2 Samuel 1

1 And it was after [the] death of Saul and David he returned from defeating Amalek and he remained David in Ziklag days two.

١ وَبَعْدَ مَوْتِ شَاوُلَ وَعَوْدَةِ دَاوُدَ منْ مُحَارَبَةِ الْعَمَالِقَةِ مَكَثَ دَاوُدُ فِي صِقْلَغَ يَوْمَيْنِ.

2 And it was - on the day third and there! a man [was] coming from the camp from with Saul and garments his [were] torn and earth [was] on head his and it was when came he to David and he fell [the] ground towards and he bowed down.

٢ وَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ مِنْ مُعَسْكَرِ شَاوُلَ بِثِيَابٍ مُمَزَّقَةٍ وَرَأْسٍ مُعَفَّرٍ وَخَرَّ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْ دَاوُدَ سَاجِداً.

3 And he said to him David where? from this are you coming and he said to him from [the] camp of Israel I have escaped.

٣ فَسَأَلَهُ دَاوُدُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَقْبَلْتَ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «مِنْ مُعَسْكَرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَاجِياً بِنَفْسِي».

4 And he said to him David what? was it the word tell please to me and he said that it has fled the people from the battle and also [surely] a multitude has fallen of the people and they have died and also Saul and Jonathan son his they have died.

٤ فَسَأَلَهُ دَاوُدُ: «مَاذَا جَرَى؟ أَخْبِرْنِي» فَقَالَ: «لَقَدْ هَرَبَ الْجَيْشُ مِنْ سَاحَةِ الْقِتَالِ، وَقُتِلَ جَمعٌ غَفِيرٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَمَاتَ شَاوُلُ وَابْنُهُ يُونَاثَانُ أَيْضاً»

5 And he said David to the young man who had told to him how? do you know that he has died Saul and Jonathan son his.

٥ فَسَأَلَهُ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ عَرَفْتَ بِمَوْتِ شَاوُلَ وَابْنِهِ يُونَاثَانَ؟»

6 And he said the young man - who had told to him [surely] by chance I found myself on [the] mountain of Gilboa and there! Saul [was] leaning on spear his and there! the chariotry and [the] owners of the horses they overtook him.

٦ فَأَجَابَ: «صَادَفَ أَنَّنِي كُنْتُ فِي جَبَلِ جِلْبُوعَ عِنْدَمَا رَأَيْتُ شَاوُلَ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى رُمْحِهِ وَعَرَبَاتُ الأَعْدَاءِ وَفُرْسَانُهُمْ يَتَعَقَّبُونَهُ.

7 And he turned behind him and he saw me and he called to me and I said here [am] I.

٧ وَمَالَبِثَ أَنِ الْتَفَتَ وَرَاءَهُ. وَحِينَ شَاهَدَنِي استَدْعَانِي إِلَيْهِ.

8 And he said to me who? [are] you (and I said *Q(K)*) to him [am] an Amalekite I.

٨ وَسَأَلَنِي: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَأَجَبْتُ: عَمَالِيقِيٌّ

9 And he said to me stand please over me and kill me for it has seized me dizziness for all still life my [is] in me.

٩ فَقَالَ لِي: قِفْ عَلَيَّ وَاقْتُلْنِي لأَنَّنِي أُقَاسِي مِنْ فَرْطِ الأَلَمِ، وَالْحَيَاةُ مَازَالَتْ تَسْرِي فِي جَسَدِي.

10 And I stood over him and I killed him for I knew that not he will live after had fallen he and I took the crown - which [was] on head his and an armlet which [was] on arm his and I brought them to lord my here.

١٠ فَوَقَفْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَتَلْتُهُ، لأَنَّنِي أَدْرَكْتُ أَنَّهُ مَيْتٌ لَا مَحَالَةَ بَعْدَ سُقُوطِهِ، فَأَخَذْتُ الإِكْلِيلَ الَّذِي فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ وَالسُّوَارَ الَّذِي عَلَى ذِرَاعِهِ وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمَا إِلَى سَيِّدِي».

11 And he took hold David (on garments his *Q(K)*) and he tore them and also all the men who [were] with him.

١١ فَمَزَّقَ دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُ ثِيَابَهُمْ.

12 And they mourned and they wept and they fasted until the evening on Saul and on Jonathan son his and on [the] people of Yahweh and on [the] house of Israel for they had fallen by the sword.

١٢ وَنَدَبُوا وَنَاحُوا وَصَامُوا إِلَى الْمَسَاءِ عَلَى شَاوُلَ وَعَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي الْمَعْرَكَةِ.

13 And he said David to the young man who had told to him where? from this [are] you and he said [am the] son of a man a sojourner an Amalekite I.

١٣ ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِي أَبْلَغَهُ النَّبَأَ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا ابْنُ رَجُلٍ غَرِيبٍ، عَمَالِيقِيٌّ»

14 And he said to him David how? not were you afraid to stretch out hand your to destroy [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.

١٤ فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «كَيْفَ جَرُؤْتَ أَنْ تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ لِتَقْتُلَ الْمَلِكَ مُخْتَارَ الرَّبِّ؟»

15 And he called David to one from the young men and he said draw near fall on him and he struck down him and he died.

١٥ وَأَمَرَ دَاوُدُ أَحَدَ رِجَالِهِ قَائِلاً: «تَقَدَّمْ، وَاقْتُلْهُ». فَأَغْمَدَ فِيهِ سَيْفَهُ فَمَاتَ.

