< 1 Samuel 19 >

1 Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Saul's son Jonathan liked David very much.
وَحَضَّ شَاوُلُ ابْنَهُ يُونَاثَانَ وَسَائِرَ حَاشِيَتِهِ عَلَى قَتْلِ دَاوُدَ،١
2 So Jonathan told David, saying, "Saul seeks to kill you. Please take care of yourself in the morning, and keep hidden in a secret place.
وَلَكِنَّ يُونَاثَانَ بْنَ شَاوُلَ، الَّذِي كَانَ مُعْجَباً جِدّاً بِدَاوُدَ، أَسَرَّ إِلَيْهِ قَائِلاً: «أَبِي يَلْتَمِسُ قَتْلَكَ، فَاحْتَرِسْ لِنَفْسِكَ فِي الْغَدِ وَاخْتَبِئْ،٢
3 I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will talk with my father about you; and if I see anything, I will tell you."
وَأَنَا أَخْرُجُ مَعَ أَبِي إِلَى الْحَقْلِ الَّذِي تَخْتَبِئُ فِيهِ، وَأُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْكَ ثُمَّ أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَا يَكُونُ».٣
4 Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, "Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you;
وَرَاحَ يُونَاثَانُ يُثْنِي عَلَى دَاوُدَ أَمَامَ أَبِيهِ وَتَسَاءَلَ: «لِمَاذَا يُسِيءُ الْمَلِكُ إِلَى عَبْدِهِ دَاوُدَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُخْطِئْ إِلَيْكَ، وَمَآثِرُهُ عَظِيمَةٌ جِدّاً؟٤
5 for he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?"
لَقَدْ عَرَّضَ حَيَاتَهُ لِلْخَطَرِ عِنْدَمَا قَتَلَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيَّ، فَأَجْرَى الرَّبُّ خَلاصاً عَظِيماً لِجَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَقَدْ شَهِدْتَ ذَلِكَ وَابْتَهَجْتَ بِهِ. فَلِمَاذَا تَقْتُلُ دَاوُدَ مِنْ غَيْرِ دَاعٍ وَتُسِيءُ إِلَى دَمٍ بَرِيءٍ؟»٥
6 Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, "As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death."
فَاقْتَنَعَ شَاوُلُ بِكَلامِ يُونَاثَانَ، وَقَالَ: «أُقْسِمُ بِاللهِ الْحَيِّ، لَنْ يُقْتَلَ دَاوُدُ».٦
7 Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as before.
فَاسْتَدْعَى يُونَاثَانُ دَاوُدَ وَأَطْلَعَهُ عَلَى مَا دَارَ مِنْ حَدِيثٍ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى شَاوُلَ، فَمَثُلَ فِي حَضْرَتِهِ كَمَا كَانَ يَفْعَلُ مِنْ قَبْلُ.٧
8 There was war again. David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
وَعَادَتِ الْحَرْبُ تَنْشَبُ مِنْ جَدِيدٍ، فَخَرَجَ دَاوُدُ لِمُحَارَبَةِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَهَزَمَهُمْ هَزِيمَةً مُنْكَرَةً، فَلاذُوا بِالْفِرَارِ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ.٨
9 A harmful spirit from the LORD was on Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
وَذَاتَ يَوْمٍ كَانَ دَاوُدُ يَعْزِفُ لِشَاوُلَ، فَهَاجَمَ الرُّوحُ الرَّدِيءُ شَاوُلَ مِنْ لَدَى الرَّبِّ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي بَيْتِهِ، وَرُمْحُهُ بِيَدِهِ.٩
10 Saul sought to pin David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he stuck the spear into the wall. David fled, and escaped that night.
فَصَوَّبَ الرُّمْحَ نَحْوَ دَاوُدَ وَرَمَاهُ بِهِ لِيَطْعَنَهُ وَيُسَمِّرَهُ إِلَى الْحَائِطِ، فَتَفَادَى دَاوُدُ الضَّرْبَةَ، وَهَرَبَ مِنْ أَمَامِ شَاوُلَ نَاجِياً بِحَيَاتِهِ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ، أَمَّا الرُّمْحُ فَغَاصَ فِي الْحَائِطِ.١٠
11 Saul sent messengers to David's house, to watch him, and to kill him in the morning. Mikal, David's wife, told him, saying, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed."
