وَحَارَبَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَهَرَبَ رِجَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَسَقَطُوا قَتْلَى فِي جَبَلِ جِلْبُوعَ. ١ 1
Now, the Philistines, fought against Israel, —and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and the wounded fell in Mount Gilboa.
وَشَدَّ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَرَاءَ شَاوُلَ وَوَرَاءَ بَنِيهِ، وَضَرَبَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ يُونَاثَانَ وَأَبِينَادَابَ وَمَلْكِيشُوعَ أَبْنَاءَ شَاوُلَ. ٢ 2
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons, —and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, sons of Saul.
وَٱشْتَدَّتِ ٱلْحَرْبُ عَلَى شَاوُلَ فَأَصَابَتْهُ رُمَاةُ ٱلْقِسِيِّ، فَٱنْجَرَحَ مِنَ ٱلرُّمَاةِ. ٣ 3
And the battle, went sore, against Saul, and the archers discovered him with the bow, —and he was terrified because of the archers.
فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لِحَامِلِ سِلَاحِهِ: «ٱسْتَلَّ سَيْفَكَ وَٱطْعَنِّي بِهِ لِئَلَّا يَأْتِيَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْغُلْفُ وَيُقَبِّحُونِي». فَلَمْ يَشَأْ حَامِلُ سِلَاحِهِ لِأَنَّهُ خَافَ جِدًّا. فَأَخَذَ شَاوُلُ ٱلسَّيْفَ وَسَقَطَ عَلَيْهِ. ٤ 4
Therefore said Saul unto his armour-bearer, Draw out thy sword and thrust me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he feared greatly, —so then Saul took the sword, and fell upon it.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى حَامِلُ سِلَاحِهِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ شَاوُلُ، سَقَطَ هُوَ أَيْضًا عَلَى ٱلسَّيْفِ وَمَاتَ. ٥ 5
And, when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, then, he also, fell upon the sword, and died.
فَمَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَبَنُوهُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ وَكُلُّ بَيْتِهِ، مَاتُوا مَعًا. ٦ 6
So Saul died, and his three sons, and, all his house, together, died.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْوَادِي أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ هَرَبُوا، وَأَنَّ شَاوُلَ وَبَنِيهِ قَدْ مَاتُوا، تَرَكُوا مُدُنَهُمْ وَهَرَبُوا، فَأَتَى ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَسَكَنُوا بِهَا. ٧ 7
And, when all the men of Israel that were in the vale saw, that they had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then forsook they their cities, and fled, and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
وَفِي ٱلْغَدِ لَمَّا جَاءَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ لِيُعَرُّوا ٱلْقَتْلَى، وَجَدُوا شَاوُلَ وَبَنِيهِ سَاقِطِينَ فِي جَبَلِ جِلْبُوعَ، ٨ 8
And it came to pass, on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, —that they found Saul, and his sons, lying prostrate in Mount Gilboa.
فَعَرَّوْهُ وَأَخَذُوا رَأْسَهُ وَسِلَاحَهُ، وَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ فِي كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ لِأَجْلِ تَبْشِيرِ أَصْنَامِهِمْ وَٱلشَّعْبِ. ٩ 9
So they stript him, and took his head, and his armour, —and sent throughout the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it to their idols, and to the people.
وَوَضَعُوا سِلَاحَهُ فِي بَيْتِ آلِهَتِهِمْ، وَسَمَّرُوا رَأْسَهُ فِي بَيْتِ دَاجُونَ. ١٠ 10
And they put his armour, in the house of their gods, —but, his skull, fastened they up, in the house of Dagon.
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ كُلُّ يَابِيشِ جِلْعَادَ بِكُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ بِشَاوُلَ، ١١ 11
And, when all Jabesh-Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
قَامَ كُلُّ ذِي بَأْسٍ وَأَخَذُوا جُثَّةَ شَاوُلَ وَجُثَثَ بَنِيهِ وَجَاءُوا بِهَا إِلَى يَابِيشَ، وَدَفَنُوا عِظَامَهُمْ تَحْتَ ٱلْبُطْمَةِ فِي يَابِيشَ، وَصَامُوا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ. ١٢ 12
then rose up all the men of valour, and took away the corpse of Saul, and the corpses of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, —and buried their bodies under the terebinth, in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
فَمَاتَ شَاوُلُ بِخِيَانَتِهِ ٱلَّتِي بِهَا خَانَ ٱلرَّبَّ مِنْ أَجْلِ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَحْفَظْهُ. وَأَيْضًا لِأَجْلِ طَلَبِهِ إِلَى ٱلْجَانِّ لِلسُّؤَالِ، ١٣ 13
Thus died Saul, for his unfaithfulness wherewith he dealt unfaithfully against Yahweh, over the word of Yahweh, which he kept not, —and, also, in asking by necromancy when he desired to enquire;
وَلَمْ يَسْأَلْ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَمَاتَهُ وَحَوَّلَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ بْنِ يَسَّى. ١٤ 14
and enquired not of Yahweh, wherefore he slew him, —and turned round the kingdom unto David, son of Jesse.
