< 2 Samuel 1 >
1 After Saul died, David [and the men who were with him] returned to Ziklag [town] after defeating the descendants of Amalek. They stayed in Ziklag for two days.
At nangyari, pagkamatay ni Saul, nang magbalik si David na mula sa pagpatay sa mga Amalecita, at tumahan si David na dalawang araw sa Siclag;
2 On the third day, unexpectedly a man arrived there who had come from where Saul’s army was camped. He had torn his clothes and put dust on his head [to show that he was grieving]. He came to David, and prostrated himself on the ground [in front of David to show respect for him].
Ay nangyari, sa ikatlong araw, na narito, ang isang lalake ay lumabas sa kampamento na mula kay Saul na hapak ang kaniyang suot, at may lupa ang kaniyang ulo: at nagkagayon, na nang dumating siya kay David, ay nagpatirapa at nagbigay galang.
3 David asked him, “Where have you come from?” The man replied, “I escaped from where the Israeli army had been camped.”
At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Saan ka nanggaling? At kaniyang sinabi sa kaniya, Sa kampamento ng Israel ay tumakas ako.
4 David asked him, “What happened? Tell me [about the battle]!” The man replied, “The Israeli soldiers ran away from the battle. Many of them were killed. And Saul and his son Jonathan (are dead/were also killed).”
At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Ano ang nangyari? isinasamo ko sa iyo na iyong saysayin sa akin. At siya'y sumagot: Ang bayan ay tumakas sa pakikipagbaka, at karamihan sa bayan naman ay nangabuwal at nangamatay; at si Saul at si Jonathan na kaniyang anak ay nangamatay rin.
5 David said to the young man, “How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan are dead?”
At sinabi ni David sa binata na nagsaysay sa kaniya: Paanong nalalaman mo na si Saul at si Jonathan na kaniyang anak ay patay?
6 The young man replied, “It happened that I was on Gilboa Mountain [where the battle occurred], and I saw Saul, leaning on his spear. The [enemy] chariots and their drivers had come very close to Saul.
At sinabi sa kaniya ng binatang nagsaysay, Sa isang pagkakataon ay napasa bundok ako ng Gilboa, narito, si Saul ay nagpakabuwal sa kaniyang sibat; at, narito, hinahabol siyang mainam ng mga karo at ng mga mangangabayo.
7 Saul turned around and saw me, and he called out to me. I answered him and said, ‘What do you want me to do?’
At nang siya'y lumingon, kaniyang nakita ako, at tinawag niya ako, at ako'y sumagot: Narito ako.
8 He replied, ‘Who are you?’ I replied, ‘I am a descendant of Amalek.’
At sinabi niya sa akin, Sino ka? At ako'y sumagot sa kaniya, Ako'y isang Amalecita.
9 Then he said to me, ‘Come over here and kill me. I am still alive, but I am enduring a lot of pain.’
At kaniyang sinabi uli sa akin, Tumayo ka sa siping ko, isinasamo ko sa iyo, at patayin mo ako, dahil sa dinatnan ako ng panglulumo; sapagka't ang aking buhay ay lubos ko pang taglay.
10 So I went to him and killed him, because I knew that he was wounded very badly and would (not continue to live/soon die). I took the crown that was on his head and the band/bracelet that was on his arm, and I have brought them to you.”
Sa gayo'y tumayo ako sa siping niya, at aking pinatay siya, sapagka't talastas ko na siya'y hindi mabubuhay pagkatapos na siya'y nabuwal: at aking kinuha ang putong na nasa kaniyang ulo, at ang pulsera na nasa kaniyang kamay, at aking dinala rito sa aking panginoon.
11 Then David and all the men who were with him tore their clothes [to show that they were very sad].
Nang magkagayo'y tinangnan ni David ang kaniyang mga suot at pinaghapak; at gayon din ang ginawa ng lahat na lalake na kasama niya:
12 They mourned for Saul and his son Jonathan, and they cried and (fasted/abstained from eating food) until it was evening. They also mourned for all the army of Yahweh, and for all the Israeli people, because many of their soldiers had been killed in the battle [MTY].
At sila'y tumangis, at umiyak, at nagayuno hanggang sa paglubog ng araw, dahil kay Saul, at dahil kay Jonathan na kaniyang anak, at dahil sa bayan ng Panginoon, at dahil sa sangbahayan ng Israel; sapagka't sila'y nangabuwal sa pamamagitan ng tabak.
13 Then David asked the young man who had told him [about the battle], “Where are you from?” He replied, “My father is a descendant of Amalek, but we live in Israel.”
At sinabi ni David sa binata na nagsaysay sa kaniya, Taga saan ka? At siya'y sumagot: Ako'y anak ng isang taga ibang lupa, na Amalecita.