فَأَرْسَلَ شَاوُلُ مُرَاقِبِينَ إِلَى بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ يَتَرَصَّدُونَهُ لِيَقْتُلُوهُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ. فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ امْرَأَتُهُ مِيكَالُ قَائِلَةً: «إِذَا لَمْ تَنْجُ بِنَفْسِكَ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ فَإِنَّكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ تُقْتَلُ غَداً».١١
12 So Mikal let David down through the window. He went, fled, and escaped.
وَدَلَّتْهُ مِيكَالُ مِنَ النَّافِذَةِ، فَانْطَلَقَ هَارِباً وَنَجَا.١٢
13 Mikal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats' hair at its head, and covered it with the clothes.
ثُمَّ أَخَذَتْ مِيكَالُ تِمْثَالاً وَوَضَعَتْهُ فِي فِرَاشِهِ، وَوَضَعَتْ تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ لُبْدَةً مِنْ شَعْرِ الْمِعْزَى وَغَطَّتْهُ بِثَوْبٍ.١٣
14 When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, "He is sick."
وَعِنْدَمَا أَرْسَلَ شَاوُلُ جُنُودَهُ لِلْقَبْضِ عَلَى دَاوُدَ قَالَتْ لَهُمْ مِيكَالُ: «إِنَّهُ مَرِيضٌ».١٤
15 Then he sent the messengers to see David, saying, "Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him."
فَبَعَثَ شَاوُلُ الْجُنُودَ ثَانِيَةً لِيَرَوْا دَاوُدَ قَائِلاً: «ائْتُونِي بِهِ وَهُوَ فِي السَّرِيرِ لأَقْتُلَهُ».١٥
16 When the messengers came in, look, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats' hair at its head.
فَأَقْبَلَ الْجُنُودُ، وَإذَا فِي الْفِرَاشِ تِمْثَالٌ وَلُبْدَةٌ مِنْ شَعْرِ الْمِعْزَى تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ.١٦
17 Saul said to Mikal, "Why have you deceived me thus, and let my enemy go, so that he is escaped?" Mikal answered Saul, "He said, 'Let me go. Why should I kill you?'"
فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لاِبْنَتِهِ مِيكَالَ: «لِمَاذَا خَدَعْتِنِي فَأَطْلَقْتِ عَدُوِّي حَتَّى نَجَا؟» فَأَجَابَتْ: «لَقَدْ تَوَعَّدَنِي قَائِلاً: أَطْلِقِينِي لِئَلّا أَقْتُلَكِ».١٧
18 Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and lived in the dwellings.
وَعِنْدَمَا هَرَبَ دَاوُدُ وَنَجَا بِحَيَاتِهِ جَاءَ إِلَى صَمُوئِيلَ فِي الرَّامَةِ وَأَطْلَعَهُ عَمَّا فَعَلَهُ بِهِ شَاوُلُ، وَصَحَبَهُ صَمُوئِيلُ وَمَضَيَا وَأَقَامَا مَعاً فِي نَايُوتَ.١٨
19 And it was told to Saul, saying, "Look, David is in the dwellings at Ramah."
فَقِيلَ لِشَاوُلَ: «هُوَذَا دَاوُدُ فِي نَايُوتَ فِي الرَّامَةِ».١٩
20 And Saul sent messengers to capture David. But when they saw a company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesied.
فَبَعَثَ بِجُنُودٍ لِلْقَبْضِ عَلَيْهِ. وَلَكِنْ عِنْدَمَا شَاهَدُوا جَمَاعَةَ الرَّبِّ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ بِرِئَاسَةِ صَمُوئِيلَ، حَلَّ رُوحُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى الْجُنُودِ فَتَنَبَّأُوا هُمْ أَيْضاً.٢٠
21 When it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
فَأَخْبَرُوا شَاوُلَ بِالأَمْرِ، فَبَعَثَ بِجُنُودٍ آخَرِينَ فَتَنَبَّأُوا هُمْ أَيْضاً. ثُمَّ عَادَ شَاوُلُ فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْقَةً ثَالِثَةً فَتَنَبَّأُوا هُمْ أَيْضاً.٢١
22 And Saul became very angry, and he himself also went to Ramah, and came to the cistern of the threshing floor that is on the bare hill. And he asked, "Where are Samuel and David?" And one said, "Look, they are in the dwellings at Ramah."
وَأَخِيراً ذَهَبَ بِنَفْسِهِ إِلَى الرَّامَةِ، حَتَّى وَصَلَ إِلَى الْبِئْرِ الْعَظِيمَةِ الَّتِي عِنْدَ سِيخُو وَسَأَلَ: «أَيْنَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَدَاوُدُ؟» فَقِيلَ لَهُ: «هُمَا فِي نَايُوتَ فِي الرَّامَةِ».٢٢
23 So he went to the dwellings at Ramah. Then the Spirit of God came on him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to the dwellings in Ramah.
فَمَضَى إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَلَكِنْ فِي أَثْنَاءِ الطَّرِيقِ حَلَّ عَلَيْهِ رُوحُ الرَّبِّ، فَشَرَعَ يَتَنَبَّأُ حَتَّى بَلَغَ نَايُوتَ فِي الرَّامَةِ.٢٣
24 And he stripped off his clothes and prophesied before them, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Thus it is said, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"
فَخَلَعَ هُوَ أَيْضاً ثِيَابَهُ وَرَاحَ يَتَنَبَّأُ أَمَامَ صَمُوئِيلَ، ثُمَّ انْطَرَحَ عَارِياً طُولَ ذَلِكَ النَّهَارِ وَاللَّيْلِ، لِذَلِكَ قِيلَ: «أَشَاوُلُ أَيْضاً بَيْنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ؟».٢٤
