1 Samuel 18
1 It happened, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنَ ٱلْكَلَامِ مَعَ شَاوُلَ أَنَّ نَفْسَ يُونَاثَانَ تَعَلَّقَتْ بِنَفْسِ دَاوُدَ، وَأَحَبَّهُ يُونَاثَانُ كَنَفْسِهِ. | ١ |
2 Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
| فَأَخَذَهُ شَاوُلُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَلَمْ يَدَعْهُ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ. | ٢ |
3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
| وَقَطَعَ يُونَاثَانُ وَدَاوُدُ عَهْدًا لِأَنَّهُ أَحَبَّهُ كَنَفْسِهِ. | ٣ |
4 Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him, and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt.
| وَخَلَعَ يُونَاثَانُ ٱلْجُبَّةَ ٱلَّتِي عَلَيْهِ وَأَعْطَاهَا لِدَاوُدَ مَعَ ثِيَابِهِ وَسَيْفِهِ وَقَوْسِهِ وَمِنْطَقَتِهِ. | ٤ |
5 Then Saul set him over the men of war, and David went out, succeeding wherever Saul sent him. And it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى حَيْثُمَا أَرْسَلَهُ شَاوُلُ. كَانَ يُفْلِحُ. فَجَعَلَهُ شَاوُلُ عَلَى رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ. وَحَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَفِي أَعْيُنِ عَبِيدِ شَاوُلَ أَيْضًا. | ٥ |
6 It happened as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with instruments of music.
| وَكَانَ عِنْدَ مَجِيئِهِمْ حِينَ رَجَعَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ قَتْلِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّ، أَنَّ ٱلنِّسَاءَ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْغِنَاءِ وَٱلرَّقْصِ لِلِقَاءِ شَاوُلَ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِدُفُوفٍ وَبِفَرَحٍ وَبِمُثَلَّثَاتٍ. | ٦ |
7 The women sang one to another as they played, and said, "Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands."
| فَأَجَابَتِ ٱلنِّسَاءُ ٱللَّاعِبَاتُ وَقُلْنَ: «ضَرَبَ شَاوُلُ أُلُوفَهُ وَدَاوُدُ رِبْوَاتِهِ. | ٧ |
8 Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; and he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands. What can he have more but the kingdom?"
| فَٱحْتَمى شَاوُلُ جِدًّا وَسَاءَ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ، وَقَالَ: «أَعْطَيْنَ دَاوُدَ رِبْوَاتٍ وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَأَعْطَيْنَنِي ٱلْأُلُوفَ! وَبَعْدُ فَقَطْ تَبْقَى لَهُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةُ». | ٨ |
9 Saul viewed David with suspicion from that day and forward.
| فَكَانَ شَاوُلُ يُعَايِنُ دَاوُدَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ فَصَاعِدًا. | ٩ |
10 It happened on the next day, that a harmful spirit from God came mightily on Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house. David played with his hand, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand;
| وَكَانَ فِي ٱلْغَدِ أَنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلرَّدِيءَ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱللهِ ٱقْتَحَمَ شَاوُلَ وَجُنَّ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْبَيْتِ. وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَضْرِبُ بِيَدِهِ كَمَا فِي يَوْمٍ فَيَوْمٍ، وَكَانَ ٱلرُّمْحُ بِيَدِ شَاوُلَ. | ١٠ |
11 and Saul threw the spear; for he said, "I will pin David even to the wall." David escaped from his presence twice.
| فَأَشْرَعَ شَاوُلُ ٱلرُّمْحَ وَقَالَ: «أَضْرِبُ دَاوُدَ حَتَّى إِلَى ٱلْحَائِطِ». فَتَحَوَّلَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ. | ١١ |
12 Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and had departed from Saul.
| وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ يَخَافُ دَاوُدَ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ كَانَ مَعَهُ، وَقَدْ فَارَقَ شَاوُلَ. | ١٢ |
13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
| فَأَبْعَدَهُ شَاوُلُ عَنْهُ وَجَعَلَهُ لَهُ رَئِيسَ أَلْفٍ، فَكَانَ يَخْرُجُ وَيَدْخُلُ أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ١٣ |
14 David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ مُفْلِحًا فِي جَمِيعِ طُرُقِهِ وَٱلرَّبُّ مَعَهُ. | ١٤ |
15 When Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he stood in awe of him.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى شَاوُلُ أَنَّهُ مُفْلِحٌ جِدًّا فَزِعَ مِنْهُ. | ١٥ |
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David; for he went out and came in before them.
| وَكَانَ جَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا يُحِبُّونَ دَاوُدَ لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَخْرُجُ وَيَدْخُلُ أَمَامَهُمْ. | ١٦ |
17 Saul said to David, "Look, my elder daughter Merob, I will give her to you as wife. Only be valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles." For Saul said, "Do not let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him."
| وَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لِدَاوُدَ: «هُوَذَا ٱبْنَتِي ٱلْكَبِيرَةُ مَيْرَبُ أُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا ٱمْرَأَةً. إِنَّمَا كُنْ لِي ذَا بَأْسٍ وَحَارِبْ حُرُوبَ ٱلرَّبِّ». فَإِنَّ شَاوُلَ قَالَ: «لَا تَكُنْ يَدِي عَلَيْهِ، بَلْ لِتَكُنْ عَلَيْهِ يَدُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ». | ١٧ |
18 David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِشَاوُلَ: «مَنْ أَنَا، وَمَا هِيَ حَيَاتِي وَعَشِيرَةُ أَبِي فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ حَتَّى أَكُونَ صِهْرَ ٱلْمَلِكِ؟». | ١٨ |
19 But it happened at the time when Merob, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
| وَكَانَ فِي وَقْتِ إِعْطَاءِ مَيْرَبَ ٱبْنَةِ شَاوُلَ لِدَاوُدَ أَنَّهَا أُعْطِيَتْ لِعَدْرِيئِيلَ ٱلْمَحُولِيِّ ٱمْرَأَةً. | ١٩ |
20 Mikal, Saul's daughter, loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
| وَمِيكَالُ ٱبْنَةُ شَاوُلَ أَحَبَّتْ دَاوُدَ، فَأَخْبَرُوا شَاوُلَ، فَحَسُنَ ٱلْأَمْرُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. | ٢٠ |
21 And Saul thought, "I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David, "You shall this day be my son-in-law a second time."
| وَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «أُعْطِيهِ إِيَّاهَا فَتَكُونُ لَهُ شَرَكًا وَتَكُونُ يَدُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ عَلَيْهِ». وَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لِدَاوُدَ ثَانِيَةً: «تُصَاهِرُنِي ٱلْيَوْمَ». | ٢١ |
22 Then Saul commanded his servants, "Talk with David secretly, and say, 'Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. So now therefore be the king's son-in-law.'"
| وَأَمَرَ شَاوُلُ عَبِيدَهُ: «تَكَلَّمُوا مَعَ دَاوُدَ سِرًّا قَائِلِينَ: هُوَذَا قَدْ سُرَّ بِكَ ٱلْمَلِكُ، وَجَمِيعُ عَبِيدِهِ قَدْ أَحَبُّوكَ. فَٱلْآنَ صَاهِرِ ٱلْمَلِكَ». | ٢٢ |
23 Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, "Does it seems to you a little thing to be the king's son-in-law, since I am a poor man, and insignificant?"
| فَتَكَلَّمَ عَبِيدُ شَاوُلَ فِي أُذُنَيْ دَاوُدَ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ. فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «هَلْ هُوَ مُسْتَخَفٌّ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ مُصَاهَرَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ مِسْكِينٌ وَحَقِيرٌ؟» | ٢٣ |
24 The servants of Saul told him, saying, "David spoke like this."
| فَأَخْبَرَ شَاوُلَ عَبِيدُهُ قَائِلِينَ: «بِمِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ تَكَلَّمَ دَاوُدُ». | ٢٤ |
25 Saul said, "You shall tell David, 'The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies.'" Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
| فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِدَاوُدَ: لَيْسَتْ مَسَرَّةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِٱلْمَهْرِ، بَلْ بِمِئَةِ غُلْفَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ لِلِٱنْتِقَامِ مِنْ أَعْدَاءِ ٱلْمَلِكِ». وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ يَتَفَكَّرُ أَنْ يُوقِعَ دَاوُدَ بِيَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ٢٥ |
26 When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. The days were not expired;
| فَأَخْبَرَ عَبِيدُهُ دَاوُدَ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، فَحَسُنَ ٱلْكَلَامُ فِي عَيْنَيْ دَاوُدَ أَنْ يُصَاهِرَ ٱلْمَلِكَ. وَلَمْ تَكْمُلِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ | ٢٦ |
27 and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines one hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Mikal his daughter as wife.
| حَتَّى قَامَ دَاوُدُ وَذَهَبَ هُوَ وَرِجَالُهُ وَقَتَلَ مِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِئَتَيْ رَجُلٍ، وَأَتَى دَاوُدُ بِغُلَفِهِمْ فَأَكْمَلُوهَا لِلْمَلِكِ لِمُصَاهَرَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. فَأَعْطَاهُ شَاوُلُ مِيكَالَ ٱبْنَتَهُ ٱمْرَأَةً. | ٢٧ |
28 When Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that all Israel loved him,
| فَرَأَى شَاوُلُ وَعَلِمَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَعَ دَاوُدَ. وَمِيكَالُ ٱبْنَةُ شَاوُلَ كَانَتْ تُحِبُّهُ. | ٢٨ |
29 then he was even more afraid of David. So Saul was David's enemy continually.
| وَعَادَ شَاوُلُ يَخَافُ دَاوُدَ بَعْدُ، وَصَارَ شَاوُلُ عَدُوًّا لِدَاوُدَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. | ٢٩ |
30 Then the leaders of the Philistines went forth: and it happened, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly esteemed.
| وَخَرَجَ أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. وَمِنْ حِينِ خُرُوجِهِمْ كَانَ دَاوُدُ يُفْلِحُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ عَبِيدِ شَاوُلَ، فَتَوَقَّرَ ٱسْمُهُ جِدًّا. | ٣٠ |
