< صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 22 >

فَذَهَبَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَنَجَا إِلَى مَغَارَةِ عَدُلَّامَ. فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ إِخْوَتُهُ وَجَمِيعُ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ نَزَلُوا إِلَيْهِ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. ١ 1
David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard [it], they went down thither to him.
وَٱجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مُتَضَايِقٍ، وَكُلُّ مَنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ، وَكُلُّ رَجُلٍ مُرِّ ٱلنَّفْسِ، فَكَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَئِيسًا. وَكَانَ مَعَهُ نَحْوُ أَرْبَعِ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ. ٢ 2
And every one [that was] in distress, and every one that [was] in debt, and every one [that was] discontented, resorted to him; and he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.
وَذَهَبَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى مِصْفَاةِ مُوآبَ، وَقَالَ لِمَلِكِ مُوآبَ: «لِيَخْرُجْ أَبِي وَأُمِّي إِلَيْكُمْ حَتَّى أَعْلَمَ مَاذَا يَصْنَعُ لِيَ ٱللهُ». ٣ 3
And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, [and be] with you, till I know what God will do for me.
فَوَدَعَهُمَا عِنْدَ مَلِكِ مُوآبَ، فَأَقَامَا عِنْدَهُ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ إِقَامَةِ دَاوُدَ فِي ٱلْحِصْنِ. ٤ 4
And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold.
فَقَالَ جَادُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ لِدَاوُدَ: «لَا تُقِمْ فِي ٱلْحِصْنِ. ٱذْهَبْ وَٱدْخُلْ أَرْضَ يَهُوذَا». فَذَهَبَ دَاوُدُ وَجَاءَ إِلَى وَعْرِ حَارِثٍ. ٥ 5
And the prophet Gad said to David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and come into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth.
وَسَمِعَ شَاوُلُ أَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱشْتَهَرَ دَاوُدُ وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ. وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ مُقِيمًا فِي جِبْعَةَ تَحْتَ ٱلْأَثْلَةِ فِي ٱلرَّامَةِ وَرُمْحُهُ بِيَدِهِ، وَجَمِيعُ عَبِيدِهِ وُقُوفًا لَدَيْهِ. ٦ 6
When Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that [were] with him, (now Saul abode in Gibeah under a tree in Ramah, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants [were] standing about him; )
فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لِعَبِيدِهِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ لَدَيْهِ: «ٱسْمَعُوا يَابَنْيَامِينِيُّونَ: هَلْ يُعْطِيكُمْ جَمِيعَكُمُ ٱبْنُ يَسَّى حُقُولًا وَكُرُومًا؟ وَهَلْ يَجْعَلُكُمْ جَمِيعَكُمْ رُؤَسَاءَ أُلُوفٍ وَرُؤَسَاءَ مِئَاتٍ، ٧ 7
Then Saul said to his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjaminites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, [and] make you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds;
حَتَّى فَتَنْتُمْ كُلُّكُمْ عَلَيَّ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُخْبِرُنِي بِعَهْدِ ٱبْنِي مَعَ ٱبْنِ يَسَّى، وَلَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ مَنْ يَحْزَنُ عَلَيَّ أَوْ يُخْبِرُنِي بِأَنَّ ٱبْنِي قَدْ أَقَامَ عَبْدِي عَلَيَّ كَمِينًا كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ؟» ٨ 8
That all of you have conspired against me, and [there is] none that showeth me that my son hath made a league with the son of Jesse, and [there is] none of you that is sorry for me, or showeth to me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
فَأَجَابَ دُوَاغُ ٱلْأَدُومِيُّ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ مُوَكَّلًا عَلَى عَبِيدِ شَاوُلَ وَقَالَ: «قَدْ رَأَيْتُ ٱبْنَ يَسَّى آتِيًا إِلَى نُوبَ إِلَى أَخِيمَالِكَ بْنِ أَخِيطُوبَ. ٩ 9
Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
فَسَأَلَ لَهُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَأَعْطَاهُ زَادًا. وَسَيْفَ جُلْيَاتَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّ أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ». ١٠ 10
And he inquired of the LORD for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَٱسْتَدْعَى أَخِيمَالِكَ بْنَ أَخِيطُوبَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ وَجَمِيعَ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي نُوبٍ، فَجَاءُوا كُلُّهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١١ 11
Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that [were] in Nob: and they came all of them to the king.
فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «ٱسْمَعْ يَا ٱبْنَ أَخِيطُوبَ». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا يَاسَيِّدِي». ١٢ 12
And Saul said, Hear now, thou son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I [am], my lord.
