< 1 Samuel 31 >
1 And [the] Philistines [were] fighting against Israel and they fled [the] men of Israel from before [the] Philistines and they fell slain on [the] mountain of Gilboa.
非利士人與以色列人爭戰。以色列人在非利士人面前逃跑,在基利波有被殺仆倒的。
2 And they pursued closely [the] Philistines Saul and sons his and they struck down [the] Philistines Jonathan and Abinadab and Malki-Shua [the] sons of Saul.
非利士人緊追掃羅和他兒子們,就殺了掃羅的兒子約拿單、亞比拿達、麥基舒亞。
3 And it was heavy the battle against Saul and they found him the archers men with the bow and he was in severe pain exceedingly from the archers.
勢派甚大,掃羅被弓箭手追上,射傷甚重,
4 And he said Saul to [the] bearer of armor his draw out sword your - and pierce through me with it lest they should come the uncircumcised [men] these and they will pierce through me and they will deal wantonly with me and not he was willing [the] bearer of armor his for he was afraid exceedingly and he took Saul the sword and he fell on it.
就吩咐拿他兵器的人說:「你拔出刀來,將我刺死,免得那些未受割禮的人來刺我,凌辱我。」但拿兵器的人甚懼怕,不肯刺他;掃羅就自己伏在刀上死了。
5 And he saw [the] bearer of armor his that he had died Saul and he fell also he on sword his and he died with him.
拿兵器的人見掃羅已死,也伏在刀上死了。
6 And he died Saul and [the] three sons his and [the] bearer of armor his also all men his on the day that together.
這樣,掃羅和他三個兒子,與拿他兵器的人,以及跟隨他的人,都一同死亡。
7 And they saw [the] men of Israel who [were] on [the] other side of the valley and who - [were] on [the] other side of the Jordan that they had fled [the] men of Israel and that they had died Saul and sons his and they abandoned the cities and they fled and they came [the] Philistines and they dwelt in them.
住平原那邊並約旦河西的以色列人,見以色列軍兵逃跑,掃羅和他兒子都死了,也就棄城逃跑。非利士人便來住在其中。
8 And it was from [the] next day and they came [the] Philistines to strip the [ones] slain and they found Saul and [the] three sons his fallen on [the] mountain of Gilboa.
次日,非利士人來剝那被殺之人的衣服,看見掃羅和他三個兒子仆倒在基利波山,
9 And they cut off head his and they stripped off armor his and they sent in [the] land of [the] Philistines all around to bear [the] news [the] house of idols their and the people.
就割下他的首級,剝了他的軍裝,打發人到 非利士地的四境,報信與他們廟裏的偶像和眾民;
10 And they put armor his [the] house of Ashtaroth and corpse his they fixed on [the] wall of Beth Shan.
又將掃羅的軍裝放在亞斯她錄廟裏,將他的屍身釘在伯‧珊的城牆上。
11 And they heard concerning him [the] inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead [that] which they had done [the] Philistines to Saul.
基列‧雅比的居民聽見非利士人向掃羅所行的事,
12 And they arose every man of strength and they went all the night and they took [the] corpse of Saul and [the] corpses of sons his from [the] wall of Beth Shan and they went Jabesh towards and they burned them there.
他們中間所有的勇士就起身,走了一夜,將掃羅和他兒子的屍身從伯‧珊城牆上取下來,送到雅比那裏,用火燒了;
13 And they took bones their and they buried [them] under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh and they fasted seven days.
將他們骸骨葬在雅比的垂絲柳樹下,就禁食七日。
