II Samuel 1
1 Kalpasan ti pannakatay ni Saul, nagsubli ni David manipud iti panangrautna kadagiti Amalekita ket nagtalinaed isuna iti dua nga aldaw idiay Siklag.
And it cometh to pass, after the death of Saul, that David hath returned from smiting the Amalekite, and David dwelleth in Ziklag two days,
2 Iti maikatlo nga aldaw, adda maysa a lalaki a simmangpet manipud iti kampo ni Saul a napisang ti badona ken adda rugit iti ulona. Idi simmangpet isuna iti ayan ni David, ket nagpakleb isuna iti daga.
and it cometh to pass, on the third day, that lo, a man hath come in out of the camp from Saul, and his garments [are] rent, and earth on his head; and it cometh to pass, in his coming in unto David, that he falleth to the earth, and doth obeisance.
3 Kinuna ni David kenkuana, “Sadino ti naggapuam?” Simmungbat isuna, “Naglibasak manipud iti kampo ti Israel,”
And David saith to him, 'Whence comest thou?' and he saith unto him, 'Out of the camp of Israel I have escaped.'
4 Kinuna ni David kenkuana, “Pangngaasim ta ibagam kaniak no ania ti napasamak.” Simmungbat isuna, “Naglibas dagiti tattao manipud iti gubat. Adu ti napasag ken adu dagiti natay. Natay met da Saul kenni Jonatan nga anakna.”
And David saith unto him, 'What hath been the matter? declare, I pray thee, to me.' And he saith, that 'The people hath fled from the battle, and also a multitude hath fallen of the people, and they die; and also Saul and Jonathan his son have died.'
5 Kinuna ni David iti agtutubo, “Kasanom nga ammo a natay da Saul ken Jonatan nga anakna?”
And David saith unto the youth who is declaring [it] to him, 'How hast thou known that Saul and Jonathan his son [are] dead?'
6 Simmungbat ti agtutubo, “Nairana nga addaak idiay bantay Gilboa, ket adda sadiay ni Saul nga agsadsadag iti gayangna, ket asidegen dagiti karwahe ken kumakabalio a kabusor a mangtiliw kenkuana.
And the youth who is declaring [it] to him saith, I happened to meet in mount Gilboa, and lo, Saul is leaning on his spear; and lo, the chariots and those possessing horses have followed him;
7 Kimmita Saul iti aglawlaw ket nakitanak ket inayabannak. Simmungbatak, 'Adtoyak.'
and he turneth behind him, and seeth me, and calleth unto me, and I say, Here [am] I.
8 Kinunana kaniak, 'Siasinoka?' Sinungbatak isuna, 'Maysaak nga Amalekita.'
And he saith to me, Who [art] thou? and I say unto him, An Amalekite I [am].'
9 Kinunana kaniak, 'Pangngaasim ta umasidegka kaniak ket patayennak, ta tengngelnak ti nakaro a panagsagaba, ngem sibibiagak pay laeng.'
'And he saith unto me, Stand, I pray thee, over me, and put me to death, for seized me hath the arrow, for all my soul [is] still in me.
10 Isu nga imasidegak kenkuana ket pinatayko isuna, gapu ta ammok a saanen nga agbiag kalpasan a mapasag isuna. Ket innalak ti korona nga adda iti ulona ken ti pulseras nga adda iti takkiagna, ket inyegko dagitoy ditoy kenka, apok.”
And I stand over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he doth not live after his falling, and I take the crown which [is] on his head, and the bracelet which [is] on his arm, and bring them in unto my lord hither.'
11 Ket, pinisang ni David dagiti pagan-anayna, ken kasta met ti inaramid dagiti amin a lallaki a kaduana.
And David taketh hold on his garments, and rendeth them, and also all the men who [are] with him,
12 Nagladingit, nagsangit ken nagayunarda agingga iti rabii para kenni Saul, para kenni Jonatan nga anakna, para kadagiti tattao ni Yahweh ken para iti balay ti Israel gapu ta napasagda babaen iti kampilan.
and they mourn, and weep, and fast till the evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel, because they have fallen by the sword.
13 Kinuna ni David iti agtutubo, “Taga-anoka?” Simmungbat isuna, “Anaknak ti maysa a ganggannaet iti daytoy a daga, maysaak nga Amalekita.”
And David saith unto the youth who is declaring [it] to him, 'Whence [art] thou?' and he saith, 'Son of a sojourner, an Amalekite, I [am].'
