1 Samuel 31
1 Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel. And the men of Israel fled before the face of the Philistines, and they fell down slain on mount Gilboa.
A Filistynowie zwiedli bitwę z Izraelem; i uciekli mężowie Izraelscy przed Filistynami, a polegli zranieni na górze Gielboe.
2 And the Philistines rushed upon Saul, and upon his sons, and they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
I gonili Filistynowie Saula i syny jego, i zabili Filistynowie Jonatana, i Abinadaba, i Melchisuego, syny Saulowe.
3 And the entire weight of the battle was turned against Saul. And the men who were archers pursued him. And he was severely wounded by the archers.
A gdy się wzmagała bitwa przeciwko Saulowi, trafili nań strzelcy, mężowie strzelający z łuku, i zraniony jest bardzo od strzelców.
4 Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword and strike me, otherwise these uncircumcised may come and kill me, mocking me.” And his armor bearer was not willing. For he had been struck with an exceedingly great fear. And so, Saul took his own sword, and he fell upon it.
I rzekł Saul do wyrostka swego, który nosił broń jego: Dobądź miecza twego, a przebij mię nim, by snać nie przyszli ci nieobrzezańcy, i nie przebili mię, a nie czynili igrzyska ze mnie. Ale nie chciał wyrostek jego, bo się bardzo bał. Przetoż Saul porwał miecz i upadł nań.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, namely, that Saul had died, he too fell upon his sword, and he died with him.
A widząc wyrostek jego, iż umarł Saul, padł i on na miecz swój, i umarł z nim.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor bearer, and all his men, on the same day together.
Umarł tedy Saul, i trzej synowie jego, i wyrostek jego, co za nim broń nosił, i wszyscy mężowie jego dnia onego wespół.
7 Then, seeing that the men of the Israelites had fled, and that Saul had died with his sons, the men of Israel who were across the valley or beyond the Jordan abandoned their cities, and they fled. And the Philistines went and lived there.
Co gdy ujrzeli mężowie Izraelscy, którzy za doliną, i za Jordanem mieszkali, iż uciekali mężowie Izraelscy, a iż umarł Saul, i synowie jego, odbieżawszy miast, pouciekali też, a przyszedłszy Filistynowie mieszkali w nich.
8 Then, when the next day arrived, the Philistines came, so that they might despoil the slain. And they found Saul and his three sons lying on mount Gilboa.
A nazajutrz przyszli Filistynowie, aby odzierali pobite; i znaleźli Saula, i trzech synów jego leżących na górze Gielboe.
9 And they cut off the head of Saul. And they despoiled him of the armor, and they sent it into the land of the Philistines all around, so that it might be announced in the temples of the idols and among their people.
A uciąwszy głowę jego, zdarli z niego zbroję jego, i posłali po ziemi Filistyńskiej wszędzie, aby to opowiadano w kościele bałwanów ich, i między ludem.
10 And they placed his armor in the temple of Ashtaroth. But his body they suspended on the wall of Bethshan.
I położyli zbroję jego w kościele Astarot; ale ciało jego przybili na murze Betsan.
11 And when the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead had heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
Tedy usłyszawszy o tem obywatele Jabes Galaad, co uczynili Filistynowie Saulowi;
12 all the most valiant men rose up, and they walked all night, and they took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Bethshan. And they went to Jabesh Gilead, and they burned them there.
Wstali wszyscy mężowie mocni, i szli przez onę całą noc, i wzięli ciało Saulowe, i ciała synów jego z muru Betsan, a przyszedłszy do Jabes spalili je tam.
13 And they took their bones, and they buried them in the forest of Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.
A wziąwszy kości ich, pogrzebli je pod drzewem w Jabes, i pościli siedm dni.
