1 Los filisteos lucharon contra Israel. Los israelitas huyeron delante de ellos, y muchos cayeron muertos en el monte Gilboa.
1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
2 Los filisteos alcanzaron a Saúl y a sus hijos. Mataron a Jonatán, Abinadab y Malquisúa, hijos de Saúl.
2 The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 La batalla se volvió muy dura contra Saúl. Los arqueros lo encontraron y lo hirieron gravemente.
3 The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers.
4 Entonces Saúl dijo a su escudero: Saca tu espada y atraviésame con ella, antes de que vengan esos incircuncisos y se burlen de mí. Pero su escudero tuvo miedo y no quiso hacerlo. Entonces Saúl tomó su propia espada y se dejó caer sobre ella.
4 Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through and abuse me!” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on it.
5 Cuando el escudero vio que Saúl había muerto, también se dejó caer sobre su espada y murió con él.
5 When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him.
6 Así murieron aquel mismo día Saúl, sus tres hijos y su escudero.
6 So Saul died with his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men that same day together.
7 Cuando los israelitas que estaban al otro lado del valle y al otro lado del Jordán vieron que el ejército de Israel había huido y que Saúl y sus hijos habían muerto, abandonaron sus ciudades y huyeron. Entonces los filisteos llegaron y ocuparon aquellas ciudades.
7 When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 Al día siguiente los filisteos fueron a quitar las pertenencias de los muertos y encontraron a Saúl y a sus tres hijos caídos en el monte Gilboa.
8 On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 Le cortaron la cabeza, le quitaron la armadura y enviaron mensajeros por toda la tierra de los filisteos para anunciar la noticia en los templos de sus dioses y entre el pueblo.
9 They cut off his head, stripped off his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols and to the people.
10 Pusieron la armadura de Saúl en el templo de Astarté y fijaron su cuerpo en el muro de Bet-seán.
10 They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.
11 Cuando los habitantes de Jabes de Galaad oyeron lo que los filisteos habían hecho a Saúl,
11 When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 todos sus guerreros se levantaron, viajaron toda la noche y tomaron del muro de Bet-seán el cuerpo de Saúl y los cuerpos de sus hijos. Los llevaron a Jabes y allí los quemaron.
12 all the valiant men arose, went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.
13 Después tomaron sus huesos, los enterraron debajo de un árbol en Jabes y ayunaron durante siete días.
13 They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
