Brenton Brenton's English Septuagint
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 And the Philistines gather their armies to battle, and gather themselves to Socchoth of Judæa, and encamp between Socchoth and Azeca Ephermen.
1 Y LOS Filisteos juntaron sus ejércitos para la guerra, y congregáronse en Sochô, que es de Judá, y asentaron el campo entre Sochô y Azeca, en Ephes-dammim.
2 And Saul and the men of Israel gather together, and they encamp in the valley, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
2 Y también Saúl y los hombres de Israel se juntaron, y asentaron el campo en el valle del Alcornoque, y ordenaron la batalla contra los Filisteos.
3 And the Philistines stand on the mountain on one side, and Israel stands on the mountain on the other side, and the valley was between them.
3 Y los Filisteos estaban sobre el un monte de la una parte, é Israel estaba sobre el otro monte de la otra parte, y el valle entre ellos:
4 And there went forth a mighty man out of the army of the Philistines, Goliath by name, out of Geth, his height [was] four cubits and a span.
4 Salió entonces un varón del campo de los Filisteos [que se puso] entre los dos [campos], el cual se llamaba Goliath, de Gath, y tenía de altura seis codos y un palmo.
5 And [he had] a helmet upon his head, and he wore a breastplate of chain armour; and the weight of his breastplate [was] five thousand shekels of brass and iron.
5 Y traía un almete de acero en su cabeza, é [iba] vestido con corazas de planchas: y era el peso de la coraza cinco mil siclos de metal:
6 And greaves of brass [were] upon his legs, and a brazen target [was] between his shoulders.
6 Y sobre sus piernas traía grebas de hierro, y escudo de acero á sus hombros.
7 And the staff of his spear [was] like a weavers' beam, and the spear's head [was formed] of six hundred shekels of iron; and his armour-bearer went before him.
7 El asta de su lanza era como un enjullo de telar, y tenía el hierro de su lanza seiscientos siclos de hierro: é iba su escudero delante de él.
8 And he stood and cried to the army of Israel, and said to them, Why are ye come forth to set yourselves in battle array against us? Am not I a Philistine, and ye Hebrews of Saul? choose for yourselves a man, and let him come down to me.
8 Y paróse, y dió voces á los escuadrones de Israel, diciéndoles: ¿Para qué salís á dar batalla? ¿no soy yo el Filisteo, y vosotros los siervos de Saúl? Escoged de entre vosotros un hombre que venga contra mí:
9 And if he shall be able to fight against me, and shall smite me, then will we be your servants: but if I should prevail and smite him, ye shall be our servants, and serve us.
9 Si él pudiere pelear conmigo, y me venciere, nosotros seremos vuestros siervos: y si yo pudiere más que él, y lo venciere, vosotros seréis nuestros siervos y nos serviréis.
10 And the Philistine said, Behold, I have defied the armies of Israel this very day: give me a man, and we will both of us fight in single combat.
10 Y añadió el Filisteo: Hoy yo he desafiado el campo de Israel; dadme un hombre que pelee conmigo.
11 And Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, and they were dismayed, and greatly terrified.
11 Y oyendo Saúl y todo Israel estas palabras del Filisteo, conturbáronse, y tuvieron gran miedo.
12 [And David son of an Ephrathite said, this Ephrathite was of Bethleem Juda, and his name was Jessae, and he had eight sons. And the man passed for an old man among men in the days of Saul. ]
12 Y David era hijo de aquel hombre Ephrateo de Beth-lehem de Judá, cuyo nombre era Isaí, el cual tenía ocho hijos; y era este hombre en el tiempo de Saúl, viejo, y de grande edad entre los hombres.
13 [And the three elder sons of Jessae went and followed Saul to the war, and the ] [names of his sons that went to the war were, Eliab his first-born, and his second Aminadab, and his third son Samma. ]
13 Y los tres hijos mayores de Isaí habían ido á seguir á Saúl en la guerra. Y los nombres de sus tres hijos que habían ido á la guerra, eran, Eliab el primogénito, el segundo Abinadab, y el tercero Samma.
