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。
And the Philistines have fought with Israel, and the men of Israel flee from the face of the Philistines, and fall wounded 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 Philistines pursue after Saul, and after his sons, and the Philistines smite Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-Shua, sons 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 battle [is] heavy on Saul, and those shooting with the bow find him, and he is wounded by those shooting,
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。
and Saul saith unto the bearer of his weapons, 'Draw thy sword, and pierce me with it, lest these uncircumcised come — and have abused me.' And the bearer of his weapons hath not been willing, for he feareth exceedingly, and Saul taketh the sword, and falleth upon it;
5 執戟者見撒烏耳已死，也伏劍自刎。
and the bearer of his weapons seeth that Saul [is] dead, and falleth, he also, on the sword, and dieth;
6 這樣，撒烏耳和他的三個兒子，並他的全家一同陣亡了。
and Saul dieth, and his three sons, and all his house — together they died.
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 all the men of Israel who [are] in the valley see that they have fled, and that Saul and his sons have died, and they forsake their cities and flee, and the Philistines come and dwell 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 it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that the Philistines come to strip the wounded, and find Saul and his sons fallen 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 strip him, and bear away his head, and his weapons, and send into the land of the Philistines round about to proclaim tidings [to] their idols and 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 put his weapons in the house of their gods, and his skull they have fixed 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，
And all Jabesh-Gilead hear of all that the Philistines have 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。
and all the men of valour rise and bear away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and bring them in to Jabesh, and bury their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fast seven days.
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，
And Saul dieth because of his trespass that he trespassed against Jehovah, against the word of Jehovah that he kept not, and also for asking at a familiar spirit — to inquire, —
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 he inquired not at Jehovah, and He putteth him to death, and turneth round the kingdom to David son of Jesse.
