1 Chronicles 10
1 And the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on mount Gilboa.
Philisthiim autem pugnabant contra Israel, fugeruntque viri Israel Palæsthinos, et ceciderunt vulnerati in monte Gelboe.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, Saul's sons.
Cumque appropinquassent Philisthæi persequentes Saul, et filios eius, percusserunt Ionathan, et Abinadab, et Melchisua filios Saul.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers came up with him, and he was terrified by the archers.
Et aggravatum est prælium contra Saul, inveneruntque eum sagittarii, et vulneraverunt iaculis.
4 Then said Saul to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it.
Et dixit Saul ad armigerum suum: Evagina gladium tuum, et interfice me: ne forte veniant incircumcisi isti, et illudant mihi. Noluit autem armiger eius hoc facere, timore perterritus: arripuit ergo Saul ensem, et irruit in eum.
5 And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
Quod cum vidisset armiger eius, videlicet mortuum esse Saul, irruit etiam ipse in gladium suum, et mortuus est.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
Interiit ergo Saul, et tres filii eius, et omnis domus illius pariter concidit.
7 And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
Quod cum vidissent viri Israel, qui habitabant in campestribus, fugerunt: et Saul ac filiis eius mortuis, dereliquerunt urbes suas, et huc illucque dispersi sunt: veneruntque Philisthiim, et habitaverunt in eis.
8 And it came to pass the next day, that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his sons fallen on mount Gilboa.
Die igitur altero detrahentes Philisthiim spolia cæsorum, invenerunt Saul, et filios eius iacentes in monte Gelboe.
9 And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armour, and sent [them] into the land of the Philistines round about, to announce the glad tidings to their idols, and to the people.
Cumque spoliassent eum, et amputassent caput, armisque nudassent, miserunt in terram suam, ut circumferretur, et ostenderetur idolorum templis, et populis:
10 And they put his armour in the house of their god, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
arma autem eius consecraverunt in fano dei sui, et caput affixerunt in templo Dagon.
11 And when all they of Jabesh-Gilead heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
Hoc cum audissent viri Iabes Galaad, omnia scilicet quæ Philisthiim fecerant super Saul,
12 all the valiant men arose, and took up the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the terebinth of Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
consurrexerunt singuli virorum fortium, et tulerunt cadavera Saul et filiorum eius: attuleruntque ea in Iabes, et sepelierunt ossa eorum subter quercum, quæ erat in Iabes, et ieiunaverunt septem diebus.
13 And Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah which he kept not, and also for having inquired of the spirit of Python, asking counsel of it;
Mortuus est ergo Saul propter iniquitates suas, eo quod prævaricatus sit mandatum Domini quod præceperat, et non custodierit illud: sed insuper etiam pythonissam consuluerit,
14 and he asked not counsel of Jehovah; therefore he slew him, and transferred the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
nec speraverit in Domino: propter quod interfecit eum, et transtulit regnum eius ad David filium Isai.
