Jeers and scornful laughter followed him out of the igloo (насмешки и презрительный смех следовали за ним из иглу), but his jaw was set (но его челюсти были стиснуты) and he went his way (и он пошел своей дорогой), looking neither to right nor left (не глядя ни вправо, ни влево).

jeer [GIq], scornful ['skLnful], laughter ['lRftq]

Jeers and scornful laughter followed him out of the igloo, but his jaw was set and he went his way, looking neither to right nor left.

The next day he went forth along the shore-line (на следующий день он пошел вдоль береговой линии) where the ice and the land met together (где лед и земля встретились вместе). Those who saw him go (те, кто видел, что он уходил) noted that he carried his bow (заметили, что он нес свой лук), with a goodly supply of bone-barbed arrows (с хорошим запасом стрел с костяными наконечниками), and that across his shoulder was his father's big hunting-spear (и что за его плечами было большое охотничье копье его отца). And there was laughter, and much talk, at the event (и был смех, и много разговоров об этом событии). It was an unprecedented occurrence (это было невиданное событие). Never did boys of his tender age go forth to hunt (никогда мальчики такого: «его» нежного возраста не ходили охотиться), much less to hunt alone (тем более охотиться в одиночку). Also were there shaking of heads and prophetic mutterings (также были качание головами и пророческие бормотания), and the women looked pityingly at Ikeega (и женщины смотрели жалостливо на Айкигу), and her face was grave and sad (а ее лицо было строгим и печальным).

And there was laughter, and much talk, at the event. It was an unprecedented occurrence. Never did boys of his tender age go forth to hunt, much less to hunt alone.

"He will be back ere long," they said cheeringly (он вернется скоро, — говорили они сочувственно).

"Let him go (пусть он идет = дайте ему идти); it will teach him a lesson (это научит его уроку)," the hunters said (сказали охотники). "And he will come back shortly (и он вернется скоро), and he will be meek and soft of speech in the days to follow (и он будет кроткий и мягкий в /своей/ речи в последующие дни; to follow — следовать)."

cheering ['CIqrIN], teach [tJC], shortly ['SLtlI]

"He will be back ere long," they said cheeringly.

"Let him go; it will teach him a lesson," the hunters said. "And he will come back shortly, and he will be meek and soft of speech in the days to follow."

But a day passed (но день прошел), and a second (и второй), and on the third a wild gale blew (и на третий /день/ дикий шторм подул; to blow), and there was no Keesh (а Киша не было). Ikeega tore her hair (Айкига разорвала свои волосы; to tear) and put soot of the seal-oil on her face in token of her grief (и размазала по лицу сажу /сгоревшего/ тюленьего жира: «положила сажу /сгоревшего/ тюленьего жира на лицо» в знак своей скорби; oil — масло); and the women assailed the men with bitter words (а женщины нападали на мужчин с горькими словами) in that they had mistreated the boy and sent him to his death (за то, что они плохо обошлись с мальчиком и послали его на смерть); and the men made no answer (и мужчины не отвечали), preparing to go in search of the body when the storm abated (готовясь идти на поиски тела, когда шторм утихнет; to abate — уменьшаться, утихать).

third [TWd], blew [blH], hair [heq], answer ['Rnsq]

But a day passed, and a second, and on the third a wild gale blew, and there was no Keesh. Ikeega tore her hair and put soot of the seal-oil on her face in token of her grief; and the women assailed the men with bitter words in that they had mistreated the boy and sent him to his death; and the men made no answer, preparing to go in search of the body when the storm abated.

Early next morning, however (ранним утром следующего дня = ранним следующим утром однако), Keesh strode into the village (Киш вошел большими шагами в деревню; to stride — шагать /большими шагами/). But he came not shamefacedly (но он пришел не со стыдливым лицом; shame — стыд; face — лицо). Across his shoulders he bore a burden of fresh-killed meat (на своих плечах он нес тяжесть свежеубитого мяса). And there was importance in his step and arrogance in his speech (и была важность в его поступи и надменность в его речи; arrogance — высокомерие, надменность).

"Go, ye men, with the dogs and sledges (идите, вы, мужчины, с собаками и нартами), and take my trail for the better part of a day's travel," he said (и возьмите мой след = идите по моему следу несколько дальше, чем один дневной перегон: «на лучшую часть дневного пути», — сказал он). "There is much meat on the ice (там много мяса на льду) — a she-bear and two half-grown cubs (медведица и двое полувзрослых детенышей; cub — детеныш /зверя/)."

however [hau'evq], shoulder ['Squldq], burden [bWdn]

Ikeega was overcome with joy (Айкига была обрадована: «была переполнена радостью»), but he received her demonstrations in manlike fashion (но он принял ее восторги по-мужски: «в мужской манере»), saying: "Come, Ikeega, let us eat (говоря: пойдем, Айкига, давай поедим). And after that I shall sleep (а после этого я буду спать), for I am weary (потому что я утомлен; weary — усталый, утомленный)."