فَقَالَ لَهُ شَاوُلُ: «لِمَاذَا فَتَنْتُمْ عَلَيَّ أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُ يَسَّى بِإِعْطَائِكَ إِيَّاهُ خُبْزًا وَسَيْفًا، وَسَأَلْتَ لَهُ مِنَ ٱللهِ لِيَقُومَ عَلَيَّ كَامِنًا كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ؟». ١٣ 13
And Saul said to him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
فَأَجَابَ أَخِيمَالِكُ ٱلْمَلِكَ وَقَالَ: «وَمَنْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ عَبِيدِكَ مِثْلُ دَاوُدَ، أَمِينٌ وَصِهْرُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَصَاحِبُ سِرِّكَ وَمُكَرَّمٌ فِي بَيْتِكَ؟ ١٤ 14
Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, And who [is so] faithful among all thy servants as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and goeth at thy bidding, and is honorable in thy house?
فَهَلِ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱبْتَدَأْتُ أَسْأَلُ لَهُ مِنَ ٱللهِ؟ حَاشَا لِي! لَا يَنْسِبِ ٱلْمَلِكُ شَيْئًا لِعَبْدِهِ وَلَا لِجَمِيعِ بَيْتِ أَبِي، لِأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ لَمْ يَعْلَمْ شَيْئًا مِنْ كُلِّ هَذَا صَغِيرًا أَوْ كَبِيرًا». ١٥ 15
Did I then begin to inquire of God for him? be it far from me. Let not the king impute [any] thing to his servant, [nor] to all the house of my father: for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ يَا أَخِيمَالِكُ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ». ١٦ 16
And the king said, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.
وَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِلسُّعَاةِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ لَدَيْهِ: «دُورُوا وَٱقْتُلُوا كَهَنَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّ يَدَهُمْ أَيْضًا مَعَ دَاوُدَ، وَلِأَنَّهُمْ عَلِمُوا أَنَّهُ هَارِبٌ وَلَمْ يُخْبِرُونِي». فَلَمْ يَرْضَ عَبِيدُ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَنْ يَمُدُّوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ لِيَقَعُوا بِكَهَنَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٧ 17
And the king said to the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD: because their hand also [is] with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not show it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD.
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِدُوَاغَ: «دُرْ أَنْتَ وَقَعْ بِٱلْكَهَنَةِ». فَدَارَ دُوَاغُ ٱلْأَدُومِيُّ وَوَقَعَ هُوَ بِٱلْكَهَنَةِ، وَقَتَلَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ خَمْسَةً وَثَمَانِينَ رَجُلًا لَابِسِي أَفُودِ كَتَّانٍ. ١٨ 18
And the king said to Doeg, Turn thou, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and he fell upon the priests, and slew on that day eighty and five persons that wore a linen ephod.
وَضَرَبَ نُوبَ مَدِينَةَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. ٱلرِّجَالَ وَٱلنِّسَاءَ وَٱلْأَطْفَالَ وَٱلرُّضُعَ وَٱلثِّيرَانَ وَٱلْحَمِيرَ وَٱلْغَنَمَ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. ١٩ 19
And Nob, the city of the priests, he smote with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
فَنَجَا وَلَدٌ وَاحِدٌ لِأَخِيمَالِكَ بْنِ أَخِيطُوبَ ٱسْمُهُ أَبِيَاثَارُ وَهَرَبَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ. ٢٠ 20
And one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.
وَأَخْبَرَ أَبِيَاثَارُ دَاوُدَ بِأَنَّ شَاوُلَ قَدْ قَتَلَ كَهَنَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢١ 21
And Abiathar showed David that Saul had slain the LORD'S priests.
فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِأَبِيَاثَارَ: «عَلِمْتُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ كَانَ دُوَاغُ ٱلْأَدُومِيُّ هُنَاكَ، أَنَّهُ يُخْبِرُ شَاوُلَ. أَنَا سَبَّبْتُ لِجَمِيعِ أَنْفُسِ بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ. ٢٢ 22
And David said to Abiathar, I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite [was] there, that he would surely tell Saul: I have occasioned [the death] of all the persons of thy father's house.
أَقِمْ مَعِي. لَا تَخَفْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِي يَطْلُبُ نَفْسِي يَطْلُبُ نَفْسَكَ، وَلَكِنَّكَ عِنْدِي مَحْفُوظٌ». ٢٣ 23
Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life: but with me thou [shalt be] in safeguard.
