1 Samuel 14
1 One day, Jonathan said to the young man who carried his weapons, “Come with me; we will go over to where the Philistia soldiers have put up their tents.” [So they went], but Jonathan did not tell his father [what they were going to do].
| و روزی واقع شد که یوناتان پسر شاول به جوان سلاح دار خود گفت: «بیا تا به قراول فلسطینیان که به آن طرفند بگذریم.» اماپدر خود را خبر نداد. | ۱ |
2 On that day, Saul and the 600 soldiers who were with him were sitting around a pomegranate tree at a place where the people threshed grain, near Gibeah.
| و شاول در کناره جبعه زیر درخت اناری که در مغرون است، ساکن بود وقومی که همراهش بودند تخمین ششصد نفربودند. | ۲ |
3 Ahijah the priest was also there. He was wearing the sacred vest. Ahijah was the son of Ahitub, who was a brother of Ichabod. Ichabod and Ahitub were the sons of Phinehas, who was the son of Eli, who had been Yahweh’s priest at Shiloh. No one knew that Jonathan had left [the Israeli camp].
| و اخیا ابن اخیطوب برادر ایخابودبن فینحاس بن عیلی، کاهن خداوند، در شیلوه باایفود ملبس شده بود، و قوم از رفتن یوناتان خبرنداشتند. | ۳ |
4 Jonathan planned that he and the young man would go through a narrow (pass/place between two cliffs) to get to where the Philistia army was. The cliff on one side of the pass was named Bozez, and the other cliff was named Seneh.
| و در میان معبرهایی که یوناتان می خواست از آنها نزد قراول فلسطینیان بگذرد، یک صخره تیز به این طرف و یک صخره تیز به آن طرف بود، که اسم یکی بوصیص و اسم دیگری سنه بود. | ۴ |
5 One cliff faced north toward Micmash, and the cliff on the other side faced south toward Geba [town].
| و یکی از این صخره‌ها به طرف شمال در برابر مخماس ایستاده بود، و دیگری به طرف جنوب در برابر جبعه. | ۵ |
6 Jonathan said to the young man who carried his weapons, “Come with me. We will go to where those (pagans/people who do not believe in Yahweh) [MTY] have set up their tents. Perhaps Yahweh will help us. It does not matter whether we are only two men or many people; nothing can hinder Yahweh from enabling us to defeat them.”
| و یوناتان به جوان سلاحدار خود گفت: «بیانزد قراول این نامختونان بگذریم شاید خداوندبرای ما عمل کند زیرا که خداوند را از رهانیدن باکثیر یا با قلیل مانعی نیست.» | ۶ |
7 The young man who was carrying Jonathan’s weapons said, “Do what you think is the best thing for us to do. I will help you.”
| و سلاحدارش به وی گفت: «هرچه در دلت باشد، عمل نما. پیش برو؛ اینک من موافق رای تو با تو هستم.» | ۷ |
8 Then Jonathan said, “Okay, come with me. We will cross the valley to where the Philistia army is, and allow them to see us.
| ویوناتان گفت: «اینک ما به طرف این مردمان گذرنماییم و خود را به آنها ظاهر سازیم، | ۸ |
9 If they then say to us, ‘You two stay there until we come down to you,’ we will stay there and not go up to them.
| اگر به ماچنین گویند: بایستید تا نزد شما برسیم، آنگاه درجای خود خواهیم ایستاد و نزد ایشان نخواهیم رفت. | ۹ |
10 But if they say to us, ‘Come up here [and fight against] us,’ that will show us that Yahweh will enable us to defeat them. Then we will go up and fight them.”
| اما اگر چنین گویند که نزد ما برآیید، آنگاه خواهیم رفت زیرا خداوند ایشان را به‌دست ما تسلیم نموده است و به جهت ما، این علامت خواهد بود.» | ۱۰ |
11 When the two of them crossed the valley, the Philistia soldiers saw them coming. They said, “Look! The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes in which they have been hiding!”