16 And he said to him David (blood your *Q(K)*) [be] on head your for own mouth your it has testified against you saying I I killed [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh.

١٦ وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «دَمُكَ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ، لأَنَّ فَمَكَ شَهِدَ عَلَيْكَ بَعْدَ اعْتِرَافِكَ أَنَّكَ قَتَلْتَ مُخْتَارَ الرَّبِّ».

17 And he lamented David the lamentation this on Saul and on Jonathan son his.

١٧ وَرَثَا دَاوُدُ شَاوُلَ وَابْنَهُ يُونَاثَانَ بِهَذِهِ الْمَرْثَاةِ،

18 And he said to teach [the] descendants of Judah Bow here! [it is] written on [the] scroll of the Jashar.

١٨ وَأَمَرَ أَنْ يَتَعَلَّمَهَا بَنُو يَهُوذَا، وَهِيَ بِعُنْوَانِ: «نَشِيدُ الْقَوْسِ» الْمُدَوَّنَةُ فِي سِفْرِ يَاشَرَ.

19 The beauty O Israel on high places your [is] slain how! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones].

١٩ «مَجْدُكَ، مَجْدُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ صَرِيعٌ فَوْقَ رَوَابِيكَ. كَيْفَ تَهَاوَى الأَبْطَالُ؟

20 May not you tell in Gath may not you bear news in [the] streets of Ashkelon lest they should rejoice [the] daughters of [the] Philistines lest they should exult [the] daughters of the uncircumcised.

٢٠ لَا تُخْبِرُوا فِي جَتَّ، وَلا تُبَشِّرُوا فِي شَوَارِعِ أَشْقَلُونَ، لِئَلّا تَفْرَحَ بَنَاتُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، لِئَلّا تَشْمَتَ بَنَاتُ الْغُلْفِ.

21 O mountains in Gilboa may not dew and may not rain [be] on you and fields of contributions for there it was defiled [the] shield of [the] mighty [ones] [the] shield of Saul not [was] anointed with oil.

٢١ يَا جِبَالَ جِلْبُوعَ، لَا يَكُنْ عَلَيْكُنَّ طَلٌّ وَلا مَطَرٌ، وَلا حُقُولٌ تُغِلُّ مَحَاصِيلَ تَقْدِمَاتٍ، لأَنَّ هُنَاكَ تَهَاوَى تُرْسُ الأَبْطَالِ. تُرْسُ شَاوُلَ لَمْ يَعُدْ يَلْمَعُ بِالزَّيْتِ.

22 From [the] blood of [those] slain from [the] fat of [the] mighty [ones] [the] bow of Jonathan not it turned back backwards and [the] sword of Saul not it returned empty.

٢٢ مِنْ دَمِ الْقَتْلَى، وَمِنْ لَحْمِ الشُّجْعَانِ لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ قَوْسُ يُونَاثَانَ، وَسَيْفُ شَاوُلَ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ مُخْفِقاً.

23 Saul and Jonathan lovable and pleasant in lives their and in death their not they were separated more than eagles they were swift more than lions they were strong.

٢٣ شَاوُلُ وَيُونَاثَانُ الْمَحْبُوبَانِ، وَمَثَارَا الإِعْجَابِ فِي حَيَاتِهِمَا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا حَتَّى فِي الْمَوْتِ. كَانَا أَخَفَّ مِنَ النُّسُورِ، وَأَقْوَى مِنَ الأُسُودِ.

24 O daughters of Israel because of Saul weep who clothed you scarlet with luxuries who brought up ornament[s] of gold on clothing your.

٢٤ يَا بَنَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، نُحْنَ عَلَى شَاوُلَ الَّذِي أَلْبَسَكُنَّ ثِيَابَ الْقِرْمِزِ وَرَفَّهَكُنَّ وَزَيَّنَ ثِيَابَكُنَّ بِالْحُلِيِّ الذَّهَبِيَّةِ.

25 How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] in [the] middle of the battle Jonathan on high places your [is] slain.

٢٥ كَيْفَ تَهَاوَى الأَبْطَالُ فِي خِضَمِّ الْحَرْبِ؟ يُونَاثَانُ عَلَى رَوَابِيكِ مَقْتُولٌ.

26 It is distress to me on you O brother my Jonathan you were pleasant to me very it was wonderful love your to me more than [the] love of women.

٢٦ لَشَدَّ مَا تَضَايَقْتُ عَلَيْكَ ياأَخِي يُونَاثَانُ. كُنْتَ عَزِيزاً جِدّاً عَلَيَّ، وَمَحَبَّتُكَ لِي كَانَتْ مَحَبَّةً عَجِيبَةً، أَرْوَعَ مِنْ مَحَبَّةِ النِّسَاءِ.

27 How! they have fallen [the] mighty [ones] and they have perished [the] weapons of war.

٢٧ كَيْفَ تَهَاوَى الأَبْطَالُ وَفَنِيَتْ عُدَّةُ الْقِتَالِ».
