1 Chronicles 10
1 The Philistines attacked Israel and all the Israelites soldiers ran away from them. Many Israelites were cut down on Mount Gilboa.
Filisterne angreb Israel; og Israeals Mænd flygtede for Filisterne, og de faldne lå rundt om på Gilboas Bjerg.
2 The Philistines chased down Saul and his sons. The killed Saul's sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
Og Filisterne forfulgte Saul og hans Sønner og dræbte Sauls Sønner, Jonatan, Abinadab og Malkisjua.
3 The battle raged intensely around Saul. The enemy archers saw where he was, and they wounded him.
Kampen rasede om Saul, og han blev opdaget af Bueskytterne og grebes af stor Angst for dem.
4 Saul told his armor bearer, “Take out your sword and kill me before these heathen come and torment me.” But his armor bearer refused—he was too afraid to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
Da sagde Saul til sin Våbendrager: "Drag dit Sværd og gennembor mig, for at ikke disse uomskårne skal komme og mishandle mig!" Men Våbendrageren vilde ikke, thi han gøs tilbage derfor. Da tog Saul Sværdet og styrtede sig i det,
5 When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died.
og da Våbendrageren så, at Saul var død, styrtede også han sig i sit Sværd og døde.
6 So Saul and three of his sons died there, along with his royal line.
Således fulgtes Saul, hans tre Sønner og hele hans Slægt i Døden.
7 When all the Israelites in the valley saw that their army had run away, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their towns and they also ran away. The Philistines came and occupied them.
Men da alle Israeliteme i Dalen så, at Israels Mænd var flygtet, og at Saul og hans Sønner var faldet, forlod de deres Byer og flygtede, hvorpå Filisterne kom og besatte dem.
8 The following day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they discovered the bodies of Saul and his sons on Mount Gilboa.
Da Filisterne Dagen efter kom for at plyndre de faldne, fandt de Saul og hans Sønner liggende på Gilboas Bjerg.
9 They stripped him, cut off his head, and took his armor. Then they sent the news throughout the land of Philistia, to their idols and their people.
De plyndrede ham da og tog hans hoved og Våben med sig og sendte Bud rundt iilisternes Land for at bringe deres Afguder og Folket Glædesbudet.
10 They put Saul's armor in the temple of their idols and fixed his head to the temple of Dagon.
Våbnene lagde dei deres Guds Hus, men Hovedskallen hængte de op i Dagons Hus.
11 However, when everyone in Jabesh-gilead heard everything the Philistines had done to Saul,
Men da alle de, som boede i Gilead, hørte alt, hvad Filisterne havde gjort ved Saul,
12 all their fighting men went and recovered the bodies of Saul and his sons. They brought them back and buried them under the large tree in Jabesh. Then they fasted for seven days.
brød alle våbenføre Mænd op, og de tog Sauls og hans Sønners Lig ned, bragte dem med til Jabesj og jordede deres Ben under Terebinten i Jabesj og fastede syv Dage.
13 Saul died because he was unfaithful to the Lord. He did not keep the Lord's commands, and he also went to consult a medium.
Således døde Saul for den Utroskabs Skyld, han havde vist HERREN, fordi han ikke havde givet Agt på HERRENs Ord, også fordi han havde adspurgt en Ånd for at få et Råd
14 He did not consult the Lord, so the Lord put him to death and he handed over the kingship to David, son of Jesse.
og ikke søgt; Råd hos HERREN. Derfor lod han ham dø, og Kongemagten lod han gå over til David, Isajs Søn.