14 David asked him, “(Why were you not afraid [that you would be punished if you] killed Saul, whom Yahweh had appointed [MTY] [to be the king]?/You should have been afraid [that you would be punished if you] killed Saul, whom Yahweh had appointed [MTY] [to be the king].) [RHQ]
At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Bakit hindi ka natakot na iunat mo ang iyong kamay na patayin ang pinahiran ng langis ng Panginoon?
15 You yourself said, ‘I killed the man whom Yahweh appointed to be the king.’ So you have caused yourself to be guilty [MTY] of causing your own death!” Then David summoned one of his soldiers and said to him, “Kill him!” So the soldier killed him by striking him [with a sword].
At tinawag ni David ang isa sa mga bataan, at sinabi, Lumapit ka, at daluhungin mo siya. At kaniyang sinaktan siya, na anopa't namatay.
At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Ang iyong dugo ay sumaiyong ulo; sapagka't ang iyong bibig ang sumaksi laban sa iyo, na nagsasabi, Aking pinatay ang pinahiran ng langis ng Panginoon.
17 Then David composed/wrote this sad song about Saul and Jonathan,
At tinaghuyan ni David ng ganitong panaghoy si Saul at si Jonathan na kaniyang anak:
18 and he commanded that it be taught to the people of Judah. [The song is called] ‘The Bow [and Arrow]’ and it has been written in the Book of Jashar:
(At kaniyang ipinaturo sa mga anak ni Juda ang awit sa pamamana narito, nasusulat sa aklat ni Jaser):
19 “You Israeli people, your glorious [MTY] leaders have been killed on the mountains! [It is very sad that] those mighty men have died!
Ang iyong kaluwalhatian, Oh Israel, ay napatay sa iyong matataas na dako! Ano't nangabuwal ang mga makapangyarihan!
20 “Do not tell it [to our enemies in the Philistia area]; do not tell to the people who live in Gath [city] what happened; do not proclaim it in the streets of Ashkelon [city], because if you tell them, [even] the women in that area will be happy; do not allow those (pagan women/women who do not know God) to rejoice.
Huwag ninyong saysayin sa Gath, Huwag ninyong ihayag sa mga lansangan ng Ascalon; Baka ang mga anak na babae ng mga Filisteo ay mangagalak, Baka ang mga anak na babae ng mga hindi tuli ay magtagumpay.
21 I hope/desire that there will be no rain or dew on the mountains of [the] Gilboa [area] [APO], and that no grain will grow in the fields there, because there the shield of Saul, the mighty [king], fell on the ground. No one rubbed [olive] oil on Saul’s shield;
Kayong mga bundok ng Gilboa, Huwag magkaroon ng hamog, o ulan man sa inyo, kahit mga bukid na mga handog: Sapagka't diyan ang kalasag ng makapangyarihan ay nahagis ng kahalayhalay. Ang kalasag ni Saul, na parang isa, na hindi pinahiran ng langis.
22 instead, it was stained with the blood of those whom he had killed, and the fat of mighty enemy soldiers was smeared on it. Jonathan [PRS] did not retreat carrying his bow [and arrows], and Saul always [defeated his enemies when he fought them] with his sword. [PRS, LIT]
Sa dugo ng pinatay, sa taba ng makapangyarihan, Ang busog ni Jonathan ay hindi umurong, At ang tabak ni Saul ay hindi nagbalik na walang dala.
23 “Saul and Jonathan were loved and they pleased many people. They were together [LIT] while they lived and when they died. [In battles] they were swifter than eagles and they were stronger than lions.
Si Saul at si Jonathan ay nagibigan at nagmagandahang-loob sa kanilang kabuhayan. At sa kanilang kamatayan sila'y hindi naghiwalay; Sila'y lalong maliliksi kay sa mga agila, Sila'y lalong malalakas kay sa mga leon.
24 “You Israeli women, cry about Saul; He provided beautiful scarlet/red clothes for you and he gave you gold ornaments/jewelry to fasten on those clothes.
Kayong mga anak na babae ng Israel, iyakan ninyo si Saul, Na siyang sa inyo'y maselang na nagbihis ng escarlata, Na siyang naggayak ng ginto sa inyong mga kasuutan.
25 “[It is very sad that] this mighty soldier has died! Jonathan has been killed on the mountains/hills.
Ano't nangabuwal ang mga makapangyarihan sa gitna ng pagbabaka! Oh Jonathan, napatay ka sa iyong matataas na dako.
26 Jonathan, my dear friend, I grieve for you; you were very dear to me. You loved me in a wonderful manner; it was better than the way that a woman loves [her husband and her children].
Ako'y namanglaw dahil sa iyo, kapatid kong Jonathan: Naging totoong kalugodlugod ka sa akin; Ang iyong pag-ibig sa akin ay kagilagilalas, Na humihigit sa pagsinta ng mga babae.
27 “It is very sad that those mighty men have died, and their weapons are now abandoned!
Ano't nangabuwal ang mga makapangyarihan, At nangalipol ang mga sandata na pandigma!
