< اول سموئیل 19 >

و شاول به پسر خود یوناتان و به جمیع خادمان خویش فرمود تا داود رابکشند. ۱ 1
Then Saul urged all his servants and his son Jonathan to kill David. But Jonathan liked David very much.
اما یوناتان پسر شاول به داود بسیار میل داشت، و یوناتان داود را خبر داده، گفت: «پدرم شاول قصد قتل تو دارد، پس الان تا بامدادان خویشتن را نگاهدار و در جایی مخفی مانده، خود را پنهان کن. ۲ 2
So he warned David, “My father Saul is seeking for a way to kill you. So be careful. Tomorrow morning go and find a place to hide [in the field].
و من بیرون آمده، به پهلوی پدرم در صحرایی که تو در آن می‌باشی خواهم ایستاد، و درباره تو با پدرم گفتگو خواهم کرد واگر چیزی ببینم تو را اطلاع خواهم داد.» ۳ 3
I will ask my father to go out there with me. [While we are out there], I will talk to him about you. Then I will tell you everything that he tells me.” [So David did what Jonathan told him to do].
و یوناتان درباره داود نزد پدر خود شاول به نیکویی سخن رانده، وی را گفت: «پادشاه بر بنده خود داود گناه نکند زیرا که او به تو گناه نکرده است بلکه اعمال وی برای تو بسیار نیکو بوده است. ۴ 4
[The next morning], Jonathan spoke with his father, saying many good things about David. He said, “You should never do anything to harm your servant David! He has never done anything to harm you! Everything that he has done has helped you very much.
و جان خویش را به‌دست خود نهاده، آن فلسطینی را کشت و خداوند نجات عظیمی به جهت تمامی اسرائیل نمود و تو آن را دیده، شادمان شدی؛ پس چرا به خون بی‌تقصیری گناه کرده، داود را بی‌سبب بکشی.» ۵ 5
He was in danger of being killed when he fought against [Goliath, the champion of] the Philistia [army. By enabling David to kill him], Yahweh won a great victory for all the people of Israel. You were very happy when you saw that. Why would you want to do anything now to harm David [RHQ]? There is no reason for you to kill him, because he has not done anything wrong!”
و شاول به سخن یوناتان گوش گرفت، و شاول قسم خورد که به حیات خداوند او کشته نخواهد شد. ۶ 6
Saul listened to what Jonathan said. Then Saul said, “I solemnly promise that just as certain as Yahweh lives, I will not kill David.”
آنگاه یوناتان داود را خواند و یوناتان او را از همه این سخنان خبر داد و یوناتان داود را نزد شاول آورده، او مثل ایام سابق در حضور وی می‌بود. ۷ 7
Afterward, Jonathan summoned David and told him what he and Saul had said. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul, and David served Saul as he had done before.
و باز جنگ واقع شده، داود بیرون رفت و بافلسطینیان جنگ کرده، ایشان را به کشتار عظیمی شکست داد و از حضور وی فرار کردند. ۸ 8
One day a war started again, and David [led his soldiers to] fight against the Philistia army. David’s [army] attacked them very furiously, with the result that the Philistia army ran away.
و روح بد از جانب خداوند بر شاول آمد و او در خانه خود نشسته، مزراق خویش را در دست داشت وداود به‌دست خود می‌نواخت. ۹ 9
But one day when sitting in his house, an evil spirit [sent] from Yahweh [suddenly] came upon Saul. While David was playing his harp [for Saul],
و شاول خواست که داود را با مزراق خود تا به دیوار بزند، اما او از حضور شاول بگریخت و مزراق را به دیوار زد و داود فرار کرده، آن شب نجات یافت. ۱۰ 10
Saul hurled his spear at David to try to fasten him to the wall. David (dodged/jumped to one side), and the spear did not hit him. The spear stuck in the wall, but that night David escaped.
و شاول قاصدان به خانه داود فرستاد تا آن را نگاهبانی نمایند و در صبح او را بکشند. امامیکال، زن داود، او را خبر داده، گفت: «اگر امشب جان خود را خلاص نکنی، فردا کشته خواهی شد.» ۱۱ 11
Then Saul sent messengers to David’s house. He told them to watch the house and to kill David [while he was leaving the house] the following morning. But David’s wife Michal [saw them and] warned him, “To survive, you must run away tonight, because if you do not do that, you will be killed tomorrow!”
پس میکال داود را از پنجره فرو هشته، اوروانه شد و فرار کرده، نجات یافت. ۱۲ 12
So she enabled David to climb out through a window, and he ran away and escaped.