| پس هر دوی ایشان خویشتن را به قراول فلسطینیان ظاهر ساختند و فلسطینیان گفتند: «اینک عبرانیان از حفره هایی که خود را در آنهاپنهان ساخته‌اند، بیرون می‌آیند.» | ۱۱ |
12 Then the Philistia soldiers who were closest to Jonathan and the young man who carried his weapons said, “Come up here, and we will teach you something [about how to fight] [IDM]!” Jonathan said to the young man who was with him, “Come behind me and climb up, because Yahweh is going to help us to defeat them!”
| و قراولان، یوناتان و سلاحدارش را خطاب کرده، گفتند: «نزد ما برآیید تا چیزی به شما نشان دهیم.» ویوناتان به سلاحدار خود گفت که «در عقب من بیازیرا خداوند ایشان را به‌دست اسرائیل تسلیم نموده است.» | ۱۲ |
13 So Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and his feet [because it was very steep]. The young man climbed up following him. As Jonathan climbed, he struck and killed many Philistia soldiers, and the young man who was with him killed many more as he followed behind Jonathan.
| و یوناتان به‌دست و پای خود نزد ایشان بالارفت و سلاحدارش در عقب وی، و ایشان پیش روی یوناتان افتادند و سلاحدارش در عقب او می کشت. | ۱۳ |
14 In that first battle the two of them killed about 20 Philistia soldiers in an area that was about half an acre.
| و این کشتار اول که یوناتان وسلاحدارش کردند به قدر بیست نفر بود در قریب نصف شیار یک جفت گاو زمین. | ۱۴ |
15 Then all the other Philistia soldiers, the ones in the camp and the ones who had been attacking the Israeli towns, ones who were out in the field much closer, panicked. Then God caused the ground to shake, and they all became terrified/very afraid.
| و در اردو وصحرا و تمامی قوم تزلزل در‌افتاد و قراولان وتاراج کنندگان نیز لرزان شدند و زمین متزلزل شد، پس تزلزل عظیمی واقع گردید. | ۱۵ |
16 Saul’s (lookouts/men who were watching to see if enemies were coming) were in Gibeah [town] in the land of the tribe of Benjamin. They saw that the soldiers of the Philistia army were running away in all directions.
| و دیده بانان شاول در جبعه بنیامین نگاه کردند و اینک آن انبوه گداخته شده، به هر طرف پراکنده می‌شدند. | ۱۶ |
17 Saul [realized that some of his soldiers must have attacked the Philistia army. So he] said to the soldiers who were with him, “Check to see if any of our men are not here.” So they checked, and they found out that Jonathan and the man who carried his weapons were gone.
| و شاول به قومی که همراهش بودند، گفت: «الان تفحص کنید و ببینیداز ما که بیرون رفته است؟» پس تفحص کردند که اینک یوناتان و سلاحدارش حاضر نبودند. | ۱۷ |
18 So Saul said to Ahijah [the Supreme Priest], “Bring the sacred vest here [and find out what we should do].” On that day Ahijah was wearing the sacred vest, going in front of the Israelis.
| وشاول به اخیا گفت: «تابوت خدا را نزدیک بیاور.» زیرا تابوت خدا در آن وقت همراه بنی‌اسرائیل بود. | ۱۸ |
19 But while Saul was talking to the priest, [he saw that] the Philistia soldiers were becoming more panicked/confused. So Saul said to Ahijah, “Take your hand down [from the sacred vest. Do not waste any more time using the marked stones in the vest to find out what Yahweh wants us to do.”]
| و واقع شد چون شاول با کاهن سخن می‌گفت که اغتشاش در اردوی فلسطینیان زیاده وزیاده می‌شد، و شاول به کاهن گفت: «دست خودرا نگاهدار.» | ۱۹ |
20 Then Saul gathered his men and they went toward the battle. They found that the Philistia soldiers were so confused that they were striking each other with their swords.
| و شاول و تمامی قومی که با وی بودندجمع شده، به جنگ آمدند، و اینک شمشیر هرکس به ضد رفیقش بود و قتال بسیار عظیمی بود. | ۲۰ |
21 Before that, some of the Hebrew men had deserted their army and gone to join with the Philistia army. But now those men [revolted and] joined with Saul and Jonathan and the other Israeli soldiers.
