Notes on this text (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).
1 Οι δε Φιλισταίοι επολέμουν κατά του Ισραήλ· και έφυγον οι άνδρες του Ισραήλ από προσώπου των Φιλισταίων και έπεσον πεφονευμένοι εν τω όρει Γελβουέ.
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 Και καταφθάσαντες οι Φιλισταίοι οπίσω του Σαούλ και οπίσω των υιών αυτού, επάταξαν οι Φιλισταίοι τον Ιωνάθαν και τον Αβιναδάβ και τον Μαλχί-σουέ, τους υιούς του Σαούλ.
2 The Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 Εβάρυνε δε η μάχη επί τον Σαούλ, και επέτυχον αυτού οι τοξόται, και επληγώθη υπό των τοξοτών.
3 The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed by reason of the archers.
4 Και είπεν ο Σαούλ προς τον οπλοφόρον αυτού, Σύρε την ρομφαίαν σου και διαπέρασόν με δι' αυτής, διά να μη έλθωσιν ούτοι οι απερίτμητοι και με εμπαίξωσι· πλην ο οπλοφόρος αυτού δεν ήθελε· διότι εφοβείτο σφόδρα. Όθεν έλαβεν ο Σαούλ την ρομφαίαν και έπεσεν επ' αυτήν.
4 Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on it.
5 Και ως είδεν ο οπλοφόρος αυτού ότι απέθανεν ο Σαούλ, έπεσε και αυτός επί την ρομφαίαν και απέθανεν·
5 When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword and died.
6 ούτως απέθανεν ο Σαούλ και οι τρεις υιοί αυτού· και πας ο οίκος αυτού απέθανεν ομού.
6 So Saul died with his three sons; and all his house died together.
7 Και πάντες οι άνδρες Ισραήλ, οι εν τη κοιλάδι, ιδόντες ότι έφευγον και ότι ο Σαούλ και οι υιοί αυτού απέθανον, τότε κατέλιπον τας πόλεις αυτών και έφυγον· και ελθόντες οι Φιλισταίοι κατώκησαν εν αυταίς.
7 When all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 Και την επαύριον, ότε ήλθον οι Φιλισταίοι διά να εκδύσωσι τους πεφονευμένους, εύρηκαν τον Σαούλ και τους υιούς αυτού πεπτωκότας εν τώ όρει Γελβουέ.
8 On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 Και εξέδυσαν αυτόν και έλαβον την κεφαλήν αυτού και τα όπλα αυτού και απέστειλαν εις την γην των Φιλισταίων κύκλω, διά να διαδώσωσι την αγγελίαν εις τα είδωλα αυτών και εις τον λαόν.
9 They stripped him and took his head and his armor, then sent into the land of the Philistines all around to carry the news to their idols and to the people.
10 Και ανέθεσαν τα όπλα αυτού εις τον οίκον των θεών αυτών· και εις τον ναόν του Δαγών προσήλωσαν την κεφαλήν αυτού.
10 They put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
11 Ακούσαντες δε πάντες οι κάτοικοι της Ιαβείς-γαλαάδ πάντα όσα έκαμον οι Φιλισταίοι εις τον Σαούλ,
11 When all Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 ηγέρθησαν πάντες οι δυνατοί άνδρες και εσήκωσαν το σώμα του Σαούλ και τα σώματα των υιών αυτού και έφεραν αυτά εις Ιαβείς, και έθαψαν τα οστά αυτών υπό την δρυν εν Ιαβείς και ενήστευσαν επτά ημέρας.
12 all the valiant men arose and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 Ούτως απέθανεν ο Σαούλ, διά την ανομίαν αυτού την οποίαν ηνόμησεν εις τον Κύριον, εναντίον του λόγου του Κυρίου, τον οποίον δεν εφύλαξε· και έτι διότι εζήτησεν άνθρωπον έχοντα πνεύμα μαντείας, διά να ερωτήση,
13 So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against Yahweh, because of Yahweh’s word, which he didn’t keep, and also because he asked counsel of one who had a familiar spirit, to inquire,
14 και δεν ηρώτησε τον Κύριον· διά τούτο εθανάτωσεν αυτόν και έστρεψε την βασιλείαν εις τον Δαβίδ τον υιόν του Ιεσσαί.
14 and didn’t inquire of Yahweh. Therefore he killed him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
