صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 24
| وَلَمَّا رَجَعَ شَاوُلُ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَخْبَرُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «هُوَذَا دَاوُدُ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ عَيْنِ جَدْيٍ». | ١ 1 |
And it came to pass when Saul returned from pursuing after the Philistines, that it was reported to him, saying, David [is] in the wilderness of Engaddi.
| فَأَخَذَ شَاوُلُ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ مُنْتَخَبِينَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَذَهَبَ يَطْلُبُ دَاوُدَ وَرِجَالَهُ عَلَى صُخُورِ ٱلْوُعُولِ. | ٢ 2 |
And he took with him three thousand men, chosen out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men in front of Saddaeem.
| وَجَاءَ إِلَى صِيَرِ ٱلْغَنَمِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ كَهْفٌ فَدَخَلَ شَاوُلُ لِكَيْ يُغَطِّيَ رِجْلَيْهِ، وَدَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ كَانُوا جُلُوسًا فِي مَغَابِنِ ٱلْكَهْفِ. | ٣ 3 |
And he came to the flocks of sheep that were by the way, and there was a cave there; and Saul went in to make preparation, and David and his men were sitting in the inner part of the cave.
| فَقَالَ رِجَالُ دَاوُدَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَكَ عَنْهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ عَدُوَّكَ لِيَدِكَ فَتَفْعَلُ بِهِ مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ». فَقَامَ دَاوُدُ وَقَطَعَ طَرَفَ جُبَّةِ شَاوُلَ سِرًّا. | ٤ 4 |
And the men of David said to him, Behold, this [is] the day of which the Lord spoke to you, that he would deliver your enemy into your hands; and you shall do to him as [it is] good in your sight. So David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul's garment secretly.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ قَلْبَ دَاوُدَ ضَرَبَهُ عَلَى قَطْعِهِ طَرَفَ جُبَّةِ شَاوُلَ، | ٥ 5 |
And it came to pass after this that David's heart struck him, because he had cut off the skirt of his garment.
| فَقَالَ لِرِجَالِهِ: «حَاشَا لِي مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ أَعْمَلَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ بِسَيِّدِي، بِمَسِيحِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَمُدَّ يَدِي إِلَيْهِ، لِأَنَّهُ مَسِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ». | ٦ 6 |
And David said to his men, The Lord forbid it me, that I should do this ting to my lord the anointed of the Lord, to lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.
| فَوَبَّخَ دَاوُدُ رِجَالَهُ بِٱلْكَلَامِ، وَلَمْ يَدَعْهُمْ يَقُومُونَ عَلَى شَاوُلَ. وَأَمَّا شَاوُلُ فَقَامَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَذَهَبَ فِي طَرِيقِهِ. | ٧ 7 |
So David persuaded his men by [his] words, and did not suffer them to arise and kill Saul: and Saul arose and went his way.
| ثُمَّ قَامَ دَاوُدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَخَرَجَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَنَادَى وَرَاءَ شَاوُلَ قَائِلًا: «يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ». وَلَمَّا ٱلْتَفَتَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ، خَرَّ دَاوُدُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ. | ٨ 8 |
And David rose up [and went] after him out of the cave: and David cried after Saul, saying, [My] lord, [O] king! and Saul looked behind him, and David bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance to him.
| وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِشَاوُلَ: «لِمَاذَا تَسْمَعُ كَلَامَ ٱلنَّاسِ ٱلْقَائِلِينَ: هُوَذَا دَاوُدُ يَطْلُبُ أَذِيَّتَكَ؟ | ٩ 9 |
And David said to Saul, Why do you listen to the words of the people, saying, Behold, David seeks your life?
| هُوَذَا قَدْ رَأَتْ عَيْنَاكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَذَا كَيْفَ دَفَعَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱليَومَ لِيَدِي فِي ٱلْكَهْفِ، وَقِيلَ لِي أَنْ أَقْتُلَكَ، وَلَكِنَّنِي أَشْفَقْتُ عَلَيْكَ وَقُلْتُ: لَا أَمُدُّ يَدِي إِلَى سَيِّدِي، لِأَنَّهُ مَسِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ. | ١٠ 10 |
Behold, your eyes have seen this day how that the Lord has delivered you this day into my hands in the cave; and I would not kill you, but spared you, and said, I will not lift up my hand against my lord, for he is the Lord's anointed.
