Pirmā Samuela 31
1 Un Fīlisti karoja pret Israēli un Israēla vīri bēga no Fīlistiem un krita nokauti uz Ģilboas kalniem.
Meanwhile the Philistines had attacked Israel, and the Israelite army ran away from them, and many were killed on Mount Gilboa.
2 Un Fīlisti lauzās uz Saulu un uz viņa dēliem, un nokāva Jonatānu un Abinadabu un Malķizuū, Saula dēlus.
The Philistines chased down Saul and his sons, killing Saul's sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
3 Un tā kaušanās bija briesmīga pret Saulu, un strēlnieki to aizņēma ar saviem stopiem, un viņš tapa ļoti ievainots no tiem strēlniekiem.
The fighting became very intense around Saul, and the arrows of the Philistine archers found their target, wounding Saul very badly.
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.
Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Take your sword and kill me, or these heathen men will come and kill and torture me!” But the armor-bearer didn't want to do it because he was too afraid. So Saul took his own 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 also fell on his own sword and died with him.
6 Tā Sauls nomira un viņa trīs dēli un viņa bruņu nesējs un visi viņa vīri tai dienā kopā.
Saul, his three sons, his armor-bearer, and all the men with him, died the same day.
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 Israelites who lived along the valley and those on the other side of the Jordan realized that the Israelite army had run away, and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and they also ran away. So the Philistines came and took them over.
8 Un otrā dienā Fīlisti nāca, tos nokautos aplaupīt, un atrada Saulu un viņa trīs dēlus uz Ģilboas kalniem guļam.
The next day, when the Philistines went to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons lying 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 Saul's head, stripped him of his armor, and sent messengers throughout the country of the Philistines to announce the news in the temples of their idols and to their people.
10 Un tie nolika viņa bruņas Astartes namā un viņa miesas tie pakāra BetŠanā pie mūra.
They placed his armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths, and nailed his body to the town wall of Beth-shan.
11 Kad nu Jabesas iedzīvotāji Gileādā dzirdēja, ko Fīlisti Saulam bija darījuši,
However, when the people 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 their strong warriors set out, traveled all night, and took down the bodies of Saul and his sons from the wall of Beth-shan. When they got back to Jabesh, they burned the bodies there.
13 Un ņēma viņu kaulus un tos apraka apakš Jabesas kokiem un gavēja septiņas dienas.
Then they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted for seven days.
