< صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلثَّانِي 1 >
وَكَانَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ شَاوُلَ وَرُجُوعِ دَاوُدَ مِنْ مُضَارَبَةِ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةِ، أَنَّ دَاوُدَ أَقَامَ فِي صِقْلَغَ يَوْمَيْنِ. | ١ 1 |
And it comes to pass after the death of Saul, that David has returned from striking the Amalekite, and David dwells in Ziklag [for] two days,
وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ إِذَا بِرَجُلٍ أَتَى مِنَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ مِنْ عِنْدِ شَاوُلَ وَثِيَابُهُ مُمَزَّقَةٌ وَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ تُرَابٌ. فَلَمَّا جَاءَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ خَرَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ. | ٢ 2 |
and it comes to pass, on the third day, that behold, a man has come in out of the camp from Saul, and his garments [are] torn, and earth [is] on his head; and it comes to pass in his coming to David, that he falls to the earth and pays respect.
فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَتَيْتَ؟» فَقَالَ لَهُ: «مِنْ مَحَلَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَجَوْتُ». | ٣ 3 |
And David says to him, “Where do you come from?” And he says to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ كَانَ ٱلْأَمْرُ؟ أَخْبِرْنِي». فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ قَدْ هَرَبَ مِنَ ٱلْقِتَالِ، وَسَقَطَ أَيْضًا كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَمَاتُوا، وَمَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ ٱبْنُهُ أَيْضًا». | ٤ 4 |
And David says to him, “What has been the matter? Please declare [it] to me.” And he says, “That the people have fled from the battle, and also a multitude of the people have fallen, and they die; and also Saul and his son Jonathan have died.”
فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلْغُلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «كَيْفَ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ ٱبْنُهُ؟» | ٥ 5 |
And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “How have you known that Saul and his son Jonathan [are] dead?”
فَقَالَ ٱلْغُلَامُ ٱلَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «ٱتَّفَقَ أَنِّي كُنْتُ فِي جَبَلِ جِلْبُوعَ وَإِذَا شَاوُلُ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى رُمْحِهِ، وَإِذَا بِٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَٱلْفُرْسَانِ يَشُدُّونَ وَرَاءَهُ. | ٦ 6 |
And the youth who is declaring [it] to him says, “I happened to meet in Mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul is leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and those possessing horses have followed him;
فَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ فَرَآنِي وَدَعَانِي فَقُلْتُ: هَأَنَذَا. | ٧ 7 |
and he turns behind him, and sees me, and calls to me, and I say, Here I [am].
فَقَالَ لِي: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: عَمَالِيقِيٌّ أَنَا. | ٨ 8 |
And he says to me, Who [are] you? And I say to him, I [am] an Amalekite.
فَقَالَ لِي: قِفْ عَلَيَّ وَٱقْتُلْنِي لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱعْتَرَانِيَ ٱلدُّوَارُ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ نَفْسِي بَعْدُ فِيَّ. | ٩ 9 |
And he says to me, Please stand over me and put me to death, for the arrow has seized me, for all my soul [is] still in me.
فَوَقَفْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَتَلْتُهُ لِأَنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ لَا يَعِيشُ بَعْدَ سُقُوطِهِ، وَأَخَذْتُ ٱلْإِكْلِيلَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَٱلسِّوارَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ذِرَاعِهِ وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمَا إِلَى سَيِّدِي هَهُنَا». | ١٠ 10 |
And I stand over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he does not live after his falling, and I take the crown which [is] on his head, and the bracelet which [is] on his arm, and bring them to my lord here.”
فَأَمْسَكَ دَاوُدُ ثِيَابَهُ وَمَزَّقَهَا، وَكَذَا جَمِيعُ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ. | ١١ 11 |
And David takes hold on his garments, and tears them, and also all the men who [are] with him,
وَنَدَبُوا وَبَكَوْا وَصَامُوا إِلَى ٱلْمَسَاءِ عَلَى شَاوُلَ وَعَلَى يُونَاثَانَ ٱبْنِهِ، وَعَلَى شَعْبِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَلَى بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنَّهُمْ سَقَطُوا بِٱلسَّيْفِ. | ١٢ 12 |
and they mourn, and weep, and fast until the evening, for Saul, and for his son Jonathan, and for the people of YHWH, and for the house of Israel, because they have fallen by the sword.
ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلْغُلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا ٱبْنُ رَجُلٍ غَرِيبٍ، عَمَالِيقِيٍّ». | ١٣ 13 |
And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “Where [are] you from?” And he says, “I [am] the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ لَمْ تَخَفْ أَنْ تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ لِتُهْلِكَ مَسِيحَ ٱلرَّبِّ؟». | ١٤ 14 |
And David says to him, “How were you not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the anointed of YHWH?”
