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.
Og Filisterne strede imod Israel, og Israels Mænd flyede for Filisternes Ansigt, og de faldt ihjelslagne paa Gilboas Bjerg.
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.
Og Filisterne forfulgte Saul og hans Sønner, og Filisterne sloge Jonathan og Abinadab og Malkisua, Sauls Sønner.
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.
Og Kampen blev svar imod Saul, og Skytterne, som førte Bue, naaede ham, og han blev saare angest for Skytterne.
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.
Da sagde Saul til sin Vaabendrager: Drag dit Sværd ud og stik mig igennem dermed, at ikke disse uomskaarne skulle komme og gennemstikke mig og handle ilde med mig; men hans Vaabendrager vilde ikke, thi han frygtede saare; da tog Saul Sværdet og styrtede sig deri.
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.
Der hans Vaabendrager saa, at Saul var død, da styrtede ogsaa han sig i sit Sværd og døde med ham.
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.
Saa døde Saul og hans tre Sønner og hans Vaabendrager, ogsaa alle hans Mænd til Hobe paa den samme Dag.
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.
Og der Israels Mænd, som vare paa hin Side Dalen, og som vare paa hin Side Jordanen, saa, at Israels Mænd vare flygtede, og at Saul og hans Sønner vare døde, da forlode de Stæderne og flyede; og Filisterne kom og boede i dem.
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.
Og det skete den anden Dag, da Filisterne kom for at plyndre de ihjelslagne, at de fandt Saul og hans tre Sønner faldne paa Gilboas Bjerg.
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.
Da afhuggede de hans Hoved og afførte ham hans Vaaben, og de sendte hen i Filisternes Land trindt omkring for at bringe Budskab derom i deres Afguders Hus og iblandt Folket.
10 And they put armor his [the] house of Ashtaroth and corpse his they fixed on [the] wall of Beth Shan.
Og de lagde hans Vaaben i Astarte-Billedernes Hus og hængte hans Krop ud paa Muren i Bethsan.
11 And they heard concerning him [the] inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead [that] which they had done [the] Philistines to Saul.
Der Indbyggerne i Jabes udi Gilead hørte om ham, hvad Filisterne havde gjort mod Saul,
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.
da gjorde de sig rede, hver stridbar Mand, og de gik den ganske Nat, og de toge Sauls Legeme og hans Sønners Legemer ned af Muren i Bethsan, og de kom til Jabes og brændte dem der.
13 And they took bones their and they buried [them] under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh and they fasted seven days.
Og de toge deres Ben og begrove dem under Tamariske-Træet i Jabes, og de fastede syv Dage.
