Pirmā Samuela 31
1 Un Fīlisti karoja pret Israēli un Israēla vīri bēga no Fīlistiem un krita nokauti uz Ģilboas kalniem.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
2 Un Fīlisti lauzās uz Saulu un uz viņa dēliem, un nokāva Jonatānu un Abinadabu un Malķizuū, Saula dēlus.
The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 Un tā kaušanās bija briesmīga pret Saulu, un strēlnieki to aizņēma ar saviem stopiem, un viņš tapa ļoti ievainots no tiem strēlniekiem.
The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers.
4 Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu bruņu nesēju: izvelc savu zobenu un nodur mani ar to, ka šie neapgraizītie nenāk un mani nenodur un mani neliek smieklā. Bet viņa bruņu nesējs negribēja, jo viņš bijās ļoti. Tad Sauls ņēma zobenu un metās uz to.
Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through and abuse me!” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on it.
5 Kad nu viņa bruņu nesējs redzēja, ka Sauls bija miris, tad tas arīdzan metās savā zobenā un mira līdz ar viņu.
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him.
6 Tā Sauls nomira un viņa trīs dēli un viņa bruņu nesējs un visi viņa vīri tai dienā kopā.
So Saul died with his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men that same day together.
7 Kad nu Israēla vīri, kas bija viņpus tās ielejas un viņpus Jardānes, redzēja, ka Israēla vīri bija bēguši un ka Sauls ar saviem dēliem bija nomiris, tad tie atstāja tās pilsētas un bēga, un Fīlisti nāca un dzīvoja iekš tām.
When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 Un otrā dienā Fīlisti nāca, tos nokautos aplaupīt, un atrada Saulu un viņa trīs dēlus uz Ģilboas kalniem guļam.
On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 Un tie viņam nocirta galvu un novilka bruņas, un sūtīja pa Fīlistu zemi apkārt, ziņu dot savu elka dievu namos un pa tiem ļaudīm.
They cut off his head, stripped off his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols and to the people.
10 Un tie nolika viņa bruņas Astartes namā un viņa miesas tie pakāra BetŠanā pie mūra.
They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.
11 Kad nu Jabesas iedzīvotāji Gileādā dzirdēja, ko Fīlisti Saulam bija darījuši,
When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 Tad visi spēcīgie vīri cēlās un gāja cauru nakti un ņēma Saula miesas un viņa dēlu miesas no BetŠanas mūra, un tās veda uz Jabesu un tās tur sadedzināja,
all the valiant men arose, went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.
13 Un ņēma viņu kaulus un tos apraka apakš Jabesas kokiem un gavēja septiņas dienas.
They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
