1 Ljetopisa 10
1 Filistejci su zavojštili na Izraelce. Izraelci su pobjegli pred njima i padali pobijeni po gori Gilboi.
Now the Philistines warred against Israel; and they fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gelbue.
2 Filistejci stisnuše Šaula i njegove sinove i pogubiše Šaulove sinove Jonatana, Abinadaba i Malki-Šuu.
And the Philistines pursued after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines struck Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisue, sons of Saul.
3 Boj je postao žešći oko Šaula. Iznenadiše ga strijelci s lukovima i on pade ranjen od strijelaca.
And the battle prevailed against Saul, and the archers hit him with bows and arrows, and they were wounded of the bows.
4 Tada Šaul reče svome štitonoši: “Izvuci svoj mač i probodi me da ne dođu ti neobrezanci i ne narugaju mi se.” Ali se njegov štitonoša prestravi i ne htjede toga učiniti. Zato Šaul uze mač i baci se na nj.
And Saul said to his armour-bearer, Draw your sword, and pierce me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and mock me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he was greatly afraid: so Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
5 Kad je štitonoša vidio da je Šaul umro, baci se i on na svoj mač i umrije s njim.
And his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he also fell upon his sword.
6 Tako onog dana pogiboše zajedno Šaul, njegova tri sina i sav njegov dom.
So Saul died, and his three sons on that day, and all his family died at the same time.
7 Kad su svi Izraelci koji su bili u dolini vidjeli da su sinovi Izraelovi pobjegli i da je poginuo Šaul sa sinovima, ostavili su svoje gradove i razbježali se. Filistejci dođoše i nastaniše se u njima.
And all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, and they left their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 Kad su sutradan došli Filistejci da oplijene pobijene, našli su Šaula s njegovim sinovima gdje leže mrtvi na gori Gilboi.
And it came to pass on the next [day] that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his sons fallen on mount Gelbue.
9 Svukavši ga, uzeše mu glavu i oružje te poslaše po filistejskoj zemlji unaokolo javljajući veselu vijest svojim idolima i narodu.
And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armour, and sent them into the land of the Philistines round about, to proclaim the glad tidings to their idols, and to the people.
10 Potom su oružje metnuli u hram svoga boga, a lubanju mu izložili u Dagonovu hramu.
And they put their armour in the house of their god, and they put his head in the house of Dagon.
11 Kad su čuli svi Jabeš-Gileađani što su Filistejci učinili od Šaula,
And all the dwellers in Galaad heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul and to Israel.
12 ustali su svi hrabri ljudi i uzeli Šaulovo mrtvo tijelo i tjelesa njegovih sinova i, donijevši ih u Jabeš, pokopali su njihove kosti pod tamarisom u Jabešu; i postiše sedam dana.
And all the mighty men rose up from Galaad, and they took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabis, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabis, and fasted seven days.
13 Tako je poginuo Šaul za svoju nevjeru kojom se iznevjerio Jahvi: nije držao Jahvine zapovijedi i povrh toga je pitao za savjet bajačicu,
So Saul died for his transgressions, wherein he transgressed against God, against the word of the Lord, forasmuch as he kept [it] not, because Saul enquired of a wizard to seek [counsel], and Samuel the prophet answered him:
14 a nije pitao Jahvu; zato ga je ubio i prenio kraljevstvo na Jišajeva sina Davida.
and he sought not the Lord: so he killed him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
