歷代志上 10
1 [撒烏耳陣亡]那時，培肋舍特攻打以色列，以色列人由培肋舍特人面前逃走，在基耳波亞山陣亡的人很多。
Then the Philistims fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled before the Philistims, and fell downe slaine in mount Gilboa.
2 培肋舍特人追擊撒烏耳和他的兒子，殺了撒烏耳的兒子約納堂、阿彼納達布和瑪耳基叔亞；
And the Philistims pursued after Saul and after his sonnes, and the Philistims smote Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua the sonnes of Saul.
3 戰爭就集中攻打撒烏耳，弓箭手發現了他，他遂為弓箭手所射傷。
And the battel was sore against Saul; and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
4 當時撒烏耳對自己的執戟者說：「拔出你的劍來，將我刺死，免得那些為受割損的人來凌辱我。」但是，執戟者十分害怕，不肯作這事；於是撒烏耳拔出劍來，伏劍自刎。
Then sayde Saul to his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust me thorowe therewith, lest these vncircumcised come and mocke at me: but his armour bearer would not, for he was sore afraid: therefore Saul tooke the sword and fell vpon it.
5 執戟者見撒烏耳已死，也伏劍自刎。
And when his armour bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon the sworde, and dyed.
6 這樣，撒烏耳和他的三個兒子，並他的全家一同陣亡了。
So Saul dyed and his three sonnes, and all his house, they dyed together.
7 所有住在平原的以色列人見軍隊逃散，撒烏耳和他的三個兒子陣亡了，也都棄城逃走；培肋舍特人遂來住在那裏。
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley, sawe how they fledde, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, they forsooke their cities, and fled away, and the Philistims came, and dwelt in them.
8 次日，培肋舍特人來剝去陣亡者的衣服時，發現撒烏耳和他的兒子橫臥在基耳波亞山上。
And on the morrowe when the Philistims came to spoyle them that were slaine, they found Saul and his sonnes lying in mount Gilboa.
9 他們便剝去了他的衣服，取下他的首級和武器，送到培肋舍特地方，到處給他們的神和人民報喜信。
And when they had stript him, they tooke his head and his armour, and sent them into the land of the Philistims round about, to publish it vnto their idoles, and to the people.
10 以後，將撒烏耳的武器放在他們的神廟裏；將他的首級釘在達貢廟內。
And they layd vp his armour in the house of their god, and set vp his head in the house of Dagon.
11 基肋阿得雅貝士的居民，一聽說培肋舍特人對撒烏耳所行的一切，
When all they of Iabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistims had done to Saul,
12 所有的勇士便起身前去，收殮了撒烏耳和他兒子的屍體，帶回雅貝士，將他們的骨骸葬於雅貝士的篤耨香樹下，且禁食七天。
Then they arose (all the valiant men) and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, and brought them to Iabesh, and buryed the bones of them vnder an oke in Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
13 撒烏耳之死，是由於他背叛上主，沒有遵守上主的話，並且還求問過招魂的女巫，
So Saul dyed for his transgression, that he committed against the Lord, euen against the word of the Lord, which he kept not, and in that he sought and asked counsel of a familiar spirit,
14 而沒有求其問上主；因此上主使他死亡，將王位移交給葉瑟的兒子達味。
And asked not of the Lord: therefore he slewe him, and turned the kingdome vnto Dauid the sonne of Ishai.
