Pirmā Samuela 31
1 Un Fīlisti karoja pret Israēli un Israēla vīri bēga no Fīlistiem un krita nokauti uz Ģilboas kalniem.
Now, as, the Philistines, were fighting against Israel, the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain, in Mount Gilboa.
2 Un Fīlisti lauzās uz Saulu un uz viņa dēliem, un nokāva Jonatānu un Abinadabu un Malķizuū, Saula dēlus.
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons, —and the Philistines smote Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchishua, 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.
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers discovered him, —and he was terrified at 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 said Saul to his armour-bearer—Draw thy sword and pierce me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come, and pierce me through, and abuse me. But his armour-bearer was not willing, for he was sore afraid. So Saul took his sword and fell thereon.
5 Kad nu viņa bruņu nesējs redzēja, ka Sauls bija miris, tad tas arīdzan metās savā zobenā un mira līdz ar viņu.
And, when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also, fell upon 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.
Thus died Saul, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, yea all his men, on that 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.
And, when the men of Israel who were across the vale, and who were across the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled, and the Philistines entered, and took up their abode therein.
8 Un otrā dienā Fīlisti nāca, tos nokautos aplaupīt, un atrada Saulu un viņa trīs dēlus uz Ģilboas kalniem guļam.
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul, and his three sons, lying prostrate in 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.
So they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, —and sent throughout the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and unto the people.
10 Un tie nolika viņa bruņas Astartes namā un viņa miesas tie pakāra BetŠanā pie mūra.
And they put his armour in a house of Ashtoreths, —and, his dead body, fastened they on the wall of Beth-shan.
11 Kad nu Jabesas iedzīvotāji Gileādā dzirdēja, ko Fīlisti Saulam bija darījuši,
And, when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him, what the Philistines had done unto 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,
then arose all the men of valour, and journeyed all the night, and took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, from the wall of Beth-shan, —and came to Jabesh, and burned them there;
13 Un ņēma viņu kaulus un tos apraka apakš Jabesas kokiem un gavēja septiņas dienas.
and took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk-tree in Jabesh, —and fasted seven days.
