1 Samuel 31
1 Now, as, the Philistines, were fighting against Israel, the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain, in Mount Gilboa.
ペリシテ人イスラエルと戰ふイスラエルの人々ペリシテ人のまへより逃げ負傷者ギルボア山に斃れたり
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons, —and the Philistines smote Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchishua, sons of Saul.
ペリシテ人サウルと其子等に攻よりペリシテ人サウルの子ヨナタン、アビナダブおよびマルキシユアを殺したり
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers discovered him, —and he was terrified at the archers.
戰はげしくサウルにせまりて射手の者サウルを射とめければ彼痛く射手の者のために苦しめり
4 Then said Saul to his armour-bearer—Draw thy sword and pierce me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come, and pierce me through, and abuse me. But his armour-bearer was not willing, for he was sore afraid. So Saul took his sword and fell thereon.
サウル武器を執る者にいひけるは爾の劍を抜き其をもて我を刺とほせ恐らくは是等の割禮なき者きたりて我を刺し我をはづかしめんと然ども武器をとるもの痛くおそれて肯ぜざればサウル劍をとりて其上に伏したり
5 And, when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also, fell upon his sword, and died with him.
武器を執るものサウルの死たるを見ておのれも劍の上にふしてかれとともに死り
6 Thus died Saul, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, yea all his men, on that day, together.
かくサウルと其三人の子およびサウルの武器をとるもの並に其從者みな此日倶に死り
7 And, when the men of Israel who were across the vale, and who were across the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled, and the Philistines entered, and took up their abode therein.
イスラエルの人々の谷の對向にをるもの及びヨルダンの對面にをるものイスラエルの人々の逃るを見サウルと其子等の死るをみて諸邑を棄て逃ければペリシテ人きたりて其中にをる
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul, and his three sons, lying prostrate in Mount Gilboa.
明日ペリシテ人戰沒せる者を剥んとてきたりサウルと其三人の子のギルボア山にたふれをるを見たり
9 So they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, —and sent throughout the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and unto the people.
彼等すなはちサウルの首を斬り其鎧甲をはぎとりペリシテ人の地の四方につかはして此好報を其偶像の家および民の中につげしむ
10 And they put his armour in a house of Ashtoreths, —and, his dead body, fastened they on the wall of Beth-shan.
またかれら其鎧甲をアシタロテの家におき其體をベテシヤンの城垣に釘けたり
11 And, when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him, what the Philistines had done unto Saul,
ヤベシギレアデの人々ペリシテ人のサウルになしたる事を聞きしかば
12 then arose all the men of valour, and journeyed all the 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;
勇士みなおこり終夜ゆきてサウルの體と其子等の體をベテシヤンの城垣よりとりおろしヤベシにいたりて之を其處に焚き
13 and took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk-tree in Jabesh, —and fasted seven days.
其骨をとりてヤベシの柳樹の下にはうむり七日のあひだ斷食せり