14 [And David himself ] [was the younger son, and the three elder followed Saul. ]
14 Y David era el menor. Siguieron pues los tres mayores á Saúl.
15 [And David departed and returned from Saul, ] [to feed his father’s sheep in Bethleem; ]
15 Empero David había ido y vuelto de con Saúl, para apacentar las ovejas de su padre en Beth-lehem.
16 [And the Philistine advanced morning and evening, and stood up forty days. ]
16 Venía pues aquel Filisteo por la mañana y á la tarde, y presentóse por cuarenta días.
17 [And Jessae said to David, Take now to thy brethren an ephah of this meal, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp and give them to thy brothers. ]
17 Y dijo Isaí á David su hijo: Toma ahora para tus hermanos un epha de este grano tostado, y estos diez panes, y llévalo presto al campamento á tus hermanos.
18 [And thou shalt carry to the captain of the thousand ] [these ten cheeses of milk, and thou shalt see how thy brethren fare, and learn what they want. ]
18 Llevarás asimismo estos diez quesos de leche al capitán, y cuida de ver si tus hermanos están buenos, y toma prendas de ellos.
19 [And Saul himself and all the men of Israel were in the valley of the Oak, warring with the Philistines. ]
19 Y Saúl y ellos y todos lo de Israel, estaban en el valle del Alcornoque, peleando con los Filisteos.
20 [And David rose early in the morning, and left the sheep to a keeper, and took and went as Jessae commanded him, and he came to the trench and to the army as it was going out to fight, and they shouted for the battle. ]
20 Levantóse pues David de mañana, y dejando las ovejas al cuidado de un guarda, fuése con su carga, como Isaí le había mandado; y llegó al atrincheramiento del ejército, el cual había salido en ordenanza, y tocaba alarma para la pelea.
21 [And Israel and the Philistines formed their lines one opposite the other. ]
21 Porque así los Israelitas como los Filisteos estaban en ordenanza, escuadrón contra escuadrón.
22 [And David deposited his burden in the hand of a keeper, and ran to the line, and went and asked his brethren how they Were. ]
22 Y David dejó de sobre sí la carga en mano del que guardaba el bagaje, y corrió al escuadrón; y llegado que hubo, preguntaba por sus hermanos, si estaban buenos.
23 [And while he was speaking with them, behold the Amessaean advanced, Goliath by name, the Philistine of Geth, of the armies of the Philistines, and he spoke ] [as before, and David heard. ]
23 Y estando él hablando con ellos, he aquí aquel varón que se ponía en medio de los dos [campos], que se llamaba Goliath, el Filisteo de Gath, salió de los escuadrones de los Filisteos, y habló las mismas palabras; las cuales oyó David.
24 [And all the men of Israel when they saw the man fled from before him, and they were greatly terrified. ]
24 Y todos los varones de Israel que veían aquel hombre, huían de su presencia, y tenían gran temor.
25 [And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that comes up? for he has reproached Israel and has come up; and it shall be that the man who shall smite him, the king shall enrich him with great wealth and shall give him his daughter, and shall make his father’s house free in Israel. ]
25 Y cada uno de los de Israel decía: ¿No habéis visto aquel hombre que ha salido? él se adelanta para provocar á Israel. Al que le venciere, el rey le enriquecerá con grandes riquezas, y le dará su hija, y hará franca la casa de su padre en Israel.
26 [and David spoke to the men who stood with him saying, Shall it indeed be done thus to the man who shall smite that Philistine, and take away reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he has defied the army of the living God? ]
26 Entonces habló David á los que junto á él estaban, diciendo: ¿Qué harán al hombre que venciere á este Filisteo, y quitare el oprobio de Israel? Porque ¿quién es este Filisteo incircunciso, para que provoque á los escuadrones del Dios viviente?
