< اول سموئیل 30 >

و واقع شد چون داود و کسانش در روزسوم به صقلغ رسیدند که عمالقه برجنوب و بر صقلغ هجوم آورده بودند، و صقلغ رازده آن را به آتش سوزانیده بودند. ۱ 1
Now when David and his men were come to Siceleg on the third day, the Amalecites had made an invasion on the south side upon Siceleg, and had smitten Siceleg, and burnt it with fire.
و زنان و همه کسانی را که در آن بودند از خرد و بزرگ اسیرکرده، هیچ‌کس را نکشته، بلکه همه را به اسیری برده، به راه خود رفته بودند. ۲ 2
And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way.
و چون داود وکسانش به شهر رسیدند، اینک به آتش سوخته، وزنان و پسران و دختران ایشان اسیر شده بودند. ۳ 3
So when David and his men came to the city, and found it burnt with fire, and that their wives and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives,
پس داود و قومی که همراهش بودند آواز خودرا بلند کرده، گریستند تا طاقت گریه کردن دیگرنداشتند. ۴ 4
David and the people that were with him, lifted up their voices, and wept till they had no more tears.
و دو زن داود اخینوعم یزرعیلیه وابیجایل، زن نابال کرملی، اسیر شده بودند. ۵ 5
For the two wives also of David were taken captives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
وداود بسیار مضطرب شد زیرا که قوم می‌گفتند که او را سنگسار کنند، چون جان تمامی قوم هر یک برای پسران و دختران خویش بسیار تلخ شده بود، اما داود خویشتن را از یهوه، خدای خود، تقویت نمود. ۶ 6
And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons, and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God.
و داود به ابیاتار کاهن، پسر اخیملک گفت: «ایفود را نزد من بیاور.» و ابیاتار ایفود را نزد داودآورد. ۷ 7
And he said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech: Bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
و داود از خداوند سوال نموده، گفت: «اگر این فوج را تعاقب نمایم، آیا به آنها خواهم رسید؟» او وی را گفت: «تعاقب نما زیرا که به تحقیق خواهی رسید و رها خواهی کرد.» ۸ 8
And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.
پس داود و ششصد نفر که همراهش بودند روانه شده، به وادی بسور آمدند و واماندگان در آنجا توقف نمودند. ۹ 9
So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.
و داود با چهارصد نفر تعاقب نمود ودویست نفر توقف نمودند زیرا به حدی خسته شده بودند که از وادی بسور نتوانستند گذشت. ۱۰ 10
But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.
پس شخصی مصری در صحرا یافته، او رانزد داود آوردند و به او نان دادند که خورد و او راآب نوشانیدند. ۱۱ 11
And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,
و پاره‌ای از قرص انجیر و دوقرص کشمش به او دادند و چون خورد روحش به وی بازگشت زیرا که سه روز و سه شب نه نان خورده، و نه آب نوشیده بود. ۱۲ 12
As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.
و داود او راگفت: «از آن که هستی و از کجا می‌باشی؟» اوگفت: «من جوان مصری و بنده شخص عمالیقی هستم، و آقایم مرا ترک کرده است زیرا سه روزاست که بیمار شده‌ام. ۱۳ 13
And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.
ما به جنوب کریتیان و برملک یهودا و بر جنوب کالیب تاخت آوردیم. صقلغ را به آتش سوزانیدیم.» ۱۴ 14
For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.
داود وی راگفت: «آیا مرا به آن گروه خواهی رسانید؟» اوگفت: «برای من به خدا قسم بخور که نه مرا بکشی و نه مرا به‌دست آقایم تسلیم کنی، پس تو را نزدآن گروه خواهم رسانید.» ۱۵ 15
And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.
و چون او را به آنجا رسانید اینک بر روی تمامی زمین منتشر شده، می‌خوردند ومی نوشیدند و بزم می‌کردند، به‌سبب تمامی غنیمت عظیمی که از زمین فلسطینیان و از زمین یهودا آورده بودند. ۱۶ 16
And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.
و داود ایشان را از وقت شام تا عصر روز دیگر می‌زد که از ایشان احدی رهایی نیافت جز چهارصد مرد جوان که بر شتران سوار شده، گریختند. ۱۷ 17
And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled.
و داود هرچه عمالقه گرفته بودند، بازگرفت و داود دو زن خود را بازگرفت. ۱۸ 18
So David recovered all that the Amalecites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.
و چیزی از ایشان مفقود نشد از خرد وبزرگ و از پسران و دختران و غنیمت و از همه چیزهایی که برای خود گرفته بودند، بلکه داودهمه را باز آورد. ۱۹ 19
And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.
و داود همه گوسفندان وگاوان خود را گرفت و آنها را پیش مواشی دیگرراندند و گفتند این است غنیمت داود. ۲۰ 20
And he took all the flocks and the herds, and made them go before him: and they said: This is the prey of David.
و داود نزد آن دویست نفر که از شدت خستگی نتوانسته بودند در عقب داود بروند وایشان را نزد وادی بسور واگذاشته بودند آمد، وایشان به استقبال داود و به استقبال قومی که همراهش بودند بیرون آمدند، و چون داود نزدقوم رسید از سلامتی ایشان پرسید. ۲۱ 21
And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him. And David coming to the people saluted them peaceably.
اما جمیع کسان شریر و مردان بلیعال از اشخاصی که با داودرفته بودند متکلم شده، گفتند: «چونکه همراه مانیامدند، از غنیمتی که باز آورده‌ایم چیزی به ایشان نخواهیم داد مگر به هر کس زن و فرزندان او را. پس آنها را برداشته، بروند.» ۲۲ 22
Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.
لیکن داودگفت: «ای برادرانم چنین مکنید چونکه خداونداینها را به ما داده است و ما را حفظ نموده، آن فوج را که بر ما تاخت آورده بودند به‌دست ماتسلیم نموده است. ۲۳ 23
But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.
و کیست که در این امر به شما گوش دهد زیرا قسمت آنانی که نزد اسباب می‌مانند مثل قسمت آنانی که به جنگ می‌روند، خواهد بود و هر دو قسمت مساوی خواهند برد.» ۲۴ 24
And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.
و از آن روز به بعد چنین شد که این را قاعده وقانون در اسرائیل تا امروز قرار داد. ۲۵ 25
And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.
و چون داود به صقلغ رسید، بعضی ازغنیمت را برای مشایخ یهودا و دوستان خودفرستاده، گفت: «اینک هدیه‌ای از غنیمت دشمنان خداوند برای شماست.» ۲۶ 26
Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.
برای اهل بیت ئیل و اهل راموت جنوبی و اهل یتیر؛ ۲۷ 27
To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,
وبرای اهل عروعیر و اهل سفموت و اهل اشتموع؛ ۲۸ 28
And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,
و برای اهل راکال و اهل شهرهای یرحمئیلیان و اهل شهرهای قینیان؛ ۲۹ 29
And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,
و برای اهل حرما و اهل کورعاشان و اهل عتاق؛ ۳۰ 30
And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,
و برای اهل حبرون و جمیع مکانهایی که داود و کسانش درآنها آمد و رفت می‌کردند. ۳۱ 31
And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.
