1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines collected their armies for warfare, to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to battle, thou and thy men.
| وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنَّ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ جَمَعُوا جُيُوشَهُمْ لِكَيْ يُحَارِبُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَقَالَ أَخِيشُ لِدَاوُدَ: «ٱعْلَمْ يَقِينًا أَنَّكَ سَتَخْرُجُ مَعِي فِي ٱلْجَيْشِ أَنْتَ وَرِجَالُكَ». | ١ |
2 And David said to Achish, Surely thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of my head for ever.
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِأَخِيشَ: «لِذَلِكَ أَنْتَ سَتَعْلَمُ مَا يَفْعَلُ عَبْدُكَ». فَقَالَ أَخِيشُ لِدَاوُدَ: «لِذَلِكَ أَجْعَلُكَ حَارِسًا لِرَأْسِي كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ». | ٢ |
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
| وَمَاتَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَنَدَبَهُ كُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي ٱلرَّامَةِ فِي مَدِينَتِهِ. وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ قَدْ نَفَى أَصْحَابَ ٱلْجَانِّ وَٱلتَّوَابِعِ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٣ |
4 And the Philistines assembled, and came and encamped in Shunem: and Saul collected all Israel, and they encamped in Gilboa.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَجَاءُوا وَنَزَلُوا فِي شُونَمَ، وَجَمَعَ شَاوُلُ جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَزَلَ فِي جِلْبُوعَ. | ٤ |
5 And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى شَاوُلُ جَيْشَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ خَافَ وَٱضْطَرَبَ قَلْبُهُ جِدًّا. | ٥ |
6 And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
| فَسَأَلَ شَاوُلُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لَا بِٱلْأَحْلَامِ وَلَا بِٱلْأُورِيمِ وَلَا بِٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ. | ٦ |
7 Then said Saul to his servants, seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, [there is] a woman that hath a familiar spirit at En-dor.
| فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ لِعَبِيدِهِ: «فَتِّشُوا لِي عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةٍ صَاحِبَةِ جَانٍّ، فَأَذْهَبَ إِلَيْهَا وَأَسْأَلَهَا». فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبِيدُهُ: «هُوَذَا ٱمْرَأَةٌ صَاحِبَةُ جَانٍّ فِي عَيْنِ دُورٍ». | ٧ |
8 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine to me by the familiar spirit, and bring up for me whom I shall name to thee.
| فَتَنَكَّرَ شَاوُلُ وَلَبِسَ ثِيَابًا أُخْرَى، وَذَهَبَ هُوَ وَرَجُلَانِ مَعَهُ وَجَاءُوا إِلَى ٱلْمَرْأَةِ لَيْلًا. وَقَالَ: «ٱعْرِفِي لِي بِٱلْجَانِّ وَأَصْعِدِي لِي مَنْ أَقُولُ لَكِ». | ٨ |
9 And the woman said to him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: Why then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ: «هُوَذَا أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ مَا فَعَلَ شَاوُلُ، كَيْفَ قَطَعَ أَصْحَابَ ٱلْجَانِّ وَٱلتَّوَابِعِ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. فَلِمَاذَا تَضَعُ شَرَكًا لِنَفْسِي لِتُمِيتَهَا؟» | ٩ |
10 And Saul swore to her by the LORD, saying, [As] the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
| فَحَلَفَ لَهَا شَاوُلُ بِٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَلْحَقُكِ إِثْمٌ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ». | ١٠ |
11 Then said the woman, whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
| فَقَالَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ: «مَنْ أُصْعِدُ لَكَ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَصْعِدِي لِي صَمُوئِيلَ». | ١١ |
12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou [art] Saul.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ صَمُوئِيلَ صَرَخَتْ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ، وَكَلَّمَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ شَاوُلَ قَائِلَةً: «لِمَاذَا خَدَعْتَنِي وَأَنْتَ شَاوُلَ؟» | ١٢ |
13 And the king said to her be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said to Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ: «لَا تَخَافِي. فَمَاذَا رَأَيْتِ؟» فَقَالَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ لِشَاوُلَ: «رَأَيْتُ آلِهَةً يَصْعَدُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ١٣ |
14 And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he [is] covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it [was] Samuel, and he stooped with [his] face to the ground, and bowed himself.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «مَا هِيَ صُورَتُهُ؟» فَقَالَتْ: «رَجُلٌ شَيْخٌ صَاعِدٌ وَهُوَ مُغَطًّى بِجُبَّةٍ». فَعَلِمَ شَاوُلُ أَنَّهُ صَمُوئِيلُ، فَخَرَّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ. | ١٤ |
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am grievously distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God hath departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known to me what I shall do.
| فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ لِشَاوُلَ: «لِمَاذَا أَقْلَقْتَنِي بِإِصْعَادِكَ إِيَّايَ؟» فَقَالَ شَاوُلُ: «قَدْ ضَاقَ بِي ٱلْأَمْرُ جِدًّا. اَلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ يُحَارِبُونَنِي، وَٱلرَّبُّ فَارَقَنِي وَلَمْ يَعُدْ يُجِيبُنِي لَا بِٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَلَا بِٱلْأَحْلَامِ. فَدَعَوْتُكَ لِكَيْ تُعْلِمَنِي مَاذَا أَصْنَعُ». | ١٥ |
16 Then said Samuel, Why then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD hath departed from thee, and hath become thy enemy?
| فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ: «وَلِمَاذَا تَسْأَلُنِي وَٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ فَارَقَكَ وَصَارَ عَدُوَّكَ؟ | ١٦ |
17 And the LORD hath done to him, as he spoke by me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbor, [even] to David:
| وَقَدْ فَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ عَنْ يَدِي، وَقَدْ شَقَّ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ مِنْ يَدِكَ وَأَعْطَاهَا لِقَرِيبِكَ دَاوُدَ. | ١٧ |
18 Because thou didst not obey the voice of the LORD, nor execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing to thee this day.
| لِأَنَّكَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلَمْ تَفْعَلْ حُمُوَّ غَضَبِهِ فِي عَمَالِيقَ، لِذَلِكَ قَدْ فَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِكَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ ٱلْيَوْمَ. | ١٨ |
19 Moreover, the LORD will also deliver Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and to-morrow [shalt] thou and thy sons [be] with me: the LORD also shall deliver the host of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
| وَيَدْفَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْضًا مَعَكَ لِيَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. وَغَدًا أَنْتَ وَبَنُوكَ تَكُونُونَ مَعِي، وَيَدْفَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ جَيْشَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْضًا لِيَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ». | ١٩ |
20 Then Saul fell immediately all along on the earth, and was exceedingly afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
| فَأَسْرَعَ شَاوُلُ وَسَقَطَ عَلَى طُولِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَخَافَ جِدًّا مِنْ كَلَامِ صَمُوئِيلَ، وَأَيْضًا لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيهِ قُوَّةٌ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَأْكُلْ طَعَامًا ٱلنَّهَارَ كُلَّهُ وَٱللَّيْلَ. | ٢٠ |
21 And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was greatly troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words, which thou didst speak to me.
| ثُمَّ جَاءَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى شَاوُلَ وَرَأَتْ أَنَّهُ مُرْتَاعٌ جِدًّا، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا قَدْ سَمِعَتْ جَارِيَتُكَ لِصَوْتِكَ فَوَضَعْتُ نَفْسِي فِي كَفِّي وَسَمِعْتُ لِكَلَامِكَ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمْتَنِي بِهِ. | ٢١ |
22 Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength, when thou goest on thy way.
| وَٱلْآنَ ٱسْمَعْ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا لِصَوْتِ جَارِيَتِكَ فَأَضَعَ قُدَّامَكَ كِسْرَةَ خُبْزٍ وَكُلْ، فَتَكُونَ فِيكَ قُوَّةٌ إِذْ تَسِيرُ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ». | ٢٢ |
23 But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, compelled him; and he hearkened to their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.
| فَأَبَى وَقَالَ: «لَا آكُلُ». فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ عَبْدَاهُ وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ أَيْضًا، فَسَمِعَ لِصَوْتِهِمْ وَقَامَ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَلَسَ عَلَى ٱلسَّرِيرِ. | ٢٣ |
24 And the woman had a fat calf in the house: and she hasted and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded [it], and baked unleavened bread of it.
| وَكَانَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ عِجْلٌ مُسَمَّنٌ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ، فَأَسْرَعَتْ وَذَبَحَتْهُ وَأَخَذَتْ دَقِيقًا وَعَجَنَتْهُ وَخَبَزَتْ فَطِيرًا، | ٢٤ |
25 And she brought [it] before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate. Then they arose and went away that night.
| ثُمَّ قَدَّمَتْهُ أَمَامَ شَاوُلَ وَأَمَامَ عَبْدَيْهِ فَأَكَلُوا. وَقَامُوا وَذَهَبُوا فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ. | ٢٥ |
