1 Chronicles 10
1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
Orang Filistin berperang melawan orang Israel. Orang-orang Israel melarikan diri dari hadapan orang Filistin dan banyak yang mati terbunuh di pegunungan Gilboa.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
Orang Filistin terus mengejar Saul dan anak-anaknya dan menewaskan Yonatan, Abinadab dan Malkisua, anak-anak Saul.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
Kemudian makin beratlah pertempuran itu bagi Saul; para pemanah menjumpainya dan melukainya.
4 Then said Saul to his armor bearer, Draw your sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armor bearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell on it.
Lalu berkatalah Saul kepada pembawa senjatanya: "Hunuslah pedangmu dan tikamlah aku, supaya jangan datang orang-orang yang tidak bersunat ini memperlakukan aku sebagai permainan." Tetapi pembawa senjatanya tidak mau, karena ia sangat segan. Kemudian Saul mengambil pedang itu dan menjatuhkan dirinya ke atasnya.
5 And when his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
Ketika pembawa senjatanya melihat, bahwa Saul telah mati, iapun menjatuhkan dirinya ke atas pedangnya, lalu mati.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
Jadi Saul, ketiga anaknya dan segenap keluarganya sama-sama mati.
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, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelled in them.
Ketika dilihat seluruh orang Israel yang di lembah, bahwa tentara telah melarikan diri, dan bahwa Saul serta anak-anaknya sudah mati, maka mereka meninggalkan kota-kota mereka lalu melarikan diri juga; kemudian datanglah orang Filistin dan menetap di sana.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
Ketika keesokan harinya orang Filistin datang merampasi orang-orang yang mati terbunuh itu, didapati mereka Saul dan anak-anaknya tergelimpang di pegunungan Gilboa.
9 And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings to their idols, and to the people.
Mereka merampasinya dan mengambil kepala Saul dan senjata-senjatanya, lalu menyuruh orang berkeliling di negeri orang Filistin untuk menyampaikan kabar itu kepada berhala-berhala mereka dan kepada rakyat.
10 And they put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
Kemudian mereka menaruh senjata-senjata Saul di kuil allah mereka, tetapi batu kepalanya dipakukan mereka di rumah Dagon.
11 And when all Jabeshgilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
Ketika seluruh Yabesh-Gilead mendengar tentang segala yang telah dilakukan orang Filistin terhadap Saul,
12 They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
maka bersiaplah segenap orang gagah perkasa, lalu pergi mengambil mayat Saul dan mayat anak-anaknya. Mereka membawanya ke Yabesh dan menguburkan tulang-tulang mereka di bawah pohon besar, di Yabesh. Sesudah itu berpuasalah mereka tujuh hari lamanya.
13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to inquire of it;
Demikianlah Saul mati karena perbuatannya yang tidak setia terhadap TUHAN, oleh karena ia tidak berpegang pada firman TUHAN, dan juga karena ia telah meminta petunjuk dari arwah,
14 And inquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
dan tidak meminta petunjuk TUHAN. Sebab itu TUHAN membunuh dia dan menyerahkan jabatan raja itu kepada Daud bin Isai.
