歷代志上 10
1 非利士人與以色列人爭戰，以色列人在非利士人面前逃跑，在基利波山有被殺仆倒的。
Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from the Philistines, and they fell down wounded on mount Gilboa.
2 非利士人緊追掃羅和他兒子們，就殺了掃羅的兒子約拿單、亞比拿達、麥基舒亞。
And when the Philistines had drawn near, pursuing Saul and his sons, they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 勢派甚大，掃羅被弓箭手追上，射傷甚重，
And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
4 就吩咐拿他兵器的人說：「你拔出刀來，將我刺死，免得那些未受割禮的人來凌辱我。」但拿兵器的人甚懼怕，不肯刺他；
And Saul said to his armor bearer: “Unsheathe your sword and kill me. Otherwise, these uncircumcised men may arrive and mock me.” But his armor bearer was not willing, having been struck with fear. And so, Saul took hold of his sword, and he fell upon it.
5 掃羅就自己伏在刀上死了。拿兵器的人見掃羅已死，也伏在刀上死了。
And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
6 這樣，掃羅和他三個兒子，並他的全家都一同死亡。
Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
7 住平原的以色列眾人見以色列軍兵逃跑，掃羅和他兒子都死了，也就棄城逃跑，非利士人便來住在其中。
And when the men of Israel who were living in the plains had seen this, they fled. And since Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and were dispersed, here and there. And the Philistines arrived and lived among them.
8 次日，非利士人來剝那被殺之人的衣服，看見掃羅和他兒子仆倒在基利波山，
Then, on the next day, when the Philistines were taking away the spoils of the slain, they found Saul and his sons, lying on mount Gilboa.
9 就剝了他的軍裝，割下他的首級，打發人到 非利士地的四境報信與他們的偶像和眾民，
And when they had despoiled him, and had cut off his head, and had stripped his armor, they sent these things into their land, so that they would be carried around and displayed in the temples of the idols and to the people.
10 又將掃羅的軍裝放在他們神的廟裏，將他的首級釘在大袞廟中。
But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
11 基列‧雅比人聽見非利士人向掃羅所行的一切事，
When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
12 他們中間所有的勇士就起身前去，將掃羅和他兒子的屍身送到雅比，將他們的屍骨葬在雅比的橡樹下，就禁食七日。
each one of the valiant men rose up, and they took the bodies of Saul and of his sons. And they brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.
13 這樣，掃羅死了。因為他干犯耶和華，沒有遵守耶和華的命；又因他求問交鬼的婦人，
Thus did Saul die for his iniquities, because he betrayed the commandment of the Lord which he had instructed, and did not keep it. And moreover, he even consulted a woman diviner;
14 沒有求問耶和華，所以耶和華使他被殺，把國歸於耶西的兒子大衛。
for he did not trust in the Lord. Because of this, he caused his death, and he transferred his kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.
