موت شاول | |
| 1 وَكَانَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ شَاوُلَ وَرُجُوعِ دَاوُدَ مِنْ مُضَارَبَةِ الْعَمَالِقَةِ، أَنَّ دَاوُدَ أَقَامَ فِي صِقْلَغَ يَوْمَيْنِ. | 1 Now it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had abode two days in Ziklag; |
|
| 2 وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ إِذَا بِرَجُل أَتَى مِنَ الْمَحَلَّةِ مِنْ عِنْدِ شَاوُلَ وَثِيَابُهُ مُمَزَّقَةٌ وَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ تُرَابٌ. فَلَمَّا جَاءَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ خَرَّ إِلَى الأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ. | 2 It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance. |
|
| 3 فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَتَيْتَ؟» فَقَالَ لَهُ: «مِنْ مَحَلَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَجَوْتُ». | 3 And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped. |
|
| 4 فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ كَانَ الأَمْرُ؟ أَخْبِرْنِي». فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ الشَّعْبَ قَدْ هَرَبَ مِنَ الْقِتَالِ، وَسَقَطَ أَيْضًا كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ وَمَاتُوا، وَمَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ ابْنُهُ أَيْضًا». | 4 And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, That the people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also. |
|
| 5 فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلْغُلاَمِ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «كَيْفَ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ ابْنُهُ؟» | 5 And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son be dead? |
|
| 6 فَقَالَ الْغُلاَمُ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «اتَّفَقَ أَنِّي كُنْتُ فِي جَبَلِ جِلْبُوعَ وَإِذَا شَاوُلُ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى رُمْحِهِ، وَإِذَا بِالْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَالْفُرْسَانِ يَشُدُّونَ وَرَاءَهُ. | 6 And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. |
|
| 7 فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ فَرَآنِي وَدَعَانِي فَقُلْتُ: هأَنَذَا. | 7 And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here am I. |
|
| 8 فَقَالَ لِي: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: عَمَالِيقِيٌّ أَنَا. | 8 And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. |
|
| 9 فَقَالَ لِي: قِفْ عَلَيَّ وَاقْتُلْنِي لأَنَّهُ قَدِ اعْتَرَانِيَ الدُّوَارُ، لأَنَّ كُلَّ نَفْسِي بَعْدُ فِيَّ. | 9 He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me. |
|
| 10 فَوَقَفْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَتَلْتُهُ لأَنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ لاَ يَعِيشُ بَعْدَ سُقُوطِهِ، وَأَخَذْتُ الإِكْلِيلَ الَّذِي عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَالسِّوارَ الَّذِي عَلَى ذِرَاعِهِ وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمَا إِلَى سَيِّدِي ههُنَا». | 10 So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord. |
|
| 11 فَأَمْسَكَ دَاوُدُ ثِيَابَهُ وَمَزَّقَهَا، وَكَذَا جَمِيعُ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُ. | 11 Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him: |
|
| 12 وَنَدَبُوا وَبَكَوْا وَصَامُوا إِلَى الْمَسَاءِ عَلَى شَاوُلَ وَعَلَى يُونَاثَانَ ابْنِهِ، وَعَلَى شَعْبِ الرَّبِّ وَعَلَى بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لأَنَّهُمْ سَقَطُوا بِالسَّيْفِ. | 12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. |
|
| 13 ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلْغُلاَمِ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا ابْنُ رَجُل غَرِيبٍ، عَمَالِيقِيٌّ». | 13 And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. |
|
| 14 فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ لَمْ تَخَفْ أَنْ تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ لِتُهْلِكَ مَسِيحَ الرَّبِّ؟». | 14 And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the LORD's anointed? |
|
| 15 ثُمَّ دَعَا دَاوُدُ وَاحِدًا مِنَ الْغِلْمَانِ وَقَالَ: «تَقَدَّمْ. أَوْقِعْ بِهِ». فَضَرَبَهُ فَمَاتَ. | 15 And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died. |
|
| 16 فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «دَمُكَ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ لأَنَّ فَمَكَ شَهِدَ عَلَيْكَ قَائِلاً: أَنَا قَتَلْتُ مَسِيحَ الرَّبِّ». | 16 And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the LORD's anointed. |
|

| 17 وَرَثَا دَاوُدُ بِهذِهِ الْمَرْثَاةِ شَاوُلَ وَيُونَاثَانَ ابْنَهُ، | 17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son: |
|
| 18 وَقَالَ أَنْ يَتَعَلَّمَ بَنُو يَهُوذَا «نَشِيدَ الْقَوْسِ». هُوَذَا ذلِكَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي سِفْرِ يَاشَرَ: | 18 (Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher.) |
|
| 19 «اَلظَّبْيُ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ مَقْتُولٌ عَلَى شَوَامِخِكَ. كَيْفَ سَقَطَ الْجَبَابِرَةُ! | 19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen! |
|
| 20 لاَ تُخْبِرُوا فِي جَتَّ. لاَ تُبَشِّرُوا فِي أَسْوَاقِ أَشْقَلُونَ، لِئَلاَّ تَفْرَحَ بَنَاتُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، لِئَلاَّ تَشْمَتَ بَنَاتُ الْغُلْفِ. | 20 Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph. |
|
21 يَا جِبَالَ جِلْبُوعَ لاَ يَكُنْ طَلٌّ وَلاَ مَطَرٌ عَلَيْكُنَّ، وَلاَ حُقُولُ تَقْدِمَاتٍ، لأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ طُرِحَ مِجَنُّ الْجَبَابِرَةِ، مِجَنُّ شَاوُلَ بِلاَ مَسْحٍ بِالدُّهْنِ.  | 21 Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil. |
|
| 22 مِنْ دَمِ الْقَتْلَى، مِنْ شَحْمِ الْجَبَابِرَةِ لَمْ تَرْجعْ قَوْسُ يُونَاثَانَ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ، وَسَيْفُ شَاوُلَ لَمْ يَرْجعْ خَائِبًا. | 22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. |
|
| 23 شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ الْمَحْبُوبَانِ وَالْحُلْوَانِ فِي حَيَاتِهِمَا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا فِي مَوْتِهِمَا. أَخَفُّ مِنَ النُّسُورِ وَأَشَدُّ مِنَ الأُسُودِ. | 23 Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions. |
|
| 24 يَا بَنَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ابْكِينَ شَاوُلَ الَّذِي أَلْبَسَكُنَّ قِرْمِزًا بِالتَّنَعُّمِ، وَجَعَلَ حُلِيَّ الذَّهَبِ عَلَى مَلاَبِسِكُنَّ. | 24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel. |
|
| 25 كَيْفَ سَقَطَ الْجَبَابِرَةُ فِي وَسَطِ الْحَرْبِ! يُونَاثَانُ عَلَى شَوَامِخِكَ مَقْتُولٌ. | 25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! O Jonathan, thou wast slain in thine high places. |
|
| 26 قَدْ تَضَايَقْتُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَخِي يُونَاثَانُ. كُنْتَ حُلْوًا لِي جِدًّا. مَحَبَّتُكَ لِي أَعْجَبُ مِنْ مَحَبَّةِ النِّسَاءِ. | 26 I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women. |
|
| 27 كَيْفَ سَقَطَ الْجَبَابِرَةُ وَبَادَتْ آلاَتُ الْحَرْبِ!». | 27 How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished! |
