1 Samuel 24
1 And it came to pass, when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told to him, saying, Behold, David [is] in the wilderness of En-gedi.
| وَلَمَّا رَجَعَ شَاوُلُ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَخْبَرُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «هُوَذَا دَاوُدُ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ عَيْنِ جَدْيٍ». | ١ |
2 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
| فَأَخَذَ شَاوُلُ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ مُنْتَخَبِينَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَذَهَبَ يَطْلُبُ دَاوُدَ وَرِجَالَهُ عَلَى صُخُورِ ٱلْوُعُولِ. | ٢ |
3 And he came to the sheep-cotes by the way, where [was] a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.
| وَجَاءَ إِلَى صِيَرِ ٱلْغَنَمِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ كَهْفٌ فَدَخَلَ شَاوُلُ لِكَيْ يُغَطِّيَ رِجْلَيْهِ، وَدَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ كَانُوا جُلُوسًا فِي مَغَابِنِ ٱلْكَهْفِ. | ٣ |
4 And the men of David said to him, Behold the day of which the LORD said to thee, Behold, I will deliver thy enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good to thee. Then David arose, and privately cut off the skirt of Saul's robe.
| فَقَالَ رِجَالُ دَاوُدَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَكَ عَنْهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ عَدُوَّكَ لِيَدِكَ فَتَفْعَلُ بِهِ مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ». فَقَامَ دَاوُدُ وَقَطَعَ طَرَفَ جُبَّةِ شَاوُلَ سِرًّا. | ٤ |
5 And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ قَلْبَ دَاوُدَ ضَرَبَهُ عَلَى قَطْعِهِ طَرَفَ جُبَّةِ شَاوُلَ، | ٥ |
6 And he said to his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD'S anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, seeing he [is] the anointed of the LORD.
| فَقَالَ لِرِجَالِهِ: «حَاشَا لِي مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ أَعْمَلَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ بِسَيِّدِي، بِمَسِيحِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَمُدَّ يَدِي إِلَيْهِ، لِأَنَّهُ مَسِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ». | ٦ |
7 So David restrained his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose out of the cave, and went on [his] way.
| فَوَبَّخَ دَاوُدُ رِجَالَهُ بِٱلْكَلَامِ، وَلَمْ يَدَعْهُمْ يَقُومُونَ عَلَى شَاوُلَ. وَأَمَّا شَاوُلُ فَقَامَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَذَهَبَ فِي طَرِيقِهِ. | ٧ |
8 David also rose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth, and bowed himself.
| ثُمَّ قَامَ دَاوُدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَخَرَجَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهْفِ وَنَادَى وَرَاءَ شَاوُلَ قَائِلًا: «يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ». وَلَمَّا ٱلْتَفَتَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ، خَرَّ دَاوُدُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ. | ٨ |
9 And David said to Saul, Why hearest thou men's words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?
| وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِشَاوُلَ: «لِمَاذَا تَسْمَعُ كَلَامَ ٱلنَّاسِ ٱلْقَائِلِينَ: هُوَذَا دَاوُدُ يَطْلُبُ أَذِيَّتَكَ؟ | ٩ |
10 Behold, this day thy eyes have seen how the LORD hath delivered thee to-day into my hand in the cave; and [some] bade [me] kill thee: but [my eye] spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he [is] the LORD'S anointed.
| هُوَذَا قَدْ رَأَتْ عَيْنَاكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَذَا كَيْفَ دَفَعَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱليَومَ لِيَدِي فِي ٱلْكَهْفِ، وَقِيلَ لِي أَنْ أَقْتُلَكَ، وَلَكِنَّنِي أَشْفَقْتُ عَلَيْكَ وَقُلْتُ: لَا أَمُدُّ يَدِي إِلَى سَيِّدِي، لِأَنَّهُ مَسِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ. | ١٠ |
11 Moreover, my father, see, yes, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that [there is] neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.
| فَٱنْظُرْ يَا أَبِي، ٱنْظُرْ أَيْضًا طَرَفَ جُبَّتِكَ بِيَدِي. فَمِنْ قَطْعِي طَرَفَ جُبَّتِكَ وَعَدَمِ قَتْلِي إِيَّاكَ ٱعْلَمْ وَٱنْظُرْ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي يَدِي شَرٌّ وَلَا جُرْمٌ، وَلَمْ أُخْطِئْ إِلَيْكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَصِيدُ نَفْسِي لِتَأْخُذَهَا. | ١١ |
12 The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
| يَقْضِي ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ وَيَنْتَقِمُ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْكَ، وَلَكِنْ يَدِي لَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ. | ١٢ |
13 As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
| كَمَا يَقُولُ مَثَلُ ٱلْقُدَمَاءِ: مِنَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَخْرُجُ شَرٌّ. وَلَكِنْ يَدِي لَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ. | ١٣ |
14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea?
| وَرَاءَ مَنْ خَرَجَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ وَرَاءَ مَنْ أَنْتَ مُطَارِدٌ؟ وَرَاءَ كَلْبٍ مَيْتٍ! وَرَاءَ بُرْغُوثٍ وَاحِدٍ! | ١٤ |
15 The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.
| فَيَكُونُ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلدَّيَّانَ وَيَقْضِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ، وَيَرَى وَيُحَاكِمُ مُحَاكَمَتِي، وَيُنْقِذُنِي مِنْ يَدِكَ». | ١٥ |
16 And it came to pass when David had made an end of speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, [Is] this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
| فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ دَاوُدُ مِنَ ٱلتَّكَلُّمِ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ إِلَى شَاوُلَ، قَالَ شَاوُلُ: «أَهَذَا صَوْتُكَ يَا ٱبْنِي دَاوُدُ؟» وَرَفَعَ شَاوُلُ صَوْتَهُ وَبَكَى. | ١٦ |
17 And he said to David, thou [art] more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded thee with evil.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِدَاوُدَ: «أَنْتَ أَبَرُّ مِنِّي، لِأَنَّكَ جَازَيْتَنِي خَيْرًا وَأَنَا جَازَيْتُكَ شَرًّا. | ١٧ |
18 And thou hast showed this day how thou hast dealt with me; forasmuch as when the LORD had delivered me into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
| وَقَدْ أَظْهَرْتَ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنَّكَ عَمِلْتَ بِي خَيْرًا، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ دَفَعَنِي بِيَدِكَ وَلَمْ تَقْتُلْنِي. | ١٨ |
19 For if a man findeth his enemy, will he let him go away well? wherefore the LORD reward thee with good, for what thou hast done to me this day.
| فَإِذَا وَجَدَ رَجُلٌ عَدُوَّهُ، فَهَلْ يُطْلِقُهُ فِي طَرِيقِ خَيْرٍ؟ فَٱلرَّبُّ يُجَازِيكَ خَيْرًا عَمَّا فَعَلْتَهُ لِي ٱلْيَوْمَ هَذَا. | ١٩ |
20 And now, behold, I know well that thou wilt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in thy hand.
| وَٱلْآنَ فَإِنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ تَكُونُ مَلِكًا وَتَثْبُتُ بِيَدِكَ مَمْلَكَةُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٠ |
21 Swear now therefore to me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
| فَٱحْلِفْ لِي ٱلْآنَ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِنَّكَ لَا تَقْطَعُ نَسْلِي مِنْ بَعْدِي، وَلَا تُبِيدُ ٱسْمِي مِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِي». | ٢١ |
22 And David swore to Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men repaired to the hold.
| فَحَلَفَ دَاوُدُ لِشَاوُلَ. ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَأَمَّا دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ فَصَعِدُوا إِلَى ٱلْحِصْنِ. | ٢٢ |