اما میکال ترافیم را گرفته، آن را در بستر نهاد و بالینی از پشم بز زیر سرش نهاده، آن را با رخت پوشانید. ۱۳ 13
Then Michal took an idol and put it in the bed. She covered it with some [of David’s] clothes, and put some goat’s hair on the head of the idol.
وچون شاول قاصدان فرستاده تا داود را بگیرند، گفت بیمار است. ۱۴ 14
When the messengers came [to the house the next morning], she told them that David was sick [and could not get out of bed].
پس شاول قاصدان را فرستادتا داود را ببینند و گفت: «او را بر بسترش نزد من بیاورید تا او را بکشم.» ۱۵ 15
[When they reported that to] Saul, he told them to go back to David’s house. He said to them, “Bring him to me lying on his bed, in order that I can kill him!”
و چون قاصدان داخل شدند، اینک ترافیم در بستر و بالین پشم بز زیرسرش بود. ۱۶ 16
But when those men entered David’s house, they saw that there was only an idol in the bed, with goat’s hair on its head.
و شاول به میکال گفت: «برای چه مرا چنین فریب دادی و دشمنم را رها کردی تانجات یابد.» و میکال شاول را جواب داد که او به من گفت: «مرا رها کن؛ برای چه تو را بکشم؟» ۱۷ 17
[When they reported that to Saul, ] Saul [summoned] Michal [and] said to her, “Why did you trick me like that? You allowed my enemy to escape!” Michal replied to Saul, “David told me that if I did not help him escape, he would kill me!” [RHQ]
و داود فرار کرده، رهایی یافت و نزدسموئیل به رامه آمده، از هر‌آنچه شاول با وی کرده بود، او را مخبر ساخت، و او و سموئیل رفته، در نایوت ساکن شدند. ۱۸ 18
After David had escaped from Saul, he went to Samuel, who was [at his home] at Ramah. He told Samuel everything that Saul had done to [try to kill] him. Then David and Samuel went to Naioth, [which was a section] of [Ramah city], and they stayed there.
پس شاول را خبرداده، گفتند: «اینک داود در نایوت رامه است.» ۱۹ 19
Someone told Saul that David was in Naioth.
و شاول قاصدان برای گرفتن داود فرستاد، وچون جماعت انبیا را دیدند که نبوت می‌کنند و سموئیل را که به پیشوایی ایشان ایستاده است، روح خدا بر قاصدان شاول آمده، ایشان نیز نبوت کردند. ۲۰ 20
So Saul sent some messengers to capture David. [When] those messengers [arrived in Ramah, they] met some men who were proclaiming ecstatic messages, and Samuel was there, as their leader. When Saul’s messengers met them, the Spirit of God took control of Saul’s men, and they also spoke ecstatically.
و چون شاول را خبر دادند قاصدان دیگر فرستاده، ایشان نیز نبوت کردند، و شاول بازقاصدان سوم فرستاده، ایشان نیز نبوت کردند. ۲۱ 21
When Saul heard about that, he sent messengers a third time, but they also started to speak ecstatically.
پس خود او نیز به رامه رفت و چون به چاه بزرگ که نزد سیخوه است رسید، سوال کرده، گفت: «سموئیل و داود کجا می‌باشند؟» و کسی گفت: «اینک در نایوت رامه هستند.» ۲۲ 22
Finally, Saul himself went to Ramah. When he arrived at the well at [a place named] Secu, he asked people there, “Where are Samuel and David?” The people replied, “They are at Naioth in Ramah [city].”
و به آنجابه نایوت رامه روانه شد و روح خدا بر او نیز آمد ودر حینی که می‌رفت نبوت می‌کرد تا به نایوت رامه رسید. ۲۳ 23
While Saul was walking toward Naioth, the Spirit of God also took control of him. [While he walked on], he continued speaking ecstatic messages until he came to Naioth.
و او نیز جامه خود را کنده، به حضور سموئیل نبوت می‌کرد و تمامی آن روز وتمامی آن شب برهنه افتاد، بنابراین گفتند: «آیاشاول نیز از‌جمله انبیاست؟» ۲۴ 24
There he took off his clothes, and he spoke messages from God in front of Samuel. He lay on the ground doing that all day and all night. That is the reason that [when people see someone doing something that is very unexpected, they think about what happened to Saul, and] they say, “We are surprised, like the people were surprised to see Saul [acting like] a prophet?” [RHQ]
