WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Y ACONTECIÓ después de la muerte de Saúl, que vuelto David de la derrota de los Amalecitas, estuvo dos días en Siclag:
1 After the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in Ziklag,
2 Y al tercer día acaeció, que vino uno del campo de Saúl, rotos sus vestidos, y tierra sobre su cabeza: y llegando á David, postróse en tierra, é hizo reverencia.
2 on the third day, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and earth on his head. When he came to David, he fell to the earth and showed respect.
3 Y preguntóle David: ¿De dónde vienes? Y él respondió: Heme escapado del campo de Israel.
3 David said to him, “Where do you come from?” He said to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
4 Y David le dijo: ¿Qué ha acontecido? ruégote que me lo digas. Y él respondió: El pueblo huyó de la batalla, y también muchos del pueblo cayeron y son muertos: también Saúl y Jonathán su hijo murieron.
4 David said to him, “How did it go? Please tell me.” He answered, “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead. Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.”
5 Y dijo David á aquel mancebo que le daba las nuevas: ¿Cómo sabes que Saúl es muerto, y Jonathán su hijo?
5 David said to the young man who told him, “How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?”
6 Y el mancebo que le daba las nuevas respondió: Casualmente vine al monte de Gilboa, y hallé á Saúl que estaba recostado sobre su lanza, y venían tras él carros y gente de á caballo.
6 The young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance on Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and the horsemen followed close behind him.
7 Y como él miró atrás, vióme y llamóme; y yo dije: Heme aquí.
7 When he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. I answered, ‘Here I am.’
8 Y él me dijo: ¿Quién eres tú? Y yo le respondí: Soy Amalecita.
8 He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
9 Y él me volvió á decir: Yo te ruego que te pongas sobre mí, y me mates, porque me toman angustias, y toda mi alma está aún en mí.
9 He said to me, ‘Please stand beside me, and kill me, for anguish has taken hold of me because my life lingers in me.’
10 Yo entonces púseme sobre él, y matélo, porque sabía que no podía vivir después de su caída: y tomé la corona que tenía en su cabeza, y la ajorca que traía en su brazo, y helas traído acá á mi señor.
10 So I stood beside him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.”
11 Entonces David trabando de sus vestidos, rompiólos; y lo mismo hicieron los hombres que estaban con él.
11 Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them; and all the men who were with him did likewise.
12 Y lloraron y lamentaron, y ayunaron hasta la tarde, por Saúl y por Jonathán su hijo, y por el pueblo de Jehová, y por la casa de Israel: porque habían caído á cuchillo.
12 They mourned, wept, and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Yahweh, and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Y David dijo á aquel mancebo que le había traído las nuevas: ¿De dónde eres tú? Y él respondió: Yo soy hijo de un extranjero, Amalecita.
13 David said to the young man who told him, “Where are you from?” He answered, “I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite.”
14 Y díjole David: ¿Cómo no tuviste temor de extender tu mano para matar al ungido de Jehová?
14 David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to stretch out your hand to destroy Yahweh’s anointed?”
15 Entonces llamó David uno de los mancebos, y díjole: Llega, y mátalo. Y él lo hirió, y murió.
15 David called one of the young men and said, “Go near, and cut him down!” He struck him so that he died.
16 Y David le dijo: Tu sangre sea sobre tu cabeza, pues que tu boca atestiguó contra ti, diciendo: Yo maté al ungido de Jehová.
16 David said to him, “Your blood be on your head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I have slain Yahweh’s anointed.’”
17 Y endechó David á Saúl y á Jonathán su hijo con esta endecha.
17 David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son
18 (Dijo también que enseñasen al arco á los hijos de Judá. He aquí que está escrito en el libro del derecho:)
18 (and he commanded them to teach the children of Judah the song of the bow; behold, it is written in the book of Jashar):
19 ¡Perecido ha la gloria de Israel sobre tus montañas! ¡Cómo han caído los valientes!
19 “Your glory, Israel, was slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen!
20 No lo denunciéis en Gath, no deis las nuevas en las plazas de Ascalón; porque no se alegren las hijas de los Filisteos, porque no salten de gozo las hijas de los incircuncisos.
20 Don’t tell it in Gath. Don’t publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 Montes de Gilboa, ni rocío ni lluvia [caiga] sobre vosotros, ni [seáis] tierras de ofrendas; porque allí fué desechado el escudo de los valientes, el escudo de Saúl, como si no hubiera sido ungido con aceite.
21 You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain on you, and no fields of offerings; for there the shield of the mighty was defiled and cast away, the shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
22 Sin sangre de muertos, sin grosura de valientes, el arco de Jonathán nunca volvió, ni la espada de Saúl se tornó vacía.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan’s bow didn’t turn back. Saul’s sword didn’t return empty.
23 Saúl y Jonathán, amados y queridos en su vida, en su muerte tampoco fueron apartados: más ligeros que águilas, más fuertes que leones.
23 Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives. In their death, they were not divided. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.
24 Hijas de Israel, llorad sobre Saúl, que os vestía de escarlata en regocijos, que adornaba vuestras ropas con ornamentos de oro.
24 You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you delicately in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.
25 ¡Cómo han caído los valientes en medio de la batalla! ¡Jonathán, muerto en tus alturas!
25 How the mighty have fallen in the middle of the battle! Jonathan was slain on your high places.
26 Angustia tengo por ti, hermano mío Jonathán, que me fuiste muy dulce: más maravilloso me fué tu amor, que el amor de las mujeres.
26 I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love to me was wonderful, surpassing the love of women.
27 ¡Cómo han caído los valientes, y perecieron las armas de guerra!
27 How the mighty have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished!”
