1 Mientras tanto, los filisteos habían comenzado la batalla contra Israel, y los israelitas huyeron de ellos dejando muchos muertos sobre el monte Guilboa.
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 cercaron a Saúl y dieron muerte a sus hijos Jonatán, Abinadab y Malquisúa.
2 The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 Luego los arqueros alcanzaron a Saúl y le 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 El rogó a su escudero: «Mátame con tu espada antes que estos paganos filisteos me capturen y me torturen». Pero como su escudero tenía miedo también, no quiso hacerlo. Entonces Saúl tomó su propia espada y se arrojó contra la punta de su hoja de modo que lo atravesó.
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 estaba muerto, él también se arrojó sobre su espada y murió junto a él.
5 When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him.
6 Así es que Saúl, su escudero, sus tres hijos y muchos de sus soldados murieron el mismo día.
6 So Saul died with his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men that same day together.
7 Cuando los israelitas del otro lado del valle y de más allá del Jordán oyeron que sus guerreros habían huido, y que Saúl y sus hijos estaban muertos, abandonaron las ciudades y los filisteos las tomaron.
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, cuando los filisteos salieron a despojar a los muertos, encontraron los cadáveres de Saúl y sus tres hijos en el monte Guilboa.
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 a Saúl y le quitaron la armadura, y enviaron mensajeros con la noticia de la muerte de Saúl a los templos de sus ídolos y al 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 La armadura de Saúl fue puesta en el templo de Astarté, y colgaron el cuerpo en el muro de Betsán.
10 They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.
11 Pero cuando el pueblo de Jabés de Galaad oyó lo que los filisteos habían hecho,
11 When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 algunos guerreros de aquel pueblo caminaron toda la noche hasta Betsán y bajaron los cuerpos de Saúl y sus hijos del muro y los llevaron hasta Jabés, donde 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 sepultaron sus huesos debajo de una encina en Jabés y ayunaron durante siete días.
13 They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