| فَٱنْظُرْ يَا أَبِي، ٱنْظُرْ أَيْضًا طَرَفَ جُبَّتِكَ بِيَدِي. فَمِنْ قَطْعِي طَرَفَ جُبَّتِكَ وَعَدَمِ قَتْلِي إِيَّاكَ ٱعْلَمْ وَٱنْظُرْ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي يَدِي شَرٌّ وَلَا جُرْمٌ، وَلَمْ أُخْطِئْ إِلَيْكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَصِيدُ نَفْسِي لِتَأْخُذَهَا. | ١١ 11 |
And behold, the skirt of your mantle [is] in my hand, I cut off the skirt, and did not kill you: know then and see today, there is no evil in my hand, nor impiety, nor rebellion; and I have not sinned against you, yet you lay snares for my soul to take it.
| يَقْضِي ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ وَيَنْتَقِمُ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْكَ، وَلَكِنْ يَدِي لَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ. | ١٢ 12 |
The Lord judge between me and you, and the Lord requite you on yourself: but my hand shall not be upon you.
| كَمَا يَقُولُ مَثَلُ ٱلْقُدَمَاءِ: مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَخْرُجُ شَرٌّ. وَلَكِنْ يَدِي لَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ. | ١٣ 13 |
As the old proverb says, Transgression will proceed from the wicked ones: but my hand shall not be upon you.
| وَرَاءَ مَنْ خَرَجَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ وَرَاءَ مَنْ أَنْتَ مُطَارِدٌ؟ وَرَاءَ كَلْبٍ مَيْتٍ! وَرَاءَ بُرْغُوثٍ وَاحِدٍ! | ١٤ 14 |
And now after whom do you come forth, O king of Israel? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog, and after a flea?
| فَيَكُونُ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلدَّيَّانَ وَيَقْضِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ، وَيَرَى وَيُحَاكِمُ مُحَاكَمَتِي، وَيُنْقِذُنِي مِنْ يَدِكَ». | ١٥ 15 |
The Lord be judge and umpire between me and you, the Lord look upon and judge my cause, and rescue me out of your hand.
| فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ دَاوُدُ مِنَ ٱلتَّكَلُّمِ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ إِلَى شَاوُلَ، قَالَ شَاوُلُ: «أَهَذَا صَوْتُكَ يَا ٱبْنِي دَاوُدُ؟» وَرَفَعَ شَاوُلُ صَوْتَهُ وَبَكَى. | ١٦ 16 |
And it came to pass when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, [Is] this your voice, Son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِدَاوُدَ: «أَنْتَ أَبَرُّ مِنِّي، لِأَنَّكَ جَازَيْتَنِي خَيْرًا وَأَنَا جَازَيْتُكَ شَرًّا. | ١٧ 17 |
And Saul said to David, You [are] more righteous that I, for you have recompensed me good, but I have recompensed you evil.
| وَقَدْ أَظْهَرْتَ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنَّكَ عَمِلْتَ بِي خَيْرًا، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ دَفَعَنِي بِيَدِكَ وَلَمْ تَقْتُلْنِي. | ١٨ 18 |
And you have told me today what good you have done me, how the Lord shut me up into your hands today, and you did not kill me.
| فَإِذَا وَجَدَ رَجُلٌ عَدُوَّهُ، فَهَلْ يُطْلِقُهُ فِي طَرِيقِ خَيْرٍ؟ فَٱلرَّبُّ يُجَازِيكَ خَيْرًا عَمَّا فَعَلْتَهُ لِي ٱلْيَوْمَ هَذَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And if any one should find his enemy in distress, and should send him forth in a good way, then the Lord will reward him good, as you has done this day.
| وَٱلْآنَ فَإِنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ تَكُونُ مَلِكًا وَتَثْبُتُ بِيَدِكَ مَمْلَكَةُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And now, behold, I know that you shall surely reign, and the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand.
| فَٱحْلِفْ لِي ٱلْآنَ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِنَّكَ لَا تَقْطَعُ نَسْلِي مِنْ بَعْدِي، وَلَا تُبِيدُ ٱسْمِي مِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِي». | ٢١ 21 |
Now then swear to me by the Lord, that you will not destroy my seed after me, that you will not blot out my name from the house of my father.
| فَحَلَفَ دَاوُدُ لِشَاوُلَ. ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَأَمَّا دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ فَصَعِدُوا إِلَى ٱلْحِصْنِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
So David swore to Saul: and Saul departed to his place, and David and his men went up to the strong-hold of Messera.
