1 Chronicles 10
1 Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from the Philistines, and they fell down wounded on mount Gilboa.
Die Philister stritten wider Israel. Und die von Israel flohen vor den Philistern, und fielen die Erschlagenen auf dem Berge Gilboa.
2 And when the Philistines had drawn near, pursuing Saul and his sons, they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
Aber die Philister hingen sich an Saul und seine Söhne hinter ihnen her und schlugen Jonathan, Abinadab und Malchisua, die Söhne Sauls.
3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
Und der Streit ward hart wider Saul; und die Bogenschützen kamen an ihn, daß er von den Schützen verwundet ward.
4 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.
Da sprach Saul zu seinem Waffenträger: Zeuch dein Schwert aus und erstich mich damit, daß diese Unbeschnittenen nicht kommen und schändlich mit mir umgehen. Aber sein Waffenträger wollte nicht; denn er fürchtete sich sehr. Da nahm Saul sein Schwert und fiel drein.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
Da aber sein Waffenträger sah, daß Saul tot war, fiel er auch ins Schwert und starb.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
Also starb Saul und seine drei Söhne und sein ganzes Haus zugleich.
7 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.
Da aber die Männer Israels, die im Grunde waren, sahen, daß sie geflohen waren, und daß Saul und seine Söhne tot waren, verließen sie ihre Städte und flohen; und die Philister kamen und wohneten drinnen.
8 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.
Des andern Morgens kamen die Philister, die Erschlagenen auszuziehen, und fanden Saul und seine Söhne liegen auf dem Berge Gilboa;
9 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.
und zogen ihn aus und huben auf sein Haupt und seine Waffen und sandten es ins Land der Philister umher und ließen's verkündigen vor ihren Götzen und dem Volk;
10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
und legten seine Waffen ins Haus ihres Gottes, und seinen Schädel hefteten sie an das Haus Dagons.
11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
Da aber alle die zu Jabes in Gilead höreten alles, was die Philister Saul getan hatten,
12 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.
machten sie sich auf, alle streitbaren Männer, und nahmen den Leichnam Sauls und seiner Söhne und brachten sie gen Jabes und begruben ihre Gebeine unter der Eiche zu Jabes; und fasteten sieben Tage.
13 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;
Also starb Saul in seiner Missetat, die er wider den HERRN getan hatte an dem Wort des HERRN, das er nicht hielt, auch daß er die Wahrsagerin fragte
14 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.
und fragte den HERRN nicht; darum tötete er ihn und wandte das Königreich zu David, dem Sohn Isais.