ثُمَّ دَعَا دَاوُدُ وَاحِدًا مِنَ ٱلْغِلْمَانِ وَقَالَ: «تَقَدَّمْ. أَوْقِعْ بِهِ». فَضَرَبَهُ فَمَاتَ. | ١٥ 15 |
And David calls to one of the youths and says, “Draw near—fall on him”; and he strikes him, and he dies;
فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «دَمُكَ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ لِأَنَّ فَمَكَ شَهِدَ عَلَيْكَ قَائِلًا: أَنَا قَتَلْتُ مَسِيحَ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ١٦ 16 |
and David says to him, “Your blood [is] on your own head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, I put to death the anointed of YHWH.”
وَرَثَا دَاوُدُ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْمَرْثَاةِ شَاوُلَ وَيُونَاثَانَ ٱبْنَهُ، | ١٧ 17 |
And David laments with this lamentation over Saul, and over his son Jonathan;
وَقَالَ أَنْ يَتَعَلَّمَ بَنُو يَهُوذَا «نَشِيدَ ٱلْقَوْسِ». هُوَذَا ذَلِكَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي سِفْرِ يَاشَرَ: | ١٨ 18 |
and he says to teach the sons of Judah “The Bow”; behold, it is written on the Scroll of the Upright:
«اَلظَّبْيُ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ مَقْتُولٌ عَلَى شَوَامِخِكَ. كَيْفَ سَقَطَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةُ! | ١٩ 19 |
“The beauty of Israel [Is] wounded on your high places; How the mighty have fallen!
لَا تُخْبِرُوا فِي جَتَّ. لَا تُبَشِّرُوا فِي أَسْوَاقِ أَشْقَلُونَ، لِئَلَّا تَفْرَحَ بَنَاتُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، لِئَلَّا تَشْمَتَ بَنَاتُ ٱلْغُلْفِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Do not declare [it] in Gath, Do not proclaim the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon, Lest they rejoice—The daughters of the Philistines, Lest they exult—The daughters of the uncircumcised!
يَاجِبَالَ جِلْبُوعَ لَا يَكُنْ طَلٌّ وَلَا مَطَرٌ عَلَيْكُنَّ، وَلَا حُقُولُ تَقْدِمَاتٍ، لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ طُرِحَ مِجَنُّ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ، مِجَنُّ شَاوُلَ بِلَا مَسْحٍ بِٱلدُّهْنِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Mountains of Gilboa! No dew nor rain be on you, And fields of raised-offerings! For there has become loathsome The shield of the mighty, The shield of Saul—without the anointed with oil.
مِنْ دَمِ ٱلْقَتْلَى، مِنْ شَحْمِ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ لَمْ تَرْجِعْ قَوْسُ يُونَاثَانَ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، وَسَيْفُ شَاوُلَ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ خَائِبًا. | ٢٢ 22 |
From the blood of the wounded, From the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan Has not turned backward; And the sword of Saul does not return empty.
شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبَانِ وَٱلْحُلْوَانِ فِي حَيَاتِهِمَا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا فِي مَوْتِهِمَا. أَخَفُّ مِنَ ٱلنُّسُورِ وَأَشَدُّ مِنَ ٱلْأُسُودِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Saul and Jonathan! They are loved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they have not been parted. They have been lighter than eagles, They have been mightier than lions!
يَا بَنَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱبْكِينَ شَاوُلَ ٱلَّذِي أَلْبَسَكُنَّ قِرْمِزًا بِٱلتَّنَعُّمِ، وَجَعَلَ حُلِيَّ ٱلذَّهَبِ عَلَى مَلَابِسِكُنَّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Daughters of Israel! Weep for Saul, Who is clothing you [in] scarlet with delights. Who is lifting up ornaments of gold on your clothing.
كَيْفَ سَقَطَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةُ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْحَرْبِ! يُونَاثَانُ عَلَى شَوَامِخَكِ مَقْتُولٌ. | ٢٥ 25 |
How the mighty have fallen In the midst of the battle! Jonathan [was] wounded on your high places!
قَدْ تَضَايَقْتُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَخِي يُونَاثَانُ. كُنْتَ حُلْوًا لِي جِدًّا. مَحَبَّتُكَ لِي أَعْجَبُ مِنْ مَحَبَّةِ ٱلنِّسَاءِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
I am in distress for you, my brother Jonathan, You were very pleasant to me; Your love was wonderful to me, Above the love of women!
كَيْفَ سَقَطَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةُ وَبَادَتْ آلَاتُ ٱلْحَرْبِ!». | ٢٧ 27 |
How the mighty have fallen, Indeed, the weapons of war perish!”
