καὶ διέρρηξε τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ.

и҆ возопѝ гла́сомъ вели́кимъ съ пла́чемъ и҆ стена́нїемъ и҆ во́племъ крѣ́пкимъ, и҆ раздра̀ ри̑зы своѧ̑:

After he went into the tent where Judith lodged: and when he found her not, he leaped out to the people, and cried,

καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν σκηνήν, οὗ ἦν ᾿Ιουδὶθ καταλύουσα, καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν αὐτήν· καὶ ἐξεπήδησεν εἰς τὸν λαὸν κράζων·

и҆ вни́де въ шате́ръ, и҆дѣ́же бѣ̀ і҆ꙋді́ѳъ ѡ҆бита́ющи, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣ́те є҆ѧ̀, и҆ и҆зскочѝ къ лю́демъ и҆ возопѝ:

These slaves have dealt treacherously; one woman of the Hebrews hath brought shame upon the house of king Nabuchodonosor: for, behold, Holofernes lieth upon the ground without a head.

ἠθέτησαν οἱ δοῦλοι, ἐποίησεν αἰσχύνην μία γυνὴ τῶν ῾Εβραίων εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως Ναβουχοδονόσορ· ὅτι ἰδοὺ ᾿Ολοφέρνης χαμαί, καὶ ἡ κεφαλὴ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ.

ѿверго́шасѧ рабѝ, сотворѝ стꙋ́дъ є҆ди́на жена̀ є҆вре́йскаѧ на до́мъ царѧ̀ навꙋходоно́сора: занѐ сѐ, ѻ҆лофе́рнъ до́лꙋ, и҆ главы̀ нѣ́сть на не́мъ.

When the captains of the Assyrians’ army heard these words, they rent their coats and their minds were wonderfully troubled, and there was a cry and a very great noise throughout the camp.

ὡς δὲ ἤκουσαν ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα οἱ ἄρχοντες τῆς δυνάμεως ᾿Ασσούρ, τοὺς χιτῶνας αὐτῶν διέρρηξαν, καὶ ἐταράχθη ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῶν σφόδρα, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν κραυγὴ καὶ βοὴ μεγάλη σφόδρα ἐν μέσῳ τῆς παρεμβολῆς.

Є҆гда́ же ᲂу҆слы́шаша сїѧ̑ глаго́лы кнѧ́зїе си́лы а҆ссꙋ́ровы, раздра́ша ри̑зы своѧ̑, и҆ смѧте́сѧ дꙋша̀ и҆́хъ ѕѣлѡ̀, и҆ бы́сть и҆́хъ кри́къ и҆ во́пль ѕѣлѡ̀ посредѣ̀ полка̀.