27 [And the people spoke to him according to this Word, saying Thus shall it be done to the man Who shall smite him. ]
27 Y el pueblo le respondió las mismas palabras, diciendo: Así se hará al hombre que lo venciere.
28 [And Eliab his elder brother heard as he spoke to the men, and Eliab was very angry with David and said, Why hast thou thus come down, and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride and the naughtiness of thine heart, for thou art come down to see the battle. ]
28 Y oyéndole hablar Eliab su hermano mayor con aquellos hombres, Eliab se encendió en ira contra David, y dijo: ¿Para qué has descendido acá? ¿y á quién has dejado aquellas pocas ovejas en el desierto? Yo conozco tu soberbia y la malicia de tu corazón, que para ver la batalla has venido.
29 [And David said what have I done now? ] [Have I no business here? ]
29 Y David respondió: ¿Qué he hecho yo ahora? Estas, ¿no son palabras?
30 [And he turned from him towards another, and he spoke after the same manner; and the people answered him ] [after the former manner. ]
30 Y apartándose de él hacia otros, habló lo mismo; y respondiéronle los del pueblo como primero.
31 [And the Words which David spoke were heard and were reported ] [to Saul. And he took him to himself. ]
31 Y fueron oídas las palabras que David había dicho, las cuales como refiriesen delante de Saúl, él lo hizo venir.
32 And David said to Saul, Let not, I pray thee, the heart of my lord be dejected within him: thy servant will go, and fight with this Philistine.
32 Y dijo David á Saúl: No desmaye ninguno á causa de él; tu siervo irá y peleará con este Filisteo.
33 And Saul said to David, Thou wilt not in anywise be able to go against this Philistine to fight with him, for thou art a mere youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
33 Y dijo Saúl á David: No podrás tú ir contra aquel Filisteo, para pelear con él; porque tú eres mozo, y él un hombre de guerra desde su juventud.
34 And David said to Saul, Thy servant was tending the flock for his father; and when a lion came and a she-bear, and took a sheep out of the flock,
34 Y David respondió á Saúl: Tu siervo era pastor en las ovejas de su padre, y venía un león, ó un oso, y tomaba [algún] cordero de la manada,
35 then I went forth after him, and smote him, and drew [the spoil] out of his mouth: and as he rose up against me, then I caught hold of his throat, and smote him, and slew him.
35 Y salía yo tras él, y heríalo, y librábale de su boca: y si se levantaba contra mí, yo le echaba mano de la quijada, y lo hería y mataba.
36 Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear, and the uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them: shall I not go and smite him, and remove this day a reproach from Israel? for who [is] this uncircumcised one, who has defied the army of the living God?
36 Fuese león, fuese oso, tu siervo lo mataba; pues este Filisteo incircunciso será como uno de ellos, porque ha provocado al ejército del Dios viviente.
37 The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this uncircumcised Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord shall be with thee.
37 Y añadió David: Jehová que me ha librado de las garras del león y de las garras del oso, él también me librará de la mano de este Filisteo. Y dijo Saúl á David: Ve, y Jehová sea contigo.
38 And Saul clothed David with a military coat, and [put] his brazen helmet on his head.
38 Y Saúl vistió á David de sus ropas, y puso sobre su cabeza un almete de acero, y armóle de coraza.
39 And he girt David with his sword over his coat: and he made trial walking [with them] once and again: and David said to Saul, I shall not be able to go with these, for I have not proved [them]: so they remove them from him.
39 Y ciñó David su espada sobre sus vestidos, y probó á andar, porque nunca había probado. Y dijo David á Saúl: Yo no puedo andar con esto, porque nunca lo practiqué. Y echando de sí David aquellas cosas,
40 And he took his staff in his hand, and he chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's scrip which he had for his store, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.
40 Tomó su cayado en su mano, y escogióse cinco piedras lisas del arroyo, y púsolas en el saco pastoril y en el zurrón que traía, y con su honda en su mano vase hacia el Filisteo. 41 Y el Filisteo venía andando y acercándose á David, y su escudero delante de él.
