1 Tawarikh 10
1 Orang Filistin berperang melawan orang Israel. Orang-orang Israel melarikan diri dari hadapan orang Filistin dan banyak yang mati terbunuh di pegunungan Gilboa.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down wounded in mount Gelboe.
2 Orang Filistin terus mengejar Saul dan anak-anaknya dan menewaskan Yonatan, Abinadab dan Malkisua, anak-anak Saul.
And the Philistines drew near pursuing after Saul, and his sons, and they killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchisua the sons of Saul.
3 Kemudian makin beratlah pertempuran itu bagi Saul; para pemanah menjumpainya dan melukainya.
And the battle grew hard against Saul, and the archers reached him, and wounded him with arrows.
4 Lalu berkatalah Saul kepada pembawa senjatanya: "Hunuslah pedangmu dan tikamlah aku, supaya jangan datang orang-orang yang tidak bersunat ini memperlakukan aku sebagai permainan." Tetapi pembawa senjatanya tidak mau, karena ia sangat segan. Kemudian Saul mengambil pedang itu dan menjatuhkan dirinya ke atasnya.
And Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and mock me. But his armourbearer would not, for he was struck with fear: so Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
5 Ketika pembawa senjatanya melihat, bahwa Saul telah mati, iapun menjatuhkan dirinya ke atas pedangnya, lalu mati.
And when his armourbearer saw it, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died.
6 Jadi Saul, ketiga anaknya dan segenap keluarganya sama-sama mati.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house fell together.
7 Ketika dilihat seluruh orang Israel yang di lembah, bahwa tentara telah melarikan diri, dan bahwa Saul serta anak-anaknya sudah mati, maka mereka meninggalkan kota-kota mereka lalu melarikan diri juga; kemudian datanglah orang Filistin dan menetap di sana.
And when the men of Israel, that dwelt in the plains, saw this, they fled: and Saul and his sons being dead, they forsook their cities, and were scattered up and down: and the Philistines came, and dwelt in them.
8 Ketika keesokan harinya orang Filistin datang merampasi orang-orang yang mati terbunuh itu, didapati mereka Saul dan anak-anaknya tergelimpang di pegunungan Gilboa.
And the next day the Philistines taking away the spoils of them that were slain, found Saul and his sons lying on mount Gelboe.
9 Mereka merampasinya dan mengambil kepala Saul dan senjata-senjatanya, lalu menyuruh orang berkeliling di negeri orang Filistin untuk menyampaikan kabar itu kepada berhala-berhala mereka dan kepada rakyat.
And when they had stripped him, and cut off his head, and taken away his armour, they sent it into their land, to be carried about, and shewn in the temples of the idols and to the people.
10 Kemudian mereka menaruh senjata-senjata Saul di kuil allah mereka, tetapi batu kepalanya dipakukan mereka di rumah Dagon.
And his armour they dedicated in the temple of their god, and his head they fastened up in the temple of Dagon.
11 Ketika seluruh Yabesh-Gilead mendengar tentang segala yang telah dilakukan orang Filistin terhadap Saul,
And when the men of Jabes Galaad had heard this, to wit, all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 maka bersiaplah segenap orang gagah perkasa, lalu pergi mengambil mayat Saul dan mayat anak-anaknya. Mereka membawanya ke Yabesh dan menguburkan tulang-tulang mereka di bawah pohon besar, di Yabesh. Sesudah itu berpuasalah mereka tujuh hari lamanya.
All the valiant men of them arose, and took the bodies of Saul and of his sons, and brought them to Jabes, and buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabes, and they fasted seven days.
13 Demikianlah Saul mati karena perbuatannya yang tidak setia terhadap TUHAN, oleh karena ia tidak berpegang pada firman TUHAN, dan juga karena ia telah meminta petunjuk dari arwah,
So Saul died for his iniquities, because he transgressed the commandment of the Lord, which he had commanded, and kept it not: and moreover consulted also a witch,
14 dan tidak meminta petunjuk TUHAN. Sebab itu TUHAN membunuh dia dan menyerahkan jabatan raja itu kepada Daud bin Isai.
And trusted not is the Lord: therefore he slew him, and transferred his kingdom to David the son of Isai.
