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.
Los filisteos combatieron contra Israel. Los hombres de Israel huyeron de los filisteos y cayeron muertos en la montaña 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.
Los filisteos siguieron de cerca a Saúl y a sus hijos. Mataron a Jonatán, a Abinadab y a Malquisúa, hijos de Saúl.
3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
Arreció la batalla contra Saúl. Los flecheros lo alcanzaron y fue herido por ellos.
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.
Entonces Saúl dijo a su escudero: Saca tu espada y traspásame con ella, no sea que estos incircuncisos vengan y me escarnezcan. Pero su escudero no quiso, porque tenía gran temor. Entonces Saúl tomó la espada y se echó sobre ella.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
Al ver que Saúl moría, su escudero también se echó sobre la suya y murió.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
Así murió Saúl con sus tres hijos. Todos los de su casa murieron juntamente con él.
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.
Cuando todos los hombres de Israel que estaban en el valle vieron que Saúl y sus hijos murieron, abandonaron sus ciudades y huyeron. Entonces los filisteos vinieron y vivieron en ellas.
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.
El día siguiente aconteció que los filisteos fueron a despojar a los muertos y hallaron a Saúl y a sus hijos tendidos en la montaña 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.
Lo despojaron y tomaron su cabeza y sus armas. Enviaron mensajeros por toda la tierra de los filisteos para dar las noticias a sus ídolos y al pueblo.
10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
Colgaron sus armas en el templo de sus ʼelohim y clavaron su cabeza en el templo de Dagón.
11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
Cuando todos los de Jabes de Galaad oyeron todo lo que los filisteos hicieron a Saúl,
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.
se levantaron todos los hombres valientes, tomaron los cadáveres de Saúl y sus hijos y los llevaron a Jabes. Sepultaron sus restos debajo del roble de Jabes y ayunaron siete días.
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;
Así murió Saúl a causa de su infidelidad que cometió contra Yavé, contra la Palabra de Yavé, la cual no guardó. Aun consultó a una evocadora de espíritus de muertos,
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.
y no consultó a Yavé. Por esa causa lo mató y traspasó el reino a David, hijo de Isaí.