14 Kinuna ni David kenkuana, “Apay a saanka a nagbuteng a nangpatay iti ari a pinulotan ni Yahweh babaen iti bukodmo nga ima?”
And David saith unto him, 'How wast thou not afraid to put forth thy hand to destroy the anointed of Jehovah?'
15 Inayaban ni David iti maysa kadagiti agtutubo ket kinunana “Inka ket patayen isuna.” Isu a napan dinuyok dayta a lalaki ti Amalekita, ket natay ti Amalekita.
And David calleth to one of the youths, and saith, 'Draw nigh — fall upon him;' and he smiteth him, and he dieth;
16 Ket kinuna ni David iti natay nga Amalekita, adda iti ulom ti bukodmo a dara gapu ta ti bukodmo a ngiwat ti nangpaneknek iti maibusor kenka ket kinunam, 'Pinatayko ti ari a pinulotan ni Yahweh.'”
and David saith unto him, 'Thy blood [is] on thine own head, for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I — I put to death the anointed of Jehovah.'
17 Kalpasanna, kinanta ni David daytoy a dung-aw maipapan kada Saul ken Jonatan nga anakna.
And David lamenteth with this lamentation over Saul, and over Jonathan his son;
18 Imbilinna kadagiti tattao nga isuroda daytoy a Kanta ti Bai kadagiti lallaki a putot ti Juda, a naisurat iti Libro ti Jasar.
and he saith to teach the sons of Judah 'The Bow;' lo, it is written on the book of the Upright: —
19 “Ti dayagmo, Israel, ket natayen, napapatay kadagiti bantaymo! Kasano a napasag ti maingel!
'The Roebuck, O Israel, On thy high places [is] wounded; How have the mighty fallen!
20 Saanmo nga ibagbaga daytoy idiay Gat, saanmo nga iwarwaragawag daytoy kadagiti kalsada iti Askelon, tapno saan a makapagrag-o dagiti babbai a putot dagiti Filisteo, tapno saan a makapagrambak dagiti babbai a putot dagiti saan a nakugit.
Declare [it] not in Gath, Proclaim not the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon, Lest they rejoice — The daughters of the Philistines, Lest they exult — The daughters of the Uncircumcised!
21 Banbantay ti Gilboa, awan koma kadakayo ti linnaaw wenno tudo, wenno talon a mangmangted kadagiti bukbukel nga aggpaay a daton, ta sadiay ket narugitan ti kalasag ti maingel. Ti kalasag ni Saul a saanen a napulotan iti lana.
Mountains of Gilboa! No dew nor rain be on you, And fields of heave-offerings! For there hath become loathsome The shield of the mighty, The shield of Saul — without the anointed with oil.
22 Manipud iti dara dagidiay napapatay, manipud kadagiti bagi dagiti maingel, saanen a nagsubli ti bai ni Jonatan, ken saan a nagsubli nga awan naaramidan ti kampilan ni Saul.
From the blood of the wounded, From the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan Hath not turned backward; And the sword of Saul doth not return empty.
23 Ni Saul ken Jonatan ket maay-ayat ken managparabur iti panagbiag, ken iti ipapatayda ket saanda a nagsina. Nasigsiglatda ngem kadagiti agila, napigpigsada ngem kadagiti leon.
Saul and Jonathan! They are loved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they have not been parted. Than eagles they have been lighter, Than lions they have been mightier!
24 Dakayo a babbai nga annak ti Israel, sangitanyo ni Saul, a nangkawes kadakayo iti napintas nga eskarlata, a nangarkos iti balitok kadagiti pagan-anaayyo.
Daughters of Israel! for Saul weep ye, Who is clothing you [in] scarlet with delights. Who is lifting up ornaments of gold on your clothing.
25 Anian a pannakapasag ti maingel iti paggugubatan! Napapatay ni Jonatan kadagiti nangangato a lugarmo.
How have the mighty fallen In the midst of the battle! Jonathan! on thy high places wounded!
26 Maladigitanak unay para kenka Jonatan a kabsatko. Napategka unay kaniak. Nakaskasdaaw ti ayatmo kaniak, nalablabes ngem iti panagayat dagiti babbai.
I am in distress for thee, my brother Jonathan, Very pleasant wast thou to me; Wonderful was thy love to me, Above the love of women!
27 Anian a pannakapasag ti maingel, ken ti pannakapukaw dagiti igam a panggubat!”
How have the mighty fallen, Yea, the weapons of war perish!'
