صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 23
| فَأَخْبَرُوا دَاوُدَ قَائِلِينَ: «هُوَذَا ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ يُحَارِبُونَ قَعِيلَةَ وَيَنْهَبُونَ ٱلْبَيَادِرَ». | ١ 1 |
Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshing floors.
| فَسَأَلَ دَاوُدُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «أَأَذْهَبُ وَأَضْرِبُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ؟» فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِدَاوُدَ: «ٱذْهَبْ وَٱضْرِبِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَخَلِّصْ قَعِيلَةَ». | ٢ 2 |
Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said to David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.
| فَقَالَ رِجَالُ دَاوُدَ لَهُ: «هَا نَحْنُ هَهُنَا فِي يَهُوذَا خَائِفُونَ، فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ إِذَا ذَهَبْنَا إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ ضِدَّ صُفُوفِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ؟» | ٣ 3 |
And David’s men said to him, Behold, we be afraid here in Judah: how much more then if we come to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?
| فَعَادَ أَيْضًا دَاوُدُ وَسَأَلَ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَجَابَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَقَالَ: «قُمِ ٱنْزِلْ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ، فَإِنِّي أَدْفَعُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ لِيَدِكَ». | ٤ 4 |
Then David inquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into your hand.
| فَذَهَبَ دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ، وَحَارَبَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَسَاقَ مَوَاشِيَهُمْ، وَضَرَبَهُمْ ضَرْبَةً عَظِيمَةً، وَخَلَّصَ دَاوُدُ سُكَّانَ قَعِيلَةَ. | ٥ 5 |
So David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا هَرَبَ أَبِيَاثَارُ بْنُ أَخِيمَالِكَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ نَزَلَ وَبِيَدِهِ أَفُودٌ. | ٦ 6 |
And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, that he came down with an ephod in his hand.
| فَأُخْبِرَ شَاوُلُ بِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ، فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «قَدْ نَبَذَهُ ٱللهُ إِلَى يَدِي، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ أُغْلِقَ عَلَيْهِ بِٱلدُّخُولِ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ لَهَا أَبْوَابٌ وَعَوَارِضُ». | ٧ 7 |
And it was told Saul that David was come to Keilah. And Saul said, God has delivered him into my hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a town that has gates and bars.
| وَدَعَا شَاوُلُ جَمِيعَ ٱلشَّعْبِ لِلْحَرْبِ لِلنُّزُولِ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ لِمُحَاصَرَةِ دَاوُدَ وَرِجَالِهِ. | ٨ 8 |
And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.
| فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ دَاوُدُ أَنَّ شَاوُلَ مُنْشِئٌ عَلَيْهِ ٱلشَّرَّ، قَالَ لِأَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ قَدِّمِ ٱلْأَفُودَ. | ٩ 9 |
And David knew that Saul secretly practiced mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring here the ephod.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ: «يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِنَّ عَبْدَكَ قَدْ سَمِعَ بِأَنَّ شَاوُلَ يُحَاوِلُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَى قَعِيلَةَ لِكَيْ يُخْرِبَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ بِسَبَبِي. | ١٠ 10 |
Then said David, O LORD God of Israel, your servant has certainly heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.
| فَهَلْ يُسَلِّمُنِي أَهْلُ قَعِيلَةَ لِيَدِهِ؟ هَلْ يَنْزِلُ شَاوُلُ كَمَا سَمِعَ عَبْدُكَ؟ يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، أَخْبِرْ عَبْدَكَ». فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «يَنْزِلُ». | ١١ 11 |
Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? O LORD God of Israel, I beseech you, tell your servant. And the LORD said, He will come down.
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «هَلْ يُسَلِّمُنِي أَهْلُ قَعِيلَةَ مَعَ رِجَالِي لِيَدِ شَاوُلَ؟» فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «يُسَلِّمُونَ». | ١٢ 12 |
Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will deliver you up.
| فَقَامَ دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ، نَحْوُ سِتِّ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ، وَخَرَجُوا مِنْ قَعِيلَةَ وَذَهَبُوا حَيْثُمَا ذَهَبُوا. فَأُخْبِرَ شَاوُلُ بِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدْ أَفْلَتَ مِنْ قَعِيلَةَ، فَعَدَلَ عَنِ ٱلْخُرُوجِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then David and his men, which were about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah, and went wherever they could go. And it was told Saul that David was escaped from Keilah; and he declined to go forth.
| وَأَقَامَ دَاوُدُ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي ٱلْحُصُونِ وَمَكَثَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ زِيفٍ. وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ يَطْلُبُهُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَدْفَعْهُ ٱللهُ لِيَدِهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And David stayed in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand.
| فَرَأَى دَاوُدُ أَنَّ شَاوُلَ قَدْ خَرَجَ يَطْلُبُ نَفْسَهُ. وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ زِيفٍ فِي ٱلْغَابِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life: and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.