| و عبرانیانی که قبل از آن با فلسطینیان بودند وهمراه ایشان از اطراف به اردو آمده بودند، ایشان نیز نزد اسرائیلیانی که با شاول و یوناتان بودند، برگشتند. | ۲۱ |
22 Some of the Israeli soldiers had previously run away and hidden in the mountains where the tribe of Ephraim lived. But when they heard that the Philistia soldiers were running away, they [came down and] joined the other Israeli soldiers and pursued the Philistia soldiers.
| و تمامی مردان اسرائیل نیز که خودرا در کوهستان افرایم پنهان کرده بودند چون شنیدند که فلسطینیان منهزم شده‌اند، ایشان را درجنگ تعاقب نمودند. | ۲۲ |
23 So Yahweh rescued the Israelis on that day. The Israeli soldiers continued to pursue their enemies beyond Beth-Aven [town].
| پس خداوند در آن روزاسرائیل را نجات داد و جنگ تا بیت آون رسید. | ۲۳ |
24 Before Saul’s soldiers went to the battle, Saul declared to them solemnly, “I do not want any of you to eat any food before this evening, before we have defeated all our enemies. If anyone eats anything, [Yahweh] will curse/punish him.” So none of the Israeli soldiers ate any food, and they became faint/weak because they were very hungry.
| و مردان اسرائیل آن روز در تنگی بودندزیرا که شاول قوم را قسم داده، گفته بود: «تا من ازدشمنان خود انتقام نکشیده باشم ملعون باد کسی که تا شام طعام بخورد.» و تمامی قوم طعام نچشیدند. | ۲۴ |
25 The Israeli army went into the forest, and they found honeycombs on the ground, but they did not eat any honey.
| و تمامی قوم به جنگلی رسیدند که در آنجا عسل بر روی زمین بود. | ۲۵ |
26 They were afraid to eat any, because they had solemnly promised that they would not eat any food.
| و چون قوم به جنگل داخل شدند، اینک عسل می‌چکید امااحدی دست خود را به دهانش نبرد زیرا قوم ازقسم ترسیدند. | ۲۶ |
27 But Jonathan did not hear what his father commanded [because he had left the camp very early in the morning]. So [when he saw] a honeycomb, he dipped the end of his walking stick into it and ate some honey. After he ate the honey, he felt stronger.
| لیکن یوناتان هنگامی که پدرش به قوم قسم می‌داد نشنیده بود، پس نوک عصایی را که در دست داشت دراز کرده، آن را به‌شان عسل فرو برد، و دست خود را به دهانش برده، چشمان او روشن گردید. | ۲۷ |
28 But one of the Israeli soldiers saw him and said to him, “Your father solemnly declared to us that [Yahweh] would curse/punish anyone who ate any food today. So now we are [very tired and] weak from being hungry [because we obeyed him].”
| و شخصی از قوم به او توجه نموده، گفت: «پدرت قوم را قسم سخت داده، گفت: ملعون بادکسی‌که امروز طعام خورد.» و قوم بی‌تاب شده بودند. | ۲۸ |
29 Jonathan exclaimed, “My father has caused trouble for all of us! See how refreshed/strong I am after eating a little honey!
| و یوناتان گفت: «پدرم زمین را مضطرب ساخته است، الان ببینید که چشمانم چه قدرروشن شده است که اندکی از این عسل چشیده‌ام. | ۲۹ |
30 If he had permitted all of us to eat from the food we took from our enemies while we were pursuing them, we would have been able to kill many more of their soldiers!”
| و چه قدر زیاده اگر امروز قوم از غارت دشمنان خود که یافته‌اند بی‌ممانعت می‌خوردند، آیا قتال فلسطینیان بسیار زیاده نمی شد؟» | ۳۰ |
31 The Israelis pursued and killed Philistia soldiers all that day, from Micmash [town west] to Aijalon. But they continued to become weaker from being hungry.
| و در آن روز فلسطینیان را از مخماس تاایلون منهزم ساختند و قوم بسیار بی‌تاب شدند. | ۳۱ |
32 They had taken [many] sheep and cattle that the Philistia soldiers had abandoned. Now, because they were extremely hungry, they butchered some of those animals and ate the meat without draining the blood from the animals.
