< 1 Samuel 31 >
1 And the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on mount Gilboa.
A Filisteji se pobiše s Izrailjcima, i pobjegoše Izrailjci ispred Filisteja, i padahu mrtvi na gori Gelvuji.
2 And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul's sons.
I stigoše Filisteji Saula i sinove njegove; i pogubiše Filisteji Jonatana i Avinadava i Melhi-Suva, sinove Saulove.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers came up with him; and he was much terrified by the archers.
I boj posta žešæi oko Saula, i naðoše ga strijelci, i on se vrlo uplaši od strijelaca.
4 Then said Saul to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it.
I reèe Saul momku koji mu nošaše oružje: izvadi maè svoj i probodi me, da ne doðu ti neobrezani i probodu me i narugaju mi se. Ali ne htje momak što mu nošaše oružje, jer ga bješe vrlo strah. Tada Saul uze maè, i baci se na nj.
5 And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on his sword, and died with him.
A kad momak koji nošaše oružje vidje Saula mrtva, baci se i on na svoj maè i umrije s njim.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, and all his men, that same day together.
Tako pogibe Saul i tri sina njegova i momak koji mu nošaše oružje i svi ljudi njegovi zajedno onoga dana.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on this side of the valley, and [they] that were on this side of the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
A Izrailjci koji bijahu s ovu stranu potoka i s ovu stranu Jordana kad vidješe gdje Izrailjci pobjegoše i gdje pogibe Saul i njegovi sinovi, ostaviše gradove i pobjegoše, te doðoše Filisteji i ostaše u njima.
8 And it came to pass the next day, that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his three sons fallen on mount Gilboa.
A sjutradan doðoše Filisteji da svlaèe mrtve; i naðoše Saula i tri sina njegova gdje leže na gori Gelvuji.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent [them] into the land of the Philistines round about, to announce the glad tidings in the houses of their idols, and to the people.
I otsjekoše mu glavu, i skidoše oružje s njega, i poslaše u zemlju Filistejsku na sve strane da se objavi u kuæi njihovijeh lažnijeh bogova i po narodu.
10 And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth; and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan.
I ostaviše oružje njegovo u kuæi Astarotinoj, a tijelo njegovo objesiše na zid Vet-sanski.
11 And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead heard of what the Philistines had done to Saul,
A èuše stanovnici u Javisu Galadovu šta uèiniše Filisteji od Saula.
12 all the valiant men arose and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Jabesh, and burned them there.
I podigoše se svi ljudi hrabri, i išavši svu noæ skidoše tijelo Saulovo i tjelesa sinova njegovijeh sa zida Vet-sanskoga, pa se vratiše u Javis, i ondje ih spališe.
13 And they took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
I uzeše kosti njihove i pogreboše ih pod drvetom u Javisu, i postiše sedam dana.