| فَقَامَ يُونَاثَانُ بْنُ شَاوُلَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى ٱلْغَابِ وَشَدَّدَ يَدَهُ بِٱللهِ، | ١٦ 16 |
And Jonathan Saul’s son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God.
| وَقَالَ لَهُ: «لَا تَخَفْ لِأَنَّ يَدَ شَاوُلَ أَبِي لَا تَجِدُكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَمْلِكُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَكَ ثَانِيًا. وَشَاوُلُ أَبِي أَيْضًا يَعْلَمُ ذَلِكَ». | ١٧ 17 |
And he said to him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you; and you shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to you; and that also Saul my father knows.
| فَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا عَهْدًا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَأَقَامَ دَاوُدُ فِي ٱلْغَابِ، وَأَمَّا يُونَاثَانُ فَمَضَى إِلَى بَيْتِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David stayed in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
| فَصَعِدَ ٱلزِّيفِيُّونَ إِلَى شَاوُلَ إِلَى جِبْعَةَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَلَيْسَ دَاوُدُ مُخْتَبِئًا عِنْدَنَا فِي حُصُونٍ فِي ٱلْغَابِ، فِي تَلِّ حَخِيلَةَ ٱلَّتِي إِلَى يَمِينِ ٱلْقَفْرِ؟ | ١٩ 19 |
Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon?
| فَٱلْآنَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ شَهْوَةِ نَفْسِكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي ٱلنُّزُولِ ٱنْزِلْ، وَعَلَيْنَا أَنْ نُسَلِّمَهُ لِيَدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king’s hand.
| فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «مُبَارَكُونَ أَنْتُمْ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ أَشْفَقْتُمْ عَلَيَّ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Saul said, Blessed be you of the LORD; for you have compassion on me.
| فَٱذْهَبُوا أَكِّدُوا أَيْضًا، وَٱعْلَمُوا وَٱنْظُرُوا مَكَانَهُ حَيْثُ تَكُونُ رِجْلُهُ وَمَنْ رَآهُ هُنَاكَ، لِأَنَّهُ قِيلَ لِي إِنَّهُ مَكْرًا يَمْكُرُ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and who has seen him there: for it is told me that he deals very subtly.
| فَٱنْظُرُوا وَٱعْلَمُوا جَمِيعَ ٱلْمُخْتَبَآتِ ٱلَّتِي يَخْتَبِئُ فِيهَا، ثُمَّ ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَيَّ عَلَى تَأْكِيدٍ، فَأَسِيرَ مَعَكُمْ. وَيَكُونُ إِذَا وُجِدَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، أَنِّي أُفَتِّشُ عَلَيْهِ بِجَمِيعِ أُلُوفِ يَهُوذَا». | ٢٣ 23 |
See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides himself, and come you again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout all the thousands of Judah.
| فَقَامُوا وَذَهَبُوا إِلَى زِيفٍ قُدَّامَ شَاوُلَ. وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ مَعُونٍ، فِي ٱلسَّهْلِ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْقَفْرِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.
| وَذَهَبَ شَاوُلُ وَرِجَالُهُ لِلتَّفْتِيشِ. فَأَخْبَرُوا دَاوُدَ، فَنَزَلَ إِلَى ٱلصَّخْرِ وَأَقَامَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ مَعُونٍ. فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ شَاوُلُ تَبِعَ دَاوُدَ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ مَعُونٍ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Saul also and his men went to seek him. And they told David; why he came down into a rock, and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.
| فَذَهَبَ شَاوُلُ عَنْ جَانِبِ ٱلْجَبَلِ مِنْ هُنَا، وَدَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ عَنْ جَانِبِ ٱلْجَبَلِ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَفِرُّ فِي ٱلذَّهَابِ مِنْ أَمَامِ شَاوُلَ، وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ وَرِجَالُهُ يُحَاوِطُونَ دَاوُدَ وَرِجَالَهُ لِكَيْ يَأْخُذُوهُمْ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain: and David made haste to get away for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men compassed David and his men round about to take them.
| فَجَاءَ رَسُولٌ إِلَى شَاوُلَ يَقُولُ: «أَسْرِعْ وَٱذْهَبْ لِأَنَّ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ قَدِ ٱقْتَحَمُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ». | ٢٧ 27 |
But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste you, and come; for the Philistines have invaded the land.
| فَرَجَعَ شَاوُلُ عَنِ ٱتِّبَاعِ دَاوُدَ، وَذَهَبَ لِلِقَاءِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعُ «صَخْرَةَ ٱلزَّلَقَاتِ». | ٢٨ 28 |
Why Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines: therefore they called that place Selahammahlekoth.
| وَصَعِدَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَأَقَامَ فِي حُصُونِ عَيْنِ جَدْيٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And David went up from there, and dwelled in strong holds at Engedi.