| و قوم بر غنیمت حمله کرده، از گوسفندان وگاوان و گوساله‌ها گرفته، بر زمین کشتند و قوم آنهارا با خون خوردند. | ۳۲ |
33 One of the soldiers told Saul, “Look! The men are sinning against Yahweh by eating meat that still has blood in it!” Saul replied [to the men who were near him], “They have disobeyed Yahweh! Roll a large stone over here!”
| و شاول را خبر داده، گفتند: «اینک قوم به خداوند گناه ورزیده، با خون می‌خورند.» گفت: «شما خیانت ورزیده‌اید امروزسنگی بزرگ نزد من بغلطانید.» | ۳۳ |
34 After they did that, he said to those men, “Go and tell all the soldiers that each of them must bring an ox or a sheep to me, and kill it here on this stone, [and drain the blood] before he eats any of the meat. They should not sin against Yahweh by eating meat [from some animal] without draining its blood.” So that night all the soldiers brought animals and slaughtered them there. Then Saul built an altar to [worship] Yahweh.
| و شاول گفت: «خود را در میان قوم منتشر ساخته، به ایشان بگویید: هر کس گاو خود و هر کس گوسفند خود را نزد من بیاورد و در اینجا ذبح نموده، بخورید وبه خدا گناه نورزیده، با خون مخورید.» و تمامی قوم در آن شب هر کس گاوش را با خود آورده، در آنجا ذبح کردند. | ۳۴ |
35 That was the first [time that he built an] altar for Yahweh.
| و شاول مذبحی برای خداوند بنا کرد و این مذبح اول بود که برای خداوند بنا نمود. | ۳۵ |
36 Then Saul said [to the Israeli soldiers], “Let’s pursue the Philistia soldiers tonight. We can attack them all night. We will not allow any of them to escape alive.” The Israeli soldiers answered, “We will do whatever you think is the best thing for us to do.” But the priest said, “We should ask Yahweh [what he thinks we should do].”
| و شاول گفت: «امشب در عقب فلسطینیان برویم و آنها را تا روشنایی صبح غارت کرده، ازایشان احدی را باقی نگذاریم.» ایشان گفتند: «هرچه در نظرت پسند آید بکن.» و کاهن گفت: «دراینجا به خدا تقرب بجوییم.» | ۳۶ |
37 So Saul asked God, “Should we pursue the Philistine soldiers? Will you enable us to defeat them?” But God did not answer Saul that day.
| و شاول از خداسوال نمود که آیا از عقب فلسطینیان برویم و آیاایشان را به‌دست اسرائیل خواهی داد، اما در آن روز او را جواب نداد. | ۳۷ |
38 Then Saul summoned all the leaders of his army. He said to them, “[I am sure that God has not answered me because] someone has sinned. We must find out what sin someone has committed.
| آنگاه شاول گفت: «ای تمامی روسای قوم به اینجا نزدیک شوید و بدانیدو ببینید که امروز این گناه در چه چیز است. | ۳۸ |
39 Yahweh has rescued us [from the Philistia army]. Just as certain as Yahweh lives, whoever has sinned must be executed. Even if it is my son Jonathan who has sinned, he must be executed.” [His men knew who was guilty], but none of them said anything [to Saul].
| زیرا قسم به حیات خداوند رهاننده اسرائیل که اگر در پسرم یوناتان هم باشد، البته خواهدمرد.» لیکن از تمامی قوم احدی به او جواب نداد. | ۳۹ |
40 Then Saul said to all the Israeli soldiers, “You stand on one side. My son Jonathan and I will stand on the other side.” His men replied, “Do whatever you think is best.”
| پس به تمامی اسرائیل گفت: «شما به یک طرف باشید و من با پسر خود یوناتان به یک طرف باشیم.» و قوم به شاول گفتند: «هرچه در نظرت پسند آید، بکن.» | ۴۰ |
41 Then Saul prayed to Yahweh, the Israelis’ God, “Tell me who is guilty and who is not guilty.” Then the priest (cast lots/threw the stones that were marked), and they indicated that it was [either] Jonathan or Saul who was the guilty one, and that the other men were not guilty.
