Kings I 31
1 And the Philistines fought with Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and they fall down wounded in the mountain in Gelbue.
Então os filisteus lutaram com Israel, e os de Israel fugiram diante dos filisteus, e caíram mortos no monte de Gilboa.
2 And the Philistines press closely on Saul and his sons, and the Philistines strike Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisa son of Saul.
E seguindo os filisteus a Saul e a seus filhos, mataram a Jônatas, e a Abinadabe, e a Malquisua, filhos de Saul.
3 And the battle prevails against Saul, and the shooters with arrows, even the archers find him, and he was wounded under the ribs.
E agravou-se a batalha sobre Saul, e lhe alcançaram os flecheiros; e teve grande temor dos flecheiros.
4 And Saul said to his armour-bearer, Draw your sword and pierce me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and pierce me through, and mock me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he feared greatly: so Saul took his sword and fell upon it.
Então disse Saul a seu escudeiro: Tira tua espada, e passa-me com ela, porque não venham estes incircuncisos, e me passem, e me escarneçam. Mas seu escudeiro não queria, porque tinha grande temor. Então Saul tomou a espada, e lançou-se sobre ela.
5 And his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he fell also himself upon his sword, and died with him.
E vendo seu escudeiro a Saul morto, ele também se lançou sobre sua espada, e morreu com ele.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, in that day together.
Assim morreu Saul naquele dia, juntamente com seus três filhos, e seu escudeiro, e todos os seus homens.
7 And the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead; and they leave their cities and flee: and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
E os de Israel que eram da outra parte do vale, e da outra parte do Jordão, vendo que Israel havia fugido, e que Saul e seus filhos eram mortos, deixaram as cidades e fugiram; e os filisteus vieram e habitaram nelas.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow that the Philistines come to strip the dead, and they find Saul and his three sons fallen on the mountains of Gelbue.
E aconteceu o dia seguinte, que vindo os filisteus a despojar os mortos, acharam a Saul e a seus três filhos estendidos no monte de Gilboa;
9 And they turned him, and stripped off his armour, and sent it into the land of the Philistines, sending round glad tidings to their idols and to the people.
E cortaram-lhe a cabeça, e tiraram-lhe as armas; e enviaram ao redor da terra dos filisteus, para que o noticiassem no templo de seus ídolos, e pelo povo.
10 And they set up his armour at the temple of Astarte, and they fastened his body on the wall of Baethsam.
E puseram suas armas no templo de Astarote, e colocaram seu corpo no muro de Bete-Seã.
11 And the inhabitants of Jabis Galaad hear what the Philistines did to Saul.
Mas ouvindo os de Jabes de Gileade isto que os filisteus fizeram a Saul,
12 And they rose up, [even] every man of might, and marched all night, and took the body of Saul and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall of Baethsam; and they bring them to Jabis, and burn them there.
Todos os homens valentes se levantaram, e andaram toda aquela noite, e tiraram o corpo de Saul e os corpos de seus filhos do muro de Bete-Seã; e vindo a Jabes, queimaram-nos ali.
13 And they take their bones, and bury them in the field that is in Jabis, and fast seven days.
E tomando seus ossos, sepultaram-nos debaixo de uma árvore em Jabes, e jejuaram durante sete dias.