42 And Goliath saw David, and despised him; for he was a lad, and ruddy, with a fair countenance.
42 Y como el Filisteo miró y vió á David túvole en poco; porque era mancebo, y rubio, y de hermoso parecer.
43 And the Philistine said to David, Am I as a dog, that thou comest against me with a staff and stones? [and David said, Nay, but worse than a dog.] And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
43 Y dijo el Filisteo á David: ¿Soy yo perro para que vengas á mí con palos? Y maldijo á David por sus dioses.
44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
44 Dijo luego el Filisteo á David: Ven á mí, y daré tu carne á las aves del cielo, y á las bestias del campo.
45 And David said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with sword, and with spear, and with shield; but I come to thee in the name of the Lord God of hosts of the army of Israel, which thou hast defied
45 Entonces dijo David al Filisteo: Tú vienes á mí con espada y lanza y escudo; mas yo vengo á ti en el nombre de Jehová de los ejércitos, el Dios de los escuadrones de Israel, que tú has provocado.
46 this day. And the Lord shall deliver thee this day into my hand; and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from off thee, and will give thy limbs and the limbs of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that there is a God in Israel.
46 Jehová te entregará hoy en mi mano, y yo te venceré, y quitaré tu cabeza de ti: y daré hoy los cuerpos de los Filisteos á las aves del cielo y á las bestias de la tierra: y sabrá la tierra toda que hay Dios en Israel.
47 And all this assembly shall know that the Lord delivers not by sword or spear, for the battle [is] the Lord's, and the Lord will deliver you into our hands.
47 Y sabrá toda esta congregación que Jehová no salva con espada y lanza; porque de Jehová es la guerra, y él os entregará en nuestras manos.
48 And the Philistine arose and went to meet David.
48 Y aconteció que, como el Filisteo se levantó para ir y llegarse contra David, David se dió priesa, y corrió al combate contra el Filisteo.
49 And David stretched out his hand to his scrip, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone penetrated through the helmet into his forehead, and he fell upon his face to the ground.
49 Y metiendo David su mano en el saco, tomó de allí una piedra, y tirósela con la honda, é hirió al Filisteo en la frente: y la piedra quedó hincada en la frente, y cayó en tierra sobre su rostro. 50 Así venció David al Filisteo con honda y piedra; é hirió al Filisteo y matólo, sin tener David espada en su mano.
51 And David ran, and stood upon him, and took his sword, and slew him, and cut off his head: and the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, and they fled.
51 Mas corrió David y púsose sobre el Filisteo, y tomando la espada de él, sacándola de su vaina, matólo, y cortóle con ella la cabeza. Y como los Filisteos vieron su gigante muerto, huyeron.
52 And the men of Israel and Juda arose, and shouted and pursued them as far as the entrance to Geth, and as far as the gate of Ascalon: and the slain men of the Philistines fell in the way of the gates, both to Geth, and to Accaron.
52 Y levantándose los de Israel y de Judá, dieron grita, y siguieron á los Filisteos hasta llegar al valle, y hasta las puertas de Ecrón. Y cayeron heridos de los Filisteos por el camino de Saraim, hasta Gath y Ecrón.
53 And the men of Israel returned from pursuing after the Philistines, and they destroyed their camp.
53 Tornando luego los hijos de Israel de seguir los Filisteos, despojaron su campamento.
54 And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.
54 Y David tomó la cabeza del Filisteo, y trájola á Jerusalem, mas puso sus armas en su tienda. 55 Y cuando Saúl vió á David que salía á encontrarse con el Filisteo, dijo á Abner general del ejército: Abner, ¿de quién es hijo aquel mancebo? Y Abner respondió: 56 Vive tu alma, oh rey, que no lo sé. Y el rey dijo: Pregunta pues de quién es hijo aquel mancebo. 57 Y cuando David volvía de matar al Filisteo, Abner lo tomó, y llevólo delante de Saúl, teniendo la cabeza del Filisteo en su mano. 58 Y díjole Saúl: Mancebo, ¿de quién eres hijo? Y David respondió: Yo soy hijo de tu siervo Isaí de Beth-lehem.