| و شاول به یهوه، خدای اسرائیل گفت: «قرعه‌ای راست بده.» پس یوناتان و شاول گرفته شدند و قوم رها گشتند. | ۴۱ |
42 Then Saul said to the priest, “Throw the stones again to indicate which of us two is guilty.” So he did, and the stones indicated that Jonathan was the guilty one.
| و شاول گفت: «در میان من و پسرم یوناتان قرعه بیندازید.» و یوناتان گرفته شد. | ۴۲ |
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done [that was wrong].” Jonathan replied, “I ate a little bit of honey. It was only a little bit that was on the end of my stick. Do I [deserve to be] executed [because of doing that]?”
| و شاول به یوناتان گفت: «مرا خبر ده که چه کرده‌ای؟» و یوناتان به او خبر داده، گفت: «به نوک عصایی که در دست دارم اندکی عسل چشیدم واینک باید بمیرم؟» | ۴۳ |
44 Saul replied, “Yes, you must be executed! I hope/wish that God will strike me and kill me if you are not executed for having done that!”
| و شاول گفت: «خدا چنین بلکه زیاده از این بکند‌ای یوناتان! زیرا البته خواهی مرد.» | ۴۴ |
45 But the Israeli soldiers said to Saul, “Jonathan has won a great victory for all us Israelis. Should he be executed for eating some honey [RHQ]? Certainly not! Just as surely as Yahweh lives, we will not allow you to injure him in any manner [IDM], [because] today God helped Jonathan [to kill many soldiers of the Philistia army]!” So [by saying that] the Israeli soldiers rescued Jonathan, and he was not executed.
| اما قوم به شاول گفتند: «آیایوناتان که نجات عظیم را در اسرائیل کرده است، باید بمیرد؟ حاشا! قسم به حیات خداوند که مویی از سرش به زمین نخواهد افتاد زیرا که امروز با خدا عمل نموده است.» پس قوم یوناتان را خلاص نمودند که نمرد. | ۴۵ |
46 Then Saul ordered his soldiers to stop pursuing the Philistia army, so the Philistia soldiers returned to their homes.
| و شاول از تعاقب فلسطینیان باز آمد و فلسطینیان به‌جای خودرفتند. | ۴۶ |
47 After Saul became the ruler/king of the Israeli people, his army fought against their enemies in many areas. They fought against armies of the Moab people-group, the Ammon people-group, the Edom people-group, the kings of Zobah [city/area], and the Philistia people-group. Wherever the Israeli army fought, they defeated their enemies.
| و شاول عنان سلطنت اسرائیل را به‌دست گرفت و با جمیع دشمنان اطراف خود، یعنی باموآب و بنی عمون و ادوم و ملوک صوبه وفلسطینیان جنگ کرد و به هر طرف که توجه می‌نمود، غالب می‌شد. | ۴۷ |
48 Saul’s army fought bravely and defeated the [very tall] descendants of Amalek. His army rescued the Israelis from those who had (plundered/forcefully taken things from) them.
| و به دلیری عمل می‌نمود و عمالیقیان را شکست داده، اسرائیل رااز دست تاراج کنندگان ایشان رهانید. | ۴۸ |
49 Saul’s sons were Jonathan, Ishbosheth, and Malchishua. He also had two daughters, Merab and her younger sister Michal.
| و پسران شاول، یوناتان و یشوی و ملکیشوبودند. و اسمهای دخترانش این است: اسم نخست زاده‌اش میرب و اسم کوچک میکال. | ۴۹ |
50 Saul’s wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. The commander of Saul’s army was Abner, who was the son of Saul’s uncle Ner.
| واسم زن شاول اخینوعام، دختر اخیمعاص، بود واسم سردار لشکرش ابنیر بن نیر، عموی شاول بود. | ۵۰ |
51 Saul’s father Kish and Abner’s father Ner were both sons of Abiel.
| و قیس پدر شاول بود و نیر پدر ابنیر و پسرابیئیل بود. | ۵۱ |
52 All the time that Saul was alive, his army fought against the Philistia army. And whenever Saul saw a young man who was (brave/not afraid to fight) and strong, he forced him to join his army.
| و در تمامی روزهای شاول با فلسطینیان جنگ سخت بود و هر صاحب قوت و صاحب شجاعت که شاول می‌دید، او را نزد خودمی آورد. | ۵۲ |
